ICT Killzones & MacrosICT Killzones & Macros (v1.1.5) — configurable ICT session windows + refined “macro” windows with live High/Low levels, optional extensions, next-window previews, and lightweight opening-price lines. Built to be clock-robust, timezone-aware, and performant on intraday charts.
Tip: All times are interpreted in your chosen IANA timezone (default: America/New_York) and auto-handle DST. You can rename, recolor, enable/disable, and retime every window.
What it plots
- Killzones (5) : Asia (19:00–02:00), London (02:00–05:00), NY AM (07:00–09:30), London Close (10:00–12:00), NY PM (13:30–16:00) — full-height boxes with optional header.
- Macros (8) (defaults tailored for common ICT “refined” windows): Asia-1 (18:00–21:00), Asia-2 (21:00–00:00), London-1 (01:00–04:00), AM-1 (09:45–10:15), AM-2 (10:45–11:15), Lunch (12:00–13:00), PM-1 (13:30–14:30), Power Hour (15:10–16:00).
- Live High/Low lines for the current Macro/Killzone window.
- Optional HL extension to the right until price crosses or the trading day rolls (style selectable).
- “Next” previews : earliest upcoming Macro and Killzone header; optional next-window background band.
- Opening Prices (3 lightweight time lines) : defaults 00:00, 08:30, 09:30 with right-edge labels, scoped to a session you choose (auto-cleans at session end).
- Key inputs & styling
- General : Timezone (IANA), “Sessions to show” (per window) to keep only the last N completed windows.
- Header : height (ticks), gap (ticks), fill opacity, border width/style, text size/color, toggle “Next Macro/Killzone” headers.
- Boxes : global fill opacity, global border width/style (used by both Macros & Killzones).
- High/Low : show HL, HL line style, extend on/off + extension style, optional extension labels.
- Opening Prices : enable Time 1/2/3, set HH:MM for each, session window, per-line colors, style (dotted/dashed/solid), width.
- Per-window controls : each Macro/Killzone has Enable, Session (HHMM-HHMM), Label, Fill color.
How to use (quick start)
- Set Timezone to your preference (default America/New_York).
- Toggle on the Macros and Killzones you trade. Adjust session times if needed.
- (Optional) Turn on Extend High/Low to project levels until crossed/day-roll.
- (Optional) Enable Next… headers to see the next upcoming window at a glance.
- (Optional) Configure Opening Prices (00:00 / 08:30 / 09:30 by default) and the session over which they appear.
Behavior & notes
- Time windows are computed by clock, not by guessing bar timestamps, making them robust across brokers and timeframes.
- With HL extension on, the current window’s levels extend until crossed or the end of the trading day (in your timezone). With it off, completed windows keep static HL markers (limited by “Sessions to show”).
- “Sessions to show” applies per Macro/Killzone to automatically prune older windows and keep charts snappy.
- Opening-price lines exist only within the chosen “Opening Prices Session” and are removed when it ends (keeps charts clean).
Defaults (color cues)
Killzones: Asia (blue), London (purple), NY AM (green), London Close (yellow), NY PM (orange).
Macros: neutral greys with Lunch and PM accents out of the box (all customizable).
Performance tips
- Reduce “Sessions to show” if you scroll far back in history.
- Disable “Next…” previews and/or extension labels on very slow machines.
- Narrow the “Opening Prices Session” window to exactly when you need those lines.
Changelog highlights
- v1.1.5 : Internal refinements and stability.
- v1.1.3 : Live High/Low lines for current windows + optional extension.
- v1.1.2 : Added “next Killzone” preview (to match “next Macro”).

ATR Adaptive (auto timeframe)This indicator automatically adjusts the Average True Range (ATR) period based on the current chart timeframe, helping traders define dynamic Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) levels that adapt to market volatility.
The ATR measures the average range of price movement over a defined number of bars. By using adaptive periods, the indicator ensures that volatility is interpreted consistently across different timeframes — from 1-minute charts to daily or weekly charts.
It plots two main levels on the chart:
🔴 Low – ATR × Multiplier → Suggested Stop Loss (below the candle’s low)
🟢 High + ATR × Multiplier → Suggested Take Profit or trailing level (above the candle’s high)
Optional additional lines show ATR-based TP levels calculated from the current close.
💡 How to use
Select your desired ATR multiplier (e.g., 1.3× for SL, 1.0× for TP).
The script automatically detects the chart timeframe and uses an appropriate ATR length (e.g., ATR(30) on M5, ATR(21) on H1, ATR(14) on Daily).
Use the plotted levels to:
Set Stop Loss just below the red ATR band (for long trades).
Set Take Profit near or slightly below the green ATR band (for short trades, reverse logic).
⚙️ Why it helps
Maintains consistent volatility-based risk across multiple timeframes.
Avoids arbitrary fixed SL/TP values.
Makes the trading strategy more responsive in high-volatility markets and more conservative when volatility contracts.
Particularly useful for intraday and swing trading, where volatility varies significantly between sessions.
Directional Indicator Crossovers v1[JopAlgo]Directional Indicator Crossovers v1 — the classic DMI, made clearer and easier to act on
We'd like to introduce you to a more relaxed, streamlined version of DI. While it may not seem like it at first glance, we've taken the D+/D- method as a starting point and developed our own version of this indicator: two lines, a smooth green/red field indicating who's in control, and clear crossover alerts for a flip. We deliberately chose the step line representation because it closely matches the candlestick patterns on the chart. Designed to help you react faster—without clutter.
What you’ll see
+DI (green) and −DI (red) using classic Wilder smoothing.
A soft control zone between the lines: green when +DI dominates, red when −DI dominates.
Crossover alerts (no labels, no background flooding)—just the turning points.
Why this helps
Instant bias: the shaded field tells you who’s in control without reading values.
Cleaner execution: minimal visuals keep focus on the handoff (+DI↔−DI) and your price levels.
Actionable by design: built-in alerts fire right at the flip to route into your workflow.
How to read it
Bias: Green zone → buyers lead. Red zone → sellers lead.
Trigger: Consider entries on the DI crossover that aligns with your higher-timeframe context (trend, S/R, OB).
Patience in chop: If flips are frequent in tight ranges, wait for sustained zone dominance or confirm on a higher TF.
Exit/flip: Opposite crossover or a clear loss of dominance.
Settings that matter
DI Length (default 14): Higher = calmer, fewer flips. Lower = faster, more signals.
Visuals: Keep the control zone on for quick reads; hide crossover marks if you prefer pure lines.
Alerts: Enable bullish and bearish DI cross alerts; connect to notifications or webhooks as needed.
Starter presets
Intraday (15m–1H): DI Length 12–14 for quicker handoffs.
Swing (4H–1D): DI Length 14–20 for cleaner signals.
Choppy assets: Nudge length higher to dampen noise.
Where it shines (and limits)
Best: Liquid markets (crypto majors, indices, large caps) where handoffs matter.
Works elsewhere: Still useful on slower pairs; extend length for stability.
Limit: Frequent flips in low-range sessions—pair with HTF bias or structure.
Alerts included
Bullish DI Crossover: +DI crosses above −DI.
Bearish DI Crossover: −DI crosses above +DI.

Daily ATR Zones
Dynamic Daily ATR Projection Zones
### **Description:**
This indicator projects potential price levels for the current trading day based on the Average True Range (ATR) of the previous day. It is designed to help intraday traders visualize daily volatility and identify key potential support, resistance, or target levels that are fixed for the entire session and do not repaint.
**How It Works**
The logic is based on two key components: a stable base price and a reliable volatility measure.
* **Base Price:** The indicator uses the **Open price of the current day** as the central anchor point for all projections.
* **Volatility Measure:** The calculation uses the final, completed **ATR value from the previous day**. This ensures that the projected zones are constant throughout the current trading day and are not subject to repainting.
The projection levels are then calculated using the formula:
`Current Day's Open + (Previous Day's ATR * Multiplier)`
**Features**
This script is fully customizable to fit your trading style:
* **Customizable ATR Multipliers:** Easily define your own price zones by entering a comma-separated list of multipliers (e.g., `0.5, 1.0, 1.5, -0.5, -1.0`).
* **Dynamic & Movable Labels:** The price labels are designed to stay on the right edge of the chart, ensuring they never obscure the current price action.
* **Adjustable Label Position:** Use the "Label Horizontal Offset" setting to control how far the labels are positioned from the current bar, keeping your chart clean.
* **Adjustable Label Size:** Choose from five different sizes (Tiny, Small, Normal, Large, Huge) to ensure the labels are perfectly readable on any device.
* **Toggle Labels:** You can turn all labels on or off with a single checkbox.
* **Full Color Customization:** Set unique colors for the positive (upper), negative (lower), and neutral projection zones.
**How to Use**
This tool can be integrated into various intraday trading strategies:
* **Intraday Targets:** The projected levels can serve as potential take-profit or stop-loss targets for scalpers and day traders.
* **Support & Resistance:** Watch for price reactions, such as bounces or rejections, at these ATR levels, as they often act as dynamic support and resistance zones.
* **Volatility Gauge:** The zones provide a quick visual reference for how far the price has moved relative to its recent average daily range. For example, if the price reaches the `1.0 ATR` level, it has completed an "average" day's move.
HTF Cross Breakout [CHE] HTF Cross Breakout — Detects higher timeframe close crossovers for breakout signals, anchors VWAP for trend validation, and flags continuations or traps with visual extensions for delta percent and stop levels.
Summary
This indicator spots moments when the current chart's close price crosses a higher timeframe close, marking potential breakouts only when the current bar shows directional strength. It anchors a volume-weighted average price line from the breakout point to track trend health, updating labels to show if the move continues or reverses into a trap. Extensions add a dotted line linking the breakout level to the current close with percent change display, plus a stop-loss marker at the VWAP end. Signals gain robustness from higher timeframe confirmation and anti-repainting options, reducing noise in live bars compared to simple crossover tools.
Motivation: Why this design?
Traders often face false breakouts from intrabar wiggles on lower timeframes, especially without higher timeframe alignment, leading to whipsaws in volatile sessions. This design uses higher timeframe close as a stable reference for crossover detection, combined with anchored volume weighting to gauge sustained momentum. It addresses these by enforcing bar confirmation and directional filters, providing clearer entry validation and risk points without overcomplicating the chart.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Reference baseline
Standard crossover indicators like moving average crosses operate solely on the chart timeframe, ignoring higher timeframe context and lacking volume anchoring.
Architecture differences
- Higher timeframe data pulls via security calls with optional repainting control for stability.
- Anchored VWAP resets at each signal, accumulating from the breakout bar only.
- Label dynamics update in real-time for continuation checks, with extensions for visual delta and stop computation.
- Event-driven line finalization prunes old elements after a set bar extension.
Practical effect
Charts show persistent lines and labels that extend live but finalize cleanly on new events, avoiding clutter. This matters for spotting trap reversals early via label color shifts, and extensions provide quick risk visuals without manual calculations, improving decision speed in trend trades.
How it works (technical)
The indicator first determines a higher timeframe based on user selection, pulling its close price securely. It checks for crossovers or crossunders of the current close against this higher close, but only triggers on confirmed bars with matching directional opens and closes. On a valid event, a horizontal line and label mark the higher close level, while a dashed VWAP line starts accumulating typical price times volume from that bar onward. During the active phase, the breakout line extends to the current bar, the label repositions and updates text based on whether the current close holds above or below the level for bulls or bears. A background tint warns if the close deviates adversely from the current VWAP. Extensions draw a vertical dotted line at the last bar between the breakout level and close, placing a midpoint label with percent difference; separately, a label at the VWAP end shows a computed stop price. Persistent variables track the active state and accumulators, resetting on new events after briefly extending old elements. Repaint risk from security calls is mitigated by confirmed bar gating or user opt-in.
Parameter Guide
Plateau Length (reserved for future, currently unused): Sets a length for potential plateau detection in extensions; default 3, minimum 1. Higher values would increase stability but are not active yet—leave at default to avoid tuning.
Line Width: Controls thickness of breakout, VWAP, and extension lines; default 2, range 1 to 5. Thicker lines improve visibility on busy charts but may obscure price action—use 1 for clean views, 3 or more for emphasis.
+Bars after next HTF event (finalize old, then delete): Extends old lines and labels by this many bars before deletion on new signals; default 20, minimum 0. Shorter extensions keep charts tidy but risk cutting visuals prematurely; longer aids review but builds clutter over time.
Evaluate label only on HTF close (prevents gray traps intrabar): When true, label updates wait for higher timeframe confirmation; default true. Enabling reduces intrabar flips for stabler signals, though it may delay feedback—disable for faster live trading at repaint cost.
Allow Repainting: Permits real-time security data without confirmation offset; default false. False ensures historical accuracy but lags live bars; true speeds updates but can repaint on HTF closes.
Timeframe Type: Chooses HTF method—Auto Timeframe (dynamic steps up), Multiplier (chart multiple), or Manual (fixed string); default Auto Timeframe. Auto adapts to chart scale for convenience; Multiplier suits custom scaling like 5 times current; Manual for precise like 1D on any chart.
Multiplier for Alternate Resolution: Scales chart timeframe when Multiplier type selected; default 5, minimum 1. Values near 1 mimic current resolution for subtle shifts; higher like 10 jumps to broader context, increasing signal rarity.
Manual Resolution: Direct timeframe string like 60 for 1H when Manual type; default 60. Match to trading horizon—shorter for swing, longer for positional—to balance frequency and reliability.
Show Extension 1: Toggles dotted line and delta percent label between breakout level and current close; default true. Disable to simplify for basic use, enable for precise momentum tracking.
Dotted Line Width: Thickness for Extension 1 line; default 2, range 1 to 5. Align with main Line Width for consistency.
Text Size: Size for delta percent label; options tiny, small, normal, large; default normal. Smaller reduces overlap on dense charts; larger aids glance reads.
Decimals for Δ%: Precision in percent change display; default 2, range 0 to 6. Fewer decimals speed reading; more suit low-volatility assets.
Positive Δ Color: Hue for upward percent changes; default lime. Choose contrasting for visibility.
Negative Δ Color: Hue for downward percent changes; default red. Pair with positive for quick polarity scan.
Dotted Line Color: Color for Extension 1 line; default gray. Neutral tones blend well; brighter for emphasis.
Background Transparency (0..100): Opacity for delta label background; default 90. Higher values fade for subtlety; lower solidifies for readability.
Show Extension 2: Toggles stop-loss label at VWAP end; default true. Turn off for entry focus only.
Stop Method: Percent from VWAP end or fixed ticks; options Percent, Ticks; default Percent. Percent scales with price levels; Ticks suits tick-based instruments.
Stop %: Distance as fraction of VWAP for Percent method; default 1.0, step 0.05, minimum 0.0. Tighter like 0.5 reduces risk but increases stops; wider like 2.0 allows breathing room.
Stop Ticks: Tick count offset for Ticks method; default 20, minimum 0. Adjust per asset volatility—fewer for tight control.
Price Decimals: Rounding for stop price text; default 4, range 0 to 10. Match syminfo.precision for clean display.
Text Size: Size for stop label; options tiny, small, normal, large; default normal. Scale to chart zoom.
Text Color: Foreground for stop text; default white. Ensure contrast with background.
Inherit VWAP Color (BG tint): Bases stop label background on VWAP hue; default true. True maintains theme; false allows custom black base.
BG Transparency (0..100): Opacity for stop label background; default 0. Zero for no tint; up to 100 for full fade.
Reading & Interpretation
Breakout lines appear green for bullish crosses or red for bearish, extending live until a new event finalizes them briefly then deletes. Labels start blank, updating to Bull Cont. or Bear Cont. in matching colors if holding the level, or gray Bull Trap/Bear Trap on reversal. VWAP dashes yellow for bulls, orange for bears, sloping with accumulated volume weight—deviations trigger faint red background warnings. Extension 1's dotted vertical shows at the last bar, with midpoint label green/red for positive/negative percent from breakout to close. Extension 2 places a left-aligned label at VWAP end with stop price and method note, tinted to VWAP for context.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
For trend following, enter long on green Bull Cont. labels above VWAP with higher highs confirmation, filtering via rising structure; short on red Bear Cont. below. Pair with volume surges or RSI above 50 for bulls to avoid traps. For exits, trail stops using the Extension 2 level, tightening on warnings or gray labels—aggressive on continuations, conservative post-trap. In multi-timeframe setups, use default Auto on 15m charts for 1H signals, scaling multiplier to 4 for daily context on hourly; test on forex/stocks where volume is reliable, avoiding low-liquidity assets.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Signals confirm on bar close with HTF gating when strict mode active, but live bars may update if repainting enabled—opt false for backtest fidelity, true for intraday speed. Security calls risk minor repaints on HTF closes, mitigated by confirmation offsets. Resources cap at 1000 bars back, 50 lines/labels total, with event prunes to stay under budgets—no loops, minimal arrays. Limits include VWAP lag in low-volume periods and dependency on accurate HTF data; gaps or holidays may skew anchors.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Defaults suit 5m-1H charts on liquid assets: Auto HTF, no repaint, 1% stops. For choppy markets with excess signals, enable strict eval and bump multiplier to 10 for rarer triggers. If sluggish in trends, shorten extend bars to 10 and allow repainting for quicker visuals. On high-vol like crypto, widen stop % to 2.0 and use Ticks method; for stables like indices, tighten to 0.5% and keep Percent.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This is a signal visualization layer for breakout confirmation and basic risk marking, best as a filter in discretionary setups. It isn’t a standalone system or predictive oracle—combine with price structure, news awareness, and sizing rules for real edges.

✅ Best Use Cases
Quick visual assessment of market conditions when you need instant feedback on whether an asset is in extreme territory across multiple analytical dimensions
Workspace organization for traders who monitor multiple indicators but want to reduce chart clutter and visual complexity
Metric comparison by switching between different indicators while maintaining consistent visual interpretation through the 0-100 normalization
Overbought/oversold identification using RSI, Stochastic, Williams %R, or MFI depending on whether you prefer price-only or volume-weighted analysis
Volume analysis through Volume %, Volume Trend, or MFI to confirm price movements with corresponding volume characteristics
Volatility monitoring using ATR Percentile or Volatility Rank to identify expansion/contraction cycles and adjust position sizing
Trend vs range identification by comparing Trend Strength (high values = trending) against Choppiness Index (high values = ranging)
Statistical over-extension detection using CCI or Price Distance to identify when price has deviated significantly from normal behavior
Multi-timeframe analysis by duplicating the gauge on different timeframe charts to compare metric readings across time horizons
Educational purposes for new traders learning to interpret technical indicators through consistent visual representation
⚠️ Limitations
The gauge displays only one metric at a time, requiring manual switching to compare different indicators rather than simultaneous multi-metric viewing
The 0-100 normalization, while providing consistency, may obscure the raw values and specific nuances of each underlying indicator
Table-based visualization cannot be exported or saved as an image separately from the full chart screenshot
Optimal parameter settings vary by asset type, timeframe, and market conditions, requiring user experimentation for best results
💡 What Makes This Unique
Unified Multi-Metric Interface: The only gauge-style indicator offering 13 distinct metrics through a single interface, eliminating the need for multiple oscillator panels
Non-Overlapping Analytics: Each metric provides genuinely unique insights—MFI combines volume with price, CCI measures statistical deviation, Volatility Rank uses extended lookback, Trend Strength quantifies directional movement, and Choppiness Index measures ranging behavior
Universal Normalization System: All metrics standardized to 0-100 scale using indicator-appropriate algorithms that preserve statistical meaning while enabling consistent visual interpretation
Professional Visual Design: Semi-circular gauge with 21 arc segments, precision needle positioning, color-coded zones, and clean table implementation that maintains clarity across all chart configurations
Extensive Customization: Independent parameter controls for each metric, five position options, three size presets, and full color customization for seamless workspace integration
🔬 How It Works
1. Metric Calculation Phase:
All 13 metrics are calculated simultaneously on every bar using their respective algorithms with user-defined parameters
Each metric applies its own specific calculation method—RSI uses average gains vs losses, Stochastic compares close to high-low range, MFI incorporates typical price and volume, CCI measures deviation from statistical mean, ATR calculates true range, directional indicators measure up/down movement, and statistical metrics analyze price relationships
2. Normalization Process:
Each calculated metric is converted to a standardized 0-100 scale using indicator-appropriate transformations
Some metrics are naturally 0-100 (RSI, Stochastic, MFI, Williams %R), while others require scaling—CCI transforms from ±200 range, Momentum centers around 50, Volume ratio caps at 2x for 100, ATR and Volatility Rank calculate percentile positions, and Price Distance scales by standard deviations
3. Gauge Rendering:
The selected metric’s normalized value determines the needle position across 21 arc segments spanning 0-100
Each arc segment receives its color based on position—segments 0-8 are green zone, segments 9-14 are yellow zone, segments 15-20 are red zone
The needle indicator (▼) appears in row 5 at the column corresponding to the current metric value, providing precise visual feedback
4. Table Construction:
The gauge uses TradingView’s table system with merged cells for title and value display, ensuring consistent positioning regardless of chart configuration
Rows are allocated as follows: Row 0 merged for title, Row 1 merged for large value display, Row 2 for spacing, Rows 3-4 for the semi-circular arc with curved shaping, Row 5 for needle indicator, Row 6 for scale markers, Row 7 for numerical labels at 0/25/50/75/100
All visual elements update on every bar when barstate.islast is true, ensuring real-time accuracy without performance impact
💡 Note:
This indicator is designed for visual analysis and market condition assessment, not as a standalone trading system. For best results, combine gauge readings with price action analysis, support and resistance levels, and broader market context. Parameter optimization is recommended based on your specific trading timeframe and asset class. The gauge works on all timeframes but may require different parameter settings for intraday versus daily/weekly analysis. Consider using multiple instances of the gauge set to different metrics for comprehensive market analysis without switching between settings.
Mayer Mutiple | QRMayer Multiple | QR — Publication Description
What it does
Mayer Multiple | QR is a cycle/valuation style oscillator that measures how far price sits above or below its longer-term average and normalizes that distance by current volatility. It helps you spot overheated extensions and deep discounts relative to trend, with adaptive bands that expand/contract as conditions change.
How it works (principle)
The script compares price to a long lookback moving average (default uses a 200-period average of ohlc4) and turns that gap into an oscillator.
It then computes a rolling standard deviation of that oscillator to build dynamic upper/lower bands (±1σ, ±2σ, ±3σ).
When the oscillator rises above the upper bands, the move is statistically stretched (potential distribution/risk). When it falls below the lower bands, it’s statistically depressed (potential accumulation/opportunity).
A small baseline band around zero (scaled from volatility) provides a quick trend-bias read without crowding the view.
Why this matters: Classic “Mayer Multiple” tools use a fixed threshold over a single moving average. This version is volatility-aware: its bands adapt to the market’s current dispersion, reducing false signals in quiet regimes and avoiding constant “overheat” flags in high-vol regimes.
What you see on the chart
White oscillator line: volatility-normalized deviation from the long-term average.
Adaptive bands:
Upper 1/2/3σ (shaded blue tones) = progressively more extended.
Lower 1/2/3σ (shaded green tones) = progressively more discounted.
Baseline ribbon: subtle band around zero for quick bias.
Background highlights: optional flashes when the oscillator exceeds the ±3σ extremes.
All visuals are generated by this script alone; no other indicator is required to understand usage.
How to use it
Context: Use on higher timeframes to gauge where price sits versus its long-term “fair value corridor.”
Signal reading:
Above +1σ/+2σ/+3σ: extension → consider de-risking, trailing stops, or waiting for mean reversion.
Below −1σ/−2σ/−3σ: discount → consider scaling in, watching for trend resumption cues.
Confluence: Treat it as a condition, not a trigger. Pair with structure (higher highs/lows), breadth, or momentum for entries/exits.
Regime awareness: As volatility rises, bands widen; prioritize trend context over single print extremes.
Inputs you can tune
Color mode: preset palettes for lines/fills/backgrounds.
Dynamic Threshold Length: lookback for the volatility (σ) calculation driving the adaptive bands.
Source: price input used for the long-term reference.
Band toggles: show/hide ±1σ / ±2σ / ±3σ envelopes to reduce clutter.
Originality & value
Adaptive, volatility-aware implementation of a Mayer-style concept: rather than one fixed threshold, it scales to current regime, keeping readings comparable across cycles.
Clear, clean presentation (oscillator + bands + optional background) designed for publication with a clean chart so the script’s output is immediately identifiable.
Offers actionable context (stretch/discount zones) while leaving trade execution to the user’s process.
Limitations & good practices
Best used for context and risk framing, not stand-alone entries.
Adaptive bands depend on the lookback you choose; very short windows can overfit, very long windows can lag.
Extremes can persist in strong trends—don’t fade momentum blindly.

India VIX Based Nifty/BankNifty Range Calculator (Auto Fetch)VIX-Based Expected Daily Range (Auto Volatility Forecast)
Created by: Harshiv Symposium
📖 Purpose
This indicator automatically fetches the India VIX value and calculates the expected daily price range for major Indian indices such as Nifty and BankNifty.
It helps traders understand how much the market is likely to move today based on current volatility conditions.
Designed for educational and analytical awareness, not for signals or profit-making systems.
⚙️ Core Logic
Expected Daily Move (Range) = (India VIX × Current Index Price) ÷ Multiplier
- Multiplier for Nifty: 1000
- Multiplier for BankNifty: 700
This calculation projects the 1-standard-deviation (≈ 68% probability) and 2-standard-deviation (≈ 95% probability) movement zones for the day.
📊 Example
If India VIX = 15 and Nifty = 25,000:
Expected Move ≈ (15 × 25,000) ÷ 1000 = 375 points
Hence,
- 68% Range: 24,625 – 25,375
- 95% Range: 24,250 – 25,750
This gives traders a realistic idea of daily volatility boundaries.
🧭 Key Features
✅ Auto-Fetch India VIX
No need for manual input — automatically pulls live data from NSE:INDIAVIX.
✅ Dynamic Range Visualization
Plots upper/lower boundaries for 1σ and 2σ probability zones with shaded expected-move area.
✅ Dashboard Panel

Bridge Bands ATR (Overlay) ShaneHurst-Adaptive Volatility Bands
A fractal-inspired evolution of Bollinger and Keltner bands that adapts dynamically to both volatility and trend persistence.
This indicator estimates the Hurst exponent (H) — a measure of market memory — and adjusts a standard volatility band to lean in the direction of the prevailing trend.
When H > 0.5, markets exhibit persistence (trending behavior); the bands shift in the trend’s direction.
When H < 0.5, markets are mean-reverting; the bands flatten and recent extremes become potential fade zones.
Band width scales with recent volatility (σ), expanding in turbulent conditions and contracting during calm periods.
Key Features:
Adaptive offset using the Hurst exponent
Volatility-sensitive width for dynamic market regimes
EMA baseline with directional bias
Clear visual separation between trending and choppy phases
Inspired by Benoit Mandelbrot’s The Misbehavior of Markets and H.E. Hurst’s original work on long-term memory in time series.
Use it to identify regime shifts, trend-following entries, and volatility-adjusted stop levels.
Credit for this script goes to a number of people including Steve B, MichaalAngle, doc and joecat808. 500 day DEMA (double EMA) can be used as a longer term momentum line.
Cumulative Volume Delta Z Score [BackQuant]Cumulative Volume Delta Z Score
The Cumulative Volume Delta Z Score indicator is a sophisticated tool that combines the cumulative volume delta (CVD) with Z-Score normalization to provide traders with a clearer view of market dynamics. By analyzing volume imbalances and standardizing them through a Z-Score, this tool helps identify significant price movements and market trends while filtering out noise.
Core Concept of Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) is a popular indicator that tracks the net difference between buying and selling volume over time. CVD helps traders understand whether buying or selling pressure is dominating the market. Positive CVD signals buying pressure, while negative CVD indicates selling pressure.
The addition of Z-Score normalization to CVD makes it easier to evaluate whether current volume imbalances are unusual compared to past behavior. Z-Score helps in detecting extreme conditions by showing how far the current CVD is from its historical mean in terms of standard deviations.
Key Features
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD): Tracks the net buying vs. selling volume, allowing traders to gauge the overall market sentiment.
Z-Score Normalization: Converts CVD into a standardized value to highlight extreme movements in volume that are statistically significant.
Divergence Detection: The indicator can spot bullish and bearish divergences between price and CVD, which can signal potential trend reversals.
Pivot-Based Divergence: Identifies price and CVD pivots, highlighting divergence patterns that are crucial for predicting price changes.
Trend Analysis: Colors bars according to trend direction, providing a visual indication of bullish or bearish conditions based on Z-Score.
How It Works
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD): The CVD is calculated by summing the difference between buying and selling volume for each bar. It represents the net buying or selling pressure, giving insights into market sentiment.
Z-Score Normalization: The Z-Score is applied to the CVD to normalize its values, making it easier to compare current conditions with historical averages. A Z-Score greater than 0 indicates a bullish market, while a Z-Score less than 0 signals a bearish market.
Divergence Detection: The indicator detects regular and hidden bullish and bearish divergences between price and CVD. These divergences often precede trend reversals, offering traders a potential entry point.
Pivot-Based Analysis: The indicator uses pivot highs and lows in both price and CVD to identify divergence patterns. A bullish divergence occurs when price makes a lower low, but CVD fails to follow, suggesting weakening selling pressure. Conversely, a bearish divergence happens when price makes a higher high, but CVD doesn't confirm the move, indicating potential selling pressure.
Trend Coloring: The bars are colored based on the trend direction. Green bars indicate an uptrend (CVD is positive), and red bars indicate a downtrend (CVD is negative). This provides an easy-to-read visualization of market conditions.
Standard Deviation Levels: The indicator plots ±1σ, ±2σ, and ±3σ levels to indicate the degree of deviation from the average CVD. These levels act as thresholds for identifying extreme buying or selling pressure.
Customization Options
Anchor Timeframe: The user can define an anchor timeframe to aggregate the CVD, which can be customized based on the trader’s needs (e.g., daily, weekly, custom lower timeframes).
Z-Score Period: The period for calculating the Z-Score can be adjusted, allowing traders to fine-tune the indicator's sensitivity.
Divergence Detection: The tool offers controls to enable or disable divergence detection, with the ability to adjust the lookback periods for pivot detection.
Trend Coloring and Visuals: Traders can choose whether to color bars based on trend direction, display standard deviation levels, or visualize the data as a histogram or line plot.
Display Options: The indicator also allows for various display options, including showing the Z-Score values and divergence signals, with customizable colors and line widths.
Alerts and Signals
The Cumulative Volume Delta Z Score comes with pre-configured alert conditions for:
Z-Score Crossovers: Alerts are triggered when the Z-Score crosses the 0 line, indicating a potential trend reversal.
Shifting Trend: Alerts for when the Z-Score shifts direction, signaling a change in market sentiment.
Divergence Detection: Alerts for both regular and hidden bullish and bearish divergences, offering potential reversal signals.
Extreme Imbalances: Alerts when the Z-Score reaches extreme positive or negative levels, indicating overbought or oversold market conditions.
Applications in Trading
Trend Identification: Use the Z-Score to confirm bullish or bearish trends based on cumulative volume data, filtering out noise and false signals.
Reversal Signals: Divergences between price and CVD can help identify potential trend reversals, making it a powerful tool for swing traders.
Volume-Based Confirmation: The Z-Score allows traders to confirm price movements with volume data, providing more reliable signals compared to price action alone.
Divergence Strategy: Use the divergence signals to identify potential points of entry, particularly when regular or hidden divergences appear.
Volatility and Market Sentiment: The Z-Score provides insights into market volatility by measuring the deviation of CVD from its historical mean, helping to predict price movement strength.
The Cumulative Volume Delta Z Score is a powerful tool that combines volume analysis with statistical normalization. By focusing on volume imbalances and applying Z-Score normalization, this indicator provides clear, reliable signals for trend identification and potential reversals. It is especially useful for filtering out market noise and ensuring that trades are based on significant price movements driven by substantial volume changes.
This indicator is perfect for traders looking to add volume-based analysis to their strategy, offering a more robust and accurate way to gauge market sentiment and trend strength.
Bull-Bear EfficiencyBull-Bear Efficiency
This indicator measures the directional efficiency of price movement across many historical entry points to estimate overall market bias. It is designed as a trend gauge rather than a timing signal.
Concept
For each historical bar (tau) and a chosen lookahead horizon (h), the script evaluates how efficiently price has traveled from that starting point to the endpoint. Efficiency is defined as the net price change divided by the total absolute movement that occurred along the path.
Formula:
E(tau,h) = ( Price - Price ) / ( Sum from i = tau+1 to tau+h of | Price - Price | )
This measures how "straight" the path was from the entry to the current bar:
If price moved steadily upward, the numerator and denominator are nearly equal, and E approaches +1 (efficient bullish trend).
If price moved steadily downward, E approaches -1 (efficient bearish trend).
If price chopped back and forth, the denominator grows faster than the numerator, and E approaches 0 (inefficient movement).
The algorithm computes this efficiency for many past starting points and multiple horizons, optionally normalizing by ATR to account for volatility. The efficiencies are then weighted by recency to emphasize more recent behavior.
From this, the script derives:
Bull = weighted average of positive efficiencies
Bear = weighted average of negative efficiencies (absolute value)
Net = Bull - Bear (net directional efficiency)
Interpretation
Bull, Bear, and Net quantify how coherently the market has been trending.
Bull near 1.0, Bear near 0.0, Net > 0 -> clean upward trends; long positions have been more efficient.
Bear near 1.0, Bull near 0.0, Net < 0 -> clean downward trends; short positions have been more efficient.
Bull and Bear both small or similar -> low-efficiency, range-bound environment.
Net therefore acts as a "trend coherence index" that measures whether price action is directionally organized or noisy.
Practical Use
Trend filter:
Apply trend-following systems only when Net is strongly positive or negative.
Avoid them when Net is near zero.
Regime change detection:
Crossings through zero often correspond to transitions between trending and ranging regimes.
Momentum loss detection:
If price makes new highs but Net or Bull weakens, it suggests trend exhaustion.
Settings Overview
Lookback: Number of historical bars considered as entry points (tau values).
Horizons: List of forward projection lengths (in bars) for measuring efficiency.
Recency Decay (lambda): Exponential weighting that emphasizes recent data.
Normalize by ATR: Adjusts "effort" to account for volatility changes.
Display Options: Toggle Bull, Bear, Net, or Signed Average (S). Customize line colors.
Notes
This indicator does not produce entry or exit signals.
It is a statistical tool that measures how efficiently price has trended over time.
High Net values indicate smooth, coherent trends.
Low or neutral Net values indicate noisy, directionless conditions.
Bollinger Band ToolkitBollinger Band Toolkit
An advanced, adaptive Bollinger Band system for traders who want more context, precision, and edge.
This indicator expands on the classic Bollinger Bands by combining statistical and volatility-based methods with modern divergence and squeeze detection tools. It helps identify volatility regimes, potential breakouts, and early momentum shifts — all within one clean overlay.
🔹 Core Features
1. Adaptive Bollinger Bands (σ + ATR)
Classic 20-period bands enhanced with an ATR-based volatility adjustment, making them more responsive to true market movement rather than just price variance.
Reduces “overreacting” during chop and avoids bands collapsing too tightly during trends.
2. %B & RSI Divergence Detection
🟢 Green dots: Positive %B divergence — price makes a lower low, but %B doesn’t confirm (bullish).
🔴 Red dots: Negative %B divergence — price makes a higher high, but %B doesn’t confirm (bearish).
✚ Red/green crosses: RSI divergence confirmation — momentum fails to confirm the price’s new extreme.
These signals highlight potential reversal or slowdown zones that are often invisible to the naked eye.
3. Bollinger Band Squeeze (with Volume Filter)
Yellow squares (■) show periods when Bollinger Bands are at their narrowest relative to recent history.
Volume confirmation ensures the squeeze only triggers when both volatility and participation contract.
Often marks the “calm before the storm” — breakout potential zones.
4. Multi-Timeframe Breakout Markers
Optionally displays breakouts from higher or lower timeframes using different colors/symbols.
Lets you see when a higher timeframe band break aligns with your current chart — a strong trend continuation signal.
5. Dual- and Triple-Band Visualization (±1σ, ±2σ, ±3σ)
Optional inner (±1σ) and outer (±3σ) bands provide a layered volatility map:
Price holding between ±1σ → stable range / mean-reverting behavior
Price riding near ±2σ → trending phase, sustained momentum
Price touching or exceeding ±3σ → volatility expansion or exhaustion zone
This triple-band layout visually distinguishes normal movement from statistical extremes, helping you read when the market is balanced, expanding, or approaching its limits.
⚙️ Inputs & Customization
Choose band type (SMA/EMA/SMMA/WMA/VWMA)
Adjust deviation multiplier (σ) and ATR multiplier
Toggle individual features (divergence dots, squeeze markers, inner bands, etc.)
Multi-timeframe and colour controls for advanced users
🧠 How to Use
Watch for squeeze markers followed by a breakout bar beyond ±2σ → volatility expansion signal.
Combine divergence dots with RSI or price structure to anticipate slowdowns or reversals.
Confirm direction using multi-timeframe breakouts and volume expansion.
💬 Why It Works
This toolkit transforms qualitative chart reading (tight bands, hidden divergence) into quantitative, testable conditions — giving you objective insights that can be backtested, coded, or simply trusted in live setups.
Measured Pattern Move (Bulkowski) [SS]Hey everyone,
This is the Measured Pattern Move using Bulkowski's process for measured move calculation.
What the indicator does:
The indicator has the associated measured move across 20 of the most common and frequent Bulkowski patterns, including:
Double Bottom / Adam Eve Bottom
Double Top / Adam Eve Top
Inverse Head and Shoulders
Bear Flag
Bull Flag
Horn Bottom
Horon Top
Broadening Top
Descending Broadening Wedge
Broadening Bottoms
Broadening Tops
Cup and Handle
Inverted cup and handle
Diamond Bottom
Diamond Top
Falling Wedge
Rising Wedge
Pipe Bottom
Pipe Top
Head and Shoulders
It will calculate the measured move according to the Bulkowski process.
What is the Bulkowski Process?
Each move has an associated continuation percentage, which Bulkowski has studied, analyzed and concluded statistically.
For example, Double tops have a continuation percent of 54%. Bear flags, 47%. These are "constants" that are associated with the pattern.
Bulkowski applies them to the daily, but how I have formulated this, it can be used on all timeframes, and with the constant, it will correctly calculate the measured move of the pattern.
What this indicator DOES NOT DO
This indicator will not identify the pattern for you.
I tried this using Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) using my own pre-trained Bulkowski model in R. I was successfully able to get Pinescript to calculate DTW which was amazing! But applying it to all these patterns actually went over the execution time limit, which is understandable.
As such, you will need to identify the pattern yourself, then use this indicator to hilight the pattern and it will calculate the measured move based on the constant and the pattern range.
Let's look at some examples:
Use examples
Double bottom / adam eve bottom on SPY on the 1-Minute chart
Adam and Eve Double Bottom QQQ 1-Hour Chart
Adam Eve Double Bottom MSFT Daily Chart
Bearish Head and Shoulders Pattern MSFT Daily
You get the point.
How to use the indicator
To use the indicator, identify the pattern of interest to you.
Then, highlight the pattern using the indicator (it will ask you to select start time of the pattern and end time of the pattern). The indicator will then highlight the pattern and calculate the measured move, as seen in the examples above.
Best approaches
To make the most of the indicator, its best to draw out your pattern and wait for an actual break, the point of the break is usually the end of the pattern formation.
From here, you will then apply this indicator to calculate the expected up or down move.
Let me show you an example:
Here we see CME_MINI:ES1! has made an Adam bottom pattern. We know the Eve should be forming soon and it indeed does:
We mark the top of the pattern like so:
Then we use our Measured move indicator to calculate the measured move:
Measured move here for CME_MINI:ES1! is 6,510.
Now let's see....
Voila!
Selecting the Pattern
After you highlight the selected pattern, in the indicator settings, simply select the type of pattern it is, for example "head and shoulders" or "Broadening wedge", etc.
The indicator will then adjust its measurements to the appropriate constant and direction.
Concluding remarks
That is the indicator!
It is helpful for determining the actual projected move of a pattern on breakout.
Remember, it does not find the pattern for you , you are responsible for identifying the pattern. But this will calculate the actual TP of the pattern for you, without you having to do your own calculations.
I hope you find it useful, I actually use this indicator every day, especially on the lower timeframes!
And you will find, the more you use it, the better you get at recognizing significant patterns!
If you are not aware of these patterns, Bulkowski lists all of this information freely accessible on his website. I cannot link it here but you can just Google him and he has graciously made his information public and free!
That's it, I hope you enjoy and safe trades!

⚙️ How It Works
Compression Phase:
When the candle range and volume are significantly lower than the moving average, the script flags it as a compression zone.
Breakout Confirmation:
A breakout signal is confirmed when the price breaks the previous high/low and is above/below the trend EMA.
Entry Logic:
📈 Buy: Price > previous high + above EMA after compression
📉 Sell: Price < previous low + below EMA after compression

Triple SuperTrend + RSI + Fib BBTriple SuperTrend + RSI + Fibonacci Bollinger Bands Strategy
📊 Overview
This advanced trading strategy combines the power of three SuperTrend indicators with RSI confirmation and Fibonacci Bollinger Bands to generate high-probability trade signals. The strategy is designed to capture strong trending moves while filtering out false signals through multi-indicator confluence.
🔧 Core Components
Three SuperTrend Indicators
The strategy uses three SuperTrend indicators with progressively longer periods and multipliers:
SuperTrend 1: 10-period ATR, 1.0 multiplier (fastest, most sensitive)
SuperTrend 2: 11-period ATR, 2.0 multiplier (medium sensitivity)
SuperTrend 3: 12-period ATR, 3.0 multiplier (slowest, most stable)
This layered approach ensures that all three timeframe perspectives align before generating a signal, significantly reducing false entries.
RSI Confirmation (7-period)
The Relative Strength Index acts as a momentum filter:
Long signals require RSI > 50 (bullish momentum)
Short signals require RSI < 50 (bearish momentum)
This prevents entries during weak or divergent price action.
Fibonacci Bollinger Bands (200, 2.618)
Uses a 200-period Simple Moving Average with 2.618 standard deviation bands (Fibonacci ratio). These bands serve dual purposes:
Visual representation of price extremes
Automatic exit trigger when price reaches overextended levels
📈 Entry Logic
LONG Entry (BUY Signal)
A LONG position is opened when ALL of the following conditions are met simultaneously:
All three SuperTrend indicators turn green (bullish)
RSI(7) is above 50
This is the first bar where all conditions align (no repainting)
SHORT Entry (SELL Signal)
A SHORT position is opened when ALL of the following conditions are met simultaneously:
All three SuperTrend indicators turn red (bearish)
RSI(7) is below 50
This is the first bar where all conditions align (no repainting)
🚪 Exit Logic
Positions are automatically closed when ANY of these conditions occur:
SuperTrend Color Change: Any one of the three SuperTrend indicators changes direction
Fibonacci BB Touch: Price reaches or exceeds the upper or lower Fibonacci Bollinger Band (2.618 standard deviations)
This dual-exit approach protects profits by:
Exiting quickly when trend momentum shifts (SuperTrend change)
Taking profits at statistical price extremes (Fib BB touch)

💡 Strategy Philosophy
This strategy is built on the principle of confluence trading - waiting for multiple independent indicators to align before taking a position. By requiring three SuperTrend indicators AND RSI confirmation, the strategy filters out the majority of low-probability setups.
The multi-timeframe SuperTrend approach ensures that short-term, medium-term, and longer-term trends are all in agreement, which typically occurs during strong, sustainable price moves.
The exit strategy is equally important, using both trend-following logic (SuperTrend changes) and mean-reversion logic (Fibonacci BB touches) to adapt to different market conditions.
📊 Best Use Cases
Trending Markets: Works best in markets with clear directional bias
Higher Timeframes: Designed for 15-minute to daily charts
Volatile Assets: SuperTrend indicators excel in assets with clear trends
Swing Trading: Hold times typically range from hours to days
⚠️ Important Notes
No Repainting: All signals are confirmed and will not change on historical bars
One Signal Per Setup: The strategy prevents duplicate signals on consecutive bars
Exit Protection: Always exits before potentially taking an opposite position
Visual Clarity: All three SuperTrend lines are visible simultaneously for transparency
🎯 Recommended Settings
While default parameters are optimized for general use, consider:
Crypto/Volatile Markets: May benefit from slightly higher multipliers
Forex: Default settings work well for major pairs
Stocks: Consider longer BB periods (250-300) for daily charts
Lower Timeframes: Reduce all periods proportionally for scalping
