sc_Imbalance indicatorThe script helps to identify imbalance trade candles on the chart.
Prices after a rip-up candle (color in gray, default) will often see subsequent prices backfilling the rip-up candle ie. prices after the rip-up imbalance will fall back down. The opposite is true for flush-down candles (color in purple, default). This indicator allows a quick seeing of which imbalance candle that not been backfilled yet and present opportunities in trading the stock with potential target price based on the imbalance candle.

Inside Candle by HarshiniThe concept behind this indicator is that the inside candle indicates a pause in the current move and the following candle after inside candle will indicate the direction of the next move. This indicator informs you when an inside candle is formed and based on the next candle, it gives you buy/sell signal.
When an inside candle is formed, a label will appear above the candle, which makes it very easy to identify the inside candle in live charts. Once the inside candle is formed, the Buy/Sell signal depends on the next candle. If the candle formed after the inside candle gives a breakout above then "Buy" signal is indicated, you can take a trade with 1:2 risk reward. Similarly if the next candle gives a breakout below, then a "Sell" signal is generated and you can take a sell with 1:2 risk reward. This indicator can be applied to any chart like stocks, crypto, commodities etc...
Here's how you can trade using this indicator:
1) Apply this indicator in a 15 mins time frame :
Even though this indicator identifies inside candle formation in almost every time frame, it works very well when applied to a 15 mins chart.
2) Always keep minimum 1:2 Risk Reward :
While taking trades initially, stick on to 1:2 risk reward. If there are other confluences as well along with the inside candle, you can book target accordingly.
Note : It is observed that this indicator works well in a trending market and not in ranging bound market.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) UnderlayBy analyzing the size and characteristics of candlestick patterns, the Fair Value Gap indicator helps traders spot potential opportunities where the price of a currency or financial asset deviates from its fair value. The FVG is represented as a percentage and displayed as columns in an underlay on the chart.
Calculation and Interpretation:
The calculation of the FVG involves evaluating the body-to-wick ratio of a candlestick. This ratio compares the size of the body (the difference between the open and close prices) to the length of the wicks (the high and low prices). A high body-to-wick ratio indicates a significant price move within the candlestick, potentially signaling a strong market sentiment. The FVG indicator compares the size of the current candlestick with the previous candlesticks over a specified lookback period, typically the last 20 to 40 candlesticks. If the current candlestick meets the criteria for a fair value gap, it is classified as either a Bearish FVG or Bullish FVG, depending on the direction of the price movement.
Interpreting the FVG is relatively straightforward. When a Bearish FVG is detected, it suggests that the price is currently lower than its fair value, indicating a potential upward price movement in the future. This could be an opportunity to consider long positions or buying opportunities. On the other hand, when a Bullish FVG is identified, it implies that the price is higher than its fair value, signaling a possible downward price correction. Traders may consider short-selling or taking profits on long positions in such scenarios.
Coloration:
The coloration of the Fair Value Gap (FVG) indicator plays a crucial role in enhancing its visual representation and aiding interpretation. When a Bearish FVG is identified, the indicator utilizes the color scheme of lime green. This color signifies the potential for an upward price movement as the current price is considered lower than its fair value. On the other hand, a Bullish FVG is represented by the vibrant color of fuchsia, indicating a potential downward price correction as the price exceeds its fair value. The coloration serves as a visual cue, making it easier for traders to quickly identify and differentiate between different types of fair value gaps on the chart. Additionally, the barcolor is aligned with the respective FVG color, providing a comprehensive view of price inefficiencies and aiding traders in their decision-making process.
Potential Applications/Strategies:
The FVG indicator can be applied in various trading strategies and situations. One possible application is in price reversion strategies. Traders can use the FVG to identify overbought or oversold conditions in the market. When a Bullish FVG occurs, it may indicate an opportunity to consider short-selling or taking profits on long positions. Similarly, a Bearish FVG can suggest a potential buying opportunity, expecting the price to revert back to its fair value.
Another application is in confirming existing trends. The FVG can act as a confirmation tool for trends identified by other indicators or analysis techniques. When a Bullish FVG aligns with an uptrend, it may strengthen the bullish bias and provide more confidence in the upward momentum. Conversely, a Bearish FVG in conjunction with a downtrend may reinforce the bearish sentiment and support the idea of further downside potential.
Parameters:
Adjusting the parameters of the FVG indicator can be beneficial based on the trader's trading style and time frame. The body-to-wick ratio threshold and lookback period can be modified to capture different types of fair value gaps and adapt to different market conditions. Shorter lookback periods may help identify more recent FVGs, which could be suitable for short-term traders, while longer periods may capture larger price inefficiencies and cater to longer-term traders.
Limitations:
However, it's important to note that the FVG indicator, like any technical analysis tool, has its limitations. It relies on historical price patterns and may not always accurately predict future price movements. The interpretation of FVGs requires careful analysis and should be used in conjunction with other indicators, technical analysis tools, and fundamental factors to make well-informed trading decisions. Traders should also exercise proper risk management and consider the overall market context when using the FVG indicator.
In conclusion, the Fair Value Gap (FVG) indicator provides traders with valuable insights into price inefficiencies and deviations from fair value. By identifying Bearish and Bullish FVGs, traders can potentially uncover trading opportunities and make more informed decisions. However, it is crucial to combine the FVG indicator with other analysis tools, conduct thorough analysis, and exercise proper risk management to achieve consistent trading success.

Liquidity PeaksThe "Liquidity Peaks" indicator is a tool designed to identify significant supply and demand zones based on volumetric analysis. It analyzes the volume profile within a specified lookback range to pinpoint the most volumetric point and draw corresponding zones on the price chart.
The 𝐋𝐢𝐪. 𝐏𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐬 indicator utilizes volume data to identify key supply and demand areas on the price chart. By examining the volume profile within a defined lookback range, it highlights three distinct zones: liquidity grab, volume containment, and the most volumetric point.
Zones and their meanings:
Liquidity grab (Orange box): This zone represents a price level where there is a significant swipe of the previous demand zone within the volume range. It indicates a potential shift in market sentiment and serves as a key supply or demand area.
Volume containment (Gray box): This zone displays the area of volume contained before the peak in volume. It provides insights into the range where buying or selling pressure was concentrated, highlighting potential support or resistance levels.
Most volumetric point (Light blue box): This zone represents the point within the lookback range that exhibits the highest volume. It signifies a significant area of market interest and indicates a potential supply or demand level.
Adjustable options:
Adjust liquidity Grab: This option allows you to adjust the size of the boxes. When enabled, the box size is set to twice the size of the high or low of the candle's wick. This adjustment enhances the visibility and accuracy of identifying swipes at specific price levels.
Show origin: Enabling this option ensures that the liquidity boxes are drawn from the wick they were created from. This provides a clear visual reference to the specific candle and highlights the liquidity levels associated with it.
Utility:
The 𝐋𝐢𝐪. 𝐏𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐬 indicator is a valuable tool for traders and investors seeking to identify significant supply and demand zones in the market. By analyzing volume data and drawing corresponding zones on the chart, it helps to pinpoint areas where buying or selling pressure is likely to emerge.
Traders can utilize this information to identify potential support and resistance levels, plan their entries and exits, and make more informed trading decisions. The liquidity grab zones can act as potential reversal or breakout points, while the volume containment zones and most volumetric points provide insights into areas of high market interest.
It is important to note that this indicator should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and indicators to confirm trading signals and validate market dynamics.

ATR VisualizerAdvance Your Market Analysis with the True Range Indicator
The True Range Indicator is a sophisticated screener meticulously developed to bolster your trading execution by presenting an exceptional understanding of the market direction. The centerpiece of this instrument is a distinctive candle configuration depicting the Average True Range (ATR) and the Bear/Bull range. However, it traverses beyond the conventional channels to offer specific market settings to boost your trading decisions.
User-Defined Settings
Broadly, the indicator offers five dynamic settings:
Bear/Bull Range
The Bear/Bull Range outlines the ATR for each candle type - bearish and bullish - and then smartly opts for the pertinent one based on the prevalent market circumstances. This feature aids in comparing the range of bullish and bearish candlesticks, which deepens your understanding of the price action and volatility.
Bearish Range
The Bearish Range isolates and computes the ATR for bearish candles solely. Utilizing this option spots the bear-dominated periods and provides insights about potential market reversals or downward continuations.
Bullish Range
Opposite to the Bearish Range, the Bullish Range setting tabulates the ATR exclusively for bullish candles. It assists in tracking the periods when bulls control, enlightening traders about the possibility of upward continuations or trend reversals.
Average Range
The Average Range provides an unbiased measure of range without prioritizing either bull or bear trends. This model is ideal for traders looking for a holistic interpretation of market behavior, regardless of direction.
Cumulative Average Range
Equally significant is the Cumulative Average Range which calculates the aggregate moving average of the true ranges for an expressed period. This setting is extremely valuable when evaluating the long-term volatility and spotting potential breakouts.
Dual Candle Configuration
Going a step ahead, the True Range Indicator uniquely offers the possibility to incorporate more than one candle estimate on your screen. This ensures simultaneous analysis of multiple market dynamics, thereby enhancing your trading precision multifold.
Concluding Thoughts
In essence, the True Range Indicator is an indispensable companion for traders looking to not only leverage market volatility but also make educated predictions. Equipped with an array of insightful market settings and the ability to display dual candle estimates on-screen, you can customize the functionality to suit your unique trading style and magnify your market performance dramatically.
Liquidity Sweeps and RaidsThis basic script calculates and plots runs on liquidity levels through Raids and Sweeps. When the price violates the 3 fractal level, a raid or sweep occurs. You can use it to automate markup, understand liquidity levels, and reduce human error in your analysis. Additionally, you can set up an alarm to notify you when new sweeps or raids occur. Combine it with your current strategy or try any price action theory you prefer. Essentially, the price always seeks liquidity, so when some of it is taken, it makes sense to look for a reaction and potential reversal. Stay ahead by capitalizing on liquidity insights for potential reversals. Cheers, Cancamurria.
IKH Cloud V1.0 (nextSignals)The IKH Cloud V1.0 (nextSignals) is an Ichomoku-type indicator that can be used for various trading strategies. It's based on a ThinkScript study from @stephenharlinmd (aka nextSignals) that uses an instantaneous moving average as the base MA, and a custom trailing stop. Both of these components form the cloud.
Indicator Components and Calculation
The indicator comprises two key components:
Instantaneous Moving Average (IMA) : This is a type of moving average that places a greater weight on the most recent data points, and is based on Ehler's book "Rocket Science for Traders". This is slightly different from the Doc's original, but is very approximate.
Trailing Stop : This component helps determine the stop loss level that moves along with the price. The trailing stop is based on the highest high and the lowest low of the last 5 bars, as well as the simple moving averages of the low and high of the previous bar. The trailing stop is calculated separately for each condition: when the bar index is greater than 1 and when the previous 'a' variable is either 1 or 0.
These two components are used to create a filled area on the chart, also known as the 'cloud'. The color of the cloud and the candlesticks change based on the relative positions of the IMA and the trailing stop.
How to Use the Indicator
The following are just ideas on how to use this indicator, and is not financial advice in any form:
Trend Identification: When the IMA is above the trailing stop (cloud), it indicates an uptrend, and when it's below, it indicates a downtrend.
Entry/Exit Signals: Traders can consider going long when the candlesticks move above the cloud and short when they move below the cloud.
Stop Loss Level: The trailing stop line (the cloud's edge) can serve as a dynamic stop loss level.
Please don't use just this indicator on its own. Please use this in conjunction with other analysis tools, indicators, and systems you already have in place. Always consider the overall market context and use appropriate risk management strategies.
Price Delta HeatmapThe Price Delta Heatmap is an indicator designed to visualize the price changes of an asset over time. It helps traders identify and analyze significant price movements and potential volatility. The indicator calculates the price delta, which is the difference between the current close price and the previous close price. It then categorizes the price deltas into different color ranges to create a heatmap-like display on the chart.
The indicator uses user-defined thresholds to determine the color ranges. These thresholds represent the minimum price change required for a specific color to be assigned. The thresholds are adjustable to accommodate different asset classes and trading strategies. Positive price deltas are associated with bullish movements, while negative price deltas represent bearish movements.
The indicator plots bars color-coded according to the price delta range it falls into. The color ranges can be customized to match personal preferences or specific trading strategies. Additionally, the indicator includes signal shapes below the bars to highlight significant positive or negative price deltas. Traders can adjust the threshold values based on their preferred sensitivity to price changes. Higher threshold values may filter out minor price movements and focus on more significant shifts, while lower threshold values will capture even minor fluctuations.
****The default settings have the thresholds set to levels of 100, 50, 20, 10, 0, -10, -20, -50, and -100. These numbers are well-suited for assets such as Ethereum or Bitcoin which are larger in price than an asset that has a price of $1.50, for example. To compensate, adjust the thresholds in the settings to reflect the price delta on the desired asset. All coloration and horizontal line plots will adjust to reflect these changes.****
Traders can interpret the Price Delta Heatmap as follows:
-- Bright green bars indicate the highest positive price deltas, suggesting strong bullish price movements.
-- Green bars represent positive price deltas above the third threshold, indicating significant bullish price changes.
-- Olive bars indicate positive price deltas above the second threshold, suggesting moderate bullish price movements.
-- Yellow bars represent positive price deltas above the lowest threshold, indicating minor bullish price changes. This color is reflected on the negative side as well. Yellow bars below zero indicate negative price deltas below the lowest threshold, suggesting minor bearish price changes.
-- White bars represent zero price deltas, indicating no significant price movement.
-- Orange bars represent negative price deltas below the second threshold, indicating moderate bearish price movements.
-- Red bars indicate negative price deltas below the third threshold, suggesting significant bearish price changes.
-- Maroon bars represent the lowest negative price deltas, indicating strong bearish price movements.
The coloration of the Price Delta line itself is determined by the line's relation to the second positive and second negative thresholds (default +/- 20) - if the line is above the second positive threshold, the line is colored lime (and is reflected in a lime arrow at the bottom of the indicator); if the line is below the second negative threshold, the line is colored fuchsia (also reflected as an arrow); if the line is between thresholds, it is colored aqua.
The Price Delta Heatmap can be used in various trading strategies and applications. Some potential use cases include:
-- Trend identification : The indicator helps traders identify periods of high volatility and potential trend reversals.
-- Volatility analysis : By observing the color changes in the heatmap, traders can gauge the volatility of an asset and adjust their risk management strategies accordingly.
-- Confirmation tool : The indicator can be used as a confirmation tool alongside other technical indicators, such as trend-following indicators or oscillators.
-- Breakout trading : Traders can look for price delta bars of a specific color range to identify potential breakout opportunities.
However, it's important to note that the Price Delta Heatmap has certain limitations. These include:
-- Lagging nature : The indicator relies on historical price data, which means it may not provide real-time insights into price movements.
-- Sensitivity to thresholds : The choice of threshold values affects the indicator's sensitivity and may vary depending on the asset being traded. It requires experimentation and adjustment to find optimal values.
-- Market conditions : The indicator's effectiveness may vary depending on market conditions, such as low liquidity or sudden news events.
Traders should consider using the Price Delta Heatmap in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and incorporate risk management strategies to enhance their trading decisions.
Anchored VWAP+This indicator is an enhanced version of the Anchored VWAP indicator with additional functions:
1. Anchored AP (average price). It removes the volume weighting step in Anchored VWAP, and can display the average price over a period of time. For example, if the price of the stock in the last 3 days is 100, 200, 300, then AP is their average value of 200
2. Anchored AC (average cost). The average cost over time can be displayed. For example, if the price of the stock in the last 2 days is 100,300, then AC is (1+1)/(1/100+1/300)=150
When using the indicator, you need to choose a starting point, then the indicator will start to calculate the subsequent VWAP, AP and AC from this starting point, and draw 3 lines in the graph
These three lines can be regarded as the average cost line of the market, with potential support and resistance effects
We have filled the shadow between VWAP and AP, which can be regarded as a potential support resistance band
===========================中文版本===========================
该指标为增强版本的Anchored VWAP指标。在Anchored VWAP基础上增加了额外功能：
1. Anchored AP。其去掉了Anchored VWAP中成交量加权的步骤，可以显示一段时间的平均价格。举个例子，假如股票最近3天的价格为100，200，300，那么AP为他们的平均值200
2. Anchored AC。可以显示一段时间的平均成本。举个例子，假如股票最近2天的价格为100，300，那么AC为(1+1)/(1/100+1/300)=150
使用指标时你需要先选择一个起点，随后指标将会以该起点开始计算后续的VWAP、AP和AC，并且在图中绘制3根线
这3根线均可以视作是市场的平均成本线，具有潜在的支撑和阻力效果
我们让VWAP和AP之间填充了阴影，该阴影可以视作潜在的支撑阻力带
Trendilo (OPEN-SOURCE)The provided code is a custom indicator called "Trendilo" in TradingView. It helps traders identify trends in price data. The indicator calculates the percentage change of the chosen price source and applies smoothing to it. Then, it calculates the Arnaud Legoux Moving Average (ALMA) of the smoothed percentage change. The ALMA is compared to a root mean square (RMS) band, which represents the expected range of the ALMA values. Based on this comparison, the indicator determines whether the trend is up, down, or sideways. The indicator line is plotted in a color corresponding to the trend direction. The indicator also provides the option to fill the area between the indicator line and the RMS band. Additionally, users can choose to color the bars of the chart based on the trend direction. Overall, the "Trendilo" indicator helps traders visually identify trends and potential reversals in the price data.
