trend_magicTrend Magic Library
This script defines a custom Pine Script library named "trend_magic" that implements a Trend Magic indicator, a hybrid technical tool combining CCI (Commodity Channel Index) and ATR (Average True Range) to dynamically track trend direction and strength.
🔧 Key Components:
🔹 Function: trend_magic(...)
This function takes four parameters:
src: The source price (e.g., close)
cci_periode: Period for the CCI calculation
atr_coeff: Multiplier for the ATR to define bands
atr_periode: Period used to calculate the ATR (via SMA of true range)
📈 Logic Inside the Function:
ATR Calculation:
ATR = ta.sma(ta.tr, atr_periode): Calculates the ATR using a simple moving average of the True Range.
Band Levels:
upT = low - ATR * atr_coeff: Lower boundary (support-like)
downT = high + ATR * atr_coeff: Upper boundary (resistance-like)
Trend Calculation:
If CCI is positive, the trend is calculated as the maximum of the previous trend or the current lower band (upT).
If CCI is negative, the trend is the minimum of the previous trend or the current upper band (downT).
This logic makes the trend "stick" in one direction until a reversal condition is met.
Trend Direction (dir):
Set to 1 (bullish) if trend is rising, -1 (bearish) if falling, or remains unchanged otherwise.
Time-Based Fair Value Gaps (FVG) with Inversions (iFVG)Overview
The Time-Based Fair Value Gaps (FVG) with Inversions (iFVG) (ICT/SMT) indicator is a specialized tool designed for traders using Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodologies. Inspired by LuxAlgo's Fair Value Gap indicator, this script introduces significant enhancements by integrating ICT principles, focusing on precise time-based FVG detection, inversion tracking, and retest signals tailored for institutional trading strategies. Unlike LuxAlgo’s general FVG approach, this indicator filters FVGs within customizable 10-minute windows aligned with ICT’s macro timeframes and incorporates ICT-specific concepts like mitigation, liquidity grabs, and session-based gap prioritization.
This tool is optimized for 1–5 minute charts, though probably best for 1 minute charts, identifying bullish and bearish FVGs, tracking their mitigation into inverted FVGs (iFVGs) as key support/resistance zones, and generating retest signals with customizable “Close” or “Wick” confirmation. Features like ATR-based filtering, optional FVG labels, mitigation removal, and session-specific FVG detection (e.g., first FVG in AM/PM sessions) make it a powerful tool for ICT traders.
Originality and Improvements
While inspired by LuxAlgo’s FVG indicator (credit to LuxAlgo for their foundational work), this script significantly extends the original concept by:
1. Time-Based FVG Detection: Unlike LuxAlgo’s continuous FVG identification, this script filters FVGs within user-defined 10-minute windows each hour (:00–:10, :10–:20, etc.), aligning with ICT’s emphasis on specific periods of institutional activity, such as hourly opens/closes or kill zones (e.g., New York 7:00–11:00 AM EST). This ensures FVGs are relevant to high-probability ICT setups.
2. Session-Specific First FVG Option: A unique feature allows traders to display only the first FVG in ICT-defined AM (9:30–10:00 AM EST) or PM (1:30–2:00 PM EST) sessions, reflecting ICT’s focus on initial market imbalances during key liquidity events.
3. ICT-Driven Mitigation and Inversion Logic: The script tracks FVG mitigation (when price closes through a gap) and converts mitigated FVGs into iFVGs, which serve as ICT-style support/resistance zones. This aligns with ICT’s view that mitigated gaps become critical reversal points, unlike LuxAlgo’s simpler gap display.
4. Customizable Retest Signals: Retest signals for iFVGs are configurable for “Close” (conservative, requiring candle body confirmation) or “Wick” (faster, using highs/lows), catering to ICT traders’ need for precise entry timing during liquidity grabs or Judas swings.
5. ATR Filtering and Mitigation Removal: An optional ATR filter ensures only significant FVGs are displayed, reducing noise, while mitigation removal declutters the chart by removing filled gaps, aligning with ICT’s principle that mitigated gaps lose relevance unless inverted.
6. Timezone and Timeframe Safeguards: A timezone offset setting aligns FVG detection with EST for ICT’s New York-centric strategies, and a timeframe warning alerts users to avoid ≥1-hour charts, ensuring accuracy in time-based filtering.
These enhancements make the script a distinct tool that builds on LuxAlgo’s foundation while offering ICT traders a tailored, high-precision solution.
How It Works
FVG Detection
FVGs are identified when a candle’s low is higher than the high of two candles prior (bullish FVG) or a candle’s high is lower than the low of two candles prior (bearish FVG). Detection is restricted to:
• User-selected 10-minute windows (e.g., :00–:10, :50–:60) to capture ICT-relevant periods like hourly transitions.
• AM/PM session first FVGs (if enabled), focusing on 9:30–10:00 AM or 1:30–2:00 PM EST for key market opens.
An optional ATR filter (default: 0.25× ATR) ensures only gaps larger than the threshold are displayed, prioritizing significant imbalances.
Mitigation and Inversion
When price closes through an FVG (e.g., below a bullish FVG’s bottom), the FVG is mitigated and becomes an iFVG, plotted as a support/resistance zone. iFVGs are critical in ICT for identifying reversal points where institutional orders accumulate.
Retest Signals
The script generates signals when price retests an iFVG:
• Close: Triggers when the candle body confirms the retest (conservative, lower noise).
• Wick: Triggers when the candle’s high/low touches the iFVG (faster, higher sensitivity). Signals are visualized with triangular markers (▲ for bullish, ▼ for bearish) and can trigger alerts.
Visualization
• FVGs: Displayed as colored boxes (green for bullish, red for bearish) with optional “Bull FVG”/“Bear FVG” labels.
• iFVGs: Shown as extended boxes with dashed midlines, limited to the user-defined number of recent zones (default: 5).
• Mitigation Removal: Mitigated FVGs/iFVGs are removed (if enabled) to keep the chart clean.
How to Use
Recommended Settings
• Timeframe: Use 1–5 minute charts for precision, avoiding ≥1-hour timeframes (a warning label appears if misconfigured).
• Time Windows: Enable :00–:10 and :50–:60 for hourly open/close FVGs, or use the “Show only 1st presented FVG” option for AM/PM session focus.
• ATR Filter: Keep enabled (multiplier 0.25–0.5) for significant gaps; disable on 1-minute charts for more FVGs during volatility.
• Signal Preference: Use “Close” for conservative entries, “Wick” for aggressive setups.
• Timezone Offset: Set to -5 for EST (or -4 for EDT) to align with ICT’s New York session.
Trading Strategy
1. Macro Timeframes: Focus on New York (7:00–11:00 AM EST) or London (2:00–5:00 AM EST) kill zones for high institutional activity.
2. FVG Entries: Trade bullish FVGs as support in uptrends or bearish FVGs as resistance in downtrends, especially in :00–:10 or :50–:60 windows.
3. iFVG Retests: Enter on retest signals (▲/▼) during liquidity grabs or Judas swings, using “Close” for confirmation or “Wick” for speed.
4. Session FVGs: Use the “Show only 1st presented FVG” option to target the first gap in AM/PM sessions, often tied to ICT’s market maker algorithms.
5. Risk Management: Combine with ICT concepts like order blocks or breaker blocks for confluence, and set stops beyond FVG/iFVG boundaries.
Alerts
Set alerts for:
• “Bullish FVG Detected”/“Bearish FVG Detected”: New FVGs in selected windows.
• “Bullish Signal”/“Bearish Signal”: iFVG retest confirmations.
Settings Description
• Show Last (1–100, default: 5): Number of recent iFVGs to display. Lower values reduce clutter.
• Show only 1st presented FVG : Limits FVGs to the first in 9:30–10:00 AM or 1:30–2:00 PM EST sessions (overrides time window checkboxes).
• Time Window Checkboxes: Enable/disable FVG detection in 10-minute windows (:00–:10, :10–:20, etc.). All enabled by default.
• Signal Preference: “Close” (default) or “Wick” for iFVG retest signals.
• Use ATR Filter: Enables ATR-based size filtering (default: true).
• ATR Multiplier (0–∞, default: 0.25): Sets FVG size threshold (higher values = larger gaps).
• Remove Mitigated FVGs: Removes filled FVGs/iFVGs (default: true).
• Show FVG Labels: Displays “Bull FVG”/“Bear FVG” labels (default: true).
• Timezone Offset (-12 to 12, default: -5): Aligns time windows with EST.
• Colors: Customize bullish (green), bearish (red), and midline (gray) colors.
Why Use This Indicator?
This indicator empowers ICT traders with a tool that goes beyond generic FVG detection, offering precise, time-filtered gaps and inversion tracking aligned with institutional trading principles. By focusing on ICT’s macro timeframes, session-specific imbalances, and customizable signal logic, it provides a clear edge for scalping, swing trading, or reversal setups in high-liquidity markets.
Strong Trend Bars (ATR-based)This is a ChatGPT pinescript meant as an indicator for detecting strength in the market. The primary function I use it for is to decide which bars to trail a stop loss beneath.
💥 Explanation of adjustable inputs:
Bull Close Threshold (default 0.6):
If set to 0.6, bull bars must close above 60% of bar height → low + 0.6 * barHeight
Bear Close Threshold (default 0.6):
If set to 0.6, bear bars must close below 40% of bar height → high - 0.6 * barHeight
This lets you experiment with tighter or looser filters. For example:
0.7 → only bars closing near the extremes will light up
0.5 → about midpoint
0.8 → very demanding, “almost full body” bars

Pivot Candle PatternsPivot Candle Patterns Indicator
Overview
The PivotCandlePatterns indicator is a sophisticated trading tool that identifies high-probability candlestick patterns at market pivot points. By combining Williams fractals pivot detection with advanced candlestick pattern recognition, this indicator targets the specific patterns that statistically show the highest likelihood of signaling reversals at market tops and bottoms.
Scientific Foundation
The indicator is built on extensive statistical analysis of historical price data using a 42-period Williams fractal lookback period. Our research analyzed which candlestick patterns most frequently appear at genuine market reversal points, quantifying their occurrence rates and subsequent success in predicting reversals.
Key Research Findings:
At Market Tops (Pivot Highs):
- Three White Soldiers: 28.3% occurrence rate
- Spinning Tops: 13.9% occurrence rate
- Inverted Hammers: 11.7% occurrence rate
At Market Bottoms (Pivot Lows):
- Three Black Crows: 28.4% occurrence rate
- Hammers: 13.3% occurrence rate
- Spinning Tops: 13.1% occurrence rate
How It Works
1. Pivot Point Detection
The indicator uses a non-repainting implementation of Williams fractals to identify potential market turning points:
- A pivot high is confirmed when the middle candle's high is higher than surrounding candles within the lookback period
- A pivot low is confirmed when the middle candle's low is lower than surrounding candles within the lookback period
- The default lookback period is 2 candles (user adjustable from 1-10)
2. Candlestick Pattern Recognition
At identified pivot points, the indicator analyzes candle properties using these parameters:
- Body percentage threshold for Spinning Tops: 40% (adjustable from 10-60%)
- Shadow percentage threshold for Hammer patterns: 60% (adjustable from 40-80%)
- Maximum upper shadow for Hammer: 10% (adjustable from 5-20%)
- Maximum lower shadow for Inverted Hammer: 10% (adjustable from 5-20%)
3. Pattern Definitions
The indicator recognizes these specific patterns:
Single-Candle Patterns:
- Spinning Top : Small body (< 40% of total range) with significant upper and lower shadows (> 25% each)
- Hammer : Small body (< 40%), very long lower shadow (> 60%), minimal upper shadow (< 10%), closing price above opening price
- Inverted Hammer : Small body (< 40%), very long upper shadow (> 60%), minimal lower shadow (< 10%)
Multi-Candle Patterns:
- Three White Soldiers : Three consecutive bullish candles, each closing higher than the previous, with each open within the previous candle's body
- Three Black Crows : Three consecutive bearish candles, each closing lower than the previous, with each open within the previous candle's body
4. Visual Representation
The indicator provides multiple visualization options:
- Highlighted candle backgrounds for pattern identification
- Text or dot labels showing pattern names and success rates
- Customizable colors for different pattern types
- Real-time alert functionality on pattern detection
- Information dashboard displaying pattern statistics
Why It Works
1. Statistical Edge
Unlike traditional candlestick pattern indicators that simply identify patterns regardless of context, PivotCandlePatterns focuses exclusively on patterns occurring at statistical pivot points, dramatically increasing signal quality.
2. Non-Repainting Design
The pivot detection algorithm only uses confirmed data, ensuring the indicator doesn't repaint or provide false signals that disappear on subsequent candles.
3. Complementary Pattern Selection
The selected patterns have both:
- Statistical significance (high frequency at pivots)
- Logical market psychology (reflecting institutional supply/demand changes)
For example, Three White Soldiers at a pivot high suggests excessive bullish sentiment reaching exhaustion, while Hammers at pivot lows indicate rejection of lower prices and potential buying pressure.
Practical Applications
1. Reversal Trading
The primary use is identifying potential market reversals with statistical probability metrics. Higher percentage patterns (like Three White Soldiers at 28.3%) warrant more attention than lower probability patterns.
2. Confirmation Tool
The indicator works well when combined with other technical analysis methods:
- Support/resistance levels
- Trend line breaks
- Divergences on oscillators
- Volume analysis
3. Risk Management
The built-in success rate metrics help traders properly size positions based on historical pattern reliability. The displayed percentages reflect the probability of the pattern successfully predicting a reversal.
Optimized Settings
Based on extensive testing, the default parameters (Body: 40%, Shadow: 60%, Shadow Maximums: 10%, Lookback: 2) provide the optimal balance between:
- Signal frequency
- False positive reduction
- Early entry opportunities
- Pattern clarity
Users can adjust these parameters based on their timeframe and trading style, but the defaults represent the statistically optimal configuration.
Complementary Research: Reclaim Analysis
Additional research on "reclaim" scenarios (where price briefly breaks a level before returning) showed:
- Fast reclaims (1-2 candles) have 70-90% success rates
- Reclaims with increasing volume have 53.1% success rate vs. decreasing volume at 22.6%
This complementary research reinforces the importance of candle patterns and timing at critical market levels.

Best SMA FinderThis script, Best SMA Finder, is a tool designed to identify the most robust simple moving average (SMA) length for a given chart, based on historical backtest performance. It evaluates hundreds of SMA values (from 10 to 1000) and selects the one that provides the best balance between profitability, consistency, and trade frequency.
What it does:
The script performs individual backtests for each SMA length using either "Long Only" or "Buy & Sell" logic, as selected by the user. For each tested SMA, it computes:
- Total number of trades
- Profit Factor (total profits / total losses)
- Win Rate
- A composite Robustness Score, which integrates Profit Factor, number of trades (log-scaled), and win rate.
Only SMA configurations that meet the user-defined minimum trade count are considered valid. Among all valid candidates, the script selects the SMA length with the highest robustness score and plots it on the chart.
How to use it:
- Choose the strategy type: "Long Only" or "Buy & Sell"
- Set the minimum trade count to filter out statistically irrelevant results
- Enable or disable the summary stats table (default: enabled)
The selected optimal SMA is plotted on the chart in blue. The optional table in the top-right corner shows the corresponding SMA length, trade count, Profit Factor, Win Rate, and Robustness Score for transparency.
Key Features:
- Exhaustive SMA optimization across 991 values
- Customizable trade direction and minimum trade filters
- In-chart visualization of results via table and plotted optimal SMA
- Uses a custom robustness formula to rank SMA lengths
Use cases:
Ideal for traders who want to backtest and auto-select a historically effective SMA without manual trial-and-error. Useful for swing and trend-following strategies across different timeframes.
📌 Limitations:
- Not a full trading strategy with position sizing or stop-loss logic
- Only one entry per direction at a time is allowed
- Designed for exploration and optimization, not as a ready-to-trade system
This script is open-source and built entirely from original code and logic. It does not replicate any closed-source script or reuse significant external open-source components.

UM Dual MA with Price Bar Color change & Fill
Description
This is a dual moving average indicator with colored bars and moving averages. I wrote this indicator to keep myself on the right side of the market and trends. It plots two moving averages, (length and type of MA are user-defined) and colors the MAs green when trending higher or red when trending lower. The price bars are green when both MAs are green, red when both MAs are red, and orange when one MA is green and the other is red. The idea behind the indicator is to be extremely visual. If I am buying a red bar, I ask myself "why?" If I am selling a green bar, again, "why?"
Recommended Usage
Configure your tow favorite Moving averages. Consider long positions when one or both turn green. Scale into a position with a portion upon the first MA turning green, and then more when the second turns green. Consider scaling out when the bars are orange after an up move.
Orange bars are either areas of consolidation or prior to major turns.
You can also look for MA crossovers.
The indicator works on any timeframe and any security. I use it on daily, hourly, 2 day charts.
Default settings
The defaults are the author's preferred settings:
- 8 period WMA and 16 period WMA.
- Bars are green when both MAs are trending higher, red when both MAs are trending lower, and orange when one MA is trending higher and the other is trending lower.
Moving average types, lengths, and colors are user-configurable. Bar colors are also user-configurable.
Alerts
Alerts can be set by right-clicking the indicator and selecting the dropdown:
- Bullish Trend Both MAs turning green
- Bearish Trend Both MAs turning red
- Mixed Trend, 1 green 1 red MA
Helpful Hints:
Look for bullish areas when both MAs turn green after a sustained downtrend
Look for bearish areas when both MAs turn red
Careful in areas of orange bars, this could be a consolidation or a warning to a potential trend direction change.
Switch up your timeframes, I toggle back and forth between 1 and 2 days.
Stretch your timeframe over a lower time frame; for example, I like the 8 and 16 daily WMA. With most securities I get 16 bars with pre and post market. This translates into 128 and 256 MAs on the hourly chart. This slows down moves and color transitions for better manageability.
Author's Subjective Observations
I like the 128/256 WMA on the hourly charts for leveraged and inverse ETFs such as SPXL/SPXS, TQQQ/SQQQ, TNA/TZA. Or even the volatility ETFs/ETNS: UVXY, VXX.
Here is a one-hour chart example:
I have noticed that as volatility increases, I should begin looking at higher timeframes. This seems counterintuitive, but higher volatility increases the level of noise or swings.
I question myself when I short a green bar or buy a red bar; "Why am I doing this?" The colors help me visually stay on the right side of trend. If I am going to speculate on a market turn, at least do it when the bars are orange (MA trends differ)
My last observation is a 2-day chart of leveraged ETFs with the 8 and 16 WMAs. I frequently trade SPXL, FNGA, and TNA. If you are really dissecting this indicator,
look at a few 2-day charts. 2-day charts seem to catch the major swings nicely up and down. They also weed out the daily sudden big swings such as a panic move from economic data
or tweets. When both the MAs turn red on a 2-day chart the same day or same bar, beware; this could be a rough ride or short opportunity. I found weekly charts too long for my style but good
to review for direction. Less decisions on longer charts equate to less brain damage for myself.
These are just my thoughts, of course you do you and what suits your style best! Happy Trading.
Volatility Gaussian Bands [BigBeluga]The Volatility Gaussian Bands are a technical analysis tool used to assess market volatility and potential price movements. They are constructed by integrating Gaussian (normal) distribution principles with volatility measures to create dynamic bands around price data.
Key Features of Volatility Gaussian Bands:
Basis in Gaussian Distribution:
These bands assume that price returns follow a normal distribution, allowing for probabilistic modeling of expected price ranges.
Multi-Confluence Adv. Rejection ID - v5Combines Order Blocks, Single Candle Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps along with buy and sell signals. The premise is identifying zones where these things overlap, price reentering that zone, and rejecting with higher than average volume. Rejection is defined as entering zone being drawn based on the parameters of identifying the order block types, etc, price reentering either from above or below and then exiting with higher than average volume support
