Momentum Burst Pullback System v66* Detects **momentum “bursts”** using:
* **Keltner breakout** (high above upper band for long, low below lower band for short), and/or
* **MACD histogram extreme** (highest/lowest in a lookback window, with correct sign).
* Optional **burst-zone extension** keeps the burst “active” for N extra bars after the burst.
* Marks bursts with **K** (Keltner) and **M** (MACD) labels:
* Core burst labels use one color, extension labels use a different color.
* Tracks the most recent burst as the **dominant side** (long or short), and stores burst “leg” anchors (high/low context).
* Adds **structure-based invalidation**:
* On a new **core burst**, it locks the most recent **confirmed swing** level (pivot):
* Long: locks the last confirmed **swing low**.
* Short: locks the last confirmed **swing high**.
* After the burst, if price **breaks that locked level**, the burst regime is **cancelled** (and any pending setup on that side is dropped).
* Finds **pullback setups** after a dominant burst (and not inside the active burst zone), within min/max bars:
* Long pullback requires a sequence of **lower highs** and price still below the burst high.
* Short pullback requires **higher lows** and price still above the burst low.
* Optional background shading highlights pullback bars.
* On pullback bars, plots **static TP/SL crosses** using ATR:
* Anchor is the pullback bar’s high (long) or low (short).
* TP/SL are ± ATR * multiple.
* TP plots are visually classified (bright vs faded) based on whether TP would exceed the prior burst extreme.
* Maintains a **state-machine entry + trailing stop**:
* Sets a “waiting” trigger on pullback.
* Enters when price breaks the trigger (high break for long, low break for short).
* Trails a stop using **R-multiples**, with different behavior pre-break-even, post-break-even, and near-TP.
* Optionally draws the trailing stop as horizontal line segments.
* Optionally shows a **last-bar label** with the most recent pullback’s TP and SL values.

DZDZ – Pivot Demand Zones + Trend Filter + Breadth Override + SL is a structured accumulation indicator built to identify high-probability demand areas after valid pullbacks.
The script creates **Demand Zones (DZ)** by pairing **pivot troughs (local lows)** with later **pivot peaks (local highs)**, requiring a minimum **ATR (Average True Range)** gap to confirm real price displacement. Zones are drawn only when market structure confirms strength through a **trend filter** (a required number of higher highs over a recent window) or a **breadth override**, which activates after unusually large expansion candles measured as a percentage move from the prior close.
In addition to pivots, the script detects **coiling price action**—tight trading ranges contained within an ATR band—and treats these as alternative demand bases.
Entries require price to penetrate a defined depth into the zone, preventing shallow reactions. After the first valid entry, a **DCA (Dollar-Cost Averaging)** system adds buys every 10 bars while trend or breadth conditions persist. A **ratcheting SL (Stop-Loss)** tightens upward only, using demand structure or ATR when zones are unavailable.
The focus is disciplined, volatility-aware accumulation aligned with structure.
Colby Cheese VWAP Setup [v2.0]🔧 Core Refactors
• Imbalance function fixed:
• Removed invalid usage.
• Now uses for past bar references.
• Bias checks are handled outside the function with proper series indexing.
• Bias alignment:
• Added and so CHoCH signals only fire when price change agrees with EMA bias.
• Swing reset:
• After a valid CHoCH, and reset to so stale levels don’t keep firing.
• Line/label management:
• CHoCH lines and labels now reuse persistent IDs (, ) instead of spamming new objects every trigger.
✨ New Features
• Anticipation mode:
• Blue “Anticipate” lines/labels drawn when delta + bias align before CHoCH confirmation.
• Helps you see potential setups earlier.
• Entry zone lines:
• Solid green/red lines drawn at entry levels when is enabled.
• Separate from FRVP dashed zones.
• Stop‑loss lines:
• Orange dotted lines drawn opposite the entry zone when is enabled.
• Gives a visual risk marker.
🎨 Visual Consistency
• Candle coloring simplified: white candles only when CHoCH triggers.
• FRVP zones remain dashed lines with “Enter” labels.
• Anticipation zones are blue solid lines.
• Entry zones are solid green/red.
• Stop‑loss lines are orange dotted.
Liquidity Sweep Reentry ToolkitHere’s a clear breakdown of what your Liquidity Sweep Reentry Toolkit script does, and how you can use it on your charts:
🔎 Script Breakdown
1. Visual Controls (Inputs)
• : Master toggle to turn all visuals on/off.
• : Show labels when a liquidity sweep + ChoCh condition occurs.
• : Plot green/red triangles for bullish/bearish reentry signals.
• : Prevent multiple signals within the same swing.
• : Show HH/HL/LL/LH market structure letters.
• : Slider to adjust how dim the background of HH/HL/LL/LH labels appear.
2. Core Conditions
• Defines simple bullish () and bearish () candles.
• is a placeholder for your Change of Character logic.
3. Sweep Detection
• : Detects when price makes a new high compared to the last 5 bars.
• : Detects when price makes a new low compared to the last 5 bars.
4. Restriction Flags
• Tracks whether a sweep signal has already triggered in the current swing.
• Resets when sweeps end, so new signals can appear.
5. Composite Triggers
• : Fires when bullish candle + buy-side sweep + ChoCh condition align.
• : Fires when bearish candle + sell-side sweep + ChoCh condition align.
6. Visual Labels
• Gold labels mark “BS Sweep + ChoCh” or “SS Sweep + ChoCh” events.
• Green triangle below bar = bullish reentry.
• Red triangle above bar = bearish reentry.
• Blue HH/HL/LL/LH labels narrate market structure pivots, with adjustable transparency.
7. Alerts
• Alerts can be set for bullish or bearish sweep reentry triggers, so you get notified when conditions align.
📘 How to Use It
1. Apply to Chart
Add the script to your TradingView chart (works best on intraday timeframes like 5‑minute).
2. Configure Visuals
• Use the Visual Controls panel to toggle features on/off.
• Adjust the Label Transparency slider to dim or brighten the HH/HL/LL/LH labels.
3. Interpret Signals
• Gold labels show when a sweep + ChoCh condition occurs.
• Triangles mark potential reentry points (green = bullish, red = bearish).
• HH/HL/LL/LH labels narrate market structure shifts for clarity.
4. Set Alerts
• Use the built‑in alert conditions to get notified when bullish or bearish sweep reentry triggers fire.
👉 In short: this toolkit helps you spot liquidity sweeps, confirm with ChoCh, and visualize reentry signals, while also narrating market structure pivots. It’s modular, so you can toggle features depending on how much visual clutter you want.
🛠 Workflow Example
1. Setup
• Apply the script to your chart (e.g., 5‑minute S&P futures).
• In the indicator settings, decide which visuals you want:
• Turn on Sweep + ChoCh labels if you want to see gold tags narrating liquidity events.
• Keep Entry triangles on to highlight actionable reentry points.
• Adjust the Label Transparency slider so HH/HL/LL/LH structure labels are dim enough not to clutter.
2. Watch for Sweeps
• As price pushes above recent highs → a Buy‑side Sweep is detected.
• As price dips below recent lows → a Sell‑side Sweep is detected.
• If ChoCh logic is true at the same time, you’ll see a gold label (“BS Sweep + ChoCh” or “SS Sweep + ChoCh”).
3. Confirm Reentry
• If conditions align (bullish candle + buy‑side sweep + ChoCh), you’ll see a green triangle below the bar.
• If bearish candle + sell‑side sweep + ChoCh, you’ll see a red triangle above the bar.
• These triangles are your potential reentry triggers.
4. Narrate Market Structure
• HH/HL/LL/LH labels appear at pivots, giving you a running commentary of structure shifts.
• Example: HH → HL → HH shows bullish continuation; LH → LL → LH shows bearish pressure.
• Use the transparency slider to keep these labels subtle but visible.
5. Alerts
• Set alerts for “Bullish Sweep Reentry” or “Bearish Sweep Reentry” so you don’t miss signals even if you’re away from the screen.
📘 How to Use in Practice
• Intraday trading: On a 5‑minute chart, use the toolkit to spot liquidity grabs and confirm reentry points.
• Narration: The HH/HL/LL/LH labels help you keep track of structure without manually marking pivots.
• Decision making: Gold labels + triangles = potential trade setups. Structure labels = context for trend bias.
• Customization: Dim labels when you want a cleaner chart, brighten them when you’re focused on structure.
👉 In short: this script gives you a modular toolkit — sweeps, ChoCh confirmation, reentry signals, and structure narration — all adjustable so you can tailor the visuals to your workflow.
📈 Bullish Scenario Walkthrough
1. Market Context
• You’re watching the 5‑minute chart.
• Price has been consolidating near recent highs, building liquidity above.
2. Liquidity Sweep
• Price spikes above the prior swing high → the script detects a buy‑side sweep.
• A gold label appears: “BS Sweep + ChoCh” (if your ChoCh condition is true).
3. Change of Character (ChoCh)
• The candle closes bullish ().
• Your ChoCh condition confirms a structural shift.
• Together, sweep + ChoCh = potential reentry setup.
4. Reentry Trigger
• The script plots a green triangle below the bar.
• This marks a bullish sweep reentry signal: price grabbed liquidity and is now showing strength.
5. Market Structure Narration
• At the same time, the HH/HL labels update:
• The sweep bar prints a new HH.
• The next pivot low prints an HL.
• This narrates bullish continuation: HH → HL → HH.
6. Trade Decision
• You can use the green triangle as your entry cue.
• The HH/HL narration gives you confidence that structure supports the trade.
• Alerts can be set so you don’t miss the trigger.
7. Risk Management
• Stop placement: below the HL pivot or sweep low.
• Target: next liquidity pool above, or measured move.
🧭 How to Use This in Practice
• Gold label = liquidity event + ChoCh confirmation.
• Green triangle = actionable bullish reentry trigger.
• HH/HL narration = context for trend bias and trade management.
• Transparency slider = keep structure labels subtle so the chart stays clean.
📉 Bearish Scenario Walkthrough
1. Market Context
• You’re watching the 5‑minute chart.
• Price has been consolidating near recent lows, building liquidity underneath.
2. Liquidity Sweep
• Price spikes below the prior swing low → the script detects a sell‑side sweep.
• A gold label appears: “SS Sweep + ChoCh” (if your ChoCh condition is true).
3. Change of Character (ChoCh)
• The candle closes bearish ().
• Your ChoCh condition confirms a structural shift.
• Together, sweep + ChoCh = potential bearish reentry setup.
4. Reentry Trigger
• The script plots a red triangle above the bar.
• This marks a bearish sweep reentry signal: price grabbed liquidity below and is now showing weakness.
5. Market Structure Narration
• At the same time, the LH/LL labels update:
• The sweep bar prints a new LL.
• The next pivot high prints a LH.
• This narrates bearish continuation: LH → LL → LH.
6. Trade Decision
• You can use the red triangle as your entry cue.
• The LH/LL narration gives you confidence that structure supports the short.
• Alerts can be set so you don’t miss the trigger.
7. Risk Management
• Stop placement: above the LH pivot or sweep high.
• Target: next liquidity pool below, or measured move.
🧭 How to Use This in Practice
• Gold label = liquidity event + ChoCh confirmation.
• Red triangle = actionable bearish reentry trigger.
• LH/LL narration = context for trend bias and trade management.
• Transparency slider = keep structure labels subtle so the chart stays clean.

**Why It's Dangerous:**
- Stop hunts are common
- Whipsaws everywhere
- News-driven volatility
- No technical reliability
- Even "perfect" setups fail
**When Does It End:**
- Volatility ratio drops < 1.5
- ADX starts rising (direction appears)
- Price respects support/resistance again
- Usually 1-5 days
---
## CONFLUENCE SYSTEM
### How It Works
The system scores each potential entry on 5 factors. More factors aligning = higher probability.
### Confluence Requirements by Regime
**Trending Regimes** (strictest):
- Minimum 2/5 required
- 3/5 = Good
- 4-5/5 = Excellent
**Ranging Regimes** (moderate):
- Minimum 1-2/5 required
- 2/5 = Good
- 3+/5 = Excellent
**Consolidation** (breakout only):
- Volume is most critical
- Direction confirmation
- Less confluence needed
### Adjusting Minimum Confluence
**If too few signals:**
- Lower from 2 to 1
- More trades, lower quality
**If too many false signals:**
- Raise from 2 to 3
- Fewer trades, higher quality
**Recommendation:**
- Start at 2
- Adjust based on win rate
- Aim for 55-65% win rate

## COMMON QUESTIONS
**Q: How many trades per month should I expect?**
A: Depends on timeframe and settings. Daily chart: 5-15 trades/month. 4H chart: 15-30 trades/month.
**Q: What's a good win rate?**
A: 55-65% is excellent. 50-55% is good. Below 50% needs adjustment.
**Q: Should I trade all regimes?**
A: Beginners: Only trending. Intermediate: Trending + ranging. Advanced: All except chaos.

Trading Value RSI (NQ Tuned)The Trading Value RSI (NQ Tuned) is an indicator that applies the RSI calculation to trading value, defined as volume × close, rather than just price. It is specifically tuned for Nasdaq 100 futures (NQ), with a default RSI length of 24, overbought level at 75, and oversold level at 25 to filter out false signals from high volatility. The indicator visually colors the RSI line based on overbought (red), oversold (green), or neutral (blue) conditions. A horizontal midline at 50 helps identify potential trend direction changes or confirm ongoing momentum. This tool allows traders to monitor capital flow intensity, giving insight into when strong buying or selling pressure may drive short-term market moves.
Timeframe Overlay 24HrDaily High–Low Box (00:00–23:59)
This indicator highlights each trading day with a shaded box spanning from 00:00 to 23:59 (based on the selected timezone) and covering the day’s highest and lowest price.
• Green box when the day closes above its open
• Red box when the day closes below its open
• Historical days are fully drawn for easy comparison
• Current day box builds dynamically as new candles form
Useful for visualising daily range, market bias, and intraday structure across all timeframes.

QQQ/ES Overlay on NQQQQ/ES Overlay on NQ
This indicator overlays QQQ or ES price levels onto your NQ chart, dynamically mapping reference levels from your chosen symbol to equivalent NQ prices. Perfect for tracking correlations between Nasdaq futures and related instruments.
Key Features
Dual Symbol Support - Toggle between QQQ and ES with a dropdown. Each symbol uses optimized defaults: QQQ shows every 1 point, ES shows every 5 points.
Pre-Market Ready - Extended session support starting at 4:00 AM ET captures pre-market movement. By 9:00 AM, levels accurately reflect overnight action.
Smart Level Mapping - Calculates real-time ratio between NQ and your overlay symbol, then maps round price levels (like QQQ 614 or ES 5985) to equivalent NQ prices.
Anti-Jitter Technology - Stability threshold prevents lines from shaking on minor movements while maintaining accuracy.
How It Works
The indicator fetches live prices from both QQQ and ES, calculates the dynamic ratio to NQ, and displays mapped reference levels. For example, if NQ trades at 21,500 and QQQ at 614, the ratio is approximately 35.016. This means QQQ 615 maps to roughly 21,535 on your NQ chart.
Customization
Choose overlay source (QQQ or ES)
Adjust level increments independently for each symbol
Set number of levels above/below price
Customize line style, width, and color
Control label appearance and position
Fine-tune update sensitivity
Use Cases
Track market correlations in real-time, identify divergences between instruments, trade off psychological round numbers from correlated markets, monitor pre-market relationships, and maintain consistent reference levels across timeframes.
Settings
Default configuration shows 20 levels above and below current price with white lines at 40% opacity. QQQ uses 1-point increments, ES uses 5-point increments. Labels appear 8 bars to the right with dashed lines. Minimum 0.5-point move required to update positions.
Technical Notes
Designed specifically for NQ charts. Uses extended session data (4:00 AM - 8:00 PM ET) for live calculations. Outside trading hours, maintains ratio from previous close. Real-time updates depend on active data feed for all symbols.
ODTE Trades Layman Signals This indicator is designed to simplify intraday options trading (0DTE / weeklies) by converting complex price-action logic into clear, easy-to-understand signals.

The Strat Candle Types (1 / 2U / 2D / 3)This script uses TheStrat candle numbers 1, 2D, 2U, 3 and places the text below or above. You can also change the text size. This also allows you to change the colors of the candles with two options for the 1 & 3 so you can color them in the direction they are going. For example a 1 that is green can be green and a 1 that is red can be red.
Scalping Signals with MTF Fibo BandsThis indicator is a scalping / intraday signal system built on Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Fibonacci Bands, combined with an RSI midline filter and an optional direction-lock mechanism to reduce consecutive losing entries.
🔹 What does this indicator do?
It plots two independent Fibonacci Band sets (A & B), each calculated from a higher timeframe SMA + ATR.
Entry zones are defined between Band 2 and Band 3, representing statistically extreme price areas.
You can choose to generate signals from:
Band A only
Band B only
BOTH (A + B confirmation)
📈 Entry Logic
LONG
Price closes inside the Lower Zone (between Fib2 Lower & Fib3 Lower)
RSI is above the midline (default 50)
SHORT
Price closes inside the Upper Zone (between Fib2 Upper & Fib3 Upper)
RSI is below the midline (default 50)
🟧 Direction Lock System
If enabled, the indicator locks the trade direction when a position hits Stop Loss before reaching TP1.
This prevents repeated entries in the same direction during unfavorable conditions.
🔓 Unlock Logic
The lock can be removed when:
RSI crosses back over the midline (RSI > 50 for LONG, RSI < 50 for SHORT)
AND price closes again inside the valid Band 2–3 zone
With the optional setting enabled, a new entry can occur on the same candle
🛑 Stop Loss Logic (Important)
This indicator uses price-action-based stop logic, not fixed pip stops.
1️⃣ Before TP1
LONG: Two consecutive candle closes below Fib3 Lower
SHORT: Two consecutive candle closes above Fib3 Upper
⚠️ Because SL depends on candle closes, you must monitor lower timeframes (1m or below) to react quickly and avoid delayed exits.
2️⃣ After TP1 (Break-Even Protection)
Once TP1 is touched:
SL automatically shifts to Break-Even (entry price)
Any return to entry will close the position
⚠️ Usage Warning
This indicator is NOT designed for sharp, explosive, or news-driven moves
Avoid using it during:
High-impact news
Extremely fast impulsive candles
Sudden volatility spikes
Best performance is achieved in structured price action environments, not chaotic market conditions.
TuxAlgo Plus SMC u. Trap Toolkit Rel.V0.98r by McTogaTuxAlgo Plus – Smart Money Concepts + Smart Money Traps + Fair Value Gaps Version: V0.98r (Alpha/Pre-Release) with integrated 2% risk calculator
The “TuxAlgo Plus” indicator is a powerful, standalone, conceptual open-source project and self-sufficient “smart money toolkit” with automatic trap detection (SMT), liquidity grabs, FVG confluence, and complete bot setup signals for TradingView charts in the “H1 to H6” time frame and the daily chart.
The script is used to improve SMC/trap analysis, i.e., the structure and visualization logic for TradingView charts has been expanded in the “TuxAlgo++” project in line with Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Smart Money Traps (SMT).
The “TuxAlgo” Pine script is a standalone implementation of smart money concepts (structure, BOS/CHOCH, simple order blocks, fair value gaps) written from scratch. Terms such as “BOS,” “CHOCH,” “order block,” and “fair value gap” are commonly used concepts in market technology. This means that the market structure is often visible on the ‘H4’ time frame
and the trigger on the “H1” time frame.
MGC1! - Stats jour du Weekly High/Low Lun VenIndicator Name: Weekly High/Low Day Statistics (Probability Dashboard)
Description:
This indicator provides a statistical edge by analyzing historical price action to determine which day of the week is most likely to form the Weekly High or the Weekly Low.
Designed for intraday traders and swing traders, this tool helps you anticipate the structure of the weekly candle. By understanding the probabilities of when the extremums (HOD/LOD of the week) usually occur, you can better align your trade setups with the true weekly expansion.
Key Features:
Historical Analysis: Calculates statistics based on a user-defined lookback period (default is 104 weeks / 2 years) to ensure statistical significance.
Probability Dashboard: Displays a clean table on the chart showing the percentage chance for each day (Monday to Friday) to be the High or Low of the week.
Rolling Window: Automatically updates data at the close of every week to keep probabilities current.
How to Use (ICT/SMC Context):
Weekly Profiles: Use this data to validate "Classic Tuesday Low" or "Wednesday/Thursday Reversal" profiles.
Bias Confirmation: If the statistics show a 40% chance of the Weekly Low forming on a Tuesday, and price is diving into a Higher Timeframe POI on Tuesday morning, this adds high-probability confluence to your long setups.
Targeting: If the Weekly High typically forms on Thursday and it is currently Wednesday, you can hold runners for an expansion into the next day.
Clean Market Structure & Trend Confirmation ( Updated ) CLEAN MARKET STRUCTURE & TREND CONFIRMATION — 24H CONTINUATION EDITION
This indicator is designed to help traders identify clear market direction, confirm trend strength, and manage trades with structured take-profit and stop levels. It works by aligning trend, momentum, and structure before showing any BUY or SELL signal. Signals are selective by design to reduce noise and false entries.
This version includes an optional continuation mode, allowing additional high-quality signals when trends persist, while still maintaining discipline and structure.
HOW TO LOAD AND USE (IMPORTANT)
Add the indicator to your chart.
Recommended symbols: SPY, QQQ, ES1!, NQ1! (works on stocks and futures).
Recommended timeframes:
• 5-minute (default and most balanced)
• 1-minute (faster, more active, optional)
No refresh is required each day. The script resets automatically.
RECOMMENDED DEFAULT SETTINGS
• 9:25 Bias Filter: ON
• Continuation Signals: ON
• TP Ladder: ON
• Keep Only Most Recent TP Ladder: ON
• Execute on Candle Close: optional (ON = safer, OFF = faster)
These defaults provide the best balance between discipline and opportunity.
HOW THE RIBBON WORKS (CORE TREND FILTER)
The ribbon is the foundation of the system.
• Teal ribbon = bullish trend
• Red ribbon = bearish trend
• Gray ribbon = no-trade zone
The system avoids signals in gray conditions to reduce chop. Only trade in the direction of the ribbon.
BULL AND BEAR DOTS
Bull and Bear dots mark confirmed trend flips.
• Bull dot = trend has flipped bullish
• Bear dot = trend has flipped bearish
These are not trades by themselves. They are early awareness signals that help you prepare for potential entries.
BUY AND SELL ARROWS (TRADE SIGNALS)
BUY and SELL arrows appear only when:
• Ribbon direction is aligned
• Trend structure confirms
• Momentum and volume agree
• Market conditions are favorable
These arrows represent high-probability trade opportunities, not constant signals.
TAKE PROFIT & STOP LEVELS
When a BUY or SELL arrow prints:
• TP1, TP2, TP3 levels appear automatically
• A STOP level is plotted automatically
• Levels are based on volatility and adjust to market conditions
Only the most recent trade plan is shown to keep the chart clean.
CONTINUATION MODE (WHAT’S DIFFERENT)
Compared to the original version:
• This version can take more than one trade per day
• It allows new trades when trends reset and realign
• It does NOT chase every candle
• It still requires full confirmation before each signal
Think of this as adaptive trend participation, not aggressive scalping.
1-MINUTE VS 5-MINUTE USE
• 5-minute: fewer signals, higher confidence, best for most users
• 1-minute: earlier entries, more activity, requires discipline
You do NOT need to switch back and forth constantly. Pick one timeframe and stay consistent.
IMPORTANT NOTES FOR NEW USERS
• Fewer signals is a feature, not a flaw
• Missing a move is better than forcing a bad trade
• Always manage risk and position size
• This indicator assists decision-making — it does not predict the future
DISCLAIMER
This indicator is for educational purposes only. It is not financial advice. Trading involves risk, and you are responsible for all trading decisions. Use proper risk management and only trade with capital you can afford to lose.
