Algo Trading Signals - Buy/Sell System# 📊 Algo Trading Signals - Dynamic Buy/Sell System
## 🎯 Overview
**Algo Trading Signals** is a sophisticated intraday trading indicator designed for algorithmic traders and active day traders. This system generates precise buy and sell signals based on a dynamic box breakout strategy with intelligent position management, add-on entries, and automatic target adjustment.
The indicator creates a reference price box during a specified time window (default: 9:15 AM - 9:45 AM IST) and generates high-probability signals when price breaks out of this range with confirmation.

## 💡 How It Works
### **Phase 1: Box Formation (9:15 AM - 9:45 AM)**
The indicator tracks the high and low prices during your specified time window to create a reference box representing the opening range.
### **Phase 2: Breakout Detection**
After the box is locked, the system monitors for:
- **Bullish Breakout**: Price closes above box high for confirmation bars
- **Bearish Breakout**: Price closes below box low for confirmation bars
### **Phase 3: Signal Generation**
When confirmation requirements are met:
- Entry signal is generated with clear visual label
- Target price is calculated (Entry ± Target Points)
- Position tracking activates
- Cooldown timer starts
### **Phase 4: Position Management**
During active trade:
- **Add-On Logic**: If price pulls back by specified distance but stays within favorable range, additional entry signal fires
- **Target Monitoring**: Continuously checks if price reaches TP level
- **Box Adjustment**: After TP hit, box automatically shifts to new range for next opportunity
### **Phase 5: Trade Exit & Reset**
On target hit:
- Position closes with TP marker
- Statistics update
- Box repositions for next setup
- Cooldown activates
- System ready for next signal

Gap ZonesThis PulseWire indicator automatically detects daily price gaps and plots them clearly on any timeframe (intraday or daily).
It helps visualize where unfilled gaps are sitting, track whether they’ve been filled, and control how far the zone extends.
Key Features
1. Daily Gap Detection
• Works even when you’re on intraday charts (uses daily OHLC data).
• Marks both gap up (potential support zones) and gap down (potential resistance zones).
2. Shaded Gap Zones
• Each gap is highlighted as a band (greenish for up, reddish for down).
• Option to turn shading off if you just want horizontal lines.
3. Hide When Filled
• Once price closes or touches the far side of the gap, it disappears (configurable: Touch vs Close).
4. Lookback Window
• Gaps only show if they occurred within the past X trading days (default: 30).
• Prevents your chart from being cluttered with ancient gaps.
5. Multiple Gaps Tracked
• Can track up to 5 recent gaps simultaneously.
• Oldest gaps “roll off” as new ones form.
6. Finite Right-Edge Guides
• Optional horizontal guide lines extend to the right, but only for a fixed number of bars (default: 50).
• Cleaner than infinite extensions.
7. Gap-Day Marker
• Optional vertical line drawn on the bar where the gap first occurred.
⸻
⚙️ Inputs & Settings
When you apply the indicator, you’ll see these options:
• Lookback (trading days): How far back to scan for gaps (default 30).
• Max gaps to show (1..5): How many simultaneous gap zones to display.
• Min gap size (% of prior close): Filter out tiny gaps (default 0.25%).
• Hide gaps once filled: Removes a gap from the chart once filled.
• Fill rule uses CLOSE (off = Touch):
• Touch = filled when price trades through the level intraday.
• Close = filled only when a candle close crosses it.
• Show shading: Toggle zone fills on/off.
• Show vertical marker on gap day: Toggle gap-day marker line.
• Show finite right-edge lines: Toggle horizontal lines extending right.
• Right line length (bars): How far those lines extend (default 50 bars).
⸻
🟢 How to Use It
1. Apply on Any Chart
• Works best on daily or intraday (5m, 15m, 1h).
• Gaps are always calculated from daily data, so intraday charts will show higher-timeframe gaps correctly.
2. Interpret Colors
• Green shading = Gap Up (often acts as support).
• Red shading = Gap Down (often acts as resistance).
3. Watch for Fills
• When price re-enters the gap zone, the indicator checks if it’s “filled” (based on your Touch/Close setting).
• If “Hide When Filled” is on, the zone vanishes.
4. Trade Context
• Many traders use gaps as targets (expecting a fill) or levels of support/resistance.
• Combined with your bull put/bear call spread strategies, it helps confirm strong levels. Indicator

Iron Condor Pro v6 – Full EngineIronCondor Engine v6.6 is a multi-mode options strategy tool for planning and managing iron condors, straddles, strangles, and butterflies. It supports both setup planning and live trade tracking with modeled delta, risk-based strike selection, IV rank estimation, and visual breach alerts.
Use Setup Mode to preview strike structures based on IV proxy, ATR, delta targeting, and risk tier (High/Mid/Low/Delta). Use Live Mode to track real trades, enter strike/premium data, and monitor live P&L, delta drift, and range status.
This script does not connect to live option chains. Volatility and delta are modeled using price history. All strikes and premiums must be confirmed using your broker before placing trades. Best used with strong support/resistance levels and high IV rank (30%+).
For educational purposes only.
Workflow Guide
Use this flow whether you're setting up on Sunday night or any day before placing a trade.
Step 0: Pre-Script Preparation
Before using the script:
Identify major support and resistance zones on your chart. Define the expected range or consolidation area. Use this context to help evaluate strike placement
1. Setup Phase (Pre-Trade Planning)
Step 1 – Load the Script
Add: IronCondor Engine v6.6 – Full Risk/Decay Edition to your chart
Step 2 – Set Mode = Setup
This enables planning mode, where the engine calculates strike combinations based on:
Your selected risk profile (High, Mid, Low, or Delta)
Historical volatility (20-day log return)
ATR (Average True Range)
Target short delta (adjustable)
Step 3 – Review Setup Table
Enable Show Setup Table to view calculated strikes and width by risk tier.
Adjust any of the following as needed:
Target Short Delta
Strike Interval ($)
Width multipliers (High/Mid/Low)
Risk tier under Auto-Feed Choice
Step 4 – Evaluate the Setup
Is the net credit at least 1.5–2.0x your max risk?
Are the short strikes clearly outside support/resistance zones?
Are the short deltas between 0.15 and 0.30?
Is the range wide enough to handle normal price movement?
Step 5 – Prep for Execution
Enable Auto-Feed Setup → Live to carry Setup strikes into Live mode
Or disable it if you prefer to manually enter strikes later
2. Trade Execution (Live Tracking Mode)
Step 1 – Place the Trade with Your Broker
Use your brokerage (TOS, Tasty, IBKR, etc.) to place the iron condor or other structure
Step 2 – Set Mode = Live
In Live mode:
If Auto-Feed is ON, the Setup strikes auto-populate
If Auto-Feed is OFF, manually enter:
Short and long strikes (Call and Put)
Premiums collected/paid per leg
Total net credit (Entry Credit)
Optional: Input current mid prices for each leg in the "Live Chain" section to track live mark-to-market P&L
Once all required fields are valid, the script activates:
Real-time profit/loss tracking
Max risk estimate
Delta monitoring on short legs
IV Rank estimate
Breach detection system
Chart visuals (if enabled)
3. Trade Management (During the Week)
While the trade is active, use the dashboard and visuals to monitor:
Key Metrics:
Unrealized P/L %
Mark-to-market value vs entry credit
Daily decay (theta)
Days until expiration
Breach status:
In Range
Near Breach
Breached
Alerts:
Price near short strike → suggests roll
Price breaches long strike → breach alert
50% or 75% profit → optional exit signal
Delta exceeds threshold → exposure may need adjustment
Management Tips:
At 50–75% profit: consider closing early
If price nears a short leg: roll, hedge, or manage
If nearing expiry: decide whether to hold or close
If IV collapses: may accelerate time decay or reduce exit value
4. End-of-Week or Expiration Management
If Profit Target Hit
Close early to reduce risk and lock gains
If Still Open Near Expiry
Close the position or
Hold through expiration only if you're fully prepared for pinning/gamma/assignment scenarios
Avoid holding open spreads over the weekend unless part of a defined strategy
Reference Notes
Strike Width
Defined as:
Width = Distance between Short and Long strike
Used for calculating max loss and breach visuals
Delta Guidelines
0.15–0.20 = safer, wider range, lower credit
0.25–0.30 = more aggressive, tighter range, higher credit
Use Target Short Delta input to adjust auto-selected strikes accordingly
Credit Example
Sell Call: $1.04
Sell Put: $0.23
Buy Call + Put wings: $0.14
Net Credit = $1.13 = $113 per contract (max profit)
This is the max profit if price stays between short strikes through expiration
IV Rank (Estimated)
This script does not use options chain IV data.
Instead, it calculates a volatility proxy:
ivRaw = ta.stdev(log returns, 20) * sqrt(252)
IV Rank is then calculated as the percentile of this value within the last 252 bars.
High IV Rank (30%–100%) → better premium-selling conditions
Low IV Rank (<30%) → lower edge for condors
Ideal to sell premium when IV Rank is above 30–50%
Disclosures and Limitations
This script is for educational use only
It does not connect to live option chains
All strikes, deltas, and premiums must be validated through your broker
Always confirm real-time IV, delta, and pricing before placing a trade Indicator
Pro Momentum Table + Trade Alerts📊 Indicator Name: Pro Momentum Table – ADX + DI + ATR + Astro Timing
🧠 Concept:
This indicator is designed for professional scalpers and intraday traders who want to capture only strong momentum waves — not noise. It combines trend strength, volatility, directional movement, momentum oscillation, vega divergence, and astrological timing into a single compact table on your chart.
⚙️ Components Explained:
Metric Description
ADX (Average Directional Index) Measures the strength of the trend. Values above 20 indicate that a meaningful move is starting.
+DI / -DI (Directional Indicators) Show whether buyers (+DI) or sellers (-DI) are dominating. Increasing +DI with ADX rising = bullish momentum. Increasing -DI with ADX rising = bearish momentum.
ATR (Average True Range) Shows volatility and expected range. Used for setting realistic stop-loss and multi-level targets (1×, 1.5×, 2×, 2.5× ATR).
Price Displays the current price level for quick reference.
CMO (Chande Momentum Oscillator) Measures short-term momentum direction and strength. Helps identify overbought/oversold conditions in trend continuation.
Vega Divergence Shows a synthetic reading of volatility pressure — "Bullish" when volatility expansion supports upward moves, "Bearish" for downward pressure, and "Neutral" otherwise.
Astro Remark Suggests ideal time windows based on planetary cycles for scalping entries. “Bullish Window” often aligns with high-probability long trades; “Bearish Window” favors shorts.
Trade Signal The core momentum condition: “Bullish Momentum” if ADX > 20 and +DI rising, “Bearish Momentum” if ADX > 20 and -DI rising, else “No Clear Momentum.”
📈 How to Use:
Wait for ADX > 20 – This confirms that the market is entering a strong momentum phase.
Check DI direction:
✅ +DI rising: Buyers gaining strength → look for long setups.
✅ -DI rising: Sellers gaining strength → look for short setups.
Use ATR to plan exits:
🎯 TP1 = Entry ± 1 × ATR
🎯 TP2 = Entry ± 1.5 × ATR
🎯 TP3 = Entry ± 2 × ATR
🎯 TP4 = Entry ± 2.5 × ATR
CMO & Vega Divergence: Confirm momentum direction and volatility expansion before committing.
Astro Remark: Align your scalping activity with the planetary support window for higher probability trades.
🪙 Pro Tips for Scalpers:
Only trade when ADX > 20 and DI is consistently rising. Ignore signals in choppy or sideways phases.
Avoid trades if Vega is neutral and CMO is flat – these usually indicate fake breakouts.
If targets aren’t hit within expected ATR-based time, treat the move as false and exit early.
Combine with 9 EMA and 20 EMA (hidden) for wave structure confirmation without cluttering the chart.
💡 Summary:
This indicator acts as a real-time trade decision dashboard. It removes clutter from the chart and delivers everything a professional scalper needs — strength, direction, volatility, momentum, timing, and actionable trade bias — all in one elegant table. Indicator

Dynamic Gamma Inspired IndicatorDynamic Gamma Inspired Indicator
This indicator identifies potential market regime shifts between low-volatility (mean-reverting) and high-volatility (trending) environments by using a dynamic, volatility-adaptive framework inspired by options market gamma exposure concepts.
Core Concepts
This indicator uses a volatility-based model that mimics how market maker hedging can influence price stability and volatility. While it's not possible to calculate true Gamma Exposure (GEX) in Pine Script without external options data, this script uses the Average True Range (ATR) as a proxy to create dynamic zones that adapt to current market conditions.
Positive Gamma Environment (Green Background) When price is contained within the upper and lower walls, it suggests a period of stability where market makers' hedging may suppress volatility. In this "mean-reversion" regime, prices tend to revert to the central pivot.
Negative Gamma Environment (Orange Background) When price breaks outside the walls, it signals a potential increase in volatility, where hedging can amplify price moves. This "trend-amplification" regime suggests the potential for strong breakout or trend-following moves.
How It Works
The indicator is built on three key components that dynamically adjust to market volatility:
Dynamic Pivot (Blue Line) An Exponential Moving Average (EMA) acts as the central "zero gamma" pivot point.
Dynamic Walls (Red & Green Lines) These upper and lower bands are calculated by adding or subtracting a multiple of the Average True Range (ATR) from the central EMA pivot. This is similar to how Keltner Channels use ATR to create volatility-based envelopes. The walls expand during high volatility and contract during low volatility.
How to Use This Indicator
The indicator automatically plots signals based on the current market regime:
Mean-Reversion Signals (Inside the Walls)
Long Reversion: Appears when the price crosses up through the central pivot, suggesting a potential move toward the upper wall.
Short Reversion: Appears when the price crosses down through the central pivot, suggesting a potential move toward the lower wall.
Breakout Signals (Outside the Walls)
Long Breakout: Appears when the price breaks and closes above the upper wall, signaling the start of a potential uptrend.
Short Breakout: Appears when the price breaks and closes below the lower wall, signaling the start of a potential downtrend.
Customization
You can tailor the indicator to different assets and timeframes by adjusting the following inputs:
Central Pivot EMA Length: Determines the period for the central moving average.
ATR Length for Walls: Sets the lookback period for the Average True Range calculation.
ATR Multiplier for Walls: Adjusts the width of the channel. A larger multiplier creates wider walls, filtering out more noise but providing fewer signals.
Disclaimer: This indicator is a tool for analysis and should not be used as a standalone trading signal. Always use proper risk management and combine it with other analysis methods. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Indicator
Implied Volatility RangeThe Implied Volatility Range is a forward-looking tool that transforms option market data into probability ranges for future prices. Based on the lognormal distribution of asset prices assumed in modern option pricing models, it converts the implied volatility curve into a volatility cone with dynamic labels that show the market’s expectations for the price distribution at a specific point in time. At the selected future date, it displays projected price levels and their percentage change from today’s close across 1, 2, and 3 standard deviation (σ) ranges:
1σ range = ~68.2% probability the price will remain within this range.
2σ range = ~95.4% probability the price will remain within this range.
3σ range = ~99.7% probability the price will remain within this range.
What makes this indicator especially useful is its ability to incorporate implied volatility skew. When only ATM IV (%) is entered, the indicator displays the standard Black–Scholes lognormal distribution. By adding High IV (%) and Low IV (%) values tied to strikes above and below the current price, the indicator interpolates between these inputs to approximate the implied volatility skew. This adjustment produces a market-implied probability distribution that indicates whether the option market is leaning bullish or bearish, based on the data entered in the menu:
ATM IV (%) = Implied volatility at the current spot price (at-the-money).
High IV (%) = Implied volatility at a strike above the current spot price.
High Strike = Strike price corresponding to the High IV input (OTM call).
Low IV (%) = Implied volatility at a strike below the current spot price.
Low Strike = Strike price corresponding to the Low IV input (OTM put).
Expiration (Day, Month, Year) = Option expiration date for the projection.
Once these inputs are entered, the indicator calculates implied probability ranges and, if both High IV and Low IV values are provided, adjusts for skew to approximate the option market’s distribution. If no implied volatility data is supplied, the indicator defaults to a lognormal distribution based on historical volatility, using past realized volatility over the same forward horizon. This keeps the tool functional even without implied volatility inputs, though in that case the output represents only an approximation of ATM IV, not the actual market view.
In summary, the Implied Volatility Range is a powerful tool that translates implied volatility inputs into a clear and practical estimate of the market’s expectations for future prices. It allows traders to visualize the probability of price ranges while also highlighting directional bias, a dimension often difficult to interpret from traditional implied volatility charts. It should be emphasized, however, that this tool reflects only the market’s expectations at a specific point in time, which may change as new information and trading activity reshape implied volatility.

Multi Straddle-Strangle ChartThis powerful indicator is designed for options traders who want to visualize and track the combined premium of multiple straddle and strangle strategies in a single, dedicated pane.
Quickly analyze and compare up to five different options strategies at a glance, directly on your chart. This tool is perfect for monitoring volatility, tracking potential profits/losses on a position, and spotting key support and resistance levels based on option premiums.
Key Features:
Plot Up to 5 Strategies: Simultaneously plot any combination of up to 5 straddles or strangles.
Real-Time Data: Fetches live data for both Call and Put options to give you an up-to-the-second view of the combined price.
Dynamic Symbol Generation: Automatically detects the underlying symbol (e.g., NIFTY, BANKNIFTY, stocks) and builds the correct option symbols based on your input.
Customizable Inputs: Easily configure the expiry date, strike prices and line colors for each of the 5 lines.
In-Chart Summary Table: A clean and clear table in the corner of your chart provides a quick summary of each enabled strategy and its current price.
Important Note on Usage:
This tool requires you to input a strike price in all fields, even if you do not plan to use all five lines. This is necessary because of a fundamental rule in the Pine Script language: every input must have a constant, non-empty default value. The indicator is optimized to only fetch data for the lines you have explicitly enabled with the "Enable Line X" checkbox. Indicator
