Liqudation HeatMap [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
An advanced liquidity visualization tool that plots horizontal heat zones to highlight where potential liquidations and volume clusters are most likely hiding beneath price action.
Liqudation HeatMap scans historical price movements for local highs and lows with elevated volume or candle range. It then draws dynamic heatmap boxes—shaded from lime (low interest) to yellow (high interest)—revealing potential zones of trapped positions or stop clusters. A vertical scale on the right shows you the relative strength of volume behind each level, from 0 to the highest detected.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Maps areas of potential liquidity using volume or candle range (if volume is unavailable).
Identifies swing highs/lows (pivots) and extends heatmap boxes outward from these levels. Colors each zone based on the relative strength of volume concentration.
Fades or removes zones once price crosses their midpoints, simulating the idea of liquidity being “consumed.”
Displays a live vertical scale that shows the volume range for quick reference.
🔵 FEATURES
Dynamic Heatmap Zones:
Draws few boxes above and after pivot highs and below pivot lows, each shaded based on volume concentration.
Smart Coloring System:
Uses a gradient from lime (low) to yellow (high) to visually distinguish between weak and strong liquidity zones.
Adaptive ATR Widths:
Automatically adjusts zone thickness based on volatility (ATR), scaling intelligently across timeframes.
Liquidity Consumption Logic:
Zones are stope extending once price interacts with them—mimicking the behavior of real liquidation sweeps.
Volume Scale Legend:
A real-time scale is plotted on the right side, showing the min-max range of volume used for heat calculations.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Look for thick yellow zones to identify areas of concentrated stop losses or liquidation triggers.
Use these levels to anticipate mean reversion points or high-volatility zones.
Combine with your trend or structure tools to trade into or fade these liquidity pools.
On lower timeframes, use this tool to confirm entries around sweeps or deviations.
Use the right-side scale to compare relative zone strength instantly.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Liqudation HeatMap is a powerful visualization tool that uncovers where liquidity likely resides on the chart. By highlighting hidden traps and reactive levels in real-time, it gives traders a significant edge when it comes to spotting stop hunts, mean reversions, and areas of institutional interest. Whether you’re scalping or swing trading, this heatmap provides unmatched context on the market’s hidden intent.

Impulse Zones | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Impulse Zones indicator, a powerful tool designed to identify significant price movements accompanied by strong volume, highlighting potential areas of support and resistance. These Impulse Zones can offer valuable insights into market momentum and potential reversal or continuation points. For more information about the process, please check the "HOW DOES IT WORK ?" section.
Impulse Zones Features :
Dynamic Zone Creation : Automatically identifies and plots potential supply and demand zones based on significant price impulses and volume spikes.
Customizable Settings : Allows you to adjust the sensitivity of zone detection based on your trading style and market conditions.
Retests and Breakouts : Clearly marks instances where price retests or breaks through established Impulse Zones, providing potential entry or exit signals.
Alerts : You can set alerts for Bullish & Bearish Impulse Zone detection and their retests.
🚩 UNIQUENESS
Our Impulse Zones indicator stands out by combining both price action (impulsive moves) and volume confirmation to define significant zones. Unlike simple support and resistance indicators, it emphasizes the strength behind price movements, potentially filtering out less significant levels. The inclusion of retest and breakout visuals directly on the chart provides immediate context for potential trading opportunities. The user can also set up alerts for freshly detected Impulse Zones & the retests of them.
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The indicator identifies bars where the price range (high - low) is significantly larger than the average true range (ATR), indicating a strong price movement. The Size Sensitivity input allows you to control how large this impulse needs to be relative to the ATR.
Simultaneously, it checks if the volume on the impulse bar is significantly higher than the average volume. The Volume Sensitivity input governs this threshold.
When both the price impulse and volume confirmation criteria are met, an Impulse Zone is created in the corresponding direction. The high and low of the impulse bar define the initial boundaries of the zone. Zones are extended forward in time to remain relevant. The indicator manages the number of active zones to maintain chart clarity and can remove zones that haven't been touched for a specified period. The indicator monitors price action within and around established zones.
A retest is identified when the price touches a zone and then moves away. A break occurs when the price closes beyond the invalidation point of a zone. Keep in mind that if "Show Historic Zones" setting is disabled, you will not see break labels as their zones will be removed from the chart.
The detection of Impulse Zones are immediate signs of significant buying or selling pressure entering the market. These zones represent areas where a strong imbalance between buyers and sellers has led to a rapid price movement accompanied by high volume. Bullish Impulse Zones act as a possible future support zone, and Bearish Impulse Zones act as a possible future resistance zone. Retests of the zones suggest a strong potential movement in the corresponding direction.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Show Historic Zones: If enabled, invalidated or expired Impulse Zones will remain visible on the chart.
2. Impulse Zones
Invalidation Method: Determines which part of the candle (Wick or Close) is used to invalidate a zone break.
Size Sensitivity: Controls the required size of the impulse bar relative to the ATR for a zone to be detected. Higher values may identify fewer, larger zones. Lower values may detect more, smaller zones.
Volume Sensitivity: Controls the required volume of the impulse bar relative to the average volume for a zone to be detected. Higher values require more significant volume.
Labels: Toggles the display of "IZ" labels on the identified zones.
Retests: Enables the visual highlighting of retests on the zones.
Breaks: Enables the visual highlighting of zone breaks.
Rube Goldberg Top/Bottom Finder [theUltimator5]This is what I call the Rube Goldberg Top and Bottom Finder. It is an overly complex method of plotting a simple buy or sell label on a chart.
I utilize several standard TA techniques along with several of my own to try and locate ideal Buy/Sell conditions. I came up with the name because there are way too many conditional variables to come up with a single buy or sell condition, when most standard indicators use simple crossovers or levels.
There are two unique triggers that are calculated using completely independent techniques. If both triggers turn true within a small timeframe between each other, the buy/sell trigger turns true and plots a "buy" or "sell" label on the chart.
This indicator was designed to be fully functioning out of the box and can be customized only if the user wishes to. It is effective on all timeframes, but longer timeframes (daily +) may require signal length adjustment for best results.
imgur.com
The signals used in the leading trigger are as follows:
(1)RSI
The user can select among any of the following moving averages (base is EMA) (#3) , and have an RSI generated at a user defined length (base is 14). (#4)
SMA, EMA, DEMA, TEMA, WMA, VWMA, SMMA, HMA, LSMA, ALMA
The user can select whether or not the RSI is filtered with the following options:
None, Kalman, Double EMA, ALMA
The filter conditions are hard coded to minimize the amount of selections that the user is required to make to reduce the user interface complexity.
The user can define overbought (base 70) and oversold (base 30) conditions. (#2)
When the RSI crosses above or below the threshold values, the plot will turn red. This creates condition 1 of the leading trigger.
(2) ADX and DI
This portion of the indicator is a derivative of my ADX Divergence and Gap Monitor indicator.
This technique looks at the ADX value as well as for spikes in either +DI or -DI for large divergences. When the ADX reaches a certain threshold and also outpaces a preset ADX moving average, this creates condition 2 of the leading trigger.
There is an additional built-in functionality in this portion of the indicator that looks for gaps. It triggers when the ADX is below a certain threshold value and either the +DI or -DI spike above a certain threshold value, indicating a sudden gap in price after a period of low volatility.
The user can set whether or nor to show when a gap appears on the chart or as a label on the plot below the chart (disabled by default) . If the user chooses to overlay gaps on the chart, it creates a horizontal fill showing the starting point of the gap. The theory here is that the price will return at some point in the near future to the starting point of the gap.
imgur.com
(3) DI based Multi-Symbol reference and divergence
Part of the script computes both the +DI (positive directional index) and -DI (negative directional index) for the currently selected chart symbol and three reference symbols.
The averaged directional move of the reference symbols are compared to the current ticker on your chart and if the divergence exceeds a certain threshold, then the third condition of the trigger is met.
The components that are referenced are based on what stock/chart you are looking at. The script automatically detects if you are looking at a crypto, and uses a user selectable toggle between Large Cap or Small Cap. (#1) The threshold levels are determined by the asset type and market cap.
The leading trigger highlights under several conditions:
1) All (3) portions of the trigger result in true simultaneously
OR
2) Any of triggers 2 or 3 reach a certain threshold that indicates extreme market/price divergence as well as trigger 1 being overbought or oversold.
AND
3) If the trigger didn't highlight
For the lagging part of the trigger:
The lagging trigger is used as a confirmation after the leading trigger to indicate a possible optimized entry/exit point. It can also be used by itself, as well as the leading indicator.
The lagging indicator utilizes the parabolic Stop And Reverse (SAR). It utilizes the RSI length that is defined in portion 1 of the leading trigger as well as the overbought and oversold thresholds. I have found excellent results in catching reversals because it catches rate-of-change events rather than price reversals alone.
imgur.com
When both the leading triggers FOLLOWED BY the lagging trigger result in true within a user defined timeframe, then the buy or sell trigger results in true, plotting a label on the chart.
All portions of the leading and lagging indicators can be toggled on or off, but most of them are toggled off by default in order to reduce noise on the plot.
imgur.com
The leading, lagging, and buy/sell triggers each have built-in alerts that can be toggled on or off in the alert menu.
I have an optional built-in toggle to show green or red dots on the RSI line using two separate RSI lengths that are amplified and plot based on RSI divergence and strength. This can be used as a visual confirmation (or rejection) against the chart overlay plots.

This indicator is not a strategy, so there are no built-in exits or stop losses.
Stop Cascade Detector Stop Cascade Detector (DAFE)
Unlock the Hidden Triggers of Market Momentum!
The Stop Cascade Detector (Bull & Bear, Info Bubble) is a next-generation tool designed for traders who want to see what the crowd can’t: the precise moments when clusters of stop orders are being triggered, unleashing explosive moves in either direction. The reason for this is traders taking there position too early. We on the other hand will take our positions once the less informed traders have been liquidated.
What Makes This Indicator Unique?
Not Just Another Volatility Tool:
This script doesn’t just measure volatility or volume. It detects the chain reactions that occur when price and volume spikes combine to trigger stop-loss clusters—events that often precede the most powerful surges and reversals in any market.
Directional Intelligence:
Unlike generic “spike” detectors, this tool distinguishes between bullish stop cascades (green, above the bar) and bearish stop cascades (red, below the bar), giving you instant clarity on which side of the market is being liquidated.
Visual Precision:
Each event is marked with a color-coded info bubble and a triangle, clearly separated from the price bars for maximum readability. No more guessing where the action is—see it, trade it, and stay ahead.
Universal Application:
Works on any asset, any timeframe, and in any market—futures, stocks, crypto, forex. If there are stops, this indicator will find the cascade.
What makes it work?
Momentum + Volume Spike:
The detector identifies bars where both price momentum and volume are simultaneously extreme (using Z-scores). This combination is a classic signature of stop runs and forced liquidations.
Bull & Bear Detection:
Bull Stop Cascade : Price plunges downward with a volume spike—likely longs getting stopped out.
Bear Stop Cascade: Price surges upward with a volume spike—likely shorts getting stopped out.
Info Bubbles:
Each event is labeled with the exact Z-scores for momentum and volume, so you can gauge the intensity of the cascade at a glance.
What will it do for you?
Front-Run the Crowd:
Most traders react after the move. This tool helps you spot the cause of the move—giving you a tactical edge to fade exhaustion, ride momentum, or avoid getting trapped.
Perfect for Scalpers, Day Traders, and Swing Traders:
Whether you’re looking for high-probability reversals or want to ride the wave, knowing when stops are being triggered is a game-changer.
No More Blind Spots:
Stop cascades are the hidden fuel behind many of the market’s biggest moves. Now you can see them in real time.
How to Use
Red Bubble Above Bar: Bear stop cascade detected—watch for possible trend acceleration or reversal.
Green Bubble Below Bar: Bull stop cascade detected—watch for possible trend acceleration or reversal.
Combine with Your Strategy : Use as a confirmation tool, a reversal signal, or a filter for high-volatility environments. Level up your trading. See the market’s hidden triggers.
Stop Cascade Detector: Because the real edge is knowing what sets the market on fire.

VWAP Adaptive (RelVol-Adjusted)This indicator provides an Adaptive VWAP that adjusts volume weighting using RelVol (Relative Volume at Time), offering a more accurate and context-aware price reference during sessions with irregular volume behavior.
Classic VWAP calculates the average price weighted by raw volume, without considering the time of day. This becomes a serious limitation during major market events such as CPI releases, FOMC announcements, NFP, or large-cap earnings. These events often trigger massive volume spikes within one or two candles. As a result, the classic VWAP gets pulled toward those extreme prices and becomes permanently skewed for the rest of the session.
In such conditions, classic VWAP becomes unreliable. It no longer reflects fair value and often misleads traders relying on it for dynamic support, resistance, or reversion signals.
This Adaptive VWAP improves on that by using RelVol, which compares the current volume to the average volume seen at the same time over previous sessions. It gives more weight to price when volume is typical for that moment, and adjusts the influence when volume is statistically abnormal. This reduces the impact of isolated volume spikes and stabilizes the VWAP path, even in high-volatility environments.
For example, on SPY 1-minute or 5-minute charts during a CPI release, a massive spike in volume and price can occur within a single candle. Classic VWAP will immediately anchor itself to that spike. Adaptive VWAP using RelVol softens that effect and maintains a more realistic trajectory.
Key features:
- Adaptive VWAP weighted by time-adjusted Relative Volume (RelVol)
- Designed to maintain VWAP reliability during macroeconomic events
- Flexible anchoring: Session, Week, Month, Quarter, Earnings, etc.
- Optional display of Classic VWAP for comparison
- Up to 3 customizable deviation bands (standard deviation or percentage)
This tool is ideal for intraday traders who need a VWAP that remains usable and unbiased, even in volatile sessions. It adds robustness to VWAP-based strategies by incorporating time-sensitive volume normalization.
Opening Range Retest█ OVERVIEW
This indicator shows the opening range as a box. It also draws markers and triggers alerts when the opening range is retested. The opening range time is configurable, as is the period of time that must elapse before each return to the opening range is considered a retest.
█ FEATURES
Opening range time configurable in bars or minutes
Configurable "resting" period between the end of the opening range or since the last retest before a new retest is considered valid
Configurable tolerance so that a retest can trigger sooner
Active time range can be used to filter alerts and markers to a specific time window
Visual box showing the opening range, which can be optionally limited to the above-mentioned active time window
Well-documented, high-quality, open-source code for those interested
█ CONCEPTS
This indicator can be used for an opening range retest trading strategy, where long or short positions are taken on the retest of the opening range.
The opening range can be user-configured, so it is suitable for use with any opening range time period (e.g., 1-min, 5-min, 15-min, etc.).
The markers and alerts are equivalent, in the sense that whenever a marker appears, an alert will also trigger (assuming the user has set an alert up).
The alert active time range is simply used as a filter for markers and alerts, meaning that these will not draw or trigger outside of the specified time range.
█ LIMITATIONS
The indicator is intended for equities that have a highly active regular market open. For other security types, it will draw the opening range box from whenever TradingView specifies the market open time.
Enigma Sniper 369The "Enigma Sniper 369" is a custom-built Pine Script indicator designed for TradingView, tailored specifically for forex traders seeking high-probability entries during high-volatility market sessions.
Unlike generic trend-following or scalping tools, this indicator uniquely combines session-based "kill zones" (London and US sessions), momentum-based candle analysis, and an optional EMA trend filter to pinpoint liquidity grabs and reversal opportunities.
Its originality lies in its focus on liquidity hunting—identifying levels where stop losses are likely clustered (around swing highs/lows and wick midpoints)—and providing visual entry zones that are dynamically removed once price breaches them, reducing clutter and focusing on actionable signals.
The name "369" reflects the structured approach of three key components (session timing, candle logic, and trend filter) working in harmony to snipe precise entries.
What It Does
"Enigma Sniper 369" identifies potential buy and sell opportunities by drawing two types of horizontal lines on the chart during user-defined London and US
session kill zones:
Solid Lines: Mark the swing low (for buys) or swing high (for sells) of a trigger candle, indicating a potential entry point where stop losses might be clustered.
Dotted Lines: Mark the 50% level of the candle’s wick (lower wick for buys, upper wick for sells), serving as a secondary confirmation zone for entries or tighter stop-loss placement.
These lines are plotted only when specific candle conditions are met within the kill zones, and they are automatically deleted once the price crosses them, signaling that the liquidity at that level has likely been grabbed. The indicator also includes an optional EMA filter to ensure trades align with the broader trend, reducing false signals in choppy markets.
How It Works
The indicator’s logic is built on a multi-layered approach:
Kill Zone Timing: Trades are only considered during user-defined London and US session hours (e.g., London from 02:00 to 12:00 UTC, as seen in the screenshots). These sessions are known for high volatility and liquidity, making them ideal for capturing institutional moves.
Candle-Based Momentum Logic:
Buy Signal: A candle must close above its midpoint (indicating bullish momentum) and have a lower low than the previous candle (suggesting a potential liquidity grab below the previous swing low). This is expressed as close > (high + low) / 2 and low < low .
Sell Signal: A candle must close below its midpoint (bearish momentum) and have a higher high than the previous candle (indicating a potential liquidity grab above the previous swing high), expressed as close < (high + low) / 2 and high > high .
These conditions ensure the indicator targets candles that break recent structure to hunt stop losses while showing directional momentum.
Optional EMA Filter: A 50-period EMA (customizable) can be enabled to filter signals based on trend direction.
Buy signals are only generated if the EMA is trending upward (ema_value > ema_value ), and sell signals require a downward EMA trend (ema_value < ema_value ). This reduces noise by aligning entries with the broader market trend.
Liquidity Levels and Deletion Logic:
For a buy signal, a solid green line is drawn at the candle’s low, and a dotted green line at the 50% level of the lower wick (from the candle body’s bottom to the low).
For a sell signal, a solid red line is drawn at the candle’s high, and a dotted red line at the 50% level of the upper wick (from the body’s top to the high).
These lines extend to the right until the price crosses them, at which point they are deleted, indicating the liquidity at that level has been taken (e.g., stop losses triggered).
Alerts: The indicator includes alert conditions for buy and sell signals, notifying traders when a new setup is identified.
Underlying Concepts
The indicator is grounded in the concept of liquidity hunting, a strategy often employed by institutional traders. Markets frequently move to levels where stop losses are clustered—typically just beyond swing highs or lows—before reversing in the opposite direction. The "Enigma Sniper 369" targets these moves by identifying candles that break structure (e.g., a lower low or higher high) during high-volatility sessions, suggesting a potential sweep of stop losses. The 50% wick level acts as a secondary confirmation, as this midpoint often represents a zone where tighter stop losses are placed by retail traders. The optional EMA filter adds a trend-following element, ensuring entries are taken in the direction of the broader market momentum, which is particularly useful on lower timeframes like the 15-minute chart shown in the screenshots.
How to Use It
Here’s a step-by-step guide based on the provided usage example on the GBP/USD 15-minute chart:
Setup the Indicator: Add "Enigma Sniper 369" to your TradingView chart. Adjust the London and US session hours to match your timezone (e.g., London from 02:00 to 12:00 UTC, US from 13:00 to 22:00 UTC). Customize the EMA period (default 50) and line styles/colors if desired.
Identify Kill Zones: The indicator highlights the London session in light green and the US session in light purple, as seen in the screenshots. Focus on these periods for signals, as they are the most volatile and likely to produce liquidity grabs.
Wait for a Signal: Look for solid and dotted lines to appear during the kill zones:
Buy Setup: A solid green line at the swing low and a dotted green line at the 50% lower wick level indicate a potential buy. This suggests the market may have grabbed liquidity below the swing low and is now poised to move higher.
Sell Setup: A solid red line at the swing high and a dotted red line at the 50% upper wick level indicate a potential sell, suggesting liquidity was taken above the swing high.
Place Your Trade:
For a buy, set a buy limit order at the dotted green line (50% wick level), as this is a more conservative entry point. Place your stop loss just below the solid green line (swing low) to cover the full swing. For example, in the screenshots, the market retraces to the dotted line at 1.32980 after a liquidity grab below the swing low, triggering a buy limit order.
For a sell, set a sell limit order at the dotted red line, with a stop loss just above the solid red line.
Monitor Price Action: Once the price crosses a line, it is deleted, indicating the liquidity at that level has been taken. In the screenshots, after the buy limit is triggered, the market moves higher, confirming the setup. The caption notes, “The market returns and tags us in long with a buy limit,” highlighting this retracement strategy.
Additional Context: Use the indicator to identify liquidity levels that may be targeted later. For example, the screenshot notes, “If a new session is about to open I will wait for the grab liquidity to go long,” showing how the indicator can be used to anticipate future moves at session opens (e.g., London open at 1.32980).
Risk Management: Always set a stop loss below the swing low (for buys) or above the swing high (for sells) to protect against adverse moves. The 50% wick level helps tighten entries, improving the risk-reward ratio.
Practical Example
On the GBP/USD 15-minute chart, during the London session (02:00 UTC), the indicator identifies a buy setup with a solid green line at 1.32901 (swing low) and a dotted green line at 1.32980 (50% wick level). The market initially dips below the swing low, grabbing liquidity, then retraces to the dotted line, triggering a buy limit order. The price subsequently rises to 1.33404, yielding a profitable trade. The user notes, “The logic is in the last candle it provides new level to go long,” emphasizing the indicator’s ability to identify fresh levels after a liquidity sweep.
Customization Tips
Adjust the EMA period to suit your timeframe (e.g., a shorter period like 20 for faster signals on lower timeframes).
Modify the session hours to align with your broker’s timezone or specific market conditions.
Use the alert feature to get notified of new setups without constantly monitoring the chart.
Why It’s Useful for Traders
The "Enigma Sniper 369" stands out by combining session timing, momentum-based candle analysis, and liquidity hunting into a single tool. It provides clear, actionable levels for entries and stop losses, removes invalid signals dynamically, and aligns trades with high-probability market conditions. Whether you’re a scalper looking for quick moves during London open or a swing trader targeting session-based reversals, this indicator offers a structured, data-driven approach to trading.

IU Three Line Strike Candlestick PatternIU Three Line Strike Candlestick Pattern
This indicator identifies the Three Line Strike candlestick pattern — a rare yet powerful 4-bar reversal setup that captures exhaustion and momentum shifts at the end of strong trends.
Pattern Logic:
The Three Line Strike is a 4-candle pattern that typically signals a sharp reversal after a sustained directional move. This script detects both bullish and bearish variations using strict criteria to ensure accuracy.
Bullish Three Line Strike:
* Previous three candles must be bearish (red)
* Each of these candles must close progressively lower (indicating a strong downtrend)
* The current candle must:
* Be bullish (green)
* Open below the prior close
* Completely engulf the previous three candles by closing above the first candle's open
* And make a higher high than the last 3 bars — confirming a strong reversal
* Once confirmed, a green shaded box is drawn around the 4-bar zone to highlight the pattern
Bearish Three Line Strike:
* Previous three candles must be bullish (green)
* Each must close progressively higher (indicating a strong uptrend)
* The current candle must:
* Be bearish (red)
* Open above the prior close
* Completely engulf the prior three candles by closing below the first candle's open
* And make a lower low than the last 3 bars — confirming downside strength
* A red shaded box is plotted around the 4-bar formation to emphasize the reversal zone
Why this is unique:
Most candlestick tools focus on 1–2 bar patterns. The Three Line Strike goes a step further by combining trend exhaustion (3 same-colored candles) with a full reversal engulfing candle. This pattern is both rare and highly expressive of sentiment shift, making it a standout signal for discretionary and algorithmic traders alike.
How users can benefit:
* High-probability setups: Filters out weak signals using multi-bar confirmation logic
* Clear visual cues: Dynamic shaded boxes and labels make spotting reversals effortless
* Cross-timeframe compatible: Works on intraday and higher timeframes across all markets
* Real-time alerts: Get notified instantly when a bullish or bearish setup forms
This indicator is a valuable addition for traders who want to capture key reversals backed by strong multi-bar price action logic. Whether you are a price action purist or a pattern-based strategist, the IU Three Line Strike gives you a reliable edge.

Kinetic Price Momentum Oscillator📈 Kinetic Price Momentum Oscillator (Sri-PMO)
Author's Note:
This script is an educational and custom-adapted visualization based on the concept of the Price Momentum Oscillator (PMO). It is not a direct clone of any proprietary implementation, and it introduces enhancements such as timeframe sensitivity, customizable smoothings, multi-timeframe analysis, and visual trend meters.
🔍 Overview:
The Kinetic Price Momentum Oscillator (Kinetic-PMO) is a dynamic momentum indicator that analyzes price rate of change smoothed with dual exponential moving averages. It offers a clear view of momentum trends across multiple timeframes—the chart's current timeframe, the 1-hour timeframe, and the 1-day timeframe. It includes optional visual cues for zero-line crossovers, trend ribbon fills, and a daily trend meter.
🧮 Calculation Logic:
At its core, Kinetic-PMO calculates momentum by:
Measuring Rate of Change (ROC) over 1 bar.
Applying double EMA smoothing:
The first smoothing (len1) smooths the ROC.
The second smoothing (len2) smooths the result further.
This produces the main KPMO Line.
A third EMA (sigLen) is applied to the KPMO line to produce the Signal Line.
The formula includes a multiplier of 10 to scale values.

Trend Volatility Index (TVI)Trend Volatility Index (TVI)
A robust nonparametric oscillator for structural trend volatility detection
⸻
What is this?
TVI is a volatility oscillator designed to measure the strength and emergence of price trends using nonparametric statistics.
It calculates a U-statistic based on the Gini mean difference across multiple simple moving averages.
This allows for objective, robust, and unbiased quantification of trend volatility in tick-scale values.
⸻
What can it do?
• Quantify trend strength as a continuous value aligned with tick price scale
• Detect trend breakouts and volatility expansions
• Identify range-bound market states
• Detect early signs of new trends with minimal lag
⸻
What can’t it do?
• Predict future price levels
• Predict trend direction before confirmation
⸻
How it works
TVI computes a nonparametric dispersion metric (Gini mean difference) from multiple SMAs of different lengths.
As this metric shares the same dimension as price ticks, it can be directly interpreted on the chart as a volatility gauge.
The output is plotted using candlestick-style charts to enhance visibility of change rate and trend behavior.
⸻
Disclaimer
TVI does not predict price. It is a structural indicator designed to support discretionary judgment.
Trading carries inherent risk, and this tool does not guarantee profitability. Use at your own discretion.
⸻
Innovation
This indicator introduces a novel approach to trend volatility by applying U-statistics over time series
to produce a nonparametric, unbiased, and robust estimate of structural volatility.

Multi-Timeframe S&R Zones (Shaded)This indicator automatically plots support and resistance zones based on recent price action across multiple timeframes:
🟥 Daily
🟧 4-Hour
🟨 1-Hour
🟩 30-Minute
🟦 5-Minute
Each zone is color-coded by timeframe and represented as a shaded region instead of a hard line, giving you a clearer and more dynamic view of key market levels. The zones are calculated from recent swing highs (resistance) and swing lows (support), and each zone spans ±5 pips for precision.
Only the most recent levels are displayed—up to 3 per timeframe—and are limited to the last 48 hours to avoid chart clutter and keep your workspace clean.
✅ Key Benefits:
Price Action Based: Zones are drawn from actual market structure (swings), not arbitrary levels.
Multi-Timeframe Clarity: View confluence across major intraday and higher timeframes at a glance.
Color-Coded Zones: Instantly distinguish between timeframes using intuitive colour coordination.
Clean Charts: Only shows the latest relevant levels, automatically expires old zones beyond 48 hours.
Flexible & Lightweight: Built for Tradingview Essential; optimized for performance.
Bloomberg Financial Conditions Index (Proxy)The Bloomberg Financial Conditions Index (BFCI): A Proxy Implementation
Financial conditions indices (FCIs) have become essential tools for economists, policymakers, and market participants seeking to quantify and monitor the overall state of financial markets. Among these measures, the Bloomberg Financial Conditions Index (BFCI) has emerged as a particularly influential metric. Originally developed by Bloomberg L.P., the BFCI provides a comprehensive assessment of stress or ease in financial markets by aggregating various market-based indicators into a single, standardized value (Hatzius et al., 2010).
The original Bloomberg Financial Conditions Index synthesizes approximately 50 different financial market variables, including money market indicators, bond market spreads, equity market valuations, and volatility measures. These variables are normalized using a Z-score methodology, weighted according to their relative importance to overall financial conditions, and then aggregated to produce a composite index (Carlson et al., 2014). The resulting measure is centered around zero, with positive values indicating accommodative financial conditions and negative values representing tighter conditions relative to historical norms.
As Angelopoulou et al. (2014) note, financial conditions indices like the BFCI serve as forward-looking indicators that can signal potential economic developments before they manifest in traditional macroeconomic data. Research by Adrian et al. (2019) demonstrates that deteriorating financial conditions, as measured by indices such as the BFCI, often precede economic downturns by several months, making these indices valuable tools for predicting changes in economic activity.
Proxy Implementation Approach
The implementation presented in this Pine Script indicator represents a proxy of the original Bloomberg Financial Conditions Index, attempting to capture its essential features while acknowledging several significant constraints. Most critically, while the original BFCI incorporates approximately 50 financial variables, this proxy version utilizes only six key market components due to data accessibility limitations within the TradingView platform.
These components include:
Equity market performance (using SPY as a proxy for S&P 500)
Bond market yields (using TLT as a proxy for 20+ year Treasury yields)
Credit spreads (using the ratio between LQD and HYG as a proxy for investment-grade to high-yield spreads)
Market volatility (using VIX directly)
Short-term liquidity conditions (using SHY relative to equity prices as a proxy)
Each component is transformed into a Z-score based on log returns, weighted according to approximated importance (with weights derived from literature on financial conditions indices by Brave and Butters, 2011), and aggregated into a composite measure.
Differences from the Original BFCI
The methodology employed in this proxy differs from the original BFCI in several important ways. First, the variable selection is necessarily limited compared to Bloomberg's comprehensive approach. Second, the proxy relies on ETFs and publicly available indices rather than direct market rates and spreads used in the original. Third, the weighting scheme, while informed by academic literature, is simplified compared to Bloomberg's proprietary methodology, which may employ more sophisticated statistical techniques such as principal component analysis (Kliesen et al., 2012).
These differences mean that while the proxy BFCI captures the general direction and magnitude of financial conditions, it may not perfectly replicate the precision or sensitivity of the original index. As Aramonte et al. (2013) suggest, simplified proxies of financial conditions indices typically capture broad movements in financial conditions but may miss nuanced shifts in specific market segments that more comprehensive indices detect.
Practical Applications and Limitations
Despite these limitations, research by Arregui et al. (2018) indicates that even simplified financial conditions indices constructed from a limited set of variables can provide valuable signals about market stress and future economic activity. The proxy BFCI implemented here still offers significant insight into the relative ease or tightness of financial conditions, particularly during periods of market stress when correlations among financial variables tend to increase (Rey, 2015).
In practical applications, users should interpret this proxy BFCI as a directional indicator rather than an exact replication of Bloomberg's proprietary index. When the index moves substantially into negative territory, it suggests deteriorating financial conditions that may precede economic weakness. Conversely, strongly positive readings indicate unusually accommodative financial conditions that might support economic expansion but potentially also signal excessive risk-taking behavior in markets (López-Salido et al., 2017).
The visual implementation employs a color gradient system that enhances interpretation, with blue representing neutral conditions, green indicating accommodative conditions, and red signaling tightening conditions—a design choice informed by research on optimal data visualization in financial contexts (Few, 2009).
