VCTOS - Volatility & Candle Transition Oscillator

Short Description (one-line summary)
Displays candle and volatility-based trend transitions using EMA relationships and adaptive dynamic thresholds.

Full Description

Overview
This VCTOS (Volatility & Candle Transition Oscillator System) indicator visualizes market structure, volatility, and transition phases using a custom oscillator-based candle model.
Its purpose is to provide contextual insight into pressure, strength, and loss of momentum, not to predict future price movement and not to provide trading signals.

What Makes This Script Distinct
The indicator is designed to make relative market strength observable:
• Taller candles reflect higher volatility
• Shorter candles reflect reduced activity
• Candles extending far beyond the threshold suggest stronger conditions
• Compression toward the threshold suggests weakening pressure

While the base calculations use EMA-derived components, the indicator’s distinguishing feature is its adaptive advanced threshold logic, which frames volatility in a consistent and measurable way across different conditions.

How to Read It
One way to interpret the oscillator candles is by comparing them against price to observe divergence, compression, and loss of momentum.

To support this, candles are labeled with incrementing numbers.
These numbers do not represent signals, probabilities, or trade instructions. They simply indicate how long a sequence has been developing.

The label colors reflect transition phases:
• Blue – early phase
• Orange – transition building
• Green – late phase

A green label indicates that a sequence has matured, not that a transition will occur. Interpreting whether this information is meaningful depends on broader market context.

Oscillator Candle Representation
Price action is transformed into candles plotted around a zero line in oscillator form.
Each candle reflects relative movement and is color-coded based on its current state:
• Green – upward pressure
• Orange – range or transitional behavior
• Red – downward pressure

Because absolute market tops and bottoms cannot be known in advance, the oscillator format focuses on relative extremes and structural behavior, rather than fixed price levels.

Dynamic Candle Threshold Line

A dotted Candle Threshold Line is plotted above and below the oscillator candles.
This line is not a simple average. It dynamically adapts using the most relevant extreme values observed over time, allowing it to adjust automatically to changing volatility conditions.

The threshold line serves as a reference zone where market conditions may become stretched. It is a dynamic indication only and should not be interpreted as a reversal level or predictive boundary.

Volatility Line
The indicator includes a Volatility Line representing directional pressure:
• Above zero – downward pressure
• Below zero – upward pressure
Short colored threshold lines appear on the indicator right areas where pressure threshold was in the past. These segments are contextual references, not triggers.

The slope and magnitude of the volatility line are emphasized, as they reflect increasing or decreasing pressure rather than binary conditions.

Timeframes and Assets
The indicator is designed to work on any asset and any timeframe.
The active timeframe is displayed in the top-right corner of the chart.
Using multiple timeframes can help place short-term structure within broader market context.

Usage Notes

• This indicator does not generate trade entries, exit signals, or financial recommendations.
• This indicator does not predict future price movement
• Colored candles and labels highlight contextual phases within market behavior and should not be interpreted as buy or sell signals.
• Zero-line interactions in the volatility line visually mark potential phase transitions, not confirmed trend changes.
• All visuals are intended for analytical and educational purposes only.
• Users are encouraged to integrate this indicator within their own analytical or confirmation framework.
• Numerical labels are iterative and do not carry standalone predictive meaning.
• The distance between the oscillator candles, the candle threshold line, and the volatility threshold levels can help visualize relative market strength and pressure, but should not be interpreted as a forecast or signal.
The indicator is intended as a market-structure and volatility visualization tool, not as a standalone decision system.
