Extended SOPR Indicator - SSOPR Tops (A/B toggle)Extended SOPR Indicator — SSOPR Tops and Lows (A/B toggle)
Observation-only. Data: Glassnode SOPR.
Overview
This indicator extends the classical SOPR (Spent Output Profit Ratio) to improve readability and reduce noise on charts. SOPR measures whether coins moved on-chain were spent at a profit or at a loss. In brief: SOPR > 1 → spending at profit; SOPR < 1 → spending at loss. SSOPR (from "Smoothed SOPR") applies optional log transform (centers baseline at 0), smoothing (standard or adaptive), and adds structured signals: Z‑score lows (capitulation), buy zones , and top detection after prolonged elevation.
Why extend SOPR? (SSOPR vs classical SOPR)
• Noise reduction: Raw daily SOPR can whipsaw around its baseline. SSOPR uses smoothing and (optionally) adaptive smoothing so regimes are visible without overfitting.
• Better readability: The log transform shifts the break-even line to 0, making “profit territory” (above 0) and “loss territory” (below 0) visually intuitive on oscillators.
• Actionable context: Z‑score highlights extreme lows (capitulation risk), a simple buy-zone threshold marks potential accumulation, and a structured top pattern (with a time factor) helps frame distribution phases after sustained elevation.
What the script plots
• Smoothed SOPR (SSOPR): An orange line representing the smoothed SOPR (with optional log transform and optional adaptive smoothing).
• Top markers: A red triangle appears once at the onset of a confirmed top pattern.
• Background shading:
– Soft green: Buy zone when SSOPR falls below the “Buy Threshold.” (+ Z‑score capitulation zones (extreme lows)).
– Soft red: Top‑zone shading when the top criteria are met but before the single triangle fires.
Inputs & parameters
• Smoothing Length (default 14): Base window for smoothing SSOPR. Higher values = smoother, slower response.
• Apply Log Transform (default ON): Uses log(SOPR) so the baseline is 0 (log(1)=0). Above 0 → net profit regime; below 0 → net loss regime.
• Adaptive Smoothing (default OFF): Expands smoothing length as volatility rises using a standard deviation proxy; reduces whipsaws while preserving structure.
• Z‑score Threshold for Lows (default −2.5): Highlights capitulation zones when SSOPR deviates far below its rolling mean.
• SSOPR Buy Threshold (default −0.02): Simple rule-of-thumb level for potential accumulation context when below (log scale).
• SSOPR Top Threshold (default +0.005): Minimum elevation required for “profit territory” when assessing tops (log scale).
• Min Bars Above Threshold Before Top (default 50): Ensures prolonged elevation before calling a top.
• Lookback for Peak Detection (default 50): Window used to locate the recent high.
• Drop % from Peak to Confirm Top (default 5%): Confirms the start of distribution from a local high.
• Highlight Background : Toggles shaded zones.
Top detection (indicator-only)
A top fires when ALL of the following are true:
SSOPR spent at least Min Bars Above Threshold above the Top Threshold (sustained elevation).
The rising phase test passes (Option A or B; see below).
A drop from the local peak exceeds Drop % within the Lookback window.
The peak occurred in profit territory (SSOPR > Top Threshold).
To avoid repeated signals during the decline, the script emits the triangle once, at onset.
Rising‑phase switch: Option A vs Option B
• Option A — Up‑step ratio : Over the last A: Bars for Rising Check (default 50), it requires that at least A: Required Up‑Step Ratio (default 60%) of bars were rising (each bar compared to the previous). This favors gradual, persistent advances and filters out “choppy” lifts.
• Option B — Net slope : Compares current SSOPR to its value B: Bars Back for Net Slope ago (default 50). If higher, the series is considered rising. This is simpler and reacts faster in volatile phases but can admit brief pseudo‑trends.
Guidance : Prefer A for conservative confirmation in slow, persistent cycles; use B when trend moves are strong and you need timely detection.
Interpretation guide
• Regimes (log view): Above 0 → spending at profit; below 0 → spending at loss.
• Capitulation lows: When Z‑score < threshold, conditions often reflect forced/liquidity‑driven spending. Treat as context, not signals.
• Buy zone: SSOPR < Buy Threshold flags potential accumulation conditions (combine with price structure).
• Tops: After prolonged elevation, a confirmed top often coincides with profit‑taking/distribution phases.
Recommended timeframes
• Daily : Code optimized for daily timeframe.
Method summary
• SSOPR source: GLASSNODE:BTC_SOPR (via request.security ).
• Optional log transform: sopr → log(sopr) to normalize around 0.
• Smoothing: SMA over Smoothing Length , optionally adaptive using local volatility (std dev).
• Z‑score: (SSOPR − mean) / std dev, highlighting extreme lows.
• Top: Requires long elevation above Top Threshold , rising‑phase (A/B), and a subsequent drop > Drop % from recent high.
Limitations & notes
• SOPR reflects on‑chain movements; some activity occurs off‑chain (exchanges, internal transfers). Not all moves imply sale; aggregation makes it a usable proxy for profit/loss realization.
• Higher smoothing reduces noise but delays signals; adaptive smoothing can help but is still a trade‑off.
• Treat thresholds as context markers. They are not entry/exit signals by themselves.
• Use with price structure, volume, and other on‑chain indicators (e.g., realized price bands, dormancy/CDD) for confluence.
How to use (examples)
• Advance holding above 0 (log view): Retests of 0 from above that hold—while SSOPR remains elevated—often mark absorption; look for Top conditions only after sustained elevation and a confirmed drop from peak.
• Downtrend below 0: Rejections near 0 can align with continued loss realization; extreme Z‑score lows suggest capitulation risk—context for accumulation, not a blind buy.
Recommended settings
• Weekly: Log ON, Smoothing Length 14–30, Adaptive ON, Buy Threshold −0.02, Top Threshold +0.005, Rising Method A, Min Bars 50.
• Daily: Log ON, Smoothing Length 14–20, Adaptive OFF or ON (depending on noise), Rising Method B for timely slope checks.

Smart Money Flow - Exchange & TVL Composite# Smart Money Flow - Exchange & TVL Composite Indicator
## Overview
The **Smart Money Flow (SMF)** indicator combines two powerful on-chain metrics - **Exchange Flows** and **Total Value Locked (TVL)** - to create a composite index that tracks institutional and "smart money" movement in the cryptocurrency market. This indicator helps traders identify accumulation and distribution phases by analyzing where capital is flowing.
## What It Does
This indicator normalizes and combines:
- **Exchange Net Flow** (from IntoTheBlock): Tracks Bitcoin/Ethereum movement to and from exchanges
- **Total Value Locked** (from DefiLlama): Measures capital locked in DeFi protocols
The composite index is displayed on a 0-100 scale with clear zones for overbought/oversold conditions.
## Core Concept
### Exchange Flows
- **Negative Flow (Outflows)** = Bullish Signal
- Coins moving OFF exchanges → Long-term holding/accumulation
- Indicates reduced selling pressure
- **Positive Flow (Inflows)** = Bearish Signal
- Coins moving TO exchanges → Preparation for selling
- Indicates potential distribution phase
### Total Value Locked (TVL)
- **Rising TVL** = Bullish Signal
- Capital flowing into DeFi protocols
- Increased ecosystem confidence
- **Falling TVL** = Bearish Signal
- Capital exiting DeFi protocols
- Decreased ecosystem confidence
### Combined Signals
**🟢 Strong Bullish (70-100):**
- Exchange outflows + Rising TVL
- Smart money accumulating and deploying capital
**🔴 Strong Bearish (0-30):**
- Exchange inflows + Falling TVL
- Smart money preparing to sell and exiting positions
**⚪ Neutral (40-60):**
- Mixed or balanced flows
## Key Features
### ✅ Auto-Detection
- Automatically detects chart symbol (BTC/ETH)
- Uses appropriate exchange flow data for each asset
### ✅ Weighted Composite
- Customizable weights for Exchange Flow and TVL components
- Default: 50/50 balance
### ✅ Normalized Scale
- 0-100 index scale
- Configurable lookback period for normalization (default: 90 days)
### ✅ Signal Zones
- **Overbought**: 70+ (Strong bullish pressure)
- **Oversold**: 30- (Strong bearish pressure)
- **Extreme**: 85+ / 15- (Very strong signals)
### ✅ Clean Interface
- Minimal visual clutter by default
- Only main index line and MA visible
- Optional elements can be enabled:
- Background color zones
- Divergence signals
- Trend change markers
- Info table with detailed metrics
### ✅ Divergence Detection

## How to Use
### 1. Trend Confirmation
- Index above 50 = Bullish trend
- Index below 50 = Bearish trend
- Use with price action for confirmation
### 2. Reversal Signals
- **Extreme readings** (>85 or <15) suggest potential reversal
- Look for divergences between price and indicator
### 3. Accumulation/Distribution
- **70+**: Accumulation phase - smart money buying/holding
- **30-**: Distribution phase - smart money selling
### 4. DeFi Health
- Monitor TVL component for DeFi ecosystem strength
- Combine with exchange flows for complete picture

## Data Requirements
⚠️ **Important Notes:**
- Uses **daily data** from IntoTheBlock and DefiLlama
- Works on any chart timeframe (data updates daily)
- Auto-switches between BTC and ETH based on chart
- All other crypto charts default to BTC exchange flow data
## Best Practices
1. **Use on Daily+ Timeframes**
- On-chain data is daily, most effective on D/W/M charts
2. **Combine with Price Action**
- Use as confirmation, not standalone signals
3. **Watch for Divergences**
- Price making new highs while indicator falling = warning
4. **Monitor Extreme Zones**
- Sustained readings >85 or <15 indicate strong conviction
5. **Context Matters**
- Consider broader market conditions and fundamentals
## Calculation
1. **Exchange Net Flow** = Inflows - Outflows (inverted for index)
2. **TVL Rate of Change** = % change over smoothing period
3. **Normalize** both metrics to 0-100 scale
4. **Composite Index** = (ExchangeFlow × Weight) + (TVL × Weight)
5. **Smooth** with moving average
## Disclaimer
This indicator uses on-chain data for analysis. While valuable, it should not be used as the sole basis for trading decisions. Always combine with other technical analysis tools, fundamental analysis, and proper risk management.
On-chain data reflects blockchain activity but may lag price action. Use this indicator as part of a comprehensive trading strategy.

Three-Year Pullback Indicator根據 VOO (Vanguard S&P 500 ETF) 和 0050 (元大台灣50) 的歷史數據,製作了一個 「回檔百分比」 指標,幫助大家在市場回調時,有更明確的底部加碼參考依據!
📌 指標特色與設計概念:
觀察過去走勢,像 VOO 和 0050 這種追蹤大盤的 ETF,自歷史高點回檔通常極少超過 30%。
分批加碼策略: 30% 以下的回檔區間,分為三個等份級距
30% 回檔 (紅色線): 第一筆加碼區
20% 回檔 (橘色線): 第二筆加碼區
10% 回檔 (綠色線): 第三筆加碼區
兩種回檔計算:
指標同時顯示兩種回檔百分比 (黑色/藍色線),讓您對價格所處位置一目瞭然:
黑色線表式從「歷史高點」 的回檔
藍色線表示從「自定義期間高點」 (預設 3 年/720 根 K 棒) 的回檔
請注意: 本指標僅供技術參考與研究交流。指標非投資建議! 投資人仍須根據自身的資金狀況、風險承受度及獨立判斷進行調整與決策。
Based on the historical data of VOO (Vanguard S&P 500 ETF) and 0050 (Yuanta Taiwan 50), I've created a practical "Drawdown Percentage" indicator. It aims to provide a clearer reference point for dollar-cost averaging (DCA) during market pullbacks!
📌 Indicator Features and Design Concept:
Historical Basis: Observing past trends, broad market tracking ETFs like VOO and 0050 have historically experienced very few drawdowns exceeding 30% from their all-time highs.Staged Accumulation Strategy: The drawdown range below 30% is divided into three equal tiers, serving as a reference for investors to deploy funds in stages:
30% Drawdown (Red Line): First Accumulation Zone
20% Drawdown (Orange Line): Second Accumulation Zone
10% Drawdown (Green Line): Third Accumulation Zone
🔍 Two Drawdown Calculations:
The indicator simultaneously displays two drawdown percentages (Black/Blue lines) for a clear view of the price's current position:
Black Line: Represents the drawdown from the "All-Time High".
Blue Line: Represents the drawdown from the "User-Defined Period High" (default is 3 years / 720 bars).

Normalised Volume Oscillator [BackQuant]Normalised Volume Oscillator
A refined evolution of the Klinger Volume Oscillator, rebuilt for clarity, precision, and adaptability. This tool normalizes volume-driven momentum into a bounded scale so you can easily identify shifts in accumulation and distribution across any asset or timeframe, while keeping readings comparable between markets.
What this indicator does
The Normalised Volume Oscillator quantifies the balance between buying and selling pressure using the Klinger Volume Oscillator (KVO) as its base, then rescales it dynamically into a normalized range between -0.5 and +0.5. This normalization allows traders to interpret relative strength and exhaustion in volume flow, rather than dealing with raw unbounded values that differ across symbols.
It is a momentum-volume hybrid that reveals the strength of trend participation: when buyers dominate, normalized readings rise toward +0.5; when sellers dominate, they fall toward -0.5. The midline (0) acts as an equilibrium between accumulation and distribution.
Core components
Klinger Volume Oscillator: The foundation of this indicator, combining volume with price trend direction to measure long-term money flow relative to short-term movement.
Normalization process: The raw KVO is scaled over a user-defined Normalisation Period , computing `(KVO - lowest) / (highest - lowest) - 0.5`. This centers all readings around zero, allowing overbought/oversold detection independent of asset volatility or volume magnitude.
Signal moving average: The normalized KVO is smoothed with a user-selectable moving average type—SMA, EMA, DEMA, TEMA, HMA, ALMA, and others. This becomes the signal line for confirmation of trend direction or mean-reversion setups.
How it works conceptually
1. The KVO detects when volume supports price movement (bullish) or diverges from it (bearish).
2. The script normalizes the raw KVO so that relative magnitude is consistent—what is “strong buying pressure” looks the same on BTCUSD as it does on AAPL.
3. Overbought and oversold regions are derived statistically, rather than from arbitrary values, based on percentile zones around ±0.4 and ±0.5.
4. The oscillator is optionally combined with a moving average to help identify crossovers, momentum shifts, and divergence confirmation.
How to interpret it
Above 0: Indicates dominant buying pressure and likely continuation of upward momentum.
Below 0: Suggests dominant selling pressure and potential continuation of downward movement.
Crosses of 0: Often mark transitions between accumulation and distribution phases.
+0.4 to +0.5 zone: Overbought region where buying intensity is stretched; watch for deceleration or divergence.
[-0.4 to -0.5 zone: Oversold region indicating panic or exhaustion in selling.
Signal-line crossover: A traditional momentum confirmation method; when the normalized KVO crosses above its moving average, buyers regain control, and vice versa.
Why normalization matters
Typical volume oscillators are asset-specific—what is considered “high” volume for one symbol is not the same for another. By dynamically normalizing KVO values within a rolling lookback, this version transforms raw amplitude into a standardized scale. This means you can:
Compare multiple assets objectively.
Set consistent alert thresholds for overbought/oversold regions.
Avoid misleading interpretations from absolute oscillator values.
Customization and UI
Moving Average Type & Period: Select your preferred smoothing method (SMA, EMA, TEMA, etc.) and adjust its period to tune sensitivity.
Normalisation Period: Defines how many bars the KVO range is measured over; shorter periods adapt faster, longer ones smooth more.
Visual Toggles:
* Show Oscillator : enables or hides the core histogram.
* Show Moving Average : adds a smoothed overlay for signal confirmation.
* Paint Candles : optional color overlay for chart candles based on oscillator direction.
* Show Static Levels : displays ±0.4 and ±0.5 zones for overbought/oversold boundaries.
How to use it
Trend confirmation: Use midline (0) crossovers as confirmation of emerging trend shifts—cross above 0 suggests a new bullish phase, cross below 0 a bearish one.
Reversal spotting: Look for normalized readings reaching ±0.5 and flattening, or diverging against price extremes.
Divergence analysis: When price makes a new high but the normalized oscillator fails to, it signals waning buying conviction (and vice versa for lows).
Multi-timeframe integration: Works best alongside higher timeframe trend filters or moving averages; normalization makes this consistent.
Alerts
Prebuilt alert conditions allow quick automation:
Midline crossovers (0): transition between accumulation and distribution.
Overbought (+0.4) and Oversold (-0.4) triggers for potential exhaustion.
Signal moving-average crosses for confirmation entries.
Tips for use
Combine with price structure—don’t fade every overbought/oversold reading; confirm with break of structure or candle patterns.
Use longer normalization periods for position trading, shorter for intraday analysis.
In choppy markets, treat 0-line oscillations as noise filters, not trade triggers.
Summary
The Normalised Volume Oscillator modernizes the classic Klinger Volume Oscillator by normalizing its readings into a standardized range. This makes it more adaptive across assets and timeframes, improves interpretability, and provides intuitive, data-driven overbought/oversold levels. Whether used standalone or as a confirmation layer, it offers a clearer view of volume dynamics—revealing when markets are truly being accumulated, distributed, or stretched beyond their sustainable extremes.
Holographic Market Microstructure | AlphaNattHolographic Market Microstructure | AlphaNatt
A multidimensional, holographically-rendered framework designed to expose the invisible forces shaping every candle — liquidity voids, smart money footprints, order flow imbalances, and structural evolution — in real time.
---
📘 Overview
The Holographic Market Microstructure (HMS) is not a traditional indicator. It’s a visual architecture built to interpret the true anatomy of the market — a living data structure that fuses price, volume, and liquidity into one coherent holographic layer.
Instead of reacting to candles, HMS visualizes the market’s underlying micro-dynamics : where liquidity hides, where volume flows, and how structure morphs as smart money accumulates or distributes.
Designed for system-based traders, volume analysts, and liquidity theorists who demand to see the unseen — the invisible grid driving every price movement.

🔬 Core Analytical Modules
Microstructure Analysis
Deconstructs each bar’s internal composition to identify imbalance between aggressive buying and selling. Using a configurable Imbalance Ratio and Liquidity Threshold , the algorithm marks low-liquidity zones and price inefficiencies as “liquidity voids.”
• Detects hidden supply/demand gaps.
• Quantifies micro-level absorption and exhaustion.
• Reveals flow compression and expansion phases.
Smart Money Tracking
Applies advanced volume-rate-of-change and price momentum relationships to map institutional activity.
• Accumulation Zones – Where price rises on expanding volume.
• Distribution Zones – Where price declines on rising volume.
• Automatically visualized as glowing boxes, layered through time to simulate footprint persistence.
Fractal Structure Mapping
Reveals the recursive nature of price formation. HMS detects fractal highs/lows, then connects them into an evolving structure.
• Defines nested market structure across multiple scales.
• Maps trend progression and transition points.
• Renders with adaptive glow lines to reflect depth and strength.
Volume Heat Map
Transforms historical volume data into a 3D holographic heat projection.
• Each band represents a volume-weighted price level.
• Gradient brightness = relative participation intensity.
• Helps identify volume nodes, voids, and liquidity corridors.
HUD Display System
Real-time analytical dashboard summarizing the system’s internal metrics directly on the chart.
• Flow, Structure, Smart$, Liquidity, and Divergence — all live.
• Designed for both scalpers and swing traders to assess micro-context instantly.

🧠 Smart Money Intelligence Layer
The Smart Money Index dynamically evaluates the harmony (or conflict) between price momentum and volume acceleration. When institutions accumulate or distribute discreetly, volume surges ahead of price. HMS detects this divergence and overlays it as glowing smart money zones.
◈ ACCUM → Institutional absorption, early uptrend formation.
◈ DISTRIB → Distribution and top-heavy conditions.
○ IDLE → Neutral flow equilibrium.
Divergences between price and volume are signaled using holographic alerts ( ⚠ ALERT ) to highlight exhaustion or trap conditions — often precursors to structural reversals.
---
🌀 Fractal Market Structure Engine
The fractal subsystem recursively identifies local pivot symmetry, connecting micro-structural highs and lows into a holographic skeleton.
• Bullish Structure — Higher highs & higher lows align (▲ BULLISH).
• Bearish Structure — Lower highs & lower lows dominate (▼ BEARISH).
• Ranging — Fractal symmetry balance (◆ RANGING).
Each transition is visually represented through adaptive glow intensity, producing a living contour of market evolution .
---
🔥 Volume Heat Map Projection
The heatmap acts as a volumetric X-ray of the recent 100–300 bars. Each horizontal segment reflects liquidity density, rendered with gradient opacity from cold (inactive) to hot (highly active).
• Detects hidden accumulation shelves and distribution ridges.
• Identifies imbalanced liquidity corridors (voids).
• Reveals the invisible scaffolding of the order book.
When combined with smart money zones and structure lines, it creates a multi-layered holographic perspective — allowing traders to see liquidity clusters and their interaction with evolving structure in real time.
---
💎 Holographic Visual Engine
Every element of HMS is dynamically color-mapped to its visual theme . Each theme carries a distinct personality:
Aeon — Neon blue plasma aesthetic; futuristic and fluid.
Cyber — High-contrast digital energy; circuit-like clarity.
Quantum — Deep space gradients; reflective of non-linear flow.
Neural — Organic transitions; biological intelligence simulation.
Plasma — Vapor-bright gradients; high-energy reactive feedback.
Crystal — Minimalist, transparent geometry; pristine data visibility.
Optional Glow Effects and Pulse Animations create a living hologram that responds to real-time market conditions.

Buying Climax + Spring [Darwinian]Buying Climax + Spring Indicator
Overview
Advanced Wyckoff-based indicator that identifies potential market reversals through **Buying Climax** patterns (exhaustion tops) and **Spring** patterns (accumulation bottoms). Designed for traders seeking high-probability reversal signals with strict uptrend validation.
---
Method
🔴 Buying Climax Detection
Identifies exhaustion patterns at market tops using multi-condition analysis:
**Base Buying Climax (Red Triangle)**
- Volume spike > 1.8x average
- Range expansion > 1.8x average
- New 20-bar high reached
- Close finishes in lower 30% of bar range
- **Strict uptrend validation**: Price must be 30%+ above 20-day low
**Enhanced Buying Climax (Maroon Triangle)**
- All Base BC conditions PLUS:
- Gap up from previous high
- Intraday fade (close < open and below midpoint)
- **Higher confidence reversal signal**
🟢 Wyckoff Spring Detection
Identifies accumulation patterns at support levels:
- Price breaks below recent pivot low (false breakdown)
- Close recovers above pivot level (rejection)
- Occurs at trading range low
- Optional volume confirmation (1.5x+ average)
- Limited to 3 attempts per pivot (prevents over-signaling)
✅ Uptrend Validation Filter
**Four-condition composite filter** prevents false signals in sideways/downtrending markets:
1. Close-to-close rise ≥ 5% over lookback period
2. Price structure: Close > MA(10) > MA(20)
3. Swing low significantly below current price
4. **Primary requirement**: Current high ≥ 30% above 20-day low
---
Input Tuning Guide
Buying Climax Settings:
**Volume & Range Thresholds**
- `Volume Spike Threshold`: Default 1.8x
- Lower (1.5x) = More signals, more noise
- Higher (2.0-2.5x) = Fewer but stronger exhaustion signals
- `Range Spike Threshold`: Default 1.8x
- Adjust parallel to volume threshold
- Higher values = extreme volatility required
**Pattern Detection**
- `New High Lookback`: Default 20 bars
- Shorter (10-15) = Recent highs only
- Longer (30-50) = Major breakout detection
- `Close Off High Fraction`: Default 0.3 (30%)
- Lower (0.2) = Stricter rejection requirement
- Higher (0.4-0.5) = Allow weaker intraday fades
- `Gap Threshold`: Default 0.002 (0.2%)
- Increase (0.005-0.01) for stocks with wider spreads
- Decrease (0.001) for tight-spread instruments
- `Confirmation Window`: Default 5 bars
- Shorter (3) = Faster confirmation, more false positives
- Longer (7-10) = Wait for deeper automatic reaction
Uptrend Filter Settings
**Critical for Signal Quality**
- `Minimum Rise from 20-day Low`: Default 0.30 (30%)
- **Most important parameter**
- Lower (0.20-0.25) = More signals in moderate uptrends
- Higher (0.40-0.50) = Only extreme parabolic moves
- `Pole Lookback`: Default 30 bars
- Shorter (20) = Recent momentum focus
- Longer (40-50) = Longer-term trend validation
- `Minimum Rise % for Pole`: Default 0.05 (5%)
- Adjust based on market volatility
- Higher in strong bull markets (7-10%)
Wyckoff Spring Settings
- `Pivot Length`: Default 6 bars
- Shorter (3-4) = More frequent pivots, more signals
- Longer (8-10) = Major support/resistance only
- `Volume Threshold`: Default 1.5x
- Higher (1.8-2.0x) = Stronger conviction required
- Disable volume requirement for low-volume stocks
- `Trading Range Period`: Default 20 bars
- Match to consolidation timeframe being traded
- Shorter (10-15) for intraday patterns
- Longer (30-40) for weekly consolidations
---
Recommended Workflow
1. **Start with defaults** on daily timeframe
2. **Adjust uptrend filter** first (30% rise parameter)
- Too many signals? Increase to 35-40%
- Too few? Decrease to 25%
3. **Fine-tune volume/range multipliers** based on instrument volatility
4. **Enable alerts** for real-time monitoring:
- Base BC → Initial warning
- Enhanced BC → High-priority reversal
- Confirmed BC (AR) → Strong follow-through
- Spring → Accumulation opportunity
---
Alert System
- **Base Buying Climax**: Standard exhaustion pattern detected
- **Enhanced BC (Gap+Fade)**: Higher confidence reversal setup
- **Confirmed BC (AR)**: Automatic reaction validated (price drops below BC midline)
- **Wyckoff Spring**: Accumulation pattern at support
---
Best Practices
- Combine with support/resistance analysis
- Watch for BC clusters (multiple timeframes)
- Spring patterns work best after Buying Climax distribution
- Backtest parameters on your specific instruments
- Higher timeframes (daily/weekly) = higher reliability
---
Technical Notes
- Built with Pine Script v6
- No repainting (signals finalize on bar close)
- Minimal CPU usage (optimized calculations)
- Works on all timeframes and instruments
- Overlay indicator (displays on price chart)

Minimalist "Accum" and "Distr" text labels appear at key inflection points, based on hybrid flow flips — designed to highlight smart money moves without clutter.
Trigger & Pattern Recognition
Built-in logic detects anchor points, trigger confirmations, and rare "Snake Eye" formations directly on WaveTrend, enhancing trade timing accuracy.
Visual Dashboard Table
A real-time table provides score-based insight into signal quality, trend direction, and volume behavior, giving you a full picture at a glance.
MFx Radar helps streamline discretionary and system-based trading decisions by surfacing key confluences across price, volume, and momentum all while staying out of your way visually.
How to Use MFx Radar
MFx Radar is a multi-timeframe market intelligence tool designed to help you spot trend direction, momentum shifts, volume strength, and high-probability trade setups using confluence across price, flow, and timeframes.
Where to find settings To see the full visual setup:
After adding the script, open the Settings gear. Go to the Inputs tab and enable:
Show Trigger Diamonds
Show WT Cross Circles
Show Anchor/Trigger/Snake Eye Labels
Show Table
Show OBV Divergence
Show Multi-TF Confluence
Show Signal Score
Then, go to the Style tab to adjust colors and fills for the wave plots and hybrid money flow. (Use published chart as a reference.)
What the Waves and Colors Mean
Blue WaveTrend (WT1 / WT2). These are the main momentum waves.
WT1 > WT2 = bullish momentum
WT1 < WT2 = bearish momentum
Above zero = bullish bias
Below zero = bearish bias
When WT1 crosses above WT2, it often marks the beginning of a move — these are shown as green trigger diamonds.
VWAP-MACD Line
The yellow fill helps spot volume-based momentum.
Rising = trend acceleration
Use together with BBWP (bollinger band width percentile) and hybrid money flow for confirmation.
Hybrid Money Flow
Combines CMF and MFI, normalized and smoothed.
Green = accumulation
Red = distribution
Transitions are key — especially when price moves up, but money flow stays red (a divergence warning).
This is useful for spotting fakeouts or confirming smart money shifts.
Orange Vertical Highlights
Shows when price is rising, but money flow is still red.
Often a sign of hidden distribution or "exit pump" behavior.
Table Dashboard (Bottom-Right)
BBWP (Volatility Pulse)
When BBWP is low (<20), it signals consolidation — a breakout is likely to follow.
Use this with ADX and WaveTrend position to anticipate directional breakouts.
Trend by ADX
Shows whether the market is trending and in which direction.
Combined with money flow and RSI, this gives strong confirmation on breakouts.
OBV HTF Bias
Gives higher timeframe pressure (bullish/bearish/neutral).
Helps avoid taking counter-trend trades.
Pattern Labels (WT-Based)
A = Anchor Wave — WT hitting oversold
T = Trigger Wave — WT turning back up after anchor
👀 = Snake Eyes — Rare pattern, usually signaling strong reversal potential
These help in timing entries, especially when they align with other signals like BBWP breakouts, confluence, or smart money flow flips.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Consensus
The system checks WaveTrend on 5 different timeframes and gives:
Color-coded signals on each TF
A final score: “Mostly Up,” “Mostly Down,” or “Mixed”
When MTFs align with wave crosses, BBWP expansion, and hybrid money flow shifts, the probability of sustained move is higher.
Divergence Spotting (Advanced Tip)
Watch for:Price rising while money flow is red → Possible trap / early exit
Price dropping while money flow is green → Early accumulation
Combine this with anchor-trigger patterns and MTF trend support for spotting bottoms or tops early.
Final Tips
Use WT trigger crosses as initial signal. Confirm with money flow direction + color flip
Look at BBWP for breakout timing. Use table as your decision dashboard
Favor trades that align with MTF consensus
DYNAMIC TRADING DASHBOARDStudy Material for the "Dynamic Trading Dashboard"
This Dynamic Trading Dashboard is designed as an educational tool within the TradingView environment. It compiles commonly used market indicators and analytical methods into one visual interface so that traders and learners can see relationships between indicators and price action. Understanding these indicators, step by step, can help traders develop discipline, improve technical analysis skills, and build strategies. Below is a detailed explanation of each module.
________________________________________
1. Price and Daily Reference Points
The dashboard displays the current price, along with percentage change compared to the day’s opening price. It also highlights whether the price is moving upward or downward using directional symbols. Alongside, it tracks daily high, low, open, and daily range.
For traders, daily levels provide valuable reference points. The daily high and low are considered intraday support and resistance, while the median price of the day often acts as a pivot level for mean reversion traders. Monitoring these helps learners see how price oscillates within daily ranges.
________________________________________
2. VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
VWAP is calculated as a cumulative average price weighted by volume. The dashboard compares the current price with VWAP, showing whether the market is trading above or below it.
For traders, VWAP is often a guide for institutional order flow. Price trading above VWAP suggests bullish sentiment, while trading below VWAP indicates bearish sentiment. Learners can use VWAP as a training tool to recognize trend-following vs. mean reversion setups.
________________________________________
3. Volume Analysis
The system distinguishes between buy volume (when the closing price is higher than the open) and sell volume (when the closing price is lower than the open). A progress bar highlights the ratio of buying vs. selling activity in percentage.
This is useful because volume confirms price action. For instance, if prices rise but sell volume dominates, it can signal weakness. New traders learning with this tool should focus on how volume often precedes price reversals and trends.
________________________________________
4. RSI (Relative Strength Index)
RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures price strength on a scale from 0 to 100. The dashboard classifies RSI readings into overbought (>70), oversold (<30), or neutral zones and adds visual progress bars.
RSI helps learners understand momentum shifts. During training, one should notice how trending markets can keep RSI extended for longer periods (not immediate reversal signals), while range-bound markets react more sharply to RSI extremes. It is an excellent tool for practicing trend vs. range identification.
________________________________________
5. MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)
The MACD indicator involves a fast EMA, slow EMA, and signal line, with focus on crossovers. The dashboard shows whether a “bullish cross” (MACD above signal line) or “bearish cross” (MACD below signal line) has occurred.
MACD teaches traders to identify trend momentum shifts and divergence. During practice, traders can explore how MACD signals align with VWAP trends or RSI levels, which helps in building a structured multi-indicator analysis.
________________________________________
6. Stochastic Oscillator
This indicator compares the current close relative to a range of highs and lows over a period. Displayed values oscillate between 0 and 100, marking zones of overbought (>80) and oversold (<20).
Stochastics are useful for students of trading to recognize short-term momentum changes. Unlike RSI, it reacts faster to price volatility, so false signals are common. Part of the training exercise can be to observe how stochastic “flips” can align with volume surges or daily range endpoints.
________________________________________
7. Trend & Momentum Classification
The dashboard adds simple labels for trend (uptrend, downtrend, neutral) based on RSI thresholds. Additionally, it provides quick momentum classification (“bullish hold”, “bearish hold”, or neutral).
This is beneficial for beginners as it introduces structured thinking: differentiating long-term market bias (trend) from short-term directional momentum. By combining both, traders can practice filtering signals instead of trading randomly.
________________________________________
8. Accumulation / Distribution Bias
Based on RSI levels, the script generates simplified tags such as “Accumulate Long”, “Accumulate Short”, or “Wait”.
This is purely an interpretive guide, helping learners think in terms of accumulation phases (when markets are low) and distribution phases (when markets are high). It reinforces the concept that trading is not only directional but also involves timing.
________________________________________
9. Overall Market Status and Score
Finally, the dashboard compiles multiple indicators (VWAP position, RSI, MACD, Stochastics, and price vs. median levels) into a Market Score expressed as a percentage. It also labels the market as Overbought, Oversold, or Normal.
This scoring system isn’t a recommendation but a learning framework. Students can analyze how combining different indicators improves decision-making. The key training focus here is confluence: not depending on one indicator but observing when several conditions align.
Extended Study Material with Formulas
________________________________________
1. Daily Reference Levels (High, Low, Open, Median, Range)
• Day High (H): Maximum price of the session.
DayHigh=max(Hightoday)DayHigh=max(Hightoday)
• Day Low (L): Minimum price of the session.
DayLow=min(Lowtoday)DayLow=min(Lowtoday)
• Day Open (O): Opening price of the session.
DayOpen=OpentodayDayOpen=Opentoday
• Day Range:
Range=DayHigh−DayLowRange=DayHigh−DayLow
• Median: Mid-point between high and low.
Median=DayHigh+DayLow2Median=2DayHigh+DayLow
These act as intraday guideposts for seeing how far the price has stretched from its key reference levels.
________________________________________
2. VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
VWAP considers both price and volume for a weighted average:
VWAPt=∑i=1t(Pricei×Volumei)∑i=1tVolumeiVWAPt=∑i=1tVolumei∑i=1t(Pricei×Volumei)
Here, Price_i can be the average price (High + Low + Close) ÷ 3, also known as hlc3.
• Interpretation: Price above VWAP = bullish bias; Price below = bearish bias.
________________________________________
3. Volume Buy/Sell Analysis
The dashboard splits total volume into buy volume and sell volume based on candle type.
• Buy Volume:
BuyVol=Volumeif Close > Open, else 0BuyVol=Volumeif Close > Open, else 0
• Sell Volume:
SellVol=Volumeif Close < Open, else 0SellVol=Volumeif Close < Open, else 0
• Buy Ratio (%):
VolumeRatio=BuyVolBuyVol+SellVol×100VolumeRatio=BuyVol+SellVolBuyVol×100
This helps traders gauge who is in control during a session—buyers or sellers.
________________________________________
4. RSI (Relative Strength Index)
RSI measures strength of momentum by comparing gains vs. losses.
Step 1: Compute average gains (AG) and losses (AL).
AG=Average of Upward Closes over N periodsAG=Average of Upward Closes over N periodsAL=Average of Downward Closes over N periodsAL=Average of Downward Closes over N periods
Step 2: Calculate relative strength (RS).
RS=AGALRS=ALAG
Step 3: RSI formula.
RSI=100−1001+RSRSI=100−1+RS100
• Used to detect overbought (>70), oversold (<30), or neutral momentum zones.
________________________________________
5. MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)
• Fast EMA:
EMAfast=EMA(Close,length=fast)EMAfast=EMA(Close,length=fast)
• Slow EMA:
EMAslow=EMA(Close,length=slow)EMAslow=EMA(Close,length=slow)
• MACD Line:
MACD=EMAfast−EMAslowMACD=EMAfast−EMAslow
• Signal Line:
Signal=EMA(MACD,length=signal)Signal=EMA(MACD,length=signal)
• Histogram:
Histogram=MACD−SignalHistogram=MACD−Signal
Crossovers between MACD and Signal are used in studying bullish/bearish phases.
________________________________________
6. Stochastic Oscillator
Stochastic compares the current close against a range of highs and lows.
%K=Close−LowestLowHighestHigh−LowestLow×100%K=HighestHigh−LowestLowClose−LowestLow×100
Where LowestLow and HighestHigh are the lowest and highest values over N periods.
The %D line is a smooth version of %K (using a moving average).
%D=SMA(%K,smooth)%D=SMA(%K,smooth)
• Values above 80 = overbought; below 20 = oversold.
________________________________________
7. Trend and Momentum Classification
This dashboard generates simplified trend/momentum logic using RSI.
• Trend:
• RSI < 40 → Downtrend
• RSI > 60 → Uptrend
• In Between → Neutral
• Momentum Bias:
• RSI > 70 → Bullish Hold
• RSI < 30 → Bearish Hold
• Otherwise Neutral
This is not predictive, only a classification framework for educational use.
________________________________________
8. Accumulation/Distribution Bias
Based on extreme RSI values:
• RSI < 25 → Accumulate Long Bias
• RSI > 80 → Accumulate Short Bias
• Else → Wait/No Action
This helps learners understand the idea of accumulation at lows (strength building) and distribution at highs (profit booking).
________________________________________
9. Overall Market Status and Score
The tool adds up 5 bullish conditions:
1. Price above VWAP
2. RSI > 50
3. MACD > Signal
4. Stochastic > 50
5. Price above Daily Median
BullishScore=ConditionsMet5×100BullishScore=5ConditionsMet×100
Then it categorizes the market:
• RSI > 70 or Stoch > 80 → Overbought
• RSI < 30 or Stoch < 20 → Oversold
• Else → Normal
This encourages learners to think in terms of probabilistic conditions instead of single-indicator signals.

Advanced Volume Profile Pro Delta + POC + VAH/VAL# Advanced Volume Profile Pro - Delta + POC + VAH/VAL Analysis System
## WHAT THIS SCRIPT DOES
This script creates a comprehensive volume profile analysis system that combines traditional volume-at-price distribution with delta volume calculations, Point of Control (POC) identification, and Value Area (VAH/VAL) analysis. Unlike standard volume indicators that show only total volume over time, this script analyzes volume distribution across price levels and estimates buying vs selling pressure using multiple calculation methods to provide deeper market structure insights.
## WHY THIS COMBINATION IS ORIGINAL AND USEFUL
**The Problem Solved:** Traditional volume indicators show when volume occurs but not where price finds acceptance or rejection. Standalone volume profiles lack directional bias information, while basic delta calculations don't provide structural context. Traders need to understand both volume distribution AND directional sentiment at key price levels.
**The Solution:** This script implements an integrated approach that:
- Maps volume distribution across price levels using configurable row density
- Estimates delta (buying vs selling pressure) using three different methodologies
- Identifies Point of Control (highest volume price level) for key support/resistance
- Calculates Value Area boundaries where 70% of volume traded
- Provides real-time alerts for key level interactions and volume imbalances
**Unique Features:**
1. **Developing POC Visualization**: Real-time tracking of Point of Control migration throughout the session via blue dotted trail, revealing institutional accumulation/distribution patterns before they complete
2. **Multi-Method Delta Calculation**: Price Action-based, Bid/Ask estimation, and Cumulative methods for different market conditions
3. **Adaptive Timeframe System**: Auto-adjusts calculation parameters based on chart timeframe for optimal performance
4. **Flexible Profile Types**: N Bars Back (precise control), Days Back (calendar-based), and Session-based analysis modes
5. **Advanced Imbalance Detection**: Identifies and highlights significant buying/selling imbalances with configurable thresholds
6. **Comprehensive Alert System**: Monitors POC touches, Value Area entry/exit, and major volume imbalances
## HOW THE SCRIPT WORKS TECHNICALLY
### Core Volume Profile Methodology:
**1. Price Level Distribution:**
- Divides price range into user-defined rows (10-50 configurable)
- Calculates row height: `(Highest Price - Lowest Price) / Number of Rows`
- Distributes each bar's volume across price levels it touched proportionally
**2. Delta Volume Calculation Methods:**
**Price Action Method:**
```
Price Range = High - Low
Buy Pressure = (Close - Low) / Price Range
Sell Pressure = (High - Close) / Price Range
Buy Volume = Total Volume × Buy Pressure
Sell Volume = Total Volume × Sell Pressure
Delta = Buy Volume - Sell Volume
```
**Bid/Ask Estimation Method:**
```
Average Price = (High + Low + Close) / 3
Buy Volume = Close > Average ? Volume × 0.6 : Volume × 0.4
Sell Volume = Total Volume - Buy Volume
```
**Cumulative Method:**
```
Buy Volume = Close > Open ? Volume : Volume × 0.3
Sell Volume = Close ≤ Open ? Volume : Volume × 0.3
```
**3. Point of Control (POC) Identification:**
- Scans all price levels to find maximum volume concentration
- POC represents the price level with highest trading activity
- Acts as significant support/resistance level
- **Developing POC Feature**: Tracks POC evolution in real-time via blue dotted trail, showing how institutional interest migrates throughout the session. Upward POC migration indicates accumulation patterns, downward migration suggests distribution, providing early trend signals before price confirmation.
**4. Value Area Calculation:**
- Starts from POC and expands up/down to encompass 70% of total volume
- VAH (Value Area High): Upper boundary of value area
- VAL (Value Area Low): Lower boundary of value area
- Expansion algorithm prioritizes direction with higher volume
**5. Adaptive Range Selection:**
Based on profile type and timeframe optimization:
- **N Bars Back**: Fixed lookback period with performance optimization (20-500 bars)
- **Days Back**: Calendar-based analysis with automatic timeframe adjustment (1-365 days)
- **Session**: Current trading session or custom session times
### Performance Optimization Features:
- **Sampling Algorithm**: Reduces calculation load on large datasets while maintaining accuracy
- **Memory Management**: Clears previous drawings to prevent performance degradation
- **Safety Constraints**: Prevents excessive memory usage with configurable limits
## HOW TO USE THIS SCRIPT
### Initial Setup:
1. **Profile Configuration**: Select profile type based on trading style:
- N Bars Back: Precise control over data range
- Days Back: Intuitive calendar-based analysis
- Session: Real-time session development
2. **Row Density**: Set number of rows (30 default) - more rows = higher resolution, slower performance
3. **Delta Method**: Choose calculation method based on market type:
- Price Action: Best for trending markets
- Bid/Ask Estimate: Good for ranging markets
- Cumulative: Smoothed approach for volatile markets
4. **Visual Settings**: Configure colors, position (left/right), and display options
### Reading the Profile:
**Volume Bars:**
- **Length**: Represents relative volume at that price level
- **Color**: Green = net buying pressure, Red = net selling pressure
- **Intensity**: Darker colors indicate volume imbalances above threshold
**Key Levels:**
- **POC (Blue Line)**: Highest volume price - major support/resistance
- **VAH (Purple Dashed)**: Value Area High - upper boundary of fair value
- **VAL (Orange Dashed)**: Value Area Low - lower boundary of fair value
- **Value Area Fill**: Shaded region showing main trading range
**Developing POC Trail:**
- **Blue Dotted Lines**: Show real-time POC evolution throughout the session
- **Migration Patterns**: Upward trail indicates bullish accumulation, downward trail suggests bearish distribution
- **Early Signals**: POC movement often precedes price movement, providing advance warning of institutional activity
- **Institutional Footprints**: Reveals where smart money concentrated volume before final POC establishment
### Trading Applications:
**Support/Resistance Analysis:**
- POC acts as magnetic price level - expect reactions
- VAH/VAL provide intermediate support/resistance levels
- Profile edges show areas of low volume acceptance
**Developing POC Analysis:**
- **Upward Migration**: POC moving higher = institutional accumulation, bullish bias
- **Downward Migration**: POC moving lower = institutional distribution, bearish bias
- **Stable POC**: Tight clustering = balanced market, range-bound conditions
- **Early Trend Detection**: POC direction change often precedes price breakouts
**Entry Strategies:**
- Buy at VAL with POC as target (in uptrends)
- Sell at VAH with POC as target (in downtrends)
- Breakout plays above/below profile extremes
**Volume Imbalance Trading:**
- Strong buying imbalance (>60% threshold) suggests continued upward pressure
- Strong selling imbalance suggests continued downward pressure
- Imbalances near key levels provide high-probability setups
**Multi-Timeframe Context:**
- Use higher timeframe profiles for major levels
- Lower timeframe profiles for precise entries
- Session profiles for intraday trading structure

Dark Pool Block Trades - Institutional Volume📊 Dark Pool Block Trades - Institutional Volume
Visualize where institutional money positions before major price moves occur. This indicator reveals hidden dark pool block trades that often precede significant price movements - because when smart money deploys millions and billions in strategic accumulation or distribution, retail traders need to see where it's happening.
🎯 WHY DARK POOL DATA MATTERS:
Institutions don't move large capital randomly. Dark pool block trades represent strategic positioning by sophisticated money managers with superior research and conviction. These trades create hidden support/resistance levels that often predict future price action.
The key principle: Follow institutional flow, don't fight it. When institutions get involved, they create high-probability trading opportunities.
💰 HOW INSTITUTIONS INFLUENCE PRICE:
- Large block trades establish hidden accumulation/distribution zones
- Smart money builds positions BEFORE retail awareness increases
- Institutional activity creates "footprints" at key technical levels
- These trades often signal conviction plays ahead of major moves
- Institutions typically add to winning positions throughout trends
🔍 WHAT THIS INDICATOR SHOWS:
- Visual overlay of dark pool block trades directly on price charts
- Track institutional positioning across major stocks and ETFs
- Identify accumulation/distribution zones before they become obvious to retail
- Spot high-conviction institutional trades in real-time visualization
- Customizable block trade size filters and timeframe selection
- Historical institutional activity up to 5 years or custom ranges
💡 THE TRADING ADVANTAGE:
Instead of guessing price direction, see where institutions are already positioning. When large block trades appear in dark pools, you're witnessing strategic institutional commitment that frequently leads to significant price movements.
⚡ HOW IT WORKS:
This Pine Script displays institutional dark pool transactions as visual markers on your charts. The script comes with sample data for immediate use. For expanded ticker coverage and real-time updates, external data services are available.
🎯 IDEAL FOR:
- Swing traders following institutional footprints
- Traders seeking setups backed by smart money conviction
- Position traders looking for accumulation zones
- Anyone wanting to align with institutional flow rather than fight it
🔄 SAMPLE DATA INCLUDED:
Pre-loaded with institutional activity data across popular tickers, updated daily to demonstrate how dark pool activity correlates with future price movements.
The script initially covers these tickers going back 6 months showing the top 10 trades by volume over 400,000 shares: AAPL, AMD, AMZN, ARKK, ARKW, BAC, BITO, COIN, COST, DIA, ETHA, GLD, GOOGL, HD, HYG, IBB, IWM, JNJ, JPM, LQD, MA, META, MSFT, NVDA, PG, QQQ, RIOT, SLV, SMCI, SMH, SOXX, SPY, TLT, TSLA, UNH, USO, V, VEA, VNQ, VOO, VTI, VWO, WMT, XLE, XLF, XLK, XLU, XLV, XLY
Volume Range Profile with Fair Value (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Volume Range Profile with Fair Value (Zeiierman) is a precision-built volume-mapping tool designed to help traders visualize where institutional-level activity is occurring within the price range — and how that volume behavior shifts over time.
Unlike traditional volume profiles that rely on fixed session boundaries or static anchors, this tool dynamically calculates and displays volume zones across both the upper and lower ends of a price range, revealing point-of-control (POC) levels, directional volume flow, and a fair value drift line that updates live with each candle.
You’re not just looking at volume anymore. You’re dissecting who’s in control — and at what price.
⚪ In simple terms:
Upper Zone = The upper portion of the price range, showing concentrated volume activity — typically where selling or distribution may occur
Lower Zone = The lower portion of the price range, highlighting areas of high volume — often associated with buying or accumulation
POC Bin = The bin (price level) with the highest traded volume in the zone — considered the most accepted price by the market
Fair Value Trend = A dynamic trend line tracking the average POC price over time — visualizing the evolving fair value
Zone Labels = Display real-time breakdown of buy/sell volume within each zone and inside the POC — revealing who’s in control
█ How It Works
⚪ Volume Zones
Upper Zone: Anchored at the highest high in the lookback period
Lower Zone: Anchored at the lowest low in the lookback period
Width is user-defined via % of range
Each zone is divided into a series of volume bins
⚪ Volume Bins (Histograms)
Each zone is split into N bins that show how much volume occurred at each level:
Taller = More volume
The POC bin (Point of Control) is highlighted
Labels show % of volume in the POC relative to the whole zone
⚪ Buy vs Sell Breakdown
Each volume bin is split by:
Buy Volume = Close ≥ Open
Sell Volume = Close < Open
The script accumulates these and displays total Buy/Sell volume per zone.
⚪ Fair Value Drift Line
A POC trend is plotted over time:
Represents where volume was most active across each range
Color changes dynamically — green for rising, red for falling
Serves as a real-time fair value anchor across changing market structure
█ How to Use
⚪ Identify Key Control Zones
Use Upper/Lower Zone structures to understand where supply and demand is building.
Zones automatically adapt to recent highs/lows and re-center volume accordingly.
⚪ Follow Institutional Activity
Watch for POC clustering near price tops or bottoms.
Large volumes near extremes may indicate accumulation or distribution.
⚪ Spot Fair Value Drift
The fair value trend line (average POC price) gives insight into market equilibrium.
One strategy can be to trade a re-test of the fair value trend, trades are taken in the direction of the current trend.
█ Understanding Buy & Sell Volume Labels (Zone Totals)
These labels show the total buy and sell volume accumulated within each zone over the selected lookback period:
Buy Vol (green label) → Total volume where candles closed bullish
Sell Vol (red label) → Total volume where candles closed bearish
Together, they tell you which side dominated:
Higher Buy Vol → Bullish accumulation zone
Higher Sell Vol → Bearish distribution zone
This gives a quick visual insight into who controlled the zone, helping you spot areas of demand or supply imbalance.
█ Understanding POC Volume Labels
The POC (Point of Control) represents the price level where the most volume occurred within the zone. These labels break down that volume into:
Buy % – How much of the volume was buying (price closed up)
Sell % – How much was selling (price closed down)
Total % – How much of the entire zone’s volume happened at the POC
Use it to spot strong demand or supply zones:
High Buy % + High Total % → Strong buying interest = likely support
High Sell % + High Total % → Strong selling pressure = likely resistance
It gives a deeper look into who was in control at the most important price level.
█ Why It’s Useful
Track where fair value is truly forming
Detect aggressive volume accumulation or dumping
Visually split buyer/seller control at the most relevant price levels
Adapt volume structures to current trend direction
█ Settings Explained
Lookback Period: Number of bars to scan for highs/lows. Higher = smoother zones, Lower = reactive.
Zone Width (% of Range): Controls how much of the range is used to define each zone. Higher = broader zones.
Bins per Zone: Number of volume slices per zone. Higher = more detail, but heavier on resources.

Grid TraderGrid Trader Indicator ( GTx ):
Overview
The Grid Trader Indicator is a tool that helps traders visualize key levels within a specified trading range. The indicator plots accumulation and distribution levels, an entry level, an exit level, and a midpoint. This guide will help you understand how to use the indicator and its features for effective grid trading.
Basics of Trading Range, Grid Buy, and Grid Sell
Trading Range
A trading range is the horizontal price movement between a defined upper ( resistance ) and lower ( support ) level over a period of time. When a security trades within a range, it repeatedly moves between these two levels without trending upwards or downwards significantly. Traders often use the trading range to identify potential buy and sell points:
Upper Level (Resistance): This is the price level at which selling pressure overcomes buying pressure, preventing the price from rising further.
Lower Level (Support): This is the price level at which buying pressure overcomes selling pressure, preventing the price from falling further.
Grid Trading Strategy
Grid trading is a type of trading strategy that involves placing buy and sell orders at predefined intervals around a set price. It aims to profit from the natural market volatility by buying low and selling high in a range-bound market. The strategy divides the trading range into several grid levels where orders are placed.
Grid Buy
Grid buy orders are placed at intervals below the current price . When the price drops to these levels, buy orders are triggered . This strategy ensures that the trader buys more as the price falls, potentially lowering the average purchase price .
Grid Sell
Grid sell orders are placed at intervals above the current price . When the price rises to these levels, sell orders are triggered . This ensures that the trader sells portions of their holdings as the price increases, potentially securing profits at higher levels .
Key Points of Grid Trading
Grid Size : The interval between each buy and sell order. This can be constant (e.g., $2 intervals) or variable based on certain conditions.
Accumulation Range : The lower part of the trading range where buy orders are placed.
Distribution Range : The upper part of the trading range where sell orders are placed.
Midpoint : The average price of the entry and exit levels, often used as a reference point for balance.
As the price moves up and down within this range, your buy orders will be triggered as the price drops and your sell orders will be triggered as the price rises. This allows you to accumulate more of the asset at lower prices and sell portions at higher prices, profiting from the price oscillations within the defined range. Grid trading can be particularly effective in a sideways market where there is no clear long-term trend. However, it requires careful monitoring and adjustment of grid levels based on market conditions to minimize risks and maximize returns .
Configuring the Indicator :
Once the indicator is added, you will see a settings icon next to it. Click on it to open the settings menu.
Adjust the Upper Level , Lower Level , Entry Level , and Exit Level to match your trading strategy and market conditions.
Set the Levels Visibility to control how many bars back the levels will be plotted.
Interpreting the Levels :
Accumulation Levels : These are plotted below the entry level and are potential buy zones. They are labeled as Accumulation Level 1, 2, and 3.
Distribution Levels : These are plotted above the exit level and are potential sell zones. They are labeled as Distribution Level 1, 2, and 3.
Upper Level : Marked in fuchsia, indicating the top boundary of the trading range.
Exit Level : Marked in yellow, indicating the level at which you plan to exit trades.
Midpoint : Marked in white, indicating the average of the entry and exit levels.
Entry Level : Marked in yellow, indicating the level at which you plan to enter trades.
Lower Level : Marked in aqua, indicating the bottom boundary of the trading range.
By visualizing key levels, you can make informed decisions on where to place buy and sell orders, potentially maximizing your trading profits through systematic grid trading.

PA-Adaptive T3 Loxxer [Loxx]PA-Adaptive T3 Loxxer is a Loxxer indicator that is Phase Accumulation Cycle adaptive and uses T3 moving average for smoothing instead of the typical SMA or EMA . this allows for smoother signals by reducing noise.
What is Loxxer?
The Loxxer indicator is a technical analysis tool that compares the most recent maximum and minimum prices to the previous period's equivalent price to measure the demand of the underlying asset.
What is the Phase Accumulation Cycle?
The phase accumulation method of computing the dominant cycle is perhaps the easiest to comprehend. In this technique, we measure the phase at each sample by taking the arctangent of the ratio of the quadrature component to the in-phase component. A delta phase is generated by taking the difference of the phase between successive samples. At each sample we can then look backwards, adding up the delta phases.When the sum of the delta phases reaches 360 degrees, we must have passed through one full cycle, on average.The process is repeated for each new sample.
The phase accumulation method of cycle measurement always uses one full cycle’s worth of historical data.This is both an advantage and a disadvantage.The advantage is the lag in obtaining the answer scales directly with the cycle period.That is, the measurement of a short cycle period has less lag than the measurement of a longer cycle period. However, the number of samples used in making the measurement means the averaging period is variable with cycle period. longer averaging reduces the noise level compared to the signal.Therefore, shorter cycle periods necessarily have a higher out- put signal-to-noise ratio.

[blackcat] L3 Banker Fund AttackLevel 3
Background
This indicator is used to capture the movement of the banker fund. The buying and selling point is determined according to whether the momentum of the banker fund and the price momentum resonate.
How to use the indicator:
The red column line indicates that the banker fund accumulation signal appears, and the following 2 conditions are all satisfied to buy; (both above the green line of the banker fund attack threshold)
1. The yellow line and the purple line all cross the red accumulation histogram signal;
2. The yellow and purple trend lines are up
Key point: If the yellow line crosses the green line of the banker fund attack threshold, it will be pulled up or the big market will open! The main thing is to see the red accumulation histogram signal, or the green line that crosses the banker fund attack threshold. If there is a red accumulation histogram signal, it means that there are main low-acquisition chips, and start trading on the left to open a position. The area above the green line of the banker fund attack threshold belongs to the main force pulling stage. When the green line of the banker fund attack threshold is not broken upwards, there is still a lot of profit space, but if it can be effectively broken through, it is highly profitable!
Remarks
This indicator only effective for instruments that contains banker fund. If there is no obvious large fund inside, the indicator is not as meaningful as it is called.
I verified it worked well for > 4H or 1D timeframe. For the other time frames, you may need to check and verify by yourself.
Feedbacks are appreciated.
PA-Adaptive Polynomial Regression Fitted Moving Average [Loxx]PA-Adaptive Polynomial Regression Fitted Moving Average is a moving average that is calculated using Polynomial Regression Analysis. The purpose of this indicator is to introduce polynomial fitting that is to be used in future indicators. This indicator also has Phase Accumulation adaptive period inputs. Even though this first indicator is for demonstration purposes only, its still one of the only viable implementations of Polynomial Regression Analysis on TradingView is suitable for trading, and while this same method can be used to project prices forward, I won't be doing that since forecasting is generally worthless and causes unavoidable repainting. This indicator only repaints on the current bar. Once the bar closes, any signal on that bar won't change.

What is Polynomial Regression?
In statistics, polynomial regression is a form of regression analysis in which the relationship between the independent variable x and the dependent variable y is modelled as an nth degree polynomial in x. Polynomial regression fits a nonlinear relationship between the value of x and the corresponding conditional mean of y, denoted E(y |x). Although polynomial regression fits a nonlinear model to the data, as a statistical estimation problem it is linear, in the sense that the regression function E(y | x) is linear in the unknown parameters that are estimated from the data. For this reason, polynomial regression is considered to be a special case of multiple linear regression.

PA-Adaptive TRIX Log [Loxx]PA-Adaptive TRIX Log is a Phase Accumulation Adaptive TRIX Log indicator. This adaptation smooths the signal to catch larger trends.
What is TRIX?
TRIX is a momentum oscillator that displays the percent rate of change of a TEMA . It was developed in the early 1980's by Jack Hutson, an editor for "Technical Analysis of Stocks and Commodities" magazine. With its triple smoothing, TRIX is designed to filter insignificant price movements. In his article he uses a logarithm of a price (which is in many versions, left out).

Volume Indicators PackageCONTAINS 3 OF MY BEST VOLUME INDICATORS ALL FOR THE PRICE OF ONE!
CONTAINS:
Average Dollar Volume in RED
Up/Down Volume Ratio in Green
Volume Buzz/Volume Run Rate in BLUE
If you would like to get these individually, I also have scripts for that too.
Below is information about all three of these indicators, what they do, and why they are important.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------AVERAGE DOLLAR VOLUME----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dollar volume is simply the volume traded multiplied times the cost of the stock.
Dollar volume is an extremely important metric for finding stocks with enough liquidity for market makers to position themselves in. Market Liquidity is defined as market's feature whereby an individual or firm can quickly purchase or sell an asset without causing a drastic change in the asset's price. The key concept you want to understand is that these big instructions with billions of dollars need liquidity in a stock in order to even think about buying it, and therefore these institutions will demand a large dollar volume . A good dollar volume amount, that represents a pretty liquid name, is typically above 100 million $ average. Why are institutions important? Simple because they are the ones who make stocks move, and I mean really move. If you want to see large growth from a stock in a short amount of time, you need institutions wielding billions of dollars to be fighting one another to buy more shares. Institutions are the ones who make or break a stock, this is why we call them market makers.
My script calculates average dollar volume using four averages: the 50, the 30, the 20, and the 10 period. I use multiple averages in order to provide the accurate and up to date information to you. It then selects the minimum of these averages and divides this value by 1 million and displays this number to you.
TL;DR? If you want monster moves from your stocks, you need to pick names with average high liquidity(dollar volume >= $100 million). The number presented to you is in millions of whatever currency the name is traded in.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------UP/DOWN VOLUME RATIO-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Up/Down Volume Ratio is calculated by summing volume on days when it closes up and divide that total by the volume on days when the stock closed down.
High volume up days are typically a sign of accumulation(buying) by big players, while down days are signs of distribution(selling) by big market players. The Up Down volume ratio takes this assumption and turns it into a tangible number that's easier for the trader to understand. My formula is calculated using the past 50 periods, be warned it will not display a value for stocks with under 50 periods of trading history. This indicator is great for identify accumulation of growth stocks early on in their moves, most of the time you would like a growth stocks U/D value to be above 2, showing institutional sponsorship of a stock.
Up/Down Volume value interpretation:
U/D < 1 -> Bearish outlook, as sellers are in control
U/D = 1 -> Sellers and Buyers are equal
U/D > 1 -> Bullish outlook, as buyers are in control
U/D > 2 -> Bullish outlook, significant accumulation underway by market makers
U/D >= 3 -> MONSTER STOCK ALERT, market makers can not get enough of this stock and are ravenous to buy more
U/D values greater than 2 are rare and typically do not last very long, and U/D >= 3 are extremely rare one example I kind find of a stock's U/D peaking above 3 was Google back in 2005.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------VOLUME BUZZ-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Volume Buzz/ Volume Run Rate as seen on TC2000 and MarketSmith respectively.
Basically, the volume buzz tells you what percentage over average(100 time period moving average) the volume traded was. You can use this indicator to more readily identify above-average trading volume and accumulation days on charts. The percentage will show up in the top left corner, make sure to click the settings button and uncheck the second box(left of plot) in order to get rid of the chart line.
Dynamic Money FlowDynamic Money Flow is a volume indicator based on Marc Chaikin's Money Flow with a few improvements.
It can be used to confirm break-outs and trends.
Zero line crosses and divergences can provide useful signals while considering chart analysis as well.
Two weaknesses of CMF have been already fixed by Colin Twiggs (IncredibleCharts)...
1.CMF uses Chaikin's accumulation/distribution line to calculate the flow of money.
Accumulation/distribution line does not take the gaps into account. This can be solved using true range.
I call it true accumulation/distribution.
2.Oscillators have a tendency to center because of averaging calculations.
DMF is average of flowing volume divided by average of total volume. This means indicator plots the change of first factor compared to the other one. In Simple Averaging method every data is given an equal weight thus when the last data drops it will have heavy impact on the averages and the change of them.
It is much easier to identity these impacts after the drop of very high or very low data... So reducing the weight exponentially is a better option.
3.There is something else with CMF... changes of close price is ignored, because the formula only compares close price to its range.
To include the movements of close beside the close to range comparison, the distance between two last close prices should be compared to true range as well.
So volume can be distributed between close to range comparison (True Accumulation/Distribution) and close to close comparison automatically. And then results are summed to have a single multiplier.
An example for how close to close comparison affects DMF...
Or here you can see how lower wicks keep TMF (same as CMF in this case) from crossing zero line while price is trending down.
CandelaCharts - Composite Pressure Index 📝 Overview
The CandelaCharts – Composite Pressure Index (CPI) is a multi-factor oscillator that blends RSI , Money Flow Index (MFI) , and Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) into a single, stretchable “pressure” line. Instead of looking at three separate indicators, CPI compresses price momentum and volume flow into one normalized curve around 0 , then amplifies extremes using a rolling z-score .
The result is a dynamic gauge of buying vs. selling pressure that can travel beyond ±1 during strong regime shifts, helping you spot exhaustion, climaxes, and trend-strength phases more intuitively.
📦 Features
Composite pressure engine – Combines RSI, MFI, and CMF into a single normalized oscillator around 0, giving you a unified view of market pressure.
Custom weighting of components – Independently weight RSI, MFI, and CMF to prioritize pure price momentum or volume-driven signals.
Rolling z-score stretch – Uses a configurable z-score window to “stretch” the composite values, letting the line exceed ±1 during extremes instead of staying capped.
Adaptive amplitude control – An amplitude (gain) factor lets you scale how aggressive or subtle the CPI swings appear.
EMA smoothing – Optional smoothing removes noise while preserving the timing of swings and reversals.
Visual pressure band – Zero, +1, and -1 reference lines with a shaded band make it easy to see when pressure is “normal” vs. extended.
Dynamic color gradients – Warm/orange tones above 0 for bullish pressure and cool/blue tones below 0 for bearish pressure, with saturation increasing as pressure intensifies.
NA-safe statistics – Custom mean and standard deviation routines ensure stable behavior from the start of the chart and during partial history.
⚙️ Settings
RSI Length : Lookback length for RSI . Higher values smooth the RSI component; lower values make it more reactive to short-term price momentum.
MFI Length : Lookback length for the manual Money Flow Index . Adjust this to control how sensitive CPI is to price–volume interaction.
CMF Length : Lookback length for Chaikin Money Flow . This defines the window used to assess accumulation/distribution through volume flow.
RSI Weight : Relative importance of RSI within the composite. Increasing this emphasizes pure price momentum in the CPI.
MFI Weight : Relative importance of MFI. Higher values strengthen the influence of volume-weighted price moves.
CMF Weight : Relative importance of CMF. Raising this highlights accumulation/distribution as a driver of the pressure index.
Smoothing : EMA length applied to the stretched CPI line. A value of 1 effectively disables smoothing, while higher values reduce noise at the cost of a slight lag.
Z-score Window : Rolling window used to compute the mean and standard deviation of the raw composite. This defines the statistical context for what counts as “extreme”. Shorter windows adapt faster; longer windows give a more stable regime.
Amplitude : Gain factor applied to the z-scored composite. Values above 1.0 exaggerate swings and make extremes more visually pronounced; values below 1.0 compress them.

Divergences
📒 Usage
1. Identify directional pressure regimes
Use 0 as the key balance line:
CPI > 0 → Net bullish pressure (buyers in control).
CPI < 0 → Net bearish pressure (sellers in control).
You can treat prolonged stays above or below 0 as confirmations of trend direction, especially when price structure agrees.
2. Read statistical extremes instead of fixed levels
Because CPI is stretched via a z-score , values beyond ±1 typically represent statistically meaningful extremes within your chosen window:
CPI > +1 → Overextended bullish pressure / potential euphoria.
CPI < -1 → Overextended bearish pressure / potential capitulation.
These zones are not automatic reversal signals, but they highlight areas where monitoring for exhaustion, blow-offs, or risk-reward shifts can be beneficial.
3. Spot divergences with price
Classic divergence logic applies particularly well when pressure is composite:
Bearish divergence – Price makes higher highs, but CPI makes lower highs or fails to confirm.
Bullish divergence – Price makes lower lows, but CPI makes higher lows or shows less downside extension.
These patterns can be integrated with support/resistance, liquidity levels, and other CandelaCharts tools.
4. Tune the weights to your strategy
Adjust the three weights to match your focus:
Higher RSI weight → More sensitivity to pure price momentum (good for breakout or trend-following systems).
Higher MFI weight → Greater emphasis on price–volume interaction (ideal for spotting volume-confirmed moves).
Higher CMF weight → Stronger focus on accumulation/distribution (helpful for swing and position traders).
5. Integrate with existing setups
The CPI is designed to sit comfortably below price:
Use it as a “context” oscillator underneath your main price-action and liquidity models.
Combine CPI extremes and divergences with key levels, range models, or order flow signals for higher-confluence entries.

Buy / Sell Volume + % (Classic + Pressure)Buy / Sell Volume % (Classic + Pressure)
Overview
Buy / Sell Volume (Classic + Pressure) is a volume decomposition and dominance indicator designed to help traders understand how trading volume is distributed between buying and selling pressure on each candle.
Instead of treating volume as a single number, this indicator splits total volume into estimated Buy Volume and Sell Volume, visualizes them symmetrically, and summarizes dominance using a compact on-chart dashboard.
The indicator is intended as a context and confirmation tool, not a trade signal generator.
Core Concepts
1. Buy / Sell Volume Decomposition
The indicator estimates buying and selling activity based on the position of the close within the candle’s high–low range:
Closes near the high → more buying pressure
Closes near the low → more selling pressure
Middle closes → balanced activity
This provides a clear visual view of demand vs supply on every bar.
2. Dual Calculation Modes
🔹 Classic Mode (Default)
Uses pure candle-range logic
Buy Volume + Sell Volume = Total Volume (exact conservation)
No smoothing or directional bias
Values closely match traditional volume behavior
Best for:
Structural analysis
Accumulation / distribution studies
Comparing against raw volume
🔹 Pressure Mode
Introduces a directional bias:
Bullish candles slightly favor buy volume
Bearish candles slightly favor sell volume
Optional EMA smoothing reduces noise
Still volume-conserving (Buy + Sell = Total Volume)
Best for:
Identifying dominance
Trend continuation confirmation
Absorption vs initiative activity
Visual Elements
Volume Bars
Buy Volume plotted above zero
Sell Volume plotted below zero
Optional Total Volume Envelope for context
Color by Dominance
Bright colors when one side dominates
Faded colors when dominance is weak
Helps instantly identify:
Accumulation
Distribution
Absorption
Dashboard (Optional)
A compact dashboard displays:
Buy %
Sell %
Dominance State
BUY DOM
SELL DOM
BALANCED
The dashboard can be toggled ON/OFF and switched between Normal and Compact size to suit multi-pane layouts.
How to Use This Indicator
This indicator works best as a confirmation layer, not a standalone system.
Common Use Cases
Confirming breakouts or breakdowns
Spotting accumulation or distribution near key levels
Identifying absorption during consolidations
Filtering false price moves
Examples
Price rising + strong Buy % → constructive demand
Price rising + strong Sell % → possible distribution
Flat price + balanced volume → absorption / compression
What This Indicator Is NOT
❌ Not true order-flow or bid/ask data
❌ Not a buy/sell signal generator
❌ Not predictive on its own
All calculations are candle-based estimations, designed for context and insight, not execution timing.
Best Use
Works on all timeframes
Most reliable on liquid instruments
Especially useful when combined with:
Support / resistance
Trend structure
Market regime or breadth indicators
Summary
Buy / Sell Volume (Classic + Pressure) helps traders go beyond raw volume by visualizing who is in control of each candle, how strong that control is, and whether volume behavior supports price action.
Used correctly, it can significantly improve trade selectivity, confidence, and risk awareness.
Short-Term Bubble Risk [Phantom] Short-Term Bubble Risk
Concept
This indicator visualizes short-term market risk by measuring how far price is stretched relative to its recent weekly trend.
Instead of focusing on absolute price levels, it looks at price behavior.
A similar reading means similar market conditions, whether price is high or low.
The goal is to help identify areas of potential accumulation and potential distribution in a clear, visual way.
How It Works
The indicator compares the weekly closing price to a weekly moving average and displays the deviation as a histogram.
When price is far below its average, risk is considered lower
When price is far above its average, risk is considered higher
The zero line represents fair value, where price equals its weekly average.
Features
Color-coded histogram showing short-term risk levels
Designed to work across different assets and price ranges
Optional bar coloring on the main chart using weekly risk data
Safe to use on any timeframe (risk is calculated on weekly data)
Settings
# Moving Average Length (Weeks):
Adjusts how sensitive the indicator is to price changes
# Color Visibility Toggles:
Allows hiding or showing specific risk zones
# Bar Coloring:
Option to color chart candles based on weekly risk levels
Usage
This indicator is best used as a risk lens, not a timing tool.
Common uses include:
Identifying potential accumulation zones during weakness
Spotting overextended conditions during strong moves
Comparing short-term risk across different assets
Adding context to trend-following or DCA strategies
Trade Ideas
# Lower-risk zones (cool colors):
Can support accumulation or patience during downtrends
# Higher-risk zones (warm colors):
Can signal caution, reduced exposure, or profit-taking
Always combine with:
Trend direction
Market structure
Higher-timeframe context
Limitations
This indicator does not predict tops or bottoms
High risk can remain high during strong trends
Low risk does not guarantee immediate reversals
It should not be used as a standalone trading system.
