BT Volume & Volatility Spike
The BT Spike Indicator is aimed at identifying significant spikes in trading volume and price volatility on cryptocurrency or futures charts. It helps traders spot potential reversal or momentum shifts by combining volume analysis with volatility measures. The core logic revolves around detecting when volume surges above its historical average while volatility (measured via ATR) also spikes, signaling unusual market activity that could precede breakouts, pullbacks, or trend changes.
Key features include:
Inputs: Customizable parameters like lookback periods for averages (e.g., 14-bar EMA for volume), ATR length (default 14), and spike thresholds (e.g., volume multiplier of 2x the average).
Visuals: Plots bars or shapes on the chart for spike detections (e.g., green for bullish spikes, red for bearish), with optional alerts for real-time notifications.
Versions: We iterated on it, adding features like better alert conditions and visual signals, but rolled back to a simplified v0.1 for reliability, removing some experimental bug-prone elements like multi-timeframe checks.
BT Spike is a volume & volatility signal meant to alert traders that a move could begin soon, and is a supplementary tool to highlight confluence for existing high-probability setups.

Bull/Bear/Consolidation Zones Hariss 369This indicator helps to identify bullish, bearish, and consolidation zones using EMA and ATR-based calculations. It visually highlights zones on the chart and provides buy and sell signals with ATR-based stop-loss (SL) and take-profit (TP) levels.
Key Features:
EMA Trend Filter: Determines the direction of the market.
Bull / Bear / Consolidation Zones: Colored zones to easily spot market phases.
ATR-Based SL & TP: Automatic calculation for each trade signal.
Buy / Sell Signals: Based on price relative to EMA and consolidation zones.
Relative Volume (RVOL) Filter: Optional filter to trade only when volume is significant, helping reduce low-probability signals.
Extended Zones: Option to extend zones forward until a breakout occurs.
Customizable Inputs: EMA length, ATR length, multipliers, RVOL period & multiplier, and toggle RVOL filter.
How to Use:
Identify bull/bear/consolidation zones on your chart. (These are already there) You can change the line as well zone color according to your needs.
Look for buy signals above EMA and consolidation zone, or sell signals below EMA and consolidation zone. The buy and sell labels are already there.
Confirm with RVOL filter (optional) to ensure higher volume support.
Use the plotted SL and TP levels for trade management.
This tool is designed for trend-following and market structure traders who want a visual guide to high-probability trading zones combined with volume confirmation.
One can also trail with EMA in trending market.

### Professional Order Flow Analysis for Index Futures on TradingView
**Specifically Engineered for:** ES, NQ, YM, RTY, and other high-liquidity index futures
---
## Before You Read Any Further
I need to be upfront with you about something important.
**True order flow analysis—the kind used by institutional traders and prop firms—is not possible on TradingView.**
When professionals talk about order flow, they're referring to the raw tape: every single trade, the exact price, the exact size, and whether it was a buyer lifting the offer or a seller hitting the bid. That level of data simply doesn't exist in TradingView's infrastructure.
So why did I build this indicator? Because TradingView *does* provide meaningful volume delta data through their official functions, and when presented correctly, it can still give you a genuine edge in understanding buying and selling pressure—especially on **index futures** where liquidity is deep and the uptick/downtick methodology works best.
This indicator was specifically engineered with index futures traders in mind. The data sources, the color thresholds, the activity calculations—all of it is optimized for the characteristics of ES, NQ, YM, and RTY. It can work on other instruments, but index futures are where it shines.
I'm not here to oversell you. I'm here to give you the best tool possible within the platform's limitations—and to be completely transparent about what those limitations are.

## What This Indicator Actually Does
Nexural OrderFlow Matrix uses TradingView's most advanced volume analysis functions under the hood:
- `ta.requestUpAndDownVolume()` — Samples lower timeframe data to estimate volume on upticks vs downticks
- `ta.requestVolumeDelta()` — TradingView's official cumulative volume delta calculation
The indicator presents this data in two ways:
**1. The Matrix Table**
A heatmap grid aligned beneath each candle showing:
- **Volume** — Total bar volume with yellow/gold intensity gradient
- **Bar VWAP** — Volume-weighted average price within the bar
- **Delta** — Net difference between buying and selling volume
- **Delta %** — Delta as a percentage of total volume (the most important metric)
- **Bar Δ CVD** — How much cumulative volume delta changed this bar
- **Buy Volume** — Estimated volume on upticks
- **Sell Volume** — Estimated volume on downticks
**2. The Imbalance Bars**
A visual stacked bar chart showing the proportional split between buyers and sellers. Green on top represents buying volume, red on bottom represents selling volume. The split is proportional—so a 70/30 bar instantly shows you the imbalance without reading numbers.
**3. The Nexural Flow Meter**
A real-time panel showing:
- Current bias (BUYERS/SELLERS/NEUTRAL)
- Intensity classification (EXTREME/STRONG/MODERATE/WEAK)
- Imbalance ratio (e.g., "BUY 2.3:1")
- Live delta, volume, and VWAP readings
---
## The Color System
I spent considerable time on this because it matters.
Most indicators treat all bars equally. That's noise. In reality, a bar with 8% delta imbalance tells you almost nothing, while a bar with 65% imbalance is screaming information at you.
**The Activity Threshold System:**
- Bars below your threshold (default 25% delta) fade to muted gray tones
- As imbalance increases, colors transition from gray → muted color → vibrant color
- High-activity bars pop with bright greens and reds
- Low-activity bars fade into the background where they belong
**Volume uses a separate yellow/gold gradient:**
- Low volume: Faint, dark yellow-brown
- High volume: Rich, vibrant amber/gold
- This lets you instantly spot volume spikes without reading numbers
The result: your eye is naturally drawn to the bars that matter.
---
## Honest Accuracy Assessment
Based on extensive comparison testing against TradingView's own Volume Footprint and CVD indicators, this indicator achieves approximately **85-90% correlation** with official TradingView tools.
Let me put that in perspective:
| Platform | Data Source | Typical Accuracy |
|----------|-------------|------------------|
| Sierra Chart (Denali feed) | Actual bid/ask tape | 99%+ |
| Bookmap | Actual bid/ask tape | 99%+ |
| NinjaTrader + Kinetick | Tick-level data | 95-99% |
| Jigsaw Daytradr | Reconstructed tape | 95-99% |
| **TradingView (this indicator)** | **Aggregated LTF sampling** | **85-90%** |
| Generic volume indicators | Basic volume only | 50-60% |
We're at the ceiling of what TradingView can provide. The dual data source approach, official library functions, and lower timeframe sampling squeeze out every drop of accuracy the platform allows.
But if you're a dedicated tape reader who needs to see every lot hitting the book, this isn't the tool for that. No TradingView indicator is. That's not a criticism—it's just the reality of the platform's architecture.

## Where This Indicator Works Best
### Primary Use Case: Index Futures
This indicator was built specifically for index futures traders. These instruments have the characteristics that make order flow analysis most reliable:
**The Big Four:**
| Symbol | Name | Why It Works |
|--------|------|--------------|
| **ES** | E-mini S&P 500 | Deepest liquidity in the world, tight spreads, clean delta readings |
| **NQ** | E-mini NASDAQ-100 | Massive volume, excellent uptick/downtick correlation |
| **YM** | E-mini Dow | Strong institutional participation, reliable volume data |
| **RTY** | E-mini Russell 2000 | Good liquidity, solid delta accuracy |
Index futures are ideal because:
- **Deep liquidity** — Thousands of contracts per minute means meaningful sample sizes
- **Tight spreads** — Usually 1 tick, so bid/ask attribution is more accurate
- **Continuous trading** — No gaps during RTH, consistent data flow
- **Institutional participation** — Real order flow, not retail noise
- **Official CME volume** — Accurate, exchange-reported data
If you're trading ES, NQ, YM, or RTY on TradingView, this indicator will give you the most accurate order flow approximation the platform can provide.
---
### Secondary Use Cases
**Other Liquid Futures:**
- CL, GC, SI (commodities) — Work well but slightly less optimized
- 6E, 6B, 6J (currency futures) — Decent accuracy with good liquidity
**Large-Cap Stocks & ETFs:**
- SPY, QQQ, IWM
- AAPL, MSFT, NVDA, TSLA, AMD
- Any stock trading millions of shares daily
**Crypto (with caveats):**
- BTC, ETH on major exchanges
- Works best during active hours
- Quality varies by exchange data feed
**Best Timeframes:**
- 1-minute to 15-minute for active intraday trading
- The indicator automatically selects appropriate lower timeframe sampling
- Can work on higher timeframes but edge diminishes
---
## Where This Indicator Struggles
I could hide this section and let you figure it out the hard way. I'd rather just tell you.
**Low-Volume Stocks:**
If a stock trades 50,000 shares a day, the delta readings will be noisy and inconsistent. The uptick/downtick estimation needs sufficient trade activity to be meaningful.
**Wide-Spread Instruments:**
When spreads are 10+ cents wide, a trade at the ask doesn't necessarily indicate aggressive buying. The bid/ask classification becomes less reliable.
**Forex:**
TradingView shows broker-specific volume for forex, not actual market volume. Readings will vary wildly depending on your data provider. Use with extreme caution, or not at all.
**Pre-Market & After-Hours:**
Liquidity thins dramatically. Estimations become less reliable. I'd trust regular session data far more.
**Daily/Weekly/Monthly Charts:**
The aggregation becomes so smoothed that the edge largely disappears. This is designed for intraday analysis.
---
## How to Actually Use This
### Focus on Delta %, Not Raw Delta
Raw delta is influenced by overall volume. A 500-lot delta sounds significant until you realize the bar traded 50,000 lots—that's just 1% imbalance, which is noise.
Delta % normalizes this. Look for readings above ±30% to identify meaningful pressure. Above ±50% is strong. Above ±70% is extreme.
### Let the Colors Guide You
If a bar is gray, the market isn't showing its hand. Don't overanalyze it. When you see bright green or red cells, that's when something is happening.
### Confirm With Price Action
Order flow data is context, not a signal generator. A strong bullish delta at a key support level means something different than the same reading in the middle of nowhere.
Use this alongside your existing analysis—levels, structure, momentum—not as a replacement.
### Watch for Divergences
Price making new highs while delta turns negative? That's absorption—sellers stepping in but price hasn't reacted yet.
Price dropping but delta stays positive? Buyers are defending.
These divergences often precede reversals. They're where order flow analysis provides genuine edge.
### Adjust the Activity Threshold
The default is 25%. For volatile instruments like NQ futures, you might lower it to 20%. For calmer instruments, raise it to 30-35%. The goal is filtering noise while keeping meaningful signals visible.

## Understanding the Metrics
| Metric | What It Tells You |
|--------|-------------------|
| **Volume** | Total contracts/shares traded |
| **Delta** | Net buying minus selling volume |
| **Delta %** | How imbalanced the bar is (key metric) |
| **Bar Δ CVD** | Cumulative delta change for this bar |
| **Imbalance Ratio** | Buy:Sell ratio (e.g., 2.1:1 or 1:1.8) |
| **Bar VWAP** | Where most volume transacted within the bar |
| Delta % Range | Interpretation |
|---------------|----------------|
| 0-15% | Neutral, no clear pressure |
| 15-30% | Weak directional bias |
| 30-50% | Moderate pressure |
| 50-70% | Strong imbalance |
| 70%+ | Extreme one-sided flow |
| Color | Meaning |
|-------|---------|
| Gray | Low activity, likely noise |
| Muted Green | Mild buying pressure |
| Bright Green | Strong buying pressure |
| Muted Red | Mild selling pressure |

## A Note on Expectations
I built this to be the best possible order flow tool within TradingView's constraints. It uses every optimization available, presents data in a clean and functional way, and doesn't pretend to be something it's not.
But I want to be clear: if order flow is central to your strategy and you're making decisions based on tape reading, you should seriously consider platforms designed for that purpose. Sierra Chart, Bookmap, Jigsaw—these tools show you the actual order book and time & sales. The difference is substantial.
Think of Nexural OrderFlow Matrix as a bridge. It gives TradingView users access to order flow concepts with reasonable accuracy. For many traders, especially those combining multiple analysis methods, that's enough. For dedicated tape readers, it's a starting point that might inspire you to explore deeper tools.

## Final Thoughts
Trading is hard enough without tools that overpromise and underdeliver. I'd rather give you something that works within its limitations and be honest about those limitations than sell you a fantasy.
Nexural OrderFlow Matrix does what it says. It presents TradingView's best volume delta data in a clear, heatmap format with intelligent color coding. It's accurate within the platform's constraints. It's clean, it's fast, and it doesn't clutter your chart with noise.
Use it wisely. Combine it with price action, levels, and your own market understanding. And if you ever feel limited by what TradingView offers, know that there are deeper tools waiting for you when you're ready.
Trade well.

Aggressive VS Passive Orders Depletion @MaxMaserati 3.0Aggressive VS Passive Orders Depletion Indicator
Overview
This institutional-grade order flow analysis tool identifies and tracks limit order accumulation zones where significant buy and sell orders are placed in the market. It combines Highest Volume Candle Profile analysis with Market Structure detection to reveal where institutional traders have positioned their orders, and monitors in real-time whether these orders are being absorbed (depleted) or defended.
Core Concept: Order Block Detection & Depletion
This tool tracks the actual limit orders at key price levels and shows you:
Where institutional orders are placed (Buy Order Blocks vs Sell Order Blocks)
How strong these order zones are (original volume strength as %)
Real-time order flow activity (aggressive buyers vs aggressive sellers)
Depletion status (are the orders being consumed or defended?)
How It Works: Dual-Engine System
Engine 1: Volume Profile Analysis - Point of Control (POC) Detection
Divides price range into 25 horizontal levels (configurable)
Analyzes the last 120 bars (configurable lookback)
Distributes volume across price levels based on where each bar traded
Identifies the Point of Control (POC) - the price level with highest traded volume
Determines market bias: Bullish if price above POC, Bearish if below
Purpose: Shows where the majority of volume has been traded, indicating institutional accumulation zones and fair value areas.
Engine 2: Market Structure Analysis (PHL - Pivot High/Low)
Uses fractal pivot detection (configurable strength)
Identifies swing highs and lows that create market structure
Tracks Break of Structure (BOS) - price breaks recent swing in trend direction
Tracks Market Structure Shift (MSS) - price breaks swing points against trend
Maintains a trailing price at the most recent significant swing point
Purpose: Identifies where smart money is likely defending key structural levels with limit orders.
Key Innovation #1: Dynamic Confluence Zone Detection
When the Volume Profile POC and Market Structure trail price align within a configurable sensitivity threshold (default 1.0%), the indicator creates an Order Block Zone.
The Algorithm:
Monitors both engines continuously
Creates zones ONLY when POC is within X% of the structural swing point
Both engines must agree on the significance of the price level
Optional volume confirmation filter
This dual-confirmation approach filters out weak levels and highlights only the highest-probability zones where institutional orders are likely clustered.
Zone Types:
🟢 Buy Order Blocks (Support) - Created when confluence occurs with price above the zone. Represents accumulated buy limit orders waiting to support price.
🔴 Sell Order Blocks (Resistance) - Created when confluence occurs with price below the zone. Represents accumulated sell limit orders waiting to resist price.
Key Innovation #2: Real-Time Aggressive VS Passive Order Flow Analysis
The indicator performs sophisticated order flow decomposition on each candle that interacts with a zone, separating market activity into distinct categories:
Order Flow Categories:
1. Aggressive Orders - Market orders that consume liquidity
Aggressive Buy Volume: Market buys hitting sell limits (taking offers)
Aggressive Sell Volume: Market sells hitting buy limits (hitting bids)
Marked with (AGG) label when detected
Indicates urgent traders willing to pay the spread
2. Passive Orders - Limit orders adding liquidity
Passive Buy Volume: New buy limits being placed (making bids)
Passive Sell Volume: New sell limits being placed (making offers)
Shows patient traders providing liquidity
3. New Order Flow - Fresh buying/selling pressure
New Buyers: Total new buying activity (aggressive + passive)
New Sellers: Total new selling activity (aggressive + passive)
Net pressure indicator for zone health
Key Innovation #3: Advanced Order Flow Decomposition Algorithm
The indicator uses a proprietary candle analysis formula to separate aggressive from passive orders based on two key metrics:
Key Metrics:
Body Strength = |Close - Open| / (High - Low)
Close Position = (Close - Low) / (High - Low)
Bullish Candle Analysis:
Strong Aggressive Buying (Close Position ≥ 0.8 AND Body Strength ≥ 0.7):
90% aggressive buying, 10% passive selling, 90% new buyers
Moderate Aggressive Buying (Close Position ≥ 0.6 AND Body Strength ≥ 0.5):
70% aggressive buying, 20% passive selling, 80% new buyers, 20% new sellers
Weak Bullish (Close Position ≥ 0.5):
0-30% aggressive buying, 20-30% passive selling, 60% new buyers, 40% new sellers
Very Weak Bullish (Close Position < 0.5):
0% aggressive buying, 40% passive selling, 40% new buyers, 60% new sellers
Bearish Candle Analysis:
Strong Aggressive Selling (Close Position ≤ 0.2 AND Body Strength ≥ 0.7):
90% aggressive selling, 10% passive buying, 90% new sellers
Moderate Aggressive Selling (Close Position ≤ 0.4 AND Body Strength ≥ 0.5):
70% aggressive selling, 20% passive buying, 80% new sellers, 20% new buyers
Weak Bearish (Close Position ≤ 0.5):
0-30% aggressive selling, 20-30% passive buying, 60% new sellers, 40% new buyers
Very Weak Bearish (Close Position > 0.5):
0% aggressive selling, 40% passive buying, 40% new sellers, 60% new buyers
What This Reveals:
High close position + strong body = Aggressive buying overwhelming sellers
Low close position + strong body = Aggressive selling overwhelming buyers
Mid-range close = Battle between buyers and sellers
Small body = Passive orders dominating (limit orders being placed, not filled)
Key Innovation #4: Dynamic Depletion System with Intelligent Thresholds
The indicator adapts depletion thresholds based on zone strength:
High Liquidity Zones (>300% volume strength):
Depletion at 40% consumption - Massive clusters considered broken early because partial depletion indicates institutional withdrawal
Medium Liquidity Zones (150-300% volume strength):
Depletion at 60% consumption - Standard institutional behavior, majority must be consumed
Normal Liquidity Zones (75-150% volume strength):
Depletion at 80% consumption - Retail and smaller institutional zones need near-complete absorption
Low Liquidity Zones (<75% volume strength):
Depletion at 100% consumption - Weak zones must be fully absorbed before marked depleted
Why This Matters:
Strong zones failing early = powerful reversal signal (institutions gave up)
Weak zones holding = hidden strength (more orders being added)
Adaptive logic prevents false signals from fixed thresholds
Depletion Formula:
For Buy Order Zones:
Zone Liquidity % = (Original Buy Volume / Average Volume) × 100
Consumed % = (Sell Volume Absorbed / Average Volume) × 100
If Consumed Volume > Dynamic Threshold → Zone DEPLETED
For Sell Order Zones:
Zone Liquidity % = (Original Sell Volume / Average Volume) × 100
Consumed % = (Buy Volume Absorbed / Average Volume) × 100
If Consumed Volume > Dynamic Threshold → Zone DEPLETED
Key Innovation #5: Absorption Detection & Battle Analysis
The indicator identifies when one side is overwhelming the other using a configurable Absorption Threshold (default 1.5x = 50% more volume).
Battle States for Buy Order Blocks:
New Buyers Dominating (New Buyers > New Sellers × 1.5):
Label: ↑ New Buyers: +X% - Buy orders successfully defended
Sellers Attacking (New Sellers > New Buyers × 1.5):
Label: ↓ Sellers Attack: +X% (AGG) - Sell orders overwhelming the zone
Active Battle (Both active, <1.5x ratio):
Label: Battle: B+X% vs S+Y% - Active two-way order flow
Quiet Zone (Minimal activity):
Label: ↔ Quiet: X% - Zone untested or ignored
Battle States for Sell Order Blocks:
New Sellers Dominating (New Sellers > New Buyers × 1.5):
Label: ↓ New Sellers: +X% - Sell orders successfully defended
Buyers Absorbing (New Buyers > New Sellers × 1.5):
Label: ↑ Buyers Absorb: +X% (AGG) - Buy orders overwhelming the zone
Active Battle (Both active, <1.5x ratio):
Label: Battle: S+X% vs B+Y% - Active two-way order flow
Quiet Zone (Minimal activity):
Label: ↔ Quiet: X% - Zone untested or ignored
The (AGG) Marker:
Appears when aggressive market orders are detected (high body strength + extreme close position). Indicates institutional-sized urgency—someone is willing to pay market price NOW. Often precedes breakouts or strong continuations.
Label System Explained
No Label = Untested Zone
When a zone is first created, you see ONLY the colored box with NO label. This means:
Price has NOT yet reached this order block
The limit orders are still pending/resting
The zone is a future area of interest
Labels only appear after first price contact
Label Format (After First Touch):
Line 1: ● XX% Order Type
Line 2: Flow Analysis
Example Labels:
Buy Order Blocks:
● 150% Buy Orders + ↑ New Buyers: +85%
● 150% Buy Orders + ↑ New Buyers: +120% (AGG)
● 150% Buy Orders + Battle: B+45% vs S+38%
● 150% Buy Orders + ↓ Sellers Attack: +95% (AGG)
● 150% Buy Orders + ↓ Sellers Attack: +95% (AGG)
● 150% Buy Orders
Sell Order Blocks:
● 200% Sell Orders + ↓ New Sellers: +110%
● 200% Sell Orders + ↓ New Sellers: +140% (AGG)
● 200% Sell Orders + Battle: S+62% vs B+41%
● 200% Sell Orders + ↑ Buyers Absorb: +88% (AGG)
● 200% Sell Orders + ↑ Buyers Absorb: +88% (AGG)
● 200% Sell Orders
Status Indicators:
- Price penetrated through the zone
- Orders fully consumed, zone exhausted
Gray color - Zone no longer active
Directional Arrows:
↑ - Upward pressure (buyers stronger)
↓ - Downward pressure (sellers stronger)
↔ - Balanced/quiet (low activity)
↗ / ↘ - Mixed battle with bias
Point of Control (POC) Sub-Level Analysis
Each order block contains advanced volume distribution tracking:
Multi-Level Analysis (default 5 levels): Zones subdivided into horizontal price levels
Volume Distribution: Every candle's volume distributed across sub-levels based on price overlap
Buy/Sell Separation: Each level tracks buy vs sell volume independently
Dynamic POC Line: Marks the price level with highest traded volume within the zone
Real-Time Updates: POC adjusts as new volume enters, showing where "fairest price" is migrating
Style Options: Solid, Dashed, or Dotted lines (configurable width 1-5)
POC Trading Significance:
Represents the most accepted price within the order block
Often the best entry price for limit orders (highest liquidity)
POC migration shows whether zone is being "worked higher" or "worked lower"
Breaking through POC often signals zone failure

Auction Theory Support & Resistance Flipper @MaxMaserati 3.0The Auction Theory Support & Resistance Flipper @MaxMaserati 3.0 indicator identifies and tracks volume-based support and resistance levels using an auction market theory approach. It automatically detects price swing points and creates dynamic "defense zones" where significant volume activity occurred, then monitors these zones to determine if they're being defended or overwhelmed by market participants.
Key Features:
1. Automatic Level Detection
Uses fractal swing detection to identify key reversal points
Creates support zones at swing lows where buyers defended price
Creates resistance zones at swing highs where sellers defended price
2. Volume-Based Validation
Only displays levels with significant volume (above threshold)
Volume strength shown as percentage relative to average volume
Visual volume boxes scale with strength (optional)
3. Auction Status Tracking
The indicator monitors each level and displays real-time auction status through labels:
IMPORTANT - Box Without Label:
When a level is first created, it shows ONLY the box/line with NO label
This means price has NOT yet visited/tested this defense level
The auction has not started yet - it's a pending defense zone
Labels ONLY appear after price touches the zone for the first time
Label Formats (3 modes available once price visits):
Compact Mode: 150% ↑
First number = Original volume strength percentage
Symbol shows auction status (↑↑ Strong Defense, ↑ Defending, ↓ Under Pressure, ↓↓ Overwhelmed, ⇌ Balanced, ✓ Finished, ⚡ Flipped)
Full Mode: 150% | ↑ Defending Auction 45%
Volume strength | Status description | Excess volume percentage
Touch Only: Labels appear only after price touches the level (same as default behavior)
Auction States (after first touch):
Unfinished Auction (⏳): Recently touched, minimal volume absorbed (< 30%)
Balanced Auction (⇌): Volume matching original defense, equilibrium
Defending Auction (↑/↓): Successfully defending with excess volume (20-100%)
Strong Defense Auction (↑↑/↓↓): Overwhelming defense volume (>100%)
Under Pressure (↑/↓): Defense weakening, opposite volume building
Overwhelmed (↑↑/↓↓): Defense broken, significant opposite volume (>50%)
Finished Auction (✓): Volume threshold met (100%+), level depleted
Flipped Level (⚡): Support became resistance or vice versa
4. Support/Resistance Flip Detection
Automatically detects when a support level fails and becomes resistance
Or when resistance breaks and becomes support
Visual indication with orange background and ⚡ symbol
Continues tracking until new auction finishes
5. Summary Table
Active Levels count
Breakdown by Support/Resistance
Number of flipped levels
Maximum volume strength currently active
Settings:
Volume Analysis: Lookback period and threshold multiplier
Auction Management: Depletion threshold, bars away to finish, merge distance
Visual Options: Show/hide boxes, labels, depleted levels
Label Customization: Compact/Full/Touch Only modes, size options
Colors: Buyers (green), Sellers (red), Flipped (orange), Depleted (gray)

Burry Bubble DetectorThis indicator implements Michael Burry's bubble detection methodology, originally outlined in his famous 2020 analysis of GameStop (GME). Burry identified extreme bubble conditions when a stock's price significantly deviates from its fundamental book value, specifically when the Price-to-Book ratio exceeds extreme multiples.
The indicator creates valuation zones based on book value per share and identifies when a stock enters bubble territory according to Burry's criteria:
• Deep Value Zone: Price ≤ 0.5x Book Value (Burry's preferred buying area)
• Fair Value: Price between 0.5x and 1.5x Book Value
• Bubble Warning: Price exceeds user-defined multiple of book value (default 3x)
• Extreme Bubble: Price exceeds higher multiple of book value (default 5x)
Key features include:
Visual bubble zones with dynamic background coloring
Price-to-Book ratio monitoring
Speculation Score combining valuation extremes, volume spikes, and volatility
Entry signals when price enters the deep value zone
Comprehensive dashboard displaying current valuation zone and key metrics
The indicator requires user input of fundamental data (book value and shares outstanding) to establish the baseline valuation framework. Once configured, it continuously monitors whether the current price represents fair value or extreme speculation relative to the company's book value.
This methodology is particularly useful for identifying when stocks have detached from fundamental value and entered unsustainable bubble conditions, regardless of short-term price momentum. Additional Publishing Information:
When publishing, you may want to include the following notes in the description or as additional context:
"This indicator requires proper configuration of fundamental inputs (book value and shares outstanding) for accurate bubble detection. These values should be updated periodically to reflect the company's current financial position. The indicator is most effective when used with companies that have meaningful book value and where Price-to-Book serves as a relevant valuation metric.
The bubble detection framework is based on the principle that sustained prices significantly exceeding several multiples of book value represent speculative excess rather than fundamental value creation."
This description clearly explains the theoretical foundation of the indicator, its operational requirements, and the specific methodology it implements. The tags cover the key concepts and make the indicator discoverable for users specifically interested in value investing, bubble detection, and fundamental valuation analysis.
HTF Scanner Pro | High Tight Flag | Leif Soreide📊 HTF Scanner Pro| High Tight Flag Pattern Detector
🎯 Overview
HTF Scanner Pro is a professional-grade pattern recognition indicator designed to identify one of the most powerful and rare chart patterns in technical analysis: the High Tight Flag (HTF). Based on the rigorous research of William O'Neil (founder of Investor's Business Daily and creator of CANSLIM) and refined by Leif Soreide's extensive pattern studies, this indicator provides institutional-level pattern detection with a premium visual experience.
The High Tight Flag pattern historically delivers 69-85% success rates when properly identified, making it one of the most reliable bullish continuation patterns. However, it's extremely rare—you might only see 2-5 valid setups per year across thousands of stocks. This indicator does the heavy lifting of scanning and scoring potential setups so you never miss an opportunity.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
⚡ Key Features
🔬 6-Component Scoring System (0-10 Scale)
Each potential HTF pattern is analyzed across six critical dimensions:
│ Pole │ 25% │ Explosive advance (90-120%+ in 4-8 weeks)
│ Flag │ 25% │ Tight consolidation (10-25% pullback, above 50-MA)
│ Volume │ 20% │ Heavy pole volume, dry flag volume, breakout surge
│ Technical │ 15% │ New highs, relative strength, MA positioning
│ Breakout │ 10% │ Proximity to pivot, R:R ratio, target potential
│ Catalyst │ 5% │ Fundamental catalyst proxy via price/volume action
📈 Pattern Detection Criteria (O'Neil/Soreide Standards)
THE POLE (Flagpole):
- ✅ Minimum 90% advance (100-120%+ is ideal)
- ✅ Occurs within 4-8 weeks (20-40 trading days)
- ✅ Heavy volume (40-100%+ above average)
- ✅ More up days than down days (clean advance)
- ✅ Usually triggered by fundamental catalyst
THE FLAG (Consolidation):
- ✅ Shallow pullback of only 10-25% from pole high
- ✅ Duration: 1-3 weeks ideal, max 5 weeks
- ✅ MUST stay above 50-day moving average
- ✅ Volume dries up significantly (supply exhaustion)
- ✅ Tight, low-volatility price action
BREAKOUT CONFIRMATION:
- ✅ Price breaks above flag high + $0.10 (classic O'Neil rule)
- ✅ Volume surges 50%+ above average
- ✅ Risk/Reward typically 3:1 or better
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

📚 Educational Notes
Why HTF Patterns Work
The High Tight Flag represents the ultimate supply/demand imbalance:
- Explosive Pole: Institutions aggressively accumulate, driving price up 100%+
- Tight Flag: Weak hands sell, but no significant supply emerges
- Breakout: Remaining supply absorbed, price explodes to new highs
Historical Performance
According to O'Neil's research and Soreide's studies:
- Success rate: 69-85% when all criteria are met
- Average gain from breakout: 100-200%+
- Failure rate increases significantly if criteria are relaxed
Common Mistakes to Avoid
❌ Buying before breakout confirmation
❌ Ignoring volume requirements
❌ Trading flags that broke below 50-MA
❌ Accepting pullbacks deeper than 25%
❌ Trading old poles (flag must form immediately afterpole)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This indicator is a tool to assist with pattern identification and should not be considered financial advice. Always:
- Conduct your own due diligence
- Manage risk appropriately
- Use proper position sizing
- Consider fundamental analysis alongside technical signals
Past performance of the High Tight Flag pattern does not guarantee future results.

Confluence Engine [BullByte]CONFLUENCE ENGINE
Multi-Factor Technical Analysis Framework
OVERVIEW
Confluence Engine is a multi-dimensional technical analysis framework that evaluates market conditions across five distinct analytical pillars simultaneously. Rather than relying on a single indicator or signal source, this tool synthesizes Structure, Momentum, Volume, Volatility, and Pattern analysis into a unified scoring system that identifies high-probability trading opportunities when multiple technical factors align.
The core philosophy behind this indicator stems from a fundamental observation: isolated signals frequently fail, but when multiple independent analytical methods agree, the probability of a successful trade increases substantially. This indicator was developed after extensive research into why traders often receive conflicting signals from different indicators on their charts, leading to analysis paralysis and poor decision-making.
THE PROBLEM AND SOLUTION
The Problem:
Most traders use multiple indicators independently, often receiving contradictory signals. One indicator says "buy" while another says "wait." This creates confusion and leads to missed opportunities, premature entries based on incomplete analysis, difficulty quantifying how strong a setup actually is, and inconsistent decision-making across different market conditions.
The Solution:
Confluence Engine addresses this by providing a single, unified score (0-100) that represents the aggregate strength of a trading setup. Instead of mentally weighing five different indicators, traders receive a clear numerical score indicating setup quality, visual tier classification (ULTRA, HIGH, STANDARD), specific identification of which factors are strong or weak, and actionable guidance on what to watch for next.
THE FIVE ANALYTICAL DIMENSIONS
Each dimension was selected because it measures a fundamentally different aspect of market behavior:
STRUCTURE ANALYSIS
Evaluates price position relative to key levels and recent swing points. Markets respect structure - previous highs, lows, and areas where price reversed. This dimension identifies when price interacts with these critical levels and measures the quality of that interaction.
What it detects: Price approaching or sweeping swing highs/lows, reclaim patterns after false breakouts, EMA alignment and trend structure, exhaustion after extended moves.
MOMENTUM ANALYSIS
Measures the underlying strength and direction of price movement. Strong moves are characterized by momentum preceding price. This dimension evaluates whether momentum supports the current price direction.
What it detects: Oversold/overbought conditions with reversal potential, momentum divergence states, directional movement strength (ADX-based), momentum shifts before price confirmation.
VOLUME ANALYSIS
Volume validates price movement. Significant moves require participation. This dimension measures current volume relative to recent averages to determine if market participants are genuinely committing to the move.
What it detects: Volume spikes confirming price action, below-average volume warning of weak moves, climactic volume at potential reversals, volume confirmation of rejection patterns.
VOLATILITY ANALYSIS
Markets alternate between compression (low volatility) and expansion (high volatility). This dimension identifies these phases and recognizes when compression is likely to resolve into directional movement.
What it detects: Volatility squeeze conditions (Bollinger inside Keltner), squeeze release direction, ATR expansion indicating breakout potential, compression duration for timing breakouts.
PATTERN ANALYSIS
Candlestick patterns reflect the battle between buyers and sellers within each bar. This dimension evaluates the quality and context of reversal and continuation patterns.
What it detects: Engulfing patterns with quality scoring, hammer and shooting star formations, rejection wicks indicating trapped traders, pattern confluence with other factors.
WHAT MAKES THIS INDICATOR ORIGINAL Not a mashup
This is NOT a mashup of indicators displayed together. The Confluence Engine represents an integrated analytical framework with the following unique characteristics:
Unified Scoring System: All five dimensions feed into a proprietary scoring algorithm that weights and combines their signals. The output is a single 0-100 score, not five separate readings.
Multi-Factor Gate: Beyond just scoring, the system requires a minimum number of factors to be "active" (meeting their individual thresholds) before allowing signals. This prevents signals based on one extremely strong factor masking four weak ones.
Regime-Aware Adjustments: The engine detects the current market regime (trending, ranging, volatile, weak) and automatically adjusts factor weights and score multipliers. A structure signal means something different in a trending market versus a ranging market.
Adaptive Risk Management: Take-profit and stop-loss levels are not static. They adapt based on current volatility, market regime, and signal quality - providing tighter targets in low-volatility environments and wider targets when volatility expands.
Liquidity Sweep Detection: A distinctive feature that identifies when price has swept beyond a swing high/low and then reclaimed back inside. This pattern often indicates stop hunts followed by reversals.
Signal Quality Tiers: Rather than just "signal" or "no signal," the engine classifies setups into tiers. ULTRA (80+) represents highest probability setups with all factors aligned. HIGH (70-79) represents strong setups with multiple factors confirming. STANDARD meets minimum threshold for acceptable setups.
HOW THE SCORING WORKS
Each of the five factors generates a raw score from 0-100 based on current market conditions. These raw scores are then weighted according to the selected trading style (Balanced, Scalper, Swing, Range, Trend), adjusted based on current market regime detection, modified by higher timeframe alignment (if enabled), bonused when multiple factors exceed their activation thresholds simultaneously, and multiplied by session factors (if session filter is enabled).
The result is a final Bull Score and Bear Score, each ranging from 0-100, representing the current strength of long and short setups respectively.
Signal Generation Requirements:
- Score meets minimum threshold (configurable: 60-95)
- Required number of factors are "active" (default: 3 of 5)
- Market regime is not blocked (if blocking enabled)
- Higher timeframe alignment passes (if required)
- Cooldown period from last signal has elapsed
UNDERSTANDING THE DASHBOARDS
Main Dashboard (Top Right)
The main dashboard displays real-time scores and market context:
LONG Score - Current bullish setup strength (0-100) with quality tier displayed
SHORT Score - Current bearish setup strength (0-100) with quality tier displayed
Regime - Current market state showing TREND UP, TREND DN, VOLATILE, RANGE, or WEAK
HTF - Higher timeframe alignment showing BULL, BEAR, NEUT, or OFF
Squeeze - Volatility state showing SQZ (in squeeze), REL+ (bullish release), REL- (bearish release), or NORM
Gate - Factor count versus requirement, for example 4/3 means 4 factors active with 3 required
Sweep L/S - Liquidity sweep status for long and short setups
ATR% - Current ATR as percentile of recent range indicating relative volatility
Vol - Current volume relative to 20-period average
R:R - Current risk-reward ratio based on adaptive TP/SL calculations
Trade - Active trade status and unrealized profit/loss percentage
Analysis Dashboard (Bottom Left)
The analysis dashboard provides actionable guidance:
Signal Readiness - Visual progress bars showing how close each direction is to generating a signal
Blocking Factors - Identifies which specific factor is weakest and preventing signals
Recommended Action - Context-aware guidance such as WATCH, WAIT, MANAGE, or SCAN
Watch For - Specific events to monitor for setup completion
Opportunity Level - Overall market opportunity rating from EXCELLENT to VERY POOR
Timing - Contextual timing guidance based on current conditions
Status Bar (Bottom Center)
Compact view displaying Long Score, Gate Status, Current State, Gate Status, and Short Score in a single row for quick reference.
Dashboard Size - Auto Mode Explained
When Dashboard Size is set to "Auto", the indicator intelligently adjusts text size based on your current chart timeframe to optimize readability:
Auto-Sizing Logic:
1-Minute to 5-Minute Charts → Tiny
- Lower timeframes show more bars on screen
- Tiny text prevents dashboard from obscuring price action
- Recommended for scalping and high-frequency monitoring
15-Minute Charts → Small
- Balanced size for intraday trading
- Readable without being intrusive
1-Hour to Daily Charts → Normal
- Standard size for most trading styles
- Optimal readability for swing trading
Weekly and Monthly Charts → Large
- Larger text for position trading
- Fewer bars visible so space is available
Manual Override:
You can override auto-sizing for any dashboard individually:
- Dashboard Size (All): Sets master size applied to all dashboards
- Main Dashboard Size: Override for top-right dashboard specifically
- Analysis Panel Size: Override for bottom-left panel specifically
- Status Bar Size: Override for bottom-center bar specifically
Example Use Case:
Trading on 5m chart (default = Tiny) but you have good eyesight and large monitor:
- Set "Dashboard Size (All)" to "Small" or "Normal" for better readability
- Individual dashboards will use your override instead of auto-sizing
Recommendation:
Start with Auto mode and only adjust if dashboards are too large or too small for your monitor/eyesight.
UNDERSTANDING SIGNAL LABELS
When a signal generates, a label appears with trade information:
Minimal Style Example:
LONG 85
Shows tier icon, direction, and score only.
Detailed Style Example:
ULTRA LONG
Score: 85
Entry: 50250.50
TP1: 50650.25
TP2: 51500.75
SL: 49850.25
R:R 1:2.5
Regime: TREND UP
HTF: BULL
Tier Icons Explained:
indicates ULTRA quality with score 80 or higher
indicates HIGH quality with score between 70 and 79
indicates STANDARD quality with score meeting minimum threshold
UNDERSTANDING TRADE ZONES
When a signal generates, visual elements appear on the chart:
Entry Line (Purple) marks the entry price level
TP1 Line (Blue Dashed) marks the first take-profit target
TP2 Line (Cyan Dashed) marks the final take-profit target
SL Line (Orange Dotted) marks the stop-loss level
Trade Zone Box shows shaded area from SL to TP2
These elements extend forward as price progresses. When TP1 is hit, its line becomes solid to indicate achievement. When the trade completes at either TP2 or SL, all elements are cleaned up and the entry label converts to a compact ghost label for historical reference.
Exit Labels Explained:
+X.XX% indicates first target reached with partial profit secured
+X.XX% indicates full target reached with maximum profit achieved
-X.XX% indicates stop-loss triggered
TP1 Hit, SL... indicates stopped out after TP1 was already hit (optional display)
OPPOSITE SIGNAL HANDLING
When market conditions shift dramatically, the engine may generate a signal in the opposite direction while an existing trade is active. This represents a significant change in confluence and is handled automatically:
Automatic Trade Reversal Process:
1. Detection: New signal triggers opposite to current trade direction (e.g., SHORT signal while LONG trade is active)
2. Current Trade Closure:
- All visual elements (entry line, TP/SL lines, trade zone) are deleted
- Current trade is marked as closed
3. Entry Label Conversion:
- The detailed entry label is converted to a compact ghost label
- Ghost label shows direction + score (e.g., "LONG 75")
- Marked with "OPP" outcome to indicate opposite signal closure
- Moved to a non-interfering position below/above price
4. New Trade Initialization:
- Fresh entry label created for new direction
- New TP1, TP2, SL levels calculated based on new signal quality
- Trade zone and price lines drawn for new trade
Example Scenario:
You enter a LONG trade at score 72. Price moves sideways for 8 bars, then market structure breaks down. Confluence shifts heavily bearish with a sweep reclaim bear + momentum + volume spike, generating a SHORT signal at score 81. The engine automatically:
- Closes the LONG trade
- Converts "LONG 72" entry label to a small ghost label
- Opens new SHORT trade at current price
- Displays new SHORT entry label with full trade details
Trading Implication:
This behavior ensures the engine is always aligned with the highest-probability direction based on current confluence. It prevents you from holding a position when all five factors have flipped against you.
Note: This does NOT happen for every small score change. The opposite signal must meet all signal generation requirements (minimum score, gate pass, regime check, HTF alignment) before triggering. Typically occurs during strong trend reversals or major support/resistance breaks.

Interpretation
The engine produced a standard short (Score 64) while the market showed elevated volume and volatility but no HTF confirmation. Although the Gate passed (3/3), Structure = 0 blocks the indicator from issuing fresh entries — this is intentional and by design: one missing factor (structure) is enough to prevent new signals even when other factors look supportive. The currently open short is being managed (partial targets and SL visible), but the system's recommendation is to manage the existing trade only and not open new shorts until structure or HTF alignment improves.
Why this example matters (teaching point)
-Gate ≠ Go: Gate pass (factor count) alone does not force fresh trades — the system enforces additional checks (structure, regime, HTF) to avoid lower-quality setups.
-Volume & Volatility are necessary but not sufficient: High volume and wide ATR create movement but do not replace structural validation.
-Active trade vs new entries: The script will continue to manage an already open trade but will not create a new signal while a blocking factor remains. This prevents overtrading and reduces false positives.
-Practical trader actions shown by the example
-Manage existing SHORT only: Trail to breakeven if TP1 is taken; scale out at TP1; hold remaining if price respects trend and structure reclaims.
-Do not add fresh positions: Wait for Structure > 0 or a HTF alignment that lifts the block.
-Watch for signals that matter: Sweep reclaim, HTF alignment turning bullish for shorts (i.e., HTF changes to BEAR), or a squeeze release with volume spike — these can clear the blocker and validate new entries.
RECOMMENDED TIMEFRAMES
For Scalping on 1m, 5m, or 15m charts: Use higher factor thresholds and shorter cooldowns. The faster pace requires stricter filtering.
For Day Trading on 15m, 30m, or 1H charts: This provides a balance of signal frequency and reliability suitable for most active traders.
For Swing Trading on 1H, 4H, or Daily charts: Expect higher quality signals with longer hold periods and fewer false signals.
For Position Trading on Daily or Weekly charts: Focus on ULTRA signals only for maximum conviction on longer-term positions.
Higher Timeframe Alignment Recommendations:
When trading 5m, use 1H as your HTF
When trading 15m, use 1H or 4H as your HTF
When trading 1H, use 4H or Daily as your HTF
When trading 4H, use Daily as your HTF
The general rule is to select an HTF that is 4 to 12 times your trading timeframe.
TRADING STYLE PRESETS
Balanced (Default)
Equal weighting across all five factors at 20% each. Suitable for most market conditions and recommended as starting point.
Scalper
Emphasizes Volume at 30% and Volatility at 30%. Designed for quick in-and-out trades on lower timeframes where immediate momentum and volatility expansion matter most.
Swing Trader
Emphasizes Structure at 30% and Momentum at 30%. Focuses on catching larger moves where trend direction and key levels are paramount.
Range Trader
Emphasizes Structure at 35% and Pattern at 25%. Optimized for sideways markets where support/resistance levels and reversal patterns dominate.
Trend Follower
Emphasizes Momentum at 40%. Designed for trending markets where staying with the dominant direction is the priority.
QUALITY MODE SETTINGS
Custom Mode
Set your own minimum score threshold. Lower thresholds between 60 and 65 generate more signals but with lower average quality. Higher thresholds of 75 or above generate fewer but higher-quality signals.
High Quality Mode
Uses minimum score of 70. Recommended for most users as it filters out marginal setups while still providing reasonable signal frequency.
Ultra Only Mode
Uses minimum score of 80 for maximum selectivity. Only the highest-conviction setups generate signals. Recommended for swing and position traders or during uncertain market conditions.
REGIME DETECTION
The engine continuously evaluates market conditions and classifies them into five states:
TREND UP
Characteristics: Strong ADX reading with EMAs aligned in bullish order
Trading Implications: Long signals receive score boost while short signals are suppressed. Momentum factor gains additional weight.
TREND DN
Characteristics: Strong ADX reading with EMAs aligned in bearish order
Trading Implications: Short signals receive score boost while long signals are suppressed. Momentum factor gains additional weight.
VOLATILE
Characteristics: High ATR percentile, wide Bollinger Bands, elevated volume
Trading Implications: Both directions remain viable but wider stops are recommended. Volume factor gains additional weight.
RANGE
Characteristics: Low ADX reading, narrow Bollinger Bands, low ATR percentile
Trading Implications: Structure signals are emphasized while momentum signals are suppressed. Pattern recognition becomes more important.
WEAK
Characteristics: Unclear or mixed conditions that do not fit other categories
Trading Implications: Reduced confidence in all signals. Consider waiting for clearer market conditions.
Filter Mode Options:
Off - Regime is detected and displayed but no score adjustments are applied
Adjust Scores - Automatically modifies factor weights based on current regime
Block Weak Regimes - Prevents signals from generating when regime is RANGE or WEAK
VOLATILITY SQUEEZE DETECTION
A volatility squeeze occurs when Bollinger Bands contract inside the Keltner Channel, indicating reduced volatility and potential energy building for a breakout.
Squeeze States Explained:
SQZ with bar count (example: SQZ 15)
Indicates currently in squeeze for the displayed number of bars. A score penalty is applied during this phase because compression represents uncertainty about direction.
REL+ (Release Bullish)
Indicates squeeze has released with price above the basis line. Score bonus is applied for long setups as this often precedes strong upward moves.
REL- (Release Bearish)
Indicates squeeze has released with price below the basis line. Score bonus is applied for short setups as this often precedes strong downward moves.
NORM (Normal)
No active squeeze detected. Standard scoring applies.
Trading Implication:
Squeeze releases often produce strong directional moves. The engine detects both the squeeze duration and the release direction, awarding bonus points to signals that align with the release. Longer squeeze duration often corresponds to more powerful breakouts.
LIQUIDITY SWEEP DETECTION
Markets often sweep beyond obvious support and resistance levels to trigger stops before reversing. The engine detects these patterns:
Bullish Sweep Reclaim
Price sweeps below recent swing low, triggering stop losses, then reclaims back above the swing low. This often indicates smart money accumulation after retail stops are collected.
Bearish Sweep Reclaim
Price sweeps above recent swing high, triggering stop losses, then reclaims back below the swing high. This often indicates smart money distribution after retail stops are collected.
Sweep Status in Dashboard:
RCL (Reclaim) - Reclaim has been confirmed. This receives highest structure score as the pattern is complete.
PND (Pending) - Sweep has occurred and price is near the level but full reclaim not yet confirmed. Watching for completion.
ACT (Active) - Sweep is currently in progress with price beyond the swing level.
Dash (-) - No sweep activity detected.
MULTI-FACTOR GATE SYSTEM
Beyond overall score, the engine counts how many individual factors meet their activation threshold.
Example Calculation:
Structure score 45 with threshold 35 equals ACTIVE
Momentum score 25 with threshold 30 equals INACTIVE
Volume score 50 with threshold 35 equals ACTIVE
Volatility score 40 with threshold 30 equals ACTIVE
Pattern score 35 with threshold 30 equals ACTIVE
Result: 4 of 5 factors are active
If minimum required factors is set to 3, this example passes the gate and receives a 4-factor bonus.
Gate Bonuses:
4 factors active adds 8 points to final score (default setting)
5 factors active adds 15 points to final score (perfect confluence)
Purpose:
This mechanism prevents scenarios where one extremely high factor score masks four weak factors. A score of 75 with only 2 active factors is less reliable than a score of 70 with 4 active factors.
ADAPTIVE RISK MANAGEMENT
Take-profit and stop-loss distances adjust dynamically based on three inputs:
Volatility Influence (default 40% weight)
Low ATR percentile produces tighter targets
High ATR percentile produces wider targets
This ensures stops are not too tight in volatile conditions or too wide in calm conditions.
Regime Influence (default 30% weight)
Trending market with aligned signal produces extended targets
Ranging market produces contracted targets
Volatile regime produces wider stops for protection
Score Influence (default 30% weight)
ULTRA signals (high conviction) receive extended targets
STANDARD signals receive standard targets
Higher conviction justifies larger profit expectations.
You can configure the weight of each influence in settings to match your trading style.
SESSION FILTER (Optional Feature)
When enabled, the engine applies score multipliers based on the trading session:
Asian Session (default 0.9x multiplier)
Characterized by lower volatility and ranging tendency. Score reduction reflects reduced opportunity.
London Session (default 1.1x multiplier)
Characterized by high volatility and trend initiation. Score boost reflects increased opportunity.
London/NY Overlap (default 1.2x multiplier)
Characterized by highest liquidity and strongest moves. Maximum score boost reflects peak trading conditions.
New York Session (default 1.05x multiplier)
Characterized by volatility but typically after initial moves have occurred.
Configure your UTC offset in settings to align session detection with your chart timezone.

AUTOMATIC SETTINGS VALIDATION
The indicator performs comprehensive validation when first loaded on a chart. If configuration errors are detected, a warning label appears on the chart with specific guidance.
Critical Errors (Prevent Signal Generation):
ULTRA threshold must exceed HIGH threshold
- Example error: HIGH = 75, ULTRA = 70
- Fix: Ensure ULTRA threshold is higher than HIGH threshold
- Default safe values: HIGH = 70, ULTRA = 80
Minimum factors cannot exceed 5
- The gate requires 3 to 5 factors (you cannot require 6 of 5 factors)
- Fix: Set minimum active factors to 3, 4, or 5
TP2 multiplier must exceed TP1 multiplier
- Example error: TP1 = 3.0 ATR, TP2 = 2.0 ATR
- Fix: Ensure TP2 (final target) is farther than TP1 (partial target)
- Default safe values: TP1 = 2.0, TP2 = 5.0
Swing lookback minimum is 3 bars
- Liquidity sweep detection requires at least 3 bars to identify swing highs/lows
- Fix: Increase swing lookback period to 3 or higher
ATR period minimum is 5 bars
- ATR calculation requires sufficient data for accuracy
- Fix: Increase ATR period to 5 or higher (14 recommended)
Higher timeframe must be larger than chart timeframe
- Example error: Trading on 1H chart with MTF set to 15m
- Fix: Select HTF that is 4-12x your chart timeframe
- Example: If trading 15m, use 1H or 4H as HTF
Warnings (Signal Generation Continues):
Score threshold below 50 generates many signals
- Lower thresholds increase signal frequency but reduce quality
- Recommendation: Use minimum 60 for active trading, 70+ for swing trading
Cooldown below 3 bars may cause signal clustering
- Very short cooldowns can produce multiple signals in quick succession
- Recommendation: Use 5+ bars for lower timeframes, 3+ for higher timeframes

DEBUG MODE AND FACTOR MARKERS
The indicator includes optional debug tools for traders who want deeper insight into the scoring mechanics and factor analysis. These features are disabled by default to keep the chart clean but can be enabled in the Debug Mode settings group.
FACTOR MARKERS
When "Show Factor Markers" is enabled, visual shapes appear on the chart indicating confluence states:
Perfect Confluence (5/5 Factors Active)
A circle appears below the bar for bullish or above the bar for bearish setups. This represents maximum confluence where all five analytical dimensions meet their activation thresholds simultaneously. A small label showing "5/5" also appears. This is a rare occurrence and typically precedes the highest quality signals. Background color shifts to highlight this exceptional alignment.
Strong Confluence (4/5 Factors Active)
A diamond shape appears below the bar for bullish or above the bar for bearish setups. This represents strong confluence with four of five factors active. A label showing "4/5" appears when this state is first achieved. This level of confluence is associated with high-quality setups.
Ready Confluence (3/5 Factors Active)
A triangle appears below the bar (pointing up) for bullish or above the bar (pointing down) for bearish setups. This represents the minimum confluence level required when gate is set to 3 factors. No label appears for this level to reduce visual clutter.
Confluence Background
When factor markers are enabled, a subtle background color appears indicating the current confluence state. Stronger colors indicate higher confluence levels. Bullish confluence shows green tints while bearish confluence shows red tints.
Purpose of Factor Markers:
These markers help traders visualize when confluence is building before a signal triggers. You might see a 4/5 diamond appear one or two bars before the actual signal, giving you advance notice that conditions are aligning. This can help with preparation and timing.
DEBUG PANEL (Bottom Right)
When any debug option is enabled, a debug panel appears in the bottom right corner of the chart providing detailed scoring information.
Score Breakdown Table
When "Show Score Breakdown" is enabled, the panel displays:
Factor column showing Structure, Momentum, Volume, Volatility, and Pattern
Bull column showing raw score (0-100) for each bullish factor
Bear column showing raw score (0-100) for each bearish factor
Weight column showing current percentage weight for each factor
Below the factor rows :
FINAL row shows the calculated final Bull and Bear scores after all adjustments
Adj row shows total adjustments applied including gate bonus, squeeze adjustment, and exhaustion adjustment with positive or negative sign
This breakdown allows you to see exactly which factors are contributing to the score and which are lagging. If you notice Structure consistently low, you know to wait for better price positioning relative to swing levels.
Regime Debug
When "Show Regime Debug" is enabled, the panel displays:
Current regime state (TREND UP, TREND DN, VOLATILE, RANGE, WEAK)
Current ADX value driving the regime classification
This helps you understand why certain score adjustments are being applied and verify the regime detection is working as expected for current market conditions.
MTF Debug
When "Show MTF Debug" is enabled, the panel displays:
Current MTF alignment status (BULL, BEAR, NEUT)
The higher timeframe being analyzed
This confirms the higher timeframe data is being read correctly and shows you the trend bias from the larger timeframe perspective.
Using Debug Mode Effectively
For Learning: Enable all debug options when first using the indicator to understand how scores are calculated and what drives signal generation.
For Optimization: Use score breakdown to identify which factors are consistently weak in your chosen market and timeframe. This can inform whether to adjust factor thresholds or switch trading styles.
For Troubleshooting: If signals seem inconsistent, enable debug to see exactly what values the engine is working with. This helps identify if a specific factor is behaving unexpectedly.
For Live Trading: Disable debug features to keep chart clean and reduce visual distraction. The main dashboards provide sufficient information for trade execution.
Debug Settings Summary:
Show Factor Markers - Displays shapes on chart when 3, 4, or 5 factors align. Useful for seeing confluence build before signals trigger.
Show Score Breakdown - Displays detailed table with all raw factor scores, weights, and adjustments. Useful for understanding exactly how final score is calculated.
Show Regime Debug - Adds regime state and ADX value to debug panel. Useful for verifying regime detection accuracy.
Show MTF Debug - Adds higher timeframe status and timeframe to debug panel. Useful for confirming MTF data is loading correctly.
PERFORMANCE CONSIDERATIONS
On lower timeframes such as 1-minute and 5-minute charts, the indicator creates visual elements including labels, lines, and boxes that may impact performance on slower devices.
Performance Mode automatically reduces visual elements, optimizes calculation frequency, and limits historical ghost labels when enabled.
Configure Max Ghost Labels (default 50) to control how many historical signal labels are retained on the chart.
NON-REPAINTING DESIGN
Signal Integrity:
All entry and exit signals generate only on confirmed (closed) bars using barstate.isconfirmed checks. This ensures signals do not appear and disappear during bar formation.
Higher Timeframe Data:
MTF analysis uses request.security with lookahead disabled (barmerge.lookahead_off) to prevent future data from influencing current calculations.
Visual Elements:
Lines, boxes, and labels for active trades update in real-time for monitoring purposes but this visual updating does not affect signal generation logic. Entry decisions are made solely on confirmed bar data.

BT Aggressionv0.3.1 Beta Release
The BT Aggression Indicator is a high-resolution market sentiment and aggression tool for futures trading. It combines volume delta, volatility normalization, and dynamic smoothing to give traders real-time insight into market pressure.
Detailed description in future release.
Bollinger Bands with ATR SL Hariss 369Bollinger Bands are a popular technical analysis tool developed by John Bollinger. They consist of three lines plotted on a price chart:
Middle Band – a simple moving average (usually 20 periods).
Upper Band – the middle band plus two standard deviations.
Lower Band – the middle band minus two standard deviations.
Key Features:
Volatility Indicator: The bands expand when volatility increases and contract when volatility decreases.
Trend Analysis: Prices near the upper band indicate overbought conditions, while prices near the lower band indicate oversold conditions.
Trading Signals: Traders often look for price touches, breaks, or rebounds from the bands to identify potential entries or exits.
To strengthen the trend quality RVOL has been considered. The ideal value of RVOL is 1.5
Higher Time Frame Trend filter gives trend clarity in higher time frame. One can select RVOL and HTF (Higher Time Frame) filter.
Bollinger bands indicator is basically a trend following indicator. We should go with the trend rather book profit @1:1 or 1:2 basis. In that case we might miss the long trend. The middle band is generally considered as stop loss. However, ATR based stop loss has been designed in the script in order to capture the volatility in decent way.
Break out signal is initiated on break out with volume taking higher time frame into consideration.
One can use this indicator in any time frame and any class of asset. To filter higher time frame eg. entry / exit 5 min chart, 15m/1h can be taken as higher time frame, for 1h entry/ exit, 4h can be taken as higher time frame trend filter.

Pradeep Bonde (Stockbee) Momentum Pro
The Complete Momentum & Episodic Pivot Trading System
Based on the proven methodology of Pradeep Bonde (Stockbee) — the legendary momentum trader and "Mentor to $100 Million Traders."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
📈 OVERVIEW
This indicator implements Stockbee's complete momentum trading system, designed to identify high-probability swing trade setups. It combines Episodic Pivots, Momentum Bursts, Anticipation Setups, and IBD-style Relative Strength analysis into a single professional tool.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
🔥 KEY FEATURES
1. EPISODIC PIVOT DETECTION (EP)
The crown jewel of Stockbee's methodology:
- Detects 10%+ gaps on massive volume (2x+ average) — true catalyst-driven breakouts
- Identifies Delayed EP Breakouts — consolidation after initial gap, then secondary breakout
- Tracks days since EP for optimal entry timing
- PEAD (Post Earnings Announcement Drift) opportunities
2. MOMENTUM BURST SIGNALS
- 4%+ moves on volume 40%+ above average
- Quality filters: Requires narrow range before breakout, close near high of day
- Tiered signals: Momentum Burst → Strong Momentum → Exceptional Momentum
- "Quality" prefix (★) indicates setups with all filters passed
3. ANTICIPATION SETUP DETECTION
Pre-breakout coiling patterns:
- Detects 1-3 week tight consolidations after prior 15-25%+ advances
- Volume dry-up analysis during consolidation (< 60% of prior average)
- Anticipation score helps identify coiled springs before they break out
4. IBD-STYLE RELATIVE STRENGTH
- Custom RS Rating (1-99 scale) weighted by recent performance
- RS New High detection — signals institutional accumulation
- Weighted calculation: 40% Q1, 20% Q2, 20% Q3, 20% Q4 performance
5. BAG HOLDER PROTECTION ⚠️
Stockbee's cardinal rule: "Never buy after 3+ consecutive up days"
- Automatic detection of late entries
- Visual warnings on chart
- Quality score penalty for bag holder territory
6. EXIT SIGNAL SYSTEM
- First down day after 3+ up days = EXIT
- Close below 5-day MA trigger
- Clear visual EXIT labels on chart
Signal Thresholds:
- 🎯 PERFECT: Score ≥ 8.5 (highest probability trades)
- 💪 STRONG BUY: Score ≥ 7.5
