Archetype Zones, Defense Confirmation Overlay
Archetype Zones + Defense Confirmation Overlay (MST) v1.0
This indicator is a time-structure execution overlay built for fast intraday futures trading. It highlights a curated set of high-ROI market timing windows (MST / America/Denver) and applies lightweight “not-too-strict” logic to classify each window as a likely:
Driver (initiative / directional push)
Continuation (follow-through of the parent move)
Trap (liquidity sweep + stall / possible flip)
Rotation (VWAP churn + contraction / stand down conditions)
On top of the time zones, it includes a Defense Confirmation Overlay designed for 1–5 second execution, helping identify moments when price shows “defense behavior” aligned with the expected directional bias of the active zone.
What It Does
1) Time-Based Archetype Zones (MST)
The script shades key intraday windows with a configurable soft buffer (+/- minutes) so the user can anticipate action before/after the exact minute.
Each zone can output an expected directional lean using:
Displacement vs. window span
VWAP location
VWAP crossing count (chop filter)
Basic structure checks for continuation
Sweep/stall logic for trap detection
Churn + contraction logic for rotation regimes
2) Expected Direction Engine
When a zone is active, the indicator calculates the “expected direction” for that specific zone using the archetype logic.
This expected direction is used as the baseline for the Defense module, so defense markers are context-aware.
3) Defense Confirmation Overlay (Execution Layer)
Defense is intended to represent institutional-style protection or rejection inside an active zone.
It looks for:
Strong wick dominance (wick as a percentage of total candle span)
Close location in the top/bottom portion of the candle
Optional absorption highlight: volume spike plus compressed candle span (high volume, low range)
When conditions align with the zone’s expected direction, the script can show:
Defense wick markers (below-bar for buy defense, above-bar for sell defense)
Absorption highlight on bars showing absorption behavior
4) Micro Defense Box
When a defense event triggers, the script can draw a small “defense box” at the defended level with tick-padding.
The box extends right until invalidated (price closes through the box boundary).
This provides a clean visual reference for:
Defended price location
Invalidation threshold
Follow-through behavior after defense
5) Entry Permission Label
When Defense + Absorption occur together during an active zone, the script can print an “Entry Permission” label to highlight that multiple confirmations aligned.
Inputs and Customization
Zone buffer (+/- minutes)
Zone shading opacity
Toggle zone labels, defense markers, absorption highlighting, defense box, permission label
Adjustable “not too strict” archetype thresholds (designed for practical use, not curve-fitting)
Adjustable defense wick/close thresholds and absorption parameters
Notes and Disclaimer
This indicator does not predict the market with certainty.
It is designed to provide time-structure context plus execution confirmation, not standalone buy/sell signals.
It is best used alongside trend/bias tools (VWAP, structure, higher-timeframe levels, key session highs/lows).
Always test settings on your market and timeframe before live use.
