Johnny's Calculated Brain

1월 1일

## Overview

Johnny’s Calculated Brain is a real-time market context indicator designed to frame continuation and correction opportunities using higher timeframe structure.

It continuously evaluates price imbalance, volume participation, trend strength, and multi-timeframe alignment to help traders understand what type of market environment they are operating in. Continuation, pullback, or mean reversion, as price unfolds in real time.

This indicator provides context, not just execution.

---

## Brain Zones

Brain Zones highlight areas where price moves with strong directional intent and imbalance in real-time, for simple continuation trades in the same direction, or reversal entries for corrections, also often leaving behind zones that price may 'later' react to as well.

These zones:
- Are calculated on a locked higher timeframe (default: 4H)
- Are non-repainting and historical
- Are volume weighted, reflecting participation strength
- Dim automatically once fully mitigated

Brain Zones are not buy or sell signals, in the real world, those types of indicators don't exist and don't work either. They represent areas of interest where continuation, correction, or rejection may occur depending on market conditions.

## Real-Time Market Framing

Johnny’s Calculated Brain operates in real time and can be used to frame:

- Continuation trades
When trend strength and multi-timeframe alignment support further directional movement.

- Corrective / pullback trades
When price retraces into Brain Zones within an established trend.

- Mean-reversion conditions
When trend strength weakens and structure becomes balanced.

The indicator does not decide entries, it helps you decide which type of setup to look for and shows when that opportunity presents itself.

## Dashboard

The dashboard provides higher-timeframe context at a glance.

ADX:
- Indicates whether the market is Trending or Ranging
- Color coded for clarity

MTF (Multi-Timeframe Alignment):
- Bullish → Higher timeframes aligned upward
- Bearish → Higher timeframes aligned downward
- Mixed → No clear alignment

This helps determine whether continuation or correction setups are more appropriate.

---

## Highs & Lows (MTF)

Optional reference levels include:
- Daily High / Daily Low
- Weekly High / Weekly Low
- Monthly High / Monthly Low

These levels often act as liquidity targets, reaction zones, and structural boundaries that add confluence to Brain Zones.

---

## Alerts

Alerts are designed to help you monitor multiple markets efficiently.

How to use alerts:
1. Create a watchlist of assets you are interested in (FX, Crypto, Indices, etc.)
2. Set a TradingView alert using the script’s alert conditions against the watchlist and select 'Johnny's Calculated Brain' as the indicator.
3. Ensure the chart timeframe is set to **4H**
4. Select **Once Per Bar Close** when creating the alert

When an alert triggers, it means a **new Brain Zone has formed** on the higher timeframe and a **potential opportunity may be present**.

They notify you of new structural developments and potential trade opportunities.

---

## If You Cannot Use Alerts

If your TradingView membership does not allow automated alerts:

- Keep the indicator applied on your chart
- Monitor the chart on the 4H timeframe
- Watch for new Brain Zones forming visually (wait for H4 candle close)
- Treat newly formed zones as an area of potential trade opportunity

The indicator behaves the same with or without alerts.

---

## Recommended Settings

It is strongly recommended to leave all settings at their default values.

The defaults are tuned for higher timeframe reliability, reduced noise, and balanced sensitivity.
Changing sensitivity does not guarantee better results, it simply changes how strict the Brain is.

---

## How to Use

1. Start on a higher timeframe (4H recommended)
2. Wait for a new Brain Zone to form
- via alert notification, or
- visually on the chart
3. Check ADX (trend strength) and MTF alignment
4. Decide whether the market favors continuation or correction
5. Execute using your own strategy and risk management

This indicator is a decision support tool, not a blind buy/sell system.

Fixed a small error with Brain Detection settings. Bullish and Bearish zones should both now appear.

**Feature Added: 200 Period SMA Line**

Added a 200 period Simple Moving Average line. Toggle visibility On/Off in the indicator settings.

Note: This is an additional filter only. The primary indicator logic remains centered on the Brain Boxes and Trendlines.

Quick Reference for Interpretation:

- Price above line = Bullish (Uptrend bias)
- Price below line = Bearish (Downtrend bias)
- Line as a floor/ceiling = Potential support or resistance zone
- The "trend duration" depends on your chart's timeframe (e.g. Daily = long term (200 days), H4 = intermediate/short-term (33 days) and so on.
