Ha Smooth Scalperha smooth scalper
ha smooth scalper is a trend-following and scalping tool built around smoothed heikin-ashi logic, real structure trend locking, multi-timeframe confirmation, higher-timeframe filtering, protected structure levels, clean candle coloring, and a compact professional dashboard.
the goal of this indicator is to help traders stay with the real trend instead of reacting to every small candle color change.
in a strong bullish slope, the tool can keep the chart bullish until a real protected swing low is broken.
in a strong bearish slope, the tool can keep the chart bearish until a real protected swing high is broken.
this makes the trend view cleaner and helps reduce false flips during strong directional moves.
main concept
most candle-based systems change color too quickly.
a single weak red candle inside a strong bullish trend should not always mean the trend is bearish.
a single weak green candle inside a strong bearish trend should not always mean the trend is bullish.
ha smooth scalper solves this by combining:
smoothed heikin-ashi calculation
real structure lock
protected swing highs and swing lows
multi-timeframe agreement
extra higher-timeframe confirmation
trend cloud
optional smooth candle mode
professional dashboard
how the trend works
the indicator first builds smoothed heikin-ashi candles from the chart data.
then it uses a structure lock system to decide if the market is really bullish or bearish.
bullish trend
the market stays bullish while price respects the protected swing low.
small bearish candles inside the bullish slope do not automatically flip the trend.
the trend changes to bearish only when the protected support structure is broken.
bearish trend
the market stays bearish while price respects the protected swing high.
small bullish candles inside the bearish slope do not automatically flip the trend.
the trend changes to bullish only when the protected resistance structure is broken.
protected structure level
the protected structure line shows the key level that must break before the trend can truly change.
in a bullish trend, this level is usually below price.
in a bearish trend, this level is usually above price.
for beginners, this is one of the most important parts of the tool.
if the market is bullish and price stays above the protected structure, the bullish trend remains valid.
if the market is bearish and price stays below the protected structure, the bearish trend remains valid.
smooth lock candle mode
smooth lock candle mode is designed to keep chart colors aligned with the real structure trend.
when enabled:
bullish structure keeps candles bullish
bearish structure keeps candles bearish
minor counter-trend candles are ignored
color changes only happen after real structure breaks
this mode is useful for traders who want a cleaner trend view and fewer emotional exits.
multi-timeframe confirmation
the indicator includes six selectable timeframes.
each timeframe can be enabled or disabled.
the panel shows whether each selected timeframe is bullish or bearish.
the minimum timeframe agreement setting controls how many selected timeframes must agree before a signal is accepted.
example:
if six timeframes are enabled and the minimum agreement is set to three, at least three selected timeframes must agree with the signal direction.
higher values create fewer but cleaner signals.
lower values create more signals but with more risk of noise.
extra htf confirmator
the extra higher-timeframe confirmator is an additional filter designed to reduce weak buy and sell signals.
it can confirm direction using:
ema slope plus price
or heikin-ashi direction
when enabled, long signals require bullish higher-timeframe confirmation.
short signals require bearish higher-timeframe confirmation.
this is useful because many losing trades happen when lower-timeframe signals go against the larger trend.
signal logic
long signal
a long signal can appear when:
the structure flips bullish
enough selected timeframes agree
the extra htf confirmator agrees
the trend mode allows long entries
the impulse filter confirms body expansion
short signal
a short signal can appear when:
the structure flips bearish
enough selected timeframes agree
the extra htf confirmator agrees
the trend mode allows short entries
the impulse filter confirms body expansion
full confluence star
a star appears when all selected timeframes agree with the signal direction.
this is a stronger confluence condition, but it should still be used with proper risk management.
dashboard
the dashboard is designed to give a fast view of the market.
it shows:
chart trend
six timeframe directions
multi-timeframe agreement
extra htf confirmation
structure lock status
protected structure price
smooth lock candle state
last signal
the panel uses a clean grey professional style and can be moved around the chart.
how to use the indicator
step 1: check the chart trend
start with the first dashboard row.
if the chart trend is bullish, focus mainly on long setups.
if the chart trend is bearish, focus mainly on short setups.
beginners should avoid trading directly against the displayed structure trend.
step 2: check the protected level
look at the protected structure level.
in a bullish trend, this is the important level below price.
if price stays above it, the bullish structure remains valid.
in a bearish trend, this is the important level above price.
if price stays below it, the bearish structure remains valid.
step 3: check timeframe agreement
look at the six timeframe rows.
cleaner long conditions usually appear when most selected timeframes are bullish.
cleaner short conditions usually appear when most selected timeframes are bearish.
step 4: check the htf confirmator
if the extra htf confirmator is enabled, wait for it to agree with the trade direction.
bullish htf confirmation supports long setups.
bearish htf confirmation supports short setups.
step 5: wait for a signal
a long signal marks a bullish structure transition with confirmation.
a short signal marks a bearish structure transition with confirmation.
do not trade every signal blindly.
always check trend context, support and resistance, volatility, session timing, and risk placement.

important settings
pre-smooth length
controls the first smoothing applied to price before the heikin-ashi calculation.
lower values react faster.
higher values are smoother.
post-smooth length
controls smoothing after the heikin-ashi calculation.
higher values reduce noise and false movement.
lower values make the tool more reactive.
slow baseline length
controls the slow baseline used for trend context and pullback logic.
structure pivot strength
controls how strong a swing high or swing low must be before it can become a protected structure level.
lower values react faster.
higher values create stronger but slower structure levels.
structure break confirmation
close mode requires candle close beyond the protected level.
wick mode reacts faster but can be noisier.
structure break buffer
adds an atr buffer beyond the protected level before the structure is considered broken.
higher buffer creates fewer trend flips.
lower buffer creates faster flips.
minimum timeframes agreeing
controls how many enabled timeframes must agree before a signal is allowed.
higher values are stricter.
lower values are more aggressive.
extra htf confirmator
adds a higher-timeframe direction filter to help avoid weak lower-timeframe signals.
smooth lock candle mode
keeps the visible candle color aligned with the structure trend until a real structure break happens.

Indicator
ha macd nemesisHA Nemesis is a Heikin Ashi based MACD oscillator designed to make momentum shifts easier to read in a separate pane.
Instead of plotting a classic MACD only as two lines and a histogram, this script rebuilds the MACD movement into synthetic Heikin Ashi candles. The goal is to give a cleaner visual view of momentum direction, candle pressure, signal-line interaction, and possible exhaustion areas.
The indicator includes three display modes:
* Hybrid: shows the Heikin Ashi MACD candles with the histogram.
* MACD: focuses on the candle-style MACD structure.
* Histogram: focuses mainly on histogram expansion and contraction.
The blue candles represent bullish momentum pressure. The red candles represent bearish momentum pressure. The signal line can be used as a reference for momentum confirmation. When the Heikin Ashi MACD closes above the signal line, bullish pressure is improving. When it closes below the signal line, bearish pressure is increasing.
The upper red background bands mark extended bullish momentum areas where upside pressure may be stretched. The lower blue background bands mark extended bearish momentum areas where downside pressure may be stretched. These zones are not automatic reversal signals. They are visual areas where traders can watch for reaction, slowdown, or continuation.
The script also includes optional bar coloring modes:
* MidLine: colors bars based on whether the oscillator is above or below zero.
* Candles: colors bars based on the Heikin Ashi MACD candle direction.
* Signal Cross: colors bars based on the relationship between the HA MACD close and the signal line.
* Extremities: highlights potential extended momentum conditions.
Alerts are built around two main ideas:
1. Heikin Ashi MACD crossing the signal EMA.
2. Heikin Ashi MACD candle color changing from bearish to bullish or bullish to bearish.
To reduce weak signals, the alert module uses candle filters. It can ignore small, weak, or doji-like HA MACD candles. If tracking is enabled, a raw signal can remain pending until a valid candle confirms the move, instead of firing immediately on a weak candle.
Beginner example 1:
The oscillator has been red and below the signal line. A blue Heikin Ashi MACD candle appears and closes above the signal line. If the candle passes the body and range filters, the alert can mark a bullish momentum shift. A beginner can then check whether price is also reclaiming a support level, breaking a local structure, or moving with trend confirmation.
Beginner example 2:
The oscillator has been blue and above the signal line. A red Heikin Ashi MACD candle appears and closes below the signal line. If the move is confirmed by a valid candle, it can warn that bullish momentum is fading. This can help traders avoid late long entries or watch for a possible pullback.
Beginner example 3:
The oscillator reaches the upper red band and then starts printing weaker blue candles or flips red. This can suggest that upside momentum is losing strength. It does not mean price must reverse, but it gives a useful warning to slow down and check resistance, volume, and price structure.
Beginner example 4:
The oscillator reaches the lower blue band and then starts printing stronger blue candles or crosses above the signal line. This can suggest that downside pressure is weakening. It is usually safer to wait for price confirmation rather than entering only because the oscillator is in an extreme zone.
Suggested use:
HA Nemesis is best used as a momentum-reading tool. It can help identify when pressure is shifting, when momentum is stretched, and when a cleaner candle-based confirmation appears. It works well alongside support and resistance, trend direction, volume, or a higher-timeframe bias.
Useful settings:
* Use Hybrid mode for the most complete visual read.
* Use Histogram mode when you want a cleaner momentum-only view.
* Keep the weak candle filter enabled if you want fewer low-quality alerts.
* Increase the minimum body or range values to make alerts more selective.
* Use bar coloring only if you want the oscillator state reflected directly on price bars.
Limitations:
This indicator does not predict future price movement. Strong trends can remain extended for a long time, and crosses can fail during choppy markets. Alerts should be treated as momentum events, not as guaranteed buy or sell signals. Always combine the indicator with price action and proper risk management.

Heiken Ashi Break of Structure with Market Structure [by Hampeh]Description
This indicator is designed to identify high-probability trading entries by combining the trend-smoothing capabilities of Heiken Ashi candles with the powerful concept of a Break of Structure (BOS).
To enhance signal quality and reduce false signals, it incorporates a mandatory market structure confirmation filter, requiring a Higher Low (HL) to be established before a buy signal and a Lower High (LH) before a sell signal. The indicator automatically provides dynamic Stop Loss levels and generates real-time alerts to streamline the trading process.
How It Works
The indicator's logic is built upon several key components that work together to filter for high-quality setups.
1. Heiken Ashi Foundation The script uses Heiken Ashi candles as its foundation to reduce market noise and provide a clearer visualization of the underlying trend. This smoothing effect makes it easier to identify sustained directional moves.
2. Break of Structure (BOS) Identification The core entry trigger is a Break of Structure, defined as:
Bullish BOS (Buy Signal): The indicator first identifies a downtrend phase (red Heiken Ashi candles). It marks the opening price of this phase (redOpen). A buy signal is triggered when the trend reverses (turns green) and the Heiken Ashi close price breaks above this redOpen level.
Bearish BOS (Sell Signal): Conversely, it identifies an uptrend phase (green Heiken Ashi candles) and marks its opening price (greenOpen). A sell signal is triggered when the trend reverses (turns red) and the Heiken Ashi close price breaks below this greenOpen level.
3. Market Structure Confirmation (HL/LH Filter) This is the key filter that validates the strength of a potential new trend:
Higher Low (HL) for Buys: A buy signal is only considered valid if the low point of the most recent downtrend phase is higher than the low point of the previous downtrend phase. This confirms a classic "Higher Low" market structure, indicating that buying pressure is increasing.
Lower High (LH) for Sells: A sell signal is only considered valid if the high point of the most recent uptrend phase is lower than the high point of the previous uptrend phase. This confirms a "Lower High" structure, suggesting that selling pressure is building.
4. Dynamic Stop Loss Calculation The indicator provides a logical and dynamic Stop Loss for every signal:
For Buy Signals: The Stop Loss is automatically placed just below the lowest low (lowestLow) recorded during the entire preceding downtrend (red candle) phase.
For Sell Signals: The Stop Loss is placed just above the highest high (highestHigh) recorded during the entire preceding uptrend (green candle) phase.
5. Signal Generation and Visualization
A final BUY signal is generated only when all conditions are met: a bullish BOS occurs and it is preceded by a confirmed Higher Low.
A final SELL signal is generated only when all conditions are met: a bearish BOS occurs and it is preceded by a confirmed Lower High.
When a valid signal is triggered, a label appears on the chart displaying the entry price and the calculated Stop Loss. A corresponding alert is also fired with detailed trade information.
Summary of Strategy
In essence, this indicator waits for a pullback (a Heiken Ashi color change), confirms that the pullback respects bullish or bearish market structure (HL or LH), and then triggers an entry upon a Break of Structure in the intended direction.

RSI in Candlestick MODEDescription:
The "RSI Bar" indicator is a versatile tool designed to enhance your technical analysis on trading charts. This Pine Script™ code calculates the Relative Strength Index (RSI) for open, close, high, and low prices, and represents the results as bars on the chart. The bars are color-coded based on whether the closing RSI is higher or lower than the opening RSI.
Additionally, the indicator incorporates advanced features such as Pareto analysis and Gaussian smoothing. The Pareto analysis helps identify significant lows and highs in the RSI, providing insights into potential trend reversals. The Gaussian smoothing further refines the analysis, contributing to a more accurate representation of the average RSI trend.
Key Features:
RSI calculation for open, close, high, and low prices.
Color-coded bars for easy visualization of RSI trends.
Pareto analysis to highlight key RSI levels indicating potential reversals.
Gaussian smoothing for improved trend analysis and visualization.

Fisher Transform of MACD w/ Quantile Bands [Loxx]Fisher Transform of MACD w/ Quantile Bands is a Fisher Transform indicator with Quantile Bands that takes as it's source a MACD. The MACD has two different source inputs for fast and slow moving averages.
What is Fisher Transform?
The Fisher Transform is a technical indicator created by John F. Ehlers that converts prices into a Gaussian normal distribution.
The indicator highlights when prices have moved to an extreme, based on recent prices. This may help in spotting turning points in the price of an asset. It also helps show the trend and isolate the price waves within a trend.
What is Quantile Bands?
In statistics and the theory of probability, quantiles are cutpoints dividing the range of a probability distribution into contiguous intervals with equal probabilities, or dividing the observations in a sample in the same way. There is one less quantile than the number of groups created. Thus quartiles are the three cut points that will divide a dataset into four equal-size groups (cf. depicted example). Common quantiles have special names: for instance quartile, decile (creating 10 groups: see below for more). The groups created are termed halves, thirds, quarters, etc., though sometimes the terms for the quantile are used for the groups created, rather than for the cut points.
q-Quantiles are values that partition a finite set of values into q subsets of (nearly) equal sizes. There are q − 1 of the q-quantiles, one for each integer k satisfying 0 < k < q. In some cases the value of a quantile may not be uniquely determined, as can be the case for the median (2-quantile) of a uniform probability distribution on a set of even size. Quantiles can also be applied to continuous distributions, providing a way to generalize rank statistics to continuous variables. When the cumulative distribution function of a random variable is known, the q-quantiles are the application of the quantile function (the inverse function of the cumulative distribution function) to the values {1/q, 2/q, …, (q − 1)/q}.
What is MACD?
Moving average convergence divergence ( MACD ) is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of a security’s price. The MACD is calculated by subtracting the 26-period exponential moving average ( EMA ) from the 12-period EMA .

Better Heiken-Ashi Candles w/ Expanded Source Types [Loxx]Better Heiken-Ashi Candles w/ Expanded Source Types is an indicator to compare regular candles to traditional Heiken-Ashi candles to "better" Heiken Ashi candles. This indicator and comparison study appears an oscillator. The purpose of this indicator is to demonstrate a better way to calculate HA candles and also to demonstrate expanded source types. This indicator is meant to be used by advanced Pine Coders who wish to add fine-tuning to their indicators and strategies.
What are Heiken Ashi "better" candles?
The "better formula" was proposed in an article/memo by BNP-Paribas (In Warrants & Zertifikate, No. 8, August 2004 (a monthly German magazine published by BNP Paribas, Frankfurt), there is an article by Sebastian Schmidt about further development (smoothing) of Heikin-Ashi chart.)
They proposed to use the following :
(Open+Close)/2+(((Close-Open)/(High-Low))*ABS((Close-Open)/2))
instead of using :
haClose = (O+H+L+C)/4
According to that document the HA representation using their proposed formula is better than the traditional formula.
What are traditional Heiken-Ashi candles?
The Heikin-Ashi technique averages price data to create a Japanese candlestick chart that filters out market noise.
Heikin-Ashi charts, developed by Munehisa Homma in the 1700s, share some characteristics with standard candlestick charts but differ based on the values used to create each candle. Instead of using the open, high, low, and close like standard candlestick charts, the Heikin-Ashi technique uses a modified formula based on two-period averages. This gives the chart a smoother appearance, making it easier to spots trends and reversals, but also obscures gaps and some price data.
What's going on with this indicator?
- First, we have the options to select the candlestick type: Regular, HA, HA Better
- Next, and to demonstrate the expanded source types, I've added a simple moving average. In the drop down for the SMA source you'll notice something very different from the typical PulseWire source selector. Here's how to decode the new names for the sources:
Close = close
Open = open
High = high
Low = low
Median = hl2
Typical = hlc3
Weighted = hlcc4
Average = ohlc4
Average Median Body = (open+close)/2
Trend Biased = (see code, too complex to explain here)
Trend Biased (extreme) = (see code, too complex to explain here)
... for HA and HA better, see the same set up as above but with different open and close values to calcualate the other source types
- For the HA better calculations, we run the close value through either an Adaptive, Kaufman, or T3 smoothing filter. The length for these smoothing filters, either 2 or 3, can be found in the code and is a constant value that shouldn't be changed. This smoothing is in inline with what is described in the article mentioned above
- Lastly, I've placed an SMA over the oscillator so that the user can test out the various sources explained above

Market Bias (CEREBR)Hello Everyone. I hope you are all doing great. It's been a long time since I posted my first script here, and I got a lot of response from that.
So, I thought I should share this script also to everyone, and anyone that may find it useful. Personally, I use it to tell the general market conditions.
Here's how I works : The script tries to determine the overall direction of the market, using smoothed Heiken Ashi candles. The coloring system (using bright and dark colors) is an attempt to detect strong market and weak market conditions. There's also an oscillator within the script, but for now it isn't plotted. Credits to @jackvmk, I used part of his open-script code in this indicator.\
I have considered using the slope of the indicator plot as a filter for ranging market conditions. The plot goes relatively flat in 'flat' markets. However, I have not done anything about that yet. Maybe some other time.
I hope you find this useful. If you find a way to use this, please share it with the community in the comment section.
NOTE: THIS IS BY NO MEANS FINANCIAL ADVICE. You'll have to make your studies and come up with a way to apply this indicator to your trading style and strategy.
By the way, I would be going with the name 'CEREBR' for any subsequent scripts I release from now on.
Happy Trading, guys. Indicator
