Heat Map Trend (VIDYA MA) [BigBeluga]The Heat Map Trend (VIDYA MA) - BigBeluga indicator is a multi-timeframe trend detection tool based on the Volumetric Variable Index Dynamic Average (VIDYA). This indicator calculates trends using volume momentum, or volatility if volume data is unavailable, and displays the trends across five customizable timeframes. It features a heat map to visualize trends, color-coded candles based on an average of the five timeframes, and a dashboard that shows the current trend direction for each timeframe. This tool helps traders identify trends while minimizing market noise and is particularly useful in detecting faster market changes in shorter timeframes.
🔵 KEY FEATURES & USAGE
◉ Volumetric Variable Index Dynamic Average (VIDYA):
The core of the indicator is the VIDYA moving average, which adjusts dynamically based on volume momentum. If volume data isn't available, the indicator uses volatility instead to smooth the moving average. This allows traders to assess the trend direction with more accuracy, using either volume or volatility, if volume data is not provided, as the basis for the trend calculation.
// VIDYA CALCULATION -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// ATR (Average True Range) and volume calculation
bool volume_check = ta.cum(volume) <= 0
float atrVal = ta.atr(1)
float volVal = volume_check ? atrVal : volume // Use ATR if volume is not available
// @function: Calculate the VIDYA (Volumetric Variable Index Dynamic Average)
vidya(src, len, cmoLen) =>
float cmoVal = ta.sma(ta.cmo(volVal, cmoLen), 10) // Calculate the CMO and smooth it with an SMA
float absCmo = math.abs(cmoVal) // Absolute value of CMO
float alpha = 2 / (len + 1) // Alpha factor for smoothing
var float vidyaVal = 0.0 // Initialize VIDYA
vidyaVal := alpha * absCmo / 100 * src + (1 - alpha * absCmo / 100) * nz(vidyaVal ) // VIDYA formula
◉ Multi-Timeframe Trend Analysis with Heat Map Visualization:
The indicator calculates VIDYA across five customizable timeframes, allowing traders to analyze trends from multiple perspectives. The resulting trends are displayed as a heat map below the chart, where each timeframe is represented by a gradient color. The color intensity reflects the distance of the moving average (VIDYA) from the price, helping traders to identify trends on different timeframes visually. Shorter timeframes in the heat map are particularly useful for detecting faster market changes, while longer timeframes help to smooth out market noise and highlight the general trend.
Trend Direction:
Heat Map Reading:
◉ Dashboard for Multi-Timeframe Trend Directions:
The built-in dashboard displays the trend direction for each of the five timeframes, showing whether the trend is up or down. This quick overview provides traders with valuable insights into the current market conditions across multiple timeframes, helping them to assess whether the market is aligned or if there are conflicting trends. This allows for more informed decisions, especially during volatile periods.
◉ Color-Coded Candles Based on Multi-Timeframe Averages:
Candles are dynamically colored based on the average of the VIDYA across all five timeframes. When the price is in an uptrend, the candles are colored blue, while in a downtrend, they are colored red. If the VIDYA averages suggest a possible trend shift, the candles are displayed in orange to highlight a potential change in momentum. This color coding simplifies the process of identifying the dominant trend and spotting potential reversals.

◉ UP and DOWN Signals for Trend Direction Changes:
The indicator provides clear UP and DOWN signals to mark trend direction changes. When the average VIDYA crosses above a certain threshold, an UP signal is plotted, indicating a shift to an uptrend. Conversely, when it crosses below, a DOWN signal is shown, highlighting a transition to a downtrend. These signals help traders to quickly identify shifts in market direction and respond accordingly.
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
VIDYA Length and Momentum Settings:
Adjust the length of the VIDYA moving average and the period for calculating volume momentum. These settings allow you to fine-tune how sensitive the indicator is to market changes, helping to match it with your preferred trading style.
Timeframe Selection:
Select five different timeframes to analyze trends simultaneously. This gives you the flexibility to focus on short-term trends, long-term trends, or a combination of both depending on your trading strategy.
Candle and Heat Map Color Customization:
Change the colors of the candles and heat map to fit your personal preferences. This customization allows you to align the visuals of the indicator with your overall chart setup, making it easier to analyze market conditions.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Heat Trend (VIDYA MA) - BigBeluga indicator provides a comprehensive, multi-timeframe view of market trends, using VIDYA moving averages that adapt to volume momentum or volatility. Its heat map visualization, combined with a dashboard of trend directions and color-coded candles, makes it an invaluable tool for traders looking to understand both short-term market fluctuations and longer-term trends. By showing the overall market direction across multiple timeframes, it helps traders avoid market noise and focus on the bigger picture while being alert to faster shifts in shorter timeframes.

Vegas Channel Strategy (Long Only)Vegas Channel Strategy with Leverage - Script Explanation
This script implements the Vegas Channel Strategy for swing trading with long-only positions using customizable short and long period moving averages. It includes buy and sell signals, a trend indication, and the ability to visualize background color to signify the market’s direction (bullish trends). Additionally, this version can be adjusted to incorporate leverage.
Key Features of the Script:
1. Moving Averages (MA):
• The strategy uses two short-period MAs (144 and 169), and two long-period MAs (576 and 676) to define the trend and identify entry/exit points.
• The short-period MAs help to track the more immediate market trends, while the long-period MAs are used for longer-term trend confirmation.
2. Trade Signals:
• Buy Signal: A buy signal is generated when the price crosses above the 144-period short MA, and the market is in a bullish trend as confirmed by the short MA being above the long MA.
• Sell Signal: A sell signal is triggered when the price crosses below the 169-period short MA, indicating that the market may be reversing.
• Signal Visualization: These signals are displayed on the chart with green arrows for buy and red arrows for sell.
3. Trend Indication:
• The script highlights the background color of the chart to indicate bullish trends. When the market is in a bullish trend, the background turns a light green color, which is adjustable for transparency and visibility.
• This helps traders visually identify the prevailing trend.
4. Leverage Adjustment (if needed):
• The script can be further adjusted to account for leverage by allowing position sizes to be magnified. Leverage enhances potential returns, but also increases risk.
• Traders can modify the position size, risk allocation, and trade settings to manage how leverage impacts the overall strategy.
5. Background Colors:
• The background color will turn light green during a bullish trend with high transparency (95), allowing for a gentle trend indication without overwhelming the chart’s visibility.
6. Customizable Parameters:
• The lengths of the moving averages (short MA and long MA) are fully adjustable via input fields, giving flexibility to tailor the strategy based on different market conditions or trading preferences.
Important Notes:
• Trend Reliance: The strategy works best in trending markets. In sideways or highly volatile markets, the signals might not be as reliable.
• Risk Management: Traders are encouraged to incorporate stop-loss and take-profit levels when using leverage. The script does not include automatic risk management features, so setting your own risk parameters is crucial.
• Leverage: Leverage increases both potential profit and risk. Be cautious when adjusting leverage, and ensure that position sizing is aligned with your overall risk tolerance and capital allocation.
Ding's Dynamic Crossover ZonesDing's Dynamic Crossover Zones uses the crossover of the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and Simple Moving Average (SMA) to highlight bullish and bearish market trends. A green zone appears when the EMA crosses above the SMA, indicating a bullish trend and potential buy or hold opportunities. A red zone appears when the EMA crosses below the SMA, signaling a bearish trend and potential sell or short opportunities. The zones extend dynamically to reflect the duration of each trend, helping traders decide how long to hold their positions. Customize the EMA and SMA lengths in the settings to tailor the script to your strategy and gain valuable insights into market trends.

CandelaCharts - Volume Imbalance (VI) 📝 Overview
Volume Imbalance occurs when there’s a noticeable gap between the bodies of two consecutive candlesticks, with no overlap between them. While the wicks of the candles might intersect, the candle bodies remain entirely separate. This phenomenon often signifies that the algorithm driving market activity did not evenly distribute prices between these two levels, leaving behind a small Fair Value Gap (FVG).
A Bullish Volume Imbalance forms when the body of a green candlestick gaps above the previous candle’s body, with no overlap, indicating strong upward momentum and insufficient sell-side liquidity.
A Bearish Volume Imbalance forms when the body of a red candlestick gaps below the previous candle’s body, with no overlap, signaling intense downward pressure and a lack of buy-side liquidity.
This indicator can automatically identify volume imbalances by scanning candlestick patterns and detecting gaps between consecutive candle bodies. These volume imbalances act as price magnets, often attracting the market back to fill the gap before resuming its original direction. Recognizing and leveraging these gaps can be a powerful tool in technical analysis for predicting price movements.

Did it move?That is the eternal question in trading.: Is the price moving? This indicators aims to answer that question. It is based on concepts from 2 Bars from "The Strat". This indicator measures the distance the current price is above the previous high or below the previous low and on two timeframes. The assumption is that the price is moving as long as the price is above or below the previous bar.
The distance the price moved is normalized by the standard deviation. This serves the trader in two ways: 1) you can quickly determine if a price movement is significant (score > 1), and 2) you can plan exits when the score falls below 1 (e.g., movement become insignificant). Movement upwards are colored green and down movements are red. When the price is also above the higher timeframe high (below the HTF low), the color are more intense. When the price is not moving, the background is highlighted.
Finally, there are two alert setting. One is for then the price stops moving (movement score falls below a threshold. The other is a exit/reversal warning. For example if there is a strong move in the opposite it will trigger that alert.
Session Highs and Lows IndicatorThis indicator marks the high and low levels for key trading sessions, allowing traders to identify significant price zones across different markets. The default session times are defined in UTC and will automatically adjust to your local timezone:
- **London Session (07:00-09:00 UTC)**: Tracks intraday liquidity zones for potential highs/lows.
- **New York Session (12:00-14:00 UTC)**: Highlights volatility during market overlaps with Europe.
- **Asia Session (23:00-01:00 UTC)**: Confirms trend continuation and retracement opportunities.
- **New York Close Session (19:00-21:00 UTC)**: Focuses on reversals and breakout tests during global transitions.
The script dynamically updates session highs and lows with clear labels and dashed horizontal lines for better visualization. **Time ranges can be adjusted to suit your trading preferences.** This makes the indicator flexible and effective for liquidity hunting, trend trading, and breakout strategies.
Top-Down Trend and Key Levels with Swing Points//by antaryaami0
Overview
The “Top-Down Trend and Key Levels with Swing Points” indicator is a comprehensive tool designed to enhance your technical analysis by integrating multiple trading concepts into a single, easy-to-use script. It combines higher timeframe trend analysis, key price levels, swing point detection, and ranging market identification to provide a holistic view of market conditions. This indicator is particularly useful for traders who employ multi-timeframe analysis, support and resistance levels, and price action strategies.
Key Features
1. Higher Timeframe Trend Background Shading:

• Customization: Option to show or hide these levels and customize their colors.
3. First 5-Minute Marker (F5H/F5L):
• Purpose: Marks the high or low of the first 5 minutes after the market opens, which is significant for intraday momentum.
• How it Works:
• If the first 5-minute high is above the Pre-Market High (PMH), an “F5H” label is placed at the first 5-minute high.
• If the first 5-minute high is below the PMH, an “F5L” label is placed at the first 5-minute low.
• Visualization: Labels are placed at the 9:35 AM candle (closing of the first 5 minutes), colored in purple by default.
• Customization: Option to show or hide the marker and adjust the marker color.
4. Swing Points Detection:
• Purpose: Identifies significant pivot points in price action to help recognize trends and reversals.

• Visualization: Plots small markers (circles) with labels (HH, LH, HL, LL) at the corresponding swing points.
• Customization: Adjust the number of left and right bars for pivot detection and the size of the markers.
5. Ranging Market Detection:
• Purpose: Identifies periods when the market is consolidating (moving sideways) within a defined price range.
• How it Works: Calculates the highest high and lowest low over a specified period and determines if the price range is within a set percentage threshold.
• Visualization: Draws a gray box around the price action during the ranging period and labels the high and low prices at the end of the range.
• Customization: Adjust the range detection period and threshold, as well as the box color.
6. Trend Coloring on Chart:
• Purpose: Provides a visual cue for the short-term trend based on a moving average.

• Use in conjunction with volume indicators, oscillators, or other technical tools for additional confirmation.
• Backtesting:
• Apply the indicator to historical data to observe how it performs and refine your settings accordingly.
• Stay Updated on Market Conditions:
• Be aware of news events or economic releases that may impact market behavior and the effectiveness of technical levels.

Understanding the Indicator’s Logic
1. Higher Timeframe Trend Analysis:
• The indicator retrieves the closing prices of a higher timeframe using the request.security() function.
• It compares the current higher timeframe close with the previous one to determine the trend direction.
2. Key Level Calculation:
• Previous Day High/Low: Calculated by tracking the highest and lowest prices of the previous trading day.
• Pre-Market High/Low: Calculated by monitoring price action during the pre-market session.
3. First 5-Minute Marker Logic:
• At 9:35 AM (end of the first 5 minutes after market open), the indicator evaluates whether the first 5-minute high is above or below the PMH.
• It then places the appropriate label (F5H or F5L) on the chart.
4. Swing Points Detection:
• The script uses ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() functions to detect pivot points.
• It then determines the type of swing point based on comparisons with previous swings.
5. Ranging Market Detection:
• The indicator looks back over a specified number of bars to find the highest high and lowest low.
• It calculates the percentage difference between these two points.
• If the difference is below the set threshold, the market is considered to be ranging, and a box is drawn around the price action.
Limitations and Considerations
• Indicator Limitations:
• Maximum Boxes and Labels: Due to Pine Script limitations, there is a maximum number of boxes and labels that can be displayed simultaneously.
• Performance Impact: Adding multiple visual elements (boxes, labels, markers) can affect the performance of the script on lower-end devices or with large amounts of data.
• Market Conditions:
• False Signals: Like any technical tool, the indicator may produce false signals, especially during volatile or erratic market conditions.
• Not a Standalone Solution: This indicator should be used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy, including risk management and other forms of analysis.
Conclusion
The “Top-Down Trend and Key Levels with Swing Points” indicator is a versatile tool that integrates essential aspects of technical analysis into one script. By providing insights into higher timeframe trends, highlighting key price levels, detecting swing points, and identifying ranging markets, it equips traders with valuable information to make more informed trading decisions. Whether you are a day trader looking for intraday opportunities or a swing trader aiming to align with the broader trend, this indicator can enhance your chart analysis and trading strategy.
Disclaimer

ADM Indicator [CHE] Comprehensive Description of the Three Market Phases for TradingView
Introduction
Financial markets often exhibit patterns that reflect the collective behavior of participants. Recognizing these patterns can provide traders with valuable insights into potential future price movements. The ADM Indicator is designed to help traders identify and capitalize on these patterns by detecting three primary market phases:
1. Accumulation Phase
2. Manipulation Phase
3. Distribution Phase
This indicator places labels on the chart to signify these phases, aiding traders in making informed decisions. Below is an in-depth explanation of each phase, including how the ADM Indicator detects them.
1. Accumulation Phase
Definition
The Accumulation Phase is a period where informed investors or institutions discreetly purchase assets before a potential price increase. During this phase, the price typically moves within a confined range between established highs and lows.
Characteristics
- Price Range Bound: The asset's price stays within the previous high and low after a timeframe change.
- Low Volatility: Minimal price movement indicates a balance between buyers and sellers.
- Steady Volume: Trading volume may remain relatively constant or show slight increases.
- Market Sentiment: General market interest is low, as the accumulation is not yet apparent to the broader market.
Detection with ADM Indicator
- Criteria: An accumulation is detected when the price remains within the previous high and low after a timeframe change.
- Indicator Action: At the end of the period, if accumulation has occurred, the indicator places a label "Accumulation" on the chart.
- Visual Cues: A yellow semi-transparent background highlights the accumulation phase, enhancing visual recognition.
Implications for Traders
- Entry Opportunity: Consider preparing for potential long positions before a possible upward move.
- Risk Management: Use tight stop-loss orders below the support level due to the defined trading range.
2. Manipulation Phase
Definition
The Manipulation Phase, also known as the Shakeout Phase, occurs when dominant market players intentionally move the price to trigger stop-loss orders and create panic among less-informed traders. This action generates liquidity and better entry prices for large positions.
Characteristics
- False Breakouts: The price moves above the previous high or below the previous low but quickly reverses.
- Increased Volatility: Sharp price movements occur without fundamental reasons.
- Stop-Loss Hunting: The price targets common stop-loss areas, triggering them before reversing.
- Emotional Trading: Retail traders may react impulsively, leading to poor trading decisions.
Detection with ADM Indicator
- Manipulation Up:
- Criteria: Detected when the price rises above the previous high and then falls back below it.
- Indicator Action: Places a label "Manipulation Up" on the chart at the point of detection.
- Manipulation Down:
- Criteria: Detected when the price falls below the previous low and then rises back above it.
- Indicator Action: Places a label "Manipulation Down" on the chart at the point of detection.
- Visual Cues:
- Manipulation Up: Blue background highlights the phase.
- Manipulation Down: Orange background highlights the phase.
Implications for Traders
- Caution Advised: Be wary of false signals and avoid overreacting to sudden price changes.
- Preparation for Next Phase: Use this phase to anticipate potential distribution and adjust strategies accordingly.
3. Distribution Phase
Definition
The Distribution Phase occurs when the institutions or informed investors who accumulated positions start selling to the general market at higher prices. This phase often follows a Manipulation Phase and may signal an impending trend reversal.
Characteristics
- Price Reversal: The price moves in the opposite direction of the prior manipulation.
- High Trading Volume: Increased selling activity as large players offload positions.
- Trend Weakening: The previous trend loses momentum, indicating a potential shift.
- Market Sentiment Shift: Optimism fades, and uncertainty or pessimism may emerge.
Detection with ADM Indicator
- Distribution Up:
- Criteria: Detected after a verified Manipulation Up when the price subsequently falls below the previous low.
- Indicator Action: Places a label "Distribution Up" on the chart.
- Distribution Down:
- Criteria: Detected after a verified Manipulation Down when the price subsequently rises above the previous high.
- Indicator Action: Places a label "Distribution Down" on the chart.
- Visual Cues:
- Distribution Up: Purple background highlights the phase.
- Distribution Down: Maroon background highlights the phase.
Implications for Traders
- Exit Signals: Consider closing long positions if in a Distribution Up phase.
- Short Selling Opportunities: Potential to enter short positions anticipating a downtrend.

Harmonic Pattern Detector (75 patterns)Harmonic Pattern Detector offers a record amount of "Harmonic Patterns" in one script, with 75 different patterns detected, together with up to 99 different swing lengths.
🔶 USAGE
Harmonic Patterns are detected from several different ZigZag lines, derived from Swings with different lengths (shorter - longer term)
Depending on the settings ' Minimum/Maximum Swing Length ', the user will see more or less patterns from shorter and/or longer-term swing points.
🔹 Fibonacci Ratio
Certain patterns have only one ratio for a specific retrace/extension instead of one upper and one lower limit. In this case, we add a ' Tolerance ', which adds a percentage tolerance below/above the ratio, creating two limits.
A higher number may show more patterns but may become less valid.
Hoovering over points B, C, and D will show a tooltip with the concerning limits; adjusted limits will be seen if applicable.
Tooltips in settings will also show which patterns the Fibonacci Ratio applies to.
🔹 Triangle Area Ratio
Using Heron's formula , the triangle area is calculated after the X-Y axis is normalized.
Users can filter patterns based on the ratio of the smallest triangle to the largest triangle.
A lower Triangle Area Ratio number leads to more symmetrical patterns but may appear less frequently.
🔶 DETAILS
Harmonic patterns are based on geometric patterns, where the retracement/extension of a swing point must be located between specific Fibonacci ratios of the previous swing/leg. Different Harmonic Patterns require unique ratios to become valid patterns.
In the above example there is a valid 'Max Butterfly' pattern where:
Point B is located between 0.618 - 0.886 retracement level of the X-A leg
Point C is located between 0.382 - 0.886 retracement level of the A-B leg
Point D is located between 1.272 - 2.618 extension level of the B-C leg
Point D is located between 1.272 - 1.618 extension level of the X-A leg
Harmonic Pattern Detector uses ZigZag lines, where swing highs and swing lows alternate. Each ZigZag line is checked for valid Harmonic Patterns . When multiple types of Harmonic Patterns are valid for the same sequence, the pattern will be named after the first one found.
Different swing lengths form different ZigZag lines.
By evaluating different ZigZag lines (up to 99!), shorter—and longer-term patterns can be drawn on the same chart.
🔹 Blocks
The patterns are organized into blocks that can be toggled on or off with a single click.
When a block is enabled, the user can still select which specific patterns within that block are enabled or disabled.
🔹 Visuals
Besides color settings, labels can show pattern names or arrows at point D of the pattern.
Note this will happen 1 bar after validation because one extra bar is needed for confirmation.
An option is included to show only arrows without the patterns.
🔹 Updated Patterns
When a Swing Low is followed by a lower low or a Swing High followed by a higher high , triggering a pattern identical to a previous one except with a different point D, the pattern will be updated. The previous C-D line will be visible as a dashed line to highlight the event. Only the last dashed line is shown when this happens more than once.
🔹 Optimization
The script only verifies the last leg in the initial phase, significantly reducing the time spent on pattern validation. If this leg doesn't align with a potential Harmonic Pattern , the pattern is immediately disregarded. In the subsequent phase, the remaining patterns are quickly scrutinized to ensure the next leg is valid. This efficient process continues, with only valid patterns progressing to the next phase until all sequences have been thoroughly examined.
This process can check up to 99 ZigZag lines for 75 different Harmonic Patterns , showcasing its high capacity and versatility.
🔹 Ratios
The following table shows the different ratios used for each Harmonic Pattern .
' min ' and ' max ' are used when only one limit is provided instead of 2. This limit is given a percentage tolerance above and below, customizable by the setting ' Tolerance - Fibonacci Ratio '.
For example a ratio of 0.618 with a tolerance of 1% would result in:
an upper limit of 0.624
a lower limit of 0.612

Supertrend and MACD strategyThe Supertrend and MACD Strategy is a comprehensive trading approach designed to capitalize on market trends by using a combination of the Supertrend indicator, the Exponential Moving Average (EMA), and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). This strategy aims to identify optimal entry and exit points for both long and short trades, while incorporating strict risk management rules.
Indicators Used:
Supertrend: This indicator is used to identify the overall trend direction. It provides clear signals for trend reversals, helping traders to enter trades in the direction of the prevailing trend.
200-period EMA: This long-term moving average is used to determine the primary trend direction. The strategy only takes long trades when the price is above the 200 EMA and short trades when the price is below it.
MACD: The MACD is used to gauge the momentum and confirm the signals provided by the Supertrend and EMA. It consists of the MACD line, the signal line, and the histogram.
Entry Conditions:
Long Entry:
The Supertrend indicator shows an uptrend (direction > 0).
The MACD line is above the signal line (macd > signal).
The price is above the 200-period EMA (close > ema200).
Short Entry:
The Supertrend indicator shows a downtrend (direction < 0).
The MACD line is below the signal line (macd < signal).
The price is below the 200-period EMA (close < ema200).
Exit Conditions:
Long Exit:
Exit the long position when the MACD line crosses below the signal line (ta.crossunder(macd, signal)).
Set a stop loss (SL) below the lowest low of the last 10 periods (lowestLow - 1).
Short Exit:
Exit the short position when the MACD line crosses above the signal line (ta.crossover(macd, signal)).
Set a stop loss (SL) above the highest high of the last 10 periods (highestHigh + 1).
Risk Management:
The strategy ensures that no new positions are opened if there is already an open trade, preventing overexposure in the market.
Alerts:
Alerts are set to notify traders when the MACD crosses the signal line, providing timely updates for potential exit points.
Weekly Bullish Pattern DetectorThis script is a TradingView Pine Script designed to detect a specific bullish candlestick pattern on the weekly chart. Below is a detailed breakdown of its components:
1. Purpose
The script identifies a four-candle bullish pattern where:
The first candle is a long green (bullish) candlestick.
The second and third candles are small-bodied candles, signifying consolidation or indecision.
The fourth candle is another long green (bullish) candlestick.
When this pattern is detected, the script:
Marks the chart with a visual label.
Optionally triggers an alert to notify the trader.
2. Key Features
Overlay on Chart:
indicator("Weekly Bullish Pattern Detector", overlay=true) ensures the indicator draws directly on the price chart.
Customizable Inputs:
length (Body Size Threshold):
Defines the minimum percentage of the total range that qualifies as a "long" candle body (default: 14%).
smallCandleThreshold (Small Candle Body Threshold):
Defines the maximum percentage of the total range that qualifies as a "small" candle body (default: 10%).
Candlestick Property Calculations:
bodySize: Measures the absolute size of the candle body (close - open).
totalRange: Measures the total high-to-low range of the candle.
bodyPercentage: Calculates the proportion of the body size relative to the total range ((bodySize / totalRange) * 100).
isGreen and isRed: Identify bullish (green) or bearish (red) candles based on their open and close prices.
Pattern Conditions:
longGreenCandle:
Checks if the candle is bullish (isGreen) and its body percentage exceeds the defined length threshold.
smallCandle:
Identifies small-bodied candles where the body percentage is below the smallCandleThreshold.
consolidation:
Confirms the second and third candles are both small-bodied (smallCandle and smallCandle ).
Bullish Pattern Detection:
bullishPattern:
Detects the full four-candle sequence:
The first candle (longGreenCandle ) is a long green candle.
The second and third candles (consolidation) are small-bodied.
The fourth candle (longGreenCandle) is another long green candle.
Visualization:
plotshape(bullishPattern):
Draws a green label ("Pattern") below the price chart whenever the pattern is detected.
Alert Notification:
alertcondition(bullishPattern):
Sends an alert with the message "Bullish Pattern Detected on Weekly Chart" whenever the pattern is found.
3. How It Works
Evaluates Candle Properties:
For each weekly candle, the script calculates its size, range, and body percentage.
Identifies Each Component of the Pattern:
Checks for a long green candle (first and fourth).
Verifies the presence of two small-bodied candles (second and third).
Detects and Marks the Pattern:
Confirms the sequence and marks the chart with a label if the pattern is complete.
Sends Alerts:
Notifies the trader when the pattern is detected.
4. Use Cases
This script is ideal for:
Swing Traders:
Spotting weekly patterns that indicate potential bullish continuations.
Breakout Traders:
Identifying consolidation zones followed by upward momentum.
Pattern Recognition:
Automatically detecting a commonly used bullish formation.
5. Key Considerations
Timeframe: Works best on weekly charts.
Customization: The thresholds for "long" and "small" candles can be adjusted to suit different markets or volatility levels.
Limitations:
It doesn't confirm the pattern's success; further analysis (e.g., volume, support/resistance levels) may be required for validation
CandelaCharts - Opening Gap (OG) 📝 Overview
The ICT (Inner Circle Trader) Opening Gap represents the price difference between the previous trading session's closing price and the current session's opening price. This gap serves as a key indicator of market sentiment and can offer valuable clues about the market's potential direction throughout the trading day.
A bullish Opening Gap forms when the market opens higher than the previous session's close, signaling strong buying interest or positive sentiment heading into the new session
A bearish Opening Gap occurs when the market opens lower than the previous session's close, reflecting heightened selling pressure or negative sentiment among market participants
The Opening Gap is significant as it often establishes the market's tone for the trading session. Accurately interpreting this gap enables traders to make informed decisions about when to enter or exit positions. Serving as a gauge of market strength or weakness, the gap provides a clear signal of whether the market is likely to trend upward or downward during the day.

Daily Moving Averages on Intraday ChartsThis moving average script displays the chosen 5 daily moving averages on intraday (minute) charts. It automatically adjusts the intervals to show the proper moving averages.
In a day there are 375 trading minutes from 9:15 AM to 3:30PM in Indian market. In 5 days there are 1875 minutes. For other markets adjust this data accordingly.
If 5DMA is chosen on a five minute chart the moving average will use 375 interval values (1875/5 = 375) of 5minute chart to calculate moving average. Same 5DMA on 25minute chart will use 75 interval values (1875/25 = 75).
On a 1minute chart the 5DMA plot will use 1875 interval values to arrive at the moving average.
Since tradingview only allows 5000 intervals to lookback, if a particular daily moving average on intraday chart needs more than 5000 candle data it won't be shown. E.g 200DMA on 5minute chart needs 15000 candles data to plot a correct 200DMA line. Anything less than that would give incorrect moving average and hence it won't be shown on the chart.
MA crossover for the first two MAs is provided. If you want to use that option, make sure you give the moving averages in the correct order.
You can enhance this script and use it in any way you please as long as you make it opensource on TradingView. Feedback and improvement suggestions are welcome.
Special thanks to @JohnMuchow for his moving averages script for all timeframes.
