RSI Candles with EMA byAuncleJoeThe Relative Strength Index (RSI) is one of the most widely used momentum indicators in trading. It helps traders assess whether an asset is overbought or oversold by measuring the speed and magnitude of recent price changes. Traditionally, RSI is displayed as a single line oscillating between 0 and 100, but this representation can sometimes make it difficult to spot trends, reversals, and momentum shifts effectively.
To enhance RSI visualization and usability, the RSI Candles with EMA indicator transforms the RSI values into candlestick charts, providing a more intuitive and dynamic way to analyze momentum. Unlike the traditional RSI line, this approach allows traders to observe RSI trends just as they would analyze price charts, making it easier to detect changes in momentum and trend strength.
Each RSI candle represents a specific period’s momentum activity. Green candles indicate that the RSI closed higher than it opened, signaling bullish momentum, while red candles suggest that the RSI closed lower than it opened, indicating bearish sentiment. This candlestick-style visualization helps traders spot RSI trends, breakouts, and reversals more effectively than a simple line chart.
To further refine momentum analysis, this indicator also includes an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of RSI. The EMA smooths RSI fluctuations and provides a clearer trend direction. When RSI candles remain above the EMA, it suggests strong buying momentum, whereas RSI candles falling below the EMA indicate increasing selling pressure. This combination of RSI candlesticks and an EMA line allows traders to better identify shifts in market sentiment and potential trend reversals.
Additionally, the indicator includes customizable overbought and oversold levels (defaulted at 70 and 30, respectively). These levels help traders recognize when an asset might be overextended in either direction, potentially signaling an upcoming reversal. When RSI candles approach or cross these thresholds, traders can anticipate possible changes in market direction.
This indicator is particularly useful for a wide range of traders. Scalpers and day traders can leverage it to quickly identify short-term momentum shifts, while swing traders can use it to detect potential reversals in multi-day trends. Trend-following traders can confirm bullish or bearish trends based on RSI’s position relative to its EMA, and mean reversion traders can use it to spot extreme conditions where price action might snap back.
By combining RSI candlesticks with an EMA filter, this indicator provides a more dynamic and visually intuitive approach to momentum trading. It offers clearer trend signals, better reversal detection, and enhanced decision-making, making it an essential tool for traders who rely on RSI-based strategies.

Inside Bar with High/LowInside Bar with High/Low
The indicator plots horizontal mid line between two Inside bars with High / Low with Multi Time Frame Selection by the user which can be traded in trending markets in the direction of the trend, when traded this way they are typically referred to as a ‘Breakout Play’ or an inside bar ‘Price Action Breakout Pattern’ They can also be traded counter-trend, typically from ‘Key Chart Levels’ , when traded this way they are often referred to as ‘Inside Bar Reversals’ .
The classic entry for an inside bar signal is to place a buy stop or sell stop at the high or low of the mother bar, and then when price breakouts above or below the mother bar, your entry order is filled with best time frame preferably more than 1 hour.
Stop loss placement is typically at the opposite end of the mother bar, or it can be placed near the mother bar halfway point (50% level), typically if the mother bar is larger than average.
It’s worth noting that these are the ‘classic’ or standard entry and stop loss placements for an inside bar setup is a useful tool for traders looking to identify potential reversals using the 20/50 EMA and candlestick patterns. However, like any trading tool, it should be used in conjunction with other indicators and analysis techniques for better accuracy
And also this tool is especially useful for day traders who want to track price action during specific times of the day and make informed decisions based on market behavior with more than 60 minutes period
As always, back testing and customization are recommended to optimize performance across different market conditions
In the end, experienced traders may decide on other entries or stop loss placements as they see fit.

SMIIOLThis indicator generates long signals.
The operation of the indicator is as follows;
First, true strength index is calculated with closing prices. We call this the "ergodic" curve.
Then the average of the ergodic (ema) is calculated to obtain the "signal" curve.
To calculate the "oscillator", the signal is subtracted from ergodic (oscillator = ergodic - signal).
The last variable to be used in the calculation is the average volume, calculated with sma.
Calculation for long signal;
- If the ergodic curve cross up the lower band and,
- If the hma slope is positive,
If all the above conditions are fullfilled, the long input signal is issued with "Buy" label.

Overbought/Oversold Conditions:
• Values above +50 suggest overbought conditions (potential reversal or pullback)
• Values below -50 suggest oversold conditions (potential reversal or bounce)
Trading Strategies
Trend Following:
• Enter long positions when the signal line turns teal and shows an uptrend
• Enter short positions when the signal line turns magenta and shows a downtrend
• Use the slow signal line (area fill) as confirmation of the underlying trend
Counter-Trend Trading:
• Look for divergences between price and the indicator
• Consider profit-taking when the indicator reaches overbought/oversold areas
• Wait for trend shift signals before entering counter-trend positions
Multiple Timeframe Analysis:
• Use the indicator across different timeframes for confirmation
• Higher timeframe signals carry more weight than lower timeframe signals
Best Practices
• Experiment with different kernel types for various market conditions
• Gaussian kernels often work well in ranging markets
• Exponential kernels can provide earlier signals in trending markets
• Combine with volume analysis for higher probability trades
• Use appropriate stop-loss levels as the indicator does not guarantee price movements

Dynamic CAGR LineIndicator: Dynamic CAGR Line
Overview
This Pine Script (version 6) creates a custom indicator called "Dynamic CAGR Moving Line," designed to calculate and display the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) in percentage terms for a financial instrument, such as a stock or cryptocurrency, based on a user-defined lookback period (default: 5 years). Unlike traditional overlays that plot directly on the price chart, this indicator appears in a separate pane below the chart, providing a clear visual of how the CAGR evolves over time with each new candle.
Purpose
The indicator helps traders and investors analyze the annualized growth rate of an asset’s price over a specified historical period. By plotting the CAGR as a percentage in a separate pane, users can easily track how the growth rate changes as new price data is added, offering insights into long-term performance trends without cluttering the price chart.
How It Works
User Input:
The script begins with an input parameter, lookback_years, allowing users to define the number of years (e.g., 5) to look back for the CAGR calculation. This is a floating-point value with a minimum of 1 and a step of 0.5, adjustable via the indicator’s settings in TradingView.
Timeframe Conversion:
Assuming a daily chart, the script converts the lookback years into a number of bars using bars_per_year = 252 (the average number of trading days in a year). The total lookback period in bars is calculated as lookback_bars = math.round(lookback_years * bars_per_year). For example, 5 years equals approximately 1260 bars.
Price Data:
For each candle, the start_price is fetched from the closing price lookback_bars ago (e.g., the close price from 5 years prior), using close .
The end_price is the current candle’s closing price, accessed via close.
CAGR Calculation:
The total return is computed as (end_price - start_price) / start_price, measuring the percentage change from the start price to the current price.
To avoid division-by-zero errors, a conditional check ensures start_price != 0; if it is, the return defaults to 0.
The CAGR is then calculated using the formula: math.pow(1 + total_return, 1 / lookback_years) - 1, which annualizes the total return over the lookback period.
The result is converted to a percentage by multiplying by 100 (cagr_percent = cagr * 100).
Plotting:
The CAGR percentage is plotted as a blue line in a separate pane using plot(). The line only appears after enough data exists (bar_index >= lookback_bars), otherwise it plots na (not available).
A label is added for each candle, displaying the current CAGR percentage (e.g., "CAGR: 5.23%") near the plotted value, styled with a blue background and white text.
Usage
Chart Setup: Apply the indicator to a daily chart with sufficient historical data (e.g., more than 5 years for the default setting). It’s designed for daily timeframes but can be adapted for others by adjusting bars_per_year (e.g., 52 for weekly).
Interpretation: A positive CAGR (e.g., 5%) indicates annualized growth, while a negative value (e.g., -2%) shows an annualized decline. A flat line at 0% suggests no net change over the lookback period.
Customization: Adjust lookback_years in the settings to analyze different periods (e.g., 3 or 10 years).
Notes
Ensure your chart has enough data to cover the lookback period, or the line won’t appear until sufficient bars are available.
For debugging, you can temporarily plot start_price and end_price on the main chart to verify the calculation inputs.

HH-HL-HH and LL-LH-LL Screener with AlertsAh, it seems you're referring to "Higher Low Higher High" in the context of **trading signals**! In trading, especially in technical analysis, these terms could be describing patterns or movements of price action that traders use to make decisions.
Let’s break down the terms you mentioned:
### 1. **Higher Low (HL)**:
- A **Higher Low** occurs when the price forms a low point that is higher than the previous low. It indicates upward momentum and suggests that the market may be in an uptrend or reversing to an uptrend.
For example:
- The price hits a low at $50, then rises to $60, then drops to $55. The **$55 low** is higher than the previous $50 low, indicating a potential uptrend.
### 2. **Higher High (HH)**:
- A **Higher High** happens when the price forms a high that is higher than the previous high. This is a strong bullish signal and is typical in an uptrend.
For example:
- The price reaches a peak of $70, drops to $60, then rises to $75. The **$75 high** is higher than the previous $70 high, indicating upward momentum.
### The Sequence: **Higher Low, Higher High (HL-HH)**
- This sequence (HL-HH) suggests that the market is in a **bullish trend**, with each subsequent low being higher than the previous low and each high being higher than the previous high. It’s a confirmation that the price is generally trending upwards, and traders might look for **buying opportunities**.
### 3. **Lower Low (LL)**:
- A **Lower Low** is when the price forms a low that is lower than the previous low, which is typically a sign of downward momentum. Traders may interpret this as a bearish signal.
For example:
- If the price drops from $60 to $55, then falls to $50, the **$50 low** is lower than the previous $55 low, indicating a potential downtrend.
### 4. **Lower High (LH)**:
- A **Lower High** occurs when the price forms a high that is lower than the previous high. This can indicate a weakening uptrend or the start of a downtrend.
For example:
- The price peaks at $70, then drops to $60, and later rises to $65. The **$65 high** is lower than the previous $70 high, suggesting bearish pressure.
### The Sequence: **Lower Low, Lower High (LL-LH)**
- The **LL-LH** pattern suggests a **bearish trend**, where the price forms lower lows and lower highs. This could signal to traders that the price is in a downward movement, and they might look for **selling opportunities**.
---
### Using This in Trading:
Traders often look for **higher highs** and **higher lows** in an uptrend (HL-HH), or **lower lows** and **lower highs** in a downtrend (LL-LH) to gauge market direction and make decisions.
- **Bullish Sign**: Higher Low, Higher High (HL-HH) = Look for buying signals or long positions.
- **Bearish Sign**: Lower Low, Lower High (LL-LH) = Look for selling signals or short positions.

Strong Levels (with Proximity Alerts)█ OVERVIEW
The "Strong Levels (with Proximity Alerts)" indicator offers a fresh approach to identifying support and resistance levels, inspired by the RexDog Trading System (RDTS). It pinpoints significant price reversals using a unique filtering method that reduces noise and enhances reliability. Paired with customizable ATR-based proximity alerts, this indicator empowers traders to track critical price zones with precision.
█ FEATURES
- Rooted in RDTS :
Inspired by the RexDog Trading System (RDTS), it highlights major pivot points where price executed sharp turnarounds, ensuring levels carry true market weight.
- Second-Highest/Lowest Open/Close Method :
Resistance levels use the *second-highest open/close* near pivot highs, while support levels use the *second-lowest open/close* near pivot lows—skipping extreme wicks for cleaner, more dependable lines.
- ATR-Driven Proximity Alerts :
Customizable proximity thresholds, calculated using the Average True Range (ATR), warn traders when price approaches key levels—a standout feature not found in most support/resistance indicators.
- Flexible Customization :
- Magnitude : Tweak pivot sensitivity (default: 10).
- Line Colors : Set resistance (red by default), support (green), and proximity (yellow) lines.
- Line Options : Adjust line origins, transparency for breached levels, and the maximum number of levels shown.
- ATR Settings : Fine-tune proximity sensitivity with ATR length and multiplier.
█ HOW TO USE
1. Add to Chart :
Find "Strong Levels (with Proximity Alerts)" in TradingView’s indicator library and apply it.
2. Read the Lines :
- Red Lines : Resistance, derived from the second-highest open/close near pivot highs.
- Green Lines : Support, based on the second-lowest open/close near pivot lows.
- Yellow Dashed Lines : Proximity thresholds (optional), signaling when price nears a level.
3. Customize :
- Raise `Magnitude` for stronger levels or lower it for more detail.
- Adjust colors, transparency, and max levels to fit your preferences.
- Toggle proximity thresholds on/off based on your trading style.
- Enabling *Plot Line from Actual Pivot Bar* offers a cleaner chart but may mislead as lines plot into the past.
4. Set Alerts :
- Open TradingView’s alert menu (the three dots ... dropdown menu next in indicator list has an option "Add alert on ...") and choose "Approaching Level" or "Level Touched.".
- Don't forget to choose the right Trigger condition, which by default is "Only Once". I usually set it to "Once Per Bar".
- Tailor alert conditions to your needs.
█ LIMITATIONS
- Past-Based Levels :
- Relying on historical pivots, it may not always forecast future moves, especially in rapid markets.
- The 'Plot Line from Actual Pivot Bar' option while visually appealing can imply historical significance that didn’t exist at the time. Be mindful of that.
- Volatility Sensitivity :
High volatility widens ATR-based thresholds, which might trigger alerts too soon.
- Display Management :
A cap on max levels avoids clutter, but tweaking `Max Levels` may be needed across timeframes.
█ ACCOMPANYING CHART
The chart showcases the indicator’s unique edge:
- A pivot high and low are flagged, with nearby bars highlighted.
- Resistance is plotted at the *second-highest open/close* around the pivot high, bypassing the highest wick.
- Support is set at the *second-lowest open/close* near the pivot low, ignoring the deepest wick.
- Yellow dashed proximity lines illustrate how the indicator warns traders as price nears these zones.
- Annotations clarify how skipping extreme wicks creates cleaner, more actionable levels.
█ HOW TO USE
1. Add to Chart :
Locate "Strong Levels (with Proximity Alerts)" in TradingView’s indicator library and apply it to your chart.
2. Read the Lines :
- Red Lines**: Resistance levels, calculated from the second-highest open/close near pivot highs.
- Green Lines : Support levels, derived from the second-lowest open/close near pivot lows.
- Yellow Dashed Lines : Optional proximity thresholds, alerting you when price nears a level.
3. Customize :
- Increase `Magnitude` for stronger, less frequent levels or decrease it for more granularity.
- Modify colors, transparency, or the maximum number of levels to suit your style.
- Enable or disable proximity thresholds as needed.
4. Set Alerts :
- Access TradingView’s alert menu and select "Approaching Level" or "Level Touched."
- Adjust conditions to match your trading preferences.
5. My Personal Approach :
I prefer using this indicator on higher timeframes, like hourly or daily charts. I adjust my `Magnitude`, so it doesn't trigger too often and set my alerts to trigger "Once Per Bar". When price nears a level, I get an alert and I anticipate a reaction but avoid placing limit orders blindly. Instead, I switch to smaller timeframes and combine it with other tools for confirmation before making a trade. This saves me a lot of screen time, and allows me to focus when it matters.
Triple SRSI-MFI Ⅲ - Multi TimeframeTriple SRSI-MFI Ⅲ - Multi Timeframe Indicator
Description
The Triple SRSI-MFI Ⅲ - Multi Timeframe indicator is a powerful tool designed to combine Stochastic RSI (SRSI) and Money Flow Index (MFI) across multiple timeframes (higher, current, and lower). It provides a comprehensive view of market momentum and potential overbought/oversold conditions by calculating a weighted hybrid of SRSI-MFI values from three different timeframes. The indicator also integrates Bollinger Bands to help identify trend direction and volatility.
This indicator is ideal for traders who want to analyze market conditions across multiple timeframes without switching charts. It automatically adjusts settings based on the current timeframe and includes a dynamic weighting system optimized for Bitcoin volatility. Additionally, a real-time information panel displays the market state (buy/sell) and signal strength.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Combines SRSI-MFI from higher, current, and lower timeframes for a holistic view.
Dynamic Weighting: Automatically adjusts weights for each timeframe based on Bitcoin volatility, with an option for manual customization.
Bollinger Bands Integration: Visualizes trend direction and volatility using Bollinger Bands, with customizable source selection.
Real-Time Info Panel: Displays market state (buy/sell) and signal strength (%) in the top-right corner of the chart.
Customizable Settings: Allows users to tweak MFI source, Bollinger Bands parameters, and visibility of individual components.
How to Use
Add to Chart: Add the "Triple SRSI-MFI Ⅲ - Multi Timeframe" indicator to your chart.
Interpret Signals:
Market State (Buy/Sell): Shown in the info panel. "Buy" when the average SRSI-MFI is above the Bollinger Bands basis, "Sell" when below.
Strength (%): The relative position of the average SRSI-MFI within the Bollinger Bands, scaled from 0% to 100%.
Overbought/Oversold Levels: The indicator plots horizontal lines at 80 (overbought) and 20 (oversold). Use these as potential reversal zones.
Combine with Price Action: Use the indicator in conjunction with price action or other tools for better decision-making.
Adjust Settings: Customize the settings (e.g., Bollinger Bands length, weights, visibility) to match your trading style.
Settings
MFI Source: Select the source for MFI calculation (default: "hlc3"). Options include "close", "open", "high", "low", "hl2", "hlc3", "ohlc4".
Bollinger Bands:
Length: Period for Bollinger Bands calculation (default: 20).
Multiplier: Standard deviation multiplier for the bands (default: 2.0).
Source: Choose which SRSI-MFI value to use for Bollinger Bands ("averageHybrid", "hybrid_higher", "hybrid_current", "hybrid_lower"; default: "hybrid_higher").
Weights:
Auto Weight Enabled: Enable/disable automatic weights based on Bitcoin volatility (default: true).
Higher/Current/Lower Weights: Manually set weights for each timeframe if auto-weight is disabled (defaults: 1.5, 1.0, 0.5).
Indicator On/Off:
Toggle visibility for Higher SRSI-MFI, Current SRSI-MFI, Lower SRSI-MFI, Average SRSI-MFI, and Bollinger Bands.
How It Works
SRSI-MFI Calculation:
Stochastic RSI (SRSI) and Money Flow Index (MFI) are calculated for three timeframes: higher, current, and lower.
The hybrid value (SRSI * (MFI / 100)) is computed for each timeframe.
Weighted Average:
The hybrid values are combined into a weighted average (averageHybrid) using dynamic or manual weights.
Bollinger Bands:
Bollinger Bands are applied to the selected source (e.g., hybrid_higher) to identify trend direction and volatility.
Relative Position:
The position of averageHybrid within the Bollinger Bands is scaled to a percentage (0% to 100%) for strength assessment.
Visualization:
Plots individual SRSI-MFI lines, Bollinger Bands, and overbought/oversold levels.
A real-time info panel provides market state and signal strength.
Notes
This indicator is best used as part of a broader trading strategy. It is not a standalone signal generator and should be combined with other forms of analysis.
The automatic weights are optimized for Bitcoin (BTC) volatility. For other assets, you may need to adjust the weights manually.
The indicator may require sufficient historical data to calculate higher and lower timeframe values accurately.
Smart Liquidity Wave [The_lurker]"Smart Liquidity Wave" هو مؤشر تحليلي متطور يهدف لتحديد نقاط الدخول والخروج المثلى بناءً على تحليل السيولة، قوة الاتجاه، وإشارات السوق المفلترة. يتميز المؤشر بقدرته على تصنيف الأدوات المالية إلى أربع فئات سيولة (ضعيفة، متوسطة، عالية، عالية جدًا)، مع تطبيق شروط مخصصة لكل فئة تعتمد على تحليل الموجات السعرية، الفلاتر المتعددة، ومؤشر ADX.
فكرة المؤشر
الفكرة الأساسية هي الجمع بين قياس السيولة اليومية الثابتة وتحليل ديناميكي للسعر باستخدام فلاتر متقدمة لتوليد إشارات دقيقة. المؤشر يركز على تصفية الضوضاء في السوق من خلال طبقات متعددة من التحليل، مما يجعله أداة ذكية تتكيف مع الأدوات المالية المختلفة بناءً على مستوى سيولتها.
طريقة عمل المؤشر
1- قياس السيولة:
يتم حساب السيولة باستخدام متوسط حجم التداول على مدى 14 يومًا مضروبًا في سعر الإغلاق، ويتم ذلك دائمًا على الإطار الزمني اليومي لضمان ثبات القيمة بغض النظر عن الإطار الزمني المستخدم في الرسم البياني.
يتم تصنيف السيولة إلى:
ضعيفة: أقل من 5 ملايين (قابل للتعديل).
متوسطة: من 5 إلى 20 مليون.
عالية: من 20 إلى 50 مليون.
عالية جدًا: أكثر من 50 مليون.
هذا الثبات في القياس يضمن أن تصنيف السيولة لا يتغير مع تغير الإطار الزمني، مما يوفر أساسًا موثوقًا للإشارات.
2- تحليل الموجات السعرية:
يعتمد المؤشر على تحليل الموجات باستخدام متوسطات متحركة متعددة الأنواع (مثل SMA، EMA، WMA، HMA، وغيرها) يمكن للمستخدم اختيارها وتخصيص فتراتها ، يتم دمج هذا التحليل مع مؤشرات إضافية مثل RSI (مؤشر القوة النسبية) وMFI (مؤشر تدفق الأموال) بوزن محدد (40% للموجات، 30% لكل من RSI وMFI) للحصول على تقييم شامل للاتجاه.
3- الفلاتر وطريقة عملها:
المؤشر يستخدم نظام فلاتر متعدد الطبقات لتصفية الإشارات وتقليل الضوضاء، وهي من أبرز الجوانب المخفية التي تعزز دقته:
الفلتر الرئيسي (Main Filter):
يعمل على تنعيم التغيرات السعرية السريعة باستخدام معادلة رياضية تعتمد على تحليل الإشارات (Signal Processing).
يتم تطبيقه على السعر لاستخراج الاتجاهات الأساسية بعيدًا عن التقلبات العشوائية، مع فترة زمنية قابلة للتعديل (افتراضي: 30).
يستخدم تقنية مشابهة للفلاتر عالية التردد (High-Pass Filter) للتركيز على الحركات الكبيرة.
الفلتر الفرعي (Sub Filter):
يعمل كطبقة ثانية للتصفية، مع فترة أقصر (افتراضي: 12)، لضبط الإشارات بدقة أكبر.
يستخدم معادلات تعتمد على الترددات المنخفضة للتأكد من أن الإشارات الناتجة تعكس تغيرات حقيقية وليست مجرد ضوضاء.
إشارة الزناد (Signal Trigger):
يتم تطبيق متوسط متحرك على نتائج الفلتر الرئيسي لتوليد خط إشارة (Signal Line) يُقارن مع عتبات محددة للدخول والخروج.
يمكن تعديل فترة الزناد (افتراضي: 3 للدخول، 5 للخروج) لتسريع أو تبطيء الإشارات.
الفلتر المربع (Square Filter):
خاصية مخفية تُفعّل افتراضيًا تعزز دقة الفلاتر عن طريق تضييق نطاق التذبذبات المسموح بها، مما يقلل من الإشارات العشوائية في الأسواق المتقلبة.
4- تصفية الإشارات باستخدام ADX:
يتم استخدام مؤشر ADX كفلتر نهائي للتأكد من قوة الاتجاه قبل إصدار الإشارة:
ضعيفة ومتوسطة: دخول عندما يكون ADX فوق 40، خروج فوق 50.
عالية: دخول فوق 40، خروج فوق 55.
عالية جدًا: دخول فوق 35، خروج فوق 38.
هذه العتبات قابلة للتعديل، مما يسمح بتكييف المؤشر مع استراتيجيات مختلفة.
5- توليد الإشارات:
الدخول: يتم إصدار إشارة شراء عندما تنخفض خطوط الإشارة إلى ما دون عتبة محددة (مثل -9) مع تحقق شروط الفلاتر، السيولة، وADX.
الخروج: يتم إصدار إشارة بيع عندما ترتفع الخطوط فوق عتبة (مثل 109 أو 106 حسب الفئة) مع تحقق الشروط الأخرى.
تُعرض الإشارات بألوان مميزة (أزرق للدخول، برتقالي للضعيفة والمتوسطة، أحمر للعالية والعالية جدًا) وبثلاثة أحجام (صغير، متوسط، كبير).
6- عرض النتائج:
يظهر مستوى السيولة الحالي في جدول في أعلى يمين الرسم البياني، مما يتيح للمستخدم معرفة فئة الأصل بسهولة.
7- دعم التنبيهات:
تنبيهات فورية لكل فئة سيولة، مما يسهل التداول الآلي أو اليدوي.
%%%%% الجوانب المخفية في الكود %%%%%
معادلات الفلاتر المتقدمة: يستخدم المؤشر معادلات رياضية معقدة مستوحاة من معالجة الإشارات لتنعيم البيانات واستخراج الاتجاهات، مما يجعله أكثر دقة من المؤشرات التقليدية.
التكيف التلقائي: النظام يضبط نفسه داخليًا بناءً على التغيرات في السعر والحجم، مع عوامل تصحيح مخفية (مثل معامل التنعيم في الفلاتر) للحفاظ على الاستقرار.
التوزيع الموزون: الدمج بين الموجات، RSI، وMFI يتم بأوزان محددة (40%، 30%، 30%) لضمان توازن التحليل، وهي تفاصيل غير ظاهرة مباشرة للمستخدم لكنها تؤثر على النتائج.
الفلتر المربع: خيار مخفي يتم تفعيله افتراضيًا لتضييق نطاق الإشارات، مما يقلل من التشتت في الأسواق ذات التقلبات العالية.
مميزات المؤشر
1- فلاتر متعددة الطبقات: تضمن تصفية الضوضاء وإنتاج إشارات موثوقة فقط.
2- ثبات السيولة: قياس السيولة اليومي يجعل التصنيف متسقًا عبر الإطارات الزمنية.
3- تخصيص شامل: يمكن تعديل حدود السيولة، عتبات ADX، فترات الفلاتر، وأنواع المتوسطات المتحركة.
4- إشارات مرئية واضحة: تصميم بصري يسهل التفسير مع تنبيهات فورية.
5- تقليل الإشارات الخاطئة: الجمع بين الفلاتر وADX يعزز الدقة ويقلل من التشتت.

#### **What is the Smart Liquidity Wave Indicator?**
"Smart Liquidity Wave" is an advanced analytical indicator designed to identify optimal entry and exit points based on liquidity analysis, trend strength, and filtered market signals. It stands out with its ability to categorize financial instruments into four liquidity levels (Weak, Medium, High, Very High), applying customized conditions for each category based on price wave analysis, multi-layered filters, and the ADX (Average Directional Index).
#### **Concept of the Indicator**
The core idea is to combine a stable daily liquidity measurement with dynamic price analysis using sophisticated filters to generate precise signals. The indicator focuses on eliminating market noise through multiple analytical layers, making it an intelligent tool that adapts to various financial instruments based on their liquidity levels.
#### **How the Indicator Works**
1. **Liquidity Measurement:**
- Liquidity is calculated using the 14-day average trading volume multiplied by the closing price, always based on the daily timeframe to ensure value consistency regardless of the chart’s timeframe.
- Liquidity is classified as:
- **Weak:** Less than 5 million (adjustable).
- **Medium:** 5 to 20 million.
- **High:** 20 to 50 million.
- **Very High:** Over 50 million.
- This consistency in measurement ensures that liquidity classification remains unchanged across different timeframes, providing a reliable foundation for signals.
2. **Price Wave Analysis:**
- The indicator relies on wave analysis using various types of moving averages (e.g., SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, etc.), which users can select and customize in terms of periods.
- This analysis is integrated with additional indicators like RSI (Relative Strength Index) and MFI (Money Flow Index), weighted specifically (40% waves, 30% RSI, 30% MFI) to provide a comprehensive trend assessment.
3. **Filters and Their Functionality:**
- The indicator employs a multi-layered filtering system to refine signals and reduce noise, a key hidden feature that enhances its accuracy:
- **Main Filter:**
- Smooths rapid price fluctuations using a mathematical equation rooted in signal processing techniques.
- Applied to price data to extract core trends away from random volatility, with an adjustable period (default: 30).
- Utilizes a technique similar to high-pass filters to focus on significant movements.
- **Sub Filter:**
- Acts as a secondary filtering layer with a shorter period (default: 12) for finer signal tuning.
- Employs low-frequency-based equations to ensure resulting signals reflect genuine changes rather than mere noise.
- **Signal Trigger:**
- Applies a moving average to the main filter’s output to generate a signal line, compared against predefined entry and exit thresholds.
- Trigger period is adjustable (default: 3 for entry, 5 for exit) to speed up or slow down signals.
- **Square Filter:**
- A hidden feature activated by default, enhancing filter precision by narrowing the range of permissible oscillations, reducing random signals in volatile markets.
4. **Signal Filtering with ADX:**
- ADX is used as a final filter to confirm trend strength before issuing signals:
- **Weak and Medium:** Entry when ADX exceeds 40, exit above 50.
- **High:** Entry above 40, exit above 55.
- **Very High:** Entry above 35, exit above 38.
- These thresholds are adjustable, allowing the indicator to adapt to different trading strategies.
5. **Signal Generation:**
- **Entry:** A buy signal is triggered when signal lines drop below a specific threshold (e.g., -9) and conditions for filters, liquidity, and ADX are met.
- **Exit:** A sell signal is issued when signal lines rise above a threshold (e.g., 109 or 106, depending on the category) with all conditions satisfied.
- Signals are displayed in distinct colors (blue for entry, orange for Weak/Medium, red for High/Very High) and three sizes (small, medium, large).
6. **Result Display:**
- The current liquidity level is shown in a table at the top-right of the chart, enabling users to easily identify the asset’s category.
7. **Alert Support:**
- Instant alerts are provided for each liquidity category, facilitating both automated and manual trading.
#### **Hidden Aspects in the Code**
- **Advanced Filter Equations:** The indicator uses complex mathematical formulas inspired by signal processing to smooth data and extract trends, making it more precise than traditional indicators.
- **Automatic Adaptation:** The system internally adjusts based on price and volume changes, with hidden correction factors (e.g., smoothing coefficients in filters) to maintain stability.
- **Weighted Distribution:** The integration of waves, RSI, and MFI uses fixed weights (40%, 30%, 30%) for balanced analysis, a detail not directly visible but impactful on results.
- **Square Filter:** A hidden option, enabled by default, narrows signal range to minimize dispersion in high-volatility markets.
#### **Indicator Features**
1. **Multi-Layered Filters:** Ensures noise reduction and delivers only reliable signals.
2. **Liquidity Stability:** Daily liquidity measurement keeps classification consistent across timeframes.
3. **Comprehensive Customization:** Allows adjustments to liquidity thresholds, ADX levels, filter periods, and moving average types.
4. **Clear Visual Signals:** User-friendly design with easy-to-read visuals and instant alerts.
5. **Reduced False Signals:** Combining filters and ADX enhances accuracy and minimizes clutter.

Rotational Factor CalculationThe Rotational Factor is a simple, objective means for evaluating day timeframe attempted direction based on the market's half hour auction rotations. At any point in time during the day, the running tally can help keep general awareness for whether buyers or sellers are in control, and if a transition is taking place. It is also helpful to use as one of a handful of variables that categorize the session's Directional Performance to assist in possible direction for the next session. This method is from Dalton's Mind Over Market's book and in part helps answer the question, which way is the market trying to go? This can then be applied to the second question, is the market doing a good job in it's attempted direction? Staying aware of these two questions keeps current sentiment and expectations in check.
Calculation method
Each 30min RTH candle gets a score:
if the high is higher than the previous candle's high: +1
if the high is lower than the previous candle's high: -1
if the low is higher than the previous candle's low: +1
if the low is lower than the previous candle's low: -1
if the high (or low) of a candle is equal to the high (or low) of the previous candle: 0
The running tally intraday text is displayed in blue. Once the session closes the text is displayed in orange and remains listed over the final candle of the day for 30 days. The RTH candles are calculated until the end of the RTH session (3pm EST) even though the session's full tally is displayed over the final candle at 3:30pm EST.
Internal Market StructureInternal Market Structure Indicator (Based on Bearish/Bullish Candle Patterns)
This custom market structure indicator is designed to help traders identify key shifts in market pressure based on bullish and bearish candle patterns. The indicator tracks consecutive bullish and bearish candles and identifies significant points where the price action suggests a potential reversal or continuation of the current market trend.
Key Features:
1. Bullish & Bearish Candle Recognition: The indicator monitors individual candles to determine if they are bullish (close > open) or bearish (close < open), and uses this information to track price direction over consecutive candles.
2. Consecutive Candle Tracking: It tracks consecutive bullish and bearish candles, giving insight into the strength of the prevailing trend. The number of consecutive candles can be adjusted to refine the analysis based on market conditions.
3. Engulfing Candle Detection: The indicator identifies Bullish and Bearish Engulfing signals when a reversal pattern is detected. These are plotted as triangle shapes on the chart:
-Bullish Engulfing: Indicates a potential reversal or continuation of an upward move, where a bullish candle fully engulfs the previous bearish candle.
-Bearish Engulfing: Indicates a potential reversal or continuation of a downward move, where a bearish candle fully engulfs the previous bullish candle.
4. Internal Shifts: The indicator also tracks Internal Shifts, which occur when the price closes beyond the highest or lowest levels of previous bullish or bearish sequences, signaling a potential trend change:
-Bullish Internal Shift: A shift indicating the market may be turning bullish.
-Bearish Internal Shift: A shift indicating the market may be turning bearish.
5. Alerts: Custom alerts are included to notify traders when any of the above conditions are met:
-Bullish Pressure Change Alert
-Bearish Pressure Change Alert
-Bullish Internal Shift Alert
-Bearish Internal Shift Alert
Plotting:
The indicator visually marks these key price levels with shapes on the chart:
-Green Triangle Up: Bullish Engulfment
-Red Triangle Down: Bearish Engulfment
-Blue Triangle Down: Bearish Internal Shift
-Orange Triangle Up: Bullish Internal Shift
Usage:
This indicator can be used to spot potential reversals, continuation patterns, and shifts in market sentiment. Traders can combine these signals with other technical indicators to form a more robust trading strategy.
By focusing on candle patterns and market structure, this indicator offers a clear, actionable framework for understanding market behavior and making more informed trading decisions.
*NOTE*
The polyline and horizontal trend lines drawn are not included in this indicator, but are there to show how this indicator can be used to illustrate the internal market structure of the given timeframe.
Trapped Traders Order BlocksHow It Works
The Trapped Traders Order Blocks indicator identifies specific price action patterns that suggest large market participants ("big money") have been trapped in losing positions after significant price sweeps, creating potential opportunities for reversals. The indicator detects both "bullish trap blocks" (where bearish traders are trapped) and "bearish trap blocks" (where bullish traders are trapped). Here’s the step-by-step process for each:
Bullish Trap Block (Bears Trapped):
A bearish candle (Candle A) must sweep the high of the previous candle (Candle B), meaning its high exceeds the high of the prior candle.
This bearish candle must have a longer upper wick than its lower wick, indicating rejection of higher prices.
The candle must not be a doji (i.e., it must have a significant body, defined as the body being at least 10% of the candle's range).
The next candle (Candle C) must close above the body of the bearish candle (Candle A), suggesting that price has immediately moved against the bearish sweep, potentially trapping bearish traders who entered short positions expecting a downward move.
The body of the bearish candle (Candle A) is marked as a "bullish trap block." A box is drawn around this candle's body, and a label ("Bullish Trap") is placed below it.
Bearish Trap Block (Bulls Trapped):
A bullish candle (Candle A) must sweep the low of the previous candle (Candle B), meaning its low is below the low of the prior candle.
This bullish candle must have a longer lower wick than its upper wick, indicating rejection of lower prices.
The candle must not be a doji.
The next candle (Candle C) must close below the body of the bullish candle (Candle A), suggesting that price has immediately moved against the bullish sweep, potentially trapping bullish traders who entered long positions expecting an upward move.
The body of the bullish candle (Candle A) is marked as a "bearish trap block." A box is drawn around this candle's body, and a label ("Bearish Trap") is placed above it.
Dynamic Box Extension:
For both bullish and bearish trap blocks, the box extends dynamically to the current bar unless it exceeds a user-defined age (default is 52 bars), at which point it stops at the maximum age.
Sweep Detection:
Bullish Sweep (of any trap block, bullish or bearish):
The current candle's open is above the top of the box.
The low is below the top of the box.
The close is above the top of the box.
The lower wick is longer than the upper wick (indicating rejection of lower prices).
The close is above 50% of the candle's range (ensuring a strong bullish bias).
When a bullish sweep occurs, a label ("Bullish Sweep") is placed at the low of the candle, pointing upward, and an alert is triggered.
Bearish Sweep (of any trap block, bullish or bearish):
The current candle's open is below the bottom of the box.
The high is above the bottom of the box.
The close is below the bottom of the box.
The upper wick is longer than the lower wick (indicating rejection of higher prices).
The close is below 50% of the candle's range (ensuring a strong bearish bias).
When a bearish sweep occurs, a label ("Bearish Sweep") is placed at the high of the candle, pointing downward, and an alert is triggered.
When to Be Used
The Trapped Traders Order Blocks indicator is best used in the following scenarios:
Reversal Trading:
Use this indicator to identify potential reversal points in the market. Bullish trap blocks suggest that trapped bears may unwind their short positions, leading to a potential bullish move. Bearish trap blocks suggest that trapped bulls may unwind their long positions, leading to a potential bearish move.
Look for sweeps of these blocks as confirmation of a directional move. A bullish sweep indicates a potential upward move, while a bearish sweep indicates a potential downward move.
Range-Bound Markets:
In sideways or ranging markets, trapped blocks can highlight key levels where large players have been caught off-guard. These levels often act as support or resistance, and a sweep of the block can signal a breakout or continuation in the direction of the sweep.
Confluence with Other Indicators:
Combine the trapped blocks with other technical analysis tools, such as support/resistance levels, Fibonacci retracements, or volume analysis, to increase the probability of a successful trade. For example, a bullish trap block near a strong support level with a bullish sweep can provide a high-probability setup for a long position, while a bearish trap block near a strong resistance level with a bearish sweep can signal a short opportunity.
Timeframes:
The indicator is most effective on higher timeframes such as 1-day (1D), 1-week (1W), and 1-month (1M) charts. These timeframes are more likely to capture significant moves involving large market participants, reducing noise and false signals compared to lower timeframes. While it can be used on lower timeframes (e.g., 1-hour or 4-hour), the signals may be less reliable due to increased market noise.
Logic Behind It
The logic behind the Trapped Traders Order Blocks indicator is rooted in market psychology and the behavior of large market participants ("big money"). When a large sweep candle occurs where price spikes in one direction but then quickly reverses it often indicates that traders have entered positions in the direction of the sweep, expecting a continuation. However, if the price immediately moves against them, these traders are now trapped in losing positions.
Bullish Trap Block (Bears Trapped):
A large bearish sweep candle (spiking upward but closing lower) suggests that bearish traders (bears) have entered short positions at the top of the move, expecting a downward continuation. If the next candle closes above the bearish candle's body, these bears are trapped in losing positions.
The body of the bearish candle becomes a "bullish trap block" because the trapped bears are likely to have placed their stop-loss orders or break-even exit orders just above the high of the sweep candle or within the body of the candle. As price revisits this level in the future, these trapped traders may attempt to unwind their positions by buying back their shorts, which can drive the price higher. This unwinding process often attracts new buyers, leading to a potential bullish reversal or continuation.
The bullish sweep conditions (e.g., close > box top, longer lower wick, and close above 50% of the range) ensure that the price action at the block level shows strong bullish momentum and rejection of lower prices, confirming the potential for a move higher.
Bearish Trap Block (Bulls Trapped):
A large bullish sweep candle (spiking downward but closing higher) suggests that bullish traders (bulls) have entered long positions at the bottom of the move, expecting an upward continuation. If the next candle closes below the bullish candle's body, these bulls are trapped in losing positions.
The body of the bullish candle becomes a "bearish trap block" because the trapped bulls are likely to have placed their stop-loss orders or break-even exit orders just below the low of the sweep candle or within the body of the candle. As price revisits this level in the future, these trapped traders may attempt to unwind their positions by selling their longs, which can drive the price lower. This unwinding process often attracts new sellers, leading to a potential bearish reversal or continuation.
The bearish sweep conditions (e.g., close < box bottom, longer upper wick, and close below 50% of the range) ensure that the price action at the block level shows strong bearish momentum and rejection of higher prices, confirming the potential for a move lower.
Summary
Bullish Trap Block: Occurs when bears get trapped after a bearish sweep candle is immediately followed by a bullish candle, indicating a potential reversal as trapped bears may unwind their positions.
Bearish Trap Block: Occurs when bulls get trapped after a bullish sweep candle is immediately followed by a bearish candle, indicating a potential bearish reversal.
Use Case: Ideal for identifying reversal opportunities, especially in range-bound markets or at key support/resistance levels on higher timeframes like 1D, 1W, and 1M, and can be combined with other indicators for confluence.
Logic: Large sweep candles followed by an immediate reversal suggest that big money has been trapped, and these traders may unwind their positions at break-even in the near future, driving price in the opposite direction of their initial trade.
This indicator provides a visual and actionable way to identify these trapped trader scenarios, with customizable settings for box display, sweep visuals, and alerts to help traders capitalize on these opportunities, particularly on higher timeframes where the signals are most reliable.
