Minervini VCP Pattern -Indian ContextThis script implements Mark Minervini's Trend Template and VCP (Volatility Contraction Pattern) pattern, specifically adapted for Indian stock markets (NSE). It helps identify stocks that are in strong uptrends and ready to break out.
Core Concepts Explained
1. What is the Minervini Trend Template?
Mark Minervini's method identifies stocks in Stage 2 uptrends - the sweet spot where institutional money is accumulating and stocks show the strongest momentum. Think of it as finding stocks that are "leaders" rather than "laggards."
2. What is VCP (Volatility Contraction Pattern)?
A VCP occurs when:
Stock price consolidates (moves sideways) after an uptrend
Price swings get tighter and tighter (like a coiled spring)
Volume dries up (fewer people trading)
Then it breaks out with force.
You can customize the strategy settings without editing code.
Key Settings:
Minimum Price (₹50): Filters out penny stocks that are too volatile
Min Distance from 52W Low (30%): Stock should be at least 30% above its yearly low
Max Distance from 52W High (25%): Stock should be within 25% of its yearly high (showing strength)
Moving Average Periods: 10, 50, 150, 200 days (industry standard)
Minimum Volume (100,000 shares): Ensures the stock is liquid enough to trade
Indian Market Adaptation: The default values (₹50 minimum, volume thresholds) are adjusted for NSE stocks, which behave differently than US markets.
The script pulls weekly chart data even when you're viewing daily charts.
Why it matters: Weekly trends are more reliable than daily noise. Professional traders use weekly charts to confirm the bigger picture.
What are Moving Averages (MAs)?
Simple averages of closing prices over X days
They smooth out price action to show trends
Think of them as the "average cost" of buyers over different time periods
The 4 Key MAs:
10 MA (Fast): Very short-term trend
50 MA: Short to medium-term trend
150 MA: Medium to long-term trend
200 MA: Long-term trend (the "grandfather" of all MAs)
Why Weekly MAs?
The script also calculates 10 and 50 MAs on weekly data for additional confirmation of the bigger trend.
The script Finds the highest and lowest prices over the past 52 weeks (1 year).
Why it matters:
Stocks near 52-week highs are showing strength (institutions buying)
Stocks far from 52-week lows have "room to run" upward
This is a psychological level that influences trader behaviour.
What is Volume here ?
The number of shares traded each day
High volume = many traders interested (conviction)
Low volume = lack of interest (weakness or consolidation)
Volume in VCP:
During consolidation (sideways movement), volume should dry up - this shows sellers are exhausted and buyers are holding. When volume spikes on a breakout, it confirms the move.
NSE Context: Indian stocks often have different volume patterns than US stocks, so the 50-day average is used as a baseline.
Relative Strength vs Nifty:
Example:
If your stock is up 20% and Nifty is up 10%, your stock has strong RS
If your stock is up 5% and Nifty is up 15%, your stock has weak RS (avoid it!)
Why it matters: The best performing stocks almost always have strong relative strength before major moves.
The 13 Minervini Conditions:-
Condition 1: Price > 50/150/200 MA
Meaning: Current price must be above ALL three major moving averages.
Why: This confirms the stock is in a clear uptrend. If price is below these MAs, the stock is weak or in a downtrend.
Condition 2: MA 50 > 150 > 200
Meaning: The moving averages themselves must be in proper order.
Analogy: Think of this like layers in a cake - short-term on top, long-term at bottom. If they're tangled, the trend is unclear.
Condition 3: 200 MA Rising (1 Month)
Meaning: The 200 MA today must be higher than it was 20 days ago.
Why: This confirms the long-term trend is UP, not flat or down. The means "20 bars ago."
Condition 4: 50 MA Rising
Meaning: The 50 MA today must be higher than 5 days ago.
Why: Confirms short-term momentum is accelerating upward.
Condition 5: Within 25% of 52-Week High
Meaning: Current price should be within 25% of its 1-year high.
Example:
52-week high = ₹1000
Current price must be above ₹750 (within 25%)
Why: Strong stocks stay near their highs. Weak stocks fall far from highs.
Condition 6: 30%+ Above 52-Week Low (OPTIONAL)
Meaning: Stock should be at least 30% above its yearly low.
Note: The script marks this as "SECONDARY - Optional" because the other conditions are more important. However, it's still a good confirmation.
Condition 7: Price > 10 MA
Meaning: Very short-term strength - price above the 10-day moving average.
Why: Ensures the stock hasn't just rolled over in the immediate term.
Condition 8: Price >= ₹50
Meaning: Filters out stocks below ₹50.
Why: In Indian markets, stocks below ₹50 tend to be penny stocks with poor liquidity and higher manipulation risk.
Condition 9: Weekly Uptrend
Meaning: On the weekly chart, price must be above both weekly MAs, and they must be properly aligned.
Why: Confirms the bigger picture trend, not just daily fluctuations.
Condition 10: 150 MA Rising
Meaning: The 150 MA is trending upward over the past 10 days.
Why: Another confirmation of medium-term trend health.
Condition 11: Sufficient Volume
Meaning: Average volume must exceed 100,000 shares (or your custom setting).
Why: Ensures you can actually buy/sell the stock without moving the price too much (liquidity).
Condition 12: RS vs Nifty Strong
Meaning: The stock's relative strength vs Nifty must be improving.
Why: You want stocks that are outperforming the market, not underperforming.
Condition 13: Nifty in Uptrend
Meaning: The Nifty 50 index itself must be above its 50 MA.
Why: "A rising tide lifts all boats." It's easier to make money in individual stocks when the overall market is bullish.
VCP Requirements:
Volatility Contracting: Price swings getting tighter (coiling spring)
Volume Drying Up: Fewer shares trading + trending lower
The Setup: When volatility contracts and volume dries up WHILE all 13 trend conditions are met, you have a VCP setup ready to explode.
What You See on Chart:
Colored Lines: 10 MA (green), 50 MA (blue), 150 MA (orange), 200 MA (red)
Blue Background: Trend template conditions met (watch zone)
Green Background: Full VCP setup detected (buy zone)
↟ Symbol Below Price: New VCP buy signal just triggered
Information Table:
What it does: Creates a checklist table on your chart showing the status of all conditions.
Table Structure:
Column 1: Condition name
Column 2: Status (✓ green = met, ✗ red = not met)
Final Row: Shows "BUY" (green) or "WAIT" (red) based on full VCP setup status.
Dos:
Example:
Account size: ₹5,00,000
Risk per trade: 1% = ₹5,000
Entry: ₹1000
Stop loss: ₹920 (8% below)
Distance to stop: ₹80
Shares to buy: ₹5,000 / ₹80 = 62 shares
Exit Strategy:
Sell 1/3 at +20% profit
Sell another 1/3 at +40% profit
Let the final 1/3 run with a trailing stop
Always exit if price closes below 10 MA on heavy volume
What This Script Does NOT Do:
Guarantee profits - No strategy works 100% of the time
Account for news events - Earnings, regulatory changes, etc.
Consider fundamentals - Company financials, debt, management quality
Adapt to market crashes - Works best in bull markets
Best Market Conditions:
✅ Nifty in uptrend (above 50 MA)
✅ Market breadth positive (more stocks advancing)
✅ Sector rotation happening
❌ Avoid in bear markets or high volatility periods

Dumb Money Flow - Retail Panic & FOMO# Dumb Money Flow (DMF) - Retail Panic & FOMO
## 🌊 Overview
**Dumb Money Flow (DMF)** is a powerful **contrarian indicator** designed to track the emotional state of the retail "herd." It identifies moments of extreme **Panic** (irrational selling) and **FOMO** (irrational buying) by analyzing on-chain data, volume anomalies, and price velocity.
In crypto markets, retail traders often buy the top (FOMO) and sell the bottom (Panic). This indicator helps you do the opposite: **Buy when the herd is fearful, and Sell when the herd is greedy.**
---
## 🧠 How It Works
The indicator combines multiple data points into a single **Sentiment Index** (0-100), normalized over a 90-day period to ensure it always uses the full range of the chart.
### 1. Panic Index (Bearish Sentiment)
Tracks signs of capitulation and fear. High values contribute to the **Panic Zone**.
* **Exchange Inflows:** Spikes in funds moving to exchanges (preparing to sell).
* **Volume Spikes:** High volume during price drops (panic selling).
* **Price Crash (ROC):** Rapid, emotional price drops over 3 days.
* **Volatility (ATR):** High market nervousness and instability.
### 2. FOMO Index (Bullish Sentiment)
Tracks signs of euphoria and greed. High values contribute to the **FOMO Zone**.
* **Exchange Outflows:** Funds moving to cold storage (HODLing/Greed).
* **Profitable Addresses:** When >90% of holders are in profit, tops often form.
* **Parabolic Rise:** Rapid, unsustainable price increases.
---
## 🎨 Visual Guide
The indicator uses a distinct color scheme to highlight extremes:
* **🟢 Dark Green Zone (> 80): Extreme FOMO**
* **Meaning:** The crowd is euphoric. Risk of a correction is high.
* **Action:** Consider taking profits or looking for short entries.
* **🔴 Dark Burgundy Zone (< 20): Extreme Panic**
* **Meaning:** The crowd is capitulating. Prices may be oversold.
* **Action:** Look for buying opportunities (catching the knife with confirmation).
* **🔵 Light Blue Line:**
* The smoothed moving average of the sentiment, helpful for seeing the trend direction.
---
## 🛠️ How to Use (Trading Strategies)
### 1. Contrarian Reversals (The Primary Strategy)
* **Buy Signal:** Wait for the line to drop deep into the **Burgundy Panic Zone (< 20)** and then start curling up. This indicates that the worst of the selling pressure is over.
* **Sell Signal:** Wait for the line to spike into the **Green FOMO Zone (> 80)** and then start curling down. This suggests buying exhaustion.
### 2. Divergences
* **Bullish Divergence:** Price makes a **Lower Low**, but the DMF Indicator makes a **Higher Low** (less panic on the second drop). This is a strong reversal signal.
* **Bearish Divergence:** Price makes a **Higher High**, but the DMF Indicator makes a **Lower High** (less FOMO/buying power on the second peak).
### 3. Trend Confirmation (Midline Cross)
* **Crossing 50 Up:** Sentiment is shifting from Fear to Greed (Bullish).
* **Crossing 50 Down:** Sentiment is shifting from Greed to Fear (Bearish).
---
## ⚙️ Settings
* **Data Source:** Defaults to `INTOTHEBLOCK` for on-chain data.
* **Crypto Asset:** Auto-detects BTC/ETH, but can be forced.
* **Normalization Period:** Default 90 days. Determines the "window" for defining what is considered "Extreme" relative to recent history.
* **Weights:** You can customize how much each factor (Volume, Inflows, Price) contributes to the index.

Fibonacci Degree System This Pine Script creates a sophisticated technical analysis tool that combines Fibonacci retracements with a degree-based cycle system. Here's a comprehensive breakdown:
Core Concept
The indicator maps price movements onto a 360-degree circular framework, treating market cycles like geometric angles. It creates a visual "mesh" where Fibonacci ratios intersect in both price (horizontal) and time (vertical) dimensions.
How It Works
1. Finding Reference Points
The script looks back over a specified period (default 100 bars) to identify:
Highest High: The peak price point
Lowest Low: The trough price point
Time Locations: Exactly which bars these extremes occurred on
These two points form the boundaries of your analysis window.
2. Creating the Fibonacci Grid
Horizontal Lines (Price Levels):
The script divides the price range between high and low into seven key Fibonacci ratios:
0% (Low) - Bottom boundary in red
23.6% - Minor retracement in orange
38.2% - Shallow retracement in yellow
50% - Midpoint in lime green
61.8% - Golden ratio in aqua (most significant)
78.6% - Deep retracement in blue
100% (High) - Top boundary in purple
Each line represents a potential support/resistance level where price might react.
Vertical Lines (Time Cycles):
The same Fibonacci ratios are applied to the time dimension between the high and low bars. If your high and low are 50 bars apart, vertical lines appear at:
Bar 0 (0%)
Bar 12 (23.6%)
Bar 19 (38.2%)
Bar 25 (50%)
Bar 31 (61.8%)
Bar 39 (78.6%)
Bar 50 (100%)
These suggest when price might make significant moves.
3. The Degree Mapping System
The innovative feature maps the time progression to degrees:
0° = Start point (0% time)
85° = 23.6% through the cycle
138° = 38.2% through the cycle
180° = Midpoint (50%)
222° = 61.8% through the cycle (golden angle)
283° = 78.6% through the cycle
360° = Complete cycle (100%)
This treats market movements as circular patterns, similar to how planets orbit or pendulums swing.
Visual Output
When you apply this indicator, you'll see:
A rectangular mesh extending beyond your high-low range (by 150% default)
Color-coded horizontal lines showing price Fibonacci levels
Matching vertical lines showing time Fibonacci intervals
Price labels on the right showing percentage levels
Degree labels at the bottom showing the angular position in the cycle
Intersection points creating a grid of potentially significant price-time coordinates
Trading Application
Traders use this to identify:
Support/Resistance Zones: Where horizontal and vertical lines intersect
Time Targets: When price might reverse (at vertical Fibonacci times)
Cycle Completion: When approaching 360°, a new cycle may begin
Harmonic Patterns: Geometric relationships between price and time
Customization Features
The script offers extensive control:
Lookback period: Adjust cycle length (10-500 bars)
Mesh extension: How far to project the grid forward
Visual toggles: Show/hide horizontal lines, vertical lines, labels
Styling: Line thickness, style (solid/dashed/dotted), colors
Label positioning: Fine-tune text placement for readability
The intersection at 61.8% time and 61.8% price at 222° becomes a key target zone.
This tool essentially converts the abstract concept of market cycles into a concrete, visual geometric framework that traders can analyze and act upon.

Pure Wyckoff V50R [Region Based]Pure Wyckoff V50R — Regional Wyckoff Volume-Price Structure Scanner
This script implements a semi-automatic Wyckoff volume–price analysis based purely on regional behaviour, not on single candles. Instead of trying to label every bar, it analyses the last N candles (default ≥ 50) and their volume distribution to estimate whether the market is in an accumulation, distribution or trend phase.
Main features:
🔍 Region-based structure detection
Scans the last regLen bars to find the trading range, then attempts to locate key Wyckoff points such as
SC (Selling Climax), AR, ST, Spring, UT, LPSY, and draws the SC–AR band when a structure is active.
⚖️ Supply–demand balance
Uses regional bullish vs bearish volume to show whether Demand > Supply, Supply > Demand, or Balanced for the current range.
🧠 Phase & decision panel
For the current bar the panel summarises:
overall structure (bullish / bearish / ranging),
approximate Wyckoff phase (e.g. “A phase: SC→AR rally”, “B phase: top distribution zone”, “Bottom testing zone”),
VSA-style bar reading (no supply, effort vs result, SOW, etc.),
current key signal (Spring / UT / LPSY / ST / Trend),
one-line short-term and long-term trading bias.
📊 Scoreboard
Simple scores for structure, volume and trend to give a quick “bullish / bearish / neutral” overview.
Recommended use:
Designed mainly for higher timeframes (Daily / 4H) where Wyckoff structures are clearer.
Parameters (window length, volume averages, multipliers) should be tuned to the instrument and timeframe.
This is a structure helper, not an automatic signal provider – always combine it with your own discretion and risk management.

Float Rotation TrackerFloat Rotation Tracker - Quick Reference Guide
What is Float Rotation?
Float Rotation = Cumulative Daily Volume ÷ Float
Example:
Float = 5,000,000 shares
Day Volume = 7,500,000 shares
Rotation = 7.5M ÷ 5M = 1.5x (150%)
When rotation hits 1x (100%), every available share has theoretically changed hands at least once during the trading day.
Why It Matters
RotationMeaningImplication0.5x50% of float tradedInterest building1.0x 🔥Full rotationExtreme interest confirmed2.0x 🔥🔥Double rotationVery high volatility3.0x 🔥🔥🔥Triple rotationRare - maximum volatility
Key insight: High rotation on a low-float stock = explosive potential
Float Classification

Common Questions
Q: Why is my float showing "Manual (no data)"?
A: TradingView doesn't have float data for this stock. Enter the float manually in settings after looking it up on Finviz or Yahoo Finance.
Q: The rotation seems too high/low - is the float wrong?
A: Possibly. Cross-check float on Finviz. Recent offerings or share structure changes may not be reflected in TradingView's data.
Q: What if float rotates early in the day?
A: Early 1x rotation (within first hour) is very bullish - indicates massive interest. Watch for continuation patterns.
Q: High rotation but price is dropping?
A: This is distribution - large holders are selling into demand. High rotation doesn't guarantee price direction, just volatility.
Q: Can I use this for swing trading?
A: The indicator resets daily, so it's designed for intraday use. You could note multi-day rotation patterns manually.

Gap & Go Day Trading Tool - Key Levels, Alerts & Setup GradingVisualizes Gap & Go setups with automatic gap detection, pre-market levels, and breakout signals. Shows: ✅ Gap % with quality rating (5%/10%/20%+) ✅ Pre-market high/low ✅ First candle range ✅ 50% gap fill target ✅ VWAP ✅ Relative volume. Includes setup grading system (A+ to C), entry signals on PM high breakouts, and 6 customizable alerts. Perfect for momentum day traders focusing on gapping stocks.
Full Description
█ OVERVIEW
The Gap & Go indicator automatically identifies and visualizes gap trading setups - one of the most popular momentum day trading strategies. When a stock gaps up significantly from the prior close, it often signals strong buying interest and potential for continuation moves.
This indicator displays all the key levels you need to trade gaps effectively, grades setup quality, and alerts you to breakout opportunities.
█ HOW IT WORKS
The indicator calculates the gap percentage between yesterday's close and today's open, then displays critical support/resistance levels that gap traders watch:
Gap Zone → The price range between prior close and gap open
Pre-Market High/Low → Key breakout and support levels from extended hours
First Candle Range → Opening range that often defines intraday direction
50% Gap Fill → Common retracement target and support level
VWAP → Institutional reference point
█ GAP CLASSIFICATION
Gaps are automatically classified by magnitude:
🔥 Qualifying Gap (5%+) → Meets minimum threshold for gap trading
🔥🔥 Strong Gap (10%+) → Ideal gap size for momentum plays
🔥🔥🔥 Monster Gap (20%+) → Exceptional move requiring extra attention
Background color changes based on gap quality for instant visual identification.
█ SETUP GRADING SYSTEM
The indicator grades each setup from A+ to C based on multiple factors:
- Gap magnitude (qualifying vs strong)
- Relative volume (2x+ vs 5x+ average)
- Price position relative to VWAP
A+ Setup (4-5 points) → High probability
A Setup (3 points) → Good setup
B Setup (2 points) → Moderate
C Setup (0-1 points) → Weak/avoid
█ ENTRY SIGNALS
Triangle signals appear when price breaks above key levels:
▲ Lime Triangle → Breaking above Pre-Market High
▲ Aqua Triangle → Breaking above First Candle High
Signals require volume confirmation by default (configurable).
█ KEY LEVELS DISPLAYED
- Prior Close (Orange) → Gap reference point
- Pre-Market High (Lime) → Primary breakout level
- Pre-Market Low (Red) → Support if gap fails
- First Candle Range (Aqua box) → Opening range breakout levels
- 50% Gap Fill (Yellow dotted) → Common support/target
- VWAP (Purple) → Institutional pivot

█ HOW TO USE
1. Scan for gapping stocks pre-market (use a scanner or watchlist)
2. Apply this indicator to candidates
3. Check the Setup Grade in the info table
4. Wait for price to consolidate near pre-market high
5. Enter on breakout above PM High with volume confirmation
6. Use 50% gap fill or PM Low as stop loss reference
7. Monitor VWAP - staying above is bullish
█ BEST PRACTICES
✓ Focus on A and A+ setups
✓ Require strong relative volume (5x+)
✓ Trade in the direction of the gap (long for gap ups)
✓ Watch for gap fill as potential support
✓ Be cautious if price falls below VWAP
✓ First 30-60 minutes typically have best momentum
█ TIMEFRAME RECOMMENDATIONS
- 1-minute: Scalping, precise entries
- 5-minute: Most common for gap trading (recommended)
- 15-minute: Swing entries, less noise
█ NOTES
- Pre-market levels require extended hours data enabled
- First candle range is based on the first regular market candle
- Works on stocks, ETFs, and futures
- Gaps down are detected but focus is on gap-up setups
█ DISCLAIMER
This indicator is for educational purposes only. Gap trading involves significant risk. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Always use proper risk management and never risk more than you can afford to lose.
