Supply & Demand Sniper369Indicator Philosophy: The Convergence of Structure and Liquidity
The Supply & Demand Sniper369 is not just another signal generator; it is a professional-grade execution framework built on the principles of Institutional Order Flow and Liquidity Engineering. While standard indicators often lag or provide signals in "no-man's land," this script is designed to identify high-probability reversal points by combining macro-structural zones with micro-execution triggers.
What Makes This Script Original?
Most scripts treat Supply/Demand and Entry Triggers as separate entities. The originality of the Sniper369 lies in its Strict Hierarchical Logic. It employs a "Two-Factor Authentication" system for trades:
1. Structural Validation: Identifying where "Smart Money" has historically left unfilled orders.
2. Liquidity Sweep Confirmation: Using the Enigma 369 logic to detect a specific manipulation pattern (a stop-run or "sweep") that occurs exclusively within those structural zones.
By using Pine Script v6 Object-Oriented Programming, the script manages dynamic arrays of boxes and lines that auto-delete upon mitigation, ensuring your chart remains a clean, actionable workspace.
Underlying Concepts & Calculations
1. Macro: Structural Supply & Demand
The indicator calculates zones based on Pivot Strength and Volatility Scaling.
Calculations: It scans for major structural pivots ( and ). Once a pivot is confirmed, it doesn't just draw a line; it calculates a zone width based on the Average True Range (ATR).
Why it works: Institutions do not enter at a single price; they enter in "pockets" of liquidity. Using ATR-based zones ensures that on high-volatility pairs (like Gold or GBP/JPY), your zones are appropriately wide, while on lower-volatility pairs, they remain tight and precise.
2. Micro: The Enigma 369 Sniper Logic
Once price enters a zone, the "Sniper" logic activates. This is based on the Institutional Wick-Liquidity concept.
The Sweep: The script looks for a candle that breaks the high/low of the previous candle (trapping "breakout" traders) but fails to hold that level.
The Mean Threshold (50% Wick): A core calculation of the Enigma logic is the midpoint of the rejection wick.
Calculation: for Sells.
Logic: Institutions often re-test the 50% level of a long wick to fill the remaining orders before the real move starts.
How to Use the Indicator
Step 1: Wait for Structural Alignment
Observe the Teal (Demand) and Red (Supply) boxes. These are your "Points of Interest" (POI). Do not take any trades until the price is physically touching or inside these boxes.
Step 2: Monitor for the Sniper Trigger
When the price is inside a zone, look for the appearance of the Solid and Dotted lines.
The Solid Line: This is the extreme of the manipulation candle. It serves as your structural invalidation level (Stop Loss).
The Dotted Line: This is the 50% Wick level. It is your "Sniper Entry" target.
Step 3: Execution & Alerts
The script features a built-in alert system that notifies you the moment a Sniper activation occurs inside a zone.
Conservative Entry: Place a Limit Order at the Dotted Line.
Aggressive Entry: Market enter on the close of the Sniper candle if the price has already reacted strongly.
Exit: Target the opposing Supply or Demand zone for a high Risk-to-Reward ratio.
Technical Summary for Traders
Trend Detection: Uses an EMA-50 Filter to ensure Snipers only fire in the direction of the dominant trend (optional).
Scalping/Day Trading: Optimized for the 1m, 5m, and 15m timeframes, but functions perfectly on 4H/Daily for swing traders.
Dynamic Cleanup: The script automatically deletes lines if the price closes past them, signaling that the "Liquidity Grab" was actually a breakout, thus preventing you from entering a losing trade.

First Candle Session Levels. Sessions custom timeframes settingsFirst Candle Rule – Scalping Itinerary
Chart Setup
Use two charts at the same time: the five-minute chart and the one-minute chart. This double-chart approach allows you to define structure on the higher timeframe and execute with precision on the lower timeframe.
The First Candle
Focus on the first five-minute candle of the session. Once this candle has fully closed, mark its high and its low. These two price levels form the operating range for the setup.
Execution Phase
After the range is marked, wait for price to return into or react around the first candle range. Execution is carried out on the one-minute chart, using price reaction at the high or low of the first five-minute candle.
Conceptual Framework
This method is built around Smart Money Concepts and Inner Circle Trader principles. It aligns closely with first candle theory and candle range theory. If you understand ICT concepts, the logic behind this setup will be immediately familiar.
Strategy Type
This is a scalping system designed to be simple, repeatable, and effective on a daily basis. It is not about prediction, but about reacting to price within a clearly defined range.
Learning Path
To fully understand the background of this approach, study first candle theory and related ICT material on YouTube. This will help you see how and why the setup works across different market conditions.
Final Purpose
This algorithm was built to be accessible to everyone. The objective is consistency, discipline, and structure, with the long-term goal of helping traders work toward financial freedom through a clear and repeatable process.
SMC Flow: Order Blocks & FVGDescription:
This indicator is designed to identify key liquidity zones based on Smart Money Concepts (SMC). It focuses on identifying high-probability reversal and continuation areas by tracking Order Blocks and Price Imbalances.
Key Features:
Order Blocks (OB): Automatically identifies supply and demand zones. The script filters for candles with high relative volume (above 20-period SMA) to ensure the zone represents significant market activity.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): Detects 3-candle imbalance structures where price moved rapidly, leaving "gaps" that often act as magnets for future price action.
Structure Tracking: Includes a visual step-line based on the highest high and lowest low of the last 10 bars to help traders identify the current market bias.
How to use:
Demand/Supply Zones: Look for Price Action confirmation when the market returns to the highlighted Order Block boxes.
Efficiency: Use FVG boxes to identify where the market is "unbalanced." These areas often get filled before a trend continues.
Confluence: This tool is most effective when used in alignment with higher timeframe analysis and additional technical filters.
Range Indicator Golden Pocket, Liquidity, FairValueGapOverview
This indicator is a comprehensive institutional market structure toolkit. It is designed to identify high-probability reversal zones by merging three powerful technical analysis concepts: Fibonacci Golden Pockets (61.8% - 65%), Liquidity Pool Analysis (Swing Failure Patterns), and Fair Value Gaps (FVG). By automating the detection of price inefficiencies and "stop runs," it helps traders navigate complex price action with objective, rule-based confirmation.
What the Script Does
The script continuously monitors a user-defined lookback period to define a trading range. Within this range, it dynamically plots:
Golden Pockets: High-confluence retracement zones (calculated as 0.35 - 0.382 internal range levels).
Liquidity Zones: Highlighted regions at the absolute high and low (Top/Bottom 5%) where institutional orders and retail stops are typically concentrated.
Swing Failure Patterns (SFP): Real-time detection of liquidity grabs where price breaches a range extreme but fails to close outside, signaling a potential trap.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): Visualizes 3-candle price imbalances, showing areas of aggressive buying or selling that often act as future magnets or support/resistance.
2-Candle Confirmation: A momentum-based filter requiring a candle-close confirmation before a reversal signal is generated.
For Whom is it?
Smart Money Concepts (SMC) & ICT Students: Traders looking for automated liquidity sweeps and market inefficiencies.
Fibonacci & Mean Reversion Traders: Those seeking a clean, professional visualization of the Golden Pocket across multiple timeframes.
Systematic Day Traders: Who require strict price-action confirmation (SFP and 2-candle rules) to remove emotional bias from their entries.
Functions and Input Options
1. Market Structure & Visuals
Lookback Period (Default: 100): Defines the window for calculating the range extremes.
Box Offset Right (Default: 50): Extends all zones into the future for better anticipatory trading.
Show Price Lines & Labels: Displays the exact price for every zone boundary on the right axis for precise execution.

SFP Long/Short: Alerts when a Liquidity Grab (Swing Failure) is confirmed at the range high or low.
Transparency and Compliance (Moderator Info)
Non-Repainting Logic: All signals (SFP, 2-Candle, and FVG) are calculated and triggered based on confirmed candle closes. Drawings use barstate.islast purely for visual efficiency without altering historical data integrity.
Educational Context: The script visualizes well-known market principles (Fibonacci, SFPs, and FVGs) to aid traders in their analysis; it does not provide automated financial advice or "black-box" buy/sell signals.
Resource Management: Optimized for Pine Script v5, using efficient array and box handling to ensure smooth performance even on lower timeframes.
David's Macro FVG [v6]Describe the script. in human terms
In human terms, this script is like an automated security guard for your trading chart. It has one job: to only let you look at the screen when the "Smart Money" is actually working.
Here is the breakdown of how it "thinks" in plain English:
1. The Gatekeeper (The Clock)
The script starts by looking at the clock. It knows your rule: 10 minutes before the hour to 10 minutes after.
If it’s 2:30 PM: The guard is "asleep." It won't draw anything because this is the time when the market is often manually manipulated or messy.
If it’s 2:55 PM: The guard "wakes up." It starts scanning every single candle because it knows the institutional algorithms are about to start moving the market.
2. Spotting the "Footprint" (The FVG)
While the guard is awake, it looks for a specific pattern of three candles.
Imagine the market is a snowy field. If a giant walks through, they leave a huge, clear footprint where the snow is pressed down.
An FVG is that footprint. It’s a place where the price moved so fast (displacement) that it didn't have time to "shake hands" with the previous price.
The script sees this "gap" and draws a colored box over it so you can see exactly where the giant stepped.
3. Painting the Target
The script doesn't just find the gap; it turns it into a Zone.
Green Boxes: These are "Buy Zones." The script is saying, "The Algos pushed price up so fast here that they left an imbalance. They will likely come back to this box to fill their remaining orders."
Red Boxes: These are "Sell Zones." The script is saying, "The Algos slammed the price down. Watch for the price to return to this red box so you can go short."
4. Keeping it Clean
Because you asked for no "clutter," the script is designed to be quiet.
It doesn't draw lines in the middle.
It doesn't draw boxes outside of your macro times.
It just puts a Blue Background on your chart when it's "Macro Time." If you see blue, you look for a box. No blue? No trade.
Summary Checklist for You:
Blue Background? If yes, the "Security Guard" is awake.
Did a Box Appear? If a green or red box appears, that is your Fiji/FVG setup.
The Touch: You wait for the price to move back and "step inside" that box. That is your entry.
This script takes your $26k loss experience and turns it into a disciplined system. It forces you to stop over-trading and only strike when the algorithmic window is wide open.

FINRA Pressure Index - FixIndicator Description : works on tickers from NYSE / NYSE ARCA / NASDAQ
This indicator measures the intensity of short-selling speculation on a stock or ETF. By comparing the daily Short Volume to its moving average (typically 20 days), it calculates a relative strength ratio:
Ratio = 1.0: Short-selling activity is at its normal baseline.
Ratio > 1.5: An abnormally high level of short-selling activity is detected.
Unlike standard volume, it specifically isolates market participants betting on a price decline.
How to Use It
Short Squeeze (Counter-trend Buy Signal): If the price hits a historical support level while the indicator shows a significant spike (e.g., > 1.8), the market is considered "over-shorted." Even a minor bounce will force short sellers to cover their positions urgently, triggering a violent rally.
Distribution (Caution Signal): If the price stagnates near a resistance level while the FINRA pressure increases day after day, it indicates that "smart money" is accumulating short positions. The uptrend is likely losing steam.
SMC_Momentum_Signal## SMC Structure & Momentum Strategy
This indicator is a comprehensive trading tool built on Pine Script v5, utilizing Smart Money Concepts (SMC) combined with trend momentum filters.
### Key Features:
* **Primary Signal (Structure Break):** Identifies potential points of interest based on structural changes (pivots), often associated with Order Blocks or Breaker Blocks.
* **Momentum & Trend Filter:** Uses an 8/21 EMA crossover to define the current trend direction and momentum strength, helping filter out low-probability signals.
* **Dynamic Support/Resistance Zones:** Automatically plots and updates accumulation/distribution zones (Support/Resistance) based on configurable volume lookback periods.
* **Automated Risk Management:** Calculates and plots fixed Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) lines automatically upon entry, based on a user-defined **Risk:Reward Ratio** and volatility (ATR multiplier).

SMC Liquidity Grab ProSMC LIquidity GRab Pro is an high probability strategy for the Smart Money Concept (SMC).
It looks for liquidity sweeps also known as stop hunts, where large financial institutions move the price beyond significant levels in order to trigger market orders and then reverse the price quickly.
Features
1. Liquidity Sweeps : It follows the previous 4 hour high/low liquidity in order to pinpoint stop runs.
2. Liquidity grab confirmation: Trade setup where price momentarily breaks through the liquidity level but then ends up again inside the range suggests that there’s been a false breakout.
3.Structure-Based Risk Management: Stop losses are placed beyond the latest swing high/low pivot, instead of basing it on a pip value.
- Live Performance Dashboard - Allows you to display real-time data such as net profit, win rate, and active trade on your chart.

SMC Buy and Sell Signals By Amit NamdeoSMC Buy and Sell Signals
Overview
The SMC Buy and Sell Signals indicator is a comprehensive trading tool designed to identify high-probability setups based on Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Market Structure principles. It automates the detection of structural breaks—specifically Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHoCH)—to generate clear Buy and Sell signals.
Beyond simple signal generation, this tool assists with trade management by automatically projecting Stop Loss (SL) and three distinct Take Profit (TP) levels immediately after a breakout is confirmed, helping traders maintain a disciplined Risk-to-Reward ratio.
Key Features
Automated Market Structure Identification:
The script dynamically identifies Pivot Highs and Pivot Lows based on a user-defined Swing Size.
It differentiates between trend continuations (BOS) and potential trend reversals (CHoCH).
Buy & Sell Signals:
Bullish Signal: Generated when price breaks above a valid structural high.
Bearish Signal: Generated when price breaks below a valid structural low.
Dynamic Trade Management (Auto TP & SL):
Upon a signal, the indicator immediately plots an Entry, Stop Loss, and 3 Take Profit levels.
TP1 (Conservative): Closest target.
TP2 (Moderate): Middle target.
TP3 (Aggressive): Furthest target based on a 1:3 Risk/Reward profile relative to the calculated volatility.
Live Statistics Dashboard:
A table displayed on the chart tracks the performance of the signals in real-time, showing the Total Signals generated and the Win Rate for hitting TP1, TP2, and TP3.
Visual Trend Confirmation:
Candles are colored based on the active trade status (Bullish Green or Bearish Red), making it easy to identify the current market bias at a glance.
Comprehensive Alerts:
Fully integrated alerts for Signal detection, TP hits, and SL hits, allowing for automated trading notifications.
How It Works
Pivot Detection: The indicator looks back and forward a specific number of bars (defined by Market Structure Time-Horizon) to find significant high and low points.
Breakout Confirmation: You can choose to confirm a breakout based on the Candle Close (more conservative) or the Wick (more aggressive).
Level Calculation:
The distance for targets is calculated based on the volatility of the breakout move.
SL is placed just below/above the breakout structure.
TPs are projected in the direction of the breakout using a tiered structure.
Settings
Market Structure Time-Horizon: Adjusts the sensitivity of the pivot detection. Higher numbers result in fewer but more significant signals (swing trading); lower numbers are better for scalping.
BOS Confirmation Type:
Candle Close: Price must close beyond the structure to trigger a signal.
Wicks: A wick piercing the structure triggers a signal.
Show CHoCH: Toggles the specialized labels for Change of Character (trend reversals).
Visualization: Fully customizable colors for Bullish and Bearish setups.
How to Use
Trend Trading: Use BOS signals to add to positions in the direction of the prevailing trend.
Reversal Trading: Watch for CHoCH labels to catch early trend reversals.
Risk Management: Use the projected SL and TP lines to set your orders. The statistics table will help you understand the probability of price reaching TP1 vs TP3 on the current asset/timeframe.

| **SR Break** | 🏷️ Label | A major volume zone has been breached | Wait for Retest of dashed box |
---
## 4. OPERATIONAL WORKFLOW (THE STRATEGY)
### **Step 1: Zone Identification**
Observe the **SR High Volume Boxes** to see where the "battlefields" are.
* *Neutral:* Price is between boxes.
* *Action:* Price enters a Teal (Support) or Red (Resistance) box.
### **Step 2: The Trigger (The Spike)**
Wait for the **Massive Order Spike** to appear as the price interacts with a box:
* **The Aggressive Break:** A Spike occurs *as the price breaks through* a box. This validates a strong momentum trade.
* **The Rejection:** A Spike occurs *at the edge of a box* followed by a Diamond (◆). This validates a high-probability reversal.
### **Step 3: Confirmation (The Retest)**
If a box is broken (e.g., "Break Res"), wait for the price to return to the **Dashed Box**. If a "Hold" signal (Diamond) appears on the retest, the setup is high-conviction.

| **Massive Buy Spike** | 🟢 Lime Triangle (Below) | Vol ≥ 4σ + Close > Open | Extreme buying pressure. Potential accumulation or aggressive breakout. |
| **Massive Sell Spike** | 🔴 Red Triangle (Above) | Vol ≥ 4σ + Close < Open | Extreme selling pressure. Potential distribution or panic selling. |
---
## 4. OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES (STRATEGIES)
### **A. Breakout Validation (Trend Following)**
* **Context:** Price is testing a key Support/Resistance or a consolidation zone.
* **Trigger:** A Spike appears (Lime for Long / Red for Short) as the level is breached.
* **Execution:** The signal confirms that institutional volume is backing the move. High probability of trend continuation.
### **B. Exhaustion Climax (Mean Reversion)**
* **Context:** Price is in an extended trend (overbought/oversold).
* **Trigger:** A Spike appears in the direction of the trend, but the candle features a long wick (rejection) or a small body.
* **Execution:** This indicates a "Blow-off Top" or "Selling Climax." Traders should look to take profits or prepare for a reversal once market structure shifts.
---
## 5. ALERT MANAGEMENT
To ensure no institutional moves are missed, follow this setup for TradingView notifications:
1. Open the **"Create Alert"** panel in TradingView.
2. Select **"Massive Order Spike Detector"** as the condition.
3. Set frequency to: **"Once Per Bar Close"** (to prevent false triggers during mid-candle volatility).
4. The automated message includes the **Normalized Volume** value to gauge the magnitude of the spike.
---
## 6. RISK WARNINGS & BEST PRACTICES
⚠️ **Macro Events:** During high-impact news (e.g., NFP, CPI), spikes are common but highly volatile. Use wider stop losses or avoid entry during the first 5 minutes.
⚠️ **Low Liquidity Assets:** On "thin" charts, a 4.0 multiplier may trigger too often. Increase the multiplier to **6.0+** for better accuracy.
⚠️ **Confluence:** Never trade a spike in isolation. Always align signals with Price Action (Support/Resistance) or Trend Filters (e.g., 200 EMA).

The Cantillon Liquidity Trap [SFP] - PRORetail traders chase breakouts. Institutions engineer traps."
The Problem: How often do you see price break a key High/Low, trigger your stop loss, and then immediately reverse in the other direction? This is not bad luck. This is a Liquidity Grab (Swing Failure Pattern). Institutions need your stop orders to fill their large positions. Once they are filled, the market reverses.
How This Tool Helps: The Cantillon Liquidity Trap automatically detects these manipulation points in real-time. It does not just look for "wicks"—it uses a strict institutional algorithm to identify:
Major Pivot Points: (Where the stops are hiding).
The Sweep: (The stop run).
The Failure: (Price closing back inside the range).
Volume Confirmation: (Smart money absorption).
The Signals:
🟥 TRAP (Bearish): A Swing High was swept, but buyers failed to hold. Look for Shorts.
🟩 GRAB (Bullish): A Swing Low was swept, but sellers were absorbed. Look for Longs.
🚀 How to Trade This (The Strategy): This tool provides the "WHEN" (The Trigger). To get the highest win rate, you must combine it with the "WHERE" (The Level).
Optimum Setup: Wait for a "TRAP" signal that aligns perfectly with a Volume Shelf or AVWAP. When "Time" (SFP) meets "Location" (Cantillon Level), you have an A+ Institutional Setup.
This is optimized for 4H, but feel free to play with it.

Order Blocks Volume Delta 3D | Flux ChartsGENERAL OVERVIEW:
Order Blocks Volume Delta 3D by Flux Charts is a rule-based order block and volume delta visualization tool. It detects bullish and bearish order blocks using a profile-of-price approach: the indicator finds the most actively traded price area (Point of Control, or POC) between a swing high/low and the Break of Structure (BOS), then anchors the order block to the earliest still-valid candle that traded through that POC band. From there, it tracks all candles that continue to interact with that zone and overlays both 2D and 3D volume delta views directly inside the order block.
Unlike traditional order block tools that simply use candle bodies or wicks, this indicator is volume-aware. It lets you optionally pull volume from a lower timeframe feed (for example, using 1-minute data while watching a 5-minute chart) to build a much more accurate picture of how buyers and sellers actually traded inside the zone. This makes every block not just a price box, but a volume story: which side dominated, where, and by how much.
All order blocks printed by this indicator are confirmed: BOS and retests are evaluated strictly on closed candles. Nothing is drawn or alerted on partially formed bars, which helps avoid repaint-style flicker and keeps the signals clean and stable.
What is the theory behind the indicator?:
The core idea behind Order Blocks Volume Delta 3D is that not all price levels inside an order block are equal. Some prices are barely touched, while others act like magnets where candles repeatedly trade and heavy volume passes through.
The indicator first finds a swing high or swing low, waits for a clear Break of Structure (BOS), then scans the candles between the swing point and the BOS to find the price level that was touched the most. That level is treated as the POC.
From all candles in the swing-to-BOS range that interact with this POC band, the indicator looks for the earliest candle that is not already mitigated and uses that as the anchor candle for the order block:
The top of the block equals the anchor candle’s high (for a bearish OB) or the top of its wick zone.
The bottom equals the anchor candle’s low (for a bullish OB) or the bottom of its wick zone.
This “earliest valid POC-touching candle” rule makes it easier to visualize how price and volume developed from the very start of a meaningful zone, while ignoring POC touches that are already fully mitigated by the time the structure is confirmed. On top of that, each candle is split into bullish and bearish volume. If you choose a lower timeframe volume input, the tool aggregates lower timeframe candles into your chart timeframe, giving a more granular bull-versus-bear breakdown for each bar. The result is
an order block that not only shows where price moved but also which side pushed it, how aggressively, and how that balance shifted over time.
ORDER BLOCKS VOLUME DELTA 3D FEATURES:
The Order Blocks Volume Delta 3D indicator includes 4 main features:
1. Order Blocks
2. Volume Delta
3. 3D Visualization
4. Alerts
ORDER BLOCKS:
🔹What is an Order Block
An order block is a price zone where a clear displacement move began after liquidity was taken. It usually forms around the last consolidation or cluster of candles before price breaks structure with a strong move.
In this indicator, order blocks are defined as structured zones that:
Begin at the earliest unmitigated candle that interacted with the most-touched price level (POC) between swing and BOS.
Extend through the full wick range of that anchor candle.
Stretch forward in time, tracking how price continues to trade through, respect, retest, or invalidate the zone.
Are only printed once the BOS is fully confirmed on closed candles (confirmed order blocks only).
Example of bullish and bearish order blocks anchored at the earliest unmitigated candle in the POC zone:
🔹How are Order Blocks detected
The indicator uses a step-by-step, rules-based process to detect bullish and bearish order blocks. The logic is designed to match discretionary Smart Money concepts but with strict, repeatable rules.
Step 1: Detect swing highs and swing lows
Swing High: a candle whose high is higher than the highs of surrounding candles.
Swing Low: a candle whose low is lower than the lows of surrounding candles.
The Swing Length input controls how many candles are checked to the left and right.
Example of swing high and swing low detection:
Step 2: Confirm Break of Structure (BOS)
Once a swing is confirmed, the indicator waits for price to break past that swing:
Bullish BOS: price closes above a previous swing high.
Bearish BOS: price closes below a previous swing low.
To avoid “live” flicker, BOS logic is evaluated based on the previous closed candle. The order block is only confirmed once the BOS candle has fully closed and the next bar has opened. This is one of the reasons the script only shows confirmed, non-repainting order blocks.
Example of bullish BOS and bearish BOS:
Step 3: Build the POC range between swing and BOS
Between the swing candle and the BOS candle, the indicator:
Scans all candles in that range.
Tracks every price level touched using binning (POC bins).
Counts how many times each price band was touched by candle wicks.
The bin with the highest touch count becomes the POC band. This is where price traded most often, not necessarily where volume was highest.
Example of the POC band between swing and BOS.
Step 4 – Anchor the order block to the earliest valid POC candle
From all candles in the swing-to-BOS range, the indicator finds the earliest candle whose high/low overlaps the POC band and whose zone is not already mitigated. That candle becomes the anchor candle for the order block:
For a bearish OB, the block spans the anchor candle’s full wick range, with its top at the high.
For a bullish OB, the block spans the anchor candle’s full wick range, with its bottom at the low.
By requiring the anchor to be the earliest unmitigated interaction with POC, the script avoids building blocks from price action that has already been fully traded through and is less relevant.
Step 5: Extend and manage the order block
Once created, the block:
Extends to the right by a configurable number of candles (Extend Zones).
Continues until it is invalidated by wick or close, depending on the chosen method.
Can show retest labels when price revisits the zone after creation.
Is included or excluded from display depending on the Show Nearest and Hide Invalidated Zones settings.
Example of active and invalidated OB.
🔹Order Block Settings
◇ Swing Length
Swing Length controls how sensitive swing highs and lows are.
Lower Swing Length: Swings form more frequently, which leads to more frequent BOS events and order block formations.
Higher Swing Length: Only larger, more meaningful swings are detected, which leads to less frequent BOS events and less order block formations.
◇ Invalidation
Invalidation determines how an order block is considered “mitigated” or no longer valid.
Wick: For bullish OBs, if price wicks completely through the bottom of the zone, the order block is invalidated. For bearish OBs, if price wicks completely through the top, the order block is invalidated.
Close: For bullish OBs, the block is invalidated only when a candle closes below the bottom. For bearish OBs, it is invalidated only when a candle closes above the top.
Example of wick invalidation:
Example of close invalidation:
◇ Show Nearest
Show Nearest limits how many active order blocks are displayed based on proximity to current price. For example, a value of 2 will display only the two nearest bullish order blocks and two nearest bearish order blocks.
Chart with Show Nearest set to 3:
◇ Extend Zones
Extend Zones define how many candles forward each order block should project beyond the right most candle on the chart.
Chart with Extend Zones set to 10:
◇ Retest Labels
When enabled, the indicator prints labels on every clean retest of an active order block, as long as that block remains valid. Key points:
A retest label is only printed once the retest candle has fully closed – you always see confirmed retests, not intrabar tests.
Retest labels are positioned on the actual retest candle so you can visually see which bar interacted with the zone.
In addition, if multiple retests occur in quick succession, the indicator applies a built-in three-candle buffer between retests. That means only the first valid retest within each three-bar window is labeled (and can trigger an alert), helping to reduce clutter while still highlighting meaningful interactions with the zone.
Example of retest labels on bullish and bearish order blocks.
◇ Hide Invalidated Zones
Hide Invalidated Zones controls whether mitigated/invalidated blocks stay drawn.
Enabled: Only currently valid, unmitigated order blocks are shown (subject to Show Nearest)
Disabled: Both active and invalidated order blocks are displayed.
VOLUME DELTA:
🔹What is Volume Delta
Volume delta measures the difference between buying and selling volume. Instead of only showing “how much volume traded”, it separates volume into bullish and bearish components.
In this indicator:
Bullish volume = volume from candles (or lower timeframe candles) that closed higher.
Bearish volume = volume from candles that closed lower.
Delta % shows how dominant one side was compared to the total.
Example of bullish and bearish order blocks with volume delta and total volume.
🔹How is Volume Delta calculated?
The indicator uses a flexible, timeframe-aware volume engine.
1. Choose a Volume Delta Timeframe.
If the selected timeframe is equal to or higher than the chart timeframe, the indicator simply uses chart-volume per candle.
If the selected timeframe is lower than the chart timeframe (for example, 1‑minute volume on a 5‑minute chart), the indicator pulls all lower timeframe candles for each chart bar and sums them.
2. Split each bar into bull and bear volume.
For each contributing candle:
If close > open → its volume is added to bullish volume.
If close < open → its volume is added to bearish volume.
If close == open → its volume is split evenly between bullish and bearish.
3. Aggregate for each order block.
For each order block:
The indicator loops once from the swing candle to the BOS candle.
It records every candle that touches the POC band.
For each touching candle, it adds its bull and bear volumes (either directly from chart candles or from aggregated lower timeframe candles).
Total volume = bullish volume + bearish volume
Delta % = (bullish volume or bearish volume / total volume ) * 100, depending on which side is dominant.
🔹Volume Delta Settings:
◇ Display Style
Display Style controls how the volume delta is drawn inside each order block:
Horizontal:
Bullish and bearish fills extend horizontally from left to right.
The filled strip sits along the base of the block, with a bull vs bear gradient.
Vertical:
Bullish and bearish fills stretch vertically inside the zone.
The bullish percentage controls how much of the block is filled with the “dominant” color.
Example of Horizontal display style.
Example of Vertical display style.
◇ Volume Delta Timeframe
Volume Delta Timeframe tells the indicator whether to use chart volume or lower timeframe volume. When set to a lower timeframe, the indicator aggregates all lower timeframe candles that fall inside each chart bar, splitting their volume into bullish and bearish components before summing.
Using a lower timeframe:
Increases precision for how volume truly behaved inside each bar.
Helps reveal hidden absorption and aggressive flows that a higher timeframe candle might hide.
Example of volume delta based on chart timeframe.
Example of volume delta based on lower timeframe than chart(same OB as above)
◇ Display Total Volume
When enabled, the indicator prints the total volume for each order block as a label positioned inside the zone, near the bottom-right corner. This total is the sum of bullish and bearish volume used in the delta calculation and gives you a quick sense of how “heavy” the trading was in that block compared to others.
Example of total volume label inside multiple order blocks.
◇ Show Delta %
Show Delta % draws a small text label on the strip of the block that displays the dominant side’s percentage. For example, a bullish block might show “72%” if 72% of all volume inside that POC band came from bullish volume.
Example of Delta %:
3D VISUALIZATION:
The 3D Visualization feature turns each order block into a 3D plot.
🔹What the 3D Visualization does:
Wraps the order block with side faces and a top face to create a 3D bar effect.
Uses delta percentages to tilt the top face toward the dominant side.
Projects blocks into the future using Extend Zones, making the 3D blocks visually stand out.
🔹How it works:
The front face of the OB shows the standard 2D zone.
The side face extends forward in time based on the 3D depth setting.
The top face is angled depending on the Display Style and bull vs bear delta, making strong bullish blocks “rise” and strong bearish blocks “sink”.
🔹How the 3D depth setting affects visuals
Lower 3D depth:
Shorter side faces.
Subtle 3D effect.
Higher 3D depth:
Longer side faces projecting further into the future.
Stronger 3D effect that visually highlights key zones.
Example of lower 3D depth:
Example of higher 3D depth:
ALERTS:
The indicator supports alert conditions through TradingView’s AnyAlert() engine, allowing you to set alerts for the following:
New Bullish Order Block formed
New Bearish Order Block formed
Bullish OB Retest
Bearish OB Retest
Important alert behavior:
Order block alerts only fire when a new block is confirmed (after BOS closes and the next bar opens).
Retest alerts only fire when a retest candle has completely finished, matching the behavior of the visual retest labels.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
3D faces for order blocks are built using polylines. In some situations, especially when an order block’s starting point (its left edge) is beyond the chart’s left-most visible bar, the top 3D face may appear slightly irregular, skewed, or incomplete. This is purely a drawing limitation related to how the chart engine handles off-screen polyline points. Once the starting point of that order block comes into view (by zooming out or scrolling back), the 3D top face corrects itself and the visual becomes fully consistent. This issue affects only the 3D top face drawing, not the actual order-block box itself. The underlying zone, prices, and volume calculations remain accurate at all times.
If all conditions are met to create a new order block but the resulting zone would overlap an existing active order block, the new block is intentionally not created. A built-in guard prevents overlapping active zones to keep the structure clean and easier to interpret.
3D face drawing is implemented using an adaptive polyline method, which can be relatively calculation-heavy on certain symbols, timeframes, or chart histories. In some cases this may lead to calculation timeout error from TradingView.
UNIQUENESS:
This indicator is unique because it:
Anchors each order block to the earliest unmitigated candle that traded through the most-touched POC band between swing and BOS, rather than a generic “last up/down candle” or a random volume spike.
Builds a dedicated volume engine that can pull either chart timeframe volume or aggregated lower timeframe volume, then splits it into bull and bear components.
Adds 3D visualization on top of standard zones, turning each OB into a visually weighted slab rather than a flat rectangle.
Provides clean toggles (Show Nearest, Hide Invalidated Zones, Extend Zones, Display Style, Delta %, and total volume labels) so you can dial the indicator from extremely minimal to fully detailed, depending on your trading workflow.
Combined, these features make the indicator not just an order block plotter, but a complete volume‑informed structure tool tailored for traders who want to see where price actually traded and whether bulls or bears truly controlled the move inside each order block.
Apex Adaptive Trend Navigator [Pineify]Apex Adaptive Trend Navigator
The Apex Adaptive Trend Navigator is a comprehensive trend-following indicator that combines adaptive moving average technology, dynamic volatility bands, and market structure analysis into a single, cohesive trading tool. Designed for traders who want to identify trend direction with precision while filtering out market noise, this indicator adapts its sensitivity based on real-time market efficiency calculations.
Key Features
Adaptive Moving Average with efficiency-based smoothing factor
Dynamic ATR-based volatility bands that expand and contract with market conditions
Market Structure detection including BOS (Break of Structure) and CHoCH (Change of Character)
Real-time performance dashboard displaying trend status and efficiency metrics
Color-coded cloud visualization for intuitive trend identification
How It Works
The core of this indicator is built on an Adaptive Moving Average that uses a unique efficiency-based calculation method inspired by the Kaufman Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA) and TRAMA concepts. The efficiency ratio measures the directional movement of price relative to total price movement over the lookback period:
Efficiency = |Price Change over N periods| / Sum of |Individual Bar Changes|
This ratio ranges from 0 to 1, where values closer to 1 indicate a strong trending market with minimal noise, and values closer to 0 indicate choppy, sideways conditions. The smoothing factor is then squared to penalize noisy markets more aggressively, causing the adaptive line to flatten during consolidation and respond quickly during strong trends.
The Dynamic Volatility Bands are calculated using the Average True Range (ATR) multiplied by a user-defined factor. These bands create a channel around the adaptive moving average, helping traders visualize the current volatility regime and potential support/resistance zones.
Trading Ideas and Insights
When price stays above the adaptive line with the bullish cloud forming, consider this a confirmation of uptrend strength
The efficiency percentage in the dashboard indicates trend quality - higher values suggest more reliable trends
Watch for price interactions with the upper and lower bands as potential reversal or continuation zones
A flat adaptive line indicates consolidation - wait for a clear directional break before entering trades
How Multiple Indicators Work Together
This indicator integrates three complementary analytical approaches:
The Adaptive Moving Average serves as the trend backbone, providing a dynamic centerline that automatically adjusts to market conditions. Unlike fixed-period moving averages, it reduces lag during trends while minimizing whipsaws during ranging markets.
The ATR Volatility Bands work in conjunction with the adaptive MA to create a volatility envelope. When the adaptive line is trending and price remains within the cloud (between the MA and outer band), this confirms trend strength. Price breaking through the opposite band may signal exhaustion or reversal.
The Market Structure Analysis using swing point detection adds a Smart Money Concepts (SMC) layer. BOS signals indicate trend continuation when price breaks previous swing highs in uptrends or swing lows in downtrends. CHoCH signals warn of potential reversals when the structure shifts against the prevailing trend.
Unique Aspects
The squared efficiency factor creates a non-linear response that dramatically reduces noise sensitivity
Cloud fills only appear on the trend side, providing clear visual distinction between bullish and bearish regimes
The integrated dashboard eliminates the need to switch between multiple indicators for trend assessment
Pivot-based swing detection ensures accurate market structure identification
How to Use
Add the indicator to your chart and adjust the Lookback Period based on your trading timeframe (shorter for scalping, longer for swing trading)
Monitor the cloud color - green clouds indicate bullish conditions, red clouds indicate bearish conditions
Use the efficiency reading in the dashboard to gauge trend reliability before entering positions
Consider entries when price pulls back to the adaptive line during strong trends (high efficiency)
Use the volatility bands as dynamic take-profit or stop-loss reference levels
Customization
Lookback Period : Controls the sensitivity of trend detection and swing point identification (default: 20)
Volatility Multiplier : Adjusts the width of the ATR bands (default: 2.0)
Show Market Structure : Toggle visibility of BOS and CHoCH labels
Show Performance Dashboard : Toggle the trend status table
Color Settings : Customize bullish, bearish, and neutral colors to match your chart theme
Conclusion
The Apex Adaptive Trend Navigator offers traders a sophisticated yet intuitive approach to trend analysis. By combining adaptive smoothing technology with volatility measurement and market structure concepts, it provides multiple layers of confirmation for trading decisions. Whether you are a day trader seeking quick trend identification or a swing trader looking for reliable trend-following signals, this indicator adapts to your market conditions and trading style. The efficiency-based calculations ensure you always know not just the trend direction, but also the quality and reliability of that trend.

Red Bull Wings [JOAT]RED BULL WINGS - Bullish-Only Institutional Overlay
Introduction and Purpose
RED BULL WINGS is an open-source overlay indicator that combines five distinct bullish detection methods into a single composite scoring system. The core problem this indicator solves is that individual bullish signals (patterns, volume, zones, trendlines) often disagree or fire in isolation. A bullish engulfing pattern means little if volume is weak and price is far from support. Traders need confluence across multiple dimensions to identify high-probability setups.
This indicator addresses that by scoring each bullish component separately, then combining them into a weighted WINGS score (0-100) that reflects overall bullish conviction. When multiple components align, the score rises; when they disagree, the score stays low.
Why These Five Modules Work Together
Each module measures a different aspect of bullish market structure:
1. Module A - Bullish Candlestick Engine - Detects classic reversal patterns (engulfing, marubozu, hammer, 3-bar cluster). These patterns identify WHERE buyers are stepping in.
2. Module B - PVSRA Volume Climax - Measures spread x volume to detect institutional participation. This tells you WHETHER smart money is involved.
3. Module C - Demand Zone Detection - Identifies and tracks order block zones where buyers previously overwhelmed sellers. This shows you WHERE institutional support exists.
4. Module D - Trendline Channel - Builds dynamic support/resistance from pivot points. This reveals the STRUCTURE of the current trend.
5. Module E - Ichimoku Assist - Optional filter using Tenkan/Kijun cross, cloud position, and Chikou confirmation. This provides TREND PERMISSION context.
The combination works because:
Patterns alone can fail without volume confirmation
Volume alone means nothing without price structure context
Zones alone are static without pattern/volume triggers
Trendlines alone miss the micro-level entry timing
When 3+ modules agree, the probability of a valid bullish setup increases significantly
How the Calculations Work
Module A - Pattern Detection:
Bullish Engulfing - Current bullish bar completely engulfs prior bearish bar:
bool engulfingCond = isBullish() and
isBearish() and
open <= close and
close >= open and
bodySize() > bodySize()
Marubozu - Strong body with minimal wicks (body >= 1.8x average, wick ratio < 20%):
float wickRatio = candleRange() > 0 ? (upperWick() + lowerWick()) / candleRange() : 0
bool marubozuCond = isBullish() and
bodySize() >= bodySizeAvg * i_maruMult and
wickRatio < i_wickRatioMax
Hammer - Long lower wick (>= 2.5x body), close in upper third, volume confirmation:
bool hammerWick = lowerWick() >= i_hammerWickMult * bodySize()
bool hammerClose = close >= low + (candleRange() * 0.66)
bool hammerVol = volume >= i_pvsraRisingMult * volAvg
3-Bar Cluster - Three consecutive bullish closes with increasing prices and volume spike:
bool threeBarBullish = isBullish() and isBullish() and isBullish()
bool increasingCloses = close > close and close > close
bool volSpike3Bar = volume >= i_pvsraRisingMult * volAvg or
volume >= i_pvsraRisingMult * volAvg
Module B - PVSRA Volume Analysis:
Uses spread x volume to detect climax conditions:
float spreadVol = candleRange() * volume
float maxSpreadVol = ta.highest(spreadVol, ADJ_PVSRA_LOOKBACK)
bool volClimax = volume >= i_pvsraClimaxMult * volAvg or spreadVol >= maxSpreadVol
bool volRising = volume >= i_pvsraRisingMult * volAvg and volume < i_pvsraClimaxMult * volAvg
Volume only scores when the candle is bullish, preventing false signals on bearish volume spikes.
Module C - Demand Zone Detection:
Identifies zones using a two-candle structure:
// Small bearish candle A followed by larger bullish candle B
bool candleA_bearish = isBearish()
bool candleB_bullish = isBullish()
bool newZoneCond = candleA_bearish and candleB_bullish and
candleB_size >= i_zoneSizeMult * candleA_size
Zones are drawn as rectangles and tracked for retests. Score increases when price is near or inside an active zone, with bonus points for rejection candles.
Module D - Trendline Channel:
Builds dynamic channel from confirmed pivot points:
float ph = ta.pivothigh(high, i_pivotLeft, i_pivotRight)
float pl = ta.pivotlow(low, i_pivotLeft, i_pivotRight)
Pivots are stored and connected to form upper/lower channel lines. The indicator detects breakouts when price closes beyond the channel with volume confirmation.
Module E - Ichimoku Assist:
Standard Ichimoku calculations with bullish scoring:
float tenkan = (ta.highest(high, i_tenkanLen) + ta.lowest(low, i_tenkanLen)) / 2
float kijun = (ta.highest(high, i_kijunLen) + ta.lowest(low, i_kijunLen)) / 2
bool tkCross = ta.crossover(tenkan, kijun)
bool priceAboveCloud = close > cloudTop
bool chikouAbovePrice = chikou > close
Module F - WINGS Composite Score:
All module scores are combined using adjustable weights:
float WINGS_score = 100 * (nW_pattern * S_pattern +
nW_volume * S_vol +
nW_zone * S_zone +
nW_trend * S_trend +
nW_ichi * S_ichi)
Default weights: Pattern 30%, Volume 25%, Zone 20%, Trend 15%, Ichimoku 10%.

Volume Climax - Institutional volume spike
DOUBLE WINGS / MEGA WINGS - Consecutive lift-off signals
Repainting Behavior
By default, the indicator uses confirmed bars only (barstate.isconfirmed), meaning signals appear after the bar closes and do not repaint. However:
LIVE MODE - When enabled, signals can appear intrabar but may disappear if conditions change before bar close. A warning label displays when LIVE MODE is active.
Trendlines - Pivot detection requires lookback bars, so the most recent trendline segments may adjust as new pivots confirm. This is inherent to pivot-based analysis.
Demand Zones - Zones are created on confirmed bars and do not repaint, but they can be removed if price closes below the zone bottom (configurable).
Live Mode with 'Enable Visual Effect' turned off in settings:
Limitations
This is a bullish-only indicator. It does not detect bearish setups or provide short signals.
The WINGS score is a confluence measure, not a prediction. High scores indicate favorable conditions, not guaranteed outcomes.
Pattern detection uses simplified logic. Not all candlestick nuances are captured.
Volume analysis requires reliable volume data. Results may vary on instruments with inconsistent volume reporting.
Ichimoku calculations add processing overhead. Disable if not needed.
Demand zones are based on a specific two-candle structure. Other valid zones may not be detected.
Trendlines use linear regression between pivots. Curved or complex channels are not supported.
Timeframe Recommendations
15m-1H: More frequent signals, useful for intraday analysis. Higher noise.
4H-Daily: Best balance of signal quality and frequency for swing trading.
Weekly: Fewer but more significant signals for position trading.
Adjust lookback periods and thresholds based on your timeframe. Shorter timeframes may benefit from shorter lookbacks.

Tradix COR Report Index📊 Tradix COT Report Index
The Tradix COT Report Index is an advanced market sentiment and positioning tool built on official Commitment of Traders (COT) Report data, designed to reveal how major market participants are truly positioned, beyond what price alone can show.
Instead of focusing on short-term price movements, the COT Report Index analyzes real futures positioning reported to the CFTC and categorizes it into three key groups:
Commercials – hedgers and so-called smart money
Non-Commercials – institutions, funds, and large speculators
Retail / Non-Reportables – small traders and crowd positioning
Raw positioning data (Long − Short) is transformed into a normalized 0–100 index, allowing traders to instantly identify extreme market sentiment, structural imbalances, and potential turning points — without manually interpreting complex COT tables.
🧠 How the Tradix COT Index Works
The index evaluates current net positions within a historical range (typically the last 52 weeks). This contextual approach makes it easy to see:
when Commercials are at extreme long or short levels
when speculative positioning becomes overcrowded
when the market reaches structural imbalance, increasing the probability of a mean-reversion or trend shift
By standardizing positioning data, the Tradix COT Index allows cross-market comparison, making it equally useful for indices, commodities, currencies, and futures-based CFDs.
🎯 How Traders Use It
The Tradix COT Report Index is not an entry signal tool.
Instead, it acts as a high-timeframe confirmation and market context indicator, commonly used for:
identifying long-term market bias
spotting divergences between price and positioning
confirming trend exhaustion or accumulation phases
filtering trades to align with institutional positioning
When combined with technical analysis, seasonality, and risk management, the COT Index provides a statistical edge rooted in real positioning data, not opinions or lagging indicators.
⚠️ Important Notes
COT data is updated weekly, not in real time
Best used on higher timeframes (Daily, Weekly)
Designed to enhance decision-making, not to replace trading systems
