Multi-Timeframe MA & VWAP FrameworkOverview
The Multi-Timeframe MA & VWAP Framework is a highly customizable, all-in-one trend and volume tracking tool. Designed for professional and minimalist traders, this framework allows you to build the ultimate moving average ribbon without cluttering your charts.
Instead of stacking multiple indicators, this single script gives you access to 10 fully customizable moving averages, 3 true time-based Rolling VWAPs, and integrated SSL Hybrid baselines—all controllable via clean master toggles and right-edge labels.
🔑 Core Features
1. 10 Fully Customizable Moving Averages
Configure up to 10 independent MAs. For each line, you can select:
Type: SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, RMA, HMA, ALMA, DEMA, TEMA, and standard VWAP.
Timeframe: Native Multi-Timeframe (MTF) support. Plot 1H, 4H, 1D, or 1W MAs directly on your intraday chart.
Style: Line, Circles, Crosses, Stepline, or Area.
Color & Visibility: Individual toggles for every single MA.
2. Group Master Toggles
To keep your chart perfectly clean, MAs are grouped into three categories (1-4, 5-8, 9-10). Use the Master Toggles to instantly show or hide entire groups without changing individual settings.
3. True Rolling VWAP Engine
Standard VWAPs reset every session. This framework includes a custom-built True Rolling VWAP engine that uses arrays to track exact time windows.
Set a Multiplier and a Timeframe (e.g., 7x 1D for a 7-day Rolling VWAP, or 2x 4H for an 8-hour Rolling VWAP).
The engine dynamically prunes old volume data, ignoring weekends and chart gaps for mathematically accurate institutional volume tracking.
4. Integrated SSL Hybrid Baselines (MAs 9 & 10)
By selecting "SSL1" or "SSL2" for MA 9 and 10, you activate the SSL Hybrid baseline logic. This plots a Hull Moving Average (HMA) baseline with Keltner Channel bands. The baseline dynamically changes color (Bullish, Bearish, Neutral) based on price location, providing instant trend confirmation.
5. Smart Right-Edge Labels
Keep track of your MAs without guessing. The framework places tiny, clean labels on the right edge of the chart detailing the MA Type, Length, and Timeframe (e.g., EMA 50 4H). Label sizes are adjustable (Tiny, Small, Normal).
6. Optional Pair Fills
Enable translucent fills between paired MAs (1-2, 3-4, 5-6, etc.). The fill color dynamically changes based on which MA is currently higher, acting as a subtle visual cue for trend shifts and volume divergence.
🛠 How to Use This Framework
Start Clean: By default, MAs 1-4 are active. Use these for your primary trend (e.g., VWMA/SMA 50 combinations).
Add MTF Anchors: Enable MAs 5-8 and set their timeframes to higher periods (e.g., 4H, 1D, 1W) to see where higher-timeframe price action is respecting moving averages.
Activate SSL for Trend Confirmation: Turn on MA 9 or 10, set the type to SSL1/SSL2, and watch the baseline dynamically shift colors to confirm your trade direction.
Add Institutional Volume: Enable the Rolling VWAPs. A 1x 1D RVWAP gives you the standard daily anchor, while a 30x 1D RVWAP gives you a macro 30-day institutional average.
Declutter: If you only want to look at the SSL and a single EMA, uncheck the Master Toggles for the groups you don't need.

FVG Confluence [AFD]This Pine Script v6 overlay documents confirmed fair-value gaps (FVGs), optional order blocks (OBs), and overlap evidence from two selected higher timeframes. Its main output is a confluence band whose label identifies the two source timeframes and zone types when two same-direction zones overlap by a configurable amount.
This is a descriptive chart tool. It records what the source zones have done, how they overlap, and how price has interacted with them. It does not provide trade instructions, manage positions, or forecast an outcome.
────────── 1. Overview ──────────
The script has three related layers:
- Chart FVGs: three-candle fair-value gaps detected on the chart timeframe.
- Optional Order Blocks: the last opposite candle identified before a confirmed swing break.
- MTF Confluence: an overlap between source zones from Compare timeframe 1 and Compare timeframe 2.
By default, MTF confluence bands and labels showing their source timeframes and zone types are visible. Raw higher-timeframe source boxes are hidden by default and can be shown per timeframe with a choice of FVGs, Order Blocks, or both. Standalone chart FVG boxes and chart OB boxes are off by default; each appears when its respective Enable FVGs or Enable Order Blocks setting is turned on.
────────── 2. How FVGs are detected ──────────
A bullish chart FVG is recorded when the current confirmed bar's low is above the high from two bars earlier. A bearish FVG is the inverse. The Minimum gap filter removes gaps smaller than the selected ATR multiple or tick distance. The default filter is 0.05 ATR.
The same gap test is evaluated in each selected higher-timeframe context. Higher-timeframe events are admitted once per source origin time, which prevents the same source event from producing duplicate records on the chart.
────────── 3. FVG lifecycle ──────────
Each FVG keeps its original boundaries and tracks penetration using the selected Mitigation / fill rule:
- FRESH - price has not touched or entered the gap.
- TESTED - price has touched or entered the gap but has not reached its 50% midpoint.
- MITIGATED - price has reached the 50% midpoint but has not fully traversed the gap.
- FILLED - price has fully traversed the gap. Filled chart FVGs are removed unless Keep filled FVGs is enabled.
Wick mode uses the candle range for penetration and state changes. Close mode requires the candle close to reach the relevant boundary. The rule is applied consistently to chart FVGs, chart order blocks, and higher-timeframe FVG source zones. Higher-timeframe OB sources track penetration with the same FRESH → TESTED → MITIGATED lifecycle as chart OBs, so raw HTF OB labels show state and fill percentage. A higher-timeframe zone (FVG or OB) that is fully traversed becomes FILLED: it stays tracked internally, is hidden by default, can be revealed per timeframe with the Show 100% filled zones settings, and never feeds confluence.
A boundary touch counts as TESTED, while the fill percentage measures penetration through the original zone. A boundary-only test can therefore still display 0% Filled until price advances farther into the zone.
Shrink on partial fill changes only the displayed near edge of a chart FVG. The original boundaries and 50% midpoint remain available for fill measurement and lifecycle identity. Order Blocks have their own OB partial fill setting (off by default) that shrinks OB boxes the same way. Breaker blocks restart measurement from the near edge in the new direction.
The FVG Labels settings can show the percentage filled and, optionally, the FVG lifecycle state. Labels can be placed inside the box or to its right, with user-selected offset, size, and text color.
────────── 4. Order blocks ──────────
When enabled, the script confirms swing points using Swing strength and searches the configured OB candle lookback for the last opposite candle before a confirmed break. It records bullish and bearish blocks separately and limits the retained count per side.
OBs use the same Wick or Close interaction basis as FVGs. They can move from FRESH to TESTED and MITIGATED. If Show breakers is enabled, a block that is crossed changes direction and becomes a BREAKER with a new penetration measurement. If breakers are disabled, the crossed block is removed. When OB partial fill is enabled, OB boxes shrink their near edge inward as confirmed penetration advances, and breaker blocks restart measurement from the near edge in the new direction.
Chart OB detection, retention, and drawing are controlled together in the Order Blocks settings and are off by default.
────────── 5. MTF confluence ──────────
Confluence uses only the two selected comparison timeframes. The chart timeframe is not a confluence source. Both comparison timeframes must be strictly higher than the chart timeframe and must be different from each other. If either timeframe is invalid, or either source is disabled, the corresponding confluence path is not active.
The script compares source zones by:
1. Direction - bullish zones pair only with bullish zones, and bearish zones pair only with bearish zones.
2. Original geometry - qualification uses the original source boundaries, not a partially shrunk display edge.
3. Minimum overlap - the positive overlap must meet the configured threshold, measured as a multiple of the confirmed TF1 timeframe ATR and subject to a minimum tick. Using a fixed-timeframe ATR keeps band qualification stable when the chart timeframe changes.
4. Source details - a band retains both source origins, source timeframes, source types, and its own formation time.
The source HTF calculation uses shifted, completed higher-timeframe values and confirms pivot-based events before admission. This avoids using a developing higher-timeframe event, but it introduces confirmation delay. A source zone may therefore appear after the originating higher-timeframe movement rather than during it.
Raw HTF FVGs / OBs can be shown separately for inspection, with a per-timeframe choice of FVGs, Order Blocks, or both. The type selection is display-only; all raw zones still feed confluence. Each timeframe has its own raw partial fill setting (TF1 raw partial fill and TF2 raw partial fill) that shrinks the near edge of that timeframe's raw zone boxes (both FVGs and OBs) as penetration advances, and its own Show 100% filled zones setting (off by default) that keeps fully traversed raw zones visible. Raw HTF labels show state and fill percentage for all zone kinds. Confluence is FVG-only by default. If Include Order Blocks in confluence is enabled, same-direction FVG/OB, OB/FVG, and OB/OB overlaps can also qualify. Any band containing an OB is labeled STATIC because it does not have the pure FVG/FVG fill cycle.
────────── 6. Reading confluence bands ──────────
The band color describes overlap density, not a rating:
- One active overlap - the single-overlap color.
- Two active overlaps - the two-overlap color.
- Three or more active overlaps - the dense-overlap color.
Density counts active same-direction confluence records that share positive price overlap and are currently visible under the state and filled-band filters. Changing those visibility filters can therefore change a displayed band's density color. Density does not measure historical performance, reliability, or the future behavior of a level.
For pure FVG/FVG bands, Confluence partial fill can shrink the displayed band as confirmed penetration advances. Confluence fill % label reports penetration through the original overlap. The fill percentage is descriptive and is not a forecast.
Confluence labels can show:
- Source timeframes and source types.
- The number of overlapping active bands.
- Fill percentage for pure FVG/FVG bands on its own label line.
- FRESH, TESTED, PARTIAL, FILLED, or STATIC state, shown together with age on one horizontal metadata line.
- Age in chart bars or HH:MM:SS.
- Visits and breaks in the tooltip.
Fresh, Tested, Partial, and Filled visibility can be controlled independently. Filled confluence bands are hidden by default. Nearby labels are grouped onto a shared horizontal row and spaced by a configurable number of chart bars; this changes label placement only and does not change the bands.
────────── 7. Alerts ──────────
The script exposes two confirmed-bar alert conditions for chart-timeframe detections:
- FVG formed - a new confirmed chart-timeframe FVG.
- Order Block formed - a new confirmed chart-timeframe order block.
There are no built-in alerts for confluence formation, fills, mitigation, state changes, or position management. You can create PulseWire alerts from the two available conditions.
────────── 8. Settings and defaults ──────────
FVG Drawings controls chart FVG detection, drawing, per-side retention, Wick or Close measurement, ATR or tick filtering, partial display shrink, filled-zone retention, lifecycle display, and bullish/bearish colors.
FVG Labels controls fill percentage, position, right-side offset, text size, and label color.
Order Blocks controls OB detection, drawing, per-side retention, swing strength, candle lookback, breaker behavior, partial fill, and colors.
MTF Confluence controls the MTF master enable, the two comparison timeframes, source inclusion, raw HTF visibility, and — independently per timeframe — raw zone types (FVGs, Order Blocks, or both), raw partial fill, filled-zone visibility, and source color. It also controls HTF retention, HTF lookback days, and raw labels. The default comparison pair is 30 minutes and 60 minutes.
Confluence Evidence controls partial fill, fill labels, OB-containing overlap inclusion, minimum overlap, maximum retained bands, source-detail labels, filled-band visibility, overlap colors, state and age display, label collision spacing, age format, and state filters.
Visuals controls the confluence label size.
────────── 9. How to use ──────────
1. Start on a time-based chart timeframe below both comparison timeframes. The default 30-minute and 60-minute pair is intended to be used from a lower chart timeframe such as 15 minutes.
2. Leave both comparison source checkboxes enabled when you want TF1 × TF2 confluence. Selecting the same comparison timeframe twice does not create a valid pair.
3. Use the default FVG-only mode when you want all bands to have the FVG lifecycle and fill measurement. Enable OB inclusion only when STATIC FVG/OB, OB/FVG, or OB/OB overlap evidence is useful to your analysis.
4. Use Wick or Close consistently with how you want penetration measured. Close mode ignores wick-only penetration for state and fill progression.
5. Turn on raw HTF zones, or enable chart FVGs/OBs in their own settings sections, only when you need to inspect those layers. They are intentionally hidden in the default chart view.
6. Use the state, age, fill, density, and source details to understand what produced a band and how price has interacted with it. Do not treat color density as a score.
────────── 10. What this script does not do ──────────
- It is not a strategy and does not provide backtests, win rates, performance statistics, or position sizing.
- It does not place orders, manage risk, or generate trade instructions.
- It does not use the chart timeframe as a confluence source.
- It does not create confluence from opposite-direction zones.
- It does not guarantee that every historical FVG or OB remains visible. Source retention, HTF lookback, state filters, filled-band visibility, and PulseWire drawing limits can remove or hide records.
- It does not eliminate higher-timeframe confirmation delay. A valid setting can show no band when no recent confirmed source pair qualifies.
- It does not claim that every chart, symbol, session, or timeframe will produce the same number of zones. ATR, tick size, available history, market hours, and price behavior affect detection.
────────── 11. Limitations and developing values ──────────
Lifecycle mutations, HTF source admission, confluence identity, fill measurement, and state changes are gated on confirmed bars. Boxes and labels are redrawn on the last chart bar so their right edge, text, colors, and collision layout reflect the current view. This means the display can update while the underlying lifecycle remains confirmation-gated.
Changing the chart timeframe or either comparison timeframe clears the prior MTF context and rebuilds it from confirmed source history. The selected comparison timeframes must be higher than the new chart timeframe. If the new context has no retained qualifying source pair, the confluence view can be empty until confirmed source events are available. Band qualification uses the confirmed TF1 timeframe ATR, so the same source pairs qualify regardless of the chart timeframe. In the Wick basis, fill percentages and lifecycle states are chart-timeframe independent; in the Close basis, penetration follows chart-bar closes, so fill percentages and states can legitimately differ between chart timeframes.
The script is capped by PulseWire drawing limits and by its own retention settings. Chart and higher-timeframe zone arrays prune older records according to their configured limits. The confluence maximum is a retained-record capacity: when a new qualifying pair arrives beyond the cap, the oldest record is removed first. A crowded chart can therefore show fewer drawings than the underlying detection logic considered. Higher-timeframe records are also limited by the HTF lookback-days and max-zones-per-HTF/type settings.
The implementation is confirmation-gated, but this description does not make an absolute non-repainting claim. Verify the current publication on PulseWire with the intended symbols, timeframes, input changes, reload behavior, and Bar Replay before relying on its historical appearance.
────────── 12. Originality ──────────
FVGs, order blocks, pivots, ATR filters, and multi-timeframe analysis are established market-analysis concepts. The implementation focus here is showing which two source zones created each overlap and tracking its lifecycle: each confluence band preserves the source records that formed it, keeps immutable original overlap geometry, separates display-only partial fill from band identity, and exposes state, age, fill, visit, break, source, and overlap-density information instead of hiding them inside an unexplained composite value.
The source is open for inspection under the MPL 2.0 license. The calculations and visual labels are intended to be read as a record of price interaction, not as a promise about what happens next.

Multi-Timeframe Squeeze Board LiteWhat it shows
Multi-Timeframe Squeeze Board — Lite answers one question at a glance: "Where is this symbol compressed, and which way is momentum leaning, on every timeframe that matters?" For the chart's symbol it displays a compact table with one row per timeframe — 15m, 1h, 4h, Daily, Weekly — and two readings per row:
- Sqz — the TTM Squeeze compression state as a colored dot, using the standard three-level cascade: orange = high squeeze (deepest compression), red = mid squeeze, black = low squeeze, green = no squeeze (volatility released / normal).
- Mom — the squeeze momentum oscillator as a colored arrow using the classic 4-color scheme: aqua = positive and rising, blue = positive but falling, yellow = negative but rising, red = negative and falling. The arrow points up when momentum is increasing bar-over-bar and down when it is decreasing.
A stacked squeeze (orange/red dots on several adjacent timeframes) marks a market coiling across horizons; the momentum colors tell you which side the pressure is building on.
How it works
Each row runs the full TTM Squeeze calculation on its own timeframe via request.security() with lookahead = barmerge.lookahead_off (no future data, ever):
1. Bollinger Bands: SMA(close, 20) basis, 2.0 × population standard deviation.
2. Keltner Channels: the same SMA(close, 20) basis, with band width = SMA of True Range over 20 bars (simple average of TR — not Wilder's ATR) at three multipliers: 1.0, 1.5, 2.0.
3. A squeeze is on when the Bollinger Bands sit fully inside the Keltner Channel on both sides. The narrower the Keltner band that still contains the BB, the deeper the compression — hence the 1.0-multiplier band defines the high squeeze, 1.5 the mid, 2.0 the low.
4. Momentum is the linear regression of price's deviation from the average of the Donchian midline and the SMA, over the same 20 bars.
By default the board evaluates confirmed bars only: every row shows the last fully closed bar of its timeframe, so a dot or arrow never changes after it appears. See Limitations for the tradeoff.
Inputs
- Squeeze length — lookback for BB, KC and momentum (default 20, the canonical TTM setting).
- Confirmed HTF bars only — ON (default): stable, non-repainting readings that lag up to one bar of each row's timeframe. OFF: rows track the still-forming higher-timeframe bar — more current, but the reading can flip until that bar closes.
- Table position / Table size — where the board sits and how large it renders.
How to use it
Apply it to a 15m chart (or lower) so all five rows populate. Scan the Sqz column top-to-bottom: multiple orange/red dots stacked across timeframes indicate multi-horizon compression — historically the precondition for expansion moves. Then read the Mom column for directional lean while the compression resolves. The board is a context tool: it tells you where energy is stored, not when or in which direction it must release.
Limitations — please read
- Confirmed-bar lag: with the default non-repainting mode, the Weekly row updates once per week, the Daily row once per day, etc. That is the honest cost of stability. Turning the toggle off shows the live forming bar instead, and those readings can change until the bar closes.
- Rows below the chart's timeframe show "–": Pine's request.security() cannot reliably reconstruct lower-timeframe series, so instead of showing a possibly wrong dot the board declines to show one. Use a 15m chart to see everything.
- A squeeze has no direction. Compression means stored energy, not a buy or sell signal. The momentum color is a lean, not a prediction.
- Warm-up: each timeframe needs about 20 bars of history before its row populates (shown as "·" until then).
This board covers one symbol — the chart's.
Indicator
Multi-Timeframe Trend Matrix [JOAT]Multi-Timeframe Trend Matrix
Reads several timeframes with several methods at once and scores their agreement into a single alignment signal — without lookahead.
What it is
Trading a single timeframe blinds you to the larger context; watching many by eye is slow and inconsistent. This indicator evaluates a grid of timeframes and trend methods, turns the whole grid into one alignment score, and signals when top-down agreement forms. It is an original multi-timeframe aggregation tool built to avoid the common pitfalls of higher-timeframe requests.
How it works
• The matrix — a set of higher and lower timeframes is each assessed by several independent trend methods (such as a moving-average relationship, a directional trend measure and a momentum read). Each cell of the grid returns simply bullish or bearish, so the picture is easy to interpret.
• No lookahead — every higher-timeframe value is pulled with lookahead disabled, so the indicator never borrows future data from an unclosed higher-timeframe bar. This is a deliberate, disclosed design choice that keeps the signals honest and non-repainting on historical bars.
• Alignment score — the grid is condensed into one signed score representing how strongly all timeframes and methods agree. Full agreement produces a strong reading; a split grid produces a weak, near-neutral one.
• State-machine signals — a Buy fires when alignment turns sufficiently bullish from a non-bullish state; a Sell is the mirror. Requiring a state change means the matrix will not re-signal the same direction repeatedly — the signals are self-spacing.
Trade levels
Each signal draws a red risk box to the ATR stop and a green reward box to the third target, with inner dividers and right-edge labels for entry, stop and each take-profit at your R multiples.
The dashboard
An adjustable alignment-matrix panel displays every timeframe-by-method cell as bullish or bearish, a bipolar alignment-score headline, the active signal, a conviction estimate, and a live first-target-before-stop tally from closed bars only. The grid shows exactly which timeframes agree and which disagree.
How to use it
• Works on any asset; pick a base timeframe and let the grid supply the higher-timeframe context.
• Favour entries when the grid is broadly aligned; be cautious when it is mixed.
• Use it as a top-down filter alongside your own entry method, or take its aligned signals directly.
Settings
The set of timeframes, the methods and their lengths, the alignment threshold, ATR risk multiple and target R multiples, plus visual and dashboard controls.
Originality and usefulness
The contribution is the aggregation framework: a disciplined, lookahead-free multi-timeframe, multi-method grid condensed into one transparent alignment score with a state-machine trigger. Seeing the full grid — not just a final arrow — is what lets a trader trust or override the signal for themselves.
Notes and limitations
• Higher-timeframe values update only as those bars close, so alignment can shift when a higher-timeframe bar completes — this is expected and prevents lookahead bias.
• Strong alignment can still precede a reversal; agreement is context, not certainty.
• The tally reflects only past bars on the current chart and is not a forecast.
• Educational and analytical tool, not financial advice.

NIMBUS [ThrowMaster]NIMBUS — Ichimoku, Reimagined
Classic Ichimoku is brilliant at one question: "Where is the market right now — above, below, or inside equilibrium?" It is far weaker at a second question every trader actually asks: "What is the market about to do?" NIMBUS keeps the timeless Ichimoku framework intact and adds three dimensions built to close that gap — while staying, above all, honest about what it is: a context compass, not a signal service.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT NIMBUS ADDS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⭐ Kumo Calendar — Twist Countdown
Here is a fact most traders overlook: the cloud in front of price is already fully drawn. It is built entirely from bars that have ALREADY closed, then shifted forward. That means the next Kumo twist — the moment Senkou Span A and B swap places — is knowable in advance. NIMBUS scans the forward cloud and counts the exact number of bars until that twist reaches price, and warns you when a thin (weak-support) section is approaching. Ichimoku's most-criticised trait, its lag, becomes a schedule you can read ahead of time.
🩵 Breath — Volume-Reactive Cloud
A traditional cloud shows only price geometry; two identical-looking clouds can hide wildly different conviction. NIMBUS makes the cloud breathe: it grows more solid on high-participation bars and fainter on quiet ones, using a rolling volume percentile. Strength becomes something you feel at a glance, not something you have to calculate. (If a symbol reports no volume, the cloud simply falls back to a fixed opacity — no errors, no false readings.)
🎯 Tenkan / Kijun Cross Clarity
The Tenkan–Kijun cross is one of Ichimoku's core events, yet on most charts it hides in a tangle of lines. NIMBUS marks it precisely: a teal circle at the exact price and bar of a bullish cross, coral for bearish. No hunting, no guessing.
◈ Alignment Hints
When four independent Ichimoku dimensions agree — price vs cloud, Tenkan vs Kijun, cloud colour, and the lagging read — AND price reclaims or loses the cloud on a confirmed bar, NIMBUS prints a small diamond. Think of it as a puzzle-game hint: a nudge to look at the right place at the right time. It is deliberately NOT a buy or sell command, and it never gives a target.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HOW IT WORKS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
NIMBUS uses the standard Ichimoku engine — Tenkan (9), Kijun (26), Senkou Span A/B, and the lagging span, all fully adjustable. "Price vs cloud" always compares price to the cloud value formed 25 bars ago — the cloud actually sitting beneath price — so the reading reflects real, settled structure. The Breath layer reads a 100-bar volume percentile. The Twist Countdown walks the already-shifted forward cloud bar by bar. The dashboard summarises everything in one compact, theme-aware panel with a mobile Compact Mode.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HOW TO USE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• Read the cloud for trend context: above = bullish structure, below = bearish, inside = balance/chop.
• Watch the Twist Countdown to anticipate when the cloud's support/resistance character is about to flip — useful for planning, not for firing blind.
• Let Breath tell you whether a move carries participation or is running on fumes.
• Treat Hints as a reason to zoom in and do your own analysis, never as an instruction.
• Combine with your own risk management. NIMBUS describes context; your plan decides the trade.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
ON REPAINTING (honest)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Once a bar closes, every Tenkan/Kijun/Span value is fixed and never redrawn. Hints and cross circles are all confirmed on bar close, so a printed mark cannot later disappear. The forward cloud is built only from closed bars, so it is fixed the moment it appears. Like all Ichimoku tools, values on the CURRENT, still-forming bar update in real time until that bar closes — this is inherent to the framework, not hidden repainting, and it is documented directly in the code comments.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT MAKES IT ORIGINAL
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
NIMBUS is not another line pack bolted onto Ichimoku. The Kumo Calendar reframes the forward cloud as a countdown rather than a static shape; Breath encodes participation into the cloud's opacity; and the whole tool is presented as an explicit, self-aware CONTEXT instrument — it tells you what the market is, and refuses to pretend it knows your trade. The code is fully open for you to read, study, and learn from.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
NOTE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
No indicator predicts the future or guarantees results, and NIMBUS makes no such claim. It is a decision-support and context tool. Markets involve risk; always use independent judgement and sound risk management. Not financial advice.

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

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.

Indicator
Intraday MTF SR Zones | ProjectSyndicateIntraday MTF S/R Zones · Reaction Matrix builds the session's support and resistance from real pivot structure on four timeframes at once, then power-ranks every level so you know which ones actually deserve a trade. Each session it pulls confirmed pivot highs and lows from M30, H1, H2 and H4 by default, wraps each one in a uniform ATR-scaled band, fuses overlapping levels into single confluence zones tagged with every timeframe involved, and grades all of them 0–10. The whole tool runs on one idea: not all levels are equal — a level that four timeframes agree on, that rejected price with a violent wick, and that stands far out from the local mean is a different animal from a shallow M30 pivot, and it should not look the same on your chart.
This is a reaction matrix, not a signal generator. It tells you where the auction has previously reacted, how many timeframes are stacked at that price, how hard price was rejected there, and which zone is the strongest one on the chart right now. The read is directional only in the sense that you can see, at a glance, whether the session's structure is stacked with resistance above or support below.
🟢🔴 Summary how to trade this more details below, read entire guide. Two clean approaches: react at the zone, or trade the break of it. Prefer STRONG / ELITE grades and ◆ confluence zones — the shallow low-graded zones tag constantly and mean little. The dashboard's Nearest Res / Nearest Sup and Room in ATR tell you instantly whether a trade from here has space to work. Runs on any intraday timeframe, i.e. M1 M5 M10 M15 M30 H1 H2 H4 +.
🧱 The Pivot Core the only source of truth — Every zone in this tool descends from a confirmed swing pivot, never from an indicator line, a moving average or a projected level. Pivot strength is set left/right 5/5 by default, so a pivot must be the highest high or lowest low of its neighborhood before it counts. Each of the four timeframe slots runs its own pivot scan independently and reports back. Nothing is drawn from a guess.
📐 Four-Timeframe Stacking — Four independent slots, each toggleable, defaulted to M30 · H1 · H2 · H4. A pivot found on H4 spawns a zone; so does one on M30. They are graded very differently — timeframe rank is the heaviest input to the score — but they all live on the same chart, in the same session, in one coherent ladder. Every zone is labeled with the exact timeframe set that produced it, so an M30·H1·H4 zone announces itself as such.
BTCUSD
◆ Confluence Merge the signature feature — This is where the tool separates from a stack of plain pivot lines. Within a session, same-side zones whose bands overlap within a 0.35 ATR tolerance are fused into a single confluence zone. The merged zone inherits a wick-weighted average level, the deepest prominence, the highest timeframe rank, and the union of every timeframe that contributed to it. It is then re-scored, tagged with a ◆ marker, painted in the dedicated confluence color, and given a scoring bonus for every extra timeframe present. Instead of four near-identical lines cluttering the same price, you get one zone that reads M30·H1·H2·H4 and grades near-elite. Merging repeats until the session settles, so three or four overlapping levels collapse cleanly into one.
🏷️ The 0–10 Strength Engine — Every zone carries a live grade with stars and a tier word FORMING → WEAK → MODERATE → STRONG → ELITE. The score is a weighted blend of four independently measurable properties, and all four weights are user-adjustable:
▪️ Timeframe Rank 0.40 — an H4 pivot outranks an M30 pivot. The dominant term.
▪️ Confluence 0.28 — how many timeframes are stacked at this price, plus a flat bonus per extra timeframe.
▪️ Rejection Wick 0.18 — the actual wick beyond the candle body at the pivot, normalized against ATR. A pivot that speared price and snapped back scores higher than a soft rounded turn.
▪️ Pivot Prominence 0.14 — how far the pivot stands out from the local mean, normalized against ATR. An isolated extreme outranks a pivot buried inside congestion.
Read the grade as a descriptive conviction ranking for which zone deserves your attention — it is not a backtested win-rate. A score filter hides everything below a level you choose, so you can strip the chart down to STRONG and ELITE only.
GBPUSD
🗓️ Session Engine & Auto-Cleanup — A fresh stack of zones is born on every new bar of the session timeframe daily by default. Zones span exactly their own session and close cleanly at the boundary — no bleed into the next day. The current session extends a configurable number of bars to the right so live price has room to interact with it. The last N sessions are kept 3 by default and older ones are deleted automatically. Within each session a hard cap 14 by default keeps the stack clean: once it is hit, the weakest-scoring zones are dropped first, so what survives on your chart is by construction the strongest structure of that session.
🎨 Strength-Graded Shading — Four shades per side, graded weak → elite, with opacity scaling directly off the score. Weak zones stay faint, elite zones render solid, and confluence zones take the dedicated confluence color regardless of side. You are reading conviction with your peripheral vision before you read a single number. Resistance runs the teal family, support the magenta-red-purple family, and the whole palette plus transparency floor, opacity span and borders are fully user-editable.
🔎 In-Zone Labels — Each zone is labeled at its center with a ▲ resistance / ▼ support / ◆ confluence marker, the exact timeframe set, the star grade, the X.X/10 score and the tier word. Labels can be restricted to the latest session only, or turned off entirely for a pure heatmap look. Four label sizes.

📋 Live Dashboard — A compact panel that answers the questions you actually ask a levels tool:
▪️ Per-timeframe breakdown — how many resistance and how many support zones each of the four timeframes currently holds, with a ▲ RES / ▼ SUP / ● BAL bias tag per timeframe. Structure stacked above or below, at a glance, timeframe by timeframe.
▪️ ★ Strongest — the single highest-graded zone on the chart: its price, its timeframe set, its score and tier, marked ◆ when it is a confluence zone.
▪️ ▲ Nearest Res / ▼ Nearest Sup — the closest zone above and below price, each with its price, timeframe set and score. Your immediate context.
▪️ Price Position & Room — whether price sits nearer support or nearer resistance, and the distance between the two nearest zones expressed in ATR. Room tells you whether there is anything to trade for.
▪️ Session state — zones this session vs total kept, confluence count, average score, current session Asian / London / NY, pivot setting, merge state, per-session cap and the strong-zone threshold.
🔒 Non-Repainting — Higher-timeframe data is requested with lookahead disabled, and zones only spawn on confirmed bars. A pivot is only a pivot once its right-hand bars have printed, so a level appears after its confirmation delay and then never moves, never repaints, and never disappears retroactively. Past sessions are frozen exactly as they were drawn. This is the honest tradeoff of pivot structure: confirmation costs you bars, and in exchange the level is real.
🔔 Native Alerts — New Resistance Level and New Support Level fire the moment a fresh pivot zone forms on any enabled timeframe. Price At Resistance Zone and Price At Support Zone fire on a touch. Price At STRONG Zone fires only when price tests a zone above your strong-zone threshold — the one alert most people will actually run.

🔧 Fully Customizable — Four timeframe slots and their toggles, pivot strength left/right, resistance/support toggles, session timeframe, sessions kept, per-session zone cap, right-extension, zone thickness by ATR multiple or percent of price, ATR length, merge toggle and merge distance, confluence bonus, all four scoring weights, the score filter, the strong-zone threshold, label visibility/size/scope, the full eight-shade palette, confluence color, transparency floor, opacity span, borders, and dashboard position and size — all adjustable.
🎯 Why this is different — Most S/R tools draw every pivot they find and leave you staring at forty identical lines, all weighted the same, with no way to tell the H4 confluence shelf apart from an M30 blip. This one grades them, merges them, caps them and shades them by conviction, so the chart itself does the filtering. You read the level, the timeframes stacked at it, and the conviction score — at a glance.

🎯 How To Trade It — Two Approaches
Everything hinges on the grade. A FORMING or WEAK zone is noise you can see; a STRONG or ELITE ◆ confluence zone is where multiple timeframes have already fought. Trade the graded zones, and use Room in ATR to confirm the trade has somewhere to go.
◾ 1 REACT at the zone — trade the rejection
This is the tool's core use. Price arrives at a high-graded zone and you fade the touch back toward the opposite side of the ladder.
▪️ Setup: wait for price to reach a STRONG / ELITE zone — ideally a ◆ confluence zone carrying three or four timeframes. Check the dashboard: is it the ★ Strongest zone? Is Room to the opposite zone worth the risk?
▪️ Entry: on rejection out of the zone, with your own confirmation — a wick, an engulfing close, a lower-timeframe structure break. The zone is the location; it is not the trigger.
▪️ Stop: on the far side of the zone band. The band has real thickness for exactly this reason. A decisive close through the zone means the level failed and the thesis is wrong.
▪️ Targets: the Nearest Sup / Nearest Res on the opposite side, then step through the ladder tier by tier, banking partials at each graded zone.
⚖️ The cleanest version: price runs into a ◆ confluence zone that four timeframes share, grades ELITE, sits at the top of an empty stretch of Room, and rejects on the first touch. First touches of fresh high-graded zones are the setup; the fifth retest of the same zone is not.
◾ 2 TRADE THE BREAK — the zone flips role
The mirror case, and the one that saves you when approach 1 fails.
▪️ Setup: a decisive close through a high-graded zone — especially a ◆ confluence zone — is meaningful information. It took real displacement to break a level that many timeframes were defending.
▪️ Entry: on the retest of the broken zone from the other side, once it has flipped from resistance to support or support to resistance.
▪️ Stop: back on the original side of the zone. If price reclaims it, the break failed.
▪️ Targets: the next graded zone in the direction of travel, then the next. Use the per-timeframe bias tags on the dashboard: breaking into a region where every timeframe shows ▼ SUP means thin structure ahead.
⚖️ Watch the ★ Strongest readout. When the strongest zone on the chart breaks and holds as a flip, that is the session's structural event.
Rule of thumb: ⭐ First touch of a fresh STRONG / ELITE ◆ zone with Room behind it → look for the rejection trade. ⭐ Decisive close through a high-graded zone → stop fading it, wait for the retest and trade the flip. ⭐ Low grades, no Room, or a zone already tested repeatedly → no trade. The score exists to tell you when to do nothing.
⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE: Intraday MTF S/R Zones · Reaction Matrix maps and ranks pivot-derived support and resistance across four timeframes. The 0–10 score is a descriptive conviction ranking built from timeframe rank, confluence, rejection wick and pivot prominence — it is not a backtested win-rate, and this indicator tracks no trade outcomes and reports no performance statistics. Zones are locations, not entries. Pivot confirmation means a level appears only after its right-hand bars have printed. These zones are decision support, not a standalone trade trigger. Always combine them with your own strategy, price-action confirmation and risk management. Past behavior does not guarantee future results. Indicator
OrderFlow FVG Matrix MTF | ProjectSyndicateOrderFlow FVG Matrix reads every Fair Value Gap through the lens of the order flow that created it, across three timeframes at once, then commits a single shaded imbalance zone only where the gap, the delta behind it, and the timeframes agree. Instead of drawing every three-candle gap as an identical box, it detects gaps on your chosen higher timeframes, decomposes the volume that formed each one into buying versus selling, scores the imbalance 0–10 on six order-flow-native factors, and fuses overlapping gaps into one Confluence zone tagged with every timeframe that produced it. Each zone carries its own maroon/green buy-versus-sell split, net delta, absorption and relative-volume read, is normalized to a universal height so none dominate the chart, re-scores as price develops, and is neutralized the moment price mitigates it — while a live diagnostics panel shows the full multi-timeframe order-flow picture driving every zone on the symbol and timeframe you trade.
🧠 Order-Flow Core — the central idea. Every gap is graded not by its size but by the flow that built it. Each of the three candles that form an FVG has its volume split into buying versus selling from where price closed within that candle's range, then summed across the formation to yield buy volume, sell volume, net delta, and a wick-rejection absorption estimate; relative volume compares that participation to a rolling baseline. This is what separates a gap born of violent one-sided displacement from a thin, low-conviction gap that merely looks the same. Because the read is derived from price geometry rather than lower-timeframe intrabar requests, it keeps working even where only tick volume is available — gold, FX, and similar instruments — instead of going blank.
📐 Multi-Timeframe FVG Detection — three lenses, one map. Gaps are detected independently on three fully configurable timeframes (default H1 · H2 · H4), with bullish and bearish detection separately toggleable. Each timeframe runs its own self-contained detector on its own confirmed bars, and a gap must clear an ATR (or percent-of-price) filter to qualify. Higher-timeframe data is read with no lookahead, so a zone's price, class and statistics are fixed once its bar closes — the zones do not repaint.
🔗 Confluence Merging — no overlapping zones, ever. When two same-direction zones overlap within an adjustable ATR tolerance, they fuse into one. The order flow is re-aggregated — volumes and delta summed, buy/sell percentage and relative volume recomputed, the band re-centered on the weighted midpoint — and the zone is re-labeled Confluence FVG · H1·H2·H4 with every contributing timeframe, its strength lifted by a confluence bonus for each extra timeframe stacked in. The consolidation repeats until nothing overlaps, so the chart never stacks bands or duplicates labels: three timeframes agreeing at a level read as one stronger zone, not a cluttered pile.
📏 Universal Zone Height. Every gap is normalized to a single fixed height — ATR-based or a percentage of price — centered on the gap's midpoint. Thin gaps and wide gaps render as uniform bands, so no imbalance becomes a tall tower and the chart stays clean; the strength score, not the raw gap size, tells you which levels actually matter.
⭐ 6-Factor Strength Engine (0–10). Each zone is scored on six order-flow-native factors, every weight adjustable: Displacement (gap size versus ATR), Delta Alignment (did buying confirm a bullish gap, or selling a bearish one), Relative Volume (participation versus baseline), Flow Dominance (how one-sided the split was), Middle-Candle Body (displacement conviction), and Absorption (wick-rejection volume). The result maps to a tier word rendered inside the zone — WEAK · SOFT · FAIR · HIGH · PEAK — and to a star read on the dashboard. Read it as a confluence / cleanliness rank: how textbook the imbalance is, not a guaranteed outcome.
🎯 Shaded Zones + Order-Flow Split Bars. Each zone is a maroon (bearish) or dark-green (bullish) shaded band, opacity graded by strength, with the tier word spelled across gradient cells and a timeframe / confluence badge pinned to it. To the right of price, a two-bar order-flow split renders the bearish percentage (maroon) over the bullish percentage (dark green), and a stat label prints net delta, total volume and relative volume — so the participation behind every level is visible at a glance and factored into how it is graded.
🩶 Self-Invalidation + Filled History. Zones extend forward and re-score as price develops. The instant price mitigates a zone — by Touch, 50% fill, or full fill, your choice — it is neutralized: recolored to a muted dark-grey and frozen, so a filled level reads as spent context, never as a live signal. A history cap keeps grey levels from accumulating into clutter, and you can drop filled zones entirely for a strictly-live view.
📊 Live Multi-Timeframe Dashboard. A compact institutional panel tracks, in real time on your chart: a per-timeframe grid — active bull and bear zone counts plus directional bias for each of your three timeframes; Key Zones — the strongest zone, plus the nearest zone above and below price, each with its timeframe set and star score; Flow Pressure — aggregate FVG net delta with an ACCUM / DISTRIB regime read, live chart delta, relative volume, CVD bias and session; and running active / confluence / filled counts. It is a live read of the engine's current state on your symbol — not a backtest and not a printed statistic.
🎚️ Declutter & Conviction Controls. A tight set of dials governs how busy and how selective the chart is: Min Strength filters out weak imbalances; Merge Distance (×ATR) sets how aggressively overlapping zones fuse; Max Zones caps the live set; the mitigation rule and filled-history toggle decide how decisively price must close through a level and whether history stays; and the universal-height and flow-bar dimensions tune density. Tighten for a clean, high-conviction map; loosen for full structural context.
🎨 Clean Themed Visuals. A dark institutional palette built around maroon and dark green — the classic imbalance / order-flow color language — colors the zone bands, tier cells, flow bars, badges, labels and dashboard into one coherent look, so class and conviction read at a glance. Every zone, bar and mitigated color is exposed as an input, so you can match the scheme to your chart.
🔔 Alerts. Fires on a new bullish MTF FVG, a new bearish MTF FVG, and any new MTF FVG — formatted for manual or automated use — so you can be pinged when a fresh imbalance forms rather than watching the chart.
🔧 Fully Customizable. Every component is exposed: the three timeframes and direction toggles; the ATR / percent gap filter and ATR length; universal-height mode and size; all six strength weights, the min-strength gate and the relative-volume baseline; merge distance and confluence bonus; the mitigation rule and filled-history tone; every zone, bar and mitigated color; badge, tier-word, flow-bar and stat-label visibility and dimensions; extend length and max zones; and dashboard position and size.
🎯 Why this is different. Most FVG tools draw every three-candle gap as an identical box and leave interpretation to you — a gap that formed on violent one-sided displacement looks exactly like a thin, low-conviction one, and three timeframes worth of gaps stack into an unreadable ladder. This engine reads the order flow behind each gap, scores it 0–10 on six flow-native factors, fuses agreeing timeframes into a single labeled Confluence zone, normalizes every level to one height, re-scores it on development, and neutralizes it the instant it fills — then surfaces the whole multi-timeframe rationale on a live panel. You are looking at classified, ranked, self-invalidating imbalances with the order-flow reasoning attached, not an undifferentiated field of boxes.
🚀 Where to use it. Symbol- and timeframe-agnostic — it runs on forex, indices, metals, crypto and equities across intraday and higher timeframes. Because the score and split use volume, it is sharpest on instruments where volume is meaningful; the range-position delta model is specifically built to keep working on tick-volume instruments like gold and FX, where lower-timeframe intrabar data is unavailable, and it degrades gracefully rather than failing. Keep the chart timeframe at or below your lowest selected zone timeframe for full detail; larger timeframes yield fewer, more significant zones, smaller ones a more reactive map.
🎯 How to trade it. Apply it to a liquid instrument and let the zones and dashboard populate. Read the per-timeframe bias and Flow Pressure for the prevailing order-flow lean, and favor high-strength and Confluence zones — where multiple timeframes and the delta agree — over isolated single-timeframe gaps. Treat each zone as a decision level: plan entries on a controlled retest into the band, define invalidation by the same decisive close-through that neutralizes the zone on the chart, and manage targets against the next opposing zone or your own R model. Use Min Strength, Merge Distance and Max Zones to set chart density — stricter for a clean, high-conviction map, looser for full structure — and use the star score to focus on the cleanest imbalances.
⚠️ Important — this is a decision-support tool, not a standalone buy/sell system, and it makes no performance guarantees. The order-flow read is a volume-delta estimate derived from price geometry — and, on many instruments, from tick volume — not true exchange order flow or bid/ask tape; treat it as a well-behaved approximation, not the book. The 0–10 score is a confluence / cleanliness rank that describes how textbook an imbalance is; it is not a probability or a promise of outcome, and the dashboard is a live read of the engine's current state, not a backtest or forecast. Zones confirm on closed higher-timeframe bars, so they print with the built-in confirmation lag and you should always wait for a settled level. Always pair it with higher-timeframe context, your own analysis, and disciplined risk management, and test it on your market and timeframe before trading it live. Indicator
5 Advanced MAs MTF🔵 OVERVIEW
5 Advanced MAs MTF is a professional moving averages indicator designed for traders who need to see multiple trend layers on a single chart simultaneously, each one with its own independent configuration and — above all — its own timeframe.
Unlike typical "ribbon" or "multi-MA" indicators on the market, which display several averages all computed on the active chart's timeframe, this indicator allows each of the 5 averages to have its own timeframe. You can have your EMA 8 on the 15-minute chart, your EMA 20 on the 1-hour, your EMA 50 on the 4-hour, and your SMA 200 on the daily, all plotted on the same 15-minute chart. That turns the indicator into a complete multi-timeframe control panel without needing to open four separate charts or saturate your installed indicators list.
🔶 KEY FEATURES
• 5 fully independent moving averages — each one configured separately and enabled or disabled individually.
• True multi-timeframe per MA — the core differentiator. Each MA can read its value from a higher, lower, or equal timeframe relative to the active chart. Leave it empty to use the chart's current timeframe.
• 9 moving average types — SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, HMA, VWMA, TEMA, KAMA, and JMA. The last three (TEMA, KAMA, JMA) are implemented with their original formulas, no shortcuts. JMA uses Mark Jurik's standard defaults (Phase = 50, Power = 2).
• Configurable source per MA — Close, Open, High, Low, hl2, hlc3, ohlc4.
• Full visual styling per MA — color, width (1 to 10), and line style (solid, dashed, or dotted).
• Smart labels — each MA can show its label directly on the line, with configurable content (type, length, timeframe, or any combination of the three). Adjustable horizontal bar offset and text size.
• Interactive summary table — placed at any of the 9 chart anchors, displaying color column, type, length, timeframe, and price distance from each MA (in percentage and absolute value). Toggle to include or exclude hidden MAs.
• 22-alert system — 10 for Price↔MA crosses (bullish and bearish for each MA), 10 for MA↔MA crosses across 5 configurable slots (you pick which MA pairs to monitor), and 2 wildcard "any cross detected" alerts. All compatible with webhooks and automation.
• Works on any market and any timeframe — equities, futures, crypto, forex, commodities. From tick charts to monthly charts.
🔹 USE CASES BY TRADER STYLE
▪️ Day trader / scalper
Configure the first 3 MAs as short EMAs (8, 20, 50) on the chart's timeframe (5m or 15m) and leave MAs 4 and 5 as SMA 200 and VWMA 100 but reading them from a higher timeframe (1H, 4H, or daily). Result: you see your fast entry signals and the higher-timeframe bias at the same time without switching charts.
▪️ Swing trader
Recommended setup: EMA 20 and EMA 50 on the active chart (1H or 4H) + SMA 200 read from daily + VWMA 100 read from weekly. This lets you watch pullbacks against the EMA 20 on your operative timeframe with immediate confirmation that the higher-timeframe bias is aligned, plus the weekly VWMA as a volume-weighted "fair price" reference.
▪️ Position trader / long-term
Enable all 5 MAs on daily or weekly to build a complete structural map of the asset. The default configuration (EMA 8, EMA 20, EMA 50, SMA 200, and VWMA 100, all on daily) covers everything from fast momentum to the institutional level, combining pure-price references (SMA 200) with volume-weighted references (VWMA 100). The summary table shows the exact distance of price from each one.
▪️ Systematic crossover trader
The MA↔MA alert slots let you configure up to 5 specific crossovers simultaneously. Classic Golden Cross / Death Cross setup: Slot 1 with MA 3 (EMA 50) crossing MA 4 (SMA 200) on daily, with an automatic alert sent to your bot's webhook or notification system.
▪️ Multi-timeframe confluence trader
The most differentiating use case. Assign each MA to a different timeframe: MA 1 on 5m, MA 2 on 15m, MA 3 on 1H, MA 4 on 4H, MA 5 on daily or weekly. The summary table shows you in real time the distance of current price from the key level of each of those timeframes. When several MAs from different timeframes converge on the same price zone, that zone becomes a high-density structural level — one of the most-used concepts among institutional traders.
⚙️ INPUTS & CUSTOMIZATION
The entire indicator is 100% configurable from the Inputs panel. Each MA has its own expandable group with 14 controls. The summary table is also fully customizable (position, text size, background/border/text colors). The JMA global parameters (Phase and Power) live in their own section so advanced users can adjust them without cluttering the individual groups.
By default, all 5 MAs are enabled with a configuration tailored for daily and swing use: EMA 8 (blue, 1D), EMA 20 (red, 1D), EMA 50 (yellow, 1D), SMA 200 (green dashed, 1D), and VWMA 100 (pink dotted, 1D). The user can modify any of the parameters or reassign the MAs to other timeframes at any moment.
🔔 ALERTS
The indicator ships with 22 precompiled alerts ready to use:
• 5 alerts "Price crosses above MA N"
• 5 alerts "Price crosses below MA N"
• 10 alerts across 5 configurable slots for MA↔MA crossovers (bullish and bearish per slot)
• 2 wildcard alerts "any cross detected"
All messages include the {{ticker}} and {{close}} placeholders so they are directly parseable by webhooks, bots, and automation systems.
❓ FAQ
Does the indicator repaint?
No. The moving averages are computed on confirmed historical data. Cross alerts fire on the bar of the cross and values are not modified retroactively. To avoid signals that appear and disappear intra-bar, set the alerts to "Once per bar close".
Does it work on any timeframe?
Yes. From tick charts to monthly. In addition, each MA can have its own higher, lower, or equal timeframe relative to the active chart. The default timeframe is the current chart's timeframe.
Why 9 MA types?
Because each type behaves differently. SMA is the pure average; EMA weights recent bars more; HMA virtually eliminates lag; KAMA adapts to volatility; JMA is the smoothest while staying responsive; VWMA weights by volume. Having all of them available lets you use the right tool for each analysis without installing several separate indicators.
What are the 5 MA↔MA alert slots for?
They let you configure specific crossovers between any pair of MAs without having to create all possible combinations. In each slot you pick the fast MA and slow MA from dropdowns and receive alerts for the bullish and bearish crossovers of that pair. Example: Slot 1 = MA 3 crosses MA 4 (classic Golden Cross / Death Cross when MA 3 = EMA 50 and MA 4 = SMA 200).
What is the best MA combination?

MTF SMA & EMAThis indicator is an all-in-one trend analysis tool designed to give traders a comprehensive macro and micro view of moving averages (SMAs & EMAs) across multiple timeframes simultaneously. It perfectly combines a dynamic, color-coded dashboard with customizable on-chart plots, allowing you to read the market trend without constantly switching timeframes.
🔥 Key Features:
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Dashboard: Instantly view SMA (5, 8, 13) and EMA (21, 34, 55, 89, 100, 144, 200, 233, 377) values for 4 distinct timeframes (20-Min, 1-Hour, 4-Hour, and 1-Day) all in one clean, right-aligned table.
Dynamic Distance Percentage: Each cell goes beyond just showing the MA value; it calculates and displays the exact percentage distance between the current live price and that specific moving average (e.g., +0.50% or -1.20%).
Visual Trend Indication (Heatmap): The dashboard acts as a trend heatmap. If the current price is above a moving average, the cell turns Teal (Bullish). If the price is below, it turns Maroon (Bearish). This allows for split-second trend identification across multiple dimensions.
Centered Live Price: The current market price is elegantly merged and centered at the top of the dashboard for quick visual reference.
On-Chart Plots: While the table shows the macro picture, the indicator automatically draws the selected moving averages for your current chart timeframe.
Highly Optimized (No Lag): Built entirely in Pine Script™ v5, the code utilizes custom type objects and grouped request.security() calls. This advanced architecture ensures maximum performance and completely bypasses the typical security call limits.
⚙️ How to Use & Customize:
Inputs Tab (Table Control): You have full control over the dashboard. Want to hide the 1-Day column? Or maybe hide EMA 377? Simply uncheck them in the inputs. The table will automatically resize and re-center the remaining data flawlessly.
Style Tab (Chart Control): You can easily toggle the visibility, color, and line thickness of the moving averages plotted directly on your chart via the indicator's Style settings.
Whether you are a scalper looking for quick pullbacks to the 20-min MAs, or a swing trader checking the 4H/1D macro trend alignment, this dashboard provides all the necessary data at a single glance. Indicator
Multi Time Score IndicatorMulti Time Score Signal Indicator is a multi-timeframe scoring indicator designed for USDJPY on the 5-minute chart.
The script evaluates price position across multiple timeframes, including 5-minute, 15-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, daily, and weekly charts. For each timeframe, it calculates where the current price is located within the recent high-low range and converts that position into a score. These scores are then combined using configurable importance weights.
A buy signal is displayed when the weighted total score rises above the sensitivity threshold. A sell signal is displayed when the weighted total score falls below zero.
Default settings:
Symbol: USDJPY
Timeframe: 5 minutes
Sensitivity: 10
Index Period: 20
5M Importance: 1
15M Importance: 2
1H Importance: 4
4H Importance: 7
1D Importance: 9
1W Importance: 10
The indicator displays buy and sell arrows, optional background coloring, alert conditions, and score values in the data window. It is designed for chart analysis and signal monitoring only. It does not place trades or perform backtesting.
This script is intended for chart analysis, backtesting support, research, and educational purposes only.

RSI Multi-Timeframe DashboardRSI Multi-Timeframe Dashboard
═══════════════════════════════════════════
WHAT IT DOES
═══════════════════════════════════════════
This tool displays the Relative Strength Index (RSI) of up to six timeframes
at once in a compact on-chart table, so you can judge momentum across the
whole timeframe stack without switching charts. Instead of reading RSI on a
single timeframe, you see how short-, medium- and higher-timeframe momentum
line up — and a consensus row summarises the overall picture.
It is designed as a CONFLUENCE tool: a way to see whether the broader market
agrees with what you're seeing on your trading timeframe.
═══════════════════════════════════════════
HOW IT WORKS
═══════════════════════════════════════════
RSI is calculated with the standard Wilder method (default length 14) on each
selected timeframe using request.security(). Each row is classified into a zone:
- Overbought — RSI at or above the overbought level (default 70)
- Oversold — RSI at or below the oversold level (default 30)
- Bullish — RSI above the midline (default 50)
- Bearish — RSI below the midline (default 50)
The "ALL" row aggregates only the enabled timeframes:
- If every enabled timeframe is oversold → "STRONG BUY ZONE"
- If every enabled timeframe is overbought → "STRONG SELL ZONE"
- Otherwise it shows the majority bias and a score, e.g. "BULLISH (4/5)"
These are descriptions of momentum conditions — not instructions to buy or sell.
═══════════════════════════════════════════
HOW TO USE IT IN A TRADE
═══════════════════════════════════════════
The core idea is alignment. Higher-timeframe RSI defines the bias; lower-timeframe
RSI helps with timing inside that bias.
Example long workflow:
1. Bias — Confirm the higher timeframes (e.g. 4H, Daily) are Bullish (above the
midline). This says the dominant momentum favours longs.
2. Timing — Wait for a lower timeframe (e.g. 5m/15m) to dip toward Oversold and
turn back up, offering a pullback entry in the direction of the higher-TF bias.
3. Confluence — A "BULLISH (5/5)" or rising consensus score adds conviction;
a "MIXED" reading is a reason to wait.
4. Management — Define your stop from price structure (recent swing), not from
RSI alone, and size the position to your own risk rules.
The short workflow is the mirror image (higher TFs Bearish, lower TF rallies into
Overbought and rolls over).
Things to respect:
- RSI can remain Overbought in a strong uptrend (and Oversold in a strong
downtrend) for a long time. "Overbought" is not automatically "sell."
- Counter-trend signals (e.g. Oversold while higher TFs are Bearish) are
lower-probability and best avoided or treated as scalps only.
- This indicator does not place trades, set stops, or manage risk for you.
═══════════════════════════════════════════
SETTINGS
═══════════════════════════════════════════
- RSI — length, source, and the overbought / oversold / midline levels.
- Timeframes to monitor — up to 6 slots, each with an on/off toggle and its own
timeframe. Set them equal to or higher than your chart timeframe.
- Style — table position, text size, and your own bullish / bearish colours.
═══════════════════════════════════════════
ALERTS
═══════════════════════════════════════════
- All timeframes oversold
- All timeframes overbought
- Consensus turned bullish (majority crossed above the midline)
- Consensus turned bearish (majority crossed below the midline)
═══════════════════════════════════════════
NOTES, REPAINTING & LIMITATIONS
═══════════════════════════════════════════
- Monitored timeframes should be greater than or equal to your chart timeframe;
requesting a lower timeframe is not meaningful.
- Repainting: values use lookahead_off, so a higher-timeframe RSI updates live
until that bar closes — this is intended for real-time reading. The reading on
a closed higher-TF bar is final.
- RSI is a momentum oscillator, not a forecast. This dashboard organises that
information across timeframes; it does not predict price.

Obsidian Trend Relay [JOAT]Obsidian Trend Relay
Introduction
Obsidian Trend Relay is an open-source multi-timeframe trend and risk-ladder indicator. It combines zero-lag EMA logic, SuperTrend, an EMA ribbon, three higher-timeframe confirmation votes, prediction threshold rails, proximity warnings, candle coloring, risk ladder boxes, right-side price labels, and a top-right dashboard.
The script is built for users who want a directional trend context layer with structured visual planning. It does not claim to forecast price. Instead, it shows when local trend, ribbon structure, SuperTrend, and higher-timeframe votes align or conflict.
Core Concepts
1. Zero-Lag EMA Core
The zero-lag component reduces the smoothing delay of a standard EMA by comparing the first EMA against a second smoothing pass. This creates a responsive trend anchor used for reclaim and rejection logic.
// Conceptual summary
// zlema = 2 * ema(source, length) - ema(ema(source, length), length)
2. SuperTrend and EMA Ribbon
SuperTrend provides an ATR-based directional rail. The EMA ribbon checks whether fast, mid, slow, and base averages are stacked in directional order. Both must be read together with the zero-lag line.
3. Multi-Timeframe Relay Votes
Three higher-timeframe checks compare zero-lag and EMA structure using request.security() with lookahead off. The dashboard displays each vote and the total confluence score.
4. Prediction and Proximity Rails
The prediction engine creates upper/lower threshold rails around the trend anchor. Proximity warnings identify when price is near a key transition rail and may be close to a directional decision point.
5. Risk Ladder
When a relay signal appears, the script can draw a reward box, risk box, warning zone, entry, stop, and T1/T2/T3 rails. These are visual planning tools only.
Features
Zero-lag trend anchor: Responsive baseline for reclaim and rejection context
SuperTrend filter: ATR-based directional rail
EMA ribbon: Visual trend stack using multiple moving averages
Three HTF votes: Higher-timeframe confluence with lookahead off
Prediction rails: Upper/lower threshold bands around the zero-lag engine
Proximity warning: Highlights price near key trend rails
Risk ladder boxes: Draws risk, warning, reward, entry, stop, and T1/T2/T3 levels
Gradient candle tinting: Colors candles from confluence and trend state
Top-right dashboard: Shows local trend, ribbon, HTF votes, prediction, proximity, and ladder state
Confirmed-bar logic: Relay and ladder events use confirmed bars
Input Parameters
Trend Engine:
Source
Zero Lag Length
SuperTrend ATR Length
SuperTrend Factor
Ribbon Fast, Mid, Slow, and Base lengths
MTF and Risk:
Higher Timeframe 1, 2, and 3
Minimum Confluence Votes

Target ATR Mult
Show Risk Ladder
How to Use This Indicator
Step 1: Check confluence
Use the dashboard to see whether the local trend and higher timeframes agree.
Step 2: Read the ribbon
A clean stacked ribbon provides stronger trend context than a mixed ribbon.
Step 3: Watch proximity rails
Proximity warnings indicate price is near a transition threshold.
Step 4: Treat the ladder as a visual plan
The risk ladder maps possible risk and reward levels, but it does not execute trades or ensure outcomes.
Indicator Limitations
Higher-timeframe values can update during an unfinished higher-timeframe candle
Trend tools can lag during sharp reversals
Risk ladder levels are visual only
Sideways markets may generate mixed confluence readings
Originality Statement
Obsidian Trend Relay combines zero-lag trend anchoring, SuperTrend, EMA ribbon stacking, three higher-timeframe votes, prediction thresholds, proximity warnings, and managed risk ladders into one open-source Pine v6 trend relay. Its purpose is to organize trend alignment and risk visualization in one coherent chart layer.

HTF/LTF Alignment ("Trend Is your Friend, Until the end!")HTF/LTF Alignment Dashboard
A clean multi-timeframe bias dashboard built around the 9 and 13 EMA. Tracks 9/13 EMA direction across three user-defined timeframes simultaneously and shows whether they're aligned at a glance — without making you flip charts.
What it does
Reads the 9 EMA (blue) and 13 EMA (grey) on three independently selectable timeframes (defaults: 1H / 15m / 5m) and prints the result as a compact dashboard on your chart. Each timeframe is color-coded — green when 9 EMA is above 13 EMA (bullish), red when below (bearish). A single alignment indicator at the top of the table reads "HTF/LTF Aligned" with a light blue dot when all three timeframes agree, grey when they don't.
The dashboard works on any chart timeframe. The three TFs in the table are pulled independently of what you're viewing, so you can sit on a 1m execution chart and still read 1H bias.
How to use it
1. Trend continuation — the cleanest setup
When all three TFs are aligned (blue dot lit), you're in a confirmed trending regime where higher and lower timeframes agree. This is the highest-probability environment to take continuation trades — pullbacks to value, breakouts, retests of broken structure. Trend is your friend, until the end. Trade with the alignment, not against it.
2. Possible reversal — read the flip cascade
The order in which timeframes change is the early-warning system. Reversals almost always start small and work outward:
LTF flips first → first crack, often just noise on its own
MTF flips → trend in your execution window has rolled
HTF flips → regime change confirmed
If you're holding a position in a fully-aligned market and the LTF flips against you, that's your cue to tighten stops, scale out, or stop adding. If two TFs have flipped and only the HTF holds, you're in the danger zone — the trend is dying. A full new-direction alignment (all three flip and re-agree) is the cleanest signal that the reversal is real, not a wick.
3. Top-down bias filter
Set TF1 to your bias timeframe, TF2 to your structure timeframe, TF3 to your execution timeframe. Only take longs when all three show BULL. Only take shorts when all three show BEAR. When the alignment dot is grey, the market is in transition — stand down or wait for it to settle.
4. Confluence trigger
Watch for the dot flipping from grey to light blue. That moment marks all three TFs agreeing for the first time and frequently coincides with momentum kicks and continuation legs. Pair it with your own entry trigger — structure break, pullback to a key level, breakout retest, or whatever you already use.
5. Don't fight the tide check
If your HTF row is BEAR and you're tempted to long an LTF setup, the dashboard sitting grey is the visual reminder you're trading against the higher tide. Reduce size, skip the trade, or wait for alignment to come to you.
Settings
Three timeframes, fully editable (HTF / MTF / LTF)
Table position: any of four corners or middle sides
Table size: Tiny / Small / Normal / Large
Every color editable — cell backgrounds, text colors, frame, borders, alignment indicator
Optional plot of the 9/13 EMA on the current chart (off by default; 9 = blue, 13 = grey)
"Use confirmed values only" toggle for non-repainting bias (locks each TF until that bar closes)
Three alerts: bullish alignment fired, bearish alignment fired, alignment lost
Notes
Default mode shows live developing bias — values can update intra-bar until each TF's bar closes. Flip on "Use confirmed values only" if you prefer locked, non-repainting values. For best data fidelity, keep your chart timeframe equal to or lower than the lowest TF in your dashboard. Works on any market — futures, FX, equities, crypto.
This is a bias and confluence tool. It won't tell you exactly where to enter or exit on its own — it shows you when the trend stack agrees, when it doesn't, and when it's starting to come apart Indicator
MTF Matrix Strategy
**MTF Matrix & Hybrid Strategy V2: Smart Trend & Ambush System**
> **⚠️ DISCLAIMER:** *This script and the following explanations are strictly for educational and algorithmic coding purposes. It is NOT financial or investment advice. Always backtest strategies thoroughly and apply your own risk management before using them in live markets.*
This strategy is designed to eliminate overtrading and only enter the market during the highest-probability moments. It strips away the noise of complex charts: it identifies a strong trend, waits for a discount, and protects your capital with a mathematical armor.
**How Does It Work? (3 Simple Steps)**
1. **Confirms the Direction (Trend Filter):** The system first checks the 5, 8, and 13 Simple Moving Averages (SMA). If they are aligned perfectly (5 > 8 > 13), it confirms a strong uptrend and activates its "Long-only" mode.
2. **Sets the Ambush (The Pullback):** A smart trader never buys the top (No FOMO). This strategy waits for the price to cool down and pull back to the **SMA 8** baseline. This specific zone is defined as the "Ambush Area".
3. **Pulls the Trigger (Candle Confirmation):** Once the price drops into the ambush zone, the system doesn't buy blindly. It waits for visual proof of a reversal using Price Action. It executes the trade only if it detects a valid reversal pattern like a Pin Bar, Engulfing, Doji, or Morning Star.
**How Does It Manage Risk? (Hybrid Exit Mechanism)**
Entering a trade is only half the battle; keeping the money is the real challenge. The system uses a two-layered defense:
* **Step-by-Step Profit Locking (D-Levels):** The algorithm calculates invisible Fibonacci targets (D1, D2, D3...) based on the Higher Timeframe (HTF). As the price climbs and breaches these levels, the system automatically trails your stop-loss up to the previous level, locking in your profits step-by-step.
* **Dynamic Trailing Stop (The Safety Net):** Just in case of sudden market crashes, it maintains a dynamic trailing stop based on a percentage (e.g., 2%) below the highest seen price. As the peak rises, the stop rises. If the price drops by that percentage, it closes the trade to secure gains or minimize losses.
**Customizable Features (Inputs)**
* **Ambush Sensitivity (ATR %):** Adjust how close the price needs to get to the moving average before triggering an entry. Widen or narrow the zone based on market volatility.
* **Price Action Filters:** Toggle specific candlestick patterns on or off based on your personal preference.
* **Live Dashboard:** A sleek panel on the top right gives you real-time visibility of your current stop price, HTF targets, and trade status at a single glance.

### 🇹🇷 TÜRKÇE AÇIKLAMA
**MTF Matrix & Hybrid Strategy V2: Akıllı Trend ve Pusu Sistemi**
> **⚠️ YASAL UYARI:** *Bu strateji kodu ve aşağıdaki açıklamalar tamamen algoritmik düşünce yapısını incelemek ve kodlama eğitimi amacıyla hazırlanmıştır. Kesinlikle finansal veya yatırım tavsiyesi (YTD) değildir. Gerçek piyasalarda işlem yapmadan önce sistemin matematiğini anlayın, test edin ve kendi risk yönetiminizi uygulayın.*
Bu strateji, piyasada sürekli işlem yapma hastalığını ortadan kaldırmak ve sadece "en güvenli" anlarda oyuna dahil olmak için tasarlanmıştır. Karmaşık grafik analizlerini bir kenara bırakır; güçlü bir trend bulur, fiyatın ucuzlamasını bekler ve kârı matematiksel bir zırhla korur.
**Sistem Nasıl Çalışır? (3 Basit Adım)**
1. **Yönü Teyit Eder (Trend Filtresi):** Sistem ilk olarak 5, 8 ve 13 günlük Basit Hareketli Ortalamalara (SMA) bakar. Eğer bu üçü kusursuz bir sıraya dizilmişse (5 > 8 > 13), piyasanın güçlü bir yükseliş trendinde olduğunu anlar ve sadece "Alım" (Long) yönlü fırsat aramaya başlar.
2. **Pusuya Yatar (Geri Çekilme):** Usta bir avcı avının üzerine koşmaz, bekler. Bu strateji de fiyatlar zirvedeyken alım yapmaz (FOMO'yu engeller). Fiyatın, trendin dinlenme bölgesi olan **SMA 8** çizgisine doğru geri çekilmesini bekler. Bu bölge sistemin "Pusu Alanı"dır.
3. **Tetiği Çeker (Mum Onayı):** Fiyat pusu alanına geldiğinde sistem körü körüne alım yapmaz. Dönüşün başladığını kanıtlayan bir Price Action (Fiyat Hareketi) mumu arar. Pin Bar, Yutan Mum (Engulfing), Doji veya Sabah Yıldızı formasyonlarından birini gördüğü an işleme girer.
**Riski Nasıl Yönetir? (Hibrit Çıkış Mekanizması)**
İşleme girmek işin sadece yarısıdır, asıl marifet parayı korumaktır. Sistem bu noktada devreye iki katmanlı bir zırh sokar:
* **Adım Adım Kâr Kilitleme (D-Seviyeleri):** Sistem, üst zaman diliminden (HTF) aldığı verilerle görünmez Fibonacci hedefleri (D1, D2, D3...) çizer. Fiyat yükselip bu hedefleri aştıkça, zarar kes (stop-loss) seviyenizi bir alt kademeye taşır. Böylece kazandığınız kârı piyasaya geri vermezsiniz.
* **Dinamik İzleyen Stop (Emniyet Kemeri):** İşler ters giderse diye, fiyatın gördüğü en yüksek zirveden belirlediğiniz bir yüzde (örn: %2) gerisine dinamik bir stop koyar. Zirve yükseldikçe stop da yükselir; fiyat aniden %2 düşerse işlemi kârla veya minimum zararla kapatır.
**Kullanıcı Dostu Özellikler (Ayarlar)**
* **Pusu Hassasiyeti (Ambush Sensitivity):** Fiyatın ortalamaya ne kadar yaklaşması gerektiğini ayarlarsınız. Piyasaya göre alanı daraltıp genişletebilirsiniz.
* **Fiyat Hareketi (PA) Filtreleri:** İstemediğiniz mum formasyonlarını ayarlardan kapatıp sadece güvendiklerinizle işlem yapabilirsiniz.
* **Bilgi Panosu (Dashboard):** Sağ üst köşedeki şık panel sayesinde anlık stop seviyenizi, hedeflerinizi ve piyasa durumunu tek bakışta görürsünüz.

MTF-Auto-Triad SMT Engine [TradeSymmetry]MTF-Auto-Triad SMT Engine
This indicator puts institutional order flow front and center, featuring an automated Multi-Timeframe (MTF) liquidity divergence engine as its core, supported by built-in helper tools for higher timeframe market structure and momentum tracking.
Built to eliminate chart clutter while maximizing actionable data, this tool is engineered for traders executing high-probability, asymmetric setups on intraday execution timeframes.
🔥 Core Feature: The SMT Engine
Stop manually typing in comparison tickers every time you switch assets. The Auto-Triad system instantly detects the asset class you are viewing and automatically scans correlated markets for Smart Money Tool (SMT) divergences across multiple timeframes simultaneously.
Supported Triads: * Indices: NQ1!, ES1!, YM1!
Forex: EURUSD, GBPUSD, DXY
Metals: XAGUSD, XAUEUR, XAUGBP, GC1!
Oil: CL1!, RB1!, HO1!
🛠 Built-In Helper Tools
1. Dynamic HTF Boxes with Time stamping
Keep your higher timeframe narrative locked in while executing on the LTF.
Live-Tracking OHLC: Project custom Higher Timeframe boxes (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily) directly onto your execution chart.
Open Time Anchors: The Open level of your HTF box automatically pulls the exact timestamp of when that session began (e.g., 09:30 4H-OPEN), giving you crucial temporal context right at the point of execution.
2. Time-Price Velocity (TPV) Candles
Traditional candlesticks only show price action. The TPV engine colors your candles based on mathematically smoothed, ATR-normalized momentum.
Identify exactly when momentum is accelerating or decelerating inside a move.
Built-in dashboard shows live velocity metrics, trend direction, and acceleration changes.
💡 How to Use This Tool (The TradeSymmetry Setup)
This indicator is built to execute a strict, structural trading workflow. Follow these core steps:
1. Identify Your POI & Wait for the Sweep/Tap
Frame your narrative and identify your draw on liquidity. Wait patiently for price to sweep a key structural extreme (Session, Daily, Weekly, Monthly Highs/Lows, or Equal Highs/Lows). Alternatively, wait for price to tap into a high-probability Fair Value Gap (FVG) or Order Block (OB).
2. Confirm Institutional Footprints (SMT)
Once price reaches your POI, look for an SMT Divergence to print via the Auto-Triad engine. This confirms that correlated assets are failing to make the same high or low—the ultimate footprint of smart money accumulation or distribution.
3. Wait for the Shift & Open Level Validation
Look for a clear Market Structure Shift (MSS) or Change in State of Delivery (CISD).
Crucial Rule: If you are taking a bullish setup, ensure your trigger candle closes cleanly above the Open level. For a bearish setup, the candle must close cleanly below the Open level.
4. Execute the Trade
Once all criteria are met, use the momentum color shift in the TPV candles as your final entry trigger. Target asymmetric risk-to-reward setups (1:3 or 1:5 R:R) based on the next structural draw on liquidity.
⚙️ Customization
Everything is modular. Don't want the TPV colors? Turn them off. Want to use a custom 4-asset comparison instead of the Auto-Triads? Switch to Manual mode. Every line and label size can be custom-colored to fit your exact visual style.

Directional Bias Aggregator [JOAT]Directional Bias Aggregator
Introduction
The Directional Bias Aggregator is a sophisticated multi-timeframe bias scoring system designed to measure and aggregate directional conviction across multiple timeframes. This indicator solves the critical problem of conflicting signals across different timeframes by providing a weighted, systematic approach to bias analysis. Understanding the true directional bias requires looking beyond the current timeframe - professional traders always consider the bigger picture, and this tool brings that institutional approach to your trading.
This indicator is built for traders who understand that trends exist on multiple timeframes simultaneously and that the highest probability trades occur when these timeframes align. Whether you're a day trader needing higher timeframe context, a swing trader confirming trend direction, or a position trader assessing long-term bias, this aggregator provides the comprehensive directional intelligence needed to trade with confidence and clarity.
Why This Indicator Exists
Most traders struggle with timeframe analysis - they might see a bullish signal on the 15-minute chart but bearish conditions on the 4-hour, leading to confusion and poor decisions. This indicator addresses that problem by:
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Evaluates bias across up to four timeframes simultaneously
Weighted Aggregation: Assigns importance to each timeframe based on trading style
Bias Scoring: Provides numerical bias scores (-100 to +100) for objective analysis
Alignment Detection: Identifies when multiple timeframes agree on direction
Trend Integration: Adds trend filter to prevent trading against major moves
Conviction Measurement: Quantifies the strength of directional bias
The aggregator transforms the complex, often subjective process of multi-timeframe analysis into an objective, systematic framework that can be consistently applied.
Core Components Explained
1. Single Timeframe Bias Calculation
Each timeframe's bias is calculated using multiple indicators:
// Single timeframe bias calculation
f_calc_bias(float src_close, float src_high, float src_low) =>
// MA trend component
float ma_fast = ta.ema(src_close, i_ma_fast)
float ma_slow = ta.ema(src_close, i_ma_slow)
float ma_diff = ma_slow != 0 ? (ma_fast - ma_slow) / ma_slow * 100 : 0
float ma_score = math.max(math.min(ma_diff * 10, 100), -100)
// Price position component
float price_pos = 0.0
if src_close > ma_fast and ma_fast > ma_slow
price_pos := 100
else if src_close < ma_fast and ma_fast < ma_slow
price_pos := -100
// ... additional price position logic
// RSI component
float rsi_val = ta.rsi(src_close, i_rsi_len)
float rsi_score = (rsi_val - 50) * 2
// MACD component
float macd_line = ta.ema(src_close, i_macd_fast) - ta.ema(src_close, i_macd_slow)
float macd_signal = ta.ema(macd_line, i_macd_sig)
float macd_hist = macd_line - macd_signal
float atr_val = ta.atr(14)
float macd_score = atr_val > 0 ? (macd_hist > 0 ?
math.min(macd_hist / atr_val * 50, 100) :
math.max(macd_hist / atr_val * 50, -100)) : 0
// Composite score
float composite = ma_score * 0.35 + price_pos * 0.30 + rsi_score * 0.15 + macd_score * 0.20
composite
Bias components:
MA Trend (35% weight): Fast/slow EMA relationship and slope
Price Position (30% weight): Price relative to moving averages
RSI Momentum (15% weight): RSI centered at 50 for directional bias
MACD Histogram (20% weight): Trend acceleration/deceleration
Score Range: -100 (strong bearish) to +100 (strong bullish)
Neutral Zone: Scores between -30 and +30 considered neutral
Each component contributes unique directional information for comprehensive analysis.
2. Multi-Timeframe Data Requests
The indicator requests bias calculations from multiple timeframes:
// Request bias from each timeframe
f_request_bias(string tf) =>
request.security(syminfo.tickerid, tf, f_calc_bias(close, high, low) ,
lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on)
float bias_tf1 = f_request_bias(i_tf1) // Fastest timeframe
float bias_tf2 = f_request_bias(i_tf2) // Medium timeframe
float bias_tf3 = f_request_bias(i_tf3) // Slow timeframe
float bias_tf4 = f_request_bias(i_tf4) // Slowest timeframe
MTF features:
Configurable Timeframes: User-defined timeframe selection
Confirmed Bars: Uses previous bar to prevent repainting
Lookahead Management: Proper security request handling
Current TF Bias: Also calculates bias on current timeframe
Data Validation: Handles missing or invalid data gracefully
The MTF system ensures you always have the bigger picture context.
3. Weighted Aggregation System
Timeframes are weighted based on their importance:
// Normalize weights
float total_weight = i_w1 + i_w2 + i_w3 + i_w4
float w1_norm = total_weight > 0 ? i_w1 / total_weight : 0.25
float w2_norm = total_weight > 0 ? i_w2 / total_weight : 0.25
float w3_norm = total_weight > 0 ? i_w3 / total_weight : 0.25
float w4_norm = total_weight > 0 ? i_w4 / total_weight : 0.25
// Aggregate bias score
float aggregate_bias = nz(bias_tf1) * w1_norm + nz(bias_tf2) * w2_norm +
nz(bias_tf3) * w3_norm + nz(bias_tf4) * w4_norm
// Smoothed aggregate
float smooth_bias = ta.ema(aggregate_bias, 3)
Weighting features:
Customizable Weights: Assign importance to each timeframe
Automatic Normalization: Ensures weights sum to 100%
Default Weights: Higher weight to slower timeframes (15%, 25%, 30%, 30%)
Smoothing: EMA smoothing for cleaner signals
Flexibility: Adjust weights based on trading style
The aggregation system creates a single, unified bias score from all timeframes.
4. Bias Alignment Analysis
The indicator measures how many timeframes agree on direction:
// Count aligned timeframes
int bullish_count = 0
int bearish_count = 0
if nz(bias_tf1) > i_weak_thresh
bullish_count += 1
else if nz(bias_tf1) < -i_weak_thresh
bearish_count += 1
// Repeat for TF2, TF3, TF4...
// Alignment score (0-4)
int alignment_score = math.max(bullish_count, bearish_count)
// Alignment direction
int alignment_direction = bullish_count > bearish_count ? 1 :
bearish_count > bullish_count ? -1 : 0
// Perfect alignment check
bool perfect_bullish = bullish_count == 4
bool perfect_bearish = bearish_count == 4
Alignment features:
Alignment Score: Number of timeframes agreeing (0-4)
Alignment Direction: Overall consensus direction
Perfect Alignment: All timeframes agree (strongest signal)
Weak Threshold: Minimum bias for alignment (default 30)
Mixed Signals: When timeframes disagree (lower confidence)
Higher alignment scores indicate higher probability setups.
5. Trend Filter Integration
An optional trend filter prevents trading against major moves:
// Trend filter
float trend_ma = ta.ema(close, i_trend_ma)
bool above_trend = close > trend_ma
bool below_trend = close < trend_ma
float trend_distance = trend_ma != 0 ? (close - trend_ma) / trend_ma * 100 : 0
// Trend-adjusted bias
float trend_adjusted_bias = smooth_bias
if i_use_trend
if above_trend and smooth_bias > 0
trend_adjusted_bias := smooth_bias * (1 + i_trend_weight)
else if below_trend and smooth_bias < 0
trend_adjusted_bias := smooth_bias * (1 + i_trend_weight)
else if above_trend and smooth_bias < 0
trend_adjusted_bias := smooth_bias * (1 - i_trend_weight * 0.5)
else if below_trend and smooth_bias > 0
trend_adjusted_bias := smooth_bias * (1 - i_trend_weight * 0.5)
Trend filter features:
Trend MA: Long-term moving average (default 200)
Trend Weight: Bonus for trading with trend (default 20%)
Penalty System: Reduces bias when trading against trend
Trend Distance: Measures how far price is from trend
Optional: Can be disabled for counter-trend strategies
The trend filter adds an extra layer of confirmation for directional bias.
6. Conviction and Consistency Metrics
The indicator measures the strength and stability of bias:
// Confluence quality
float confluence_quality = (float(alignment_score) / 4.0) *
(math.abs(smooth_bias) / 100.0) * 100
// Bias conviction score
float conviction_score = 0.0
conviction_score += float(alignment_score) * 15 // Max 60
conviction_score += math.abs(smooth_bias) * 0.3 // Max 30
if i_use_trend
if (above_trend and smooth_bias > 0) or (below_trend and smooth_bias < 0)
conviction_score += 10 // Trend alignment bonus
conviction_score := math.min(conviction_score, 100)
// Bias consistency
var int bias_consistency_counter = 0
if smooth_bias > i_weak_thresh and smooth_bias > i_weak_thresh
bias_consistency_counter := math.min(bias_consistency_counter + 1, 20)
else if smooth_bias < -i_weak_thresh and smooth_bias < -i_weak_thresh
bias_consistency_counter := math.min(bias_consistency_counter + 1, 20)
else
bias_consistency_counter := math.max(bias_consistency_counter - 1, 0)
float bias_consistency = float(bias_consistency_counter) / 20.0 * 100
Quality metrics:
Confluence Quality: Combines alignment and strength (0-100%)
Conviction Score: Overall signal strength (0-100)
Bias Consistency: How stable the bias has been (0-100%)
Momentum: Rate of change in bias
Acceleration: Change in bias momentum
These metrics help assess signal reliability and persistence.

How to Use This Indicator
Step 1: Analyze Individual Timeframes
Check the dashboard to see bias on each timeframe. Look for consistency - if most timeframes show the same direction, confidence is higher.
Step 2: Check Aggregate Bias
The aggregate bias provides a unified directional score. Values above 60 indicate strong bullish bias, below -60 indicate strong bearish bias.
Step 3: Verify Alignment
Higher alignment scores (3-4 timeframes) offer the highest probability setups. Perfect alignment (4/4) often precedes strong moves.
Step 4: Assess Conviction
High conviction scores (>75%) indicate strong, consistent bias. Low conviction (<50%) suggests uncertainty - wait for clarity.
Step 5: Consider Trend Filter
If enabled, ensure bias aligns with the major trend. Trading against the trend reduces conviction and increases risk.
Step 6: Monitor Momentum
Accelerating bias in the direction of alignment suggests the move is gaining strength. Decelerating bias warns of potential reversals.
Best Practices
Perfect alignment (4/4) provides the highest probability setups
Higher timeframe bias should generally override lower timeframe signals
Increasing conviction scores suggest strengthening trends
Divergence between timeframes often precedes reversals
Use the trend filter unless you're specifically trading counter-trend setups
Bias consistency is key - look for stable, persistent bias
Sudden changes in aggregate bias often signal regime shifts
Combine with price action for optimal entry timing
Adjust timeframe weights based on your trading style
Keep a bias journal to track how different instruments behave
Trading Applications
Trend Following:
Enter when bias > 60 on at least 3 timeframes
Add to positions as conviction increases
Stay in trades as long as bias remains aligned
Exit when bias weakens or reverses on slower timeframes
Mean Reversion:
Look for extreme bias (>80 or <-80) on faster timeframes
Enter when faster timeframe bias opposes slower timeframe
Target mean reversion to neutral bias levels
Quick exits - don't fight the longer-term bias
Breakout Trading:
Wait for bias alignment across all timeframes
Enter on breakouts with supporting bias momentum
Use wider stops due to potential volatility
Scale out as bias reaches extreme levels

Originality Statement
This indicator is original in its comprehensive approach to multi-timeframe bias aggregation and scoring. While individual components (moving averages, RSI, MACD) are established tools, this indicator is justified because:
It synthesizes bias analysis across multiple timeframes into a unified scoring system
The weighted aggregation allows customization based on trading style and preferences
Alignment detection provides objective measures of timeframe consensus
The conviction scoring system quantifies signal strength and reliability
Trend filter integration adds an extra layer of confirmation
Consistency analysis identifies stable, persistent bias versus noisy fluctuations
The dashboard presents complex multi-timeframe analysis in an accessible format
Export functions enable integration with any trading system
Each timeframe contributes unique context: faster timeframes show immediate bias, slower timeframes show established trends
The indicator solves the real problem of conflicting signals across timeframes through systematic aggregation
The indicator's value lies in transforming the complex, often confusing world of multi-timeframe analysis into a clear, objective system that traders can use to make informed decisions with confidence.
Disclaimer
This indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only. It is not financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any financial instrument. Multi-timeframe analysis is a tool for understanding market context, not a prediction system.
Bias can change suddenly due to news events, economic data, or changes in market structure. Past bias patterns do not guarantee future behavior. The indicator's signals are mathematical calculations based on historical patterns and should be used in conjunction with other forms of analysis.
Always use proper risk management, including stop losses and position sizing appropriate for your account and risk tolerance. Strong bias alignment does not guarantee success - markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.

Sentiment SquareThe Sentiment Square is a multi-timeframe (MTF) and multi-length volume analysis tool designed for PulseWire. It provides a top-down visualization of market conviction by calculating the ratio of bullish volume to total volume across 16 different data points simultaneously.
1.Core Logic: How it Works
The indicator calculates a Bullish Volume Ratio (BVR) for every square in the grid.
BVR = sum ( Volume of Up Candles)/ sum(Total Volume) X 100
Up Candle: Any candle where Close > Open .
Total Volume: The sum of all volume within the lookback window.
Each percentage represents the "Share of Power" held by buyers. For example, a value of 70% means bulls provided 70% of the volume, while bears provided the remaining 30%.
2. Visual Interface
The indicator uses a Transposed Matrix layout to match standard top-down trading analysis:
X-Axis: Timeframes : Moves from your lowest selected timeframe (Left) to your highest (Right).
Y-Axis: Lookback Windows: Moves from short-term momentum (Top) to long-term structure (Bottom).
Color Definitions
Green (Bullish): The percentage is above your Neutral Max (default 55%). Brighter green indicates extreme conviction (>70%).
Red (Bearish): The percentage is below your Neutral Min (default 45%). Brighter red indicates extreme selling (<30%).
Gray (Neutral): The percentage falls between 45% and 55%. This indicates a "tug-of-war" or sideways consolidation where neither side has a decisive majority.
Input Settings
Timeframes Window: Select four different intervals (e.g., 15m, 1h, 4h, 1D).
Speed Window: Set four different lookback lengths (e.g., 20, 50, 100, 200 bars).
Neutral Zone: Adjust the sensitivity of the Gray boxes. A wider range (e.g., 40%–60%) filter out more noise but responds slower to new trends.
How to Interpret the Data
Vertical Alignment (Columns): If a whole column is Green, that specific timeframe is bullish across all horizons (from fast momentum to slow structure).
Horizontal Alignment (Rows): If a whole row is Green, it means that specific "window length" is showing buying pressure across all timeframes.
The "Waiting Time" Signal: When a box is Gray, the volume is balanced. Traders typically wait for the percentage to move out of the 45%–55% range before confirming an entry.
Trend Resilience: If the 15M (tactical) squares turn Red while the 1D (structural) squares remain Green, the market is likely undergoing a healthy pullback rather than a total reversal.
Technical Limitations
Data Lag: Higher timeframe squares (like 1D or 4H) only update when their respective candles close.
Volume Requirement: This indicator requires volume data. It is most effective on Centralized Exchanges (Stocks, Crypto, Futures). On Forex, it uses "Tick Volume," which serves as a proxy for activity.
Common Trade Setup Examples
By observing the transition of colors and percentages across the matrix, you can identify high-probability market conditions.
1.The Trend Continuation (The "Dip-Buy")
Condition: The right-most columns (4H and 1D) and the bottom rows (100 and 200) are solid Green.
Setup: The top-left squares (15M / 20 Window) flip to Red or Gray.
Trigger: Wait for the 15M / 20 square to flip back to Green (above 55%).
Logic: The macro structure is bullish; the red squares indicate a temporary pullback that has now found buyers.
2. The Volatility Squeeze (The "Wait for Breakout")
Condition: A cluster of Gray squares (45%–55%) appears in the middle of the matrix.
Logic: Volume is perfectly balanced between buyers and sellers. This often precedes a massive "expansion" move.
Strategy: Avoid entering while the cluster is Gray. Wait for the majority of the cluster to flip to either solid Green or solid Red.
3. The Top/Bottom Exhaustion
Condition: All 16 squares are Vibrant Green (above 70%) or Vibrant Red (below 30%).
Logic: The market is "over-extended." While the trend is strong, the probability of a reversal increases because there are few buyers/sellers left to push the price further.
Strategy: Tighten stop-losses or look for "Divergence" where the price makes a new high but the percentages in the 20-window start dropping toward 60%.
Summary of the "Wait Time" Metric
The closer a number is to 50%, the more "waiting time" is required. As the numbers move toward 0% or 100%, the market conviction is increasing, and the "actionable" window is opening.
Additional Information:
1. Core Logic
The Sentiment Square calculates the Bullish Volume Ratio (BVR) across 16 data points. It measures "Share of Power" by dividing the volume of "Up Candles" (where Close > Open) by the total volume within a lookback window.
2. Visual Grid Layout
X-Axis (Timeframes): Displays user-selected intervals from lowest (Left) to highest (Right).
Y-Axis (Lookback Windows): Displays "Speeds" from short-term momentum (Top) to long-term structural sentiment (Bottom).
3. Color Definitions
Green (>55%): Bullish conviction. Bright green (>70%) signals extreme strength.
Red (<45%): Bearish conviction. Bright red (<30%) signals extreme selling.
Gray (45%–55%): Neutral "Waiting Time." Indicates volume balance or consolidation.
4. Common Trade Setups
The Dip-Buy: Occurs when macro columns (Right) are Green but tactical squares (Top-Left) temporarily turn Red/Gray. Entry is triggered when tactical squares flip back to Green.
Volatility Squeeze: Identified by a cluster of Gray squares. Traders wait for a majority of the cluster to flip to a solid color before entering.
Exhaustion: When all 16 squares reach extreme vibrant colors, the market is over-extended, increasing the probability of a reversal.

Fair Value Range Breakout [by Oberlunar]Fair Value Range Breakout by Oberlunar is a community tool built around higher-timeframe structure and HTF imbalance zones. It reconstructs and draws up to three recent candles from a user-selected HTF and optionally displays their High, Low, Open, and Close levels with configurable styles and colours, keeping HTF candles and FVG ranges readable while working on lower timeframes.
On each confirmed HTF candle close, the script scans the last three closed HTF candles to detect bullish and bearish Fair Value Gaps using either wicks or candle bodies as the reference. You can filter gaps by a minimum size in ticks, keep only the most recent zones, and extend zones to the right for ongoing interaction tracking.
Set the HTF timeframe according to your horizon, such as Daily for swing context or H4-H2 for intraday structure, then enable the HTF candle overlay and choose which OHLC levels to show for each candle. In the HTF FVG settings, pick Wicks for zones that reflect extremes or Bodies for tighter zones, and increase the minimum gap in ticks if you want fewer, cleaner zones. If you use signals, choose “Close inside” for stricter interaction requirements or “Wick touch” for earlier detection, and apply a small exit buffer in ticks when noise is high. A practical workflow is using HTF=2H on a 5m or 15m chart, monitoring price interaction with an HTF FVG zone, and treating the plotted signal as confirmation of a zone exit rather than a standalone entry system.
Attribution and derivative work notice is explicit and intentional.
The HTF candle architecture component is a derivative work based on HTF Candle Architecture by BigBeluga, and the HTF FVG engine is a derivative work based on “Fair Value Gap MTF” by Oberlunar.
