Volume Threshold Levels - Crypto LidyaVolume Threshold Levels – Crypto Lidya Understanding volume behavior is one of the most effective ways to detect trend changes, manipulation candles, aggressive entries, and institutional activity. Volume Threshold Levels (VTL) not only displays raw volume but also calculates dynamic volume thresholds (2x – 3x – 4x) based on the moving average, allowing you to identify statistically meaningful volume anomalies with precision. 📌 1. Volume Columns The indicator plots each bar’s volume using traditional column-style visualization. Green: Bullish candle Red: Bearish candle Gray: Neutral candle This helps traders clearly understand the relationship between price and volume. 📌 2. Average Volume Area VTL offers two types of moving averages for volume: SMA (Simple Moving Average) EMA (Exponential Moving Average) The average volume is drawn as a soft yellow area across the chart. This area acts as the baseline for normal volume levels. 📌 3. Dynamic Threshold Lines (2x / 3x / 4x) The script calculates and displays multipliers of the average volume: 2x Average 3x Average 4x Average These levels appear as bright yellow lines. They are extremely useful for identifying breakouts, traps, and aggressive institutional entries. 📌 4. Volume Spike Detection (Alerts) VTL identifies upward crossovers where volume breaks above key levels: 1x Volume Signal 2x Volume Signal 3x Volume Signal 4x Volume Signal These can be used directly as TradingView alerts. This allows you to automate detection of high-impact volume spikes. 📌 5. Use Cases The indicator performs exceptionally well in: Breakout confirmation Liquidity sweep analysis Detecting manipulation candles Combining with OB, FVG, or other SMC structures Scalping and low-timeframe aggressive volume interpretation Algorithmic filters for volume-based strategies 📌 6. Summary VTL delivers: ✔ Dynamic average volume baseline ✔ Clear 2x–3x–4x volume thresholds ✔ Accurate detection of upside volume explosions ✔ A strong tool for traders who rely on volume confirmation Completely open-source and ready to be extended.

Check Current Strength • Look at the histogram height and color • Read the exact number in the info panel • Note the status label (STRONG BULL, WEAK BEAR, etc.) • Higher absolute value = stronger trend 2. Watch For Reversals • Triangle markers appear when strength crosses zero • 🟢 Green triangle up = Bullish reversal signal • 🔴 Red triangle down = Bearish reversal signal • These mark potential trend changes 3. Monitor Multi-Timeframe Alignment • Check if all timeframes show same direction • "✓ ALIGNED" = All timeframes agree (high confidence) • "✗ Mixed" = Timeframes disagree (lower confidence) • Aligned trends have higher probability 4. Observe Strength Changes • Rising strength = Trend strengthening • Falling strength = Trend weakening • Strength near extremes (+75/-75) = Potential exhaustion • Strength near zero = Indecision/consolidation ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💡 Trading Strategies Strategy 1: Trend Following Best For: Capturing major moves Timeframes: 1H, 4H, Daily Rules: 1. Wait for strength to reach +50 or higher (or -50 or lower) 2. Check MTF alignment - all timeframes should agree 3. Enter on pullbacks in the direction of strength 4. Hold position while strength remains above +25 (or below -25) 5. Exit when strength crosses back to weak zone or reverses Example - Long Setup: • Strength crosses above +50 = Strong bull trend • All MTF readings positive and aligned • Wait for minor pullback to support • Enter long with stop below recent swing low • Hold while strength stays above +25 • Exit if strength drops below +10 or reverses to negative Strategy 2: Reversal Trading Best For: Catching trend changes early Timeframes: 15min, 1H, 4H Rules: 1. Watch for strength to reach extreme levels (+75 or -75) 2. Look for divergence (price new high/low but strength declining) 3. Wait for zero-line cross (triangle marker appears) 4. Enter in direction of new trend 5. Use tight stops since you're catching early Example - Bullish Reversal: • Strength at -80 (very strong bear) • Price makes new low but strength only at -70 = Divergence • Green triangle appears = Zero-line cross • Enter long on confirmation • Stop below recent swing low • Target: Strength reaching +50 Strategy 3: Avoid Bad Trades Best For: Improving win rate Timeframes: All Rules: • DON'T trade when strength is between -10 and +10 (neutral zone) • DON'T go long when strength is negative • DON'T go short when strength is positive • DON'T trade against MTF alignment • DO wait for clear strength readings Why It Works: Most losses come from trading in choppy markets or against the trend Strategy 4: Position Sizing Based On Strength Best For: Risk management Timeframes: All Rules: • Strength +75 to +100 or -75 to -100 = Full position size (2-3% risk) • Strength +50 to +75 or -50 to -75 = Normal position (1.5-2% risk) • Strength +25 to +50 or -25 to -50 = Reduced position (1% risk) • Strength -10 to +10 = No trades or minimal size (0.5% risk) Why It Works: Bigger positions in stronger trends, smaller in weak trends ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚙️ Settings Explained Multi-Timeframe Analysis • Toggle ON/OFF the MTF readings in the info panel • Turn OFF for cleaner display if you only trade one timeframe Timeframe 1, 2, 3 (Default: 15min, 1H, 4H) • Choose which timeframes to analyze • For day trading: Use 5min, 15min, 1H • For swing trading: Use 1H, 4H, Daily • For position trading: Use 4H, Daily, Weekly • Higher timeframes show bigger picture trends MA Length (Default: 20) • Moving average period for trend direction component • Lower values (10-15): More responsive, more signals • Higher values (25-50): Smoother, fewer signals • Recommended: 20 for most styles ATR Length (Default: 14) • Period for measuring volatility • Standard setting works well for most markets • Recommended: Keep at 14 RSI Length (Default: 14) • Period for momentum measurement • Standard setting works well for most markets • Recommended: Keep at 14 Show Trend Labels on Chart • Toggle ON to display "BULL" / "BEAR" text at reversals • Keep OFF for cleaner chart (default) • Useful when backtesting to see historical signals Show Reversal Signals • Toggle triangle markers at zero-line crosses • Keep ON to catch trend changes • Turn OFF if you only care about current strength ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎓 How The Calculation Works The indicator measures 4 components, each worth 25 points (total = 100): 1. Trend Direction (25 points) • Compares price to moving average • Checks if MA is rising or falling • Perfect score: Price above rising MA • Minimum score: Price below falling MA 2. Momentum (25 points) • Uses RSI to measure momentum strength • RSI > 70 = Maximum bullish points • RSI < 30 = Maximum bearish points • RSI near 50 = Neutral points 3. Volatility Alignment (25 points) • Checks if price moves align with volatility • Strong moves in trending direction = High score • Weak moves or counter-trend = Low score • Uses ATR to measure volatility 4. Moving Average Alignment (25 points) • Checks EMA 8, 21, and 55 positioning • Perfect bullish: 8 > 21 > 55 above price • Perfect bearish: 8 < 21 < 55 below price • Misaligned = Reduced score Final Score = Sum of all 4 components (-100 to +100) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📱 Info Panel Guide Current • Shows exact strength number for current timeframe • Color-coded background (green = bullish, red = bearish) • Larger number for quick visibility Status • Text description of current trend state • Examples: "STRONG BULL", "WEAK BEAR", "NEUTRAL" • Quick interpretation without looking at number Timeframe Readings • Shows strength for each selected timeframe • Color-coded for quick reading • Compare to spot divergences MTF Alignment • ✓ ALIGNED = All timeframes show same direction (high confidence) • ✗ Mixed = Timeframes disagree (proceed with caution) • Most reliable trades happen when aligned ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📱 Alert Setup This indicator includes 4 alert types: 1.

Liquidity Heatmap [Eˣ]💧 Liquidity Heatmap - Free Indicator Overview The Liquidity Heatmap reveals where stop losses are clustered in the market - the hidden liquidity zones that smart money targets. This indicator automatically identifies Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL) above price and Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL) below price, showing you exactly where institutional traders are likely to hunt for stops before major moves. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎯 What This Indicator Does Identifies Liquidity Zones: • Buy-Side Liquidity (BSL) - Stop losses from SHORT positions clustered above price • Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL) - Stop losses from LONG positions clustered below price • Automatically clusters nearby levels into high-probability zones • Shows liquidity strength (1-5+) - higher numbers = more stops = bigger target • Removes swept liquidity in real-time as price takes out stops Visual Display: • 🔴 Red Zones Above Price = Buy-Side Liquidity (shorts' stops) • 🟢 Green Zones Below Price = Sell-Side Liquidity (longs' stops) • Thicker/Darker Zones = Higher liquidity concentration • BSL/SSL Labels = Show exact strength count • Triangle Markers = Liquidity sweep alerts (when price takes stops) Smart Features: • Auto-removes old liquidity (customizable lookback period) • Clusters nearby levels to reduce noise • Tracks liquidity strength and age • Updates in real-time as new swing points form • Alerts when major liquidity zones are swept ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📊 How To Use This Indicator Understanding Liquidity Concepts What is Liquidity? Liquidity refers to clusters of stop loss orders sitting in the market. These stops represent: • Long traders' stop losses (below support) = Sell-Side Liquidity • Short traders' stop losses (above resistance) = Buy-Side Liquidity Why Does This Matter? • Institutions NEED liquidity to fill large orders • Price often "sweeps" liquidity zones before reversing • Major liquidity = major target for smart money • Understanding liquidity = understanding market maker behavior The Liquidity Cycle: 1. Retail traders place stops at obvious levels (swing highs/lows) 2. Smart money identifies these clusters 3. Price is pushed to sweep the stops (liquidity grab) 4. Institutions fill their orders with this liquidity 5. Price reverses in the opposite direction ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💡 Trading Strategies Strategy 1: Liquidity Sweep Reversals Best For: Swing trading, catching reversals Timeframes: 15min, 1H, 4H, Daily Entry Setup: 1. Identify strong Sell-Side Liquidity (SSL) zone below price 2. Wait for price to sweep down into the SSL zone 3. Look for rejection/reversal candle pattern (pin bar, engulfing) 4. Enter LONG after sweep and reversal confirmation 5. Stop loss: Below the swept liquidity zone 6. Target: Opposite liquidity zone or key resistance Why It Works: Smart money sweeps stops to fill buy orders, then pushes price higher Example: • SSL zone at $45,000 with strength 3 • Price drops to $44,950, sweeps the SSL • Strong bullish reversal candle forms • Enter long at $45,100 • Target: BSL zone at $47,000 Strategy 2: Liquidity-to-Liquidity Runs Best For: Day trading, scalping Timeframes: 5min, 15min, 1H Entry Setup: 1. Price sweeps Sell-Side Liquidity below and reverses up 2. Identify Buy-Side Liquidity zone above 3. Enter LONG targeting the BSL zone above 4. Exit near/at the BSL zone (don't wait for sweep) 5. Stop loss: Below recent swing low Why It Works: Price moves from liquidity pool to liquidity pool Variation - Reverse for Shorts: • BSL sweep above → Look for SSL zone below • Enter short targeting lower liquidity Strategy 3: Liquidity Avoidance (Stop Placement) Best For: Improving win rate on existing strategies Timeframes: All Rules: 1. NEVER place stops exactly at obvious liquidity zones 2. Place stops beyond the liquidity zone with buffer 3. Or place stops before the liquidity zone (tighter, riskier) 4. Monitor liquidity strength - avoid zones with strength 3+ Why It Works: Market makers hunt obvious stop clusters Example: • Trading long, swing low at $100 (SSL zone, strength 4) • Bad: Stop at $99.50 (will get swept) • Better: Stop at $98.50 (beyond the liquidity) • Alternative: Stop at $100.50 (tighter, before sweep zone) Strategy 4: Confluence Trading Best For: High probability setups Timeframes: 1H, 4H, Daily Entry Setup: 1. Find liquidity zone that aligns with: • Major support/resistance level • Fibonacci retracement (0.618, 0.786) • Trendline • Round psychological number ($50,000, $2,000, etc) 2. Wait for sweep of this high-confluence zone 3. Enter on reversal with multiple confirmations 4. Larger position size justified by confluence Why It Works: Multiple factors = institutional interest = higher probability ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚙️ Settings Explained Core Settings Swing Detection Length (Default: 10) • Number of bars left/right to identify swing highs and lows • Lower values (5-8): More sensitive, more liquidity zones, more noise • Higher values (12-20): Less sensitive, only major swings, cleaner chart • Recommended: 8-10 for intraday, 10-15 for swing trading Liquidity Lookback Bars (Default: 100) • How many historical bars to track liquidity zones • Lower values (50-75): Shows only recent liquidity • Higher values (100-200): Shows longer-term liquidity clusters • Zones older than this are automatically removed • Recommended: 100-150 for most timeframes Zone Proximity % (Default: 0.5) • Percentage threshold to group nearby levels into single zone • Lower values (0.2-0.4): Keeps levels separate, more zones • Higher values (0.6-1.0): Aggressive clustering, fewer zones • Recommended: 0.4-0.6 for crypto, 0.3-0.5 for forex, 0.5-0.8 for stocks Visualization Settings Show Buy-Side Liquidity • Toggle ON/OFF red zones above price • Turn OFF if only interested in downside liquidity Show Sell-Side Liquidity • Toggle ON/OFF green zones below price • Turn OFF if only interested in upside liquidity Show Liquidity Labels • Toggle BSL/SSL labels with strength numbers • Turn OFF for cleaner chart appearance • Keep ON to see exact liquidity strength Display Style • Boxes: Filled rectangular zones (best for visualizing strength) • Lines: Horizontal dashed lines (minimal, clean look) • Both: Boxes + Lines (maximum visibility) Color Intensity • Low: 85% transparency (subtle, less distracting) • Medium: 75% transparency (balanced visibility) • High: 65% transparency (bold, maximum visibility) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📱 Info Panel Guide Located in the top-right corner, the info panel provides real-time liquidity statistics: Buy-Side Zones • Count of active BSL zones above current price • Higher number = More upside targets for price Sell-Side Zones • Count of active SSL zones below current price • Higher number = More downside targets for price Total Zones • Combined count of all active liquidity • Useful for gauging overall market structure Nearest BSL • Distance in % to closest Buy-Side Liquidity above • Example: +2.5% means BSL is 2.5% above current price • Quick reference for next upside target Nearest SSL • Distance in % to closest Sell-Side Liquidity below • Example: -1.8% means SSL is 1.8% below current price • Quick reference for next downside target Liquidity Bias • ⬆️ Bullish : More BSL than SSL (upside targets dominate) • ⬇️ Bearish : More SSL than BSL (downside targets dominate) • ↔️ Balanced: Equal liquidity on both sides (range-bound) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎓 Understanding Liquidity Strength What Do The Numbers Mean? Strength 1 : Single swing point • Light liquidity, minor target • Can be ignored in trending markets • Useful in ranging/choppy conditions Strength 2-3 : Moderate liquidity cluster • Multiple nearby swing points merged • Decent target for intraday moves • Watch for potential sweeps Strength 4-5 : Strong liquidity cluster • Major cluster of stops • High-probability target for institutions • Expect reactions when swept Strength 6+ : Extreme liquidity pool • Massive stop cluster (rare) • Critical zone - high probability of sweep • Often marks major support/resistance • Ideal for confluence setups ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📱 Alert Setup This indicator includes 2 powerful alert types: 1. Buy-Side Liquidity Sweep • Triggers when price sweeps BSL zone above • Shows potential bullish reversal opportunity • Often precedes upward continuation after sweep 2. Sell-Side Liquidity Sweep • Triggers when price sweeps SSL zone below • Shows potential bearish reversal opportunity • Often precedes downward continuation after sweep To Set Up Alerts: 1. Click the "Alert" button (clock icon) in TradingView 2. Condition: Select "Liquidity Heatmap" 3. Choose alert type: BSL Sweep or SSL Sweep 4. Configure notification method (push, email, webhook) 5. Click "Create" Pro Tip: Set alerts for both BSL and SSL sweeps to catch opportunities in both directions ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💎 Pro Tips & Best Practices ✅ DO: • Wait for confirmation - Don't enter immediately on sweep, wait for reversal pattern • Combine with trend - SSL sweeps in uptrends = higher probability longs • Check multiple timeframes - 1H liquidity + 4H liquidity = strongest zones • Monitor strength - Focus on zones with strength 3+ • Use proper risk management - Liquidity sweeps can go further than expected • Watch for re-sweeps - Sometimes liquidity zones get swept multiple times • Consider volume - High volume sweeps = stronger reversal potential ⚠️ DON'T: • Don't fade strong trends - In strong trends, sweeps often continue rather than reverse • Don't overtrade - Not every sweep is a tradeable setup • Don't ignore context - Check broader market conditions and news • Don't use alone - Combine with price action, support/resistance, and other analysis • Don't place stops at liquidity - Your stops will be hunted • Don't expect perfection

Smart Money Tracker [Eˣ]💰 Smart Money Tracker - Free Indicator Overview The Smart Money Tracker helps you identify when institutional traders (banks, hedge funds, and large players) are actively buying or selling. By analyzing unusual volume patterns and price action, this indicator reveals hidden accumulation and distribution zones that often precede major price moves. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎯 What This Indicator Does Tracks Institutional Activity: • Detects when "smart money" is accumulating (buying) at support levels • Identifies when institutions are distributing (selling) at resistance levels • Shows real-time buying and selling pressure through volume analysis • Highlights bars where unusual institutional activity is detected Visual Signals: • 🟢 Green Circles Below Bars = Accumulation Zone (institutions buying at lows) • 🔴 Red Circles Above Bars = Distribution Zone (institutions selling at highs) • Green Background Tint = Strong buying pressure detected • Red Background Tint = Strong selling pressure detected • Dashed Lines = Key institutional levels to watch Money Flow Histogram: • Shows buying vs selling pressure in real-time • Scale from -100 (extreme selling) to +100 (extreme buying) • Green bars = Net buying pressure • Red bars = Net selling pressure ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📊 How To Use This Indicator Basic Usage 1. Look For Accumulation Signals (🟢) • Green circles appear when institutions are buying at support • These zones often mark the end of pullbacks • Price typically bounces from these levels • Trading Signal: Consider long positions when accumulation appears at key support 2. Watch For Distribution Signals (🔴) • Red circles appear when institutions are selling at resistance • These zones often mark local tops • Price typically reverses from these levels • Trading Signal: Consider taking profits or short positions when distribution appears at resistance 3. Monitor The Pressure Histogram • Values above +20 = Strong buying pressure (bullish) • Values above +5 = Moderate buying pressure • Values between -5 and +5 = Neutral/ranging • Values below -5 = Moderate selling pressure • Values below -20 = Strong selling pressure (bearish) 4. Check The Info Panel (Top Right) • Status: Quick summary of current market pressure • Pressure: Numerical value of buying/selling force • Volume: Current volume status (High/Normal) • Accumulation Count: Number of accumulation signals in last 20 bars • Distribution Count: Number of distribution signals in last 20 bars ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💡 Trading Strategies Strategy 1: Accumulation Bounce 1. Wait for green accumulation circle at support level 2. Confirm with positive money flow histogram 3. Enter long when price bounces from accumulation zone 4. Set stop loss below the accumulation level Strategy 2: Distribution Reversal 1. Watch for red distribution circle at resistance 2. Confirm with negative money flow histogram 3. Consider taking profits on longs or entering shorts 4. Set stop loss above the distribution level Strategy 3: Pressure Divergence 1. Price making new highs but histogram declining = Bearish divergence 2. Price making new lows but histogram rising = Bullish divergence 3. These often signal trend exhaustion and reversals Strategy 4: Zone Confluence 1. When accumulation zones align with major support = High probability long 2. When distribution zones align with major resistance = High probability short 3. Multiple signals at same level = Institutional interest confirmation ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚙️ Settings Explained Volume Analysis Length (Default: 20) • Lookback period for calculating average volume • Lower values = More sensitive to recent volume spikes • Higher values = Smoother, less sensitive to noise • Recommended: 14-20 for day trading, 20-30 for swing trading Smart Money Threshold (Default: 1.5) • Multiplier for detecting "unusual" volume • Lower values = More signals (more sensitive) • Higher values = Fewer signals (only extreme volume) • Recommended: 1.3-1.5 for volatile markets, 1.5-2.0 for calmer markets Show Accumulation/Distribution Zones • Toggle ON/OFF the dashed zone lines • Keep ON to track key institutional levels Show Smart Money Labels • Toggle ON/OFF the zone labels • Turn OFF for cleaner chart appearance Show Pressure Histogram • Toggle ON/OFF the money flow histogram • Keep ON to see real-time pressure gauge ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎓 Understanding The Methodology What Is "Smart Money"? Smart money refers to institutional traders, banks, hedge funds, and large players who have significant capital and often move markets. These players: • Buy during weakness (accumulation) • Sell during strength (distribution) • Create support and resistance zones • Their activity precedes major moves How The Indicator Detects Smart Money: 1. Volume Analysis: Compares current volume to average volume to detect unusual activity 2. Price Action: Analyzes candle closes, wicks, and position within the range 3. Context: Identifies if activity happens at key swing highs or lows 4. Flow Calculation: Measures directional volume flow (buying vs selling) Why This Works: • Institutions cannot hide large orders - they create volume spikes • Accumulation at lows shows conviction in higher prices • Distribution at highs shows institutions taking profits • Following smart money increases probability of success ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📱 Alert Setup This indicator includes 4 built-in alert types: 1. Accumulation Detected - Fires when institutions buy at support 2. Distribution Detected - Fires when institutions sell at resistance 3. Strong Buying Pressure - Fires when pressure histogram exceeds +30 4. Strong Selling Pressure - Fires when pressure histogram drops below -30 To Set Up Alerts: 1. Click the "Alert" button (clock icon) in TradingView 2. Select "Smart Money Tracker" from the indicator dropdown 3. Choose your alert condition 4. Configure notification settings 5. Click "Create" ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💎 Pro Tips ✅ Best Timeframes: Works on all timeframes, but most effective on 15min, 1H, 4H, and Daily ✅ Combine With: Support/resistance levels, trend indicators, or your existing strategy ✅ Volume Matters: Signals are stronger on higher timeframes with significant volume ✅ Multiple Signals: Repeated accumulation/distribution at same level = Strong institutional interest ✅ Market Context: Use alongside broader market trend analysis for best results ⚠️ Avoid: Low volume periods, major news events (false signals possible), and over-relying on single indicator ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🚀 What Makes This Different?

5% Move Counter (Up vs Down)5% Move Counter (Up vs Down) This indicator tracks how many times a stock has made a 5% or larger move in a single session, and shows the count separately for up days and down days. It’s meant for traders who want quick context on whether a stock has a history of making large moves, instead of manually scrolling through years of price action. Most tools only tell you what’s happening right now. This one helps you understand what the stock is capable of. What it shows Number of 5%+ up days Number of 5%+ down days Optional display modes: All Up Only Down Only Why it’s useful Different stocks behave differently. Some give clean, powerful bursts when they break out, while others rarely move big even when the setup looks perfect. This tool helps you gauge a stock’s historical “explosiveness” so you can decide whether your strategy fits its behavior. If your setups depend on volatility or momentum, it helps to know whether the stock has produced big moves before. This gives you that information instantly. Customization You can place the stats box anywhere on the chart using a simple 1–9 selector. You can hide the rows you don’t need through a dropdown. When a row is hidden, its background becomes fully transparent so the chart stays clean. Who it’s for Short-term traders, breakout traders, swing traders, and anyone who wants a quick read on whether a stock moves enough to justify certain types of trades.

IsChartTFcomparisonHTF(_chartTf, _htfTf)   IsChartTFcomparisonHTF @description Determine whether the given High Time Frame (HTF) is greater than or equal to the current chart timeframe.   Parameters:      _chartTf (string) : The current chart’s timeframe string (examples: "5", "15", "1D").      _htfTf (string) : The High Time Frame string to compare (examples: "60", "1D"). @return Returns true if HTF minutes ≥ chart minutes, false otherwise or na if conversion fails. GetHTFrevised(_tf)   GetHTFrevised @description Retrieve a specific bar value from a Higher Time Frame (HTF) series. Supports current and historical OHLC values, based on a case identifier.   Parameters:      _tf (string) : The target HTF string (examples: "60", "1D"). GetHTFrevised(_tf, _case)   Parameters:      _tf (string)      _case (string) GetHTFfromLabel(_label)   GetHTFfromLabel @description Convert a Korean HTF label into a Pine Script-recognizable timeframe string. Examples: "5분" → "5" "1시간" → "60" "일봉" → "1D" "주봉" → "1W" "월봉" → "1M" "연봉" → "12M"   Parameters:      _label (string) : The Korean HTF label string (examples: "5분", "1시간", "일봉"). @return Returns the Pine Script timeframe string corresponding to the label, or "1W" if no match is found. GetHTFoffsetToLTFoffset(_offset, _chartTf, _htfTf)   GetHTFoffsetToLTFoffset @description Adjust an HTF bar index and offset so that it aligns with the current chart’s bar index. Useful for retrieving historical HTF data on an LTF chart.   Parameters:      _offset (int) : The HTF bar offset (0 means current HTF bar, 1 means one bar ago, etc.).      _chartTf (string) : The current chart’s timeframe string (examples: "5", "15", "1D").      _htfTf (string) : The High Time Frame string to align (examples: "60", "1D"). @return Returns the corresponding LTF bar index after applying HTF offset.
