Initial Balance Wave Map📊 Initial Balance Wave Map – Powered by VWAP Wave The Initial Balance Wave Map is your visual roadmap for navigating the first hour of trading like a pro. Built to align with the VWAP Wave System, this indicator automatically plots the Initial Balance (IB) high and low, calculates real-time IB extensions, and layers in key midpoints and volume-based structure to map out high-probability zones for both reversals and breakouts. This upgraded indicator builds upon the open-source foundation by @noop-noop, with enhancements and user-facing labels tailored for Auction Market Theory, scalping, and structure-based trade setups. 🔍 Key Features: ✅ Automatically plots IB High/Low based on session times (customizable) 🔁 Displays +1x / +2x IB extensions and midpoints for precision targeting 📐 Integrated with VWAP Wave strategy: use with deviation bands for full context 🎯 Works across futures, forex, and crypto — universal structure map 🎨 Optional visual highlights for calculation window and labeling 💡 How to Use: Fade setups: Look for price rejection at ±1x or ±2x IB extensions inside a balanced market. Breakout setups: Combine IB breaks with VWAP Wave price discovery for high-momentum plays. Return to value: When price rejects extension levels and rotates, target the IB midpoint or VWAP. Whether you’re scalping futures like NQ & ES, swinging gold, or analyzing forex pairs, the Initial Balance Wave Map gives you the structural clarity to react instead of guess. For more information, visit vwapwave.com and find the VWAP Wave System official published book on Amazon.com . 🙌 Credits: This script builds upon the excellent open-source work by @noop-noop.

OTE+STDV MultiTF IndicatorVERY ROUGH DRAFT OF INDICATOR EXPECTS BUGS. I AM NOT A CODER SO THIS SHOULD NOT BE PERFECT. Place limit orders on yellow lines. You will get a buy signal only during perfect A+ setups. PLEASE MESSAGE ME IF YOU ARE A CODER AND CAN FIX THIS OR MAKE IT BETTER Discord: itscwiby Orange Lines are Rejection Zones Yellow Lines are Limit order spots. Usually you want to take this with a 40 tick SL. You can also use a Fib tool on the green box to get a better entry. Generally you want to look at the 30m chart or higher for these zones and find a optimal entry on a smaller timeframe.

Volumatic Support/Resistance Levels [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW A smart volume-powered tool for identifying key support and resistance zones—enhanced with real-time volume histogram fills and high-volume markers. Volumatic Support/Resistance Levels detects structural levels from swing highs and lows, and wraps them in dynamic histograms that reflect the relative volume strength around those zones. It highlights the strongest price levels not just by structure—but by the weight of market participation. 🔵 CONCEPTS Price Zones: Support and resistance levels are drawn from recent price pivots, while volume is used to visually enhance these zones with filled histograms and highlight moments of peak activity using markers. Histogram Fill = Activity Zone: The width and intensity of each filled zone adjusts to recent volume bursts. High-Volume Alerts: Circle markers highlight moments of volume dominance directly on the levels—revealing pressure points of support/resistance. Clean Visual Encoding: Red = resistance zones, green = support zones, orange = high-volume bars. 🔵 FEATURES Detects pivot-based resistance (highs) and support (lows) using a customizable range length. Wraps these levels in volume-weighted bands that expand/contract based on percentile volume. Color fill intensity increases with rising volume pressure, creating a live histogram feel. When volume > user-defined threshold , the indicator adds circle markers at the top and bottom of that price level zone. Bar coloring highlights the candles that generated this high-volume behavior (orange by default). Adjustable settings for all thresholds and colors, so traders can dial in volume sensitivity. 🔵 HOW TO USE Identify volume-confirmed resistance and support zones for potential reversal or breakout setups. Focus on levels with intense histogram fill and circle markers —they indicate strong participation. Use bar coloring to track when key activity started and align it with broader market context. Works well in combination with order blocks, trend indicators, or liquidity zones. Ideal for day traders, scalpers, and volume-sensitive setups. 🔵 CONCLUSION Volumatic Support/Resistance Levels elevates traditional support and resistance logic by anchoring it in volume context. Instead of relying solely on price action, it gives traders insight into where real conviction lies—by mapping how aggressively the market defended or rejected key levels. It's a visual, reactive, and volume-conscious upgrade to your structural toolkit.

Fair Value GapsFair Value Gaps Indicator The Fair Value Gaps (FVG) Indicator is a sleek, lightweight tool designed to identify and display unfilled fair value price gaps on any chart and timeframe. It dynamically updates as price moves into gaps, shrinking the displayed area to show only the remaining unfilled portion until the gap is fully closed. With a user-friendly settings panel, traders can customize visuals to suit their style, including a minimalist version. Features When a valid FVG is detected through a three-candle pattern, a box appears, highlighting the precise gap range. As price enters the gap, the box adjusts to reflect the remaining unfilled area, and when fully filled, the gap is deleted, allowing new gaps to appear. The settings panel offers robust customization for a tailored experience. Preset Styles : Custom : Define your own color and zone extension settings. (Default) Blue Boxes : Blue gaps with 85% transparency and zones extended to the right. Minimalist Yellow : Yellow gaps with 75% transparency, confined to the original gap area on the candlestick. Color : Change the gap color and transparency. Extend FVG Zone : Enable or disable zone extension to the right. Show Borders : Toggle subtle borders on or off for enhanced visibility. Maximum FVGs Displayed : Change the number of gaps displayed on the chart. Thank you for your interest in my work. I use these fair value gaps as part of my trade trigger for many of my trade entries almost every day. If you have any comments, bugs, or suggestions, please leave them here, or you can find me on Twitter or Discord. @ ContrarianIRL Open-source developer for over 25 years

Opening Range Breakout (ORB) with Fib RetracementOverview “ORB with Fib Retracement” is a Pine Script indicator that anchors a full Fibonacci framework to the first minutes of the trading day (the opening-range breakout, or ORB). After the ORB window closes the script: Locks-in that session’s high and low. Calculates a complete ladder of Fibonacci retracement levels between them (0 → 100 %). Projects symmetric extension levels above and below the range (±1.618, ±2.618, ±3.618, ±4.618 by default). Sub-divides every extension slice with additional 23.6 %, 38.2 %, 50 %, 61.8 % and 78.6 % mid-lines so each “zone” has its own inner fib grid. Plots the whole structure and—optionally—extends every line into the future for ongoing reference. **Session time / timezone** – Defines the ORB window (defaults 09:30–09:45 EST). **Show All Fib Levels** – Toggles every retracement and extension line on or off. **Show Extended Lines** – Draws dotted, extend-right projections of every level. **Color group** – Assigns colors to buy-side (green), sell-side (red), and internal fibs (gray). **Extension value inputs** – Allows custom +/- 1.618 to 4.618 fib levels for personalized projection zones.

Ticker Pulse Meter + Fear EKG StrategyDescription The Ticker Pulse Meter + Fear EKG Strategy is a technical analysis tool designed to identify potential entry and exit points for long positions based on price action relative to historical ranges. It combines two proprietary indicators: the Ticker Pulse Meter (TPM), which measures price positioning within short- and long-term ranges, and the Fear EKG, a VIX-inspired oscillator that detects extreme market conditions. The strategy is non-repainting, ensuring signals are generated only on confirmed bars to avoid false positives. Visual enhancements, such as optional moving averages and Bollinger Bands, provide additional context but are not core to the strategy's logic. This script is suitable for traders seeking a systematic approach to capturing momentum and mean-reversion opportunities. How It Works The strategy evaluates price action using two key metrics: Ticker Pulse Meter (TPM): Measures the current price's position within short- and long-term price ranges to identify momentum or overextension. Fear EKG: Detects extreme selling pressure (akin to "irrational selling") by analyzing price behavior relative to historical lows, inspired by volatility-based oscillators. Entry signals are generated when specific conditions align, indicating potential buying opportunities. Exits are triggered based on predefined thresholds or partial position closures to manage risk. The strategy supports customizable lookback periods, thresholds, and exit percentages, allowing flexibility across different markets and timeframes. Visual cues, such as entry/exit dots and a position table, enhance usability, while optional overlays like moving averages and Bollinger Bands provide additional chart context. Calculation Overview Price Range Calculations: Short-Term Range: Uses the lowest low (min_price_short) and highest high (max_price_short) over a user-defined short lookback period (lookback_short, default 50 bars). Long-Term Range: Uses the lowest low (min_price_long) and highest high (max_price_long) over a user-defined long lookback period (lookback_long, default 200 bars). Percentage Metrics: pct_above_short: Percentage of the current close above the short-term range. pct_above_long: Percentage of the current close above the long-term range. Combined metrics (pct_above_long_above_short, pct_below_long_below_short) normalize price action for signal generation. Signal Generation: Long Entry (TPM): Triggered when pct_above_long_above_short crosses above a user-defined threshold (entryThresholdhigh, default 20) and pct_below_long_below_short is below a low threshold (entryThresholdlow, default 40). Long Entry (Fear EKG): Triggered when pct_below_long_below_short crosses under an extreme threshold (orangeEntryThreshold, default 95), indicating potential oversold conditions. Long Exit: Triggered when pct_above_long_above_short crosses under a profit-taking level (profitTake, default 95). Partial exits are supported via a user-defined percentage (exitAmt, default 50%). Non-Repainting Logic: Signals are calculated using data from the previous bar ( ) and only plotted on confirmed bars (barstate.isconfirmed), ensuring reliability. Visual Enhancements: Optional moving averages (SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, or SMMA) and Bollinger Bands can be enabled for trend context. A position table displays real-time metrics, including open positions, Fear EKG, and Ticker Pulse values. Background highlights mark periods of high selling pressure. Entry Rules Long Entry: TPM Signal: Occurs when the price shows strength relative to both short- and long-term ranges, as defined by pct_above_long_above_short crossing above entryThresholdhigh and pct_below_long_below_short below entryThresholdlow. Fear EKG Signal: Triggered by extreme selling pressure, when pct_below_long_below_short crosses under orangeEntryThreshold. This signal is optional and can be toggled via enable_yellow_signals. Entries are executed only on confirmed bars to prevent repainting. Exit Rules Long Exit: Triggered when pct_above_long_above_short crosses under profitTake. Partial exits are supported, with the strategy closing a user-defined percentage of the position (exitAmt) up to four times per position (exit_count limit). Exits can be disabled or adjusted via enable_short_signal and exitPercentage settings. Inputs Backtest Start Date: Defines the start of the backtesting period (default: Jan 1, 2017). Lookback Periods: Short (lookback_short, default 50) and long (lookback_long, default 200) periods for range calculations. Resolution: Timeframe for price data (default: Daily). Entry/Exit Thresholds: entryThresholdhigh (default 20): Threshold for TPM entry. entryThresholdlow (default 40): Secondary condition for TPM entry. orangeEntryThreshold (default 95): Threshold for Fear EKG entry. profitTake (default 95): Exit threshold. exitAmt (default 50%): Percentage of position to exit. Visual Options: Toggle for moving averages and Bollinger Bands, with customizable types and lengths. Notes The strategy is designed to work across various timeframes and assets, with data sourced from user-selected resolutions (i_res). Alerts are included for long entry and exit signals, facilitating integration with TradingView's alert system. The script avoids repainting by using confirmed bar data and shifted calculations ( ). Visual elements (e.g., SMA, Bollinger Bands) are inspired by standard Pine Script practices and are optional, not integral to the core logic. Usage Apply the script to a chart, adjust input settings to suit your trading style, and use the visual cues (entry/exit dots, position table) to monitor signals. Enable alerts for real-time notifications. Designed to work best on Daily timeframe.
