Failed Breakout DetectionThis indicator is a reverse-engineered copy of the FBD Detection indicator published by xfuturesgod. The original indicator aimed at detecting "Failed Breakdowns". This version tracks the opposite signals, "Failed Breakouts". It was coded with the ES Futures 15 minute chart in mind but may be useful on other instruments and time frames.
The original description, with terminology reversed to explain this version:
'Failed Breakouts' are a popular set up for short entries.
In short, the set up requires:
1) A significant high is made ('initial high')
2) Initial high is undercut with a new high
3) Price action then 'reclaims' the initial high by moving +8-10 points from the initial high
This script aims at detecting such set ups. It was coded with the ES Futures 15 minute chart in mind but may be useful on other instruments and time frames.
Business Logic:
1) Uses pivot highs to detect 'significant' initial highs
2) Uses amplitude threshold to detect a new high above the initial high; used /u/ben_zen script for this
3) Looks for a valid reclaim - a red candle that occurs within 10 bars of the new high
4) Price must reclaim at least 8 points for the set up to be valid
5) If a signal is detected, the initial high value (pivot high) is stored in array that prevents duplicate signals from being generated.
6) FBO Signal is plotted on the chart with "X"
7) Pivot high detection is plotted on the chart with "P" and a label
8) New highs are plotted on the chart with a red triangle
Notes:
User input
- My preference is to use the defaults as is, but as always feel free to experiment
- Can modify pivot length but in my experience 10/10 work best for pivot highs
- New high detection - 55 bars and 0.05 amplitude work well based on visual checks of signals
- Can modify the number of points needed to reclaim a high, and the # of bars limit over which this must occur.
Alerts:
- Alerts are available for detection of new highs and detection of failed breakouts
- Alerts are also available for these signals but only during 7:30PM-4PM EST - 'prime time' US trading hours
Limitations:
- Current version of the script only compares new highs to the most recent pivot high, does not look at anything prior to that
- Best used as a discretionary signal
Bull Bear Pivot by RawstocksThe "Bull Bear Pivot" indicator is a custom Pine Script (v5) tool designed for TradingView to assist traders in identifying key price levels and pivot points on intraday charts (up to 1-hour timeframes). It combines time-based open price markers, pivot high/low detection, and candlestick visualization to provide a comprehensive view of potential support, resistance, and trend reversal levels. Below is a detailed description of the indicator’s functionality, features, and intended use.
Indicator Overview:
The "Bull Bear Pivot" indicator is tailored for intraday trading, focusing on specific times of the day to mark significant price levels (open prices) and detect pivot points. It plots horizontal lines at the open prices of user-defined sessions, identifies pivot highs and lows on the current chart timeframe, and overlays custom candlesticks to highlight price action. The indicator is designed to work on timeframes of 1 hour or less (e.g., 1-minute, 3-minute, 5-minute, 15-minute, 30-minute, 60-minute) and includes a warning mechanism for invalid timeframes.
Key Features:
Time-Based Open Price Markers:
The indicator allows users to define up to five time-based sessions (e.g., 4:00 AM, 8:30 AM, 9:30 AM, 10:00 AM, and a custom time) to capture the open price at the start of each session.
For each session, it plots a horizontal line at the 1-minute open price, extending from the session start to the market close at 4:00 PM EST.
Each line is accompanied by a label positioned 5 bars to the right of the market close (4:00 PM EST), with the text right-aligned and vertically centered on the line.
Users can enable/disable each marker, customize the session time, label text, line color, and text color via the indicator’s settings.
Pivot Highs and Lows:
The indicator calculates pivot highs and lows on the current chart timeframe using the ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions.
Pivot highs are marked with green triangles above the bars, and pivot lows are marked with red triangles below the bars.
The pivot period (lookback/lookforward) is user-configurable, allowing flexibility in detecting short-term or longer-term reversals.
Custom Candlesticks:
The indicator overlays custom candlesticks on the chart, colored green for bullish candles (close > open) and red for bearish candles (close < open).
This feature helps visualize price action alongside the open price markers and pivot points.
Timeframe Restriction:
The indicator is designed to work on timeframes of 1 hour or less. If the chart timeframe exceeds 1 hour (e.g., 4-hour, daily), a warning label ("Timeframe > 1H Indicator Disabled") is displayed, and no elements are plotted.
Customizable Appearance:
Users can customize the appearance of the open price marker lines, including the line style (solid, dashed, dotted) and line width.
Labels for the open price markers have no background (transparent) and use customizable text colors.
Pin Bar Detector (v1.0.0) Description:
This script detects Pin Bar candlestick patterns based on their shadows and body size.
It analyzes the candle's structure and trend direction using moving averages
to determine valid Pin Bars in an uptrend or downtrend.
The purpose of this script is to help traders identify potential reversal points
by spotting Pin Bar formations in line with the prevailing market trend.
Previous Candle Range Split into ThirdsThis script plots two horizontal lines over the previous candle to divide its total range (high to low) into three equal parts. The first line marks 33% of the range from the low, and the second marks 66%. This helps users visually identify whether the previous candle closed in the lower, middle, or upper third of its range, providing context on potential buyer or seller dominance during that session.
Users can customize the color, width, and style (solid, dotted, dashed) of each line, as well as toggle their visibility from the script's input settings.
This indicator is designed as a discretionary analysis tool and does not generate buy or sell signals.
10K's RTH open ±0.35% for CMEInstant Visualization of ±0.35% from RTH Open — Spot Intraday Reversals at a Glance!
This is a visual tool designed for the U.S. regular trading hours (RTH), which instantly highlights the ±0.35% range from the RTH opening price of futures at the start of the session.
The range is displayed as a light purple box, accompanied by a dashed line marking the exact opening price, helping traders quickly assess how price reacts around this key level.
With adjustable transparency settings, this tool is ideal for intraday analysis of price positioning and directional strength — a valuable aid for short-term trading strategies.
Falcon SignalsThis script is a TradingView Pine Script for a trading strategy called "Falcon Signals." It combines multiple technical indicators and strategies to generate buy and sell signals. Here’s a breakdown of what the script does:
1. Supertrend Indicator:
The script calculates the Supertrend indicator using the Average True Range (ATR) and a specified multiplier (factor). The Supertrend is used to define the trend direction, with a green line for an uptrend and a red line for a downtrend.
2. EMA (Exponential Moving Average):
Two EMAs are used: a fast EMA (9-period) and a slow EMA (21-period). The script checks for crossovers of the fast EMA above or below the slow EMA as a basis for buying and selling signals.
3. RSI (Relative Strength Index):
The RSI (14-period) is used to measure the momentum of the price. A buy signal is generated when the RSI is less than 70, while a sell signal is generated when it’s greater than 30.
4. Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL):
The script allows users to set custom percentages for take profit and stop loss. The take profit is set at a certain percentage above the entry price for buy signals, and the stop loss is set at a percentage below the entry price, and vice versa for sell signals.
5. Trailing Stop:
A trailing stop can be enabled, which dynamically adjusts the stop loss level as the price moves in the favorable direction. If the price moves against the position by a certain trailing percentage, the position will be closed.
6. Engulfing Patterns:
The script checks for bullish and bearish engulfing candlestick patterns, indicating potential reversals. A bullish engulfing pattern is marked with a teal label ("🔄 Reversal Up"), and a bearish engulfing pattern is marked with a fuchsia label ("🔄 Reversal Down").
7. Plotting:
The script plots various indicators and signals:
Entry line: Shows where the buy or sell signal is triggered.
Take profit and stop loss levels are plotted as lines.
EMA and Supertrend lines are plotted on the chart.
Trailing stop line, if enabled, is also plotted.
8. Buy and Sell Labels:
The script places labels on the chart when buy or sell signals are triggered, indicating the price at which the order should be placed.
9. Exit Line:
The script plots an exit line when the trailing stop is hit, signaling when a position should be closed.
10. Alerts:
Alerts are set for both buy and sell signals, notifying the trader when to act based on the strategy's conditions.
This strategy combines trend-following (Supertrend), momentum (RSI), and price action patterns (EMA crossovers and engulfing candlestick patterns) to generate trade signals. It also offers the flexibility of take profit, stop loss, and trailing stop features.

ATR Amplitude RatioATR Amplitude Ratio
The ATR Amplitude Ratio indicator measures price volatility by comparing the current candle's amplitude (high-low range) to the Average True Range (ATR). This helps traders identify when price movement exceeds typical volatility thresholds, potentially signaling unusual market activity.
Key Features:
Displays the ratio between current candle height and ATR as color-coded histogram bars
Customizable ATR calculation with multiple smoothing methods (SMA, EMA, RMA, WMA)
Visual reference lines at 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, and 5x ATR levels
Dynamic color coding based on volatility intensity (5 customizable threshold colors)
Real-time display of current ratio and ATR values
How to Use:
Volatility Assessment: Quickly identify if price action is within normal volatility ranges or exhibiting unusual movement
Breakout Confirmation: Higher ratios can confirm genuine breakouts versus false moves
Entry/Exit Timing: Consider entries when volatility returns to normal ranges after spikes
Risk Management: Adjust position sizing based on current volatility ratios
Settings:
ATR Length: Determines the lookback period for ATR calculation (default: 14)
ATR Smoothing Type: Choose from SMA, EMA, RMA, or WMA methods
Color Thresholds: Customize colors for different volatility ranges
This indicator helps traders make more informed decisions by providing context about current price action relative to recent historical volatility.
Statistical OHLC Projections [neo|]█ OVERVIEW
Statistical OHLC Projections is an indicator designed to offer users a customizable deep-dive on measuring historical price levels for any timeframe. The indicator separates price into two distinct levels, "Manipulation" and "Distribution", where the idea is that for higher timeframe candles, e.g. an up-close candle, the distance from the open to the bottom of the wick would constitute the Manipulation, and the rest would be considered the Distribution. By measuring out these levels, we can gain insight on how far the market may move from higher timeframe opens to their manipulations and distributions, and apply this knowledge to our analysis.
IMPORTANT: Since levels are based on the lookback available on your chart, if the levels aren't being displayed this likely means you don't have enough lookback for your selected timeframe. To check this, enable the stat table to see how many values are available for your timeframe, and either reduce the lookback or increase your chart timeframe.
█ CONCEPTS
The core concept revolves around understanding market behavior through the lens of historical candle structure. The indicator dissects OHLC data to provide statistical boundaries of expected price movement.
- Manipulation Levels: These represent the areas typically seen as liquidity grabs or false moves where price extends in one direction before reversing.
- Distribution Levels: These highlight where the bulk of directional movement tends to occur, often following the manipulation move.
The tool aggregates this data across your selected timeframe to inform you of potential levels associated with it.
█ FEATURES
Multiple Display Types: Display statistical data through two sleek styles, areas or lines. Where areas represent the area between two customizable lookback values, and lines represent one average value.
Adjustable Timeframe Selection: Whether you want to see data based on the 1D chart, or the 1W chart, anything is possible. Simply change the timeframe on the dropdown menu and if there is sufficient lookback the indicator will adjust to your requested timeframe.
Customizable Historical Lookback: By default, the indicator will measure the average 60 values of your requested timeframe, however this may be adjusted to be higher or lower based on your preference. If you want to measure recent moves, 10-20 lookback may be better for you, or if you want more data for less volatile instruments, a value of 100 may be better.
Historical Display: Prevent historical levels from being removed by unchecking the "Remove Previous Drawings" option, this will allow you to examine how the levels previously interacted with price.
NY Midnight Anchoring: By checking the "Use NY Midnight" option, you may see the projection anchored to the New York midnight open time, which is often a significant level on indices.
Alerts: You may enable alerts for any of the indicator's provided levels to stay informed, even when off the charts.
█ How to use
To use the indicator, simply apply it to your chart and modify any of your desired inputs.
By default, the indicator will provide levels for the "1D" timeframe, with a desired lookback of 60, on most instruments and plans this can be gotten when you are on the 30 minute timeframe or above.
When price reaches or extends beyond a manipulation level, observe how it reacts and whether it rejects from that level, if it does this may be an indication that the candle for the timeframe you selected may be reversing.
█ SETTINGS AND OPTIONS
Customize the indicator’s behavior, timeframe sources, and visual appearance to fit your analysis style. Each setting has been designed with flexibility in mind, whether you're working on lower or higher timeframes.
Display Mode: Switch between different display styles for levels: - Default: Shows all statistical levels as individual lines.
- Areas: Plots filled zones between two customizable lookbacks to represent the range between them.
This is ideal for visually mapping high-probability zones of price activity.
Timeframe Settings:
- Show First/Second Timeframe: Choose to show one or both timeframe projections simultaneously.
- First Timeframe / Second Timeframe: Define the higher timeframe candle you want to base calculations on (e.g., 1D, 1W).
- Use NY Midnight: When enabled and using the daily timeframe, the levels will be anchored to the New York Midnight Open (00:00 EST), a key institutional timing reference, especially useful for indices and forex.
Calculation Settings:
- Main Lookback Period: The number of historical candles used in the statistical calculations. A lower number focuses on recent price action, while a higher number smooths results across broader history.
- First Lookback / Second Lookback: Used when “Areas” mode is selected to define the range of the shaded zone. For example, an area from 20 to 60 candles creates a band between short- and long-term price behavior averages.
Visual Settings:
- Line Style: Set your preferred visual style: Solid, Dashed, or Dotted.
- Remove Previous Drawings: When enabled, only the most recent projection is shown on the chart. Disable to retain previous levels and visually backtest their reactions over time.
Color Settings:
Customize each level independently to match your chart theme:
- Manipulation High/Low
- Distribution High/Low
- Open Level
- Label Text Color
Premium/Discount Zones:
- Enable Premium/Discount Zones: Overlay price zones above and below equilibrium to visualize potential overbought (premium) and oversold (discount) areas.
- Premium/Discount Colors: Fully customizable zone colors for clarity and emphasis.
Table Settings:
- Show Statistics Table: Adds an on-chart table summarizing key levels from your active timeframe(s).
- Table Cell Color: Set the background color of the table cells for visibility.
- Table Position: Choose from preset chart locations to position the table where it works best for your layout.
Alerts:
Stay on top of price interactions with key levels even when you're away from the charts.

Session Coloring Bar with ICT Macro [dani]The Session Coloring Bar is customizable Pine Script indicator designed to visually enhance your charts by applying unique colors to specific trading sessions or timeframes. This tool allows traders to easily identify and differentiate between macro sessions (e.g., 24-hour cycles) and custom-defined sessions (e.g., Session A, Session B), making it ideal for analyzing market activity during specific periods.
In the context of trading, the term "ICT Macro" , as discussed by Michael J. Huddleston (ICT), refers to specific timeframes or "windows" where market behavior often follows predictable patterns. Traders typically focus on the last 10 minutes of an hour and the first 10 minutes of the next hour (e.g., 0150-0210 , 0050-0110 , or 0950-1010 ) to identify key price movements, liquidity shifts, or market inefficiencies.
This script highlights these macro timeframes, enabling traders to visually analyze price action during these critical periods. Use this tool to support your strategy, but always combine it with your own analysis and risk management.
With this indicator, you can:
Highlight Macro Sessions : Automatically color bars based on predefined 24-hour macro sessions.
Customize Session Settings : Define up to three custom sessions (A & B) with individual start/end times, visibility toggles, and unique bar colors.
Timeframe Filtering : Hide session coloring above a specified timeframe to avoid clutter on higher timeframes.
Personal Notes : Add comments to each session for better organization and quick reference.
Dynamic Color Logic : Bars are colored based on their direction (up, down, or neutral) within the active session.
How to Use:
Enable/Disable Sessions :
Use the Show Coloring toggle to enable or disable session coloring for Macro, Session A, Session B, or Session C.
Set Session Times :
Define the start and end times for each session in the format HHMM-HHMM (e.g., 1600-0930 for an overnight session).
Choose Colors :
Assign unique colors for upward (Bar Up) and downward (Bar Down) bars within each session.
Adjust Timeframe Visibility :
Use the Hide above this TF input to specify the maximum timeframe where session coloring will be visible.
Add Notes :
Use the Comment field to add personal notes or labels for each session.
Example Use Cases:
Overnight Sessions :
Highlight overnight trading hours (e.g., 1600-0930) to analyze price action during low liquidity periods.
Asian/European/US Sessions : Define separate sessions for major trading regions to track regional market behavior.
Macro Analysis : Use the predefined 24-hour macro sessions to study hourly price movements across a full trading day.
Disclaimer:
The Session Coloring Bar is not a trading signal generator and does not predict market direction or provide buy/sell signals. Instead, it is a visualization tool designed to help you identify and analyze specific trading sessions or timeframes on your chart. By highlighting key sessions and their corresponding price movements, this indicator enables you to focus on periods of interest and make more informed trading decisions.
Thank you for choosing this indicator! I hope it becomes a valuable part of your trading toolkit. Remember, trading is a journey, and having the right tools can make all the difference. Whether you're a seasoned trader or just starting out, this indicator is designed to help you stay organized and focused on what matters most—price action. Happy trading, and may your charts be ever in your favor! 😊
Accumulation-Distribution CandlesThis structural visualization tool maps each candle through the lens of Effort vs. Result, blending Volume, Range, and closing bias into a normalized pressure score. Candle bodies are dynamically color-coded using a five-tier system—from heavy accumulation to heavy distribution—revealing where energy is building, dispersing, or neutral. This helps to visually isolate Markup, Markdown, Re-accumulation, and Distribution at a glance.
The indicator calculates a strength score by multiplying price result (close minus open) by effort (volume or price range), smoothing this raw value using a Fibonacci-based EMA. (34 for standard, 55 for crypto; the higher crypto value acknowledges that 24/7 trading offers more hours per week or month than trad markets.) The result is standardized against its rolling deviation and clamped to a range. This score determines the visual tier:
• 💙 Dark Blue = heavy Accumulation (strong upward result on strong effort)
• 🩵 Pale Blue = mild Accumulation
• 🌚 Gray = neutral (low conviction or balance)
• 💛 Pale Yellow = mild Distribution
• 🧡 Deep Yellow = heavy Distribution (strong downward result on strong effort)
The tool is optimized for the 1D chart, where Wyckoff phases are most clearly expressed. However, it adapts well to lower timeframes when used selectively. Traders may hide the body coloring and enable only zone highlighting to preserve other candle overlays such as SUPeR TReND 2.718, which offers directional clarity and trend duration. This combination is especially useful on intraday charts (15m–1H) where microstructure matters but visual clutter must be avoided.
When used alongside other Volume overlays (such as the OBVX Conviction Bias) or Volatility indicators (such as the Asymmetric Turbulence Ribbon (ATR)), this indicator adds confluence to directional setups by contextualizing pressure with Volatility. For example: compression zones marked by ATR may align with persistent pale blue candles—indicating quiet Accumulation before expansion.
Optional Overlays:
Normally ON -
• 📌 Pin Bars , filtered by volume, to isolate wick-dominant reversals from key zones
• 💪🏻 Strong-Body Candles — fuchsia candles w/ high body-to-range ratio reflect conviction
• 🧯 Wick Absorption Candles — red candles w/ long wicks and low closing strength indicate failed pushes or absorbed breakouts
• 🟦/🟧 Zone Highlighting for candles above a defined Accumulation/Distribution threshold
Normally OFF -
• 🔺 Fractals (5-bar) to map swing pivots by underlying pressure tier (normally OFF)
• 🟥/🟩 Engulfing patterns, filtered by directional conviction (normally OFF)
The Pin Bar strategy benefits most from the zone logic—when a bullish pin bar appears in an Accumulation zone (esp. pale or dark blue), and Volume exceeds its rolling average, it may mark a spring or failed breakdown. Conversely, bearish pins in Distribution zones can mark rejection or resistance.
This is not a signal engine—it’s a narrative filter designed to slot cleanly into a multi-layered workflow of visual structure and informed execution. Use it to identify bias and phase. Then deploy trade triggers from tools like SUPeR TReND 2.718, or the liquidity flows shown the The Silver Lining or the AltSeasonality - MTF indicators, for example. The candle colors tell you who’s in control—the other tools tell you when to act.
Trend Indicator with ArrowsTrend Indicator with arrows is a NoBrainer indicator to see the trend clearly.
UpTrend is defined as a candle closing above previous high. I
DownTrend is defined as a candle closing below previous low
A consolidation is defined as a candle closing inside previous candle high low.
UpTrend - Indicated with a green arrow below the candle with the current indicator.
DownTrend - ndicated with a red arrow above the candle with the current indicator.
So How to use this Indicator?
Identify zones of consolidation where the indicator doesn't show any arrows. Upon shift from consolidation to UpTrend or DownTrend take a entry. This is one way.
Second and most useful way is wait for Support or resistant hit.
If it's a support. Upon support hit wait for Consolidation, DownTrend and then UpTrend/(Consolidation again with uptrend) for long entry.
If its a resistance. Upon resistance hit wait for Consolidation, Uptrend and then DownTrend/(Consolidation again with DownTrend) for short Entry.
Impulse Candle with Volume & Std AnalysisImpulse Candle with Volume & Std Analysis
This indicator highlights “impulse” candles on your chart by combining price action and volume analysis to gauge the strength of market moves.
How It Works:
Impulse Candle Detection:
The indicator measures the candle’s body size and compares it to the Average True Range (ATR). When a candle’s body exceeds a user-defined multiple of the ATR (the “Impulse Factor”), it is flagged as an impulse candle.
Volume Analysis:
For each impulse candle, the indicator calculates the expected volume (Impulse Factor × average volume) and compares the actual volume against this expected value. It uses the standard deviation of volume over a specified period to classify the move’s volume as:
Extreme Low: More than 2 standard deviations below the expected volume
Low: Between 1 and 2 standard deviations below expected
Normal: Within 1 standard deviation of expected volume
High: Between 1 and 2 standard deviations above expected
Extreme High: More than 2 standard deviations above expected
Visual Cues:
The impulse candles are color-coded based on the volume classification.
A text-only label (with customizable text color) appears just above each impulse candle, indicating its volume category. The label has no background, ensuring a clean, unobtrusive look.
Customization:
Users can adjust parameters such as the Impulse Factor, ATR length, and volume averaging period to tailor the indicator to their trading style.
This tool is perfect for traders who want a quick visual representation of both significant price moves and the corresponding volume strength behind those moves.
EMA 21 and SMA 50 Low ConditionsDescription:
This indicator highlights trend zones on a daily chart using the 21-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA). It’s designed to identify bullish conditions with two distinct background colors:
• Green Background: Signals a strong bullish trend. Appears when the low of the candle stays above the 21 EMA for 3 or more consecutive days, with either the 3rd or 4th day closing higher than its open (an “up” day). The green zone persists until a candle closes below the 21 EMA.
• Yellow Background: Indicates a potential support zone. Triggers when the low of the candle remains above the 50 SMA after the green condition ends, suggesting the price is still holding above a longer-term average. The yellow zone lasts until a candle closes below the 50 SMA.
Features:
• Plots the 21 EMA (blue line) and 50 SMA (orange line) for visual reference.
• Uses background colors to mark trend zones, making it easy to spot bullish phases and support levels.
• Optimized for daily timeframes, ideal for swing traders or long-term trend followers.
How to Use:
1. Apply the indicator to a daily chart.
2. Watch for the green background to identify strong bullish momentum (lows holding above the 21 EMA with an up close confirmation).
3. Look for the yellow background as a sign of potential support after the short-term trend weakens (lows above the 50 SMA).
4. Exit zones are triggered by closes below the respective averages (21 EMA for green, 50 SMA for yellow).
Notes:
• Best used on symbols with sufficient historical data to ensure accurate EMA and SMA calculations.
• The indicator prioritizes the green condition over yellow—green will override if both could apply.
Author’s Intent:
Created to help traders visualize sustained bullish trends and key support levels using simple moving average rules. Perfect for confirming uptrends and monitoring pullbacks within a broader bullish context.
BTC Trading RobotOverview
This Pine Script strategy is designed for trading Bitcoin (BTC) by placing pending orders (BuyStop and SellStop) based on local price extremes. The script also implements a trailing stop mechanism to protect profits once a position becomes sufficiently profitable.
________________________________________
Inputs and Parameter Setup
1. Trading Profile:
o The strategy is set up specifically for BTC trading.
o The systemType input is set to 1, which means the strategy will calculate trade parameters using the BTC-specific inputs.
2. Common Trading Inputs:
o Risk Parameters: Although RiskPercent is defined, its actual use (e.g., for position sizing) isn’t implemented in this version.
o Trading Hours Filter:
SHInput and EHInput let you restrict trading to a specific hour range. If these are set (non-zero), orders will only be placed during the allowed hours.
3. BTC-Specific Inputs:
o Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) Percentages:
TPasPctBTC and SLasPctBTC are used to determine the TP and SL levels as a percentage of the current price.
o Trailing Stop Parameters:
TSLasPctofTPBTC and TSLTgrasPctofTPBTC determine when and by how much a trailing stop is applied, again as percentages of the TP.
4. Other Parameters:
o BarsN is used to define the window (number of bars) over which the local high and low are calculated.
o OrderDistPoints acts as a buffer to prevent the entry orders from being triggered too early.
________________________________________
Trade Parameter Calculation
• Price Reference:
o The strategy uses the current closing price as the reference for calculations.
• Calculation of TP and SL Levels:
o If the systemType is set to BTC (value 1), then:
Take Profit Points (Tppoints) are calculated by multiplying the current price by TPasPctBTC.
Stop Loss Points (Slpoints) are calculated similarly using SLasPctBTC.
A buffer (OrderDistPoints) is set to half of the take profit points.
Trailing Stop Levels:
TslPoints is calculated as a fraction of the TP (using TSLTgrasPctofTPBTC).
TslTriggerPoints is similarly determined, which sets the profit level at which the trailing stop will start to activate.
________________________________________
Time Filtering
• Session Control:
o The current hour is compared against SHInput (start hour) and EHInput (end hour).
o If the current time falls outside the allowed window, the script will not place any new orders.
________________________________________
Entry Orders
• Local Price Extremes:
o The strategy calculates a local high and local low using a window of BarsN * 2 + 1 bars.
• Placing Stop Orders:
o BuyStop Order:
A long entry is triggered if the current price is less than the local high minus the order distance buffer.
The BuyStop order is set to trigger at the level of the local high.
o SellStop Order:
A short entry is triggered if the current price is greater than the local low plus the order distance buffer.
The SellStop order is set to trigger at the level of the local low.
Note: Orders are only placed if there is no current open position and if the session conditions are met.
________________________________________
Trailing Stop Logic
Once a position is open, the strategy monitors profit levels to protect gains:
• For Long Positions:
o The script calculates the profit as the difference between the current price and the average entry price.
o If this profit exceeds the TslTriggerPoints threshold, a trailing stop is applied by placing an exit order.
o The stop price is set at a distance below the current price, while a limit (profit target) is also defined.
• For Short Positions:
o The profit is calculated as the difference between the average entry price and the current price.
o A similar trailing stop exit is applied if the profit exceeds the trigger threshold.
________________________________________
Summary
In essence, this strategy works by:
• Defining entry levels based on recent local highs and lows.
• Placing pending stop orders to enter the market when those levels are breached.
• Filtering orders by time, ensuring trades are only taken during specified hours.
• Implementing a trailing stop mechanism to secure profits once the trade moves favorably.
This approach is designed to automate BTC trading based on price action and dynamic risk management, although further enhancements (like dynamic position sizing based on RiskPercent) could be added for a more complete risk management system.

Abstract
The Adaptive Fibonacci Pullback System (AFPS) presents a sophisticated, institutional-grade algorithmic strategy engineered for high-probability trend pullback entries. Developed by FibonacciFlux, AFPS uniquely integrates a proprietary Multi-Fibonacci Supertrend engine (0.618, 1.618, 2.618 ratios) for harmonic volatility assessment, an Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) Channel providing dynamic market context, and a synergistic Multi-Timeframe (MTF) filter suite (RSI, MACD, Volume). This strategy transcends simple indicator combinations through its strict, multi-stage confluence validation logic. Historical simulations suggest that specific MTF filter configurations can yield exceptional performance metrics, potentially achieving Profit Factors exceeding 2.6 , indicative of institutional-level potential, while maintaining controlled risk under realistic trading parameters (managed equity risk, commission, slippage).

1. Introduction: Elevating Pullback Trading with Adaptive Confluence
Traditional pullback strategies often struggle with noise, false signals, and adapting to changing market dynamics. AFPS addresses these challenges by introducing a novel framework grounded in Fibonacci principles and adaptive logic. Instead of relying on static levels or single confirmations, AFPS seeks high-probability pullback entries within established trends by validating signals through a rigorous confluence of:
Harmonic Volatility Context: Understanding the trend's stability and potential turning points using the unique Multi-Fibonacci Supertrend.
Adaptive Market Structure: Assessing the prevailing trend regime via the AMA Channel.
Multi-Dimensional Confirmation: Filtering signals with lower-timeframe Momentum (RSI), Trend Alignment (MACD), and Market Conviction (Volume) using the MTF suite.
The objective is to achieve superior signal quality and adaptability, moving beyond conventional pullback methodologies.
2. Core Methodology: Synergistic Integration
AFPS's effectiveness stems from the engineered synergy between its core components:
2.1. Multi-Fibonacci Supertrend Engine: Utilizes specific Fibonacci ratios (0.618, 1.618, 2.618) applied to ATR, creating a multi-layered volatility envelope potentially resonant with market harmonics. The averaged and EMA-smoothed result (`smoothed_supertrend`) provides a robust, dynamic trend baseline and context filter.
// Key Components: Multi-Fibonacci Supertrend & Smoothing
average_supertrend = (supertrend1 + supertrend2 + supertrend3) / 3
smoothed_supertrend = ta.ema(average_supertrend, st_smooth_length)
2.2. Adaptive Moving Average (AMA) Channel: Provides dynamic market context. The `ama_midline` serves as a key filter in the entry logic, confirming the broader trend bias relative to adaptive price action. Extended Fibonacci levels derived from the channel width offer potential dynamic S/R zones.
// Key Component: AMA Midline
ama_midline = (ama_high_band + ama_low_band) / 2
2.3. Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Filter Suite: An optional but powerful validation layer (RSI, MACD, Volume) assessed on a lower timeframe. Acts as a **validation cascade** – signals must pass all enabled filters simultaneously.
2.4. High-Confluence Entry Logic: The core innovation. A pullback entry requires a specific sequence and validation:
Price interaction with `average_supertrend` and recovery above/below `smoothed_supertrend`.
Price confirmation relative to the `ama_midline`.
Simultaneous validation by all enabled MTF filters.
// Simplified Long Entry Logic Example (incorporates key elements)
long_entry_condition = enable_long_positions and
(low < average_supertrend and close > smoothed_supertrend) and // Pullback & Recovery
(close > ama_midline and close > ama_midline) and // AMA Confirmation
(rsi_filter_long_ok and macd_filter_long_ok and volume_filter_ok) // MTF Validation
This strict, multi-stage confluence significantly elevates signal quality compared to simpler pullback approaches.

3. Realistic Implementation and Performance Potential
AFPS is designed for practical application, incorporating realistic defaults and highlighting performance potential with crucial context:
3.1. Realistic Default Strategy Settings:
The script includes responsible default parameters:
strategy('Adaptive Fibonacci Pullback System - FibonacciFlux', shorttitle = "AFPS", ...,
initial_capital = 10000, // Accessible capital
default_qty_type = strategy.percent_of_equity, // Equity-based risk
default_qty_value = 4, // Default 4% equity risk per initial trade
commission_type = strategy.commission.percent,
commission_value = 0.03, // Realistic commission
slippage = 2, // Realistic slippage
pyramiding = 2 // Limited pyramiding allowed
)
Note: The default 4% risk (`default_qty_value = 4`) requires careful user assessment and adjustment based on individual risk tolerance.
3.2. Historical Performance Insights & Institutional Potential:
Backtesting provides insights into historical behavior under specific conditions (always specify Asset/Timeframe/Dates when sharing results):
Default Performance Example: With defaults, historical tests might show characteristics like Overall PF ~1.38, Max DD ~1.16%, with potential Long/Short performance variance (e.g., Long PF 1.6+, Short PF < 1).
Optimized MTF Filter Performance: Crucially, historical simulations demonstrate that meticulous configuration of the MTF filters (particularly RSI and potentially others depending on market) can significantly enhance performance. Under specific, optimized MTF filter settings combined with appropriate risk management (e.g., 7.5% risk), historical tests have indicated the potential to achieve **Profit Factors exceeding 2.6**, alongside controlled drawdowns (e.g., ~1.32%). This level of performance, if consistently achievable (which requires ongoing adaptation), aligns with metrics often sought in institutional trading environments.
Disclaimer Reminder: These results are strictly historical simulations. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Achieving high performance requires careful parameter tuning, adaptation to changing markets, and robust risk management.
3.3. Emphasizing Risk Management:
Effective use of AFPS mandates active risk management. Utilize the built-in Stop Loss, Take Profit, and Trailing Stop features. The `pyramiding = 2` setting requires particularly diligent oversight. Do not rely solely on default settings.
4. Conclusion: Advancing Trend Pullback Strategies
The Adaptive Fibonacci Pullback System (AFPS) offers a sophisticated, theoretically grounded, and highly adaptable framework for identifying and executing high-probability trend pullback trades. Its unique blend of Fibonacci resonance, adaptive context, and multi-dimensional MTF filtering represents a significant advancement over conventional methods. While requiring thoughtful implementation and risk management, AFPS provides discerning traders with a powerful tool potentially capable of achieving institutional-level performance characteristics under optimized conditions.
