Scalping System by Machine# Custom Trading System Indicator This Pine Script indicator is designed to identify potential trading setups based on a specific set of rules. It's intended for use on lower timeframes (M1-M5) in the forex market, particularly during the New York-London overlap period. ## Key Features 1. **EMA Condition**: Uses a 20-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) to determine trend direction. 2. **Candle Analysis**: Identifies strong bars and candle color changes. 3. **Volume Confirmation**: Checks for increasing volume. 4. **Volatility Filter**: Utilizes the Average True Range (ATR) to gauge market volatility. 5. **Time-based Filter**: Highlights the New York-London overlap period. 6. **Visual Aids**: Plots potential entry points, stop losses, and take profit levels. ## Trading Rules 1. **Buy Signal**: - Price is above the 20 EMA - Candle color changes from red to green - Current candle is a strong bar (closing within 75% of its range) - Volume is higher than the previous bar - ATR(14) is above 4 pips OR it's during the NY-London overlap 2. **Sell Signal**: - Price is below the 20 EMA - Candle color changes from green to red - Current candle is a strong bar (closing within 75% of its range) - Volume is higher than the previous bar - ATR(14) is above 4 pips OR it's during the NY-London overlap 3. **Stop Loss**: Placed near the low of the setup candle for buys, or near the high for sells. 4. **Take Profit**: Aimed at 1R (one times the range of the setup candle). ## Visual Elements - **20 EMA**: Plotted as a blue line on the chart. - **Buy Signals**: Green triangles below the candles. - **Sell Signals**: Red triangles above the candles. - **Stop Loss Levels**: Small red dots at the calculated stop loss prices. - **Take Profit Levels**: Small green dots at the calculated take profit prices. - **Information Table**: Displays current values for ATR, strong bar condition and volume condition. ## Usage Notes 1. This indicator is designed for manual trading, not automated execution. 2. It works best when combined with analysis of major trend lines, support, and resistance levels. 3. Exercise caution with very large setup candles. 4. Consider additional filters or money management rules for enhanced performance. 5. For higher timeframe bias validation, consider incorporating a 100-period break of structure (BOS) analysis. ## Customization The indicator includes several input parameters that can be adjusted: - EMA Length - ATR Length and Threshold - Volume Multiplier - Strong Bar Percentage Users can also toggle the visibility of stop loss and take profit markers. Remember, while this indicator can identify potential setups, it should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis and risk management strategies. Always consider the overall market context and your personal risk tolerance when making trading decisions.

Scalping level 1.3.0The indicator shows the horizontal levels behind which the liquidity accumulates. The indicator is based on the price extremums according to the specified settings. Each extremum is marked with a faint blue line and the price. If two or more extrema are located at the same price or close enough to each other, they are highlighted in bright blue, and it indicates a strong resistance or support level. When prices approach strong resistance levels, we can consider the situation on a long breakout or a bounce from the level in the short. As price approaches strong support levels, we could consider a breakout in the short or a bounce from the level in the long. Each level has a time (indicated at each price extremum), when it was formed in hours, the more hours ago the level was formed, the stronger it is and the more likely is the price reaction at this level. The marks next to the price show the distance in percent to the nearest strong levels, it gives a reference point for how soon the price will approach these levels. Additional indicators, located at the top right of the chart help to make decisions in trading. Daily dollar volume - shows how interesting the instrument to the market participants, if the traded volume for 24 hours is low, then it is not worth to pay attention to this tool. Bitcoin correlation - (used for the cryptocurrency market), if the coin price follows the bitcoin (the indicator value is close to 1), then you should exclude this coin, because the price is controlled by robot correlators, not market participants. Natr - the average volatility of a 5-minute candle in %. The low value of volatility can indicate that the instrument is not active at the moment. Also it is possible to use this value as a stoploss in scalper deals. Price change - price change for the current session in %, if the value is more than 10% (for cryptocurrencies), then the breakdown of resistance levels have a higher probability than a bounce, if the value is less than -10%, then the probability of breaking support levels have a higher than a bounce. Percentage of average daily ATR - shows how much the price passed in % for the current session from the average daily ATR. If price passed about 100%, it is possible to consider the price reversal from resistance or support levels. Important! When trading on levels it is necessary to consider the situation in the Depth of Market. Pay attention to large densities located near support and resistance levels. === Basic settings: === LOCAL LEVEL, MIDDLE LEVEL, GLOBAL LEVEL . Three ranges of levels (local, middle, global). For each range, you can configure the period and lifetime of the level. For example, global levels are the strongest, they have the longest period and the longest time of existence (note: 0 for Lifetime means infinite time of existence), while local levels have the shortest period and the shortest time of existence. Period - the period in which the level is built. Lifetime - time after which the level is removed from the chart. Color and width - color and width of the line. BREAK LEVELS . Levels broken by the price. These levels are displayed for convenient tracking of previous breakouts. Parameters are set similarly to other levels. IMPORTANT LEVELS . Important levels show behind which price range the greatest accumulation of liquidity. Important levels can be adjusted by setting the minimum number of adjacent levels, for example 2 or more, as well as the maximum distance between adjacent levels. Thus, important levels show the accumulation of price extremums, behind which there are Stop Losses of the participants. Near level coefficient - the distance coefficient between adjacent levels, the higher the coefficient is, the greater is the acceptable price range between the levels. The coefficient is multiplied by the average ATR, as a result we get the price range. For example, if we specify 0, then strong levels will be detected only if 2 or more extrema have the same price. Minimum near levels - the minimum number of adjacent (close to each other) levels. For example, if 2 is specified, then if 2 or more levels are situated near each other at a distance not exceeding the distance, specified in the Near level coefficient, then those levels will be displayed in bright blue color. Week level transparent - transparency of "weak" levels located at the price extremums. COMMON. Max distance to level - the maximum distance of levels is set by a coefficient, it is necessary to display only the closest levels to hide the levels that are formed very far from the current price. It is calculated on the basis of ATR. Show level time - shows level existence time. PRICE. Visual settings of price levels on the chart Size - print size of price on the chart Color - color of price on the chart Round price color - color of the round price number. The round number is the price with the last two digits 0. Example 28124.00 or 0.2500 INDICATORS. Auxiliary numeric indicators (located in the upper right corner of the chart): Daily dollar volume , the traded volume for the last 24 hours in dollars. You can specify a volume threshold in millions of dollars, above which the value will be highlighted in green. The default value is 100 million dollars. A high value of traded volume indicates a large number of participants and increases the probability of volatility of the instrument. Bitcoin correlation , an indicator of price correlation with bitcoin, the lower the indicator, the instrument is more independent, the closer to 1, the stronger the instrument repeats bitcoin price movements. It has a threshold value of 0.5 by default. If the indicator reading is below the threshold, it is highlighted in color. Natr , shows the average range at which the price passes in 5 min. The higher the indicator, the higher the volatility of the instrument. Price change , price change in % for the current session. Percentage of average daily ATR , shows how much the price passed in % for the current session from the average daily ATR.

Scalping EMA ADX RSI with Buy/Sell AlertsThis is a study indicator that shows the entries in the strategy seen in one of the youtube channel so it does not belong to me. I can't tell who it is because it's against the House Rules to advertise but you can find out if you look for it on youtube. Default values of oscilators and ema adjusted as suggested. He says he got the best results in 5 min timeframe but i tried to make things as modifiable as possible so you can mess around with the settings and create your own strategy for different timeframes if you'd like. Suggested to use with normal candlestick charts. The blue line below indicates the ADX is above the selected threshold set in the settings named "Trend Ready Limit". You can set alerts for Buy, Sell or Buy/Sell signal together. The entry strategy itself is pretty straight forward. The rules for entry are as follows, the script will check all of this on auto and will give you buy or sell signal : Recommended time frame: 5 min For Long Entry: - Check if price above the set EMA (Can disable this rule if you'd like in the settings) - RSI is in Oversold - ADX is above set "Trend Ready" threshold (Meaning there is a trend going on) - Price must approve the trend of previous candles. This is bullish for buy entries and bearish for sell entries. - Enter with stop loss below last swing low with 1:1 or 1.5:1 take profit ratio. For Short Entry: - Check if price below the set EMA (Can disable this rule if you'd like in the settings) - RSI is in Overbought - ADX is above set "Trend Ready" threshold (Meaning there is a trend going on) - Price must approve the trend of previous candles. This is bullish for buy entries and bearish for sell entries. - Enter with stop loss above last swing high with 1:1 or 1.5:1 take profit ratio. This is my first indicator. Let me know if you want any updates. I am not sure if i can add everything but i'll try nonetheless. Changed: Signals will check up to 2 candles before if the RSI is below or above the set value to show signal. This is because sometimes the entry signal is right but the response might be a bit late.

ORB Fusion🎯 CORE INNOVATION: INSTITUTIONAL ORB FRAMEWORK WITH FAILED BREAKOUT INTELLIGENCE ORB Fusion represents a complete institutional-grade Opening Range Breakout system combining classic Market Profile concepts (Initial Balance, day type classification) with modern algorithmic breakout detection, failed breakout reversal logic, and comprehensive statistical tracking. Rather than simply drawing lines at opening range extremes, this system implements the full trading methodology used by professional floor traders and market makers—including the critical concept that failed breakouts are often higher-probability setups than successful breakouts . The Opening Range Hypothesis: The first 30-60 minutes of trading establishes the day's value area —the price range where the majority of participants agree on fair value. This range is formed during peak information flow (overnight news digestion, gap reactions, early institutional positioning). Breakouts from this range signal directional conviction; failures to hold breakouts signal trapped participants and create exploitable reversals. Why Opening Range Matters: 1. Information Aggregation : Opening range reflects overnight news, pre-market sentiment, and early institutional orders. It's the market's initial "consensus" on value. 2. Liquidity Concentration : Stop losses cluster just outside opening range. Breakouts trigger these stops, creating momentum. Failed breakouts trap traders, forcing reversals. 3. Statistical Persistence : Markets exhibit range expansion tendency —when price accepts above/below opening range with volume, it often extends 1.0-2.0x the opening range size before mean reversion. 4. Institutional Behavior : Large players (market makers, institutions) use opening range as reference for the day's trading plan. They fade extremes in rotation days and follow breakouts in trend days. Historical Context: Opening Range Breakout methodology originated in commodity futures pits (1970s-80s) where floor traders noticed consistent patterns: the first 30-60 minutes established a "fair value zone," and directional moves occurred when this zone was violated with conviction. J. Peter Steidlmayer formalized this observation in Market Profile theory, introducing the "Initial Balance" concept—the first hour (two 30-minute periods) defining market structure. 📊 OPENING RANGE CONSTRUCTION Four ORB Timeframe Options: 1. 5-Minute ORB (0930-0935 ET): Captures immediate market direction during "opening drive"—the explosive first few minutes when overnight orders hit the tape. Use Case: • Scalping strategies • High-frequency breakout trading • Extremely liquid instruments (ES, NQ, SPY) Characteristics: • Very tight range (often 0.2-0.5% of price) • Early breakouts common (7 of 10 days break within first hour) • Higher false breakout rate (50-60%) • Requires sub-minute chart monitoring Psychology: Captures panic buyers/sellers reacting to overnight news. Range is small because sample size is minimal—only 5 minutes of price discovery. Early breakouts often fail because they're driven by retail FOMO rather than institutional conviction. 2. 15-Minute ORB (0930-0945 ET): Balances responsiveness with statistical validity. Captures opening drive plus initial reaction to that drive. Use Case: • Day trading strategies • Balanced scalping/swing hybrid • Most liquid instruments Characteristics: • Moderate range (0.4-0.8% of price typically) • Breakout rate ~60% of days • False breakout rate ~40-45% • Good balance of opportunity and reliability Psychology: Includes opening panic AND the first retest/consolidation. Sophisticated traders (institutions, algos) start expressing directional bias. This is the "Goldilocks" timeframe—not too reactive, not too slow. 3. 30-Minute ORB (0930-1000 ET): Classic ORB timeframe. Default for most professional implementations. Use Case: • Standard intraday trading • Position sizing for full-day trades • All liquid instruments (equities, indices, futures) Characteristics: • Substantial range (0.6-1.2% of price) • Breakout rate ~55% of days • False breakout rate ~35-40% • Statistical sweet spot for extensions Psychology: Full opening auction + first institutional repositioning complete. By 10:00 AM ET, headlines are digested, early stops are hit, and "real" directional players reveal themselves. This is when institutional programs typically finish their opening positioning. Statistical Advantage: 30-minute ORB shows highest correlation with daily range. When price breaks and holds outside 30m ORB, probability of reaching 1.0x extension (doubling the opening range) exceeds 60% historically. 4. 60-Minute ORB (0930-1030 ET) - Initial Balance: Steidlmayer's "Initial Balance"—the foundation of Market Profile theory. Use Case: • Swing trading entries • Day type classification • Low-frequency institutional setups Characteristics: • Wide range (0.8-1.5% of price) • Breakout rate ~45% of days • False breakout rate ~25-30% (lowest) • Best for trend day identification Psychology: Full first hour captures A-period (0930-1000) and B-period (1000-1030). By 10:30 AM ET, all early positioning is complete. Market has "voted" on value. Subsequent price action confirms (trend day) or rejects (rotation day) this value assessment. Initial Balance Theory: IB represents the market's accepted value area . When price extends significantly beyond IB (>1.5x IB range), it signals a Trend Day —strong directional conviction. When price remains within 1.0x IB, it signals a Rotation Day —mean reversion environment. This classification completely changes trading strategy. 🔬 LTF PRECISION TECHNOLOGY The Chart Timeframe Problem: Traditional ORB indicators calculate range using the chart's current timeframe. This creates critical inaccuracies: Example: • You're on a 5-minute chart • ORB period is 30 minutes (0930-1000 ET) • Indicator sees only 6 bars (30min ÷ 5min/bar = 6 bars) • If any 5-minute bar has extreme wick, entire ORB is distorted The Problem Amplifies: • On 15-minute chart with 30-minute ORB: Only 2 bars sampled • On 30-minute chart with 30-minute ORB: Only 1 bar sampled • Opening spike or single large wick defines entire range (invalid) Solution: Lower Timeframe (LTF) Precision: ORB Fusion uses `request.security_lower_tf()` to sample 1-minute bars regardless of chart timeframe: ``` For 30-minute ORB on 15-minute chart: - Traditional method: Uses 2 bars (15min × 2 = 30min) - LTF Precision: Requests thirty 1-minute bars, calculates true high/low ``` Why This Matters: Scenario: ES futures, 15-minute chart, 30-minute ORB • Traditional ORB: High = 5850.00, Low = 5842.00 (range = 8 points) • LTF Precision ORB: High = 5848.50, Low = 5843.25 (range = 5.25 points) Difference: 2.75 points distortion from single 15-minute wick hitting 5850.00 at 9:31 AM then immediately reversing. LTF precision filters this out by seeing it was a fleeting wick, not a sustained high. Impact on Extensions: With inflated range (8 points vs 5.25 points): • 1.5x extension projects +12 points instead of +7.875 points • Difference: 4.125 points (nearly $200 per ES contract) • Breakout signals trigger late; extension targets unreachable Implementation: ```pinescript getLtfHighLow() => float ha = request.security_lower_tf(syminfo.tickerid, "1", high) float la = request.security_lower_tf(syminfo.tickerid, "1", low) ``` Function returns arrays of 1-minute high/low values, then finds true maximum and minimum across all samples. When LTF Precision Activates: Only when chart timeframe exceeds ORB session window: • 5-minute chart + 30-minute ORB: LTF used (chart TF > session bars needed) • 1-minute chart + 30-minute ORB: LTF not needed (direct sampling sufficient) Recommendation: Always enable LTF Precision unless you're on 1-minute charts. The computational overhead is negligible, and accuracy improvement is substantial. ⚖️ INITIAL BALANCE (IB) FRAMEWORK Steidlmayer's Market Profile Innovation: J. Peter Steidlmayer developed Market Profile in the 1980s for the Chicago Board of Trade. His key insight: market structure is best understood through time-at-price (value area) rather than just price-over-time (traditional charts). Initial Balance Definition: IB is the price range established during the first hour of trading, subdivided into: • A-Period : First 30 minutes (0930-1000 ET for US equities) • B-Period : Second 30 minutes (1000-1030 ET) A-Period vs B-Period Comparison: The relationship between A and B periods forecasts the day: B-Period Expansion (Bullish): • B-period high > A-period high • B-period low ≥ A-period low • Interpretation: Buyers stepping in after opening assessed • Implication: Bullish continuation likely • Strategy: Buy pullbacks to A-period high (now support) B-Period Expansion (Bearish): • B-period low < A-period low • B-period high ≤ A-period high • Interpretation: Sellers stepping in after opening assessed • Implication: Bearish continuation likely • Strategy: Sell rallies to A-period low (now resistance) B-Period Contraction: • B-period stays within A-period range • Interpretation: Market indecisive, digesting A-period information • Implication: Rotation day likely, stay range-bound • Strategy: Fade extremes, sell high/buy low within IB IB Extensions: Professional traders use IB as a ruler to project price targets: Extension Levels: • 0.5x IB : Initial probe outside value (minor target) • 1.0x IB : Full extension (major target for normal days) • 1.5x IB : Trend day threshold (classifies as trending) • 2.0x IB : Strong trend day (rare, ~10-15% of days) Calculation: ``` IB Range = IB High - IB Low Bull Extension 1.0x = IB High + (IB Range × 1.0) Bear Extension 1.0x = IB Low - (IB Range × 1.0) ``` Example: ES futures: • IB High: 5850.00 • IB Low: 5842.00 • IB Range: 8.00 points Extensions: • 1.0x Bull Target: 5850 + 8 = 5858.00 • 1.5x Bull Target: 5850 + 12 = 5862.00 • 2.0x Bull Target: 5850 + 16 = 5866.00 If price reaches 5862.00 (1.5x), day is classified as Trend Day —strategy shifts from mean reversion to trend following. 📈 DAY TYPE CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM Four Day Types (Market Profile Framework): 1. TREND DAY: Definition: Price extends ≥1.5x IB range in one direction and stays there. Characteristics: • Opens and never returns to IB • Persistent directional movement • Volume increases as day progresses (conviction building) • News-driven or strong institutional flow Frequency: ~20-25% of trading days Trading Strategy: • DO: Follow the trend, trail stops, let winners run • DON'T: Fade extremes, take early profits • Key: Add to position on pullbacks to previous extension level • Risk: Getting chopped in false trend (see Failed Breakout section) Example: FOMC decision, payroll report, earnings surprise—anything creating one-sided conviction. 2. NORMAL DAY: Definition: Price extends 0.5-1.5x IB, tests both sides, returns to IB. Characteristics: • Two-sided trading • Extensions occur but don't persist • Volume balanced throughout day • Most common day type Frequency: ~45-50% of trading days Trading Strategy: • DO: Take profits at extension levels, expect reversals • DON'T: Hold for massive moves • Key: Treat each extension as a profit-taking opportunity • Risk: Holding too long when momentum shifts Example: Typical day with no major catalysts—market balancing supply and demand. 3. ROTATION DAY: Definition: Price stays within IB all day, rotating between high and low. Characteristics: • Never accepts outside IB • Multiple tests of IB high/low • Decreasing volume (no conviction) • Classic range-bound action Frequency: ~25-30% of trading days Trading Strategy: • DO: Fade extremes (sell IB high, buy IB low) • DON'T: Chase breakouts • Key: Enter at extremes with tight stops just outside IB • Risk: Breakout finally occurs after multiple failures Example: [/b> Pre-holiday trading, summer doldrums, consolidation after big move. 4. DEVELOPING: Definition: Day type not yet determined (early in session). Usage: Classification before 12:00 PM ET when IB extension pattern unclear. ORB Fusion's Classification Algorithm: ```pinescript if close > ibHigh: ibExtension = (close - ibHigh) / ibRange direction = "BULLISH" else if close < ibLow: ibExtension = (ibLow - close) / ibRange direction = "BEARISH" if ibExtension >= 1.5: dayType = "TREND DAY" else if ibExtension >= 0.5: dayType = "NORMAL DAY" else if close within IB: dayType = "ROTATION DAY" ``` Why Classification Matters: Same setup (bullish ORB breakout) has opposite implications: • Trend Day : Hold for 2.0x extension, trail stops aggressively • Normal Day : Take profits at 1.0x extension, watch for reversal • Rotation Day : Fade the breakout immediately (likely false) Knowing day type prevents catastrophic errors like fading a trend day or holding through rotation. 🚀 BREAKOUT DETECTION & CONFIRMATION Three Confirmation Methods: 1. Close Beyond Level (Recommended): Logic: Candle must close above ORB high (bull) or below ORB low (bear). Why: • Filters out wicks (temporary liquidity grabs) • Ensures sustained acceptance above/below range • Reduces false breakout rate by ~20-30% Example: • ORB High: 5850.00 • Bar high touches 5850.50 (wick above) • Bar closes at 5848.00 (inside range) • Result: NO breakout signal vs. • Bar high touches 5850.50 • Bar closes at 5851.00 (outside range) • Result: BREAKOUT signal confirmed Trade-off: Slightly delayed entry (wait for close) but much higher reliability. 2. Wick Beyond Level: Logic: [/b> Any touch of ORB high/low triggers breakout. Why: • Earliest possible entry • Captures aggressive momentum moves Risk: • High false breakout rate (60-70%) • Stop runs trigger signals • Requires very tight stops (difficult to manage) Use Case: Scalping with 1-2 point profit targets where any penetration = trade. 3. Body Beyond Level: Logic: [/b> Candle body (close vs open) must be entirely outside range. Why: • Strictest confirmation • Ensures directional conviction (not just momentum) • Lowest false breakout rate Example: Trade-off: [/b> Very conservative—misses some valid breakouts but rarely triggers on false ones. Volume Confirmation Layer: All confirmation methods can require volume validation: Volume Multiplier Logic: Rationale: [/b> True breakouts are driven by institutional activity (large size). Volume spike confirms real conviction vs. stop-run manipulation. Statistical Impact: [/b> • Breakouts with volume confirmation: ~65% success rate • Breakouts without volume: ~45% success rate • Difference: 20 percentage points edge Implementation Note: [/b> Volume confirmation adds complexity—you'll miss breakouts that work but lack volume. However, when targeting 1.5x+ extensions (ambitious goals), volume confirmation becomes critical because those moves require sustained institutional participation. Recommended Settings by Strategy: [/b> Scalping (1-2 point targets): [/b> • Method: Close • Volume: OFF • Rationale: Quick in/out doesn't need perfection Intraday Swing (5-10 point targets): [/b> • Method: Close • Volume: ON (1.5x multiplier) • Rationale: Balance reliability and opportunity Position Trading (full-day holds): [/b> • Method: Body • Volume: ON (2.0x multiplier) • Rationale: Must be certain—large stops require high win rate 🔥 FAILED BREAKOUT SYSTEM The Core Insight: [/b> Failed breakouts are often more profitable [/b> than successful breakouts because they create trapped traders with predictable behavior. Failed Breakout Definition: [/b> A breakout that: 1. Initially penetrates ORB level with confirmation 2. Attracts participants (volume spike, momentum) 3. Fails to extend (stalls or immediately reverses) 4. Returns inside ORB range within N bars Psychology of Failure: [/b> When breakout fails: • Breakout buyers are trapped [/b>: Bought at ORB high, now underwater • Early longs reduce: Take profit, fearful of reversal • Shorts smell blood: See failed breakout as reversal signal • Result: Cascade of selling as trapped bulls exit + new shorts enter Mirror image for failed bearish breakouts (trapped shorts cover + new longs enter). Failure Detection Parameters: [/b> 1. Failure Confirmation Bars (default: 3): [/b> How many bars after breakout to confirm failure? Logic: Settings: [/b> • 2 bars: Aggressive failure detection (more signals, more false failures) • 3 bars Balanced (default) • 5-10 bars: Conservative (wait for clear reversal) Why This Matters: Too few bars: You call "failed breakout" when price is just consolidating before next leg. Too many bars: You miss the reversal entry (price already back in range). 2. Failure Buffer (default: 0.1 ATR): [/b> How far inside ORB must price return to confirm failure? Formula: Why Buffer Matters: clear rejection [/b> (not just hovering at level). Settings: [/b> • 0.0 ATR: No buffer, immediate failure signal • 0.1 ATR: Small buffer (default) - filters noise • [b>0.2-0.3 ATR: Large buffer - only dramatic failures count Example: Reversal Entry System: [/b> When failure confirmed, system generates complete reversal trade: For Failed Bull Breakout (Short Reversal): [/b> Entry: [/b> Current close when failure confirmed Stop Loss: [/b> Extreme high since breakout + 0.10 ATR padding Target 1: [/b> ORB High - (ORB Range × 0.5) Target 2: Target 3: [/b> ORB High - (ORB Range × 1.5) Example: • ORB High: 5850, ORB Low: 5842, Range: 8 points • Breakout to 5853, fails, reverses to 5848 (entry) • Stop: 5853 + 1 = 5854 (6 point risk) • T1: 5850 - 4 = 5846 (-2 points, 1:3 R:R) • T2: 5850 - 8 = 5842 (-6 points, 1:1 R:R) • T3: 5850 - 12 = 5838 (-10 points, 1.67:1 R:R) [b>Why These Targets? [/b> • T1 (0.5x ORB below high): Trapped bulls start panic • T2 (1.0x ORB = ORB Mid): Major retracement, momentum fully reversed • T3 (1.5x ORB): Reversal extended, now targeting opposite side Historical Performance: [/b> Failed breakout reversals in ORB Fusion's tracking system show: • Win Rate: 65-75% (significantly higher than initial breakouts) • Average Winner: 1.2x ORB range • Average Loser: 0.5x ORB range (protected by stop at extreme) • Expectancy: Strongly positive even with <70% win rate Why Failed Breakouts Outperform: [/b> 1. Information Advantage: You now know what price did (failed to extend). Initial breakout trades are speculative; reversal trades are reactive to confirmed failure. 2. Trapped Participant Pressure: Every trapped bull becomes a seller. This creates sustained pressure. 3. Stop Loss Clarity: Extreme high is obvious stop (just beyond recent high). Breakout trades have ambiguous stops (ORB mid? Recent low? Too wide or too tight). 4. Mean Reversion Edge: Failed breakouts return to value (ORB mid). Initial breakouts try to escape value (harder to sustain). Critical Insight: [/b> "The best trade is often the one that trapped everyone else." Failed breakouts create asymmetric opportunity because you're trading against [/b> trapped participants rather than with [/b> them. When you see a failed breakout signal, you're seeing real-time evidence that the market rejected directional conviction—that's exploitable. 📐 FIBONACCI EXTENSION SYSTEM Six Extension Levels: [/b> Extensions project how far price will travel after ORB breakout. Based on Fibonacci ratios + empirical market behavior. 1. 1.272x (27.2% Extension): [/b> Formula: [/b> ORB High/Low + (ORB Range × 0.272) Psychology: [/b> Initial probe beyond ORB. Early momentum + trapped shorts (on bull side) covering. Probability of Reach: [/b> ~75-80% after confirmed breakout Trading: [/b> • First resistance/support after breakout • Partial profit target (take 30-50% off) • Watch for rejection here (could signal failure in progress) Why 1.272? [/b> Related to harmonic patterns (1.272 is √1.618). Empirically, markets often stall at 25-30% extension before deciding whether to continue or fail. 2. 1.5x (50% Extension): Formula: [/b> ORB High/Low + (ORB Range × 0.5) Psychology: [/b> Breakout gaining conviction. Requires sustained buying/selling (not just momentum spike). Probability of Reach: [/b> ~60-65% after confirmed breakout Trading: [/b> • Major partial profit (take 50-70% off) • Move stops to breakeven • Trail remaining position Why 1.5x? [/b> Classic halfway point to 2.0x. Markets often consolidate here before final push. If day type is "Normal," this is likely the high/low for the day. 3. 1.618x (Golden Ratio Extension): [/b> Formula: [/b> ORB High/Low + (ORB Range × 0.618) Psychology: [/b> Strong directional day. Institutional conviction + retail FOMO. Probability of Reach: [/b> ~45-50% after confirmed breakout Trading: [/b> • Final partial profit (close 80-90%) • Trail remainder with wide stop (allow breathing room) Why 1.618? [/b> Fibonacci golden ratio. Appears consistently in market geometry. When price reaches 1.618x extension, move is "mature" and reversal risk increases. 4. 2.0x (100% Extension): [/b> Formula: ORB High/Low + (ORB Range × 1.0) Psychology: [/b> Trend day confirmed. Opening range completely duplicated. Probability of Reach: [/b> ~30-35% after confirmed breakout Trading: Why 2.0x? [/b> Psychological level—range doubled. Also corresponds to typical daily ATR in many instruments (opening range ~ 0.5 ATR, daily range ~ 1.0 ATR). 5. 2.618x (Super Extension): Formula: [/b> ORB High/Low + (ORB Range × 1.618) Psychology: [/b> Parabolic move. News-driven or squeeze. Probability of Reach: [/b> ~10-15% after confirmed breakout [b>Trading: Why 2.618? [/b> Fibonacci ratio (1.618²). Rare to reach—when it does, move is extreme. Often precedes multi-day consolidation or reversal. 6. 3.0x (Extreme Extension): [/b> Formula: [/b> ORB High/Low + (ORB Range × 2.0) Psychology: [/b> Market melt-up/crash. Only in extreme events. [b>Probability of Reach: [/b> <5% after confirmed breakout Trading: [/b> • Close immediately if reached • These are outlier events (black swans, flash crashes, squeeze-outs) • Holding for more is greed—take windfall profit Why 3.0x? [/b> Triple opening range. So rare it's statistical noise. When it happens, it's headline news. Visual Example: ES futures, ORB 5842-5850 (8 point range), Bullish breakout: • ORB High : 5850.00 (entry zone) • 1.272x : 5850 + 2.18 = 5852.18 (first resistance) • 1.5x : 5850 + 4.00 = 5854.00 (major target) • 1.618x : 5850 + 4.94 = 5854.94 (strong target) • 2.0x : 5850 + 8.00 = 5858.00 (trend day) • 2.618x : 5850 + 12.94 = 5862.94 (extreme) • 3.0x : 5850 + 16.00 = 5866.00 (parabolic) Profit-Taking Strategy: Optimal scaling out at extensions: • Breakout entry at 5850.50 • 30% off at 1.272x (5852.18) → +1.68 points • 40% off at 1.5x (5854.00) → +3.50 points • 20% off at 1.618x (5854.94) → +4.44 points • 10% off at 2.0x (5858.00) → +7.50 points [b>Average Exit: Conclusion: [/b> Scaling out at extensions produces 40% higher expectancy than holding for home runs. 📊 GAP ANALYSIS & FILL PSYCHOLOGY [b>Gap Definition: [/b> Price discontinuity between previous close and current open: • Gap Up : Open > Previous Close + noise threshold (0.1 ATR) • Gap Down : Open < Previous Close - noise threshold Why Gaps Matter: [/b> Gaps represent unfilled orders [/b>. When market gaps up, all limit buy orders between yesterday's close and today's open are never filled. Those buyers are "left behind." Psychology: they wait for price to return ("fill the gap") so they can enter. This creates magnetic pull [/b> toward gap level. Gap Fill Statistics (Empirical): [/b> • Gaps <0.5% [/b>: 85-90% fill within same day • Gaps 0.5-1.0% [/b>: 70-75% fill within same day, 90%+ within week • Gaps >1.0% [/b>: 50-60% fill within same day (major news often prevents fill) Gap Fill Strategy: [/b> Setup 1: Gap-and-Go Gap opens, extends away from gap (doesn't fill). • ORB confirms direction away from gap • Trade WITH ORB breakout direction • Expectation: Gap won't fill today (momentum too strong) Setup 2: Gap-Fill Fade Gap opens, but fails to extend. Price drifts back toward gap. • ORB breakout TOWARD gap (not away) • Trade toward gap fill level • Target: Previous close (gap fill complete) Setup 3: Gap-Fill Rejection Gap fills (touches previous close) then rejects. • ORB breakout AWAY from gap after fill • Trade away from gap direction • Thesis: Gap filled (orders executed), now resume original direction [b>Example: Scenario A (Gap-and-Go): • ORB breaks upward to $454 (away from gap) • Trade: LONG breakout, expect continued rally • Gap becomes support ($452) Scenario B (Gap-Fill): • ORB breaks downward through $452.50 (toward gap) • Trade: SHORT toward gap fill at $450.00 • Target: $450.00 (gap filled), close position Scenario C (Gap-Fill Rejection): • Price drifts to $450.00 (gap filled) early in session • ORB establishes $450-$451 after gap fill • ORB breaks upward to $451.50 • Trade: LONG breakout (gap is filled, now resume rally) ORB Fusion Integration: [/b> Dashboard shows: • Gap type (Up/Down/None) • Gap size (percentage) • Gap fill status (Filled ✓ / Open) This informs setup confidence: • ORB breakout AWAY from unfilled gap: +10% confidence (gap becomes support/resistance) • ORB breakout TOWARD unfilled gap: -10% confidence (gap fill may override ORB) [b>📈 VWAP & INSTITUTIONAL BIAS [/b> [b>Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP): [/b> Average price weighted by volume at each price level. Represents true "average" cost for the day. [b>Calculation: Institutional Benchmark [/b>: Institutions (mutual funds, pension funds) use VWAP as performance benchmark. If they buy above VWAP, they underperformed; below VWAP, they outperformed. 2. [b>Algorithmic Target [/b>: Many algos are programmed to buy below VWAP and sell above VWAP to achieve "fair" execution. 3. [b>Support/Resistance [/b>: VWAP acts as dynamic support (price above) or resistance (price below). [b>VWAP Bands (Standard Deviations): [/b> • [b>1σ Band [/b>: VWAP ± 1 standard deviation - Contains ~68% of volume - Normal trading range - Bounces common • [b>2σ Band [/b>: VWAP ± 2 standard deviations - Contains ~95% of volume - Extreme extension - Mean reversion likely ORB + VWAP Confluence: [/b> Highest-probability setups occur when ORB and VWAP align: Bullish Confluence: [/b> • ORB breakout upward (bullish signal) • Price above VWAP (institutional buying) • Confidence boost: +15% Bearish Confluence: [/b> • ORB breakout downward (bearish signal) • Price below VWAP (institutional selling) • Confidence boost: +15% [b>Divergence Warning: • ORB breakout upward BUT price below VWAP • Conflict: Breakout says "buy," VWAP says "sell" • Confidence penalty: -10% • Interpretation: Retail buying but institutions not participating (lower quality breakout) 📊 MOMENTUM CONTEXT SYSTEM [b>Innovation: Candle Coloring by Position Rather than fixed support/resistance lines, ORB Fusion colors candles based on their [b>relationship to ORB : [b>Three Zones: [/b> 1. Inside ORB (Blue Boxes): [/b> [b>Calculation: • Darker blue: Near extremes of ORB (potential breakout imminent) • Lighter blue: Near ORB mid (consolidation) [b>Trading: [/b> Coiled spring—await breakout. [b>2. Above ORB (Green Boxes): [b>Calculation: 3. Below ORB (Red Boxes): Mirror of above ORB logic. [b>Special Contexts: [/b> [b>Breakout Bar (Darkest Green/Red): [/b> The specific bar where breakout occurs gets maximum color intensity regardless of distance. This highlights the pivotal moment. [b>Failed Breakout Bar (Orange/Warning): [/b> When failed breakout is confirmed, that bar gets orange/warning color. Visual alert: "reversal opportunity here." [b>Near Extension (Cyan/Magenta Tint): [/b> When price is within 0.5 ATR of an extension level, candle gets tinted cyan (bull) or magenta (bear). Indicates "target approaching—prepare to take profit." [b>Why Visual Context? [/b> Traditional indicators show lines. ORB Fusion shows [b>context-aware momentum [/b>. Glance at chart: • Lots of blue? Consolidation day (fade extremes). • Progressive green? Trend day (follow). • Green then orange? Failed breakout (reversal setup). This visual language communicates market state instantly—no interpretation needed. 🎯 TRADE SETUP GENERATION & GRADING [/b> [b>Algorithmic Setup Detection: [/b> ORB Fusion continuously evaluates market state and generates current best trade setup with: • Action (LONG / SHORT / FADE HIGH / FADE LOW / WAIT) • Entry price • Stop loss • Three targets • Risk:Reward ratio • Confidence score (0-100) • Grade (A+ to D) [b>Setup Types: [/b> [b>1.

[b>Day Type Adaptation: [/b> Create rules for different day types: Trend Days: • Take ALL breakout signals (A/B/C grades) • Hold for 2.0x extension minimum • Trail stops aggressively (1.0 ATR trail) • DON'T fade—reversals unlikely Rotation Days: • ONLY take failed breakout reversals • Ignore initial breakout signals (likely to fail) • Take profits quickly (0.5x extension) • Focus on fade setups (Fade High/Fade Low) Normal Days: • Take A/A+ breakout signals only • Take ALL failed breakout reversals (high probability) • Target 1.0-1.5x extensions • Partial profit-taking at extensions Time-of-Day Rules: [/b> Breakouts at different times have different probabilities: 10:00-10:30 AM (Early Breakout): • ORB just completed • Fresh breakout • Probability: Moderate (50-55% reach 1.0x) • Strategy: Conservative position sizing 10:30-12:00 PM (Mid-Morning): • Momentum established • Volume still healthy • Probability: High (60-65% reach 1.0x) • Strategy: Standard position sizing 12:00-2:00 PM (Lunch Doldrums): • Volume dries up • Whipsaw risk increases • Probability: Low (40-45% reach 1.0x) • Strategy: Avoid new entries OR reduce size 50% 2:00-4:00 PM (Afternoon Session): • Late-day positioning • EOD squeezes possible • Probability: Moderate-High (55-60%) • Strategy: Watch for IB break—if trending all day, follow [b>Phase 4: Live Micro-Sizing (Month 2) [/b> [b>Goal: [/b> Validate paper trading results with minimal risk [b>Setup: [/b> • 10-20% of intended full position size • Take ONLY A+ and A grade setups • Follow stop loss and targets religiously [b>Execution: [/b> • Execute from alerts OR from dashboard setup box • Entry: Close of signal bar OR next bar market order • Stop: Use exact stop from setup (don't widen) • Targets: Scale out at T1/T2/T3 as indicated [b>Tracking: [/b> • Log every trade: Entry, Exit, Grade, Outcome, Day Type • Calculate: Win rate, Average R-multiple, Max consecutive losses • Compare to paper trading results (should be within 15%) [b>Red Flags: [/b> • Win rate <45%: System not suitable for this instrument/timeframe • Major divergence from paper trading: Execution issues (slippage, late entries, emotional exits) • Max consecutive losses >8: Hitting rough patch OR market regime changed [b>Phase 5: Scaling Up (Months 3-6) [b>Goal: [/b> Gradually increase to full position size [b>Progression: [/b> • Month 3: 25-40% size (if micro-sizing profitable) • Month 4: 40-60% size • Month 5: 60-80% size • Month 6: 80-100% size [b>Milestones Required to Scale Up: [/b> • Minimum 30 trades at current size • Win rate ≥48% • Profit factor ≥1.2 • Max drawdown <20% • Emotional control (no revenge trading, no FOMO) [b>Advanced Techniques: [b>Multi-Timeframe ORB: Assumes first 30-60 minutes establish value. Violation: Market opens after major news, price discovery continues for hours (opening range meaningless). 2. [b>Volume Indicates Conviction: ES, NQ, RTY, SPY, QQQ—high liquidity, clean ORB formation, reliable extensions • [b>Large-Cap Stocks: AAPL, MSFT, TSLA, NVDA (>$5B market cap, >5M daily volume) • [b>Liquid Futures: CL (crude oil), GC (gold), 6E (EUR/USD), ZB (bonds)—24hr markets benefit from session ORBs • [b>Major Forex Pairs: [/b> EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY—London/NY session ORBs work well [b>Performs Poorly On: [/b> • [b>Illiquid Stocks: <$1M daily volume, wide spreads, gappy price action • [b>Penny Stocks: [/b> Manipulated, pump-and-dump, no real price discovery • [b>Low-Volume ETFs: Exotic sector ETFs, leveraged products with thin volume • [b>Crypto on Sketchy Exchanges: Wash trading, spoofing invalidates volume analysis • [b>Earnings Days: [/b> ORB completes before earnings release, then completely resets (useless) • Binary Event Days: FDA approvals, court rulings—discontinuous price action [b>Known Weaknesses: [/b> • [b>Slow Starts: ORB doesn't complete until 10:00 AM (30-min ORB). Early morning traders have no signals for 30 minutes. Consider using 15-minute ORB if this is problematic. • [b>Failure Detection Lag: [/b> Failed breakout requires 3+ bars to confirm. By the time system signals reversal, price may have already moved significantly back inside range. Manual traders watching in real-time can enter earlier. • [b>Extension Overshoot: [/b> System projects extensions mathematically (1.5x, 2.0x, etc.). Actual moves may stop short (1.3x) or overshoot (2.2x). Extensions are targets, not magnets. • [b>Day Type Misclassification: [/b> Early in session, day type is "Developing." By the time it's classified definitively (often 11:00 AM+), half the day is over. Strategy adjustments happen late. • [b>Gap Assumptions: [/b> System assumes gaps want to fill. Strong trend days never fill gaps (gap becomes support/resistance forever). Blindly trading toward gaps can backfire on trend days. • [b>Volume Data Quality: Forex doesn't have centralized volume (uses tick volume as proxy—less reliable). Crypto volume is often fake (wash trading). Volume confirmation less effective on these instruments. • [b>Multi-Session Complexity: [/b> When using Asian/London/NY ORBs simultaneously, chart becomes cluttered. Requires discipline to focus on relevant session for current time. [b>Risk Factors: [/b> • [b>Opening Gaps: Large gaps (>2%) can create distorted ORBs. Opening range might be unusually wide or narrow, making extensions unreliable. • [b>Low Volatility Environments:[/b> When VIX <12, opening ranges can be tiny (0.2-0.3%). Extensions are equally tiny. Profit targets don't justify commission/slippage. • [b>High Volatility Environments:[/b> When VIX >30, opening ranges are huge (2-3%+). Extensions project unrealistic targets. Failed breakouts happen faster (volatility whipsaw). • [b>Algorithm Dominance:[/b> In heavily algorithmic markets (ES during overnight session), ORB levels can be manipulated—algos pin price to ORB high/low intentionally. Breakouts become stop-runs rather than genuine directional moves. [b>⚠️ RISK DISCLOSURE[/b> Trading futures, stocks, options, forex, and cryptocurrencies involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Opening Range Breakout strategies, while based on sound market structure principles, do not guarantee profits and can result in significant losses. The ORB Fusion indicator implements professional trading concepts including Opening Range theory, Market Profile Initial Balance analysis, Fibonacci extensions, and failed breakout reversal logic. These methodologies have theoretical foundations but past performance—whether backtested or live—is not indicative of future results. Opening Range theory assumes the first 30-60 minutes of trading establish a meaningful value area and that breakouts from this range signal directional conviction. This assumption may not hold during: • Major news events (FOMC, NFP, earnings surprises) • Market structure changes (circuit breakers, trading halts) • Low liquidity periods (holidays, early closures) • Algorithmic manipulation or spoofing Failed breakout detection relies on patterns of trapped participant behavior. While historically these patterns have shown statistical edges, market conditions change. Institutional algorithms, changing market structure, or regime shifts can reduce or eliminate edges that existed historically. Initial Balance classification (trend day vs rotation day vs normal day) is a heuristic framework, not a deterministic prediction. Day type can change mid-session. Early classification may prove incorrect as the day develops. Extension projections (1.272x, 1.5x, 1.618x, 2.0x, etc.) are probabilistic targets derived from Fibonacci ratios and empirical market behavior. They are not "support and resistance levels" that price must reach or respect. Markets can stop short of extensions, overshoot them, or ignore them entirely. Volume confirmation assumes high volume indicates institutional participation and conviction. In algorithmic markets, volume can be artificially high (HFT activity) or artificially low (dark pools, internalization). Volume is a proxy, not a guarantee of conviction. LTF precision sampling improves ORB accuracy by using 1-minute bars but introduces additional data dependencies. If 1-minute data is unavailable, inaccurate, or delayed, ORB calculations will be incorrect. The grading system (A+/A/B+/B/C/D) and confidence scores aggregate multiple factors (volume, VWAP, day type, IB expansion, gap context) into a single assessment. This is a mechanical calculation, not artificial intelligence. The system cannot adapt to unprecedented market conditions or events outside its programmed logic. Real trading involves slippage, commissions, latency, partial fills, and rejected orders not present in indicator calculations. ORB Fusion generates signals at bar close; actual fills occur with delay. Opening range forms during highest volatility (first 30 minutes)—spreads widen, slippage increases. Execution quality significantly impacts realized results. Statistics tracking (win rates, extension levels reached, day type distribution) is based on historical bars in your lookback window. If lookback is small (<50 bars) or market regime changed, statistics may not represent future probabilities. Users must independently validate system performance on their specific instruments, timeframes, and broker execution environment. Paper trade extensively (100+ trades minimum) before risking capital. Start with micro position sizing (5-10% of intended size) for 50+ trades to validate execution quality matches expectations. Never risk more than you can afford to lose completely. Use proper position sizing (0.5-2% risk per trade maximum). Implement stop losses on every single trade without exception. Understand that most retail traders lose money—sophisticated indicators do not change this fundamental reality. They systematize analysis but cannot eliminate risk. The developer makes no warranties regarding profitability, suitability, accuracy, reliability, or fitness for any purpose. Users assume full responsibility for all trading decisions, parameter selections, risk management, and outcomes. By using this indicator, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and accepted these risk disclosures and limitations, and you accept full responsibility for all trading activity and potential losses. [b>═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════[/b> [b>CLOSING STATEMENT[/b> [b>═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════[/b> Opening Range Breakout is not a trick. It's a framework. The first 30-60 minutes reveal where participants believe value lies. Breakouts signal directional conviction. Failures signal trapped participants. Extensions define profit targets. Day types dictate strategy. Failed breakouts create the highest-probability reversals. ORB Fusion doesn't predict the future—it identifies [b>structure[/b>, detects [b>breakouts[/b>, recognizes [b>failures[/b>, and generates [b>probabilistic trade plans[/b> with defined risk and reward. The edge is not in the opening range itself. The edge is in recognizing when the market respects structure (follow breakouts) versus when it violates structure (fade breakouts). The edge is in detecting failures faster than discretionary traders. The edge is in systematic classification that prevents catastrophic errors—like fading a trend day or holding through rotation. Most indicators draw lines. ORB Fusion implements a complete institutional trading methodology: Opening Range theory, Market Profile classification, failed breakout intelligence, Fibonacci projections, volume confirmation, gap psychology, and real-time performance tracking. Whether you're a beginner learning market structure or a professional seeking systematic ORB implementation, this system provides the framework. "The market's first word is its opening range. Everything after is commentary." — ORB Fusion
