CandelaCharts - Premium & Discount 📝 Overview
Premium and Discount are key concepts in ICT (Inner Circle Trader) trading strategies, used to pinpoint ideal entry and exit points in the market. These concepts are based on an understanding of market structure and the behavior of institutional traders, commonly referred to as Smart Money.
To understand the Premium and Discount zones, it's crucial to first grasp the concept of the equilibrium level, also known as the basic or fair value. The equilibrium represents the midpoint of a given price range and acts as a reference point, dividing the range into Premium and Discount zones.
The equilibrium reflects the "fair value" of the price within the considered range. Traders use this as a benchmark to assess whether the current price is in the Premium or Discount zone.
The Premium zone lies above the equilibrium level, while the Discount zone is located below it within the price range.

DM Support / Resistance (USA Session)This indicator is specifically designed for use on the 4-hour time frame and helps traders identify key support and resistance levels during the USA trading session (9:30 AM to 4:00 PM Eastern Time). The indicator calculates important price levels to assist in making well-informed entry and exit decisions, particularly for those focusing on swing trades or longer-term intraday strategies. It also includes a feature to skip setups when relevant fundamental news is scheduled, ensuring you avoid trading during periods of high volatility.
Key Features:
Support and Resistance Levels (S1 & R1):
The indicator calculates and displays Support 1 (S1) and Resistance 1 (R1) levels, which act as key barriers for price action and help traders spot potential reversal or breakout zones on the chart.
Pivot Point (PP):
The Pivot Point (PP) is calculated as the average of the previous period's high, low, and close. It serves as a central reference point for market direction, allowing traders to evaluate whether the market is in a bullish or bearish trend.
Market Bias:
The Bias is shown as a histogram that helps traders assess the strength of the market trend. A positive bias suggests bullish sentiment, while a negative bias signals bearish conditions. This can be used to confirm the overall trend direction.
4-Hour Time Frame:
The indicator is optimized for the 4-hour time frame, making it suitable for traders looking for swing trades or those who wish to capture longer-term trends within the USA session. The key support, resistance, and pivot levels are recalculated dynamically to reflect price action over 4-hour periods.
Dynamic Plotting and Alerts:
Support and resistance levels are drawn as dashed horizontal lines, updating in real-time to reflect the most current market data during the USA session. Alerts can be set for significant price movements crossing these levels.
Stop-Loss Strategy Based on 15-Minute Time Frame:
A unique feature of this indicator is its stop-loss strategy, which uses 15-minute time frame support and resistance levels. When a long or short entry is triggered on the 4-hour chart, traders should place their stop-loss according to the relevant 15-minute support or resistance level.
If the price closes above the 15-minute support for a long entry, or closes below the 15-minute resistance for a short entry, it signals the need to exit or adjust your position based on these levels.
Fundamental News Filter:
To avoid unnecessary risk, the indicator incorporates a fundamental news filter. If there is relevant news scheduled during the USA session, such as high-impact economic data or central bank announcements, the indicator will skip the setup for that period. This prevents traders from entering positions during times of elevated volatility caused by news events, which could result in unpredictable price movements.
How to Use:
Long Entry: When the Bias is positive and the price breaks above Support 1 (S1), this signals a potential bullish move. Consider entering a long position at this point.
Stop-Loss Strategy: Set your stop-loss at the respective 15-minute support level. If the price closes below this level, it could signal a reversal, prompting you to exit the trade.
Short Entry: When the Bias is negative and the price breaks below Resistance 1 (R1), this signals a potential bearish move. Enter a short position at this point.
Stop-Loss Strategy: Set your stop-loss at the respective 15-minute resistance level. If the price closes above this level, exit the short trade as it could indicate a bullish reversal.
Pivot Point (PP): The Pivot Point serves as a reference level to gauge potential price reversals. A move above the PP suggests a bullish bias, while trading below the PP suggests a bearish outlook.
Bias Histogram: The Bias Histogram helps confirm trend direction. A positive bias confirms long positions, while a negative bias reinforces short trades.
Avoid Trading During High-Impact News: If there is significant economic news or fundamental events scheduled during the USA session, the indicator will automatically skip any potential setup. This feature ensures you avoid entering trades that might be affected by unexpected news-driven volatility, keeping your trading strategy safer and more reliable.
Why Use This Indicator:
The 4-hour time frame is ideal for traders who prefer swing trading or those looking to capture longer-term trends in a structured manner. This indicator provides crucial insights into market direction, support/resistance levels, and potential entry/exit points.
The stop-loss management based on the 15-minute support and resistance levels helps traders protect their positions from sudden price reversals, ensuring more precise risk management.
The fundamental news filter is particularly useful for avoidance of high-risk periods. By skipping setups during high-impact news events, traders can avoid entering trades when price volatility could be unpredictable.
Overall, this indicator is a powerful tool for traders who want to make data-driven decisions based on technical analysis while ensuring that their positions are managed responsibly and avoiding news-driven risk.
Daily ProtractorDaily Protractor Indicator
Overview
The Daily Protractor is a visually intuitive tool designed for traders who want to analyze price action through angular measurements on a 5-minute chart. By overlaying a protractor on the chart, this indicator helps identify potential support, resistance, and trend directions based on angular relationships from the first 5-minute candle of each day. It’s particularly useful for intraday traders looking to incorporate geometric analysis into their strategies for spot or strike charts.
Key Features
Dynamic Protractor Overlay: Draws a protractor centered on the low of the first 5-minute candle of each day, with customizable radius in both bars (horizontal) and price units (vertical).
Angular Measurements: Displays angles in 5-degree increments, covering a full 360° circle or a 105° to -105° (91° to 269°) half-circle, depending on user preference.
Customizable Display:
Adjust the number of days to display protractors (up to 5 days).
Customize line colors for different angle ranges (0° to 180°, 180° to 360°, and 0° specifically).
Modify line thickness, label size, and label colors for better visibility.
Center Point Highlight: Marks the center of each protractor with a labeled point for easy reference.
Efficient Design:
Optimized with max_lines_count, max_labels_count, and max_bars_back to ensure smooth performance on TradingView.
How It Works
The indicator identifies the first 5-minute candle of each day and uses its low price as the center point for a protractor. It then draws lines at 5-degree intervals, radiating from the center, with each line representing an angle from 0° to 360°. Labels at the end of each line display the angle in degrees, with negative values shown for angles between 195° and 345° (e.g., 270° is displayed as -90°). The protractor’s radius can be adjusted in both time (bars) and price units, allowing traders to scale the tool to their chart’s characteristics.
Usage Instructions
Add to Chart:
Apply the indicator to a 5-minute chart of your chosen instrument (e.g., spot or strike charts).
Interpret the Protractor:
Use the angular lines to identify potential price levels or trend directions.
The 0° line (horizontal) can act as a reference for horizontal support/resistance.
Angles between 0° and 180° (upper half) and 180° and 360° (lower half) are color-coded for quick identification.
Customize Settings:
Toggle the Show 105° to -105° option to display a half-circle (91° to 269°) instead of a full 360° protractor.
Adjust the Radius in Bars and Radius in Price Units to scale the protractor to your chart.
Set the Maximum Days to Display to control how many daily protractors are shown.
Modify line thickness, colors, and label settings to suit your visual preferences.
Customization Options
Protractor Settings:
Show 105° to -105° (91° to 269°): Toggle between a full circle or a half-circle protractor.
Radius in Bars: Set the horizontal span of the protractor (default: 75 bars).
Radius in Price Units: Set the vertical span in price units (default: 1000.0).
Maximum Days to Display: Limit the number of protractors shown (default: 5 days).
Line Settings:
Line Thickness: Adjust the thickness of the protractor lines (1 or 2).
Line Color (0° to 180°): Color for the upper half (default: light blue).
Line Color (180° to 360°): Color for the lower half (default: light red).
Line Color (0°): Color for the 0° line (default: black).
Label Settings:
Label Size: Choose between small, normal, or large labels.
Label Color (0° to 180°): Color for labels in the upper half (default: red).
Label Color (180° to 360°): Color for labels in the lower half (default: green).
Notes
The indicator was designed with the help of Grok3 for use on 5-minute charts only, as it relies on the first 5-minute candle of the day to set the protractor’s center.
For best results, adjust the radius settings to match the volatility and price scale of your instrument. However, where the price is in single digits it is advised to switch off the labels or I would suggest not to use the same.
The protractor can be used alongside other technical tools to confirm trends, reversals, or key price levels.
Limitations: This cannot be used on instruments that trade for more than 75 candles with a timeframe of 5 minutes as the angles would not cover the entire trading window. I am working coming up with a script to address this limitation.

RSI Support & Resistance Breakouts with OrderblocksThis tool is an overly simplified method of finding market squeeze and breakout completely based on a dynamic RSI calculation. It is designed to draw out areas of price levels where the market is pushing back against price action leaving behind instances of short term support and resistance levels you otherwise wouldn't see with the common RSI.
It uses the changes in market momentum to determine support and resistance levels in real time while offering price zone where order blocks exist in the short term.
In ranging markets we need to know a couple things.
1. External Zone - It's important to know where the highs and lows were left behind as they hold liquidity. Here you will have later price swings and more false breakouts.
2. Internal Zone - It's important to know where the highest and lowest closing values were so we can see the limitations of that squeeze. Here you will find the stronger cluster of orders often seen as orderblocks.
In this tool I've added a 200 period Smoothed Moving Average as a trend filter which causes the RSI calculation to change dynamically.
Regular Zones - without extending
The Zones draw out automatically but are often too small to work with.
To solve this problem, you can extend the zones into the future up to 40 bars.
This allows for more visibility against future price action.
--------------------------------------------
Two Types of Zones
External Zones - These zones give you positioning of the highest and lowest price traded within the ranging market. This is where liquidity will be swept and often is an ultimate breaking point for new price swings.
How to use them :
External Zones - External zones form at the top of a pullback. After this price should move back into its impulsive wave.
During the next corrective way, if price breaches the top of the previous External Zone, this is a sign of trend weakness. Expect a divergence and trend reversal.
Internal Zones - (OrderBlocks) Current price will move in relation to previous internal zones. The internal zone is where a majority of price action and trading took place. It's a stronger SQUEEZE area. Current price action will often have a hard time closing beyond the previous Internal Zones high or low. You can expect these zones to show you where the market will flip over. In these same internal zones you'll find large rejection candles.
**Important Note** Size Doesn't Matter
The size of the internal zone does not matter. It can be very small and still very powerful.
Once an internal zone has been hit a few times, its often not relevant any longer.
Order Block Zone Examples
In this image you can see the Internal Zone that was untouched had a STRONG price reaction later on.
Internal Zones that were touched multiple times had weak reactions later as price respected them less over time.
Zone Overlay Breakdown
The Zones form and update in real time until momentum has picked up and price begins to trend. However it leaves behind the elements of the inducement area and all the key levels you need to know about for future price action.
Resistance Fakeout : Later on after the zone has formed, price will return to this upper zone of price levels and cause fakeouts. A close above this zone implies the market moves long again.
Midline Equilibrium : This is simply the center of the strongest traded area. We can call this the Point of Control within the orderblock. If price expands through both extremes of this zone multiple times in the future, it eliminates the orderblock.
Support Fakeout : Just like its opposing brother, price will wick through this zone and rip back causing inducement to trap traders. You would need a clear close below this zone to be in a bearish trend.
BARCOLOR or Candle Color: (Optional)
Bars are colored under three conditions
Bullish Color = A confirmed bullish breakout of the range.
Bearish Color = A confirmed bearish breakout of the range.
Squeeze Color = Even if no box is formed a candle or candles can have a squeeze color. This means the ranging market happened within the high and low of that singular candle.

TQ's Support & Resistance(My goal creating this indicator): Provide a way to categorize and label key structures on multiple different levels so I can create a plan based on those observable facts.
The Underlying Concept / What is Momentum?
Momentum indicates transaction pressure. If the algorithm detects price is going up, that would be considered positive momentum. If the algorithm detects price is going down negative momentum would be detected.
The Momentum shown is derived from a price action pattern. Unlike my previous Support & Resistance indicator that used Super Trend, this indicator uses a unique pattern I created. On the first bar bearish momentum is detected a resistance Level is made at the highest point of the previous bullish condition. On the first bar bullish momentum is detected a support Level is made at the lowest point of the previous bearish condition. This happens on 5 different Momentum Levels, (short-term to long-term). I currently use this pattern to trade so the source code is protected.
What is Severity?
Severity is How we differentiate the importance of different Highs and Lows. If Momentum is detected on a higher level the Supply or Demand Level is updated. The Color and Size representing that Level will be shown. Demand and Supply Levels made by higher levels are more SEVERE than a demand level made by a lower level.
Technical Inputs
- to ensure the correct calculation of Support and Resistance levels change BAR_INDEX. BAR_INDEX creates a buffer at the start of the chart. For example: If you set BAR_INDEX to 300. The script will wait for 300 bars to elapse on the current chart before running. This allows the script more time to gather data. Which is needed in order for our dynamic lookback length to never return an error (Dynamic lookback length can't be negative or zero). The lower the timeframe the greater the number of bars need. For Example, if I open up a 1min chart I would enter 5000 as my BAR_INDEX since that will provide enough data to ensure the correct calculation of Support and Resistance levels. If I was on a daily chart, I would enter a lower number such as 800. Don't be afraid to play around with this.
- Toggle options (Close) or (High & Low) creates Support and Resistance Levels using the Lowest close and Highest close or using the Lowest low and Highest high.

Autofib Extensions | DTDHello trader comuunity!
I'm introducing another script that is part of my main day-trading strategy. We all know regardless of what strategy we use, we need to know what levels offer the least amount of risk to our trade entry and a great tool to anticipate how far a move might go or what level a move may retrace to are the Fibonacci Retracement and Extensions. This indicator combines both together, but with a twist.
The main elements of the script are:
1. Multiple Session High and Lows | Developing my first script led me to understand that measuring key times during each session provides understanding of the market's continuity. I have provided 3 "sessions' a user can define according to CST time where the script saves the high and low of that session window to produce the retracement and extensions from those plots. Currently, the levels are always plotted from low to high (with the 0 mark being the high) and negative values provided so the levels are consistent. You can toggle each session on or off.
2. Coloring Key Retracements / Extensions | I use a dark background for my charts so the default colors help me distinguish from other another indicator I use. Feel free to adjust the colors to your preference. I consider 3 different colors because of their significance. Retracements that you want to see continue fall back into the .50 to .618 level (this I consider the "Golden Zone"). While basic Elliott Wave Theory states a wave is completed near the 1.618 level (this I consider "Major Extensions"). Everything isn't noise, but minor levels in a larger sequence.
______________
Script Limitations
All of my scripts are made with the help of ChatGPT so there are going to be limitations. One current one that I have made progress on, but not fully is when you are viewing a timeframe where the candle doesn't start when a session window starts. On smaller timeframes like the 7-minute this is not an issue. However, on the hourly, if your session window starts at the half hour which the 3rd session default window does, the lines will not produce. I will hopefully have this rectified in the near future. I will open the script since none of this work is original in nature and I would love to see how others can create a better product. Also, this is mainly a futures trading tool. If you are using this on stocks you will find it not as useful if the session window is too wide since the script waits until the session window closes to calculate the extension values.
Cheers,
DTD

BIN Based Support and Resistance [SS]This indicator presents a version of an alternative way to determine support and resistance, using a method called "Bins".
Bins provide for a flexible and interesting way to determine support and resistance levels.
First off, let's discuss BINS:
Bins are ranges or containers into which your data points can be sorted. For example, if you're grouping ages, you might have bins like 0–18, 19–35, 36–50, and 51+. Any data point within these intervals gets placed in the corresponding bin.
Binning simplifies complex data sets by grouping values into categories. This is useful for such things as
Visualizing data in histograms or bar charts.
Reducing noise and highlighting trends.
This indicator groups the price action into 10 separate bins. It determines the Support / Resistance level by averaging the values in the Bins to find an iteration of the "central tendency" or average reoccurring value.
Pros and Cons
Since this is a different approach to support and resistance, I think its important to highlight some of the pros and advantages, but also be open about the cons.
First off the PROS
Bin Based Support and Resistance Levels dynamically adjust to ranges as opposed to hard / fast peaks and valleys. This makes them better at analyzing price action vs simply drawing lines at random peaks and valleys.
Because Bins are analyzing ALL PA within a period's max and min range, Bin Support and Resistance can actually be used similar to Volume profile, where you are able to identify a pseudo-POC, or areas where price tends to consolidate. Take a look at this example on SPY:
You can see these 2 SR lines are close together. This represents that this general price range is an area where price likes to accumulate/consolidate. You can see the SPY ended up coming back to this range and consolidating there for a bit.
This is a strength of using a BIN based approach to calculating support and resistance, because as indicated before, it looks at price action vs peaks and valleys.
As a tip, these areas are areas you want to wait for a break in one direction or the other.
The indicator provides for backtest results of the support and resistance lines, to see how many times certain areas acted as resistance or support. Because this is analyzing and distributing PA evenly throughout the period's max and min, the indicator can tell you which areas tend to have higher rejection zones and which have higher support zones.
Now the CONS
Because bin based SR take an average approach, the SR lines can sometimes be slightly broken before the ticker finds rejection:
To combat this, make sure there is confirmed support. How the indicator actually backtests these lines is by waiting to see if the ticker has 3 consecutive closes above the support line or below the resistance line. So these are things to be mindful of.
It doesn't consider pivots. Most support and resistance indicators either identify max and min peaks and valleys or use pivot points. Pivot points are a great way to identify peaks and valleys and thus by extension support and resistance. However, this is also somewhat of a strength, as using BINS forces the indicator to consider ALL price action and not just the extremes (highs and lows).
Can be slightly skewed in highly volatile environments. Any time there is a massive drop or rally, it can skew the indicator to give extreme ranges to both ends. For example, the Tariff news collapse on ES1!:
Owning to limitations in lookback length, sometimes the min and max range can be exceeded and other traditional areas of support / resistance is where a ticker will find support.
Using the indicator
Here are some basic use/functionalities of the indicator:
Selecting display of backtest results: You can select to have the backtest results shown in a table:
Or directly on the lines:
Inversely, you can toggle them off completely:
You can modify the lookback length. The suggested lookback length is between 250 to 500 candles on smaller timeframes. I also suggest 252 on daily timeframes (which represents 1 trading year).
And that's the indicator!
It is very easy to use, so you should pick it up in no time!
Enjoy and as always, 🚀🚀 safe trades! 🚀🚀
Cz ASR indicatorAverage session range indicator built by me. Great tool to gauge volatility and intraday reversal zones. Great for FX as there is an included table that shows range in pips; however, this can be applied across all assets as a volatility measure.
How it works:
The script measures the range of sessions, including Asia, London, and New York. The lookback period could be adjusted so you can find what length works best and is most accurate. This is then averaged out to provide the ASR. This provides us with an upper and lower bound of which the price could potentially fluctuate in based on the past session ranges. I have also added the 50% ASR, which is also a super useful metric for reversals or continuations.
There is also a configurable UTC so that you can adjust the indicator so it can accurately measure the range within certain sessions.
Note - different session start and stop times vary from market to market. I have set the code to the standard forex market opens however, if you wish to change the time ,you are able to do so by editing the variables in the script
Enjoy :)
Multi-Timeframe MA DashboardThis indicator monitors 5 timeframes: 5min, 15min, 1hr, 4hr, and Daily. It displays fast and slow moving averages for each timeframe, along with the current price. The trend direction is color-coded: green for bullish (fast MA above slow MA) and red for bearish (fast MA below slow MA).
The dashboard also shows the last crossover signal (Buy/Sell) for each timeframe.
Visual arrows are plotted on the chart for the current timeframe. A green up arrow indicates a potential bullish crossover (Buy signal), while a red down arrow indicates a potential bearish crossover (Sell signal).
The dashboard is elegant and professional, with alternating row colors for better readability. It can be placed in any corner of the screen and customized with user-defined colors for bullish and bearish trends.

Smarter Money Concepts - FVGs [PhenLabs]📊 Smarter Money Concepts - FVGs
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
Smarter Money Concepts - FVGs is a sophisticated indicator designed to identify and track Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) in price action. These gaps represent market inefficiencies where price moves quickly, creating imbalances that often attract subsequent price action for mitigation. By highlighting these key areas, traders can identify potential zones for reversals, continuations, and price targets.
The indicator employs volume filtering ideology to highlight only the most significant FVGs, reducing noise and focusing on gaps formed during periods of higher relative volume. This combination of price structure analysis and volume confirmation provides traders with high-probability areas of interest that institutional smart money may target during future price movements.
🚀 Points of Innovation
Volume-Filtered Gap Detection : Eliminates low-significance FVGs by requiring a minimum volume threshold, focusing only on gaps formed with institutional participation
Equilibrium Line Visualization : Displays the midpoint of each gap as a potential precision target for trades
Automated Gap Mitigation Tracking : Monitors when price revisits and mitigates gaps, automatically managing visual elements
Time-Based Gap Management : Intelligently filters gaps based on a configurable timeframe, maintaining chart clarity
Dual Direction Analysis : Simultaneously tracks both bullish and bearish gaps, providing a complete market structure view
Memory-Optimized Design : Implements efficient memory management for smooth chart performance even with numerous FVGs
🔧 Core Components
Fair Value Gap Detection : Identifies price inefficiencies where the current candle’s low is higher than the previous candle’s high (bearish FVG) or where the current candle’s high is lower than the previous candle’s low (bullish FVG).
Volume Filtering Mechanism : Calculates relative volume compared to a moving average to qualify only gaps formed during significant market activity.
Mitigation Tracking : Continuously monitors price action to detect when gaps get filled, with options to either hide or maintain visual representation of mitigated gaps.
🔥 Key Features
Customizable Gap Display : Toggle visibility of bullish and bearish gaps independently to focus on your preferred market direction
Volume Threshold Control : Adjust the minimum volume ratio required for gap qualification, allowing fine-tuning between sensitivity and significance
Flexible Mitigation Methods : Choose between “Wick” or “Close” methods for determining when a gap has been mitigated, adapting to different trading styles
Visual Customization : Full control over colors, transparency, and style of gap boxes and equilibrium lines
🎨 Visualization
Gap Boxes : Rectangular highlights showing the exact price range of each Fair Value Gap. Bullish gaps indicate potential upward price targets, while bearish gaps show potential downward targets.
Equilibrium Lines : Dotted lines running through the center of each gap, representing the mathematical midpoint that often serves as a precision target for price movement.
📖 Usage Guidelines
General Settings
Days to Analyze : Default: 15, Range: 1-100. Controls how many days of historical gaps to display, balancing between comprehensive analysis and chart clarity
Visual Settings
Bull Color : Default:(#596fd33f). Color for bullish Fair Value Gaps, typically using high transparency for clear chart visibility
Bear Color : Default:(#d3454575). Color for bearish Fair Value Gaps, typically using high transparency for clear chart visibility
Equilibrium Line : Default: Enabled. Toggles visibility of the center equilibrium line for each FVG
Eq. Line Color : Default: Black with 99% transparency. Sets the color of equilibrium lines, usually kept subtle to avoid chart clutter
Eq. Line Style : Default: Dotted, Options: Dotted, Solid, Dashed. Determines the line style for equilibrium lines
Mitigation Settings
Mitigation Method : Default: Wick, Options: Wick, Close. Determines how gap mitigation is calculated - “Wick” uses high/low values while “Close” uses open/close values for more conservative mitigation criteria
Hide Mitigated : Default: Enabled. When enabled, gaps become transparent once mitigated, reducing visual clutter while maintaining historical context
Volume Filter
Volume Filter : Default: Enabled. When enabled, only shows gaps formed with significant volume relative to recent average
Min Ratio : Default: 1.5, Range: 0.1-10.0. Minimum volume ratio compared to average required to display an FVG; higher values filter out more gaps
Periods : Default: 15, Range: 5-50. Number of periods used to calculate the average volume baseline
✅ Best Use Cases
Identifying potential reversal zones where price may react after extended moves
Finding precise targets for take-profit placement in trend-following strategies
Detecting institutional interest areas for potential breakout or breakdown confirmations
Plotting significant support and resistance zones based on structural imbalances
Developing fade strategies at key market structure points
Confirming trade entries when price approaches significant unfilled gaps
⚠️ Limitations
Works best on higher timeframes where gaps reflect more significant market inefficiencies
Very choppy or ranging markets may produce small gaps with limited predictive value
Volume filtering depends on accurate volume data, which may be less reliable for some symbols
Performance may be affected when displaying a very large number of historical gaps
Some gaps may never be fully mitigated, particularly in strongly trending markets
💡 What Makes This Unique
Volume Intelligence : Unlike basic FVG indicators, this script incorporates volume analysis to identify the most significant structural imbalances, focusing on quality over quantity.
Visual Clarity Management : Automatic handling of mitigated gaps and memory management ensures your chart remains clean and informative even over extended analysis periods.
Dual-Direction Comprehensive Analysis : Simultaneously tracks both bullish and bearish gaps, providing a complete market structure picture rather than forcing a directional bias.
🔬 How It Works
1. Gap Detection Process :
The indicator examines each candle in relation to previous candles, identifying when a gap forms between the low of candle and high of candle (bearish FVG) or between the high of candle and low of candle (bullish FVG). This specific candle relationship identifies true structural imbalances.
2. Volume Qualification :
For each potential gap, the algorithm calculates the relative volume compared to the configured period average. Only gaps formed with volume exceeding the minimum ratio threshold are displayed, ensuring focus on institutionally significant imbalances.
3. Equilibrium Calculation :
For each qualified gap, the script calculates the precise mathematical midpoint, which becomes the equilibrium line - a key target that price often gravitates toward during mitigation attempts.
4. Mitigation Tracking :
The indicator continuously monitors price action against existing gaps, determining mitigation based on the selected method (wick or close). When price reaches the equilibrium point, the gap is considered mitigated and can be visually updated accordingly.
💡 Note:
Fair Value Gaps represent market inefficiencies that often, but not always, get filled. Use this indicator as part of a complete trading strategy rather than as a standalone system. The most valuable signals typically come from combining FVG analysis with other confirmatory indicators and overall market context. For optimal results, start with the default settings and gradually adjust parameters to match your specific trading timeframe and style.
Opal Title: Opal Lines
Short Title: Opal Lines
Description:
Opal Lines is a dynamic overlay indicator that plots horizontal price levels at the open of key market sessions throughout the trading day, based on Eastern Time (ET). Designed for traders who rely on session-based price action, it marks significant intraday events such as the European Open (3:00 AM ET), Gold Open (8:20 AM ET), Regular Market Open (9:30 AM ET), and Globex Open (6:00 PM ET), among others. Each line is color-coded and toggleable via inputs, allowing users to customize which sessions they want to track.
Unlike generic time-based tools, Opal Lines captures the opening price at precise minute intervals and extends these levels across the chart until the daily reset at 5:00 PM ET (except for the Globex line, which persists into the next day). This makes it ideal for identifying support/resistance zones, breakout levels, or reference points tied to major market openings. Traders can use it across forex, futures, equities, or commodities to align their strategies with global session dynamics.
Key Features:
Seven toggleable session lines with distinct colors for easy identification.
Time-specific logic using ET, adaptable to any chart timeframe.
Persistent lines that reset daily, with Globex extending overnight.
Lightweight and overlay-friendly, preserving chart clarity.
How to Use:
Add the indicator to your chart and enable the sessions relevant to your trading style. Watch for price interactions with these levels—e.g., bounces, breaks, or retests—especially during high-volume periods. Combine with other tools like volume or oscillators for confirmation.
Note: Ensure your chart’s timezone is set to “America/New_York” (ET) for accurate alignment.
Linear Regression Volume Profile [ChartPrime]LR VolumeProfile
This indicator combines a Linear Regression channel with a dynamic volume profile, giving traders a powerful way to visualize both directional price movement and volume concentration along the trend.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Linear Regression Channel: Draws a statistically fitted channel to track the market trend over a defined period.
Volume Profile Overlay: Splits the channel into multiple horizontal levels and calculates volume traded within each level.
Percentage-Based Labels: Displays each level's share of total volume as a percentage, offering a clean way to see high and low volume zones.
Gradient Bars: Profile bars are colored using a gradient scale from yellow (low volume) to red (high volume), making it easy to identify key interest areas.
Adjustable Profile Width and Resolution: Users can change the width of profile bars and spacing between levels.
Channel Direction Indicator: An arrow inside a floating label shows the direction (up or down) of the current linear regression slope.
Level Style Customization: Choose from solid, dashed, or dotted lines for visual preference.
⯁ HOW TO USE
Use the Linear Regression channel to determine the dominant price trend direction.
Analyze the volume bars to spot key levels where the majority of volume was traded—these act as potential support/resistance zones.
Pay attention to the largest profile bars—these often mark zones of institutional interest or price consolidation.
The arrow label helps quickly assess whether the trend is upward or downward.
Combine this tool with price action or momentum indicators to build high-confidence trading setups.
⯁ CONCLUSION
LR Volume Profile is a precision tool for traders who want to merge trend analysis with volume insight. By integrating linear regression trendlines with a clean and readable volume distribution, this indicator helps traders find price levels that matter the most—backed by volume, trend, and structure. Whether you're spotting high-volume nodes or gauging directional flow, this toolkit elevates your decision-making process with clarity and depth.
Psych Level ScreenerThis Script is intended for Pine Screener and is not designed as a indicator!!!
Pine Screener is something TradingView has recently added and is still only a Beta version.
Pine Screener itself is currently only available to members that are Premium and above.
What it does:
This screener will actively look for tickers that are close to Pysch level in your watchlist.
Psych level here refers to price levels that are round numbers such as 50,100,1000.
Users can specify the offset from a psych level (in %) and scanner will scan for tickers that are within the offset. For example if offset is set at 5% then it will scan for tickers that are within +/-5% of a ticker. (for $100 psych level it will scan for ticker in $95-105 range)
Once scan is completed you will be able to see:
- Current price of ticker
- Closest psych level for that ticker
- % and $ move required for it to hit that psych level
- Ticker's day range and Average range (with % of average range completed for the day)
- Ticker volume and average volume
Setting up:
www.tradingview.com
Above link will help you guide how to setup Pine screener.
Use steps below to guide you the setup for this specific screener:
1. Open Pine Screener (open new tab, select screener the "Pine")
2. At the top, click on "Choose Indicator" and select "Psych Level Screener"
3. At the top again, click "Indicator Psych Level Screener" and select settings.

b) ATR length is number of previous trading days you want to include in your calculation. Moving Average Type is calculation method.
c) Rvol length is number of previous trading days you want to include in your calculation.
5. On top left, click "Price within specified offset of Psych. Level" and select true. Then select "Scan" which is located at the top next to "Indicator Psych Level Screener". This will filter out all the stock that meets the condition.
6. At the end of the column on the right there is a "+" symbol. From there you can add/remove columns. 30min/1hr/4hr/1D Trend are disabled by default so if this is needed please enable them.
7. You can change the order of ticker by ascending and descending order of each column label if needed. Just click on the arrow that comes up when you move the cursor to any of the column items.
8. You can specify advanced filter settings based on the variables in the column. (e.g., set price range of stock to filter out further) To do so, click on the column variable name in interest, located above the screener table (or right below "scan") and select "manual setup".
How to read the column:
Current Price: Shows current price of the ticker when scan was done. Currently Pine Screener does NOT support pre/post-hours data so no PM and AH price.
Psych Level: Psych level the current price is near to.
% to Psych Level: Price movement in % necessary to get to the Psych level.
$ to Psych Level: Price movement in $ necessary to get to the Psych level.
DTR: Daily True Range of the stock. i.e. High - Low of the ticker on the day.
ATR: Average True Range of stock in the last x days, where x is a value selected in the setting. (See step 3 in Previous section)
DTR vs ATR: Amount of DTR a ticker has done in % with respect to ATR. (e.g., 90% means DTR is 90% of ATR)
Vol.: Volume of a ticker for the day. Currently Pine Screener does NOT support pre/post-hours data so no PM and AH volume.
Avg. Vol: Average volume of a ticker in the last x days, where x is a value selected in the setting. (See step 3 in Previous section)
Rvol: Relative volume in percentage, measured by the ratio of day's volume and average volume.
30min/1hr/4hr/1D Trend: Trend status to see if the chart is Bullish or Bearish on each of the time frame. Bullishness or Bearishness is defined by the price being over or under the 34/50 cloud on each of the time frame. Output of 1 is Bullish, -1 is Bearish. 0 means price is sitting inside the 34/50 cloud. Currently Pine Screener does NOT support pre/post-hours data so 34/50 cloud is based on regular trading hours data ONLY.

Auto TrendLines [TradingFinder] Support Resistance Signal Alerts🔵 Introduction
The trendline is one of the most essential tools in technical analysis, widely used in financial markets such as Forex, cryptocurrency, and stocks. A trendline is a straight line that connects swing highs or swing lows and visually indicates the market’s trend direction.
Traders use trendlines to identify price structure, the strength of buyers and sellers, dynamic support and resistance zones, and optimal entry and exit points.
In technical analysis, trendlines are typically classified into three categories: uptrend lines (drawn by connecting higher lows), downtrend lines (formed by connecting lower highs), and sideways trends (moving horizontally). A valid trendline usually requires at least three confirmed touchpoints to be considered reliable for trading decisions.
Trendlines can serve as the foundation for a variety of trading strategies, such as the trendline bounce strategy, valid breakout setups, and confluence-based analysis with other tools like candlestick patterns, divergences, moving averages, and Fibonacci levels.
Additionally, trendlines are categorized into internal and external, and further into major and minor levels, each serving unique roles in market structure analysis.
🔵 How to Use
Trendlines are a key component in technical analysis, used to identify market direction, define dynamic support and resistance zones, highlight strategic entry and exit points, and manage risk. For a trendline to be reliable, it must be drawn based on structural principles—not by simply connecting two arbitrary points.
🟣 Selecting Pivot Types Based on Trend Direction
The first step is to determine the market trend: uptrend, downtrend, or sideways.
Then, choose pivot points that match the trend type :
In an uptrend, trendlines are drawn by connecting low pivots, especially higher lows.
In a downtrend, trendlines are formed by connecting high pivots, specifically lower highs.
It is crucial to connect pivots of the same type and structure to ensure the trendline is valid and analytically sound.
🟣 Pivot Classification
This indicator automatically classifies pivot points into two categories :
Major Pivots :
MLL : Major Lower Low
MHL : Major Higher Low
MHH : Major Higher High
MLH : Major Lower High
These define the primary structure of the market and are typically used in broader structural analysis.
Minor Pivots :
mLL: minor Lower Low
mHL: minor Higher Low
mHH: minor Higher High
mLH: minor Lower High
These are used for drawing more precise trendlines within corrective waves or internal price movements.
Example : In a downtrend, drawing a trendline from an MHH to an mHH creates structural inconsistency and introduces noise. Instead, connect points like MHL to MHL or mLH to mLH for a valid trendline.
🟣 Drawing High-Precision Trendlines
To ensure a reliable trendline :
Use pivots of the same classification (Major with Major or Minor with Minor).
Ensure at least three valid contact points (three touches = structural confirmation).
Draw through candles with the least deviation (choose wicks or bodies based on confluence).
Preferably draw from right to left for better alignment with current market behavior.
Use parallel lines to turn a single trendline into a trendline zone, if needed.
🟣 Using Trendlines for Trade Entries
Bounce Entry: When price approaches the trendline and shows signs of reversal (e.g., a reversal candle, divergence, or support/resistance), enter in the direction of the trend with a logical stop-loss.
Breakout Entry: When price breaks through the trendline with strong momentum and a confirmation (such as a retest or break of structure), consider trading in the direction of the breakout.
🟣 Trendline-Based Risk Management
For bounce entries, the stop-loss is placed below the trendline or the last pivot low (in an uptrend).
For breakout entries, the stop-loss is set behind the breakout candle or the last structural level.
A broken trendline can also act as an exit signal from a trade.
🟣 Combining Trendlines with Other Tools (Confluence)
Trendlines gain much more strength when used alongside other analytical tools :
Horizontal support and resistance levels
Moving averages (such as EMA 50 or EMA 200)
Fibonacci retracement zones
Candlestick patterns (e.g., Engulfing, Pin Bar)
RSI or MACD divergences
Market structure breaks (BoS / ChoCH)
🔵 Settings
Pivot Period : This defines how sensitive the pivot detection is. A higher number means the algorithm will identify more significant pivot points, resulting in longer-term trendlines.
Alerts
Alert :
Enable or disable the entire alert system
Set a custom alert name
Choose how often alerts trigger (every time, once per bar, or on bar close)
Select the time zone for alert timestamps (e.g., UTC)
Each trendline type supports two alert types :
Break Alert : Triggered when price breaks the trendline
React Alert : Triggered when price reacts or bounces off the trendline
These alerts can be independently enabled or disabled for all trendline categories (Major/Minor, Internal/External, Up/Down).
Display :
For each of the eight trendline types, you can control :
Whether to show or hide the line
Whether to delete the previous line when a new one is drawn
Color, line style (solid, dashed, dotted), extension direction (e.g., right only), and width
Major lines are typically thicker and more opaque, while minor lines appear thinner and more transparent.
All settings are designed to give the user full control over the appearance, behavior, and alert system of the indicator, without requiring manual drawing or adjustments.
🔵 Conclusion
A trendline is more than just a line on the chart—it is a structural, strategic, and flexible tool in technical analysis that can serve as the foundation for understanding price behavior and making trading decisions. Whether in trending markets or during corrections, trendlines help traders identify market direction, key zones, and high-potential entry and exit points with precision.
The accuracy and effectiveness of a trendline depend on using structurally valid pivot points and adhering to proper market logic, rather than relying on guesswork or personal bias.
This indicator is built to solve that exact problem. It automatically detects and draws multiple types of trendlines based on actual price structure, separating them into Major/Minor and Internal/External categories, and respecting professional analytical principles such as pivot type, trend direction, and structural location.
