Super MTF Clouds (4x3 Pairs)Overview:
This script is based on Ripster's MTF clouds, which transcends the standard moving average cloud indicator by offering a powerful and deeply customizable Multi-Timeframe (MTF) analysis. Instead of being limited to the moving averages of your current charts from the current timeframe, this tool allows you to project and visualize the trend and key support/resistance zones from up to 4 different timeframes simultaneously. User can input up to 6 different EMA values which will form 3 pairs of EMA clouds, for each of the timeframes.
The primary purpose is to provide traders with immediate confluence. By observing how price interacts with moving average clouds from higher timeframes (e.g., Hourly, Daily, Weekly), you can make more informed decisions on your active trading timeframe (e.g., 10 Minute). It's designed as a complete MTF Cloud toolkit, allowing you to display all necessary MTFs in a single script to build a comprehensive view of the market structure without having to flick to different timeframe to look for cloud positions.
Key features:
Four Independent Multi-Timeframe Slots: Each slot can be assigned any timeframe available on TradingView (e.g., D, W, M, 4H).
Three MA Pairs Per Timeframe: For each timeframe, configure up to three separate MA clouds (e.g., a 9/12 EMA pair, a 20/50 EMA pair, and a 100/200 SMA pair).
Complete Customisation: For every single moving average (24 in total), you can independently control:
MA Type: Choose between EMA or SMA.
Length: Any period you require.
Line Color: Full colour selection.
Line Thickness: Adjust the visual weight of each line.
Cloud Control: For every pair (12 in total), you can set the fill colour and transparency.
How To Use This Script:
This tool is best used for confirmation and context. Here are some practical strategies that one can adopt:
Trend Confluence: Before taking a trade based on a signal on your current timeframe, glance at the higher timeframe clouds. If you see a buy signal on the 15-minute chart and the price is currently trading above a thick, bullish Daily cloud, the probability of that trade succeeding is significantly higher. Conversely, shorting into strong HTF support is a low-probability trade.
Dynamic Support & Resistance: The edges of the higher timeframe clouds often act as powerful, dynamic levels of support and resistance. A pullback to the 4-Hour 50 EMA on your 15-minute chart can be a prime area to look for entries in the direction of the larger trend.
Gauging Market Regimes: Use the toggles in the settings to quickly switch between different views. You can have a "risk-on" view with short-term clouds and a "macro" view with weekly and monthly clouds. This helps you adapt your trading style to the current market conditions.
Key Settings:
1. Global Setting
Source For All MAs: This determines the price data point used for every single moving average calculation.
Default: hl2 (an average of the High and Low of each bar). This gives a smooth midpoint price.
Options: You can change this to Close (the most common method), Open, High, Low, or ohlc4 (an average of the open, high, low, and close), among others.
Recommendation: For most standard trend analysis, the default hl2 is the common choice.
2. The Timeframe Group Structure
The rest of the settings are organized into four identical, collapsible groups: "Timeframe 1 Settings" through "Timeframe 4 Settings". Each group acts as a self-contained control panel for one multi-timeframe view.
Within each timeframe group, you have two master controls:
Enable Timeframe: This is the main power switch for the entire group. Uncheck this box to instantly hide all three clouds and lines associated with this timeframe. This is perfect for quickly decluttering your chart or focusing on a different set of analyses.
Timeframe: This dropdown menu is the heart of the MTF feature. Here, you select the higher timeframe you want to analyse (e.g., 1D for Daily, 1W for Weekly, 4H for 4-Hour). All calculations for the three pairs within this group will be based on the timeframe you select here.
3. Pair-Specific Controls
Inside each timeframe group, there are three sections for "Pair 1", "Pair 2", and "Pair 3". These control each individual moving average cloud.
Enable Pair: Just like the master switch for the timeframe, this checkbox turns a single cloud and its two MA lines on or off.
For each pair, the settings are further broken down:
Moving Average Lines (A and B): These two rows control the two moving averages that form the cloud. 'A' is typically used for the shorter-period MA and 'B' for the longer-period one.
Type (A/B): A dropdown menu to select either EMA (Exponential Moving Average) or SMA (Simple Moving Average). EMAs react more quickly to recent price changes, while SMAs are smoother and react more slowly.
Length (A/B): The lookback period for the moving average (e.g., 21, 50, 200).
Color (A/B): Sets the specific colour of the MA line itself on your chart.
Cloud Fill Settings
Fill Color: This controls the colour of the shaded area (the "cloud") between the two moving average lines. For a consistent look, you can set this to the same colour as your shorter MA line.
Transparency: Controls how see-through the cloud is, on a scale of 0 to 100. 0 is a solid, opaque colour, while 100 is completely invisible. The default of 85 provides a light, "cloud-like" appearance that doesn't obscure the price action.

RMSE Bollinger Bands + Loop | Lyro RSRMSE Bollinger Bands + Loops
Overview
The RMSE Bollinger Bands + Loops is a sophisticated technical analysis tool designed to identify and quantify market trends by combining dynamic moving averages with statistical measures. This indicator employs a multi-model approach, integrating Bollinger-style RMSE bands, momentum scoring, and a hybrid signal system to provide traders with adaptive insights across varying market conditions.
Indicator Modes
Bollinger-style RMSE Bands: this mode calculates dynamic volatility bands around the price using the following formula:
Upper Band = Dynamic Moving Average + (RMSE × Multiplier)
Lower Band = Dynamic Moving Average - (RMSE × Multiplier)
These bands adjust to market volatility, helping identify potential breakout or breakdown points.
For-Loop Momentum Scoring, momentum is assessed by analyzing recent price behavior through a looping mechanism. A rising momentum score indicates increasing bullish strength, while a declining score suggests growing bearish momentum.
Hybrid Combined Signal: this mode assigns a directional score to the other two modes:
+1 for bullish (green)
–1 for bearish (red)
An average of these scores is computed to generate a combined signal, offering a consolidated market trend indication.
Practical Application
Signal Interpretation: A buy signal is generated when both the RMSE Bands and For-Loop Momentum Scoring align bullishly. Conversely, a sell signal is indicated when both are bearish.
Trend Confirmation: The Hybrid Combined Signal provides a consolidated view, assisting traders in confirming the prevailing market trend.
Note: Always consider additional technical analysis tools and risk management strategies when making trading decisions.
⚠️Disclaimer
This indicator is a tool for technical analysis and does not provide guaranteed results. It should be used in conjunction with other analysis methods and proper risk management practices. The creators of this indicator are not responsible for any financial decisions made based on its signals.
Intermarket Correlation Oscillator (ICO)The Intermarket Correlation Oscillator (ICO) is a TradingView indicator that helps traders analyze the relationship between two assets, such as stocks, indices, or cryptocurrencies, by measuring their price correlation. It displays this correlation as an oscillator ranging from -1 to +1, making it easy to spot whether the assets move together, oppositely, or independently. A value near +1 indicates strong positive correlation (assets move in the same direction), near -1 shows strong negative correlation (opposite movements), and near 0 suggests no correlation. This tool is ideal for confirming trends, spotting divergences, or identifying hedging opportunities across markets.
How It Works?
The ICO calculates the Pearson correlation coefficient between the chart’s primary asset (e.g., Apple stock) and a secondary asset you choose (e.g., SPY for the S&P 500) over a specified number of bars (default: 20). The oscillator is plotted in a separate pane below the chart, with key levels at +0.8 (overbought, strong positive correlation) and -0.8 (oversold, strong negative correlation). A midline at 0 helps gauge neutral correlation. When the oscillator crosses these levels or the midline, labels ("OB" for overbought, "OS" for oversold) and alerts notify you of significant shifts. Shaded zones highlight extreme correlations (red for overbought, green for oversold) if enabled.
Why Use the ICO?
Trend Confirmation: High positive correlation (e.g., SPY and QQQ both rising) confirms market trends.
Divergence Detection: Negative correlation (e.g., DXY rising while stocks fall) signals potential reversals.
Hedging: Identify negatively correlated assets to balance your portfolio.
Market Insights: Understand how assets like stocks, bonds, or crypto interact.
Easy Steps to Use the ICO in TradingView
Add the Indicator:
Open TradingView and load your chart (e.g., AAPL on a daily timeframe).
Go to the Pine Editor at the bottom of the TradingView window.
Copy and paste the ICO script provided earlier.
Click "Add to Chart" to display the oscillator below your price chart.
Configure Settings:
Click the gear icon next to the indicator’s name in the chart pane to open settings.
Secondary Symbol: Choose an asset to compare with your chart’s symbol (e.g., "SPY" for S&P 500, "DXY" for USD Index, or "BTCUSD" for Bitcoin). Default is SPY.
Correlation Lookback Period: Set the number of bars for calculation (default: 20). Use 10-14 for short-term trading or 50 for longer-term analysis.
Overbought/Oversold Levels: Adjust thresholds (default: +0.8 for overbought, -0.8 for oversold) to suit your strategy. Lower values (e.g., ±0.7) give more signals.
Show Midline/Zones: Check boxes to display the zero line and shaded overbought/oversold zones for visual clarity.
Interpret the Oscillator:
Above +0.8: Strong positive correlation (red zone). Assets move together.
Below -0.8: Strong negative correlation (green zone). Assets move oppositely.
Near 0: No clear relationship (midline reference).
Labels: "OB" or "OS" appears when crossing overbought/oversold levels, signaling potential correlation shifts.
Set Up Alerts:
Right-click the indicator, select "Add Alert."
Choose conditions like "Overbought Alert" (crossing above +0.8), "Oversold Alert" (crossing below -0.8), or zero-line crossings for bullish/bearish correlation shifts.
Configure notifications (e.g., email, SMS) to stay informed.
Apply to Trading:
Use positive correlation to confirm trades (e.g., buy AAPL if SPY is rising and correlation is high).
Spot divergences for reversals (e.g., stocks dropping while DXY rises with negative correlation).
Combine with other indicators like RSI or moving averages for stronger signals.
Tips for New Users
Start with related assets (e.g., SPY and QQQ for tech stocks) to see clear correlations.
Test on a demo account to understand signals before trading live.
Be aware that correlation is a lagging indicator; confirm signals with price action.
If the secondary symbol doesn’t load, ensure it’s valid on TradingView (e.g., use correct ticker format).
The ICO is a powerful, beginner-friendly tool to explore intermarket relationships, enhancing your trading decisions with clear visual cues and alerts.

Hidden Markov Model [Extension] | FractalystWhat's the indicator's purpose and functionality?
The Hidden Markov Model is specifically designed to integrate with the Quantify Trading Model framework, serving as a probabilistic market regime identification system for institutional trading analysis.
Hidden Markov Models are particularly well-suited for market regime detection because they can model the unobservable (hidden) state of the market, capture probabilistic transitions between different states, and account for observable market data that each state generates.
The indicator uses Hidden Markov Model mathematics to automatically detect distinct market regimes such as low-volatility bull markets, high-volatility bear markets, or range-bound consolidation periods.
This approach provides real-time regime probabilities without requiring optimization periods that can lead to overfitting, enabling systematic trading based on genuine probabilistic market structure.
How does this extension work with the Quantify Trading Model?
The Hidden Markov Model | Fractalyst serves as a probabilistic state estimation engine for systematic market analysis.
Instead of relying on traditional technical indicators, this system automatically identifies market regimes using forward algorithm implementation with three-state probability calculation (bullish/neutral/bearish), Viterbi decoding process for determining most likely regime sequence without repainting, online parameter learning with adaptive emission probabilities based on market observations, and multi-feature analysis combining normalized returns, volatility comprehensive regime assessment.
The indicator outputs regime probabilities and confidence levels that can be used for systematic trading decisions, portfolio allocation, or risk management protocols.
Why doesn't this use optimization periods like other indicators?
The Hidden Markov Model | Fractalyst deliberately avoids optimization periods to prevent overfitting bias that destroys out-of-sample performance.
The system uses a fixed mathematical framework based on Hidden Markov Model theory rather than optimized parameters, probabilistic state estimation using forward algorithm calculations that work across all market conditions, online learning methodology with adaptive parameter updates based on real-time market observations, and regime persistence modeling using fixed transition probabilities with 70% diagonal bias for realistic regime behavior.
This approach ensures the regime detection signals remain robust across different market cycles without the performance degradation typical of over-optimized traditional indicators.
Can this extension be used independently for discretionary trading?
No, the Hidden Markov Model | Fractalyst is specifically engineered for systematic implementation within institutional trading frameworks.
The indicator is designed to provide regime filtering for systematic trading algorithms and risk management systems, enable automated backtesting through mathematical regime identification without subjective interpretation, and support institutional-level analysis when combined with systematic entry/exit models.
Using this indicator independently would miss the primary value proposition of systematic regime-based strategy optimization that institutional frameworks provide.
How do I integrate this with the Quantify Trading Model?
Integration enables institutional-grade systematic trading through advanced machine learning and statistical validation:
- Add both HMM Extension and Quantify Trading Model to your chart
- Select HMM Extension as the bias source using input.source()
- Quantify automatically uses the extension's bias signals for entry/exit analysis
- The built-in machine learning algorithms score optimal entry and exit levels based on trend intensity, and market structure patterns identified by the extension
The extension handles all bias detection complexity while Quantify focuses on optimal trade timing, position sizing, and risk management along with PineConnector automation
What markets and assets does the indicator Extension work best on?
The Hidden Markov Model | Fractalyst performs optimally on markets with sufficient price movement since the system relies on statistical analysis of returns, volatility, and momentum patterns for regime identification.
Recommended asset classes include major forex pairs (EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY) with high liquidity and clear regime transitions, stock index futures (ES, NQ, YM) providing consistent regime behavior patterns, individual equities (large-cap stocks with sufficient volatility for regime detection), cryptocurrency markets (BTC, ETH with pronounced regime characteristics), and commodity futures (GC, CL showing distinct market cycles and regime transitions).
These markets provide sufficient statistical variation in returns and volatility patterns, ensuring the HMM system's mathematical framework can effectively distinguish between bullish, neutral, and bearish regime states.
Any timeframe from 15-minute to daily charts provides sufficient data points for regime calculation, with higher timeframes (4H, Daily) typically showing more stable regime identification with fewer false transitions, while lower timeframes (30m, 1H) provide more responsive regime detection but may show increased noise.
Acceptable Timeframes and Portfolio Integration:
- Any timeframe that can be evaluated within Quantify Trading Model's backtesting engine is acceptable for live trading implementation.

HMA Swing Levels [BigBeluga]An advanced swing structure and trend-following tool built on Hull Moving Average logic, designed to detect major reversals and track dynamic support/resistance zones.
This indicator analyzes price swings using pivot highs/lows and a smoothed HMA trend baseline. It highlights key reversal levels and keeps them active until breached, giving traders a clear visual framework for price structure and trend alignment. The pivots are calculated in real-time using non-lagging logic, making them highly responsive to market conditions.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Combines a fast-reacting Hull Moving Average (HMA) with pivot logic to capture precise directional changes.
Detects non-lagging reversal highs and lows when pivot points form and the HMA direction flips.
Projects these reversal levels forward as horizontal support/resistance lines until broken by price.
Active trend is shown with a step-style trail line that reflects HMA bias over time.
🔵 FEATURES
Swing Level Detection:
Identifies high/low reversals when trend direction changes and plots horizontal zones.
Non-lagging logic of swing points detection:
if h == high and high < h and change > 0
// Detected Swing High
if l == low and low > l and change < 0
// Detected Swing Low
Persistent Support & Resistance Lines:
Each detected swing high or low is extended forward until price invalidates the level. Dotted style is applied once breached.
Color-Coded Trend Trail:
Displays a stepped trend trail using HMA slope: lime = uptrend, blue = downtrend.
Automatic Labeling:
Each reversal level is labeled with its price for clear reference.
Age-Based Line Thickness:
Every level increases in thickness every 250 bars. The longer the level lasts, the stronger it is.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use green (support) and blue (resistance) levels to frame key reaction zones.
Trade with the trend defined by the trail color: lime for bullish bias, blue for bearish.
Explore where buy or sell orders are stacked
Look for breaks of swing lines to anticipate trend shifts or breakout setups.
Adjust the "Trend Change" input to tune the sensitivity of swing detection.
Adjust the "SwingLevels" input to define how far back to search for valid pivots.
🔵 CONCLUSION
HMA Swing Levels offers a hybrid approach to structural and trend-based trading. With automated non-lagging swing detection, persistent support/resistance tracking, and intuitive HMA-based trend coloring, it provides a powerful visual system for discretionary and systematic traders alike.
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.

________________________________________
📚 Core Concepts
Smart Money vs Retail Money
Smart Money:
• Banks, hedge funds, large institutions
• Create market moves, don't follow them
• Exploit retail predictability
Retail Money:
• Individual traders
• Often act emotionally
• Place stop losses at predictable levels
Liquidity
Liquidity refers to areas where many orders are waiting:
• Stop losses above highs (shorts)
• Stop losses below lows (longs)
• Orders at round numbers
Key principle: Smart Money needs liquidity to enter/exit large positions. That's why they "hunt" stop losses first, then make the real move.

________________________________________
🛡️ Risk Management
Basic Rules
1. Never place stop loss at obvious level
o Add 5-10 pips buffer
o Avoid round numbers
o Check where Liquidity Pools are
2. Reduce position in Kill Zones
o 50% of normal size
o Or wait until they end
3. Avoid trading at HIGH RISK status
o Unless experienced
o Then reverse logic - look for traps
Stop Loss - Where to Place?
❌ Bad places:
• Exactly below/above candle
• At Inducement Levels
• At round numbers
• Where Liquidity Pools visible
✅ Good places:
• Beyond last stop hunt
• Behind Trapped Traders zone
• Minimum 1.5 ATR from entry
• Where SM would lose significantly
Position Sizing
Safe position formula:
Risk per trade = 1-2% of capital
Position size = Risk / (Stop Loss in pips × Pip value)

❓ FAQ
General Questions
Q: Indicator shows nothing, what to do? A: Check in settings:
1. Reduce "Min. Touches" to 1
2. Increase "Detection Sensitivity"
3. Enable "Debug Mode" to see statistics
4. Ensure proper timeframe (15M+)
5. On 15M sometimes wait a few candles for first signal
Tip for 15M: If you don't see signals on 15M, enable Debug Mode. If it shows Liq=0, reduce "Min. Touches" to 1 and increase "Liquidity Lookback" to 100.
Q: Too many signals, I'm lost A:
1. Increase requirements (min. touches, respects)
2. Disable some components
3. Trade only strongest signals (SM 🎯)
Q: Which timeframe is best? A:
• 15M - PERFECT FOR LEARNING! Many signals, shows all manipulations, great for beginners
• 30M - Good balance, less noise than 15M
• 1H - Medium-term trading, clear setups
• 4H - Fewer signals but bigger moves, for patient traders
• 1D - Only major levels, position trading
💡 For beginners: Start with 15M! That's where you'll see how the market really works - stop hunts, traps, false breakouts. Only after understanding the mechanics, move to higher timeframes.
Technical Questions
Q: What does "x15" mean at LIQ? A: Number of level touches. Higher = stronger level.
Q: Why are Kill Zones red? A: High risk periods - most manipulation.

Inside Bar Detector - 15min
🔍 What is an Inside Bar?
An **Inside Bar** is a candle that forms **entirely within the high and low of the previous candle**. It represents **consolidation**, **indecision**, or **potential reversal**, and is a key signal in The Strat trading method.
🔧 What the Script Does:
1. **Timeframe Restriction**:
* The script activates **only on the 15-minute timeframe**, avoiding clutter on other timeframes.
2. **Inside Bar Logic**:
* It checks whether the **current bar’s high is lower than the previous bar’s high**, **AND** the **current bar’s low is higher than the previous bar’s low**.
* If both conditions are true, it confirms an Inside Bar.
3. **Visual Display**:
* When an Inside Bar is detected, the script **plots a yellow label ("1") above the bar**.
* The label represents the Strat 1-bar and helps you easily spot potential setups.
🎯 Use Case:
* Ideal for **Strat traders**, **price action analysts**, or **any trader** looking for breakout or reversal opportunities.
* Common setups include **1-2**, **1-3**, or **double inside bar** breakouts.
Modified Fractal Open/CloseModified Fractal (Open/Close Based) - Indicator
The Modified Fractal (Open/Close Based) indicator offers a new way to detect fractal patterns on your chart by analyzing the open and close prices instead of the traditional high and low values.
🧮 How it works:
The indicator evaluates a group of 5 consecutive candles.
The central candle (2 bars ago) is analyzed.
For a Bullish Fractal:
The open or close of the central candle must be lower than the open and close of the other 4 surrounding candles.
For a Bearish Fractal:
The open or close of the central candle must be higher than the open and close of the other 4 surrounding candles.
Once a valid pattern is detected, a visual symbol (triangle) is plotted directly on the chart and an alert can be triggered.
✅ Key Features:
Non-repainting signals (evaluated after candle close)
Fully mechanical detection logic
Easy-to-use visual signals
Alert conditions ready to be integrated into TradingView’s alert system
Suitable for multiple timeframes (can be used from M1 to Daily and beyond)
🎯 Use case:
This modified fractal approach can help traders:
Spot potential swing points
Identify possible reversals
Confirm price exhaustion zones
Support breakout or mean reversion strategies
⚠ Note:
This indicator does not provide trade signals by itself. It is recommended to be combined with additional tools, price action analysis, or risk management rules.
Quantum Market Intelligence (QMI)Quantum Market Intelligence (QMI) Indicator
The Quantum Market Intelligence (QMI) is a sophisticated multi-factor technical indicator that combines four key market analysis components into a single composite score. This indicator provides traders with a comprehensive market assessment tool that adapts to changing market conditions. The QMI score oscillates between -100 and +100, offering clear visual signals through color-coded plotting and an informative dashboard display.
The indicator analyzes markets through four distinct lenses: Trend Analysis (using EMAs and volatility-adjusted momentum), Momentum Analysis (combining RSI, Stochastic, and Williams %R), Volume Analysis (incorporating volume ratios and Accumulation/Distribution), and Volatility Analysis (utilizing ATR and Bollinger Bands). These components are intelligently weighted based on detected market regimes - whether trending, volatile, or range-bound. The adaptive mode feature continuously evaluates the indicator's recent performance and adjusts sensitivity accordingly, making it responsive to evolving market dynamics.
Traders can utilize the QMI's signal system which generates four types of alerts: Strong Buy (above 70 and rising), Buy (crossing above 30), Strong Sell (below -70 and falling), and Sell (crossing below -30). The visual presentation includes triangular markers for strong signals, circular markers for regular signals, and background shading that indicates the current market regime. The information table displays real-time metrics including the QMI score, individual component scores, detected market regime, and performance ratio, providing traders with a complete analytical dashboard for informed decision-making.
Important Notice:
The use of this technical indicator does not guarantee profitable results. This indicator should not be used as a standalone analysis tool. It is essential to combine it with other forms of analysis, such as fundamental analysis, risk management strategies, and awareness of current market conditions. Always conduct thorough research.

How to use:
Simply add this script to your TradingView chart. Then, open the indicator's settings to set your desired candle number.
Heatmap Trailing Stop with Breakouts (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Heatmap Trailing Stop with Breakouts (Zeiierman) is a trend and breakout detection tool that combines dynamic trailing stop logic, Fibonacci-based levels, and a real-time market heatmap into a single, intuitive system.
This indicator is designed to help traders visualize pressure zones, manage stop placement, and identify breakout opportunities supported by contextual price–derived heat. Whether you're trailing trends, detecting reversals, or entering on explosive breakouts — this tool keeps you anchored in structure and sentiment.
It projects adaptive trailing stop levels and calculates Fibonacci extensions from swing-based extremes. These levels are then colored by a market heatmap engine that tracks price interaction intensity — showing where the market is "hot" and likely to respond.
On top of that, it includes breakout signals powered by HTF momentum conditions, trend direction, and heatmap validation — giving you signals only when the context is strong.
█ How It Works
⚪ Trailing Stop Engine
At its core, the script uses an ATR-based trailing stop with trend detection:
ATR Length – Defines volatility smoothing using EMA MA of true range.
Multiplier – Expands/retracts the trailing offset depending on market aggression.
Real-Time Extremum Tracking – Uses local highs/lows to define Fibonacci anchors.
⚪ Fibonacci Projection + Heatmap
With each trend shift, Fibonacci levels are projected from the new swing to the current trailing stop. These include:
Fib 61.8, 78.6, 88.6, and 100% (trailing stop) lines
Heatmap Coloring – Each level'slevel's color is determined by how frequently price has interacted with that level in the recent range (defined by ATR).
Strength Score (1–10) – The number of touches per level is normalized and averaged to create a heatmap ""score"" displayed as a colored bar on the chart.
⚪ Breakout Signal System
This engine detects high-confidence breakout signals using a higher timeframe candle structure:
Bullish Breakout – Strong bullish candle + momentum + trend confirmation + heatmap score threshold.
Bearish Breakout – Strong bearish candle + momentum + trend confirmation + heatmap score threshold.
Cooldown Logic – Prevents signals from clustering too frequently during volatile periods.
█ How to Use
⚪ Trend Following & Trail Stops
Use the Trailing Stop line to manage positions or time entries in line with trend direction. Trailing stop flips are highlighted with dot markers.
⚪ Fibonacci Heat Zones
The projected Fibonacci levels serve as price magnets or support/resistance zones. Watch how price reacts at Fib 61.8/78.6/88.6 levels — especially when they're glowing with high heatmap scores (more glow = more historical touches = stronger significance).
⚪ Breakout Signals
Enable breakout signals when you want to trade breakouts only under strong context. Use the "Heatmap Strength Threshold" to require a minimum score (1–10).
█ Settings
Stop Distance ATR Length – ATR period for volatility smoothing
Stop Distance Multiplier – Adjusts the trailing stop'sstop's distance from price
Heatmap Range ATR Length – Defines how far back the heatmap scans for touches
Number of Heat Levels – Total levels used in the heatmap (more = finer resolution)
Minimum Touches per Level – Defines what counts as a ""hot"" level
Heatmap Strength Threshold – Minimum average heat score (1–10) required for breakouts
Timeframe – HTF source used to evaluate breakout momentum structure

Bias Bar Coloring + Multi-Timeframe Bias Table + AlertsMulti-Timeframe Bias Bar Coloring with Alerts & Table
This indicator provides a powerful, visual way to assess price action bias across multiple timeframes—Monthly, Weekly, and Daily—while also coloring each bar based on the current chart’s bias.
Features:
Persistent Bar Coloring: Bars are colored green for bullish bias (close above previous high), red for bearish bias (close below previous low), and persist the last color if neither condition is met. This makes trend shifts and momentum easy to spot at a glance.
Bias Change Alerts: Get notified instantly when the bias flips from bullish to bearish or vice versa, helping you stay on top of potential trade setups or risk management decisions.
Multi-Timeframe Bias Table: A table anchored in the top right corner displays the current bias for the Monthly, Weekly, and Daily charts, color-coded for quick reference. This gives you a clear view of higher timeframe context while trading any chart.
Consistent Logic: The same objective bias logic is used for all timeframes, ensuring clarity and reliability in your analysis.
How to Use:
Use the bar colors for instant visual feedback on trend and momentum shifts.
Watch the top-right table to align your trades with higher timeframe bias, improving your edge and filtering out lower-probability setups.
Set alerts to be notified of bias changes, so you never miss a potential opportunity.
This tool is ideal for traders who value multi-timeframe analysis, want clear visual cues for trend direction, and appreciate having actionable alerts and context at their fingertips.
Gap Open DetectorIndicator Note: Gap Open Detector
What This Indicator Does
This indicator helps you spot significant price gaps at the start of new candles compared to the previous candle’s close. A gap means the current candle’s opening price is noticeably higher or lower than the previous candle’s closing price.
Gap Up: The new candle opens above the previous candle’s close.
Gap Down: The new candle opens below the previous candle’s close.
The indicator highlights these gaps with colored candles:
Green Candle: Gap Up detected.
Red Candle: Gap Down detected.
How to Use the Indicator:
This indicator gives Best Results on Hourly Candles:
This indicator works best on hourly charts (1-hour time frame). It is especially useful for spotting gaps at the start of the next day or after a significant break in trading.
Wait for Confirmation:
After a gap is detected at the open, wait for the candle to form. Ideally, wait for one hour (until the hourly candle is complete) to confirm the candle’s direction and strength before taking any action.
Customize Gap Size:
You can set the minimum gap size using either points or percentage:
Points: Enter the minimum number of points for a gap to be considered significant.
Percentage: Enter the minimum percentage change for a gap to be considered significant.
This flexibility allows you to adjust the indicator to suit different markets and volatility levels.
Trading Logic
If there is a Gap Up and the one hour candle is green:
Buy Option: Consider initiating a buy (long) position.
If there is a Gap Up but the one hour candle is red:
Sell Option: Consider initiating a sell (short) position.
If there is a Gap Down and the one hour closing candle is red:
Sell Option: Consider initiating a sell (short) position.
If there is a Gap Down but the one hour candle is green:
Buy Option: Consider initiating a buy (long) position.
Important Tips
1. Patience Pays: Always wait for the hourly candle to close before making any trading decisions based on the gap.
2. Next Day Open: This strategy is especially effective for catching gaps at the start of a new trading day or after a market break.
3. Visual Cues: The indicator gives you a simple visual cue to spot potential trading opportunities.
4. Flexible Settings: Set your preferred gap size in points or percentage to match your trading style.
Volume Weighted Average Price Dynamic Slope [sgbpulse]VWAP Dynamic Slope: A Comprehensive Indicator for Trend Identification and Smart Trading
Introducing VWAP Dynamic Slope, an innovative TradingView indicator that harnesses the power of Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) and enhances it with immediate visual feedback. The indicator colors the VWAP line based on its slope, allowing you to quickly and easily identify the direction and strength of the current trend for the asset, providing advanced tools for in-depth analysis.
What is VWAP and Why is it so Important?
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) is an indicator that represents the average price at which an asset has traded, weighted by the volume traded at each price level. Unlike a simple moving average, VWAP gives greater weight to trades executed with high volume, making it a reliable measure of the asset's "true" or "fair" price within a given period. Many institutional traders use VWAP as a central reference point for evaluating the effectiveness of entries and exits. An asset trading above its VWAP is considered to have bullish momentum, and below it – bearish momentum.
How it Works: Dynamic VWAP Slope Analysis
VWAP Dynamic Slope analyzes the inclination of the VWAP line and displays it using an intuitive color scheme:
Positive Slope (Uptrend): When the VWAP points upwards, signaling positive momentum, the default color will be green.
Negative Slope (Downtrend): When the VWAP points downwards, signaling negative momentum, the default color will be orange.
Trend Change (CHG): When a change in the VWAP's trend direction occurs, a "CHG" label will be displayed. The label's color will be green if the change is to an uptrend, and orange if the change is to a downtrend.
Identifying Steep Slopes for Increased Momentum:
The indicator's uniqueness lies in its ability to identify "steep" slopes – rapid and particularly strong changes in the VWAP's direction. This indicates exceptionally strong momentum:
Steep Positive Slope: The VWAP color will change to dark green, indicating significant buying pressure.
Steep Negative Slope: The VWAP color will change to dark red, indicating significant selling pressure.
Dynamic Momentum Strength Label: In situations of steep slope (positive or negative), a dynamic label will be displayed with the change value of the VWAP at that point. This label allows you to monitor momentum strength, intensification, or weakening in real-time.
Advanced Analytical Tools for Complete Control
VWAP Dynamic Slope provides you with unprecedented flexibility through a variety of customizable tools:
Multiple VWAP Anchors and Visual Marking:
Common Time Anchors: Choose whether the VWAP resets at the beginning of each Session (daily), Week, Month, Quarter, Year, Decade, or Century.
Advanced Intraday Anchors: Within the Session, you can choose to calculate VWAP specifically for Pre-Market, Regular Hours, and Post-Market hours. This option is particularly crucial for intraday traders.
Important Event Anchors: The indicator allows for VWAP resets at significant milestones such as Earnings, Dividends, and Splits, for analyzing the market's immediate reaction.
Visual Anchor Marking: To enhance clarity and orientation, a Label ⚓ can be displayed at each selected anchor point, helping to immediately identify the start point of the VWAP calculation in the chosen context.
Customizable Bands (Up to Three on Each Side):
Add up to three Bands above and below the VWAP to identify areas of deviation and excursion from the average price. You have two calculation options:
Standard Deviation: Based on volatility and statistical distance from the VWAP.
Percentage: Defines fixed percentage-based bands from the VWAP.
Key Pre-Market Levels (Pre-Market High/Low):
Display the Pre-Market High and Low levels as separate lines on the chart. These lines often serve as important psychological support and resistance zones, allowing you to see how the VWAP behaves near them.
Full Customization and Precise Control:
VWAP Source Selection: Determine which price data type will be used for the VWAP calculation. The default is HLC3 (average of High, Low, and Close), but any other relevant data source available in TradingView can be selected.
Offset: Set an offset for the VWAP line, allowing you to shift it left or right on the time axis by a chosen number of bars.
Customizable Colors: Choose your preferred colors for each slope state, Pre-Market High/Low lines, and Bands.
Setting the "Steepness" Threshold (Per-mille Price Change Per Minute ‱/min with Auto-Adjustment): Determine the sensitivity for identifying a steep slope by setting the required change threshold in VWAP in terms of per-mille price change per minute (‱/min). The indicator performs smart adjustment for any timeframe you select on the chart (e.g., 30 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, etc.), ensuring that the "steepness" setting maintains consistency and relevance.
Examples for Setting the Steepness Threshold:
Suppose you set the steepness threshold to 0.3‱/min (per-mille price change per minute).
On a 30-second chart: The indicator will check if the VWAP changed by 0.15 ‱/min (half of the per-minute threshold) within a single bar. If so, the slope will be considered steep. Explanation: Since 30 seconds is half a minute, the indicator looks for a change that is half of the threshold set for a full minute.
On a 1-minute chart: The indicator will check if the VWAP changed by 0.3 ‱/min (the full per-minute threshold) within a single bar. If so, the slope will be considered steep. Explanation: Here, the bar represents a full minute, so we check the full threshold.
On a 5-minute chart: The indicator will check if the VWAP changed by 1.5 ‱/min (5 times the per-minute threshold) within a single bar. If so, the slope will be considered steep. Explanation: A 5-minute bar contains 5 minutes, so the cumulative change in VWAP needs to be 5 times greater to be considered "steep" on the same scale.
In summary, this setting allows you to precisely and uniformly control the sensitivity of steep slope detection across all timeframes, providing immense flexibility in analyzing the asset's momentum.
Advantages of Using Per-mille Price Change Per Minute (‱/min)
Using per-mille price change per minute (‱/min) offers several key advantages for your indicator:
Normalized and Objective Measurement: It provides a uniform scale for the VWAP's rate of change, regardless of the asset's price or nominal value. A 0.1 per-mille change per minute always carries the same relative significance.
Comparison Across Different Asset Prices: Using per-mille allows for direct comparison of VWAP movement strength between assets trading at very different prices (e.g., a $100 asset versus a $1 asset), enabling an understanding of true momentum without bias from the nominal price.
Smart Timeframe Agnostic Adjustment: This is a critical capability. The indicator automatically adjusts the per-mille per minute threshold you set to any chart timeframe (30 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes, etc.), maintaining consistency in "steepness" detection without manual recalibration.
Precise Momentum Identification: This measurement precisely identifies when the VWAP's rate of change becomes significant, and when momentum strengthens or weakens, contributing to more informed trading decisions.
In short, per-mille change per minute (‱/min) provides accuracy, consistency, and flexibility in identifying VWAP momentum changes, with smart adaptation across all timeframes.
Who is this Indicator For?
VWAP Dynamic Slope is a powerful tool for:
Intraday Traders: For quick identification of intraday trend directions and momentum across any timeframe, with specific consideration for Pre-Market, Regular Hours, or Post-Market VWAP, and incorporating key pre-market levels.
Swing Traders and Long-Term Investors: For analyzing longer-term trends based on periodic and event-driven VWAP anchors.
Beginner Traders: As an excellent visual aid for understanding the relationship between price, volume, and trend direction, and how different anchor points, pre-market levels, and data sources influence price behavior.
Experienced Traders: For integration with existing strategies, gaining additional confirmation for trend strength identification, and highly precise and flexible parameter calibration.
VWAP Dynamic Slope provides a rich, multi-dimensional layer of information about the VWAP, helping you make more informed trading decisions in real-time, within the context of your chosen asset.

Important Note!
The system equity curve presented here has been generated as part of the process of testing and verifying the methodology behind this script.
Crucially, it was developed after the system was conceptualized, designed, and created, which helps to mitigate the risk of overfitting to historical data. In other words, the system was built for robustness, not for simply optimizing past performance.
This ensures that the system is less likely to degrade in performance over time, compared to hyper-optimized systems that are tailored to past data. No tweaks or optimizations were made to this system post-backtest.
Even More Important Note!!
The nature of markets is that they change quickly and unpredictably. Past performance does not guarantee future results - this is a fundamental rule in trading and investing.
While this system is designed with broad, flexible conditions to adapt quickly to a range of market environments, it is essential to understand that no assumptions should be made about future returns based on historical data. Markets are inherently uncertain, and this system - like all trading systems - cannot predict future outcomes.
INTRODUCTION TO THE STAR FRAMEWORK
The STAR Framework – an abbreviation for Strategic Trading with Adaptive Risk - is a bespoke portfolio-level infrastructure for dynamic, multi-asset crypto trading systems. It combines systematic position management, adaptive sizing, and “intra-system” diversification, all built on a rigorous foundation of Risk-based position sizing .
At its core, STAR is designed to facilitate:
Adaptive position sizing based on user-defined maximum portfolio risk
Capital allocation across multiple assets with dynamic weight adjustment
Execution-aware trading with robust fee and slippage adjustment
Realistic equity curve logic based on a compounding realized PnL and additive unrealized PnL
The STAR Framework is intended for use as both a standalone portfolio system or preferred as a modular component within a broader trading “global portfolio” - delivering a balance of robustness and scalability across strategy types, timeframes, and market regimes.
RISK ALLOCATION VIA "R" CALCULATIONS
The foundational concept behind STAR is the use of the R unit - a dynamic representation of risk per trade. R is defined by the distance between a trade's entry and its stoploss, making it an intuitive and universally adaptive sizing unit across any token, timeframe, or market.
Example: Suppose the entry price is $100, and the stoploss is $95. A $5 move against the position represents a 1R loss. A 15% price increase to $115 would equal a +3R gain.
This makes R-based systems highly flexible: the user defines the percentage of capital that is put at risk per R and all positions are scaled accordingly - whether the token is volatile, illiquid, or slow-moving.
R is an advantageous method for determine position sizing - instead of being tied to complex value at risk mechanisms with having layered exit criteria, or continuous volatility-based sizing criteria that need to be adjusted while in an open trade, R allows for very straightforward sizing, invalidation and especially risk control – which is the most fundamental.
REALIZED BALANCE, FEES & SLIPPAGE ACCOUNTING
All position sizing, risk metrics, and the base equity curve within STAR are calculated based on realized balance only .
This means:
No sizing adjustments are made based on unrealized profit and loss ✅
No active positions are included in the system's realized equity until fully closed ✅
Every trade is sized precisely according to current locked-in realized portfolio balance ✅
This creates the safest risk profile - especially when multiple trades are open. Unrealized gains are not used to inflate sizing, ensuring margin safety across all assets.
All calculations also incorporate slippage and fees, based on user-defined estimates – which can and should be based upon user-collected data - and updated frequently forwards in time. These are not cosmetic, or simply applied to the final equity curve - they are fully integrated into the dynamic position sizing and equity performance , ensuring:
Stoploss hits result in exactly a −1R loss, even after slippage and fees ✅
Winners are discounted based on realistic execution costs ✅
No trade is oversized due to unaccounted execution costs ✅
Example - Slippage in R Units:
Let R be defined as the distance from entry to stoploss.
Suppose that distance is $1, and the trade is closed at a win of +$2.
If execution slippage leads to a 50 cent worse entry and a 50 cent worse exit, you’ve lost $1 extra - which is an additional 1R in execution slippage. This makes the effective return 1.0R instead of the intended 2.0R.
This is equivalent to a slippage value of 50%.
Thus, slippage in STAR is tracked and modelled on an R-adjusted basis , enabling more accurate long-term performance modelling.
MULTI-ASSET, LONG/SHORT SUPPORT
STAR supports concurrent long and short positions across multiple tokens. This can sometimes result in partially hedged exposure - for example, being long one asset and short another.
This structure has key benefits:
Diversifies idiosyncratic risk by distributing exposure across multiple tokens
Allows simultaneous exploitation of relative strength and weakness
Reduces portfolio volatility via natural hedging during reduced trending periods
Even in a highly correlated market like crypto, short-term momentum behaviour often varies between tokens - making diversified, multi-directional exposure a strategic advantage .
EQUITY CURVE
The STAR framework only updates the underlying realized equity when a position is closed, and the trade outcome is known. This approach ensures:
True representation of actual capital available for trading
No exposure distortion due to unrealized gains
Risk remains tightly linked to realized results
This trade-to-trade basis for realized equity modelling eliminates the common pitfall of overallocation based on unrealized profits.
The visual equity curve represents an accurate visualization of the Total Equity however, which is equivalent to what would be the realized equity if all trades were closed on the prior bar close.
TIMEFRAME CONSIDERATIONS
Lower timeframes typically yield better performance for STAR due to:
Greater data density per day - more observations = better statistical inference
Faster compounding - more trades per week = faster capital rotation
However, lower timeframes also suffer from increased slippage and fees. STAR's execution-aware structure helps mitigate this, but users must still choose timeframes appropriate to their liquidity, costs, and operational availability.
INPUT OPTIONS
Fees (direct trading costs - the percentage of capital removed from the initial position size)
Slippage (execution delay, as a percentage. In practice, the fill price is often worse than the signal price. This directly affects R and hence position sizing)
Risk % ( Please note : this is the risk level if every position is opened at once. 5% risk for 5 assets is 1% risk per position)
System Start date
Float Precision value of displayed numbers
Table visualization - positioning and table sizes
Adjustable color options
VISUAL SIMPLICITY
To avoid usual unnecessary complexity and empower fast at-a-glance action taking, as well as enable mobile compatibility, only the most relevant information is presented.
This includes all information required to open positions in one table.
As well as a quick and straightforward overview for the system stats
Lastly, there is an optional table that can be enabled
displaying more detailed information if desired:
USAGE GUIDELINES
To use STAR effectively:
Input your average slippage and fees %
Input your maximum portfolio risk % (this controls overall leverage and is equivalent to the maximum loss that the allocation to STAR would bring if ALL positions are allocated AND hit their stop loss at the same time)
Wait for signal alerts with entry, stop, and size details
STAR will dynamically calculate sizing, risk exposure, and portfolio allocation on your behalf. Position multipliers, stop placement, and asset-specific risk are all embedded in the system logic.
Note: Leverage must be manually set to ISOLATED on your exchange platform to prevent unwanted position linking.
ABOUT THE BEAR MARKET DEFENDER STRATEGY
The first strategy to launch on the STAR Framework is the BEAR MARKET DEFENDER (BMD) - a fast-acting, trend following system based upon the Trend Titan NEUTRONSTAR. For the details of the logic behind NEUTRONSTAR, please refer to the methodology and trend aggregation section of the following indicator:
The BMD ’s short side exit calculation methodology is slightly improved compared to NEUTRONSTAR, to capture downtrends more consistently and also cut positions faster – which is crucial when considering general jump risk in the Crypto space.
Accordingly, the only focus of the BMD is to capture trends to the short side, providing the benefit of being in a spectrum from no correlation to being negatively correlated in risk and return behavior to classical Crypto long exposure.
More precisely, Crypto behavior showcases that when Bitcoin is in a ranging/mean reverting environment, most tokens that don’t fall into the “Blue-Chip” category tend to find themselves in a trend towards 0.
Typically during this period most Crypto portfolios suffer heavily due to a “Crypto-long” biased exposure.
The Bear Market Defender thrives in these chaotic, high volatility markets where most coins trend towards zero while the traditional Crypto long exposure is either flat or in a drawdown, therefore the BMD adds a source of uncorrelated risk and returns to hedge typical long exposure and bolster portfolio volatility.
Because of the BMD's short-only exposure, it will often suffer small losses during strong uptrends. During these periods, long exposure performs the best and the goal is to outperform the temporary underperformance in the BMD .
To take advantage of the abovementioned behavior of most tokens trending to zero, assets traded in the BMD are systematically updated on a quarterly basis with available liquidity being an important consideration for the tokens to be eligible for selection.
FINAL SUMMARY
The STAR Framework represents a new generation of portfolio grade trading infrastructure, built around disciplined execution, realized equity, and adaptive position sizing. It is designed to support any number of future methodologies - beginning with BMD .
The Bear Market Defender is here to hedge out commonly long biased portfolio allocations in the Crypto market, specializing in bringing uncorrelated returns during periods of sideways price action on Bitcoin, or whole-market downturns.
Together, STAR + BMD deliver a scalable, volatility tuned system that prioritizes capital preservation, signal accuracy, and adaptive risk allocation. Whether deployed standalone or within a broader portfolio, this framework is engineered for high performance, longevity, and adaptability in the ever-evolving crypto landscape.
Timeframe LoopThe Timeframe Loop publication aims to visualize intrabar price progression in a new, different way.
🔶 CONCEPTS and USAGE
I got inspiration from the Pressure/Volume loop, which is used in Mechanical Ventilation with Critical Care patients to visualize pressure/volume evolution during inhalation/exhalation.
The main idea is that intrabar prices are visualized by a loop, going to the right during the first half and returning to the left towards its closing point. Here, the main chart timeframe (CTF) is 4 hours, and we see the movements of eight 30-minute lower timeframe (LTF) periods, highlighted by four yellow dots/lines (first 2 hours -> "Right") and four blue dots/lines (last 2 hours <- "Left"):
🔹 BTF
If "Show Lowest TF" is enabled, the LTF is split into another lower TF (BTF - "Base TF"); in this case, the 30-minute LTF is split into 10 parts of 3 minutes (BTF):
Enabling "Loop Lowest TF" will enable the BTF to react similarly to the largest loop; from halfway, it will return to its startpoint:
Here is a more detailed example:
🔹 Mini-Candles
The included option "Mini-Candles" will bring even more detail, showing the LTF as Japanese candlesticks with user-defined colors and adjustable body width; in this example, the mini-candles associated with the first half (yellow lines/dots) are green/red, while blue/fuchsia in the second half (blue lines/dots):
CTF 10 minutes, LTF 1 minute, BTF 5 seconds
One can see the detailed intrabar price progression in one glance.
CTF 5 minutes, LTF 1 minute, BTF 5 seconds
If the LTF/BTF ratio, divided by two, results in a non-integer number, the right side will be a vertical line instead of just a turning point. In that case, the smaller, most right blue loop will be situated at the right of that line.
10 minutes / 1 minute = 10 -> 10 / 2 = 5 parts
5 minutes / 1 minute = 5 -> 5 / 2 = 2.5 parts
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Timeframes
Lower Timeframe 1
Lower Timeframe 2
No need to worry about the order of both timeframes; BTF will be the lowest TF of the 2, LTF the highest; both have to be lower than the main chart TF (CTF); otherwise, it will result in the error: "`Lower Timeframes` should be lower than current chart timeframe".
The ratio LTF / BTF should be equal or higher than 2; otherwise, this error will show: "`Lower Timeframe` should minimally be twice the `Base (smallest) Timeframe`"
Lastly, the ratio CTF / BTF should be lower than 500; otherwise, this error will pop up: "`Current Chart timeframe` / `Lower Timeframe` should be less than 500."
I have tried to capture runtime errors as best I could. If one should be triggered (red exclamation mark next to the title), it is best to increase the lowest TF.
🔹 Options
Show Lowest TF: Show BTF progression.
Loop Lowest TF: Enabling will let the BTF line return halfway.
Show Mini-Candles
Show Steps
"Show Steps" can be useful to see how the script works, where the location of the current price is compared against the position of the left (L) and right (R) labels:
🔹 Style
MM + MACD [RSI Filter]MM + MACD Trend Follower with RSI Filter
Pedro Canto - Portfolio Manager | CGA/CGE
OVERVIEW
The MM + MACD Trend Follower with RSI Filter is a multi-layered trend-following indicator designed to help traders identify high-probability trend continuation setups while avoiding low-quality entries caused by overbought or oversold market conditions.
This tool combines the power of Moving Averages (MA), the MACD Histogram, and a visual RSI-based filter to validate both trend direction and timing for entries. Its goal is simple: filter out noise and highlight only the most technically relevant buy and sell signals based on objective momentum and trend criteria.
USE CASES
- Identifying trend continuation setups
- Filtering false signals during consolidation phases
- Avoiding trades in overbought or oversold zones
- Enhancing entry timing for both swing and intraday strategies
- Providing visual confirmation of trend strength and momentum alignment
KEY FEATURES
1. Dual Moving Average Setup
The indicator allows full customization of two moving averages (MA1 and MA2), supporting both EMA and SMA types. The slope of the longer MA (MA2) acts as an essential trend filter, ensuring signals are only generated when the market shows clear directional bias.
2. MACD Histogram Trend Confirmation
A classic MACD Histogram calculation is used to validate the momentum of the prevailing trend.
- Bullish Trend: Histogram > 0
- Bearish Trend: Histogram < 0
This step filters out counter-trend signals and ensures trades are aligned with momentum.
3. Intrabar Price Trigger
Unlike standard crossover systems, this indicator waits for intrabar price action to trigger entries:
- Buy Signal: Price crosses below one of the MAs during an uptrend (dip-buy logic)
- Sell Signal: Price crosses above one of the MAs during a downtrend (rally-sell logic)
This intrabar trigger improves entry timing and helps capture retracement-based opportunities.
4. RSI Visual Filter
A short-term RSI is plotted and color-coded to visually highlight overbought and oversold conditions, acting as a discretionary filter for users to avoid low-probability trades during exhaustion points.
5. Dynamic Coloring System
Bar Colors:
- Blue: Bullish trend
- Red: Bearish trend
- Orange: RSI Overbought/Oversold zones
MA Colors:
- Blue for bullish conditions
- Red for bearish conditions
- Gray for neutral/no-trend phases
6. Signal Markers and Alerts
Clear visual buy and sell markers are plotted directly on the chart.
Additionally, the indicator includes real-time alerts for both Buy and Sell signals, helping traders stay informed even when away from the screen.
INPUTS AND CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS
- Moving Average Types: EMA or SMA for both MA1 and MA2.
- MACD Settings: Customizable fast, slow, and signal periods.
- RSI Settings: Source, length, and overbought/oversold levels fully adjustable.
- Color Customization: Adjust RSI zone colors to suit your chart theme.

Support & Resistance External/Internal & BoS [sgbpulse]Market Structure Support & Resistance External/Internal & BoS
Overview: Smart & Fast Market Structure Analysis
The Market Structure "Support & Resistance External/Internal & BoS " indicator is designed to empower your technical analysis by automatically and precisely identifying significant support and resistance levels. It achieves this by pinpointing high and low Pivot Points, plus key Pre-Market High/Low levels.
Its unique strength lies in its dynamic adaptability to any timeframe and any asset you choose. This tool analyzes the relevant market structure for the current timeframe and asset, providing you with accurate and relevant levels in real-time. The indicator maintains a clean chart and swiftly displays all support, resistance, and Pre-Market levels for any asset, saving valuable analysis time and enabling you to get a clear and quick snapshot of the market.
How the Indicator Works
The indicator identifies and displays three critical types of key levels:
External Pivots: These are more significant pivot points, indicating important reversal points across a broader range of price movement, considering the current timeframe. The indicator draws dark green support lines (for low pivots) and dark red resistance lines (for high pivots) from these points.
Internal Pivots: These are shorter-term pivot points, signifying smaller corrections or reversals within the overall structure of the current timeframe. These lines provide additional areas of interest within the ranges of the External Pivots.
Pre-Market High/Low Levels: The indicator displays the High and Low reached during pre-market hours as distinct lines on the chart. Please note: These levels will only appear when the selected timeframe is lower than one day (e.g., 1-hour, 15-minute) and provided that the "Session extended trading hours" option is enabled in your TradingView chart settings. These levels are crucial for identifying potential opening ranges and critical support/resistance areas upon regular market open, especially for intraday trading.
Break of Structure (BoS) Identification
A key feature of this indicator is its ability to identify Break of Structure (BoS). When a support or resistance line is breached, the indicator changes the line's color to gray and displays a "Break of Structure" label, indicating a potential trend change or continuation:
External BoS: When an external support/resistance line is broken, a "BoS" label in red will appear. This is a strong signal for a potential shift in the primary market structure or a strong trend continuation.
Internal BoS: When an internal support/resistance line is broken, an "iBoS" label in green will appear. This indicates a break within the existing market structure, which can be used to confirm direction or identify shorter-term entry/exit opportunities.
Full Indicator Customization
The indicator provides maximum flexibility to suit any trading style and timeframe:
Number of Lines Displayed: You can choose how many support and resistance lines you want to see on your chart. The default is 15 lines, but you can increase or decrease this number according to your needs and desired level of detail.
External Pivot Settings: Define the number of bars before and after a pivot point required for External Pivot identification.
Internal Pivot Settings: Define the number of bars before and after a pivot point required for Internal Pivot identification.
Color Customization: Full control over colors! You can change the colors of the support and resistance lines, the colors of the Pre-Market levels, and also the colors of the BoS and iBoS labels to create a visual appearance that perfectly matches your personal preferences.
This flexibility allows you to adapt the indicator to your trading style and any timeframe you operate in, without needing to manually change settings each time.
Recommended Uses
Clean Chart & Quick Analysis: The indicator displays important levels clearly, enabling quick identification of areas of interest without visual clutter on the chart. This significantly saves analysis time and allows you to make faster decisions.
Critical Levels for Any Timeframe & Asset: Get precise and adaptive support and resistance, plus essential Pre-Market levels (in relevant timeframes), for any timeframe and on any asset you choose.
Trend Direction Identification: Clear support and resistance lines help understand market structure.
Breakout Confirmation: The BoS label provides visual confirmation of key level breaches, helping to confirm potential trend changes.
Locating Entry & Exit Points: Use these levels as potential areas of interest for trades, after confirming a breakout or reversal.
Finding Stop-Loss & Take-Profit Points: Strategically place protective stops and profit targets around these support and resistance levels.
Important Note
Like any technical indicator, Market Structure "Support & Resistance External/Internal & BoS " is a supplementary tool. It's highly recommended to use it in conjunction with additional analysis methods (such as price action analysis, other indicators, and fundamental analysis) for informed trading decisions. Financial markets are dynamic, and trading always carries inherent risk.
Percent Change of Range Candles - FullPercent Change of Range Candles – Full (PCR Full)
Description:
PCR Full is a custom momentum indicator that measures the percentage price change relative to a defined range, offering traders a unique way to evaluate strength, direction, and potential reversals in price movement.
How it works:
The main value (PCR) is calculated by comparing the price change over a selected number of candles (length) to the range between the highest high and lowest low in the same period.
This percentage change is normalized and visualized with dynamic candles on the subgraph.
Reference levels at +100, +50, 0, -50, and -100 serve as key zones to indicate potential overbought/oversold conditions, continuation, or neutrality.
How to read the indicator:
1. Trend continuation:
When PCR breaks above +50 and holds, it often confirms a strong bullish move.
Similarly, values below -50 and staying low signal a bearish continuation.
2. Wick behavior (volatility insight):
Long wicks on PCR candles suggest uncertainty or failed breakout attempts.
Short or no wicks with strong body color show stable momentum and conviction.
On the chart, multiple long wicks near -50 suggest bulls are attempting to push price upward, but lack the strength — until a confirmed breakout.
3. Polarity transition (Bearish to Bullish or vice versa):
A transition from negative PCR values to above zero shows that the market is possibly turning.
Especially if PCR climbs gradually and stabilizes above zero, it indicates a developing bullish phase.
Components:
Main PCR line: Color-coded (green for rising, red for falling).
Open Average (gray line): Smooths recent PCR values, indicating balance.
High/Low adaptive bands: Adjust dynamically to PCR polarity.
PCR Candles: Visualize OHLC of PCR data for enhanced interpretation.
Suggested use cases:
Enter trend trades when PCR crosses +50 or -50 with volume or price confirmation.
Watch for reversal signs near ±100 if PCR fails to break further.
Use 0 line as a neutral zone — markets hovering near 0 are often in consolidation.
Combine with price action or oscillators like RSI/MACD for additional signals.
Customization:
The length input allows users to define the range for PCR calculations, making it adjustable to various timeframes and strategies (scalping, intraday, swing).
