FVG - NibzDescription: Fair Value Gap (FVG) Indicator - Nibz
This Pine Script identifies and visualizes Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on your TradingView chart. FVGs are price inefficiencies left behind when the market moves too quickly, skipping price levels that might not be tested. These gaps often act as magnets, attracting price for potential reversals or continuations.
The script works by detecting upward (bullish) and downward (bearish) price imbalances based on specific candlestick criteria and then marks these zones on your chart using customizable shaded boxes. This tool is essential for traders looking to identify key areas of market inefficiency that could signify support/resistance levels, potential reversal zones, or areas to monitor for market rebalancing.
How It Works
1. Bullish FVG Detection
The script identifies an upward imbalance when:
The low of the candlestick two bars back is less than or equal to the open of the previous bar.
The high of the current candlestick is greater than or equal to the close of the previous bar.
When this condition is met and the size of the imbalance is greater than zero, a green box is drawn from the low of the second candlestick back to the high of the current candlestick.
2. Bearish FVG Detection
The script identifies a downward imbalance when:
The high of the candlestick two bars back is greater than or equal to the open of the previous bar.
The low of the current candlestick is less than or equal to the close of the previous bar.
When this condition is met and the size of the imbalance is greater than zero, a red box is drawn from the low of the current candlestick to the high of the second candlestick back.
Customization Options
This script is highly customizable, allowing you to tailor the appearance of the FVG boxes to suit your trading style and chart aesthetics:
Bullish FVG:
Fill color and transparency.
Border color and transparency.
Bearish FVG:
Fill color and transparency.
Border color and transparency.
The settings are user-friendly, with intuitive sliders for transparency and color pickers for customization.
How to Use the Indicator
Adding the Script:
Add the indicator to your chart, and it will automatically mark bullish (green) and bearish (red) FVGs.
Interpreting FVGs:
Bullish FVGs (green zones): These often act as support or areas of potential price rebalancing on retracement.
Bearish FVGs (red zones): These often act as resistance or areas of interest for short entries.
Trade Ideas:
Use FVG zones to confirm other trade signals or strategies.
Watch for price interaction with these zones to time entries and exits.

*This indicator is based on azmathshah's "Last Three Candles each of Two HTF".
It's a very cool indicator. thank you.
You can detect trend reversal with candlesticks.
It's MTF compatible and can display up to 2 sets of 5 candles of any time frame on the right side of the chart.
By displaying the candles of the upper time frame bars, you can check the trend change and measure the entry timing with the lower time frame bars.
There are two types of alerts.
"Liquidity Sweep": This is an alert when the upper beard (high) of ③ is touched with the next foot.
"Candle Close": An alert when the upper whisker (high) of ③ is exceeded by the closing price of the next bar (generally a strong signal)

Liquidity Engulfing Candles [upslidedown]Liquidity engulfing candles (LEC) are a variant of a common candlestick pattern: engulfing candles but with a couple extra conditions applied. These conditions expect highs/lows to be taken out in order to show a continuation or reversal signal.
Filter 1: Stop Hunt Wick Filter
This filter requires the candle to wick into the prior candles high or low ( bullish = wick below prior candle lows). This is the stop hunt.
Filter 2: Close Filter
This filter requires the candle to close above or below above the prior candle ( bullish = close above prior candle high). This is the confirmation.
This idea was introduced to me by @attrk632. Thanks, mate!
Dark Cloud Strategy This is a bearish reversal pattern formed by two candlesticks within a uptrend.
Consists of an up candlestick followed by a down candlestick which opens lower
than the prior candlestick and closes below the midrange of the prior candlestick.
It is the reverse of the Piercing Line.

Mutanabby_AI | Algo Pro Strategy# Mutanabby_AI | Algo Pro Strategy: Advanced Candlestick Pattern Trading System
## Strategy Overview
The Mutanabby_AI Algo Pro Strategy represents a systematic approach to automated trading based on advanced candlestick pattern recognition and multi-layered technical filtering. This strategy transforms traditional engulfing pattern analysis into a comprehensive trading system with sophisticated risk management and flexible position sizing capabilities.
The strategy operates on a long-only basis, entering positions when bullish engulfing patterns meet specific technical criteria and exiting when bearish engulfing patterns indicate potential trend reversals. The system incorporates multiple confirmation layers to enhance signal reliability while providing comprehensive customization options for different trading approaches and risk management preferences.
## Core Algorithm Architecture
The strategy foundation relies on bullish and bearish engulfing candlestick pattern recognition enhanced through technical analysis filtering mechanisms. Entry signals require simultaneous satisfaction of four distinct criteria: confirmed bullish engulfing pattern formation, candle stability analysis indicating decisive price action, RSI momentum confirmation below specified thresholds, and price decline verification over adjustable lookback periods.
The candle stability index measures the ratio between candlestick body size and total range including wicks, ensuring only well-formed patterns with clear directional conviction generate trading signals. This filtering mechanism eliminates indecisive market conditions where pattern reliability diminishes significantly.
RSI integration provides momentum confirmation by requiring oversold conditions before entry signal generation, ensuring alignment between pattern formation and underlying momentum characteristics. The RSI threshold remains fully adjustable to accommodate different market conditions and volatility environments.
Price decline verification examines whether current prices have decreased over a specified period, confirming that bullish engulfing patterns occur after meaningful downward movement rather than during sideways consolidation phases. This requirement enhances the probability of successful reversal pattern completion.
## Advanced Position Management System
The strategy incorporates dual position sizing methodologies to accommodate different account sizes and risk management approaches. Percentage-based position sizing calculates trade quantities as equity percentages, enabling consistent risk exposure across varying account balances and market conditions. This approach proves particularly valuable for systematic trading approaches and portfolio management applications.
Fixed quantity sizing provides precise control over trade sizes independent of account equity fluctuations, offering predictable position management for specific trading strategies or when implementing precise risk allocation models. The system enables seamless switching between sizing methods through simple configuration adjustments.
Position quantity calculations integrate seamlessly with TradingView's strategy testing framework, ensuring accurate backtesting results and realistic performance evaluation across different market conditions and time periods. The implementation maintains consistency between historical testing and live trading applications.
## Comprehensive Risk Management Framework
The strategy features dual stop loss methodologies addressing different risk management philosophies and market analysis approaches. Entry price-based stop losses calculate stop levels as fixed percentages below entry prices, providing predictable risk exposure and consistent risk-reward ratio maintenance across all trades.
The percentage-based stop loss system enables precise risk control by limiting maximum loss per trade to predetermined levels regardless of market volatility or entry timing. This approach proves essential for systematic trading strategies requiring consistent risk parameters and capital preservation during adverse market conditions.
Lowest low-based stop losses identify recent price support levels by analyzing minimum prices over adjustable lookback periods, placing stops below these technical levels with additional buffer percentages. This methodology aligns stop placement with market structure rather than arbitrary percentage calculations, potentially improving stop loss effectiveness during normal market fluctuations.
The lookback period adjustment enables optimization for different timeframes and market characteristics, with shorter periods providing tighter stops for active trading and longer periods offering broader stops suitable for position trading approaches. Buffer percentage additions ensure stops remain below obvious support levels where other market participants might place similar orders.
## Visual Customization and Interface Design
The strategy provides comprehensive visual customization through eight predefined color schemes designed for different chart backgrounds and personal preferences. Color scheme options include Classic bright green and red combinations, Ocean themes featuring blue and orange contrasts, Sunset combinations using gold and crimson, and Neon schemes providing high visibility through bright color selections.
Professional color schemes such as Forest, Royal, and Fire themes offer sophisticated alternatives suitable for business presentations and professional trading environments. The Custom color scheme enables precise color selection through individual color picker controls, maintaining maximum flexibility for specific visual requirements.
Label styling options accommodate different chart analysis preferences through text bubble, triangle, and arrow display formats. Size adjustments range from tiny through huge settings, ensuring appropriate visual scaling across different screen resolutions and chart configurations. Text color customization maintains readability across various chart themes and background selections.
## Signal Quality Enhancement Features
The strategy incorporates signal filtering mechanisms designed to eliminate repetitive signal generation during choppy market conditions. The disable repeating signals option prevents consecutive identical signals until opposing conditions occur, reducing overtrading during consolidation phases and improving overall signal quality.
Signal confirmation requirements ensure all technical criteria align before trade execution, reducing false signal occurrence while maintaining reasonable trading frequency for active strategies. The multi-layered approach balances signal quality against opportunity frequency through adjustable parameter optimization.
Entry and exit visualization provides clear trade identification through customizable labels positioned at relevant price levels. Stop loss visualization displays active risk levels through colored line plots, ensuring complete transparency regarding current risk management parameters during live trading operations.
## Implementation Guidelines and Optimization
The strategy performs effectively across multiple timeframes with optimal results typically occurring on intermediate timeframes ranging from fifteen minutes through four hours. Higher timeframes provide more reliable pattern formation and reduced false signal occurrence, while lower timeframes increase trading frequency at the expense of some signal reliability.
Parameter optimization should focus on RSI threshold adjustments based on market volatility characteristics and candlestick pattern timeframe analysis. Higher RSI thresholds generate fewer but potentially higher quality signals, while lower thresholds increase signal frequency with corresponding reliability considerations.
Stop loss method selection depends on trading style preferences and market analysis philosophy. Entry price-based stops suit systematic approaches requiring consistent risk parameters, while lowest low-based stops align with technical analysis methodologies emphasizing market structure recognition.
## Performance Considerations and Risk Disclosure
The strategy operates exclusively on long positions, making it unsuitable for bear market conditions or extended downtrend periods. Users should consider market environment analysis and broader trend assessment before implementing the strategy during adverse market conditions.
Candlestick pattern reliability varies significantly across different market conditions, with higher reliability typically occurring during trending markets compared to ranging or volatile conditions. Strategy performance may deteriorate during periods of reduced pattern effectiveness or increased market noise.
Risk management through stop loss implementation remains essential for capital preservation during adverse market movements. The strategy does not guarantee profitable outcomes and requires proper position sizing and risk management to prevent significant capital loss during unfavorable trading periods.
## Technical Specifications
The strategy utilizes standard TradingView Pine Script functions ensuring compatibility across all supported instruments and timeframes. Default configuration employs 14-period RSI calculations, adjustable candle stability thresholds, and customizable price decline verification periods optimized for general market conditions.
Initial capital settings default to $10,000 with percentage-based equity allocation, though users can adjust these parameters based on account size and risk tolerance requirements. The strategy maintains detailed trade logs and performance metrics through TradingView's integrated backtesting framework.
Alert integration enables real-time notification of entry and exit signals, stop loss executions, and other significant trading events. The comprehensive alert system supports automated trading applications and manual trade management approaches through detailed signal information provision.
## Conclusion
The Mutanabby_AI Algo Pro Strategy provides a systematic framework for candlestick pattern trading with comprehensive risk management and position sizing flexibility. The strategy's strength lies in its multi-layered confirmation approach and sophisticated customization options, enabling adaptation to various trading styles and market conditions.
Successful implementation requires understanding of candlestick pattern analysis principles and appropriate parameter optimization for specific market characteristics. The strategy serves traders seeking automated execution of proven technical analysis techniques while maintaining comprehensive control over risk management and position sizing methodologies.
Adaptive Freedom Machine w/labelsAdaptive Freedom Machine w/ Labels
Overview
The Adaptive Freedom Machine w/ Labels is a versatile Pine Script indicator designed to assist traders in identifying buy and sell opportunities across various market conditions (trending, ranging, or volatile). It combines Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), Relative Strength Index (RSI), Average True Range (ATR), and customizable time filters to generate actionable signals. The indicator overlays on the price chart, displaying EMAs, a dynamic cloud, scaled RSI levels, buy/sell signals, and market condition labels, making it suitable for swing trading, day trading, or scalping.
What It Does
This indicator generates buy and sell signals based on the interaction of two EMAs, filtered by RSI thresholds, ATR-based volatility, and user-defined time windows. It adapts to the selected market condition by adjusting EMA lengths, RSI thresholds, and trading hours. A dynamic cloud highlights trend direction or neutral zones, and candlestick bodies are colored in neutral conditions for clarity. A table displays real-time trend and volatility status.
How It Works
The indicator uses the following components:
EMAs: Two EMAs (short and long) are calculated on a user-selected timeframe (1, 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes). Their crossover or crossunder generates potential buy/sell signals, with lengths adjusted based on the market condition (e.g., longer EMAs for trending markets, shorter for ranging).
Dynamic Cloud: The area between the EMAs forms a cloud, colored green for uptrends, red for downtrends, or a user-defined color (default yellow) for neutral zones (when EMAs are close, determined by an ATR-based threshold). Users can widen the cloud for visibility.
RSI Filter: RSI is scaled to price levels and plotted on the chart (optional). Signals are filtered to ensure RSI is within user-defined buy/sell thresholds and not in overbought/oversold zones, with thresholds tailored to the market condition.
ATR Volatility Filter: An optional filter ensures signals occur during sufficient volatility (ATR(14) > SMA(ATR, 20)).
Time Filter: Signals are restricted to a user-defined or market-specific time window (e.g., 10:00–15:00 UTC for volatile markets), with an option for custom hours.
Visual Aids: Buy/sell signals appear as green triangles (buy) or red triangles (sell). Candlesticks in neutral zones are colored (default yellow). A table in the top-right corner shows the current trend (Uptrend, Downtrend, Neutral) and volatility (High or Low).
The indicator ensures compatibility with standard chart types (e.g., candlestick charts) to produce realistic signals, avoiding non-standard types like Heikin Ashi or Renko.
How to Use It
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to a candlestick or bar chart on TradingView.
Configure Settings:
Timeframe: Choose a timeframe (1, 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes) to align with your trading style.
Market Condition: Select one market condition (Trending, Ranging, or Volatile). Volatile is the default if none is selected. Only one condition can be active.
Filters:
Enable/disable the ATR volatility filter to trade only in high-volatility periods.
Enable the time filter and choose default hours (specific to the market condition) or set custom UTC hours.
Cloud Settings: Adjust the cloud width, neutral zone threshold, and color. Enable/disable the neutral cloud.
RSI Display: Toggle the scaled RSI and its thresholds on the chart.
Interpret Signals:
Buy Signal: A green triangle below the bar indicates a potential long entry (EMA crossover, RSI above buy threshold, within time window, and passing volatility filter).
Sell Signal: A red triangle above the bar indicates a potential short entry (EMA crossunder, RSI below sell threshold, within time window, and passing volatility filter).
Neutral Zone: Yellow candlesticks and cloud (if enabled) suggest a lack of clear trend; avoid trading or use for range-bound strategies.
Monitor the Table: Check the top-right table for real-time trend (Uptrend, Downtrend, Neutral) and volatility (High or Low) to confirm market context.
Unique Features
Adaptive Parameters: Automatically adjusts EMA lengths, RSI thresholds, and trading hours based on the selected market condition, reducing manual tweaking.
Neutral Zone Detection: Uses an ATR-based threshold to identify low-trend periods, helping traders avoid choppy markets.
Scaled RSI Visualization: Plots RSI and thresholds directly on the price chart, making it easier to assess momentum relative to price action.
Flexible Time Filtering: Supports both default and custom UTC-based trading windows, ideal for day traders targeting specific sessions.
Dynamic Cloud: Enhances trend visualization with customizable width and neutral zone coloring, improving readability.
Notes
Use on standard candlestick or bar charts to ensure realistic signals.
Test the indicator on a demo account to understand its behavior in your chosen market and timeframe.
Adjust settings to match your trading strategy, but avoid over-optimizing for past data.
The indicator is not a standalone system; combine it with other analysis (e.g., support/resistance, news events) for better results.
Limitations
Signals may lag in fast-moving markets due to EMA-based calculations.
Neutral zone detection may vary in extremely volatile or illiquid markets.
Time filters are UTC-based; ensure your platform’s timezone settings align.
This indicator is designed for traders seeking a customizable, trend-following tool that adapts to different market environments while providing clear visual cues and robust filtering.
Doji DetectorThis script is designed to detect Doji candlesticks, which are characterized by a small body compared to the overall candle range. The script identifies a Doji when:
✔ The body size is smaller than 10% of the total candle range, OR
✔ The body size is less than 3 pips.
How It Works:
The script calculates the body size of each candle (absolute difference between the open and close price).
It then compares the body size with the total candle range (high - low).
If the body size is smaller than 10% of the candle range or less than 3 pips, the script marks it as a Doji.
How to Use It:
Apply the script to your TradingView chart.
It will highlight Doji candles automatically.
Suitable for traders using price action analysis to identify potential market reversals or indecision zones.
🚀 Best suited for: Forex, Stocks, and Crypto markets.
🔔 Optional: You can modify the conditions to fit your trading strategy.
Center of Candle Trendline### **Center of Candle Trendline**
This script dynamically plots a trendline through the center of each candlestick's body. The "center" is calculated as the average of the open and close prices for each candle. The trendline updates in real-time as new candles form, providing a clean and straightforward way to track the market's midline movement.
#### **Features:**
1. **Dynamic Trendline:** The trendline connects the center points of consecutive candlestick bodies, giving a clear visual representation of price movements.
2. **Accurate Center Calculation:** The center is determined as `(open + close) / 2`, ensuring the trendline reflects the true midpoint of each candlestick body.
3. **Real-Time Updates:** The trendline updates automatically as new bars form, keeping your chart up to date with the latest price action.
4. **Customization-Ready:** Adjust the line’s color, width, or style easily to fit your chart preferences.
#### **How to Use:**

Body / Range %Body / Range is a volatility indicator that shows how many percentages the body candle occupies the range.
The ratio tells us about the health and confidence of the current candlestick.
Since overall candle Range is always bigger than the body range, Body/Range indicator will always fluctuate inside a range of 0 and 100%.
I didn't use True Range because it considers gaps and the ratio won't be considering individual candles. Therefore, I used high - low and identified it as Range.
In this function, the wicks play obviously role in determining the ratio too without its variable separately in the formula. I wouldn't use wicks here because Range = body + total wicks anyway. It already covers the variable. If I made the ratio with Body / Total Wicks, we wouldn't have stable 0 - 100% range of the indicator by the way. So it's fully justified dividing Body by Range to get some summarized Candle Metrics.
Logically we assume that if wicks are relatively bigger than body then the ratio will be relatively smaller and vice versa.
Change TF of the indicator is possible. For example, 3 months per bar would look like this:
Real Price Line + Dots (for Heikin Ashi)Real Price Line + Dots (for Heikin Ashi)
This indicator is designed for use on Heikin Ashi charts. Its purpose is to enable traders to benefit from price averaging and smoothing effects of Heikin Ashi candles whilst also enabling them to see the current real price line, and optionally, real price close dots on the Heikin Ashi candlesticks.
Features include:
- Optional real price line
- Optional real price close dots
- Customisable colours
- Customisable line style
- Customisable line width
What are Heikin Ashi candles?
Heikin Ashi means 'average bar' in Japanese, Heikin Ashi charts do not show real price as standard, due to the way the Open, High, Low and Close values are calculated using averages, This is done in order to create a smoother appearance and reduce the market 'noise'.
You can read more about Heikin Ashi candlesticks here.
NOTE:
- If real price dots appear behind the candles, you may need to select the triple dot menu on the indicator then select "Visual order" > "Bring to front" , so that the dots are shown above the candles.
- When using this indicator on a Heikin Ashi chart, the standard Tradingview price line will not show accurate real price. Therefore when using the price line in this indicator, the standard price line should be disabled within the Tradingview 'Chart settings' dialog > 'Symbol' tab > uncheck 'Last', under the 'Price line' section.

RSI Candles with EMA byAuncleJoeThe Relative Strength Index (RSI) is one of the most widely used momentum indicators in trading. It helps traders assess whether an asset is overbought or oversold by measuring the speed and magnitude of recent price changes. Traditionally, RSI is displayed as a single line oscillating between 0 and 100, but this representation can sometimes make it difficult to spot trends, reversals, and momentum shifts effectively.
To enhance RSI visualization and usability, the RSI Candles with EMA indicator transforms the RSI values into candlestick charts, providing a more intuitive and dynamic way to analyze momentum. Unlike the traditional RSI line, this approach allows traders to observe RSI trends just as they would analyze price charts, making it easier to detect changes in momentum and trend strength.
Each RSI candle represents a specific period’s momentum activity. Green candles indicate that the RSI closed higher than it opened, signaling bullish momentum, while red candles suggest that the RSI closed lower than it opened, indicating bearish sentiment. This candlestick-style visualization helps traders spot RSI trends, breakouts, and reversals more effectively than a simple line chart.
To further refine momentum analysis, this indicator also includes an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of RSI. The EMA smooths RSI fluctuations and provides a clearer trend direction. When RSI candles remain above the EMA, it suggests strong buying momentum, whereas RSI candles falling below the EMA indicate increasing selling pressure. This combination of RSI candlesticks and an EMA line allows traders to better identify shifts in market sentiment and potential trend reversals.
Additionally, the indicator includes customizable overbought and oversold levels (defaulted at 70 and 30, respectively). These levels help traders recognize when an asset might be overextended in either direction, potentially signaling an upcoming reversal. When RSI candles approach or cross these thresholds, traders can anticipate possible changes in market direction.
This indicator is particularly useful for a wide range of traders. Scalpers and day traders can leverage it to quickly identify short-term momentum shifts, while swing traders can use it to detect potential reversals in multi-day trends. Trend-following traders can confirm bullish or bearish trends based on RSI’s position relative to its EMA, and mean reversion traders can use it to spot extreme conditions where price action might snap back.
By combining RSI candlesticks with an EMA filter, this indicator provides a more dynamic and visually intuitive approach to momentum trading. It offers clearer trend signals, better reversal detection, and enhanced decision-making, making it an essential tool for traders who rely on RSI-based strategies.

Candle Emotion Index (CEI)The Candle Emotion Index (CEI) is a comprehensive sentiment analysis indicator that combines three sub-oscillators—Indecision Oscillator, Fear Oscillator, and Greed Oscillator—to provide a single, unified measure of market sentiment. By analyzing bullish, bearish, and indecisive candlestick patterns, the CEI delivers a holistic view of market emotions and helps traders identify key turning points.
How It Works
Indecision Oscillator: Measures market uncertainty using Doji and Spinning Top candlestick patterns. Scores their presence and normalizes the results over a user-defined lookback period.
Fear Oscillator: Measures bearish sentiment using Shooting Star, Hanging Man, and Bearish Engulfing candlestick patterns. Scores their presence and normalizes the results over a user-defined lookback period.
Greed Oscillator: Measures bullish sentiment using Marubozu, Bullish Engulfing, Hammer, and Three White Soldiers candlestick patterns. Scores their presence and normalizes the results over a user-defined lookback period.
Candle Emotion Index Calculation: The CEI is calculated as the average of the Indecision, Fear, and Greed Oscillators: CEI = (Indecision Oscillator + Fear Oscillator + Greed Oscillator) / 3
Plotting: The CEI is plotted as a single line on the chart, representing overall market sentiment.
Reference lines are added to indicate Low Emotion, Neutral, and High Emotion levels.
The Candle Emotion Index provides a unified perspective on market sentiment by blending indecision, fear, and greed into one easy-to-interpret metric. It serves as a powerful tool for traders seeking to gauge market psychology and identify high-probability trading opportunities. For best results, use the CEI in conjunction with other technical indicators to confirm signals.

Enable AO (if true trades are filtered using Awesome Oscillator (AO) condition all details in "Justification of Methodology" paragraph), by default = false)
Justification of Methodology
Let's explore the key concepts of this strategy and understand how they work together. The first and key concept is the Bullish Reversal Bar candlestick pattern. This is just the single bar pattern. The rules are simple:
Candle shall be closed in it's upper half
High of this candle shall be below all three Alligator's lines (Jaw, Lips, Teeth)
Next, let’s discuss the short-term trend filter, which combines the Williams Alligator and Williams Fractals. Williams Alligator
Developed by Bill Williams, the Alligator is a technical indicator that identifies trends and potential market reversals. It consists of three smoothed moving averages:
Jaw (Blue Line): The slowest of the three, based on a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars ahead.
Teeth (Red Line): The medium-speed line, derived from an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars forward.
Lips (Green Line): The fastest line, calculated using a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars forward.
When the lines diverge and align in order, the "Alligator" is "awake," signaling a strong trend. When the lines overlap or intertwine, the "Alligator" is "asleep," indicating a range-bound or sideways market. This indicator helps traders determine when to enter or avoid trades.
Fractals, another tool by Bill Williams, help identify potential reversal points on a price chart. A fractal forms over at least five consecutive bars, with the middle bar showing either:
Up Fractal: Occurs when the middle bar has a higher high than the two preceding and two following bars, suggesting a potential downward reversal.
Down Fractal: Happens when the middle bar shows a lower low than the surrounding two bars, hinting at a possible upward reversal.
Traders often use fractals alongside other indicators to confirm trends or reversals, enhancing decision-making accuracy.
How do these tools work together in this strategy? Let’s consider an example of an uptrend.
When the price breaks above an up fractal, it signals a potential bullish trend. This occurs because the up fractal represents a shift in market behavior, where a temporary high was formed due to selling pressure. If the price revisits this level and breaks through, it suggests the market sentiment has turned bullish.
The breakout must occur above the Alligator’s teeth line to confirm the trend. A breakout below the teeth is considered invalid, and the downtrend might still persist. Conversely, in a downtrend, the same logic applies with down fractals.
How we can use all these indicators in this strategy? This strategy is a counter trend one. Candle's high shall be below all Alligator's lines. During this market stage the bullish reversal bar candlestick pattern shall be printed. This bar during the downtrend is a high probability setup for the potential reversal to the upside: bulls were able to close the price in the upper half of a candle. The breaking of its high is a high probability signal that trend change is confirmed and script opens long trade. If market continues going down and break down the bullish reversal bar's low potential trend change has been invalidated and strategy close long trade.
If market really reversed and started moving to the upside strategy waits for the trend change form the downtrend to the uptrend according to approximation of Alligator and Fractals combination. If this change happens strategy close the trade. This approach helps to stay in the long trade while the uptrend continuation is likely and close it if there is a high probability of the uptrend finish.
Optionally users can enable MFI and AO filters. First of all, let's briefly explain what are these two indicators. The Awesome Oscillator (AO), created by Bill Williams, is a momentum-based indicator that evaluates market momentum by comparing recent price activity to a broader historical context. It assists traders in identifying potential trend reversals and gauging trend strength.
AO = SMA5(Median Price) − SMA34(Median Price)
where:
Median Price = (High + Low) / 2
SMA5 = 5-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
SMA 34 = 34-period Simple Moving Average of the Median Price
This indicator is filtering signals in the following way: if current AO bar is decreasing this candle can be interpreted as a bullish reversal bar. This logic is applicable because initially this strategy is a trend reversal, it is searching for the high probability setup against the current trend. Decreasing AO is the additional high probability filter of a downtrend.
Let's briefly look what is MFI. The Market Facilitation Index (MFI) is a technical indicator that measures the price movement per unit of volume, helping traders gauge the efficiency of price movement in relation to trading volume. Here's how you can calculate it:
MFI = (High−Low)/Volume
MFI can be used in combination with volume, so we can divide 4 states. Bill Williams introduced these to help traders interpret the interaction between volume and price movement. Here’s a quick summary:
Green Window (Increased MFI & Increased Volume): Indicates strong momentum with both price and volume increasing. Often a sign of trend continuation, as both buying and selling interest are rising.
Fake Window (Increased MFI & Decreased Volume): Shows that price is moving but with lower volume, suggesting weak support for the trend. This can signal a potential end of the current trend.
Squat Window (Decreased MFI & Increased Volume): Shows high volume but little price movement, indicating a tug-of-war between buyers and sellers. This often precedes a breakout as the pressure builds.
Fade Window (Decreased MFI & Decreased Volume): Indicates a lack of interest from both buyers and sellers, leading to lower momentum. This typically happens in range-bound markets and may signal consolidation before a new move.
For our purposes we are interested in squat bars. This is the sign that volume cannot move the price easily. This type of bar increases the probability of trend reversal. In this indicator we added to enable the MFI filter of reversal bars. If potential reversal bar or two preceding bars have squat state this bar can be interpret as a reversal one.

Price and Volume Breakout Buy Strategy [TradeDots]The "Price and Volume Breakout Buy Strategy" is a trading strategy designed to identify buying opportunities by detecting concurrent price and volume breakouts over a specified range of candlesticks.
This strategy is optimized for assets demonstrating high volatility and significant momentum spikes.
HOW IT WORKS
The strategy first takes the specific number of candlesticks as the examination window for both price and volume.
These values are used as benchmarks to identify breakout conditions.
A trade is initiated when both the closing price and the trading volume surpass the maximum values observed within the predetermined window.
Price must be above a designated moving average, serving as the trend indicator, ensuring that all trades align with the prevailing market trend.
APPLICATION
This strategy is particularly effective for highly volatile assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, capitalizing on the cues from sudden price and volume breakouts indicative of significant market movement, often driven by market smart money traders.
However, for broader markets like the S&P 500, this strategy may be less effective due to less pronounced volume and price shifts compared to the cryptocurrency markets.
DEFAULT SETUP
Commission: 0.01%
Initial Capital: $10,000
Equity per Trade: 70%
Backtest result sometimes gives fewer than 100 trades under certain higher timeframes, as most trades tend to have a long holding period. Entry conditions are also more stringent, which, combined with the relatively brief history of cryptocurrencies, results in fewer trades on longer timeframes.
Users are advised to adjust and personalize this trading strategy to better match their individual trading preferences and style.
RISK DISCLAIMER
Trading entails substantial risk, and most day traders incur losses. All content, tools, scripts, articles, and education provided by TradeDots serve purely informational and educational purposes. Past performances are not definitive predictors of future results.

Encapsulation BoxThe “Encapsulation Box” indicator is designed to locate areas of the chart where the highs and lows of candlesticks are “embedded” or enclosed within the body of a previous candlestick. This setup indicates a significant contraction in the market and can provide important trading signals. Here's how it works in more detail:
Detecting contraction: The indicator looks for situations where the price range of the candles is very narrow, i.e. when subsequent candles have highs and lows that are contained within the range of a previous candle. This condition indicates a contraction in the market before a possible directional move.
When a contraction is detected, the indicator draws a rectangle around the area where the highs and lows of the candles are embedded. The rectangle has its upper vertex corresponding to the maximum of the candles involved and its lower vertex corresponding to the minimum. The width of the rectangle is defined by can be customized by the user.
A key feature of this indicator is the horizontal line drawn outside the rectangle. This line is positioned in the middle of the rectangle and represents 50% of the range of the rectangle itself. This line acts as a significant support or resistance level depending on the direction the contraction breaks.
The indicator can generate buy or sell signals when a break in the rectangle or horizontal line occurs. For example, if the price breaks above the rectangle and the horizontal line, it could generate a buy signal, indicating a possible uptrend. Conversely, if the price breaks below the rectangle and the horizontal line, it could generate a sell signal, indicating a possible downtrend.
Price Percentage Shaded CandlesDescription:
The Price Percentage Shaded Candles indicator (P%SC) is a technical analysis tool designed to represent price candles on a chart with shading intensity based on the percentage change between the open and close prices. This overlay indicator enhances visual analysis by providing a visual representation of price movement intensity.
How it Works:
The P%SC indicator calculates the percentage change between the open and close prices of each candle. It then determines the shading intensity of the price candles based on this percentage change. Higher percentage changes result in darker shading, while lower percentage changes result in lighter shading.
Usage:
To effectively utilize the Price Percentage Shaded Candles indicator, follow these steps:
1. Apply the Price Percentage Shaded Candles indicator to your chart by adding it from the available indicators.
2. Configure the indicator's inputs:
- Specify the color for bullish candles using the "Bullish Color" input.
- Specify the color for bearish candles using the "Bearish Color" input.
3. Observe the shaded candles on the chart:
- Bullish candles are colored with the specified bullish color and shaded according to the percentage change.
- Bearish candles are colored with the specified bearish color and shaded according to the percentage change.
4. Interpret the shaded candles:
- Darker shading indicates a higher percentage change and stronger price movement during the corresponding candle.
- Lighter shading indicates a lower percentage change and weaker price movement during the corresponding candle.
5. Combine the analysis of shaded candles with other technical analysis tools, such as trend lines, support and resistance levels, or candlestick patterns, to identify potential trade setups.
6. Implement appropriate risk management strategies, including setting stop-loss orders and position sizing, to manage your trades effectively and protect your capital.
Note: The Price Percentage Shaded Candles indicator provides insights into the shading intensity of price candles based on percentage changes. However, it is recommended to use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and perform thorough analysis before making trading decisions.
Histogram Momentum Shaded CandlesDescription:
The Histogram Momentum Shaded Candles indicator (HMSC) is a powerful technical analysis tool that combines the concepts of the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) indicator and shaded candlestick visualization. It provides insights into momentum and trend strength by representing the MACD histogram as shaded candles on the chart.
How it Works:
The HMSC indicator calculates the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) using user-defined parameters such as the fast length, slow length, source, signal smoothing, and moving average types. It then calculates the MACD histogram by subtracting the signal line from the MACD line. The indicator transforms the histogram values into transparency levels for the shaded candles, representing bullish and bearish momentum.
Usage:
To effectively utilize the Histogram Momentum Shaded Candles indicator, follow these steps:
1. Apply the HMSC indicator to your chart by adding it from the available indicators.
2. Customize the MACD settings such as the fast length, slow length, source, signal smoothing, and moving average types according to your trading preferences.
3. Observe the shaded candles plotted on the chart:
- Bullish shaded candles (green by default) indicate positive momentum and potential buying pressure.
- Bearish shaded candles (red by default) indicate negative momentum and potential selling pressure.
4. Assess the intensity of the shaded candles:
5. Shading intensity is determined by the magnitude of the MACD histogram, with higher values resulting in more opaque candles.
6. The shading intensity reflects the strength of momentum and can help identify significant shifts in price action.
7. Combine the analysis of shaded candles with traditional candlestick patterns, trend lines, support and resistance levels, and other technical indicators to validate potential trade setups.
8. Implement appropriate risk management strategies, including setting stop-loss orders and position sizing, to manage your trades effectively and protect your capital.
