Bull Flag DetectionThe FuturesGod bull flag indicator aims to identify the occurrence of bull flags.
Bull flags are a popular trading pattern that allows users to gauge long entries into a given market. Flags consist of a pole that is followed by either a downward or sideways consolidation period.
This script can be used on any market but was intended for futures (NQ, ES) trading on the intraday timeframe.
The script does the following:
1. Identifies the occurrence of a flag pole. This is based on a lookback period and percentage threshold decided by the user.
2. Marks the consolidation area after the pole occurrence using swing highs and swing lows.
3. Visually the above is represented by a shaded green area.
4. When a pole is detected, it is marked by a downward off-white triangle. Note that if the percentage threshold is reached several times on the same upward climb, the script will continue to identify points where the threshold for pole detection is met.
5. Also visualized are the 20, 50 and 200 period exponential moving averages. The area between the 20 and 50 EMAs are shaded to provide traders a visual of a possible support area.

ICT Index ScheduleNew ICT student here, decided to compile the daily schedule and salient levels for London and New York index sessions into one place to aid my learning – thought others might benefit from this too :)
The script works with whatever timezone setting, however make sure to change your timezone to New York time if you want to have the proper time-price alignment (I personally find it helpful when studying).
Here's a legend of all the elements displayed at once:

// Couldn't find a comprehensive script with all the elements included, s/o to @the1dv for their Days of Week script.
Pre Market \ Opening Range High LowGreen vertical lines are showing pre market open and then the opening range as the first hour of market NYSE market open
Pre market high and low are blue lines | intraday opening range high low are in white
Trades are taken in the current direction above | below range breaks with the direction of price action using the moving averages
Price breaking through moving averages and a range is the optimal trade to enter - exit at next range for target - stop loss below the lower | higher moving average depending on short or long
A break above or below the intraday high or low and pre market high or low can give massive profits trailing your stop loss as price runs
Using MA 5 and 12 to filter out entries and exits above or below the ranges short or long is also another strategy to implement
BEST TIME FRAME TO USE IS 5 MINUTE
Equity Index Extended HoursHighlights the extended hours/Globex session for US Equity Index Futures.
Overnight Bollinger Band ExtremesThis script is a combination of my overnight fakeout script and bollinger band color bars. It's designed to be used on CME/CBOT Equity Indexes during their GLOBEX session. It uses the built in Bollinger Band script and highlights bars that exceed the upper/lower bands during the overnight session.
Equity Index Overnight FakeoutThis script highlights when price violates the highest high or lowest low within the user's selected lookback period, with the caveat that it occurs during the GLOBEX session. The script is designed to work exclusively with the trading hours for CME and CBOT Equity Index futures. I'm planning to make a more customizable version down the line.
My reasoning behind this very simple script is that the low liquidity and participation of the overnight session creates a tendency for moves at extremes to mean revert. Let me know what you think.
