Open Vertical Lines [TradeWithRon]This indicator allows traders to draw vertical lines manually or automatically based on the current or specified higher timeframes. It is a versatile tool designed to help users identify and mark significant changes in the market, such as new candle formations, based on a selected or auto-adjusted timeframe.
Open Source
Features:
Timeframe Customization: Users can either manually specify a desired timeframe (e.g., 1-hour, 1-day, etc.) or enable the "Auto" feature, which automatically adjusts the timeframe based on the current chart's timeframe for better alignment with different trading strategies.
Customizable Line Style: The vertical line can be drawn in three different styles: Solid, Dashed, or Dotted, giving users the flexibility to choose their preferred appearance for better chart readability.
Line Color: Users can select the color of the vertical line with transparency options to match their chart's visual preferences.
Auto Timeframe Adjustments: The "Auto Align" option dynamically adjusts the timeframe used for vertical lines depending on the chart's current timeframe. For example, if you’re using a lower timeframe (e.g., 5 minutes), the indicator will automatically switch to a higher timeframe (e.g., 1 hour or daily) to mark vertical lines, ensuring the lines correspond to higher timeframe price action.
Vertical Line Placement:
A vertical line is placed each time a new candle appears on the chart, marking key moments for the user to analyze market movements. This can be helpful for marking the start of new trading sessions or significant events in the market.
How to Use:
1. Apply the indicator to your chart.
2. Configure the preferred timeframe settings (either fixed or auto-align).
3. Customize the line style and color according to your visual preference.
4. The indicator will automatically place vertical lines on the chart when a new candle is formed, based on your selected timeframe.

GQT GPT - Volume-based Support & Resistance Zones V2搞钱兔，搞钱是为了更好的生活。
Title: GQT GPT - Volume-based Support & Resistance Zones V2
Overview:
This strategy is implemented in PineScript v5 and is designed to identify key support and resistance zones based on volume-driven fractal analysis on a 1-hour timeframe. It computes fractal high points (for resistance) and fractal low points (for support) using volume moving averages and specific price action criteria. These zones are visually represented on the chart with customizable lines and zone fills.
Trading Logic:
• Entry: The strategy initiates a long position when the price crosses into the support zone (i.e., when the price drops into a predetermined support area).
• Exit: The long position is closed when the price enters the resistance zone (i.e., when the price rises into a predetermined resistance area).
• Time Frame: Trading signals are generated solely from the 1-hour chart. The strategy is only active within a specified start and end date.
• Note: Only long trades are executed; short selling is not part of the strategy.
Visualization and Parameters:
• Support/Resistance Zones: The zones are drawn based on calculated fractal values, with options to extend the lines to the right for easier tracking.
• Customization: Users can configure the appearance, such as line style (solid, dotted, dashed), line width, colors, and label positions.
• Volume Filtering: A volume moving average threshold is used to confirm the fractal signals, enhancing the reliability of the support and resistance levels.
• Alerts: The strategy includes alert conditions for when the price enters the support or resistance zones, allowing for timely notifications.

Body Percentage of Range (Colored)Short Description:
This indicator measures the dominance of the candle's body relative to its total range (High - Low), providing a visual gauge of intra-candle strength versus indecision. Columns are colored based on whether the body constitutes more or less than a defined percentage (default 50%) of the candle's total height.
Detailed Description:
What it Does:
The "Body Percentage of Range" indicator calculates, for each candle, what percentage of the total price range (High minus Low) is occupied by the candle's body (absolute difference between Open and Close).
A value of 100% means the candle has no wicks (a Marubozu), indicating strong conviction during that period.
A value of 0% means the candle has no body (a Doji), indicating perfect indecision.
Values in between show the relative balance between the directional move (body) and the price exploration/rejection (wicks).
How to Interpret:
The indicator plots this percentage as columns:
Column Height: Represents the percentage of the body relative to the total range. Higher columns indicate a larger body dominance.
Column Color:
Green Columns: Appear when the body percentage is above the user-defined threshold (default 50%). This suggests that the directional move within the candle was stronger than the indecision (wicks). Often seen during trending moves or strong momentum candles.
Red Columns: Appear when the body percentage is at or below the user-defined threshold (default 50%). This suggests that wicks dominate the candle (body is 50% or less of the range), indicating significant indecision, struggle between buyers and sellers, or potential reversals. These are common in choppy, consolidating, or reversal market conditions.
Orange Line (Optional MA): A Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the body percentages is plotted to help smooth the readings and identify broader periods where candle structure indicates more trending (high MA) vs. ranging/indecisive (low MA) characteristics.
Potential Use Cases:
Identifying Choppy vs. Trending Markets: Sustained periods of low, predominantly red columns (and often a low/declining MA) can signal a choppy, range-bound market where trend-following strategies might underperform. Conversely, periods with frequent high, green columns suggest a more trending environment.
Confirming Breakouts/Momentum: High green columns appearing alongside increased volume during a breakout can add conviction to the move's strength.
Spotting Potential Exhaustion/Reversals: A very tall green column after a strong trend, followed immediately by a low red column (like a Doji or Spinning Top pattern appearing on the price chart), might signal potential exhaustion or a pending reversal, indicating indecision has suddenly entered the market.
Filtering Entries: Traders might avoid taking entries (especially trend-following ones) when the indicator shows a consistent pattern of low red columns, suggesting high market indecision.
Settings:
Color Threshold %: Allows you to set the percentage level above which columns turn green (default is 50%).
Smoothing MA Length: Adjusts the lookback period for the Simple Moving Average.
Disclaimer:
This indicator is a tool for technical analysis and should be used in conjunction with other methods (like price action, volume analysis, other indicators) and robust risk management. It does not provide direct buy/sell signals and past performance is not indicative of future results.

Imbalance(FVG) DetectorImbalance (FVG) Detector
Overview
The Imbalance (FVG) Detector is a technical analysis tool designed to highlight price inefficiencies by identifying Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). These gaps occur when rapid price movement leaves an area with little to no traded volume, which may later act as a zone of interest. The indicator automatically detects and marks these imbalances on the chart, allowing users to observe historical price behavior more effectively.
Key Features
- Automatic Imbalance Detection: Identifies bullish and bearish imbalances based on a structured three-bar price action model.
- Customizable Sensitivity: Users can adjust the minimum imbalance percentage threshold to tailor detection settings to different assets and market conditions.
- Real-time Visualization: Marked imbalances are displayed as colored boxes directly on the chart.
- Dynamic Box Updates: Imbalance zones extend forward in time until price interacts with them.
- Alert System: Users can set alerts for when new imbalances appear or when price tests an existing imbalance.
How It Works
The indicator identifies market imbalances using a three-bar price structure:
- Bullish Imbalance: Occurs when the high of three bars ago is lower than the low of the previous bar, forming a price gap.
- Bearish Imbalance: Occurs when the low of three bars ago is higher than the high of the previous bar, creating a downward gap.
When an imbalance is detected:
- Green Boxes indicate bullish imbalances.
- Red Boxes indicate bearish imbalances.
- Once price interacts with an imbalance, the box fades to gray, marking it as tested.
! Designed for Crypto Markets
This indicator is particularly useful in crypto markets, where frequent volatility can create price inefficiencies. It provides a structured way to visualize gaps in price movement, helping users analyze historical liquidity areas.
Customization Options
- Min Imbalance Percentage Size: Adjusts the sensitivity of the imbalance detection.
- Alerts: Users can enable alerts to stay notified of new or tested imbalances.
Important Notes
- This indicator is a technical analysis tool and does not provide trading signals or financial advice.
- It does not predict future price movement but highlights historical price inefficiencies.
- Always use this tool alongside other market analysis methods and risk management strategies.

SCE GANN PredictionsThis is a script designed to give an insight on price direction from being above or below a GANN Value.
What Are GANN Waves?
The SCE GANN Predictions indicator is inspired by the work of W.D. Gann, a renowned trader who believed that price movements follow geometric and mathematical patterns. GANN waves use past price behavior—specifically momentum or "velocity"—to forecast where prices might head next.
How Does the Indicator Work?
Calculating Velocity
The script starts by measuring the "velocity" of price movement over a user-defined lookback period (denoted as n). This velocity is the average difference between the close and open prices over n bars. Think of it as the market’s speed in a given direction.
Predicting the Future Price
Using this velocity, the indicator estimates a future price after a specific time horizon—calculated as n + n*2 bars into the future (e.g., if n = 15, it predicts 45 bars ahead). It scales the velocity by a ratio (Gr) to determine the "end price." This is the raw GANN prediction.
Optimizing the Ratio (Gr)
The key to a good prediction is finding the right Gr. The script tests a range of Gr values (from Gr_min to Gr_max, stepping by Gr_step) and evaluates each one by calculating the sum of squared errors (SSE) between the predicted prices and the actual historical close prices. The Gr with the lowest SSE is deemed "optimal" and used for the final prediction.
Smoothing with an SMA
The raw GANN prediction is then smoothed using a simple moving average (SMA) over the lookback period (n). This SMA is plotted on your chart, serving as a dynamic trend line. The plot’s color changes based on the current price: teal if the close is above the SMA (bullish), and red if below (bearish).
Visuals
This example shows how the value explains price strength and changes color. When the price is above the line, and it’s green, we’re showing an up trend. The opposite is when the price is below the line, and it’s red, showing a down trend.
We can see that there may be moments where price drops under the value for just that one bar.
In scenarios with sideways price action, even though the price crosses, there is no follow through. This is a shortcoming of the overall concept.
Customizable Inputs
Timeframe: Choose the timeframe for analysis (default is 2 minutes).
Show GANN Wave: Toggle the GANN SMA plot on or off (default is true).
Lookback Period (Gn): Set the number of bars for velocity and SMA calculations (default is 15).
Min Ratio (Gr_min): The lower bound for the Gr optimization (default is 0.05).
Max Ratio (Gr_max): The upper bound for Gr (default is 0.2).
Step for Gr (Gr_step): The increment for testing Gr values (default is 0.01).
How to Use SCE GANN Predictions
Trend Direction
The colored SMA provides a quick visual cue. Teal suggests an uptrend, while red hints at a downtrend. Use this to align your trades with the broader momentum.
Crossover Signals
Watch for the close price crossing the GANN SMA. A move above could signal a buy opportunity, while a drop below might indicate a sell. Combine this with other indicators for confirmation.
Fine-Tuning
Experiment with the lookback period (Gn) and Gr range to optimize for your market. Shorter lookbacks might suit fast-moving assets, while longer ones could work for slower trends.
Like any technical tool, SCE GANN Predictions isn’t a crystal ball. It’s based on historical data and mathematical assumptions, so it won’t always be spot-on.

Supply & Demand Zones
_____________________________________________________________________
Supply and Demand Zones
This indicator displays valid Supply and Demand zones on any chart and timeframe, using dynamically updating visuals. Users can see the moment that zones become validated, used, and then invalidated during live sessions. It is sleek, lightweight, and offers a feature-rich settings panel that allows customization of how each element appears and functions. Zones can enhance the probability of successful trades by locating areas that are most likely to contain resting orders of Supply or Demand, which are needed for price reversals.
Disclaimer
____________________
Like all indicators, this can be a valuable tool when incorporated into a comprehensive, risk-based trading system.
Supply and Demand is not the same thing as Support and Resistance.
Trading based on price hitting a zone without understanding which zones are of higher quality and which are of lower quality (only discernible with a trained human eye) will yield poor results.
Supply and Demand works well as a system and even better when added to an existing one. However, like all effective trading techniques, it requires diligent study, practice, and repetition to become proficient. This is an indicator for use with Supply and Demand concepts, not a replacement for learning them.
Features
____________________
Once a valid candle sequence is confirmed, a box will appear that displays the zone over the precise zone range. At 50% zone penetration, a zone becomes used , and at 100% it becomes invalidated . Each of these zone classifications changes the behavior of the zone on the chart immediately. The settings panel offers custom colors for Supply , Demand , Used , and Invalidated zone types.
Borders : The subtle border colors can be changed or hidden.
Boxes or Bases : Advanced users can opt to hide zone boxes and instead display small, subtle tags over base candle groups. This allows for more customizable selection over what is displayed and how.
Max Zones and Hide Invalidated :
There are limitations on how many objects TradingView allows at once. Because of this, once zones go from used to invalidated , they are hidden (deleted) by default. This allows the zones index to be allocated to display more valid , usable zones instead. If a user prefers to keep invalidated zones visible, they can be enabled; however, this will result in showing more recent zones for fewer historical zones.
All zones share one pool, so if you allow fifty max zones, forty-five might be supply while five might be demand on a big sell-off trend. You will always see the most recent zones, regardless of type or status.
It’s up to you how much clutter you want on your screen and how much improved load time you want - but once loaded, zone creation and function are always instantaneous.
Load Time
____________________
Load time refers to the time it takes from when you switch tickers or timeframes before the zones are displayed initially. There is zero lag in the dynamic function and minimal load time, regardless of settings. However, if you are a fine-tuner or multi-screener, the number of Max Zones displayed is the only major variable affecting load time.
I run everything at Max when I develop. When I trade, I run mine at 25 max zones because I change timeframes often and want a very quick display of zones when I do. I have invalidated hidden, and simply enable it if I want to check an old zone. This gives me more zones than I need and reduces the load time to right where I like it.
Thresholds
____________________
It is recommended to leave these as the default.
Base Body Threshold : Determines the maximum ratio of a candle’s body to wick before invalidation. Default (50% or 0.5). A higher number loosens thresholds, resulting in more zones being displayed.
Unrequire 2nd FT if LO is Strong & Strength Multiplier :
The standard logic sequence requires two Follow-Through candles. Under some strong price movement, Leg-Out candles can make an explosive directional move from a base, making a convincing argument for supply and demand perfectly at work, if not for a single Follow-Through candle instead of two.
By enabling this feature, you can tell the script to ignore second Follow-Through candles, if and only if, the Leg-Out candle's range is (Strength) X the base range. exceeds the range of the Base by a factor of X (Strength). ie: At 5x, this would require a Leg-Out range to be 500% the range of the Base.
If enabled and the Leg-Out is not strong enough, the default logic kicks in, and a second follow-through candle will validate the zone as per usual. This loosens thresholds overall and should result in more zones.
Recommended Usage
____________________
Form a thesis using your primary trend trading system (eg: Elliott Wave, Structure Reversal, TheStrat, et al) to identify locations of a pullback for a long or short entry.
Identify a pullback area using your system, then use this indicator to find a high-quality zone on your chosen timeframe.
Once located, draw your own channel over the indicator's zone box. Start on 1m, check for zones, 2m, 3m, and so on. When you see a zone you like, recreate it; thus, when finished, you can see every timeframe’s highest-quality zones that you created, regardless of what timeframe you switch to. Tip: Be selective
To make the process faster, save a channel design in settings for “Demand” and one for “Supply”, then you can quickly get through this process in less than a minute with practice.
Optional: Use additional methods (eg: Fibonacci retracements, Elliott Wave Theory, Anchored VWAPs) to find congruent confirmation.
Version 1.0
____________________
No known bugs remain from the closed beta.
In Development
____________________
Powerful combination zones occur when standard zone sequences are extended with additional levels of demand or supply by adding more conditionals to the state machine logic. Got this mostly working in a dev version and it adds minimal extra resources. Set aside to polish a clean standard 1.0 for release first, but now displaying these extended zones is my top priority for next version.
MTF support is essentially working in a dev copy, but adds resources. Not sure if it is in the spirit of price action being the primary focus of a chart for serious traders, rather than indicators. If there is demand for it, I'll consider it.
Additional Threshold Settings

ICT Order Blocks v2 (Debug)Josh has a very large PP xD
Understanding Order Blocks (OBs) - The ICT Perspective
This document delves into the concept of Order Blocks (OBs) from the perspective of the ICT methodology. It outlines what OBs are, their significance in trading, and how the "ICT Order Blocks v2 (Refined)" indicator functions to identify and visualize these critical price levels. By understanding OBs, traders can better navigate market movements and make informed decisions based on institutional trading behavior.
What is an Order Block (OB)?
Within ICT methodology, an Order Block represents a specific price candle where significant buying or selling interest from institutions (Smart Money) is believed to have occurred. They are potential areas where price might return and react.
Bullish Order Block: Typically the last down-closing candle before a strong, impulsive upward move (displacement). It suggests institutions may have absorbed selling pressure and initiated long positions here.
Bearish Order Block: Typically the last up-closing candle before a strong, impulsive downward move (displacement). It suggests institutions may have distributed long positions or initiated short positions here.
Why are OBs Significant (ICT View)?
Institutional Footprint: They mark potential zones of large order execution.
Support/Resistance: Unmitigated OBs can act as sensitive price levels where reactions are expected. Bullish OBs may provide support; Bearish OBs may provide resistance.
Origin of Moves: They often mark the origin point of significant price swings.
Liquidity Engineering: Institutions might drive price back to OBs to mitigate earlier positions or to engineer liquidity before continuing a move.
Common Refinements
ICT often emphasizes higher probability OBs that are associated with:
Displacement: The move away from the OB is sharp and decisive.
Fair Value Gaps (FVGs): An FVG forming immediately after the OB strengthens its validity.
OB Mitigation: This refers to price returning to the level of the Order Block after its formation. Price might react at the edge (proximal line) or the 50% level (mean threshold) of the OB. An OB is often considered fully mitigated or invalidated if price trades decisively through its entire range, especially with a candle body closing beyond it.
How the "ICT Order Blocks v2 (Refined)" Indicator Works
This indicator automates the detection and visualization of the most recent unmitigated Order Block of each type (Bullish/Bearish), incorporating optional filters.
Detection:
It looks at the relationship between the candle two bars ago ( ), the previous candle ( ), and potentially the current candle ( ).
Bullish OB: Identifies if candle was a down-close (close < open ) AND candle broke above the high of candle (high > high ).
Bearish OB: Identifies if candle was an up-close (close > open ) AND candle broke below the low of candle (low < low ).
Accuracy Filters (Optional Inputs):
These filters help identify potentially higher-probability OBs:
Require Fair Value Gap (FVG)?: If enabled, the indicator checks if an FVG formed immediately after the OB candle ( ). Specifically, it looks for a gap between candle and candle (low > high for Bullish OB confirmation, high < low for Bearish).
Require Strong Close Breakout?: If enabled, it requires the breakout candle ( ) to close beyond the range of the OB candle ( ). (close > high for Bullish, close < low for Bearish). This suggests stronger confirmation.
Storing the Most Recent OB:
When an OB is detected and passes any enabled filters, its details (high, low, formation bar index) are stored. Crucially, this indicator only tracks the single most recent valid unmitigated OB of each type (one Bullish, one Bearish) using var variables. If a newer valid OB forms, it replaces the previously stored one.
Drawing Boxes:
If a valid Bullish OB is being tracked (and Show Bullish OBs is enabled), it draws a box (box.new) using the high and low of the identified OB candle ( ). The same process applies to Bearish OBs (Show Bearish OBs enabled). The boxes automatically extend to the right (extend.right) and their right edge is updated on each new bar (box.set_right) until they are mitigated. Labels ("Bull OB" / "Bear OB") are displayed inside the boxes.
Mitigation & Box Deletion:
The indicator checks if the current closing price (close ) has moved entirely beyond the range of the tracked OB.
Mitigation Rule Used: A Bullish OB is considered mitigated if close < bull_ob_low. A Bearish OB is considered mitigated if close > bear_ob_high. Once an OB is marked as mitigated, the indicator stops tracking it and its corresponding box is automatically deleted (box.delete) from the chart.
This indicator provides a dynamic visualization of the most recent, potentially significant Order Blocks that meet the specified criteria, helping traders identify key areas of interest based on ICT principles.

malama's volume spikeThe "malama's volume spike" indicator identifies and highlights bars where the trading volume significantly exceeds the average, signaling potential market interest or activity. It calculates a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the volume over a user-defined period and compares the current volume against this average multiplied by a specified threshold factor. Bars where the volume surpasses this threshold are colored yellow on the chart, providing a visual cue for traders to identify potential trading opportunities.
How It Works:
Volume Moving Average (SMA): The indicator computes the SMA of the volume over a period defined by the user (default is 20 bars).
Threshold Calculation: It multiplies the SMA by a user-defined factor (default is 2.0) to set the volume spike threshold.
Volume Spike Detection: If the current volume exceeds this threshold, the corresponding bar is highlighted in yellow.
Usage:
Volume MA Length: Adjust this parameter to set the period over which the volume SMA is calculated. A shorter length responds more quickly to recent volume changes, while a longer length smooths out short-term fluctuations.
Volume Threshold Factor: Modify this factor to set the sensitivity of the volume spike detection. A lower value will highlight more bars, while a higher value will highlight fewer, more significant spikes.
