Refined SMA/EMA Crossover with Ichimoku and 200 SMA FilterYour **Refined SMA/EMA Crossover with Ichimoku and 200 SMA Filter** strategy is a multi-faceted technical trading strategy that combines several key technical indicators to refine entry and exit points for trades. Here's a breakdown of the components and how they work together:
### 1. **SMA/EMA Crossover**
- **Simple Moving Average (SMA) & Exponential Moving Average (EMA) Crossover**:
- The core idea behind the crossover strategy is to use the relationship between two moving averages to generate buy or sell signals.
- **SMA** (Simple Moving Average) gives an average of past prices over a set period.
- **EMA** (Exponential Moving Average) places more weight on recent prices, making it more responsive to price movements.
- A **bullish crossover** occurs when a shorter period moving average (such as a 50-period EMA) crosses above a longer period moving average (such as a 200-period SMA), signaling a potential buy.
- A **bearish crossover** occurs when a shorter period moving average crosses below the longer period moving average, signaling a potential sell.
### 2. **Ichimoku Cloud**
- The **Ichimoku Cloud** is a versatile indicator that provides insight into trend direction, support and resistance levels, and momentum.
- **Cloud (Kumo)**: The space between the Senkou Span A and Senkou Span B lines. It helps identify whether the market is in an uptrend, downtrend, or consolidation.
- **Tenkan-sen** (Conversion Line) and **Kijun-sen** (Base Line): These lines are used for additional confirmation of trend direction.
- **Chikou Span**: A lagging line that is used to confirm the trend.
- The general trading rules based on the Ichimoku Cloud are:
- **Bullish Signal**: When the price is above the cloud and the Tenkan-sen crosses above the Kijun-sen.
- **Bearish Signal**: When the price is below the cloud and the Tenkan-sen crosses below the Kijun-sen.
### 3. **200 SMA Filter**
- The **200 SMA Filter** serves as a long-term trend filter.
- When the price is **above the 200 SMA**, it signals a long-term bullish trend, and you only look for buying opportunities.
- When the price is **below the 200 SMA**, it signals a long-term bearish trend, and you only look for selling opportunities.
- This filter helps to avoid counter-trend trades, aligning your positions with the broader market trend.
### **How the Strategy Works Together**
- **Trade Setup (Long Position)**
1. The **200 SMA Filter** must confirm an **uptrend** by ensuring that the price is above the 200 SMA.
2. A **bullish crossover** (e.g., the 50 EMA crossing above the 200 SMA) occurs.
3. **Ichimoku Cloud** confirms a bullish trend, with the price above the cloud and the Tenkan-sen crossing above the Kijun-sen.
4. You enter a **long trade** with this confluence of signals.
- **Trade Setup (Short Position)**
1. The **200 SMA Filter** must confirm a **downtrend** by ensuring the price is below the 200 SMA.
2. A **bearish crossover** (e.g., the 50 EMA crossing below the 200 SMA) occurs.
3. **Ichimoku Cloud** confirms a bearish trend, with the price below the cloud and the Tenkan-sen crossing below the Kijun-sen.
4. You enter a **short trade** with this confluence of signals.
### **Exit Strategy**
- Exits can be determined based on any of the following:
- **SMA/EMA crossover reversal**: Exit when the shorter-term moving average crosses back below the longer-term moving average for a long position or crosses above for a short position.
- **Ichimoku Cloud reversal**: If the price breaks through the cloud or the Tenkan-sen and Kijun-sen lines cross in the opposite direction.
- **Profit target or stop loss**: Setting predefined profit targets or using a trailing stop to lock in profits as the trade moves in your favor.
Summary of the Strategy
This strategy is designed to identify strong trends and avoid false signals by combining:
SMA/EMA crossovers for immediate market direction signals.
Ichimoku Cloud for confirming the strength and trend direction.
A 200
SMA filter to ensure trades align with the long-term trend.
By using these multiple indicators together, the strategy aims to refine entry and exit points, minimize risk, and increase the likelihood of successful trades.
G&S SMT### Description of the Pine Script
This Pine Script is designed to identify **Smart Money Technique (SMT)** setups between **Gold (GC1!)** and **Silver (SI1!) Futures** on a **15-minute timeframe**. It specifically looks for divergences between the price movements of Gold and Silver over the last 4 candles and compares it with the next candle's price movement. The script provides **Bullish** and **Bearish** signals for SMT during a specified time range of **8:45 AM EST to 10:30 AM EST**.
### Key Features of the Script:
1. **Futures Symbols**:
- The script uses **Gold Futures (GC1!)** and **Silver Futures (SI1!)** on a 15-minute timeframe to monitor their price movements.
2. **Time Range Filtering**:
- The signals are only active between **8:45 AM EST and 10:30 AM EST**, ensuring that the script only signals within the most relevant trading hours for your strategy.
3. **SMT Calculation (Last 4 Candles vs Next Candle)**:
- **Gold and Silver Price Change Calculation**: The script compares the price changes of **Gold** and **Silver** over the **last 4 candles** and then compares them with the price movement of the **next candle**:
- **Bullish SMT**: Occurs when Gold shows an increase in the last 4 candles while Silver shows a decrease, and both Gold and Silver show an increase in the next candle.
- **Bearish SMT**: Occurs when Gold shows a decrease in the last 4 candles while Silver shows an increase, and both Gold and Silver show a decrease in the next candle.
4. **Bullish and Bearish Signals**:
- **Bullish SMT Signal**: The script will plot a **green** arrow below the bar when a Bullish SMT setup is identified.
- **Bearish SMT Signal**: A **red** arrow above the bar is plotted when a Bearish SMT setup is identified.
5. **Gold and Silver Difference Plot**:
- The difference between the prices of **Gold** and **Silver** is plotted as a **blue line**, giving a visual representation of the relationship between the two assets. When the difference line moves significantly, it can indicate a potential divergence or convergence in the prices of Gold and Silver.
### Script Logic Breakdown:
1. **Price Change for Last 4 Candles**:
- The script calculates the price change for Gold and Silver from the 4th-to-last candle to the last candle.
- `gold_change_last4` and `silver_change_last4` calculate these price differences.
2. **Price Change for Next Candle**:
- It then calculates the price change from the last candle to the next candle.
- `gold_change_next` and `silver_change_next` calculate these price differences.
3. **Bullish SMT Condition**:
- If Gold increased while Silver decreased in the last 4 candles, and both Gold and Silver show an increase in the next candle, it indicates a **Bullish SMT**.
4. **Bearish SMT Condition**:
- If Gold decreased while Silver increased in the last 4 candles, and both Gold and Silver show a decrease in the next candle, it indicates a **Bearish SMT**.
5. **Time Filter**:
- Signals are only plotted when the current time is between **8:45 AM EST and 10:30 AM EST** to match your preferred trading hours.
### Visualization:
- **Bullish Signals**: Plotted as **green arrows** below the bars when a Bullish SMT setup is identified.
- **Bearish Signals**: Plotted as **red arrows** above the bars when a Bearish SMT setup is identified.
- **Gold - Silver Difference**: A **blue line** is plotted to show the price difference between Gold and Silver, helping visualize any divergence.
### How It Helps:
- **Divergence Identification**: This script highlights potential divergences between Gold and Silver Futures, which can provide insights into market sentiment and smart money movements.
- **Focus on Relevant Time Frame**: By filtering signals between 8:45 AM EST and 10:30 AM EST, you are focusing on a timeframe that can be more beneficial for trading.
- **Visual Clarity**: The arrows and the price difference line provide clear signals and a visual representation of the relationship between Gold and Silver, helping you make informed trading decisions.
This script is an automated approach to detecting **SMT setups** and helping traders recognize when Gold and Silver might be signaling a bullish or bearish move based on their divergence patterns.

Dual Zigzag [Trendoscope®]🎲 Dual Zigzag indicator is built on recursive zigzag algorithm. It is very similar to other zigzag indicators published by us and other authors. However, the key point here is, the indicator draws zigzag on both price and any other plot based indicator on separate layouts.
Before we get into the indicator, here are some brief descriptions of the underlying concepts and key terminologies
🎯 Zigzag
Zigzag indicator breaks down price or any input series into a series of Pivot Highs and Pivot Lows alternating between each other. Zigzags though shows pivot high and lows, should not be used for buying at low and selling at high. The main application of zigzag indicator is for the visualisation of market structure and this can be used as basic building block for any pattern recognition algorithms.
🎯 Recursive Zigzag Algorithm
Recursive zigzag algorithm builds zigzag on multiple levels and each level of zigzag is based on the previous level pivots. The level zero zigzag is built on price. However, for level 1, instead of price level 0 zigzag pivots are used. Similarly for level 2, level 1 zigzag pivots are used as base.
🎲 Components Dual Zigzag Indicator
Here are the components of Dual zigzag indicator
Built in Oscillator - Indicator has built in oscillator options for plotting RSI (Relative Strength Index), MFI (Money Flow Index), cci (Commodity Channel Index) , CMO (Chande Momentum Oscillator), COG (Center of Gravity), and ROC (Rate of Change). Apart from the given built in oscillators, users can also use a custom external output as base. The oscillators are not printed on the price pane. But, printed on a separate indicator overlay.
Zigzag On Oscillator - Recursive zigzag is calculated and printed on the oscillator series. Each pivot high and pivot low also prints a label having the retracement ratios, and price levels at those points. Zigzag on the oscillator is also printed on the indicator overlay pane.
Zigzag on Price - Recursive zigzag calculated based on price and printed on the price pane. This is made possible by using force_overlay option present in the drawing objects. At each zigzag pivot levels, the label having price retracement ratios, and oscillator values are printed.
It is called dual zigzag because, the indicator calculates the zigzag on both price and oscillator series of values and prints them separately on different panes on the chart.
🎲 Indicator Settings
Settings include
Theme display settings to get the right colour combination to match the background.
Zigzag settings to be used for zigzag calculation and display
Oscillator settings to chose the oscillator to be used as base for 2nd zigzag
🎲 Applications
Useful in spotting divergences with both indicator and price having their own zigzag to highlight pivots
Spotting patterns in indicators/oscillators and correlate them with the patterns on price
🎲 Using External Input
If users want to use an external indicator such as OBV instead of the built in oscillators, then can do so by using the custom option.
Here is how this can be done.
Step1. Add both Dual Zigzag and the intended indicator (in this case OBV) on the chart. Notice that both OBV and Dual zigzag appear on different panes.
Step2. Edit the indicator settings of Dual zigzag and set custom indicator by selecting "custom" as oscillator name and then by setting the custom external indicator name and input.
Step 3. You would notice that the zigzag in Dual Zigzag indictor pane is already showing the zigzag pivots based on the OBV indicator and the price pivots display obv values at the pivot points. We can leave this as is.
Step 4. As an additional step, you can also merge the OBV pane and the Dual zigzag indicator pane into one by going into OBV settings and moving the indicator to above pane. Merge the scales so that there is no two scales on the same pane and the entire scale appear on the right.
At the end, you should see two panes - one with price and other with OBV and both having their zigzag plotted.

BRT Cluster VolumeTitle and Purpose
BRT Cluster Volume is a powerful market analysis tool designed to identify key support and resistance levels, cluster volumes, and breakout signals. This script is highly beneficial for traders who aim to gain deeper insights into market trends and pinpoint zones of interest for buyers and sellers.
Key Features
1. Support and Resistance Levels:
- The script automatically detects chart extremums by analyzing a specified number of bars on the left and right to form levels. This approach effectively identifies local highs and lows.
- The uniqueness of this implementation lies in its dynamic data processing. For each extremum, the "channel width" is calculated, allowing insignificant levels to be filtered out based on a user-defined minimum width. This method eliminates noise and ensures focus on critical levels.
- Extremum lines can be extended to the right (when enabled), allowing traders to track current price movements relative to historical levels.
2. Cluster Volume:
- The cluster analysis is based on lower timeframe data, providing precise identification of key zones of market participant activity. The script dynamically requests close prices and volumes from lower timeframes, calculates the average volume, and identifies levels where volumes exceed a defined threshold.
- The visualization of cluster volumes is unique: volumes exceeding the threshold are displayed as candles with customizable colors and markers. These indicators help traders identify zones of significant interest.
- Cluster volume is only displayed when it interacts with support or resistance levels, ensuring that the visualization remains precise and relevant for market analysis.
3. Breakout Signals:
- The script evaluates "breakout strength" for each breakout of support or resistance levels by comparing the current price with the level. This helps filter false breakouts and focus on significant price movements.
- Traders can select the source for breakout signals (close price or high/low), offering flexibility for various trading styles and strategies.
- By incorporating the concept of "maximum breakout strength," the script highlights only meaningful breakouts, ignoring minor fluctuations.
4. Integration of Trading Sessions:
- Extremum levels for major trading sessions (Asia, Europe, USA) are identified and labeled on the chart. This allows traders to see when significant price levels were formed during the day.
- The script uses timestamps to automatically detect session times, ensuring accuracy and minimizing manual adjustments.
5. Dynamic Data Updates:
- The script dynamically updates support and resistance levels in real time as new data becomes available. This feature is crucial for traders working in fast-moving markets.
- Outdated information (such as obsolete levels) is automatically removed to keep the chart clean and focused on relevant data.
6. Visualization of Activity Zones:
- Trend direction is visualized using color-coded candles based on cluster volumes. For instance, candles with volumes exceeding the average are highlighted with specific colors, helping traders quickly identify areas of heightened activity.
- The unique aspect of this visualization is that cluster volumes appear only in zones where they interact with breakout levels, providing an intuitive and streamlined presentation of critical data.
Usage
- Support and Resistance: Adjust the "Left Bars" and "Right Bars" settings to determine extremums. Use the "Channel Min Width" setting to filter out insignificant levels.
- Cluster Volume: Customize the analysis period and volume threshold to identify high-activity zones. Enable breakout clusters to see how volumes interact with breakouts.
- Session Extremums: Highlight significant levels for Asia, Europe, and US trading sessions to gain insights into market dynamics across different time zones.
- Breakout Signals: Configure the breakout strength and source (close or high/low) for precise signal detection.
Parameter Details

This script combines advanced data processing logic, dynamic level adjustments, and unique visualization approaches, making it an indispensable tool for market analysis and trading decision-making.
Earnings Gap UpsBased on research conducted by John Pocorobba and Jason Thompson, the Earnings Gap Ups Indicator is designed to identify three types of earnings gaps, key levels, and the "alpha window"—a period when stocks often outperform following a gap. These gaps are frequently observed in high-performing stocks.
What is an Earnings Gap?
An earnings gap occurs when a stock's price makes a significant jump, after the company reports earnings signifying the street (institutions) were caught off guard.
The three different types of gaps are as follows: [/b
PEG (Power Earnings Gap)
Price gain of 10% or more
Volume is greater than 200% above the 50-day average
EPS surprise of at least 20%
Monster Gap
Price gain of 20% or more
Volume is greater than 300% above the 50-day average
No fundamental requirement
Monster Peg
Price Gain of 20% or more
Volume is greater than 300% above the 50-day average
EPS surprise of at least 20%
Key Levels and the Alpha Window
In addition to spotting these gaps, the indicator marks key levels on the chart and extends them through the alpha window, which represents the time period when the stock tends to outperform after the gap.
Key levels include:
High volume close: The closing price on a day with unusually high trading volume
High volume close minus 5%: A potential support level below the high volume close
Gap day high: The highest price reached on the gap day
Gap day low: The lowest price reached on the gap day
By understanding and tracking these gaps and levels, traders can map out a playbook for trading earnings gaps.
Weekly Covered Calls Strategy with IV & Delta LogicWhat Does the Indicator Do?
this is interactive you must use it with your options chain to input data based on the contract you want to trade.
Visualize three strike price levels for covered calls based on:
Aggressive (closest to price, riskier).
Moderate (mid-range, balanced).
Low Delta (farthest, safer).
Incorporate Implied Volatility (IV) from the options chain to make strike predictions more realistic and aligned with market sentiment. Adjust the risk tolerance by modifying Delta inputs and IV values. Risk is defined for example .30 delta means 30% chance of your shares being assigned. If you want to generate steady income with your shares you might want to lower the risk of them being assigned to .05 or 5% etc.
How to Use the Indicator with the Options Chain
Start with the Options Chain:
Look for the following data points from your options chain:
Implied Volatility (IV Mid): Average IV for a particular strike price.
Delta:
~0.30 Delta: Closest strike (Aggressive).
~0.15–0.20 Delta: Mid-range strike (Moderate).
~0.05–0.10 Delta: Far OTM, safer (Low Delta).
Strike Price: Identify strike prices for the desired Deltas.
Open Interest: Check liquidity; higher OI ensures tighter spreads.
Input IV into the Indicator:
Enter the IV Mid value (e.g., 0.70 for 70%) from the options chain into the Implied Volatility field of the indicator.
Adjust Delta Inputs Based on Risk Tolerance:
Aggressive Delta: Increase if you want strikes closer to the current price (riskier, higher premium).
Default: 0.2 (20% chance of shares being assigned).
Moderate Delta: Balanced risk/reward.
Default: 0.12 (12%)
Low Delta: Decrease for safer, farther OTM strikes.
Default: 0.05 (5%)
Visualize the Chart:
Once inputs are updated:
Red Line: Aggressive Strike (closest, riskiest, higher premium).
Blue Line: Moderate Strike (mid-range).
Green Line: Low Delta Strike (farthest, safer).
Step-by-Step Workflow Example
Open the options chain and note:
Implied Volatility (IV Mid): Example 71.5% → input as 0.715.
Delta for desired strikes:
Aggressive: 0.30 Delta → Closest strike ~ $455.
Moderate: 0.15 Delta → Mid-range strike ~ $470.
Low Delta: 0.05 Delta → Farther strike ~ $505.
Open the indicator and adjust:
IV Mid: Enter 0.715.
Aggressive Delta: Leave at 0.12 (or adjust to bring strikes closer).
Moderate Delta: Leave at 0.18.
Low Delta: Adjust to 0.25 for safer, farther strikes.
View the chart:
Compare the indicator's strikes (red, blue, green) with actual options chain strikes.
Use the visualization to: Validate the risk/reward for each strike.
Align strikes with technical trends, support/resistance.
Adjusting Inputs Based on Risk Tolerance
Higher Risk: Increase Aggressive Delta (e.g., 0.15) for closer strikes.
Use higher IV values for volatile stocks.
Moderate Risk: Use default values (0.12–0.18 Delta).
Balance premiums and probability.
Lower Risk: Increase Low Delta (e.g., 0.30) for farther, safer strikes.
Focus on higher IV stocks with good open interest.
Key Benefits
Simplifies Strike Selection: Visualizes the three risk levels directly on the chart.
Aligns with Market Sentiment: Incorporates IV for realistic forecasts.
Customizable for Risk: Adjust inputs to match personal risk tolerance.
By combining the options chain (IV, Delta, and liquidity) with the technical chart, you get a powerful, visually intuitive tool for covered call strategies.
Market Structure V3Indicator Description:
The Market Structure indicator is a unique and innovative tool for identifying and visualizing key market structures based on dynamic swing highs and lows. This indicator stands apart from similar tools by utilizing a distinct methodology for updating levels and identifying trends, ensuring precision and flexibility in market analysis.
Key Features of Uniqueness:
1. No Fixed Lookback Periods for Extremum Detection:
- Unlike most indicators that rely on a predefined number of candles (lookback period) to determine highs or lows, this script dynamically updates levels based solely on price action.
- A new high (resistance) or low (support) is confirmed only when the closing price breaks above the previous high or below the previous low, representing the last significant extremums .
- This approach eliminates arbitrary lookback-based restrictions, allowing the indicator to adapt seamlessly to different market conditions and timeframes.
2. Dynamic Level Adjustments:
- Levels are recalculated and adjusted in real time as new price action unfolds, providing traders with highly accurate and relevant support and resistance levels.
- The upper and lower bounds serve as dynamic anchors for trend analysis, updating only when a confirmed breakout occurs.
3. Fractal and Trend-Driven Logic:
- The script inherently respects the fractal nature of price movements by focusing on confirmed breakouts of previous significant extremums , avoiding reliance on shorter-term noise.
- This makes the indicator particularly effective for identifying true trend reversals and continuations.
4. Visual Clarity and Structure Mapping:
- The indicator labels the following structural points directly on the chart:
- **Higher Highs (HH)** for uptrend confirmation.
- **Lower Highs (LH)** for potential trend weakening.
- **Lower Lows (LL)** for downtrend confirmation.
- **Higher Lows (HL)** for potential trend reversals.
- Levels and labels are updated dynamically and accurately reflect the market's structural evolution.
5. Clean and Noise-Free Analysis:
- The absence of arbitrary inputs (e.g., lookback periods) ensures the indicator focuses only on meaningful price action, reducing false signals.
- Works seamlessly across all instruments and timeframes without requiring constant parameter adjustments.
6. Highly Adaptable:
- Suitable for any financial market, including stocks, forex, and cryptocurrencies.
- Performs equally well on all timeframes, from intraday to long-term analysis.
How the Indicator Works:
1. Dynamic Level Updates :
- The indicator evaluates price action in real time and identifies significant levels based on breakouts above previous highs or below previous lows.
- Upper Bound (Resistance) : Updated only when the closing price exceeds the previous significant high.
- Lower Bound (Support) : Updated only when the closing price falls below the previous significant low.
2. Trend Determination:
- Identifies and marks structural points (HH, LH, LL, HL) as trends develop.
- Swing points are updated dynamically without relying on fixed lookback parameters, ensuring that levels reflect the true market structure.
3. Confirmation Logic:
- The script uses a user-configurable parameter `Extremum confirmation bars count` to refine the process of confirming significant swing points.
- This ensures flexibility in adapting to different market conditions while maintaining precision in level detection.
Unique Advantages Over Similar Indicators:
1. No Arbitrary Inputs:
- Unlike other indicators that require users to set the number of candles for extremum detection, this script eliminates the need for such settings, relying solely on actual price breakouts.
2. Dynamic Real-Time Adjustments:
- The logic of level updates is event-driven (based on closing prices crossing key levels), making it more reactive and precise compared to static lookback-based calculations.
3. Enhanced Structural Clarity:
- Focuses exclusively on confirmed significant levels , avoiding clutter and ambiguity often seen in lookback-based indicators.
4. Fractal and Self-Adaptive Nature:
- The script inherently respects market fractality, making it effective across all timeframes and market conditions.
Practical Applications:
- Trend Identification:
Helps identify whether the market is in an uptrend, downtrend, or consolidation phase.
- Entry and Exit Points:
Use swing highs and lows as references for entering or exiting positions.
- Support and Resistance Levels:
Dynamic levels provide actionable areas for placing stop-losses and take-profits.
Input Parameters:
- Extremum Confirmation Bars Count:
Adjusts the sensitivity of extremum detection. The higher the value, the more conservative the indicator becomes in confirming levels. Default is `3`.
Chart Setup and Usage Notes:
1. Clean Visualization:
- Ensure a clean chart for better visibility of structural points and levels.
- Do not overlay with additional indicators unless explicitly required.
2. User Guidance:
- Combine this indicator with volume analysis or other confirmation tools to enhance decision-making.

Weekly Covered Calls StrategyWhat Does This Indicator Do?
This indicator is a tool to help you pick strike prices for your weekly covered call options strategy. It does two things:
Plots two suggested strike prices on your chart:
Aggressive Strike (red label): A strike price closer to the current price, offering higher premiums but with a higher chance of assignment.
Moderate Strike (blue label): A strike price further from the current price, offering lower premiums but with a lower chance of assignment.
Uses technical analysis (volatility) to calculate these strike prices dynamically. It adjusts them based on the market's volatility and your chosen risk settings.
How It Works:
The indicator uses the following inputs to determine the strike prices:
ATR (Average True Range):
This measures the stock's volatility (how much the stock moves up or down over a given period).
A higher ATR = more volatile stock = wider range for strike prices.
Delta Adjustments:
The default settings use Delta values of 0.12 (Aggressive) and 0.18 (Moderate).
Delta is a concept in options trading that estimates the likelihood of the option being "in the money" (ITM) by expiration.
A 0.12 Delta = 12% chance of assignment (Aggressive)
A 0.18 Delta = 18% chance of assignment (Moderate)
Volatility Factor:
This multiplies the ATR by a factor (default is 1.5) to estimate the expected price move and adjust strike prices accordingly.
How to Use the Indicator:
Step 1: Understand the Labels
Red Label (Aggressive Strike):
Closer to the current stock price.
You’ll collect higher premiums because the strike price is riskier (closer to being ITM).
Best for traders comfortable with a higher risk of assignment.
Blue Label (Moderate Strike):
Further from the current stock price.
You’ll collect lower premiums because the strike price is safer (further from being ITM).
Best for traders looking to avoid assignment and collect safer weekly income.
Step 2: Match It to the Options Chain
Open your options chain (like the one you see in Fidelity, TOS, or TradingView).
Look for the strike prices closest to the red (aggressive) and blue (moderate) labels plotted by the indicator.
Compare the premiums (the amount you collect for selling the call) and decide:
If you want higher income: Go with the Aggressive Strike.
If you want safety: Go with the Moderate Strike.
Step 3: Manage Your Risk and Income
Avoid Assignment:
If you do not want your shares to be called away, choose strike prices further from the current price (e.g., moderate strike).
Maximize Premiums:
If you’re okay with a chance of your shares being called away, choose the closer aggressive strike for higher premium income.
Weekly Income Goal:
Use this strategy consistently each week to collect premium income while holding your shares.
Step 4: Adjust for Your Risk Tolerance
You can adjust the Delta values (0.12 for Aggressive and 0.18 for Moderate) to suit your risk tolerance:
Lower Delta (e.g., 0.08–0.10): Safer, fewer chances of assignment, lower premiums.
Higher Delta (e.g., 0.20–0.25): Riskier, higher chances of assignment, higher premiums.
Technical Analysis Summary (What the Indicator Uses):
The indicator uses ATR (Average True Range) to measure volatility and estimate how far the price might move.
It then multiplies ATR by a Volatility Factor to calculate the strike prices.
Using the Delta Adjustment settings, it adjusts these strike prices to give you a balance between risk and reward.
Putting It All Together:
Look at the Chart: The indicator will show two lines and labels for strike prices.
Check the Options Chain: Find the closest strike prices and compare premiums.
Decide Your Strategy:
Want higher premium income? Choose the Aggressive Strike (red label).
Want lower risk of assignment? Choose the Moderate Strike (blue label).
Collect Weekly Income: Sell the call option and repeat this process weekly to generate consistent income.
Happy trading, and may your premiums roll in while your shares stay safe! 🎯📊
CandelaCharts - Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) 📝 Overview
The Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) indicator is designed to identify and highlight Swing Failure Patterns on a user’s chart. This pattern typically emerges when significant market participants generate liquidity by driving price action to key levels. An SFP occurs when the price temporarily breaks above a resistance level or below a support level, only to quickly reverse and return within the previous range. These movements are often associated with stop-loss hunting or liquidity grabs, providing traders with potential opportunities to anticipate reversals or key market turning points.
A Bullish SFP occurs when the price dips below a key support level, triggering stop-loss orders, but then swiftly reverses upward, signaling a potential upward trend or reversal.
A Bearish SFP happens when the price spikes above a key resistance level, triggering stop-losses of short positions, but then quickly reverses downward, indicating a potential bearish trend or reversal.
The indicator is a powerful tool for traders, helping to identify liquidity grabs and potential reversal points in real-time. By marking bullish and bearish Swing Failure Patterns on the chart, it provides clear visual cues for spotting market traps set by major players, enabling more informed trading decisions and improved risk management.

📒 Usage
The best approach is to combine a few complementary indicators to gain a clearer market perspective. This doesn’t mean relying on the Golden Cross, RSI divergences, SFPs, and funding rates simultaneously, but rather focusing on one or two that align well in a given scenario.
The example above demonstrates the confluence of a Bearish Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) with an RSI divergence. This combination strengthens the signal, as the Bearish SFP indicates a potential reversal after a liquidity grab, while the RSI divergence confirms weakening momentum at the key level. Together, these indicators provide a more robust setup for identifying potential market reversals with greater confidence.
🚨 Alerts
This script provides alert options for all signals.
Bearish Signal
A bearish signal is triggered when a Bearish SFP is formed.
Bullish Signal
A bullish signal is triggered when a Bullish SFP is formed.

Extended Support and Resistance LevelsIndicator: Extended Support and Resistance Levels
This Pine Script indicator dynamically calculates support and resistance levels based on recent price action and projects these levels into the future.
Support is determined by the lowest low over a user-defined period, while Resistance is defined by the highest high over the same period.
The indicator draws lines at the calculated support and resistance levels and extends them into the future, allowing traders to visualize potential future levels where price might react.
The extension of these lines helps in identifying areas where price may respect support or resistance in the upcoming bars.
The user can adjust the period for support/resistance calculation and the number of bars for projection, providing flexibility to adapt to different timeframes and market conditions.
This tool is ideal for traders looking to anticipate future key price levels based on historical price data, helping with decision-making on potential entry or exit points.
Short Term Imbalance ContinuationShort Term Imbalance Continuation
This indicator identifies short-term trading opportunities based on imbalance situations followed by consolidation.
Functionality:
The indicator looks for a specific candle formation:
1. An imbalance candle where the low is above the high of the following candle (bearish) or the high is below the low of the following candle (bullish)
2. Followed by 1-2 inside candles (close within the range of the previous candle) in the same direction
Theory:
The formation is based on two important market mechanisms:
1. Imbalance and Momentum:
- The imbalance shows a strong move with one-sided orderflow dominance
- Inside candles in the same direction confirm that the opposing side cannot take control
2. Consolidation Behavior:
- Inside candles are a classic consolidation pattern
- They show that the market is "digesting" the previous strong movement
- Consolidation within the range indicates controlled accumulation/distribution
- Particularly relevant when large market participants are building or expanding positions
- Consolidation at higher/lower levels confirms the dominance of the trend direction
Settings:
- Choice between one or two inside candles for different consolidation phases
- Option whether both inside candles must have the same direction
- Customizable colors for bullish and bearish signals
Application:
The indicator is particularly suitable for:
- Trend confirmation after strong movements
- Entry into pullbacks during trends
- Identification of continuation setups after consolidations
- Detection of accumulation/distribution phases of large market participants
Notes:
- Best used in combination with higher timeframe trend
- Particularly meaningful at important price zones
- Consolidation phases can indicate institutional interest
- The length of consolidation (one vs. two inside candles) can indicate different accumulation phases
Long Position with 1:3 Risk Reward and 20EMA CrossoverThe provided Pine Script code implements a strategy to identify long entry signals based on a 20-EMA crossover on a 5-minute timeframe. Once a buy signal is triggered, it calculates and plots the following:
Entry Price: The price at which the buy signal is generated.
Stop Loss: The low of the previous candle, acting as a risk management tool.
Take Profit: The price level calculated based on a 1:3 risk-reward ratio.
Key Points:
Buy Signal: A buy signal is generated when the current 5-minute candle closes above the 20-EMA.
Risk Management: The stop-loss is set below the entry candle to limit potential losses.
Profit Target: The take-profit is calculated based on a 1:3 risk-reward ratio, aiming for a potential profit three times the size of the risk.
Visualization: The script plots the entry price, stop-loss, and take-profit levels on the chart for visual clarity.
Remember:
Backtesting: It's crucial to backtest this strategy on historical data to evaluate its performance and optimize parameters.
Risk Management: Always use appropriate risk management techniques, such as stop-loss orders and position sizing, to protect your capital.
Market Conditions: Market conditions can change, and strategies that worked in the past may not perform as well in the future. Continuously monitor and adapt your strategy.
By understanding the core components of this script and applying sound risk management principles, you can effectively use it to identify potential long entry opportunities in the market.
Correlated Imbalance Detector# Correlated Imbalance Detector
This indicator helps traders identify strong market movements while avoiding fakeouts by detecting correlated imbalances across two trading instruments. By requiring confirmation from correlated markets like major indices (ES, NQ) or related forex pairs, it filters out potential false signals.
## What it Does
The indicator analyzes price action patterns known as 'imbalances' on two correlated instruments simultaneously. An imbalance occurs when there's a significant gap between price levels that hasn't been filled, indicating strong buying or selling pressure. By requiring both instruments to show the same pattern, it helps eliminate false breakouts and fakeouts.
### Key Features:
- Detects bullish and bearish imbalances across two correlated instruments
- Filters out fakeouts through correlation confirmation
- Uses candlestick direction for additional validation
- Simple visual signals with customizable colors
### Signals:
- Green square: Bullish imbalance detected on both instruments
- Red square: Bearish imbalance detected on both instruments
## Avoiding Fakeouts
The indicator's core strength lies in its correlation requirement:
- A signal only appears when both instruments show the same pattern
- Reduces false signals that might appear on a single instrument
- Helps validate genuine market moves through correlation
- Particularly effective in filtering out noise in choppy markets
## Index Correlation and Bias
Major indices often show strong correlation in their movements:
- ES (S&P 500 futures) and NQ (Nasdaq futures) typically move together
- When both show the same imbalance pattern, it significantly reduces the chance of a fakeout
- Use this correlation to confirm your market bias and strengthen your trading decisions
## Settings
- Correlated Symbol: Enter the symbol you want to correlate with
- Bearish Color: Customize the color for bearish signals
- Bullish Color: Customize the color for bullish signals
## Usage Tips
1. Particularly effective with correlated indices (ES/NQ)
2. Use to confirm your existing market bias
3. Best used on higher timeframes (H1 and above)
4. Wait for confirmation from both instruments to avoid fakeouts
5. Consider overall market context when interpreting signals
6. Use the absence of correlation as a warning sign for potential fakeouts
Note: This indicator is designed to help filter out false signals through correlation. It works best as part of your broader market analysis and should align with your trading bias and strategy.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):
Q1: How do I input my Buy Price and Buy Date?
The script allows you to either manually input the Buy Price and Buy Date or use the automated detection. If you choose automated detection, the script will automatically assign the buy date when the price crosses above your set Buy Price.
Q2: What is the purpose of the "Sell Rules"?
The script offers four sell strategies to help manage different types of stocks in varying phases of their lifecycle:
Ascender Rule: Targets IPO stocks showing positive momentum.
Midterm Rule: A defensive strategy for stocks in a steady uptrend.
40 Week Rule: Long-term hold strategy designed to ride stocks through extended growth.
Everest Rule: Aggressive strategy to capture profits during parabolic price moves.
Q3: What is the significance of the Green Line at Buy Price?
The Green Line represents your entry point (Buy Price) on the chart. It will appear from the buy date onwards, helping you track the performance of your stock relative to your entry.
Q4: Can I customize the Sell Strategy?
Yes! You can choose from the available Sell Rules (Ascender Rule, Midterm Rule, 40 Week Rule, Everest Rule) via an input option in the script. Each strategy has its own unique triggers based on price action, moving averages, and time-based conditions.
Q5: Does this script work for stocks and crypto?
Yes, this script is designed for both stocks and cryptocurrencies. It works on any asset where price data and timeframes are available.
Q6: How do the Weekly Moving Averages (WSMA) work in this strategy?
The script uses weekly moving averages (WSMA) to track longer-term trends. These are essential for some of the sell rules, such as the Midterm Rule and 40 Week Rule, which rely on the stock's movement relative to the 40-week moving average.
Q7: Will the script plot a Sell Signal immediately after the Buy Date?
No, sell signals will only be plotted after the Buy Date. This ensures that the sell strategy is relevant to your actual holding period and avoids premature triggers.
Q8: How do I interpret the Sell Signal?
The script will plot a Red Sell Signal above the bar when the sell conditions are met, based on the selected strategy. This indicates that it may be a good time to exit the position according to your chosen rule.
Q9: Can I use this strategy on different timeframes?
Yes, you can apply the script to any timeframe. However, some sell strategies, like the Midterm Rule and 40 Week Rule, are designed to work best with weekly data, so it's recommended to use these strategies with longer timeframes.
Q10: Does this script have any alerts?
Yes! The script supports alert conditions that will notify you when the sell conditions are met according to your selected rule. You can set up alerts to stay informed without needing to watch the chart constantly.
Q11: What if I want to disable some of the sell rules?
You can select your preferred sell rule using the "Select Sell Rule" dropdown. If you don’t want to use a particular rule, simply choose a different strategy or leave it inactive.

MCP Stop Strategy [JARUTIR]The MCP Stop Strategy is a trading tool designed to help traders lock in profits and manage risks. It is based on the concept of setting a MCP (Mental Capacity Preservation) Stop explained in the book "The Lifecycle Trade". I call it Maximum Controllable Profit Stop which helps protect profits once a stock or asset reaches a new peak. The MCP Stop is dynamically calculated based on the Buy Price and the All Time High Price (Peak Price), and is adjusted using a customizable percentage (MCP%) to retain a portion of the gains from the peak price during a drawdown.
Key Features :
MCP Stop Calculation: The script calculates the MCP Stop as:
MCP Stop = Buy Price + (Peak Price - Buy Price) x MCP%
This helps you protect a portion of your gains (defined by MCP%) as the price moves in your favor.
Flexible Buy Date Option:
You can either manually input a Buy Date or let the script automatically detect the Buy Date when the price first meets or exceeds the user-defined Buy Price.
After the Buy Date, the MCP Stop, Buy Price, and Peak Price are plotted on the chart for easy visualization.
Customizable Parameters:
Buy Price: The price at which the asset was bought.
MCP Percentage: The percentage of profit from the peak that you want to retain in case of a drawdown.
Lookback Length: The number of bars to consider when calculating the Peak Price (All Time High).
How to Use the Script :
Set the Buy Price: Enter the price at which you bought the asset.
Set the MCP%: Enter the percentage of profits you want to protect from the peak. For example, if you want to retain 10% of the gain from the peak, set this to 10.
Choose the Buy Date Method:
Automated Buy Date: The script will automatically detect the first bar where the price meets or exceeds the Buy Price.
Manual Buy Date: If you prefer to specify a particular Buy Date, input the desired date and time.
View the MCP Stop and Peak Price: After the Buy Date (either manually or automatically detected), the MCP Stop, Buy Price, and Peak Price will be plotted on the chart.
Monitor the MCP Stop Trigger: The script will alert you when the price falls below the MCP Stop, indicating a potential exit point to protect profits.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):
1. What is the MCP Stop?
The MCP Stop is a dynamic stop-loss level that adjusts based on your Buy Price and the All Time High Price (Peak Price). It protects a portion of your gains from the peak, which is defined by the MCP%. For example, if you set the MCP% to 10%, the script will retain 10% of the gains from the peak and use this as a stop-loss.
2. How does the Buy Date work?
The Buy Date is the date when you entered the position:
If you choose Automated Buy Date, the script will automatically set the Buy Date to the first bar when the price meets or exceeds the Buy Price.
If you choose Manual Buy Date, you can specify a particular date and time when you want the strategy to start calculating and plotting the MCP Stop and Peak Price.
3. What happens if the price falls below the MCP Stop?
If the price drops below the MCP Stop, the script will mark this as a potential exit point, helping you protect profits. A visual alert (MCP STOP) will be shown on the chart when the price reaches or falls below the MCP Stop.
4. Can I adjust the Lookback Length for Peak Price?
Yes, you can customize the Lookback Length (the number of bars the script considers when calculating the Peak Price) by entering a value in the input field. By default, it is set to 1000 bars, which represents a few months of historical data, but you can increase or decrease this based on your trading strategy.
5. Why would I want to use the automated Buy Date?
The Automated Buy Date is useful for traders who want the script to automatically track the Buy Date when the price first reaches or exceeds the Buy Price. This is helpful when you're unsure of the exact entry date but know the price at which you bought the asset. It simplifies the process by eliminating the need for manual input.
6. Can I use this strategy for long and short positions?
The current version of this script is designed for long positions, where you buy an asset and want to protect your profits as the price increases. If you're interested in applying it to short positions, you would need to adjust the logic accordingly (e.g., tracking the lowest price instead of the peak price).
7. Can I modify the script to fit my trading strategy?
Yes, this script is highly customizable. You can adjust parameters such as Buy Price, MCP%, and Lookback Length to suit your specific trading style. You can also tweak the visual appearance of the plotted lines and alerts.
