Signal Analysis & Usage Guidelines
Buy Signal Mechanics
The buy signal triggers when:
Previous candle shows significant bearish movement (minimum ATR multiplier)
Current candle reclaims a configurable percentage of the previous candle's range
Price is near a key support level (order blocks, fibonacci, volume levels)
Sell Signal Mechanics
The sell signal triggers when:
Previous candle shows significant bullish movement (minimum ATR multiplier)
Current candle rejects below a configurable percentage of the previous candle's range
Price is near a key resistance level (order blocks, fibonacci, volume levels)
When to TAKE Signals
High Probability Buy Signals:
Signal appears AT or BELOW the VAL (Value Area Low)
Signal occurs at bullish order block confluence
Price is in LVN area below VAL (momentum acceleration zone)
Signal aligns with fibonacci 61.8% or 78.6% support
Multiple session POC levels provide support confluence
Previous session's VAL acting as current support
High Probability Sell Signals:
Signal appears AT or ABOVE the VAH (Value Area High)
Signal occurs at bearish order block confluence
Price is in HVN area above VAH (heavy resistance zone)
Signal aligns with fibonacci 61.8% or 78.6% resistance
Multiple session POC levels provide resistance confluence
Previous session's VAH acting as current resistance
When to AVOID Signals
Avoid Buy Signals When:
Signal appears ABOVE the VAH (buying into resistance)
Price is in HVN red zones (high volume resistance areas)
No clear support structure below current price
Volume profile shows heavy selling pressure (high bear percentages)
Signal occurs during low-volume periods between major sessions
Multiple bearish order blocks exist below current price
Avoid Sell Signals When:
Signal appears BELOW the VAL (selling into support)
Price is in LVN green zones (momentum could continue)
No clear resistance structure above current price
Volume profile shows heavy buying pressure (high bull percentages)
Signal occurs during Asian session ranges without clear direction
Multiple bullish order blocks exist above current price
Volume Profile Context for Signals
Understanding Bull/Bear Percentages:
70%+ Bull dominance at a level = Strong support expected
70%+ Bear dominance at a level = Strong resistance expected
50/50 Split = Neutral zone, less predictable
Use percentages to gauge conviction behind moves
POC (Point of Control) Interactions:
Signals above POC in uptrend = Higher probability
Signals below POC in downtrend = Higher probability
Signals against POC bias require extra confirmation
POC often acts as magnetic level for price return
Trading Strategies
Strategy 1: VAL/VAH Bounce Strategy
Wait for price to approach VAL (support) or VAH (resistance)
Look for signal confirmation at these critical levels
Enter with tight stops beyond the Value Area
Target opposite boundary or next session's levels
Strategy 2: Order Block + Volume Confluence
Identify order block alignment with VAL/VAH
Wait for signal within the confluence zone
Enter on signal with stop beyond order block
Use LVN areas as acceleration zones for targets
Strategy 3: LVN/HVN Strategy
LVN (Green) Areas: "Go Zones" - expect quick price movement through low volume
HVN (Red) Areas: "Stop Zones" - expect resistance and potential reversals
NPOC Areas: "Fill Zones" - price often returns to fill single print gaps
Strategy 4: Multi-Session Analysis
Use Daily/Weekly for major structure context
Use 4H for intermediate levels
Use 1H for precise entry timing
Ensure all timeframes align before taking signals
Strategy 5: Fibonacci + Volume Profile
Buy signals at 61.8% or 78.6% fibonacci near VAL
Sell signals at 61.8% or 78.6% fibonacci near VAH
Use 88.6% level as final support/resistance before major moves
50% level often aligns with POC for confluence
Signal Quality Assessment
Grade A Signals (Highest Probability):
Signal at VAL/VAH with order block confluence
Fibonacci level alignment (61.8%, 78.6%)
Volume profile shows 70%+ dominance in signal direction
Multiple timeframe structure alignment
Signal occurs during high-volume sessions (London/NY)
Grade B Signals (Moderate Probability):
Signal near POC with some confluence
Fibonacci 50% or 38.2% alignment
Mixed volume profile readings (50-70% dominance)
Some timeframe alignment present
Signal during overlap sessions
Grade C Signals (Lower Probability):
Signal with minimal confluence
Weak fibonacci alignment or none
Volume profile neutral or against signal
Conflicting timeframe signals
Signal during low-volume periods
Risk Management Guidelines
Position Sizing Based on Signal Quality:
Grade A: Standard position size
Grade B: Reduced position size (50-75%)
Grade C: Minimal position size (25%) or skip entirely
Stop Loss Placement:
Beyond order block boundaries
Outside Value Area (VAL/VAH)
Below/above fibonacci confluence levels
Account for session volatility ranges
Profit Targets:
First target: Opposite VAL/VAH boundary

Important Disclaimers
This indicator is a technical analysis tool designed for educational purposes. It does not provide financial advice, investment recommendations, or trading signals that guarantee profits. All trading involves substantial risk of loss, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Users should conduct their own research, understand the risks involved, and consider consulting with qualified financial advisors before making trading decisions. The signals and analysis provided are based on historical price patterns and volume data, which may not predict future market movements accurately.
Best Practices
Never trade signals blindly - always consider volume profile context
Wait for confluence between multiple tools before entering
Respect the Value Area - avoid buying above VAH or selling below VAL
Use session context - Asian ranges vs London/NY breakouts
Practice proper risk management - position size based on signal quality
Understand the bigger picture - use multiple timeframes for context
Remember: Like the IDKFA cheat code, having all the tools doesn't guarantee success. The key is learning to use them together effectively and understanding when NOT to take a signal is often more important than knowing when to take one.
Multitimeframe
T3 Moving Average with Multiple EMAsT3 Moving Average with Multiple EMAs
Short Title: T3 + EMAs
Overview
The T3 Moving Average with Multiple EMAs is a versatile trend-following indicator that combines the smooth, adaptive T3 Moving Average with eight customizable multi-timeframe Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs). Designed for traders seeking clarity in trend direction and momentum, this indicator overlays on the price chart to highlight dynamic support/resistance levels and trend alignment across multiple timeframes.
Key Features
T3 Moving Average: A highly responsive, smoothed moving average (default: 9-period, 0.7 volume factor) that reduces lag while maintaining accuracy, ideal for identifying short-term trends and reversals.
Eight Multi-Timeframe EMAs: Plots eight EMAs (default lengths: 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233) sourced from user-defined timeframes (e.g., 1m, 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h), providing a comprehensive view of short-, medium-, and long-term trends.
Customizable Timeframes: Each EMA can be independently set to a specific timeframe, allowing traders to analyze cross-timeframe trend alignment.
Theme Support: Offers "Dark" and "Light" themes with optimized colors for visual clarity and chart compatibility.
Flexible Parameters: Adjust T3 length, volume factor, EMA lengths, and timeframes to suit various markets and trading styles (scalping, swing trading, or long-term investing).
How It Works
The T3 Moving Average is calculated using a multi-stage EMA formula weighted by a volume factor, offering smoother trend tracking than traditional EMAs. The eight EMAs, sourced from higher or lower timeframes using request.security, provide a layered perspective on price trends. Faster EMAs (e.g., 8, 13) react to short-term price movements, while slower EMAs (e.g., 144, 233) reflect longer-term trends. The indicator plots all lines on the price chart with distinct, theme-adjusted colors for easy identification.
Usage
Trend Identification: Use the T3 MA for short-term trend signals and the EMAs to confirm broader trend direction. A price above multiple EMAs suggests a bullish trend; below indicates bearish.
EMA Crossovers: Watch for crossovers between faster and slower EMAs (e.g., 8 crossing 21) for potential entry/exit signals.
Support/Resistance: Treat slower EMAs (e.g., 89, 144) as dynamic support/resistance levels, especially on higher timeframes.
Timeframe Alignment: Align trades with the trend direction of higher-timeframe EMAs for higher-probability setups.
Customization: Adjust T3 and EMA settings to match your trading style or asset volatility.
Settings
T3 Parameters:
Length (default: 9): Period for T3 calculation.
Volume Factor (default: 0.7): Controls T3 smoothness (0.1–1.0).
EMA Parameters:
Lengths (default: 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233): Period for each EMA.
Timeframes (default: 5m, 5m, 15m, 15m, 1h, 1h, 4h, 4h): Select from 1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 4h, D, W, or M.
Theme: Choose "Dark" (vibrant colors) or "Light" (softer colors) for chart compatibility.
Notes
Combine with other tools (e.g., RSI, support/resistance, or volume) for confirmation.
Optimize settings for specific markets (e.g., crypto, forex, stocks) or timeframes.
The indicator is overlayed on the price chart for seamless integration with price action analysis.
Author’s Note
This indicator was designed to provide traders with a clear, multi-timeframe perspective on trends using the T3 MA and EMAs. Feedback is welcome to enhance this tool for the TradingView community!
MFI Candles MTF TableMFI Candles + Multi-Timeframe Table | by julzALGO
This open-source script visualizes the Money Flow Index (MFI) in a new format — as candles instead of a traditional oscillator line. It provides a clean, volume-driven view of momentum and pressure, ideal for traders seeking more actionable and visual cues than a typical MFI plot.
What Makes It Unique:
• Plots "MFI Candles" — synthetic candles based on smoothed MFI values using a selected timeframe (default: 1D), giving a new way to read volume flow.
• Candles reflect momentum: green if MFI rises, red if it falls.
• Background turns red when MFI is overbought (≥ 80) or green when oversold (≤ 20).
Multi-Timeframe Strength Table:
• Displays MFI values from 15m, 1h, 4h, and 1D timeframes — all in one dashboard.
• Color-coded for quick recognition: 🔴 Overbought, 🟢 Oversold.
• Values are smoothed with linear regression for better clarity.
Custom Settings:
• MFI calculation length
• Smoothing factor
• Candle source timeframe
• Toggle table and OB/OS background
How to Use:
- Use MFI Candles to monitor momentum shifts based on money flow.
- Use the Multi-Timeframe Table to identify when multiple timeframes align — helpful for timing entries and exits.
- Watch the background for extreme conditions (OB/OS) that may signal upcoming reversals or pressure exhaustion.
Happy Trading!
Multi-Timeframe Market Regime (Ehlers)This Pine Script indicator provides an Ehlers-inspired multi-timeframe market regime analysis directly on your TradingView chart. It aims to identify whether the market is currently "Trending Up" (green), "Trending Down" (red), or "Ranging" (yellow) across Weekly, Daily, 4-Hour, and 1-Hour timeframes.
It uses custom implementations of:
Ehlers' Fisher Transform to highlight market extremes and potential turning points.
An Adaptive Moving Average (inspired by MAMA/FAMA) that adjusts its speed based on volatility to reduce lag in trends and provide stability in ranges.
The indicator displays a dashboard as a label on your chart, showing the detected regime for each of these timeframes, and optionally colors the background of your current chart timeframe to reflect its dominant regime.
cd_secret_candlestick_patterns_CxHi traders,
With this indicator, we aim to uncover secret candlestick formations that even advanced traders may miss—especially those that can't be detected by classic pattern indicators, unless you're a true master of candlestick patterns or candle math.
________________________________________
General Idea:
We'll try to identify candlestick patterns by regrouping candles into custom-sized segments that you define.
You might ask: “Why do I need this? I can just look at different timeframes and spot the structure anyway.” But it’s not the same.
For example, if you're using a 1-minute chart and add a higher-timeframe candle overlay (like 5-minute), the candles you see start at fixed timestamps like 0, 5, 10, etc.
However, in this indicator, we redraw new candles by grouping them from the current candle backward in batches of five.
These candles won't match the standard view—only when aligned with exact time multiples (e.g., 0 and 5 minutes) will they look the same.
In classic charts:
• You see 5-minute candles that begin every 0 and 5 minutes.
In this tool:
• You see a continuously updating set of 5 merged 1-minute candles redrawn every minute.
What about the structures forming in between those fixed timeframes?
That’s exactly what we’ll be able to detect—while also making the lower timeframe chart more readable.
________________________________________
Candle Merging:
Let’s continue with an example.
Assume we choose to merge 5 candles. Then the new candle will be formed using:
open = open
close = close
high = math.max(high , high , high , high , high)
low = math.min(low , low , low , low , low)
This logic continues backward on the chart, creating merged candles in groups of 5.
Since the selected patterns are made up of 3, 4, or 5 candles, we redraw 5 such merged candles to analyze.
________________________________________
Which Patterns Are Included?
A total of 18 bullish and bearish patterns are included.
You’ll find both widely known formations and a few personal ones I use, marked as (MeReT).
You can find the pattern list and visual reference here:
________________________________________
Entry and Filtering Suggestions:
Let me say this clearly:
Entering a trade every time a pattern forms will not make you profitable in the long run.
You need a clear trade plan and should only act when you can answer questions like:
• Where did the pattern appear?
• When and under what conditions?
It’s more effective to trade in the direction of the trend and look for setups around support/resistance, supply/demand zones, key levels, or areas confirmed by other indicators.
Whether you enter immediately after the pattern or wait for a retest is a personal choice—but risk management is non-negotiable.
One of the optional filters I’ve included is a Higher Timeframe (HTF) condition, which is my personal preference:
When enabled, the highest or lowest price among the pattern candles must match the high or low of the current HTF candle.
You can see in the image below the decrease in the number of detected patterns on the 1-minute chart when using no filter (blue labels) compared to when the 1-hour timeframe filter is applied (red labels).
Additionally, I’ve added a “protected” condition for engulfing patterns to help filter out weak classic engulf patterns.
________________________________________
Settings:
From the menu, you can configure:
• Number of candles for regrouping
• Distance between the last candle and newly drawn candles
• Show/hide options
• HTF filter toggle and timeframe selection
• Color, label placement, and text customization
• Pattern list (select which to display or trigger alerts for)
My preferred setup:
While trading on the 1-minute chart, I typically set the higher timeframe to 15m or 1H, and switch the candle count between 2 and 3 depending on the situation.
⚠️ Important note:
The “Show” and “Alert” options are controlled by a single command.
Alerts are automatically created for any pattern you choose to display.
________________________________________
What’s Next?
In future updates, I plan to add:
• Pattern success rate statistics
• Multi-broker confirmation for pattern validation
Lastly, keep in mind:
The more candles a pattern is based on, the more reliable it may be.
I'd love to hear your feedback and suggestions.
Cheerful trading! 🕊️📈

Trap Candle (Trend H4 + RSI Filter)🔍 Trap Candle (Trend H4 + RSI Filter)
Description:
The Trap Candle indicator is designed to identify a specific and powerful two-candle price action pattern that often signals a false breakout followed by a strong reversal. It combines pure price action with two objective filters to increase signal quality and trend alignment.
📊 Pattern Logic:
Bullish Trap: The current candle breaks the previous candle’s low, but closes above its high (and is bullish).
Bearish Trap: The current candle breaks the previous candle’s high, but closes below its low (and is bearish).
This pattern often reveals institutional traps or stop hunts before directional movement.
🧠 Trend Filter (H4):
Ensures long signals occur only when the H4 close is higher than the previous H4 close (uptrend).
Ensures short signals occur only in a H4 downtrend.
Designed to align intraday entries (M15, H1) with higher timeframe momentum.
💪 RSI Confirmation:
Includes a configurable RSI filter on the current timeframe.
Only long signals are shown when RSI is above a user-defined threshold (e.g. 55).
Only short signals are shown when RSI is below a user-defined threshold (e.g. 45).
⚙️ Key Features:
Full customization of RSI period and thresholds.
Clean, visual signal plotting on the chart (with “Trap L” or “Trap S” labels).
Built-in alerts for both long and short trap candle setups.
Perfect for traders who want to trade smart reversals with trend and momentum confirmation.
✅ Recommended Timeframes:
M15 and H1 (entry)
Uses H4 for trend bias
If you’re looking to filter out noise and spot only the highest quality reversal setups, the Trap Candle (Trend H4 + RSI Filter) is a solid tool for any price action-based strategy.
LTF Volume markerLTF Volume Marker
Overview:
The LTF Volume Marker highlights candles that contain volume spikes on a lower timeframe (LTF), even while you are viewing a higher timeframe chart. It is designed to help identify hidden volume activity that may not be visible when aggregating candles.
This indicator is conceptually similar to a volume profile — but instead of showing distribution across price levels, it visualizes volume clusters within the structure of a sloped trend or time-based aggregation.
Key Features:
✅ Automatically detects high-volume candles on a user-defined lower timeframe
✅ Marks the price level of volume spikes using weighted average price (VWAP) within higher timeframe bars
✅ Supports both manual threshold and auto mode (which highlights top X% of volume candles in a selected range)
✅ Fully adjustable timeframe and date range
✅ Displays either a point or an area at the spike location or together
How It Works:
You define a Lower Timeframe (e.g. 1-minute) and optionally a threshold or use the auto mode to dynamically calculate it from past data.
On higher timeframes (e.g. 5-min, 15-min), the indicator looks inside each bar, finds all volume spikes, and plots the volume-weighted average price of those spikes.
If you are on the same timeframe as the LTF, it simply highlights candles with volume exceeding the threshold.
Use Cases:
Spotting hidden volume clusters inside trending moves
Validating support/resistance levels with underlying volume
Filtering false breakouts using intra-bar volume
Enhancing scalping and intraday setups by visualizing internal structure
Notes:
The indicator ignores future-looking data (lookahead=off) and only processes completed bars.
If the chart’s timeframe is lower than the selected LTF, the indicator will automatically disable itself.
Works best with aggregated symbols, such as futures or cryptocurrencies with high resolution data.

Intermarket Correlation Oscillator (ICO)The Intermarket Correlation Oscillator (ICO) is a TradingView indicator that helps traders analyze the relationship between two assets, such as stocks, indices, or cryptocurrencies, by measuring their price correlation. It displays this correlation as an oscillator ranging from -1 to +1, making it easy to spot whether the assets move together, oppositely, or independently. A value near +1 indicates strong positive correlation (assets move in the same direction), near -1 shows strong negative correlation (opposite movements), and near 0 suggests no correlation. This tool is ideal for confirming trends, spotting divergences, or identifying hedging opportunities across markets.
How It Works?
The ICO calculates the Pearson correlation coefficient between the chart’s primary asset (e.g., Apple stock) and a secondary asset you choose (e.g., SPY for the S&P 500) over a specified number of bars (default: 20). The oscillator is plotted in a separate pane below the chart, with key levels at +0.8 (overbought, strong positive correlation) and -0.8 (oversold, strong negative correlation). A midline at 0 helps gauge neutral correlation. When the oscillator crosses these levels or the midline, labels ("OB" for overbought, "OS" for oversold) and alerts notify you of significant shifts. Shaded zones highlight extreme correlations (red for overbought, green for oversold) if enabled.
Why Use the ICO?
Trend Confirmation: High positive correlation (e.g., SPY and QQQ both rising) confirms market trends.
Divergence Detection: Negative correlation (e.g., DXY rising while stocks fall) signals potential reversals.
Hedging: Identify negatively correlated assets to balance your portfolio.
Market Insights: Understand how assets like stocks, bonds, or crypto interact.
Easy Steps to Use the ICO in TradingView
Add the Indicator:
Open TradingView and load your chart (e.g., AAPL on a daily timeframe).
Go to the Pine Editor at the bottom of the TradingView window.
Copy and paste the ICO script provided earlier.
Click "Add to Chart" to display the oscillator below your price chart.
Configure Settings:
Click the gear icon next to the indicator’s name in the chart pane to open settings.
Secondary Symbol: Choose an asset to compare with your chart’s symbol (e.g., "SPY" for S&P 500, "DXY" for USD Index, or "BTCUSD" for Bitcoin). Default is SPY.
Correlation Lookback Period: Set the number of bars for calculation (default: 20). Use 10-14 for short-term trading or 50 for longer-term analysis.
Overbought/Oversold Levels: Adjust thresholds (default: +0.8 for overbought, -0.8 for oversold) to suit your strategy. Lower values (e.g., ±0.7) give more signals.

Modified Fractal Open/CloseModified Fractal (Open/Close Based) - Indicator
The Modified Fractal (Open/Close Based) indicator offers a new way to detect fractal patterns on your chart by analyzing the open and close prices instead of the traditional high and low values.
🧮 How it works:
The indicator evaluates a group of 5 consecutive candles.
The central candle (2 bars ago) is analyzed.
For a Bullish Fractal:
The open or close of the central candle must be lower than the open and close of the other 4 surrounding candles.
For a Bearish Fractal:
The open or close of the central candle must be higher than the open and close of the other 4 surrounding candles.
Once a valid pattern is detected, a visual symbol (triangle) is plotted directly on the chart and an alert can be triggered.
✅ Key Features:
Non-repainting signals (evaluated after candle close)
Fully mechanical detection logic
Easy-to-use visual signals
Alert conditions ready to be integrated into TradingView’s alert system
Suitable for multiple timeframes (can be used from M1 to Daily and beyond)
🎯 Use case:
This modified fractal approach can help traders:
Spot potential swing points
Identify possible reversals
Confirm price exhaustion zones
Support breakout or mean reversion strategies
⚠ Note:
This indicator does not provide trade signals by itself. It is recommended to be combined with additional tools, price action analysis, or risk management rules.
CandelaCharts - 1st Presented FVG 📝 Overview
The ICT 1st Presented Fair Value Gap refers to the first FVG that forms after the market opens at 9:30 AM New York local time. In a sideways market, it often acts as a catalyst for price movement in either direction, while in trending conditions, it tends to support and reinforce the prevailing trend.
This indicator automatically identifies the first Fair Value Gap (FVG) that forms after the New York session opens at 9:30 AM local time. Based on concepts taught by Inner Circle Trader (ICT), the 1st Presented FVG is a key institutional price imbalance that often sets the tone for the trading day.
📦 Features

📒 Usage
How to Use the ICT 1st Presented Fair Value Gap in Trading
To apply the ICT 1st Presented Fair Value Gap (FVG), identify the first fair value gap of the day and extend it across the chart until 3:45 PM New York time.
You’ll often notice that some of the best trade setups form around this level. It tends to act as a key reference point for price action during the day—especially on trending days, where price frequently returns to this gap before continuing in its direction.
This level can also serve as an inverse fair value gap, offering opportunities in the opposite direction under the right conditions.
How to Disqualify the 1st Presented Fair Value Gap?
When the first fair value gap forms after 9:30 AM New York time, check the candles that came just before it.
If the candlestick that creates the FVG doesn’t break above or below the range of those previous candles, then it’s not a true inefficiency. In that case, it’s considered a disqualified 1st Presented Fair Value Gap—meaning it shouldn’t be used as a key reference level.
Refer to the example below to see what this looks like on the chart.
🚨 Alerts

Advanced Volume Profile Levels (Working)This indicator is a powerful tool for traders who use volume profile analysis to identify significant price levels. It automatically calculates and plots the three most critical levels derived from volume data—the Point of Control (POC), Value Area High (VAH), and Value Area Low (VAL)—for three different timeframes simultaneously: the previous week, the previous day, and the current, live session.
The primary focus of this indicator is unmatched readability. It features dynamic, floating labels that stay clear of price action, combined with a high-contrast design to ensure you can see these crucial levels at a glance without any visual clutter.
Key Features
Multi-Session Analysis: Gain a complete market perspective by viewing levels from different timeframes on a single chart.
Weekly Levels: Identify the long-term areas of value and control from the prior week's trading activity.
Daily Levels: Pinpoint the most significant levels from the previous day's Regular Trading Hours (9:30 AM - 4:00 PM ET).
Current Session Levels: Track the developing value area and POC in real-time with a dynamic profile that updates with every bar.
Advanced Visuals for Clarity:
Floating Labels: The labels for the weekly and daily levels intelligently "float" on the right side of your chart, moving with the price to ensure they are never obscured by candles.
High-Contrast Design: Labels are designed for maximum readability with solid, opaque backgrounds and an automatic text color (black or white) that provides the best contrast against your chosen level color.
Trailing Current Levels: The labels for the current session neatly trail the most recent price action, providing an intuitive view of intra-day developments.
Comprehensive Customization: Tailor the indicator's appearance to your exact preferences.
Toggle each profile (Weekly, Daily, Current) on or off.
Individually set the color, line style (solid, dashed, dotted), and line width for each set of levels.
Adjust the text size, background transparency, and horizontal offset for all on-chart labels.
Information Hub:
On-Chart Price Labels: Each label clearly displays both the level name and its precise price (e.g., "D-POC: 22068.50").
Corner Table: An optional, clean table in the top-right corner provides a quick summary of all active weekly and daily level values.
Built-in Alerts:
Create alerts directly from the script to be notified whenever the price crosses above or below the weekly or daily Point of Control, helping you stay on top of key market movements.
How to Use
The levels provided by this indicator serve as powerful reference points for market activity:
Point of Control (POC): The price level with the highest traded volume. It acts as a magnet for price and represents the area of "fair value" for that session. Markets often test or revert to the POC.
Value Area High (VAH) & Value Area Low (VAL): These levels define the range where approximately 70% of the session's volume occurred. They are critical support and resistance zones.
Price acceptance above the VAH may signal a bullish breakout.
Price acceptance below the VAL may signal a bearish breakdown.
Rejection at the VAH or VAL often leads to price moving back across the value area towards the POC.
Trend Blend
Trend blend is my new indicator. I use it to identify my bias when trading and filter out fake setups that are going in the wrong direction.
Trend blend utilises the 9 EMA (Red), 21 EMA (Black), and if you trade futures or Bitcoin, you can also use the VWAP (Blue).
There is also a table at the top right that displays the chart time frame bias
I prefer to use the 1-hour time frame for bias and execute the trades on 5-minute charts, mainly, and sometimes on the 1-minute for a smaller stoploss.
Here's an example of the trade I took during the London session on XAU/USD
1 hour bias was Bearish
Price broke out of the range
I waited for the London session to open, where I ended up taking a short on the 5-minute time frame as we broke out of the pre-London range
Entry was at the Fair Value Gap (5-minute bias was also Bearish as price traded into the FVG)
Stoploss was at the last high
Take Profit was the next major support level
Another set that I like to trade with the Trend blend is when price is trending bullish and price trades inside the 9 and 21 EMA, and there is a bullish candle closer above the 9 EMA with Stoploss below the low of the bullish candle and Take profit between 1-2 Risk to Reward
Same when there's a bearish trend, I wait for price to trade inside the 9 and 21 EMA, and I'll take sells when a bearish candle closes below the 9 EMA.
This setup works best in strong trends, or it can be used to enter a trade on a pullback or to scale into an existing trade.
S&P Power Hour Liquidity Sweep StrategyThis indicator is designed for intraday traders who want to take advantage of liquidity grabs, break of structure (BOS), and optimal entry points during the most volatile hours of the trading day: the NYSE Power Hours (09:30–10:30 AM and 02:30–04:00 PM EST).

Fair Value Gap (FVG) Highlighting: (Optional)
Spot institutional imbalances between candles to fine-tune trade entries.
How It Works:
Wait for price to sweep a swing high or low during the power hours.
Look for a break of structure (BOS) in the opposite direction.
Enter on the next candle or FVG retest.
The indicator will plot a yellow circle for entry, a red line for stop, and a green line for the target (based on your RR setting).
Customizable Inputs:
Swing sensitivity (lookback bars)
Risk-to-reward ratio
Optional FVG visibility
Best Used With:
Higher timeframe bias (15m/1H)
Order blocks or volume analysis
Avoiding major news events
Whether you're a scalper or precision-based intraday trader, this tool helps you spot high-probability reversal setups with clean visuals and clear confirmations.
