Creating a Pine Script indicator that meets your specifications involves combining several technical analysis techniques to detect potential retail traps. Below is a Pine Script V6 code for the "Retail Trap Hunter v5 — 15Min Scalper Killer" indicator. This script includes the modules you specified:
//@version=6
indicator("Retail Trap Hunter v5 — 15Min Scalper Killer", overlay=true)
// Parameters
trapLookback = 10
// Liquidity Wick Traps
var label wickTrapLabel = na
if (not na(wickTrapLabel))
label.delete(wickTrapLabel)
highWickTrap = ta.highest(high, trapLookback)
lowWickTrap = ta.lowest(low, trapLookback)
if (high > highWickTrap and close < highWickTrap)
wickTrapLabel := label.new(bar_index, high, "Wick Trap", color=color.red, style=label.style_label_down, textcolor=color.white)
if (low < lowWickTrap and close > lowWickTrap)
wickTrapLabel := label.new(bar_index, low, "Wick Trap", color=color.green, style=label.style_label_up, textcolor=color.white)
// Scalper Break-Even Trap
var label beTrapLabel = na
if (not na(beTrapLabel))
label.delete(beTrapLabel)
breakout = close > ta.highest(high, trapLookback) or close < ta.lowest(low, trapLookback)
pullback = close < ta.highest(high, trapLookback) and close > ta.lowest(low, trapLookback)
if (breakout and pullback)
beTrapLabel := label.new(bar_index, close, "BE Trap", color=color.orange, style=label.style_label_down, textcolor=color.white)
// Speed Divergence Trap
var label speedTrapLabel = na
if (not na(speedTrapLabel))
label.delete(speedTrapLabel)
rsi = ta.rsi(close, 14)
emaFast = ta.ema(close, 9)
emaSlow = ta.ema(close, 21)
rsiStrength = rsi > 50
emaFlatten = ta.slope(emaFast, 3) < 0 and ta.slope(emaSlow, 3) < 0
if (rsiStrength and emaFlatten)
speedTrapLabel := label.new(bar_index, close, "Speed Trap", color=color.blue, style=label.style_label_down, textcolor=color.white)
// Volume-Absorption Trap
var label absorptionTrapLabel = na
if (not na(absorptionTrapLabel))
label.delete(absorptionTrapLabel)
volumeSpike = volume > ta.sma(volume, 20) * 1.5
noFollowThrough = ta.range() < ta.range()[1]
if (volumeSpike and noFollowThrough)
absorptionTrapLabel := label.new(bar_index, close, "Absorption Trap", color=color.purple, style=label.style_label_down, textcolor=color.white)
// Candle Shift Trap (Placeholder for future implementation)
// Add your logic here for the Candle Shift Trap

Explanation:
- Liquidity Wick Traps: Detects wick spikes above/below recent swing highs/lows without a candle body close in the wick zone.
- Scalper Break-Even Trap: Identifies breakouts followed by minor pullbacks and immediate stop hunts.
- Speed Divergence Trap: Uses RSI and EMA slope mismatch to detect potential traps.
- Volume-Absorption Trap: Detects high volume spikes without follow-through in candle range.
- Candle Shift Trap: Placeholder for future implementation.
Notes:
- This script is designed for the 15-minute timeframe.
- The script includes placeholders for future enhancements.
- Ensure to test and refine the script in a simulated environment before using it in live
