TICK Arbitrage Toolkit [LuxAlgo]The TICK Arbitrage Toolkit is a specialized institutional internal analysis tool designed to track market breadth and identify high probability reversal zones through TICK and TICKQ index monitoring. It provides real time visualization of market sentiment and internal extremes to assist traders in index scalping and mean reversion strategies.
🔶 USAGE
The indicator identifies three distinct extension levels to signal when market internals are reaching extreme overbought or oversold conditions. Traders use these extensions to anticipate potential price exhausts or trend reversals in major indices like the S&P 500 or Nasdaq 100.
The toolkit maps the NYSE TICK or NASDAQ TICKQ values directly onto the price chart by colorizing bars and providing visual markers. A gradient system transitions bar colors based on the intensity of the TICK value, allowing for a clear interpretation of internal momentum without needing a separate pane.
🔹 Extension Levels
The script utilizes three configurable extension levels (defaulting to 800, 1000, and 1200) to categorize the strength of the internal move.
Extension 1: Displays a single marker and begins tracking for new session highs or lows.
Extension 2: Displays two vertical markers to indicate increasing internal pressure.
Extension 3: Displays three vertical markers and reaches maximum color opacity, signaling an extreme arbitrage opportunity.
🔹 Session Tracking
The toolkit automatically tracks the session high and low for the selected TICK source. When the market reaches a New High of Day (NHOD) or New Low of Day (NLOD) in the internals, a professional label is printed to highlight the breakout.
🔶 DETAILS
The toolkit includes a Refresh Frequency setting that allows the script to process data at a higher resolution than the chart timeframe. By selecting a sub minute frequency such as 1S or 5S, the indicator can react to internal spikes that occur within a single chart bar.
The Include High/Low Extremes feature ensures that brief intrabar spikes are captured. Rather than only looking at the close of the TICK bar, the script evaluates the high and low to find the maximum magnitude, providing a more accurate representation of true market stress.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Settings
TICK Source: Select between NYSE TICK for S&P 500 analysis or NASDAQ TICKQ for Nasdaq 100 analysis.
Refresh Frequency: Determines how often the internal data is sampled. Lower values provide more granular intrabar detail.
Include High/Low Extremes: When enabled, the script uses the absolute highest or lowest value within the sampling period to capture spikes.
Extension 1, 2, 3: Numeric thresholds for the three levels of arbitrage intensity.
🔹 Style
Positive TICK Color: The color used for positive internal readings (typically associated with overbought/reversal zones).
Negative TICK Color: The color used for negative internal readings (typically associated with oversold/reversal zones).
Marker Style: Choose between Circles, Triangles, or None for the extension level markers.
🔹 Dashboard
Dashboard: Toggles the visibility of the on screen data table.
Position: Moves the dashboard to different corners of the chart.
Size: Adjusts the scale of the dashboard text and cells.

Last Candle OHLC (Ticks or Points)What the Code Does
1. **Draws Lines and Labels**:
- It draws lines on your chart to show the high, low, open, and close prices from the previous period (like the previous day or week).
- It also labels these lines with numbers that tell you how far the current price is from these levels.
2. **Shows Price Movement**:
- You can see how far the price has moved from these levels in terms of small price changes (ticks) or larger units (points).
- This helps you understand price movements and potential levels of support or resistance.
3. **Customizable**:
- You can choose whether to show these lines and labels, and you can select if you want to see the movement in ticks or points.
- The lines can extend into the future on your chart to help you anticipate where prices might be in the coming days.
### How It’s Useful:
1. **Identify Key Levels**:
- It helps you spot important price levels from past periods, which can act as support or resistance.
2. **Understand Price Movement**:
- You get a visual sense of how much the price has moved from key levels, which can help you gauge market volatility.
3. **Plan Trades**:
- By seeing where the price has been and how it has moved, you can better plan your trades, like deciding where to enter or exit based on these levels.
4. **Flexible for Different Markets**:
- It works across various markets, like stocks, futures, and forex, adjusting to the specific characteristics of each instrument.
In short, this tool helps you visualize and understand past price movements and levels on your chart, aiding in your trading decisions. Indicator

Tick based chart [DotH]Version 1.0 - 2nd January 2023
Hi All,
This is my first published indicator, although I have written several hundreds for private use.
Description
Tick based chart
I got intrigued while reading about tick based charts on this page (please note this link/website owner is not affiliated with me) , so I decided to see if it would be possible to recreate this type of chart in PulseWire, and here's the results.
This is an implementation for displaying a tick based chart in Trading View. There are benefits to using ticks based candles, as each candle represents the same number of "price moves" rather than an unknown number of moves.
Tick based charts are charts with candles that are rendered in the same way as traditional candles. However, instead of rendering a new candle at a specific time period,tick based candles are rendered after a set number of ticks have occured. For example, in a 50 tick chart, each candle that you see represents exactly 50 ticks, i.e. 50 price changes/moves. Having a view of what happens on the tick level, may help some traders evaluate what is happening within very large candles, or even detect a change in trend, volatility or some other metric which otherwise may not be visible using a standard chart.
Please note that this indicator DOES NOT match/synchronize timewise with the main chart in PulseWire. You must view it independently. If you need to see what times are represented in the tick chart, you can look at the custom time labels and X-Axis grid lines in it to get an idea what parts of the tick based chart correspond to the main chart.
Limitations/known issues:
Currently the indicator has been restricted to 100 candles. This is for limiting the line and box usage to a max of 300 objects.
On timeframes above 1 minute, the seconds values will always be 0. In order to be able to see seconds values in the chart scale you need to be on a second level chart, which requires a premium PulseWire subscription.
Changing the parameters in the settings will cause the chart to empty and start redrawing from its first candle again. This is because the tick chart is being drawn from realtime data, unlike the standard PulseWire charts.
TODOs & Bugs:
Add some moving average indicators (SMA, EMA as a minimum)
Add a corresponding tick based volume chart
Create RSI, MACD, BB variations of this indicator
If you have any ideas/suggestions or bug reports, please feel free to let me know, however keep in mind that I do not have too much spare time to add things, so updates are going to be sporadic.
ABOUT CODE REUSE:
The code is free to use/change. However, if you plan to use this code to make a derivative indicator or strategy, it would be nice to know, so let me know if you feel like it!
