Market State Engine V2# Market State Engine
**Deterministic Confidence-Scoring System for TradingView**
A professional-grade PineScript v5 indicator that scores market conditions from 0-100, helping traders identify high-quality trading opportunities through systematic structure analysis, VWAP positioning, order flow dynamics, and time-based context.
---
## 🎯 Overview
The **Market State Engine** is not a trading bot—it's a **noise-reduction and opportunity-ranking system** designed to filter market conditions and surface only the highest-quality setups.
Instead of blindly taking every signal, this indicator:
- ✅ **Scores** market conditions objectively (0-100 scale)
- ✅ **Filters** out low-probability setups automatically
- ✅ **Classifies** opportunities into A, A+, and A++ grades
- ✅ **Alerts** only on confirmed structure shifts with supporting context
- ✅ **Keeps the human in control** - provides intelligence, not automation
### Philosophy: Reduce Noise. Enforce Discipline. Surface Quality.

## 📊 Scoring System (0-100)
The Market State Engine evaluates **four independent components**, each contributing up to **25 points** for a maximum total score of **100**.
### 🎯 Component Breakdown
| Component | Max Points | Description |
|-----------|------------|-------------|
| **VWAP Context** | 25 | Measures price deviation from session VWAP |
| **Structure Shift** | 25 | Confirms pivot breakout (HARD GATE) |
| **CVD Alignment** | 25 | Detects order flow divergence/confirmation |
| **Time-of-Day** | 25 | Identifies high-probability trading sessions |
---
### 1️⃣ VWAP Context (Max 25 Points)
**Purpose:** Identifies extreme price deviations from fair value for mean-reversion opportunities.
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) is calculated session-anchored to New York market time, with standard deviation bands creating zones of opportunity.
#### Band Structure:
- **1st Band**: ±1σ from VWAP (fair value zone)
- **2nd Band**: ±2σ from VWAP (moderate deviation)
- **3rd Band**: ±3σ from VWAP (extreme deviation)
#### Scoring Logic (Exclusive):
```
Price in 3rd VWAP Band (>2σ and ≤3σ) → +25 points
Price in 2nd VWAP Band (>1σ and ≤2σ) → +15 points
Otherwise (inside 1σ or beyond 3σ) → 0 points
```
**Key Insight:** The further price stretches from VWAP, the higher the probability of mean reversion.
---
### 2️⃣ Structure Shift (Max 25 Points) — **HARD GATE**
**Purpose:** Confirms momentum shift through confirmed pivot breakouts.
⚠️ **CRITICAL:** Structure shift is **mandatory**. If no valid structure shift occurs, the **total score becomes 0** regardless of other factors.
#### Detection Method:
Uses TradingView's `ta.pivothigh()` and `ta.pivotlow()` functions with **locked parameters**:
- **Left bars**: 2
- **Right bars**: 2
- **Source**: Configurable (Wick or Body)
- **Break confirmation**: Candle close only
#### Bullish Structure Shift:
- ✅ Prior swing high exists (confirmed pivot)
- ✅ Current candle **closes above** swing high + tick buffer
- ✅ Must occur in VWAP 2nd or 3rd band
- ✅ **VWAP Filter**: Price must be **at or below VWAP** (lower bands)
#### Bearish Structure Shift:
- ✅ Prior swing low exists (confirmed pivot)
- ✅ Current candle **closes below** swing low - tick buffer
- ✅ Must occur in VWAP 2nd or 3rd band
- ✅ **VWAP Filter**: Price must be **at or above VWAP** (upper bands)
#### Scoring:
```
Valid structure shift → +25 points
No structure shift → Total score = 0
```
**Tick Buffer:** Default 5 ticks (configurable) - prevents false breaks from minor price noise.
---
### 3️⃣ CVD Alignment (Max 25 Points)
**Purpose:** Detects institutional order flow through volume delta analysis.
CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta) is a proxy for order flow:
```
Close > Open → +Volume (buying pressure)
Close < Open → -Volume (selling pressure)
```
#### Scoring Logic:
| Condition | Points | Description |
|-----------|--------|-------------|
| **Divergence** | +25 | Price makes higher high + CVD makes lower high (bearish)Price makes lower low + CVD makes higher low (bullish) |
| **Confirmation** | +20 | Price and CVD both make higher highs or lower lows |
| **Neutral** | 0 | No clear divergence or confirmation |
**Lookback Window:** Last 20 bars (configurable) - prevents stale divergences.
**Key Insight:** Divergences suggest weakening momentum, while confirmations validate the trend.
---
### 4️⃣ Time-of-Day Context (Max 25 Points)
**Purpose:** Prioritizes high-volume, high-volatility New York sessions.
#### Scored Sessions (America/New_York timezone):
| Session | Time Range (NY) | Points | Description |
|---------|-----------------|--------|-------------|
| **Pre-Market** | 03:00 - 04:00 | +25 | Early liquidity injection |
| **Market Open** | 09:30 - 11:30 | +25 | Highest volume period |
| **Off-Hours** | All other times | 0 | Lower probability setups |
**Key Insight:** Structure shifts during active sessions have higher follow-through probability.
---
## 🏆 Setup Classification
Setups are graded based on total score thresholds (configurable):
| Grade | Score Range | Typical Components | Quality Level |
|-------|-------------|-------------------|---------------|
| **A++ Setup** | ≥90 | All 4 factors aligned(VWAP 3rd band + Structure + CVD + Session) | Premium - Rare |
| **A+ Setup** | ≥75 | Structure + VWAP + CVD or Session(3 of 4 factors) | High - Select |
| **A Setup** | ≥60 | Structure + VWAP + Session(Minimum viable setup) | Good - Regular |
| **No Grade** | <60 | Insufficient confluence | Filtered out |
**Default Thresholds:**
- A Setup: 60 points
- A+ Setup: 75 points
- A++ Setup: 90 points

```
### Step 3: Interpret Signals
#### Valid Long Setup:
✅ Green triangle below candle
✅ Price in **lower VWAP bands** (below VWAP)
✅ Structure shift breaks swing high
✅ Score ≥60
#### Valid Short Setup:
✅ Red triangle above candle

✅ Structure shift breaks swing low
✅ Score ≥60
### Step 4: Set Up Alerts (See Alert Conditions section)
---
## 🚦 Signal Filters (VWAP Zone Logic)
The indicator uses **directional VWAP filtering** to prevent counter-trend signals:
### Long Signals (Green)
**Only allowed when price is AT or BELOW VWAP**
- ✅ Lower 2nd band (-2σ to -1σ)
- ✅ Lower 3rd band (-3σ to -2σ)
- ✅ At VWAP exactly
- ❌ **BLOCKED** in upper bands (above VWAP)
**Logic:** Longs when price is stretched below fair value (mean reversion)
### Short Signals (Red)
**Only allowed when price is AT or ABOVE VWAP**
- ✅ Upper 2nd band (+1σ to +2σ)
- ✅ Upper 3rd band (+2σ to +3σ)
- ✅ At VWAP exactly
- ❌ **BLOCKED** in lower bands (below VWAP)
**Logic:** Shorts when price is stretched above fair value (mean reversion)

---
## 🔧 Technical Details
### Timeframe Lock
- **Required**: 1-minute chart only
- **Reason**: Scoring model calibrated for 1m micro-structure
- **Future**: Multi-timeframe support planned for v2
### Timezone Configuration
- **Hard-coded**: `America/New_York`
- **Session Detection**: Uses TradingView's native session functions
- **Consistency**: All time-based logic uses NY timezone
### Swing Detection Parameters
**Locked to specification:**
- `ta.pivothigh(source, left=2, right=2)`
- `ta.pivotlow(source, left=2, right=2)`
**Implications:**
- Pivots confirmed 2 bars after formation
- No repainting - historical pivots don't move
- 4-bar minimum swing structure (2 left + pivot + 2 right)
### VWAP Calculation
- **Type**: Session-anchored (resets daily)
- **Source**: Typical price `(high + low + close) / 3`
- **Weighting**: Volume-weighted
- **Standard Deviation**: True population standard deviation
### CVD Proxy Formula
```pine
barDelta = close > open ? volume : close < open ? -volume : 0
CVD = cumulative sum of barDelta (session-reset)
```
### Performance Limits
- **Max Labels**: 500 (TradingView limit)
- **Max Bars Back**: 500
- **Memory**: Lightweight - uses only essential variables

## 💡 Best Practices
### 1. **Use as a Filter, Not a Strategy**
❌ Don't: Blindly take every signal
✅ Do: Use score as confluence for your existing analysis
### 2. **Higher Grades = Better Probability**
- **A Setups (60-74)**: Regular opportunities, still require discretion
- **A+ Setups (75-89)**: High-quality, multiple factors aligned
- **A++ Setups (90-100)**: Rare premium opportunities, strongest edge
### 3. **Respect the VWAP Zone Filter**
The indicator **automatically blocks**:
- Longs in upper VWAP bands (counter-trend)
- Shorts in lower VWAP bands (counter-trend)
Trust this logic - it enforces mean reversion discipline.
### 4. **Monitor the Score Panel**
Watch which components are scoring to understand **why** a setup formed:
- Missing CVD score? → No order flow confirmation
- Missing Time score? → Outside high-volume sessions
- Low VWAP score? → Weak deviation from fair value
### 5. **Combine with Risk Management**
The indicator provides **opportunity scoring**, not position sizing:
- Use stop losses based on swing structure
- Scale position size with setup grade (larger on A++, smaller on A)
- Set profit targets at VWAP or opposing band
### 6. **Session Awareness**
Prioritize signals during **active sessions**:
- **03:00-04:00 NY**: Pre-market momentum
- **09:30-11:30 NY**: Highest volume, tightest spreads
Off-hours signals (0 time score) are lower probability but still valid if other factors strong.
### 7. **Understand the Hard Gate**
If **no structure shift** occurs:
- Total score = 0
- No alerts fire
- Other components irrelevant
**Why?** Structure shift confirms momentum change - without it, there's no tradable opportunity.
### 8. **Avoid Over-Optimization**
Default settings are well-calibrated:
- Don't chase "perfect" parameters
- Test changes on historical data before live use
- Document any modifications
### 9. **Leverage Alert De-Duplication**
The indicator prevents spam automatically:
- One alert per unique swing break
- New swing levels = new alerts
- No need to manually filter notifications
### 10. **Supplement with Price Action**
Use the indicator alongside:
- Support/resistance levels
- Order flow footprint charts
- Volume profile
- Market internals (breadth, TICK, etc.)

## 📚 Example Scenarios
### Example 1: A++ Premium Setup (Score: 95)
```
Price: In lower 3rd VWAP band (-2.8σ) → VWAP: 25 pts
Structure: Close breaks swing high → Structure: 25 pts
CVD: Price LL + CVD HL (bullish div) → CVD: 25 pts
Time: 10:15 AM NY (market open) → Time: 25 pts
Direction: LONG (price below VWAP) → Valid
Grade: A++ (95/100)
```
**Interpretation:** All factors aligned - premium mean-reversion long opportunity.
---
### Example 2: A+ Strong Setup (Score: 80)
```
Price: In upper 2nd VWAP band (+1.5σ) → VWAP: 15 pts
Structure: Close breaks swing low → Structure: 25 pts
CVD: Price HH + CVD LH (bearish div) → CVD: 25 pts
Time: 2:00 PM NY (off-hours) → Time: 0 pts
Direction: SHORT (price above VWAP) → Valid
Grade: A+ (65/100)
```
**Interpretation:** Strong setup despite off-hours, bearish divergence adds confidence.
---
### Example 3: Filtered Setup (Score: 0)
```
Price: In upper 3rd VWAP band (+2.5σ) → VWAP: 25 pts (if allowed)
Structure: Close breaks swing high → Structure: BLOCKED
CVD: Price HH + CVD HH (confirmation) → CVD: 20 pts (if allowed)
Time: 10:00 AM NY → Time: 25 pts (if allowed)
Direction: LONG (price ABOVE VWAP) → ❌ INVALID ZONE
Grade: None (0/100) - NO ALERT
```
**Interpretation:** VWAP filter blocked long signal in upper band - prevents counter-trend trade.
---
## 🛠️ Troubleshooting
### No Signals Appearing
- ✅ Verify you're on **1-minute chart**
- ✅ Check **Tick Size** matches your symbol
- ✅ Ensure **VWAP Bands** are visible
- ✅ Wait for confirmed pivots (requires at least 5 bars of history)
### Alerts Not Firing
- ✅ Confirm alert is set to **"Once Per Bar Close"**
- ✅ Check score threshold (must be ≥60 by default)
- ✅ Verify VWAP zone filter isn't blocking signals
- ✅ Check that structure shift is actually occurring
### Score Always Zero
- ✅ No structure shift detected (hard gate active)
- ✅ Price may not be in valid VWAP zone (2nd or 3rd band)
- ✅ Insufficient swing history (wait for pivots to form)
### Too Many/Too Few Signals
**Too many signals:**
- Increase **A Setup Threshold** (e.g., 70 instead of 60)
- Increase **Tick Buffer Count** (reduces false breaks)
**Too few signals:**
- Decrease **A Setup Threshold** (e.g., 50 instead of 60)
- Decrease **Tick Buffer Count** (more sensitive to breaks)

SWING ATR BasedWhat does this indicator do?
1. It identifies Market Swings The script monitors price action to detect when a trend changes direction.
It uses ATR (Average True Range) to measure volatility, ensuring it doesn't get tricked by small, insignificant price movements.
To validate a change in direction (from bullish to bearish, or vice versa), it waits for the price to cover a specific distance (defined by the kRange parameter) and requires at least two significant candles.
2. It plots Support and Resistance zones As soon as a new high or low point is confirmed:
In Green (Bull): It draws a support line at the level of the last low.
In Red (Bear): It draws a resistance line at the level of the last high.
Auto-Cleaning: If the price breaks through a support line, the line turns gray and stops. The script only keeps active (unbroken) levels on the screen.
3. It calculates an "SGE Score" (Market State) This is the "brain" of the script. It assigns a rating to the current trend:
+2 (Bullish): The price has broken a resistance.
-2 (Bearish): The price has broken a support.
0 (Neutral): The market is indecisive (for example, after a break that contradicts the previous one).
Key Feature: This score has a "one-candle delay." It waits for the next candle to close before confirming a score change, which helps avoid reacting too quickly to false alerts.
4. It simplifies visual reading To keep your chart clean and readable:
It only highlights the 3 levels closest to the current price (those most likely to be hit soon).
It colors the chart candles directly: Green if the score is +2, Red if the score is -2, and Gray if it is neutral.
5. Dashboard In the top-right corner of your screen, it displays a permanent summary:
The current score (-2, 0, or 2).
The number of active supports and resistances.
Summary: This is a "smart" trend detector. Instead of just looking at whether the price is going up or down, it waits for the price to break important structural levels (confirmed by volatility) to tell you: "Caution, the structure has just shifted from bullish to bearish."
Recommended Settings:
kRange: 1.3 / 1.4
ATR Mult: 0.3 to 0.5

N Option Selling 1
**NIFTY Weekly Option Seller – Regime & Risk Framework (HTF + RSI)**
This indicator is a **decision-support tool for NIFTY option sellers**, designed to identify whether current market conditions favor:
* **Iron Condor (IC)** – range / mean-reversion
* **Put Credit Spread (PCS)** – bullish bias
* **Call Credit Spread (CCS)** – bearish bias
The script focuses on **structure selection and risk management**, not trade execution.
---
## Core logic
### 1) Multi-timeframe context
* Signals are calculated on the **active chart timeframe** (commonly 4H).
* **Daily (HTF) EMA trend and Daily ADX** are used as **gating conditions**, ensuring strong directional scores are not allowed against the higher-timeframe context.
This prevents aggressive trend selling when the daily structure does not support it.
---
### 2) Three independent regime scores (0–5)
The script computes three capped and smoothed scores:
* **IC score (Range quality)**
Based on low ADX, price inside CPR, proximity to VWAP, Camarilla H3–L3, daily range confirmation, and mid-band RSI.
* **PCS score (Bullish structure)**
Based on EMA up-stack, trend strength (ADX), price relative to CPR/VWAP, with RSI and Daily trend acting as **brakes**, not entry signals.
* **CCS score (Bearish structure)**
Based on EMA down-stack, trend strength (ADX), price relative to CPR/VWAP, with RSI and Daily trend acting as **brakes**, not entry signals.
RSI is used only to **cap aggressiveness at extremes**, not to predict reversals.
---
### 3) Cross-penalty & smoothing
* When multiple regimes score high simultaneously, **cross-penalties reduce conflicting scores** so only one regime dominates.
* Final scores are **smoothed across bars** to avoid frequent regime flips and unstable sizing decisions.
---
### 4) Regime selection
The script selects **one primary regime** (IC / PCS / CCS) based on the highest adjusted score, with tie-break logic that prefers trend regimes only when ADX confirms strength; otherwise it defaults to IC.
---
### 5) Non-repainting reference levels
The indicator plots key **previous-day, non-repainting levels**:
* CPR (Low / High with Narrow–Wide classification)
* Camarilla H3, L3, H4, L4
* VWAP
These are contextual reference levels for structure and risk placement.
---
### 6) DEFEND / HARVEST prompts
Using ATR-based proximity logic, the script provides:
* **DEFEND** alerts when price approaches modeled risk zones
* **HARVEST** alerts when sufficient cushion exists
* **REGIME** alerts on confirmed regime changes
These are **risk-management prompts**, not buy/sell signals.
---
### 7) Visual dashboard
A compact panel displays:
* Active regime and score
* ADX / RSI
* CPR width classification
* EMA structure and tightness
* VWAP proximity
* IC / PCS / CCS scores
* Key level snapshot
---
## Intended use
* Designed for **weekly option selling**
* Best used on **4H charts with Daily context**
* Suitable for traders who manage positions **once per day**
* Encourages **structure-first thinking** (IC base with controlled directional bias)

## Disclaimer
This indicator does **not place trades** and does not calculate position size or P&L.
It is a **market regime and risk-awareness tool** and must be used with proper capital management and execution discipline.

This Pine Script code defines a trading strategy named **"Anhnga4.0 - Filter Toggle"**. It is a trend-following strategy that uses momentum oscillators and moving averages to identify entries, while featuring a specific "Overextension Filter" to avoid buying at the top or selling at the bottom.
Here is a breakdown of how the script works:
---
## 1. Core Trading Logic (The Entry)
The strategy looks for a "perfect storm" of three factors before entering a trade:
* **Momentum (WaveTrend):** It uses the WaveTrend oscillator (`wt1` and `wt2`).
* **Long:** A bullish crossover happens while the oscillator is below the zero line (oversold).
* **Short:** A bearish crossunder happens while the oscillator is above the zero line (overbought).
* **Trend Confirmation:** The price must be on the "correct" side of three different lines: the 20-period Moving Average (BB Basis), the 50-period SMA, and the 200-period SMA.
* **The Window:** You don't have to enter exactly on the cross. The `Signal Window` allows the trade to trigger up to 4 bars after the momentum cross, provided the trend filters align.
## 2. The "Overextension" Filter
This is a unique feature of this script. It calculates the distance between the current price and the **50-period Moving Average**.
* If the price is too far away from the MA (defined by the **ATR Limit**), the script assumes the move is "exhausted."
* If `Enable Overextension Filter?` is on, the strategy will skip these trades to avoid "chasing the pump."
* **Visual Cue:** The chart background turns **purple** when the price is considered overextended.

## 3. Risk Management & Exit Strategy
The script manages trades dynamically using Bollinger Bands and Risk:Reward ratios:
| Feature | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Stop Loss (SL)** | Set at the **Lower Bollinger Band** for Longs and **Upper Band** for Shorts. |
| **Take Profit (TP)** | Calculated based on your **RR Ratio** (default is 2.0). If your risk is $10, it sets the target at $20 profit. |
| **Breakeven** | A "protection" feature. Once the price moves in your favor by a certain amount (the `Breakeven Trigger`), the script moves the Stop Loss to your entry price to ensure a "risk-free" trade. |
---
## 4. Visual Elements on the Chart
* **Green Lines:** Your target price (TP).
* **Red Lines:** Your initial Stop Loss.
* **Yellow Lines:** Indicates the Stop Loss has been moved to **Breakeven**.
* **Purple Background:** High alert—price is overextended; trades are likely being filtered out.
---
## Summary of Settings
* **BB Multiplier:** Controls how wide your initial stop loss is.
* **ATR Limit:** Controls how sensitive the "Overextension" filter is (higher = more trades allowed; lower = stricter filtering).
* **Breakeven Trigger:** Set to 1.0 by default, meaning once you are "1R" (profit equals initial risk) in profit, the stop moves to entry.

DkS Market Structure Breakout Strategy Crypto & ForexDkS Market Structure Breakout Strategy Crypto & Forex
🔍 Overview
DkSPro – Universal Market Analysis is a structure-based trading strategy designed for Crypto and Forex markets, focused on trend alignment, breakout confirmation, and volume validation.
This strategy is built to filter low-quality trades, avoid ranging conditions, and reduce false breakouts by requiring multiple layers of confirmation before any trade is executed.
It is intended for scalping and intraday trading, prioritizing consistency and risk control over trade frequency.
🧠 Strategy Logic (How It Works)
DkSPro follows a sequential decision process, not a single-indicator signal:
Trend Bias (EMA Structure)
A fast and slow EMA define the directional bias.
Long trades are only allowed during bullish EMA alignment.
Short trades are only allowed during bearish EMA alignment.
This prevents counter-trend and ranging-market entries.
Market Structure & Breakout Validation
The strategy identifies recent swing highs and lows.
Trades are triggered only after a confirmed breakout of structure, not during consolidation.
This avoids early entries and false momentum moves.
Volume Confirmation
Volume must exceed its moving average by a defined multiplier.
This ensures participation and filters out low-liquidity breakouts.
Volume thresholds adapt depending on the selected trading mode.
Momentum Confirmation (RSI)
RSI is used strictly as a momentum filter, not as a standalone signal.
It confirms that price movement aligns with the breakout direction.
Risk Management (Mandatory)
Every position includes a predefined Stop Loss and Take Profit.
Position sizing is based on a fixed percentage of equity, keeping risk per trade within sustainable limits.
All conditions must align simultaneously; otherwise, no trade is executed.
⚙️ Trading Modes
SAFE Mode
Stronger volume and RSI thresholds
Fewer trades, higher selectivity
Designed for risk control and consistency
AGGRESSIVE Mode
Slightly relaxed filters
Higher trade frequency during strong momentum
Intended for experienced users only
📊 Markets & Assets
This strategy has been actively used and tested on:
🟢 Crypto (Binance / Binance.US)
SOL-USDT
XRP-USDT
Other high-liquidity pairs (BTC, ETH)
Crypto mode benefits from stronger volume confirmation to adapt to higher volatility.
🔵 Forex
Major pairs such as EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY
Optimized for liquid markets with lower relative volume
The same structural logic applies to both markets, with volume behavior naturally adapting to each asset class.
⏱ Recommended Timeframes
Crypto: 5m – 15m
Forex: 15m – 1H
Lower timeframes (1m) are not recommended due to noise and unreliable volume behavior.
🧪 Backtesting & Settings Transparency
Default strategy properties are intentionally conservative to reflect realistic conditions:
Initial capital: $20,000
Position size: 2% of equity
Commission: 0.08%
Slippage: 1 tick
Fixed Stop Loss and Take Profit on every trade
Backtests should be performed on sufficient historical data (ideally 6–12 months) to ensure a statistically meaningful sample size (100+ trades).
📈 Originality & Usefulness
DkSPro is not a simple indicator mashup.
Each component serves a specific role in a layered confirmation system:
EMAs define direction
Structure defines timing
Volume validates participation
RSI confirms momentum
Risk management controls exposure
Removing any layer significantly reduces signal quality. The strategy is designed as a complete decision framework, not a signal generator.
⚠️ Important Notes
This script is an analysis and execution tool, not financial advice.
Market conditions change, and no strategy performs well in all environments.
Users are encouraged to backtest, forward test, and adjust position sizing according to their own risk tolerance.

🇪🇸 Descripción en Español (Resumen)
DkSPro es una estrategia basada en estructura de mercado, diseñada para Crypto y Forex, que combina tendencia, ruptura de estructura, volumen y control de riesgo.
Solo opera cuando todas las condiciones se alinean, evitando rangos, falsas rupturas y sobreoperar.
Ha sido utilizada en Binance con pares como SOL-USDT y XRP-USDT, así como en Forex, siempre con gestión de riesgo fija y condiciones realistas.
Week High/LowThis indicator plots the Previous Week High and Low as two horizontal dashed lines.
It is designed to appear only on the Daily (D) and Weekly (W) timeframes, ensuring a clean higher-timeframe context without lower-timeframe noise.
The levels are calculated from the completed weekly candle and automatically update at the start of each new week.
These levels serve as weekly liquidity references, commonly used to assess premium/discount zones, potential stop-run areas, and higher-timeframe market reactions.
DayTradeMind Combined High Win Rate StrategyThe DayTradeMind Combined High Win Rate Strategy is a trend-following system that relies on confluence—the idea that a trade signal is stronger when multiple independent indicators agree. Instead of entering on a single indicator's whim, it uses a "voting" system to qualify entries and a strict risk-to-reward ratio to manage exits.Here is a breakdown of the three main layers of this strategy:1. The Voting Engine (Confluence Model)The strategy tracks four indicators and assigns a "point" for a bullish or bearish bias. It requires a minimum number of points (set by minConfirmations, usually 2/4) before it even considers a trade.IndicatorBullish Condition (1 point)Bearish Condition (1 point)PurposeMACDMACD Line > Signal LineMACD Line < Signal LineMeasures short-term momentum.DonchianPrice > 20-period MedianPrice < 20-period MedianIdentifies price relative to recent range.SuperTrendPrice above trend linePrice below trend lineFilters for the "Macro" trend direction.%B (Bollinger)Price in lower-mid range (0.2–0.5)Price in upper-mid range (0.5–0.8)Prevents buying when overextended.2. The Entry TriggerHaving enough "votes" (confirmations) isn't enough to enter. The strategy waits for a trigger event to ensure you aren't entering a stale trend. An entry only occurs if the minimum confirmations are met AND one of the following happens on the current bar:MACD Cross: The MACD line crosses over the signal line.Structural Break: The price crosses over the Donchian Middle (Median) line.This "Confirmation + Trigger" approach is designed to catch the start of a momentum push rather than buying a flat market.3. Mathematical Risk ManagementThe performance you see in your backtest (like the 46.86% return) is largely driven by the 2:1 Reward-to-Risk (RR) Ratio.Stop Loss (SL): Fixed at 2% below entry.Take Profit (TP): Fixed at 4% above entry.By aiming for a target twice as large as the risk, the strategy can remain profitable even with a win rate as low as 35%–40%. Mathematically, your winning trades compensate for more than two losing trades.Visualizing the SystemTriangles: Small green (up) and red (down) triangles appear on your chart only when the Votes + Trigger align perfectly.Background Shading: Faint green or red bands show you exactly when the "Confluence" is active. If the background is gray, the indicators are in conflict.Dashboard: The table in the top-right summarizes the current "score" for each indicator, letting you know how close you are to a potential trade signal.
WatchmenThe Watchmen Indicator tracks potential market maker breakeven zones using dynamic open/close ranges (no wicks in Fib calc). It expands the range until the 50% level is breached by the full candle range, then resets. Green = long/down setups (buy retrace), Red = short/up setups (sell retrace). Uses only open/close for levels, high/low for breaches. Ideal for mean-reversion in trends.
