Probabilistic Trend Oscillator** MACD PLOTS ARE NOT PART OF THE INDICATOR IT IS FOR COMPARSION**
The "Probabilistic Trend Oscillator" is a technical indicator designed to measure trend strength and direction by analyzing price behavior relative to a moving average over both long-term and short-term periods. This indicator incorporates several innovative features, including probabilistic trend detection, enhanced strength scaling, and percentile-based thresholds for identifying potential trend reversals.
Key Components
Inputs:
The indicator allows users to customize several key parameters:
EMA Length defines the period for the Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which serves as a baseline to classify trend direction.
Long and Short Term Lengths provide customizable periods for analyzing trend strength over different timeframes.
Signal Line Length is used to smooth the trend strength data, helping users spot more reliable trend signals.
Extreme Value Lookback Length controls how far back to look when calculating percentile thresholds, which are used to identify overbought and oversold zones.
Trend Classification:
The indicator categorizes price behavior into four conditions:
Green: Price closes above the open and is also above the EMA, suggesting a strong upward trend.
Red: Price closes below the open but is above the EMA, indicating weaker upward pressure.
Green1: Price closes above the open but remains below the EMA, representing weak upward movement.
Red1: Price closes below the open and the EMA, signaling a strong downward trend.
Trend Strength Calculation:
The script calculates long-term and short-term trend values based on the frequency of these trend conditions, normalizing them to create probabilistic scores.
It then measures the difference between the short-term and long-term trend values, creating a metric that reflects the intensity of the current trend. This comparison provides insight into whether the trend is strengthening or weakening.
Enhanced Trend Strength:
To emphasize significant movements, the trend strength metric is scaled by the average absolute price change (distance between close and open prices). This creates an "enhanced trend strength" value that highlights periods with high momentum.
Users can toggle between two variations of trend strength:
Absolute Trend Strength is a straightforward measure of the trend's force.
Relative Trend Strength accounts for deviations between short term and long term values, focusing on how current price action differs from a long term behavior.
Percentile-Based Thresholds:
The indicator calculates percentile thresholds over the specified lookback period to mark extreme values:
The 97th and 3rd percentiles act as overbought and oversold zones, respectively, indicating potential reversal points.
Intermediate levels (75th and 25th percentiles) are added to give additional context for overbought or oversold conditions, creating a probabilistic range.
Visualization:
The selected trend strength value (either absolute or relative) is plotted in orange.
Overbought (green) and oversold (red) percentiles are marked with dashed lines and filled in blue, highlighting potential reversal zones.
The signal line—a smoothed EMA of the trend strength—is plotted in white, helping users to confirm trend changes.
A gray horizontal line at zero acts as a baseline, further clarifying the strength of upward vs. downward trends.
Summary
This indicator provides a flexible, probabilistic approach to trend detection, allowing users to monitor trend strength with customizable thresholds and lookback periods. By combining percentile-based thresholds with enhanced trend strength scaling, it offers insights into market reversals and momentum shifts, making it a valuable tool for both trend-following and counter-trend trading strategies.
TEMA Cross & Bollinger Middle AlertThe "TEMA Cross & Bollinger Middle Alert" script for TradingView is designed to track and provide alerts based on the crossover events of two Triple Exponential Moving Averages (TEMA) and the middle band of Bollinger Bands. This script is created using TradingView’s Pine Script (version 5) and includes adjustable parameters for flexibility.
Stormico Screener 40, EMA 80 (Slow Stochastic 8)This screener is a tribute to Alexandre Wolwacz, known as "Stormer," one of the most influential traders in the Brazilian financial market.
Stormer is renowned for his experience and skill in technical analysis, as well as his dedication to teaching trading strategies to traders at all levels. He is particularly known for his focus on strategies with a positive risk-reward ratio and low drawdown, something he conveys to his followers with clarity and practicality.
The screener presented here uses a setup frequently employed by Stormer to capture pullbacks in uptrends, focusing on strategic entries, short stops, and long targets. It utilizes an 8-period Slow Stochastic and an 80-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and is suitable for Day Trading, Swing Trading, and Position Trading on weekly charts.
Main Elements of the Setup:
80-Period Exponential Moving Average (EMA): The 80 EMA is used as a trend filter. When the price is above it, we consider an uptrend and look for buying opportunities. When the price is below it, buy trades are avoided, prioritizing trades that follow the upward trend.
Slow Stochastic Oscillator: The 8-period Slow Stochastic is used to capture entry points during pullbacks. In an uptrend, we look for moments when the oscillator reaches oversold levels (below 20), indicating a possible entry at an attractive price while remaining aligned with the main market direction.
Entry and Exit Criteria:
Buy: The entry occurs when the stochastic oscillator is in oversold levels and the price stays above an ascending 80 EMA with a bullish candle or inside bar, or when the stochastic turns upward.
Short Stop: The stop-loss is positioned below a recent support level, limiting risk and minimizing drawdown.
Long Target: Once in operation, the goal is to ride the trend with wider targets to maximize gains. The target suggested by Stormer can be set at twice the risk (2x Risk) or the previous high on the chart.
Positive Risk-Reward Ratio and Low Drawdown
With a short stop and a larger profit target, this setup is ideal for capturing entries with a favorable risk-reward ratio, minimizing drawdown and maximizing profit potential in trades that follow the trend.
This screener applies this setup across 40 assets, identifying the best opportunities according to the "Stormer" method. It displays the 8 and 80 EMAs and can be complemented by the Stormico Screener 40, Slow Stochastic (EMA 80).
The setup was also a favorite of his daughter Carol, who contributed greatly to live sessions and classes with Stormer. This screener honors both of them and Alexandre Wolwacz’s methodology, with deep respect for all he has contributed to the market and his students.
Three SMAs with AlertsThis Pine Script version 5 script creates three Simple Moving Averages (SMA) with values of 20, 50, and 200 periods, and plots them on the chart.
The SMAs are color-coded to make them easily distinguishable.
Additionally, the script generates alerts when the price crosses above or below the 20-period SMA.
Auto alerts are triggered to notify the user of these crossover events, and visual markers (plotshape) are added to the chart to indicate where the crossovers occur.
Smoothed Moving Average ModifiedA feature has been added to the standard version of the SMMA: the user can specify an integer value to move the SMMA. A positive value will move the average forward (to the right), while a negative value will move it backward (to the left) relative to current prices.

Market Structure Algo V2 [OmegaTools]The Market Structure Algo V2 (MS Algo V2) is an advanced TradingView indicator developed by OmegaTools to provide traders with a comprehensive analysis of market structure. This tool refines the insights provided by its predecessor, combining enhanced pivot point analysis, dynamic market structure scoring, and zone visualization to deliver an intuitive view of potential market movements. Through custom settings, the MS Algo V2 allows users to tailor the indicator to fit their trading strategies more closely, offering enhanced adaptability to both short-term and long-term trends.
Core Functionality
The MS Algo V2 differentiates between internal and external market structures by analyzing pivot highs and lows over user-defined periods. The internal market structure focuses on shorter timeframes, providing insights into recent price action, while the external structure considers broader trends. This dual-layered approach helps traders distinguish between immediate and overarching market trends.
The indicator introduces improved visualization for areas of interest or zones around pivot points, adjustable through zone distance settings. These zones serve as potential support and resistance areas, helping traders anticipate price reactions at key levels. In addition to the zones, the indicator now provides gradient-based color coding on bars, reflecting the market structure’s bullish or bearish intensity. This visual enhancement aids in quickly interpreting the current trend's strength.
Dynamic signal generation has been refined in MS Algo V2. The indicator now offers both classic signals and breakout signals based on the market structure, including entries, exits, and change-of-character (CHoCH) alerts. Signals are generated based on price interactions with pivot levels, indicating potential long and short opportunities.
Operational Mechanism
The MS Algo V2 calculates pivot highs and lows over specified periods to define internal and external market structures. A market structure score is derived from these pivot points, classifying the market into bullish or bearish extremes. Signals are generated as the closing price interacts with these levels, marking entry and exit points based on the calculated structure.
A new feature in this version is zone visualization, where zones are plotted around a dynamic moving average derived from the exponential and simple moving averages (EMA and SMA). The zones are adjusted based on ATR (Average True Range) and the specified zone distance percentile, providing a clear visual representation of potential support and resistance regions. The external and internal zones are represented with different levels of transparency for quick reference.
Usage Guidelines
To apply the MS Algo V2 to your TradingView charts, adjust the internal and external market structure settings to match your preferred analysis timeframes. The line style and width of each structure can also be customized for a tailored view. The Zone Distance setting allows users to define the percentile range of the zones around the moving average, providing further flexibility in identifying potential areas of support and resistance.
For a color-coded overview of market sentiment, the bar gradient feature can be enabled. This option uses a gradient that reflects the bullish or bearish intensity of the market structure, giving traders a visual cue on the market’s overall trend. Color-coded signals and zone fill areas further assist in interpreting the current market structure and identifying potential trade areas.
The indicator includes customizable alerts for long and short signals, as well as specific breakout alerts (BOS) and change-of-character (CHoCH) signals. These alerts can help traders stay informed about significant market structure changes, supporting timely trading decisions.
Understanding the Indicator’s Originality
The MS Algo V2 stands out due to its robust integration of pivot analysis, zone visualization, and market structure scoring, offering a unique perspective on market dynamics. With features like color-coded signals, bar gradients, and configurable alerts, MS Algo V2 provides an edge in understanding both the current market environment and potential turning points. This indicator’s ability to represent the market’s structure visually makes it a powerful addition to any trader’s toolkit, especially for those seeking a deeper, multi-layered approach to market analysis.
Depth Trend Indicator - RSIDepth Trend Indicator - RSI
This indicator is designed to identify trends and gauge pullback strength by combining the power of RSI and moving averages with a depth-weighted calculation. The script was created by me, Nathan Farmer and is based on a multi-step process to determine trend strength and direction, adjusted by a "depth" factor for more accurate signal analysis.
How It Works
Trend Definition Using RSI: The RSI Moving Average ( rsiMa ) is calculated to assess the current trend, using customizable parameters for the RSI Period and MA Period .
Trends are defined as follows:
Uptrend : RSI MA > Critical RSI Value
Downtrend : RSI MA < Critical RSI Value
Pullback Depth Calculation: To measure pullback strength relative to the current trend, the indicator calculates a Depth Percentage . This is defined as the portion of the gap between the moving average and the price covered by a pullback.
Depth-Weighted RSI Calculation: The Depth Percentage is then applied as a weighting factor on the RSI Moving Average , giving us a Weighted RSI line that adjusts to the depth of pullbacks. This line is rather noisy, and as such we take a moving average to smooth out some of the noise.
Key Parameters
RSI Period : The period for RSI calculation.
MA Period : The moving average period applied to RSI.
Price MA Period : Determines the SMA period for price, used to calculate pullback depth.
Smoothing Length : Length of smoothing applied to the weighted RSI, creating a more stable signal.
RSI Critical Value : The critical value (level) used in determining whether we're in an uptrend or a downtrend.
Depth Critical Value : The critical value (level) used in determining whether or not the depth weighted value confirms the state of a trend.
Notes:
As always, backtest this indicator and modify the parameters as needed for your specific asset, over your specific timeframe. I chose these defaults as they worked well on the assets I look at, but it is likely you tend to look at a different group of assets over a different timeframe than what I do.
Large pullbacks can create large downward spikes in the weighted line. This isn't graphically pleasing, but I have tested it with various methods of normalization and smoothing and found the simple smoothing used in the indicator to be best despite this.
COIN/ETH RatioThis TradingView indicator calculates and visualizes the ratio between Coinbase's stock price (COIN) and Ethereum's price (ETH) to help traders compare Coinbase's performance relative to Ethereum over time. This can be useful for those interested in understanding correlations or relative strength between a traditional crypto exchange stock and a major cryptocurrency.
Brono MacroThis indicator, developed by someone (satz) helps identify macro market trends and potential reversal points by aligning with Institutional Order Flow. It provides visual markers for key timeframes and allows traders to better time entries and exits based on larger market movements. Perfect for traders using ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts, it highlights critical time periods on the chart, enabling a strategic approach to trading major market trends.
Enhanced Pressure MTF ScreenerEnhanced Pressure Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Screener Indicator
Overview
The Enhanced Pressure MTF Screener is an add-on that extends the capabilities of the Enhanced Buy/Sell Pressure, Volume, and Trend Bar Analysis . It provides a clear and consolidated view of buy/sell pressure across multiple timeframes. This indicator allows traders to determine when different timeframes are synchronized in the same trend direction, which is particularly useful for making high-confidence trading decisions.
Image below: is the Enhanced Buy/Sell Pressure, Volume, and Trend Bar Analysis with the Enhanced Pressure MTF Screener indicator both active together.
Key Features
1.Multi-Timeframe Analysis
The indicator screens various predefined timeframes (from 1 week down to 10 minutes).
It offers a table view that shows buy or sell ratings for each timeframe, making it easy to see which timeframes are aligned.
Traders can choose which timeframes to include based on their trading strategies (e.g., higher timeframes for position trading, lower timeframes for scalping).
2.Pressure and Trend Calculation
Uses Buy and Sell Pressure calculations from the Enhanced Buy/Sell Pressure indicator to determine whether buying or selling is dominant in each timeframe.
By analyzing pressures on multiple timeframes, the indicator gives a comprehensive perspective of the current market sentiment.
The indicator calculates whether a move is strong based on user-defined thresholds, which are displayed in the form of additional signals.
3.Heikin Ashi Option
The Heikin Ashi candle type can be toggled on or off. Using Heikin Ashi helps smooth out market noise and provides a clearer indication of trend direction.
This is particularly helpful for traders who want to filter out market noise and focus on the primary trend.
4.Table Customization
Table Positioning: The table showing timeframe data can be positioned at different locations on the chart—top, middle, or bottom.
Text and Alignment: The alignment and text size of the table can be customized for better visual clarity.
Color Settings: Users can choose specific colors to indicate buying and selling pressure across timeframes, making it easy to interpret.
5.Strong Movement Indicators
The screener provides an additional visual cue (🔥) for timeframes where the movement is deemed strong, based on a user-defined threshold.
This helps highlight timeframes where significant buying or selling pressure is present, which could signal potential trading opportunities.
How the Screener Works
1.Pressure Calculation
For each selected timeframe, the indicator retrieves the Open, High, Low, and Close (OHLC) values.
It calculates buy pressure (the range between high and low when the closing price is higher than the opening) and sell pressure (the range between high and low when the closing price is equal to or lower than the opening).
The screener computes the pressure ratio, which represents the difference between buying and selling pressure, to determine which side is dominant.
2.Trend Rating and Signal Generation
Based on the calculated pressure, the screener determines a trend rating for each timeframe: "Buy," "Sell," or "Neutral." (▲ ,▼ or •)
Additionally, it generates a signal (▲ or ▼) to indicate the current trend direction and whether the move is strong (based on the user-defined threshold).
If the movement is strong, a fire icon (🔥) is added to indicate that there is significant pressure on that timeframe, signaling a higher confidence in the trend.
3.Customizable Strong Move Thresholds
Strong Move Threshold: The screener uses this value to decide whether a trend is significantly strong. A higher value makes it more selective in determining strong moves.
Strong Movement Threshold: Helps determine when an additional strong signal should be displayed, offering further insight into the strength of market movement.
Inputs and Customization
The Enhanced Pressure MTF Screener is highly customizable to fit the needs of individual traders:
General Settings:
Use Heikin Ashi: Toggle this setting to use Heikin Ashi for a smoother trend representation.
Strong Move Threshold: Defines how strong a move should be to be considered significant.
Strong Movement Threshold: Specifies the level of pressure required to highlight a move with the fire icon.
Table Settings:
Position: Choose the vertical position of the screener table (top, middle, or bottom of the chart).
Alignment: Align the table (left, center, or right) to best suit your chart layout.
Text Size: Adjust the text size in the table for better readability.
Table Color Settings:
Users can set different colors to represent buying and selling signals for better visual clarity, particularly when scanning multiple timeframes.
Timeframe Settings:
The screener provides options to include up to ten different timeframes. Traders can select and customize each timeframe to match their strategy.
Examples of available timeframes include 1 Week, 1 Day, 12 Hours, down to 10 Minutes, allowing for both broad and detailed analysis.
Practical Use Case
Identifying Trend Alignment Across Timeframes:
Imagine you are about to take a long trade but want to make sure that the trend direction is aligned across multiple timeframes.
The screener displays "Buy" ratings across the 4H, 1H, 30M, and 10M timeframes, while higher timeframes (like 1W and 1D) also show "Buy" with strong signals (🔥). This indicates that buying pressure is strong across the board, adding confidence to your trade.
Spotting Reversal Opportunities:
If a downtrend is evident across most timeframes but suddenly a higher timeframe, such as 12H, changes to "Buy" while showing a strong move (🔥), this could indicate a potential reversal.
The screener allows you to spot these discrepancies and consider taking early action.
Benefits for Traders
1.Synchronization Across Timeframes:
One of the main strengths of this screener is its ability to show synchronized buy/sell signals across different timeframes. This makes it easy to confirm the strength and consistency of a trend.
For example, if you see that all the selected timeframes display "Buy," this implies that both short-term and long-term traders are favoring the upside, giving additional confidence to go long.
2.Quick and Visual Trend Overview:
The table offers an at-a-glance summary, reducing the time required to manually inspect each timeframe.
This makes it particularly useful for traders who want to make quick decisions, such as day traders or scalpers.
3.Strong Move Indicator:
The use of fire icons (🔥) provides an easy way to identify significant movements. This is particularly helpful for traders looking for breakouts or strong market conditions that could lead to high probability trades.
To put it short or to summarize
The Enhanced Pressure MTF Screener is a powerful add-on for traders looking to understand how buy and sell pressure aligns across multiple timeframes. It offers:
A clear summary of buying or selling pressure across different timeframes.
Heikin Ashi smoothing, providing an option to reduce market noise.
Strong movement signals to highlight significant trading opportunities.
Customizable settings to fit any trading strategy or style.
The screener and the main indicator are best used together, as the screener provides the multi-timeframe overview, while the main indicator provides an in-depth look at each individual bar and trend.

Enhanced Buy/Sell Pressure, Volume, and Trend Bar analysisEnhanced Buy/Sell Pressure, Volume, and Trend Bar Analysis Indicator
Overview
This indicator is designed to help traders identify buy and sell pressure, volume changes, and overall trend direction in the market. It combines multiple concepts like price action, volume, and trend analysis, candlestick anaysis to provide a comprehensive view of market dynamics. The visual elements are intuitive, making it suitable for traders at different levels. This indicator works together with Enhanced Pressure MTF Screener which is a screener based of this indicator to make it easier to see Bullish/Bearish pressures and trend across multiple timeframes.
Image below: is the Enhanced Buy/Sell Pressure, Volume, and Trend Bar Analysis with the Enhanced Pressure MTF Screener indicator both active together.
Key Features
1.Buy/Sell Pressure Identification
Buy Pressure: Calculated based on price movement where the close price is higher than the opening price.
Sell Pressure: Calculated when the closing price is equal to or lower than the opening price.These pressures help you understand whether buyers or sellers are more dominant for each bar.
2.Volume Analysis
Normalized Volume: Volume data is normalized, making it easier to compare volume levels over different periods.
Volume Histogram: The volume is also presented as a histogram for easy visualization, showing whether the current volume is higher or lower compared to the average.
3.Simplified Coloring Option
You can choose to simplify the coloring of bars to reflect the dominant pressure: green for bullish pressure and red for bearish pressure. This makes it visually easier to identify who is in control. When simplified coloring is disabled, the bars' colors will represent the combined effect of buy and sell pressure.
4.Heikin-Ashi Candles for Pressure Calculation
The indicator includes an option to use Heikin-Ashi candles instead of traditional candles to calculate buy and sell pressure. Heikin-Ashi candles are known for smoothing out price action and providing a clearer trend representation.
5.Trend Background Coloring
This feature uses exponential moving averages (EMAs) to determine the trend:
Short-Term EMA vs. Long-Term EMA: When the short-term EMA is above the long-term EMA, the trend is considered bullish, and vice versa.
The background color changes based on the identified trend: green for an uptrend and red for a downtrend. This feature helps visualize the overall market direction at a glance.
6.Signals for Key Price Actions
The indicator plots various symbols to signal important price movements:
Bullish Close (▲): Indicates a strong upward movement where the close price crosses above the open.
Bearish Close (▼): Indicates a downward movement where the close price falls below the open.
Higher High (•): Highlights new highs compared to previous bars, useful for confirming an uptrend.
Lower Low (•): Highlights lower lows compared to previous bars, which can indicate a downtrend or bearish pressure.
Calculations Explained
1.Buy and Sell Pressure Calculation
The buy pressure is determined by the price range (high - low) if the closing price is above the opening price, indicating an increase in value.
The sell pressure is similarly calculated when the closing price is equal to or below the opening price.
The indicator uses the Average True Range (ATR) for normalization. Normalizing helps you compare pressure across different periods, regardless of market volatility.
2.Volume Normalization
Volume Normalization: To make volume comparable across different periods, the indicator normalizes it using the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of volume over a user-defined length.
Volume Histogram: The histogram provides a clear representation of volume changes compared to the average, making it easier to spot unusual activity that may indicate market shifts.
3.Combined Pressure Calculation
The indicator calculates a combined pressure value by subtracting sell pressure from buy pressure.
When combined pressure is positive, buying is dominant, and when negative, selling is dominant. This helps in visually understanding the ongoing momentum.
4.Trend Calculation
The indicator uses two EMAs to determine the trend:
Short-Term EMA (default 14-period) to capture recent price movements.
Long-Term EMA (default 50-period) to provide a broader trend perspective.
By comparing these EMAs on a higher timeframe, the indicator can identify whether the trend is up or down, making it easier for traders to align their trades with the larger market movement.
Inputs and Customization
The indicator provides several options for customization, allowing you to adjust it to your preferences:
SMA Length: Determines the lookback period for moving averages and volume normalization. A longer length provides more smoothing, whereas a shorter length makes the indicator more responsive.
Buy/Sell/Volume Colors: Customize the colors used to represent buying, selling, and volume to suit your preferences.
Heikin Ashi Option: Toggle between using Heikin Ashi or traditional OHLC (Open-High-Low-Close) candles for pressure calculations.
Trend Timeframe and EMA Periods: You can choose different timeframes and EMA periods for trend analysis to suit your trading strategy.
How to Use This Indicator
Identifying Market Momentum: Use the buy/sell pressure columns to see which side (buyers or sellers) is in control. Positive pressure combined with green color indicates strong buying, while red indicates selling.
Volume Confirmation: Check the volume area plot and histogram. High volume coupled with strong pressure is a sign of conviction, meaning the current move has backing from market participants.
Trend Identification: The trend background color helps identify the overall trend direction. Trade in the direction of the trend (e.g., take long positions during a green background).
Signal Indicators: The plotted symbols like "Bullish Close" and "Bearish Close" provide visual signals of key price actions, useful for timing entry or exit points.
Practical use Example
Scenario: The market is consolidating, and you see alternating green and red bars.
Action: Wait for a consistent sequence of green bars (buy pressure) along with a green background (uptrend) to consider going long, although you can go long without having a green background, the background adds confirmation layer.
Scenario: The market has several bearish closes (red ▼ symbols) accompanied by increasing volume.
Action: This could indicate strong selling pressure. If the background also turns red, it might be a good time to exit long positions or consider shorting.
Higher timeframe pressure and volume: Another way to use the indicator is to check buy/sell volume and pressure of the higher timeframe say weekly or daily or any timeframe you consider higher, once you’ve identified or feel confident in which direction the bar is going along with the full picture of trend, you can go to the lower timeframe and wait for it to sync with the higher timeframe to consider a long or a short. It is also easier to see when markets sync up by also applying the Enhanced Pressure MTF Screener which works in companion to this indicator.
Visual Cues and Interpretation
Combined Pressure Plot: The green and red column plot at the bottom of the chart represents the dominance between buying and selling. Tall green bars signify strong buying, while tall red bars indicate selling dominance.
Trend Background: Helps visualize the overall direction without manually drawing trend lines. When the background turns green, it generally indicates that the shorter-term moving average has crossed above the longer-term average—a sign of a bullish trend.
To Summarize shortly
The Enhanced Buy/Sell Pressure, Volume, and Trend Bar Analysis Indicator is an advanced but simple tool designed to help traders visually understand market dynamics. It combines different aspects of market analysis of candle pressure from buyers and sellers, volume confirmation, and trend identification into a single view, which can assist both new and experienced traders in making informed trading decisions.

ICT Setup 02 [TradingFinder] Breaker Blocks + Reversal Candles🔵 Introduction
The "Breaker Block" concept, widely utilized in ICT (Inner Circle Trader) technical analysis, is a crucial tool for identifying reversal points and significant market shifts. Originating from the "Order Block" concept, Breaker Blocks help traders pinpoint support and resistance levels. These blocks are essential for understanding market trends and recognizing optimal entry and exit points.
A Breaker Block is essentially a failed Order Block that changes its role when price action breaks through it. When an Order Block fails to hold as a support or resistance level, it reverses its function, becoming a Breaker Block.
There are two primary types : Bullish Breaker Blocks and Bearish Breaker Blocks. These Breaker Blocks align with the prevailing market trend and indicate potential entry points after a liquidity sweep or a shift in market structure.
Understanding and applying the Breaker Block strategy enables traders to capitalize on the behavior of institutional investors, enhancing their trading outcomes.

🔵 How to Use
The ICT Setup 02 indicator designed to automate the identification of Bullish and Bearish Breaker Blocks. This tool enables traders to easily spot these blocks on a chart and utilize them for entering or exiting trades. Below is a breakdown of how to use this indicator in both bullish and bearish setups.
🟣 Bullish Breaker Block Setup
A Bullish Breaker Block setup is identified in an uptrend, where it serves as a potential entry point. This setup occurs when a Bearish Order Block fails and the price moves above the high of that Order Block. In this scenario, the previously bearish Order Block turns into a Bullish Breaker Block, which now acts as a support level for the price.
To trade a Bullish Breaker Block, wait for the price to retest this newly formed support level. Confirmation of the uptrend can be achieved by analyzing lower time frames for further market structure shifts or other bullish indicators.
A successful retest of the Bullish Breaker Block provides a high-probability entry point for a long trade, as it signals institutional support. Traders often place their stop-loss below the low of the Breaker Block zone to minimize risk.
🟣 Bearish Breaker Block Setup
A Bearish Breaker Block setup, conversely, is used in a downtrend to identify potential sell opportunities. This setup forms when a Bullish Order Block fails, and the price moves below the low of that Order Block.
Once this Order Block is broken, it reverses its role and becomes a Bearish Breaker Block, providing resistance to the price as it pushes downward. For a Bearish Breaker Block trade, wait for the price to retest this resistance level.
A confirmation of the downtrend, such as a market structure shift on a lower time frame or additional bearish signals, strengthens the setup. The Bearish Breaker Block retest provides an opportunity to enter a short position, with a stop-loss placed just above the high of the Breaker Block zone.
🔵 Settings
Pivot Period : This setting controls the look-back period used to identify pivot points that contribute to the detection of Order Blocks. A higher period captures longer-term pivots, while a lower period focuses on more recent price action. Adjusting this parameter allows traders to fine-tune the indicator to match their trading time frame.
Breaker Block Validity Period : This setting defines how long a Breaker Block remains valid based on the number of bars elapsed since its formation. Increasing the validity period keeps Breaker Blocks active for a longer duration, which can be useful for higher time frame analysis.
Mitigation Level BB : This option lets traders choose the level of the Order Block at which the price is expected to react. Options like "Proximal," "50% OB," and "Distal" adjust the zone where a reaction may occur, offering flexibility in setting up the entry and stop-loss levels.
Breaker Block Refinement : The refinement option refines the Breaker Block zone to display a more precise range for aggressive or defensive trading approaches. The "Aggressive" mode provides a tighter range for risk-tolerant traders, while the "Defensive" mode expands the zone for those with a more conservative approach.
🔵 Conclusion
The Breaker Block indicator provides traders with a sophisticated tool for identifying key reversal zones in the market. By leveraging Breaker Blocks, traders can gain insights into institutional order flow and predict critical support and resistance levels.
Using Breaker Blocks in conjunction with other ICT concepts, like Fair Value Gaps or liquidity sweeps, enhances the reliability of trading signals. This indicator empowers traders to make informed decisions, aligning their trades with institutional moves in the market.
As with any trading strategy, it is crucial to incorporate proper risk management, using stop-losses and position sizing to minimize potential losses. The Breaker Block strategy, when applied with discipline and thorough analysis, serves as a powerful addition to any trader’s toolkit.
Sequence Waves [OmegaTools]the sequence waves indicator, developed by omegatools, is a multi-functional tool designed to detect trends, sequences, and potential reversal signals based on price movements and volume. this indicator has two main modes, "trend" and "sequence," which determine how the indicator calculates directional changes. additional enhancements in this version include reversal signals, allowing users to identify potential long and short opportunities with specific entry cues.
input parameters
mode (mode): chooses the calculation basis for directional movement.
- "trend": uses a midline calculated from the highest high and lowest low over the "trend mode length" period to assess if the price is in an upward or downward trend.
- "sequence": compares the current price to the closing price of the previous "sequence mode length" period to detect shifts in direction.
counter mode (modec): sets whether the counter increments by a fixed amount (1 or -1) or the volume of the bar, impacting the indicator’s sensitivity.
- "fixed": increments or decrements the counter by 1.
- "volume": increments or decrements based on the period’s volume, making the indicator more responsive to high-volume periods.
percentile length (lntp): defines the lookback period for calculating overbought and oversold thresholds using a percentile method. shorter lengths make ob/os levels more reactive.
sensitivity (sens): controls the percentile-based ob/os thresholds, ranging from 10 to 100. higher values narrow ob/os zones, while lower values widen them, impacting signal frequency.
trend mode length (lnt1): sets the period length for midline calculation in trend mode, defaulting to 21. longer periods smooth the midline for detecting major trends.
sequence mode length (lnt2): sets the lookback period in sequence mode, with a default of 4. shorter lengths capture more frequent directional changes, while longer lengths smooth signals.
visual colors:
- up color (upc): sets the color for upward movements.
- down color (dnc): sets the color for downward movements.
calculation logic
midline calculation: in trend mode, a midline is derived from the average of the highest high and lowest low over the "trend mode length" period, acting as a reference to detect upward or downward movements.
counter calculation:
- in trend mode, if the close price is above the midline, the counter increases (or volume if volume mode is selected). it decreases when the price is below.
- in sequence mode, the counter increases if the close is above the closing price from "sequence mode length" periods ago and decreases if below.
the counter resets to zero on direction changes, creating clear directional transitions.
overbought/oversold percentiles: separate arrays track the counter’s values each time the direction changes, creating historical up and down values. ob and os thresholds are dynamically determined based on these arrays, with sizes limited by the percentile length and sensitivity inputs.
reversal signals: two new variables, "long" and "short," detect potential reversal points when the counter crosses specific thresholds:
- long: a long signal is generated when the counter switches to positive and exceeds the down percentile.
- short: a short signal is triggered when the counter switches to negative and exceeds the up percentile.
visual and display elements
counter plot: plots the counter value on the chart with color-coded columns, making it easy to spot directional momentum.
up and down percentiles: displays overbought (up percentile) and oversold (down percentile) thresholds to identify potential reversal zones.
regime background: the background color changes based on market regime:
- bullish (up percentile > down percentile): greenish background.
- bearish (down percentile > up percentile): reddish background.
- neutral (both percentiles equal): grayish background.
reversal signals: plotted as small triangles on the chart for visual confirmation of potential long (triangle up) and short (triangle down) reversal signals.
obs background: changes color when the counter exceeds ob or os thresholds, creating a visual cue for extreme market conditions:
- overbought: background changes to a faint down color.
- oversold: background changes to a faint up color.
status table: displayed on the right side of the chart, providing real-time status information:
- status: shows "overbought," "oversold," "long," "short," or "none" based on the current counter position.
- regime: indicates whether the market is in a "bullish," "bearish," or "neutral" state based on the percentile comparison.
- percentile up/down: displays the current up and down percentiles for quick reference.
how to use the indicator
trend following: in trend mode, use the midline-based counter to gauge if the market is in an uptrend (positive counter) or downtrend (negative counter).
reversal detection: the ob/os thresholds assist in identifying potential reversal points. when the counter exceeds the up percentile, it may indicate an overbought state, suggesting a bearish reversal. similarly, dropping below the down percentile may indicate an oversold state, suggesting a bullish reversal.
entry signals: use the long and short reversal signals for potential entry points, particularly in trending or range-bound markets. these signals are indicated by up and down triangles.
sequence trading: in sequence mode, the indicator tracks shorter-term directional shifts, making it suitable for detecting smaller momentum patterns based on recent price comparisons.
volume sensitivity: selecting volume mode enhances sensitivity to high-volume moves, allowing it to detect stronger market activity in both trend and sequence modes.
the sequence waves indicator is suited to both short-term and long-term traders. it allows for detailed trend analysis, reversal detection, and dynamic ob/os signals. the inclusion of visual reversal cues makes it a flexible tool adaptable to a variety of trading strategies.
Arshtiq - Multi-Timeframe Trend StrategyMulti-Timeframe Setup:
The script uses two distinct timeframes: a higher (daily) timeframe for identifying the trend and a lower (hourly) timeframe for making trades. This combination allows the script to follow the larger trend while timing entries and exits with more precision on a shorter timeframe.
Moving Averages Calculation:
higher_ma: The 20-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) calculated based on the daily timeframe. This average gives a sense of the larger trend direction.
lower_ma: The 20-period SMA calculated on the hourly (current) timeframe, providing a dynamic level for detecting entry and exit points within the broader trend.
Trend Identification:
Bullish Trend: The script determines that a bullish trend is present if the current price is above the daily moving average (higher_ma).
Bearish Trend: Similarly, a bearish trend is identified when the current price is below this daily moving average.
Trade Signals:
Buy Signal: A buy signal is generated when the price on the hourly chart crosses above the hourly 20-period MA, but only if the higher (daily) timeframe trend is bullish. This ensures that buy trades align with the larger upward trend.
Sell Signal: A sell signal is generated when the price on the hourly chart crosses below the hourly 20-period MA, but only if the daily trend is bearish. This ensures that sell trades are consistent with the broader downtrend.
Plotting and Visual Cues:
Higher Timeframe MA: The daily 20-period moving average is plotted in red to help visualize the long-term trend.
Buy and Sell Signals: Buy signals appear as green labels below the price bars with the text "BUY," while sell signals appear as red labels above the bars with the text "SELL."
Background Coloring: The background changes color based on the identified trend for easier trend recognition:
Green (with transparency) when the daily trend is bullish.
Red (with transparency) when the daily trend is bearish.
