Volatility Wick Trap — Smart Reversal Engine

The Volatility Wick Trap — Smart Reversal Engine is a precision reversal detection tool designed for traders who rely on smart money footprints, volatility compression, and liquidity wick exhaustion to time entries near market turns.
💡 Core Components:
Volatility Squeeze Detection: Identifies candles where range compresses significantly compared to the 14-period average true range, highlighting potential breakout zones.
Liquidity Wick Exhaustion: Detects candles with dominant upper or lower wicks, signaling failed liquidity grabs or stop hunts.
Contextual EMA Filter: Uses a 21-period EMA to filter signals, improving accuracy by aligning with market structure bias.
🔍 How It Works:
Green diamond lines mark bullish hidden reversal zones.
Red diamond lines mark bearish hidden reversal traps.
These lines only appear when volatility compresses and wick traps are confirmed within the trend context.
✅ Clean. Minimal. Tactical.
Ideal for scalpers, swing traders, and smart money enthusiasts looking to fade emotional price spikes.
