[LJ] HTF Candles with Volume POC [Highly Optimized]Welcome to the ultimate Higher Timeframe (HTF) fusion tool.
This indicator seamlessly merges Higher Timeframe price action with precise volume profiling on Lower Timeframe (LTF) charts. By utilizing advanced array memory management, it bypasses TradingView's drawing limits to render clean HTF candle boxes and their exact Volume Point of Control (POC), ensuring peak performance and accuracy even on extreme timeframe combinations.
🔎 Visual Guide: What's on Your Chart?
The Big Boxes (Wick & Body): These represent the Open, High, Low, and Close of your selected Higher Timeframe (e.g., a 1-Hour candle projected onto your 5-Minute chart). Color-coded for bullish/bearish momentum.
The Midline: A horizontal line dividing the HTF candle perfectly in half. Useful for gauging if LTF price is in a "premium" or "discount" zone relative to the HTF.
The Yellow Box (The POC): This is the Point of Control. When an HTF candle closes, this yellow box locks in place, showing the exact price zone that saw the highest volume accumulation during that period, calculated using precise LTF hlc3 price data.
⚙️ Key Settings & Configuration
To get the most out of this indicator, check these inputs in the settings menu:
Box Time Interval: Set this to your desired HTF (e.g., "1H", "4H", "D").
Tip: A good rule of thumb is an HTF that is 5x to 12x higher than your current chart.
POC Resolution (Levels): This is your fine-tuning dial.
Set to 50 - 100: Creates a very thin, precise POC line. Great for exact support/resistance levels.
Set to 15 - 35: Creates a thicker POC "Zone". Great for capturing broader areas of high liquidity.
Max Historical Boxes: Controls how far back the indicator draws. Keep this at 50 for a clean chart and fast loading times.
📈 Trading Strategies: How to Trade the HTF POC
1. The "Magnet" Mean Reversion High volume nodes (POCs) act as price magnets. If the current LTF price is far away from the previous HTF candle's POC, look for setups that trade back toward that yellow box.
2. The Break & Retest The POC box acts as a heavy Support/Resistance wall. If price breaks through the yellow POC box with strong momentum, look to enter on the retest of that box in the direction of the breakout.
3. Trend Continuation In a strong uptrend, look for the current LTF price to bounce off the Midline or the previous candle's POC to join the dominant HTF trend.
⚡ Performance Note
This indicator uses advanced Pine Script Array Management. Unlike standard volume profile scripts that crash when calculating big timeframes, this indicator guarantees zero lag and no disappearing boxes, even when looking at a Daily HTF on a 1-Minute chart.

Signal Architect Stop-Hunt ProxySignal Architect™ — Developer Note
These daily posts are intentional.
They are designed to help potential users visually observe consistency—not just in outcomes, but in process—across multiple futures products, market conditions, and timeframes, using the Stop Hunt Indicator alongside my proprietary Signal Architect™ framework.
The goal is simple:
To show how structure, behavior, and probability repeat—every day—despite a constantly changing market.
If you follow these posts over time, you will begin to recognize that:
• The same behaviors appear across different futures contracts
• The same reactions occur on multiple timeframes
• The same structural traps and stop events repeat regardless of volatility regime
That consistency is not coincidence.
Consistency is the signal.
Over time, that consistency should become familiar—
and familiarity should become your edge.

Ultimate Futures Daytrade Suite v1 - The Strategy GuideHere is the complete **Strategy Guide** translated into English.
---
# 📘 Ultimate Futures Daytrade Suite – The Strategy Guide
### 1. The Visual Legend (What is what?)
Before you trade, you need to understand the hierarchy of your lines. Not every line has the same importance.
* **🟣 Daily EMA 50 (Neon Violet):** The **"Big Boss"**. It determines the **Macro Trend**.
* *Price above:* We are primarily looking for Longs.
* *Price below:* We are primarily looking for Shorts.
* **🟢 4h EMA 50 (Neon Green):** The **"Swing Trend"**. Your most important level for **Pullback Entries** (Re-entries).
* **🟡 POC (Gold) & TPO:** The **"Magnet"**. Price often returns here.
* *Rule:* Never open a trade directly *on* the POC (Risk of "Chop"). Use it as a **Target** (Take Profit).
* **🟠 IB High/Low (Orange Lines):** The **"Daily Structure"**.
* A breakout from the IB (Initial Balance) often indicates the trend direction for the day.
* **🟥/🟩 Boxes (Supply/Demand):** Resistance and Support zones from the 1h timeframe.
* **⬜ FVG Boxes:** "Gaps" in the market that are often filled.
---
### 2. The Trading Workflow (Top-Down Method)
Go through this mental checklist before every trade:
#### Step 1: Trend Check (The Traffic Light)
Look at the **Violet Line (Daily)** and the **Green Line (4h)**.
* **Bullish:** Price is above Violet AND above Green. -> *Focus: Buy dips.*
* **Bearish:** Price is below Violet AND below Green. -> *Focus: Sell rallies.*
* **Mixed:** Price is between Violet and Green. -> *Caution! Market is undecided (Range Trading).*
#### Step 2: Location (The Context)
Where is the price currently located?
* Are we at a **Green Demand Zone**?
* Are we testing the **4h EMA 50 (Green)** from above?
* Are we at the **VWAP**?
* *Never trade in "No Man's Land"!* Wait until the price touches one of your lines.
#### Step 3: Trigger (The Execution)
Now zoom into your lower timeframe (e.g., 5min or 15min).
* Wait for a reaction at the zone.
* Use the **EMA 9 (Yellow)** as a momentum trigger. If price breaks the EMA 9 and closes above/below it, that is your "Go".
---
### 3. The Setup Blueprints
Here are the two most profitable scenarios you can trade with this script:
#### A) The "Golden Trend" Setup (Long)
* **Context:** Price > **Daily EMA (Violet)**.
* **Preparation:** Price corrects (drops) back to the **4h EMA 50 (Green)** or to the **VWAP**.
* **Confluence:** Ideally, there is also a **Demand Zone (Green Box)** or an **FVG** at that level.
* **Entry:** As soon as a candle touches the zone and closes bullish again (or reclaims the EMA 9).
* **Stop-Loss:** Below the 4h EMA 50.
* **Take-Profit:** Next **Supply Zone (Red)** or the **IB High (Orange)**.
#### B) The "Daytrade Breakout" (Intraday)
* **Context:** Price opens inside yesterday's Value Area.
* **Signal:** Price breaks through the **IB High (Orange)** with momentum.
* **Filter:** Price must be above the **VWAP**.
* **Entry:** On the retest of the IB High or directly on the breakout.
* **Target:** Price often trends in that direction for the rest of the day.
---
### 4. Warning Signals (When NOT to trade)
1. **The "Concrete Ceiling":** If you want to go Long, but the **Violet Daily EMA 50** is running directly above you. This is massive resistance. Better wait until it is broken.
2. **The "POC Dance":** If price is dancing sideways around the **Gold Line (POC)**. This is a "No-Trade Zone". Day traders lose the most money here due to fees and whipsaws.
3. **Overextension:** If price is extremely far away from the **4h EMA 50 (Green)** (Rubber Band Effect). Do not enter in the trend direction here; wait for a pullback to the line.
### Summary
Your chart is now telling you a story:
* **Violet** tells you the Direction.
* **Green** gives you the Entry.
* **Red/Green Boxes** show you the Obstacles.
* **Yellow (EMA 9)** gives you the Timing.
Good luck with the Suite! This is a setup similar to what institutional traders use.
Compression-to-Expansion Early Warning (CEEWS)The Compression → Expansion Early Warning System (CEEWS) is a volatility-structure and market-timing indicator designed to identify periods of statistical price compression and to signal when that compression transitions into directional expansion. Rather than predicting direction in advance, CEEWS focuses on detecting when price action becomes tightly constrained and then confirms when stored energy begins to release.
CEEWS quantifies compression using a composite of volatility contraction, range tightening, candle overlap, and reference-level convergence, producing a normalized Build score (0–100) that reflects the degree of latent price pressure. Elevated Build values indicate that the market is coiled and increasingly susceptible to movement, while expansion signals occur only when volatility begins to expand and price breaks from its recent range.
The indicator is intended as a timing and transition tool, not a standalone trend or directional system. CEEWS is most effective when paired with broader regime or trend-health indicators and is particularly well suited for index funds and highly liquid markets, where prolonged consolidation phases often precede sharp directional moves. Its primary purpose is to help traders identify when the market is likely to move, not to forecast where it will go.

3. **The Zone:** Price touches the **Green Demand Zone** OR the **Orange Golden Pocket**.
4. **The Trigger:** A **Green FVG Box** appears on the 5-minute chart.
5. **Execution:** Enter Long. Stop Loss below the recent low. Take Profit at the next Red Zone.
#### 🔻 HOW TO ENTER A SHORT (SELL) POSITION
1. **Trend Check:** Price is trading **BELOW** the VWAP (Blue Line) and EMA 9 (Yellow Line).
2. **The Wait:** Wait for the price to rally up (pullback).
3. **The Zone:** Price touches the **Red Supply Zone** OR the **Orange Golden Pocket**.

*Use this specifically after the first hour of the New York Session (approx. 10:30 NY time).*
* **The Setup:** Look at the **Yellow Box (Initial Balance)** which marks the high/low of the first hour.
* **Bullish Breakout:** If a candle closes **above** the Yellow Box + Price is above VWAP → **Go Long**.
* **Bearish Breakdown:** If a candle closes **below** the Yellow Box + Price is below VWAP → **Go Short**.
* **The Trap (Fakeout):** If price breaks out but immediately falls back inside the Yellow Box, close the trade immediately.
---
### 5. DAILY ROUTINE (Checklist)
1. **Open TradingView:** Switch to the **15m Chart**.
2. **Check Context:** Where are we? Are we near a big Red Box (Supply) or Green Box (Demand)?
3. **Check Trend:** Is price above or below the Blue VWAP line?
4. **Wait for the Open:** Let the first hour of New York pass (to form the Yellow IB Box).
5. **Set Alerts:** Right-click the chart and set alerts for "IB Breakout" or "Golden Pocket".
6. **Execute:** Switch to the **5m Chart** to find your entry trigger (FVG).
---
### 6. RISK MANAGEMENT RULES
* **Stop Loss:** NEVER trade without one. Place it just outside the FVG box or the Zone.
* **Risk per Trade:** 1% to 2% of your account maximum.
* **No Trade Zone:** If the price is "chopping" (moving sideways) inside the Yellow IB Box, **do not trade**. Wait for a breakout.
APC HIRO Proxy Flow PressureAP Capital – HIRO Proxy (Flow Pressure)
AP Capital – HIRO Proxy is a price- and volume-based flow pressure oscillator designed to approximate institutional hedging / directional pressure using only native chart data.
⚠️ This is a proxy model. It does not use options-market data or real SpotGamma HIRO feeds.
🔍 What this indicator does
The indicator measures directional efficiency × volume pressure on every bar, accumulates it intraday, and then normalizes the result using a Z-score so it adapts cleanly across symbols and timeframes.
The output is displayed as candle-style pressure bars, making momentum shifts and pressure flips visually obvious.
🧠 Core Logic
Directional Efficiency
Measures how effectively price closes within its candle range
Strong closes near highs/lows increase pressure
Volume Weighting
Pressure is weighted by volume (optionally logarithmic)
Prevents single spikes from distorting the signal
Cumulative Flow
Pressure accumulates bar-by-bar
Optional daily reset for intraday trading
Z-Score Normalization
Normalizes pressure relative to recent history
Allows consistent thresholds across assets
📊 How to read the indicator
Green candles above zero
→ Net bullish pressure (buyers in control)
Red candles below zero
→ Net bearish pressure (sellers in control)
Zero line
→ Neutral balance / transition zone
±1 / ±2 Z-Bands
→ Elevated or extreme pressure conditions
Triangle signals
▲ Up Pressure → Z-score crosses above positive threshold
▼ Down Pressure → Z-score crosses below negative threshold

ATR ZigZag BreakoutATR ZigZag Breakout
This strategy uses my ATR ZigZag indicator (powered by the ZigZagCore library) to scalp breakouts at volatility-filtered highs and lows.
Everyone knows stops cluster around clear swing highs and lows. Breakout traders often pile in there, too. These levels are predictable areas where aggressive orders hit the tape. The idea here is simple:
→ Let ATR ZigZag define clean, volatility-filtered pivots
→ Arm a stop market order at those pivots
→ Join the breakout when the crowd hits the level
The key to greater success in this simple strategy lies in the ZigZag. Because the pivots are filtered by ATR instead of fixed bar counts or fractals, the levels tend to be more meaningful and less noisy.
This approach is especially suited for intraday trading on volatile instruments (e.g., NQ, GC, liquid crypto pairs).
How It Works
1. Pivot detection
The ATR ZigZag uses an ATR-based threshold to confirm swing highs and lows. Only when price has moved far enough in the opposite direction does a pivot become “official.”
2. Candidate breakout level
When a new swing direction is detected and the most recent high/low has not yet been broken in the current leg, the strategy arms a stop market order at that pivot.
• Long candidate → most recent swing high
• Short candidate → most recent swing low
These “candidate trades” are shown as dotted lines.
3. Entry, SL, and TP
If price breaks through the level, the stop order is filled and a bracket is placed:
• Stop loss = ATR × SL multiplier
• Take profit = SL distance × RR multiplier
Once a level has traded, it is not reused in the same swing leg.
4. Cancel & rotate
If the market reverses and forms a new swing in the opposite direction before the level is hit, the pending order is cancelled and a new candidate is considered in the new direction.
Additional Features
• Optional session filter for backtesting specific trading hours
Session Opening Range Breakout (ORBO)This strategy automates a classic Opening Range Breakout (ORBO) approach: it builds a price range for the first minutes after the market opens, then looks for strong breakouts above or below that range to catch early directional moves.
Concept
The idea behind ORBO is simple:
The first minutes after the session open are often highly informative.
Price forms an “opening range” that acts as a mini support/resistance zone.
A clean breakout beyond this zone can lead to high-momentum moves.
This script turns that logic into a fully backtestable strategy in TradingView.
How the strategy works
Opening Range Session
Default session: 09:30–09:50 (exchange time)
During this window, the script tracks:
orHigh → highest high within the session
orLow → lowest low within the session
This forms your Opening Range for the day.
Breakout Logic (after the window ends)
Once the defined session ends:
Long Entry:
If the close crosses above the Opening Range High (orHigh),
→ strategy.entry("OR Long", strategy.long) is triggered.
Short Entry:
If the close crosses below the Opening Range Low (orLow),
→ strategy.entry("OR Short", strategy.short) is triggered.
Only one opening range per day is considered, which keeps the logic clean and easy to interpret.
Daily Reset
At the start of a new trading day, the script resets:
orHigh := na
orLow := na
A fresh Opening Range is then built using the next session’s 09:30–09:50 candles.
This ensures entries are always based on today’s structure, not yesterday’s.
Visuals & Inputs
Inputs:
Opening range session → default: "0930-0950"
Show OR levels → toggle visibility of OR High / Low lines
Fill range body → optional shaded zone between OR High and OR Low
Chart visuals:
A green line marks the Opening Range High.
A red line marks the Opening Range Low.
Optional yellow fill highlights the entire OR zone.
Background shading during the session shows when the range is currently being built.
These visuals make it easy to see:
Where the OR sits relative to current price
How clean / noisy the breakout was
How often price respects or rejects the opening zone

VWAP TrendSignalVWAP TrendSignal
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) is the market’s true fair value — the benchmark institutions use to see when price is balanced, extended, or trending with real intent.
Price often snaps back when it moves too far (mean reversion), and only shows genuine strength when it holds above or below VWAP.
VWAP TrendSignal makes this insight effortless by color-coding VWAP direction:
Yellow = VWAP rising → bullish pressure
Red = VWAP falling → bearish pressure
No bands. No noise. Just pure directional clarity.
Anchor VWAP to the Session, Week, Month, Quarter, or Year, and tailor the Slope Smoothing Filter to your timeframe:
1–2 smoothing → fast & reactive (1–5m scalping)
3–5 smoothing → clean & stable (5–15m intraday)
6–10 smoothing → slow flips (1H–4H swings)
10–15 smoothing → macro bias only (Daily/Weekly)
The line adapts to how you trade.
How to Use It
Mean Reversion
When price stretches far from VWAP, expect pullbacks or snapbacks.
Trend Direction
Yellow supports long bias, red supports short bias.
Simple, reliable, instantly visible.
Balance Zones
Price sitting near VWAP = compression, buildup, or chop.
A perfect signal to wait or prepare for a breakout.
Why It Works
VWAP TrendSignal distills institutional logic into a clean, single-line tool.
It shows fair value, trend slope, and balance all at once — making your chart clearer and your decisions faster.
Once you get used to reading it, trading without it feels blind.

Average Volume Corner BoxAn indicator that anchors a single info box to the chart’s top right corner. It compares the current volume to a selectable moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA) and displays a status (VOL > AVG or VOL < AVG), the current volume, the average volume, and percent difference. The color switches between red and green backgrounds so you can read volume at a glance without cluttering the chart with those stinky volume rectangles.
Features
• Fixed corner box anchored to the chart top right
• Choose MA type: SMA, EMA, WMA
• Selectable MA length
• Optional percent difference display
• Threshold multiplier to only flag meaningful spikes (e.g., vol > avg * 1.5)
• Configurable colors and font size
SevenDayHighLowTableWithBoxes [CHE]SevenDayHighLowTableWithBoxes — Seven-day day-range boxes with a weekday-aware “ghost” projection and a compact table that tracks recent extremes and per-weekday hit rates.
Summary
This indicator visualizes each trading day as a colored box and annotates the final high and low with compact markers. It maintains a rolling seven-day view and a five-column table showing day name, high, low, range, and a per-weekday projection hit statistic. A dashed “ghost” box projects a typical range for the current weekday using a running average and an adjustable scaling factor. The script is written in Pine v6, runs on the main chart (overlay true), and emphasizes stable object handling and closed-bar finalization at day boundaries.
Motivation: Why this design?
Intraday traders often need fast context for where today’s price sits relative to recent daily extremes, without switching timeframes. A simple daily high/low overlay is informative but lacks structure, sizing context, and continuity. By grouping bars into local days (configurable UTC offset), drawing explicit boxes, and projecting a weekday-typical range, the chart becomes easier to scan. The compact table gives a quick audit trail of the latest seven days while tracking how often the weekday projection would have covered the realized range.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Reference baseline: Plain daily high/low lines or session boxes without context.
Architecture differences:
Weekday-tinted boxes and labels for today plus up to six prior days.
Weekday average range drives a dashed projection (“ghost”) sized by a user-defined percentage.
Per-weekday hit statistics recorded as hits over totals and displayed in the table.
ATR-based vertical offsets keep labels readable.
Live updates intraday; state is finalized at the local day switch.
Practical effect: The chart shows where current price sits inside a known daily envelope, plus how “typical” the day’s movement is for this weekday, aiding expectations and planning.
How it works (technical)
The script computes a local daily timestamp using the user’s UTC offset. A day change finalizes the prior day, writes its high, low, start and end indices, and records the bar indices of the terminal high and low.
For each weekday, it maintains a running average of realized ranges with a cap on the lookback count. The ghost projection length is the weekday average scaled by the user’s percentage setting.
Anchor selection for the ghost uses the most recent extreme and the close relative to the intraday midpoint to choose a low-anchored or high-anchored box.
A five-column table (Day, High, Low, Range, Ghost OK) is refreshed on the last bar. The “Ghost OK” column shows per-weekday cumulative hits over totals with a percentage, calculated before including the just-finished day.
Object counts are bounded to seven days by pruning arrays and deleting old boxes and labels. Visual updates for historical objects occur on the last bar to minimize overhead. No `security()` calls are used.

ATR Length / Day Label ATR Multiplier / Triangle Up ATR Multiplier / Triangle Down ATR Multiplier — Offsets for label placement — Defaults: length one hundred; multipliers zero — Increase on dense instruments to prevent overlap.
Reading & Interpretation
Day boxes: The filled rectangle marks each day’s full high-low span; color encodes the weekday.
Markers: Small dots near the terminal high and low highlight where the final extremes occurred.
Ghost box: A dashed box sized by the weekday average range, anchored based on recent behavior. It is a typical span, not a target.
Table: Row one shows “Today”. Rows below list up to six prior days. “Ghost OK” shows per-weekday cumulative hits over totals with a percentage, which reflects historical coverage quality for that weekday.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following: Use the current box plus recent boxes to read expansion or compression days; combine with basic structure such as higher-highs and higher-lows or lower-lows and lower-highs for confirmation.
Exits and risk: When price nears the ghost boundary late in the session, consider managing exposure more conservatively.
Multi-asset and multi-timeframe: Works on minute charts. As a starting point, use five to less than sixty minutes. For cross-checks, pair with a higher timeframe bias filter.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Repaint/confirmation: The indicator updates intraday; extremes and ghost position can move while the day is open. Values are finalized on the next local day start.
HTF/security: None used; repaint risk is limited to live-bar movement.
Resources: `max_bars_back` five thousand; arrays are pruned to seven days; the table and color sync run on the last bar; the live ghost updates only in real time.
Known limits: Weekday averages can be unrepresentative during regime shifts, events, or gaps. Day boundaries depend on the UTC offset being set correctly. No alerts are included. The script displays warning labels when the timeframe is below five minutes or at sixty minutes and above.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with the defaults.
Ghost too aggressive: Lower the percent scale.
Labels overlap: Increase ATR multipliers.
Clutter or performance issues: Hide the table or boxes, or disable the ghost.
Day boundary misaligned: Adjust the UTC offset to your market.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This is a visualization and context layer for daily extremes and a weekday-based typical span. It does not predict direction, does not manage orders, and is not a complete trading system. Use it alongside market structure, risk controls, and position management.
