Market Analysis Assistant This indicator uniquely maps and interprets key market conditions using Moving Averages, MACD, RSI, and Bollinger Bands. Unlike traditional indicators that only display visual signals, this tool provides written analysis directly on your chart as soon as specific conditions are met. This feature makes it easier to understand the market’s current state and anticipate potential moves.
Why Moving Averages? Moving Averages are essential for identifying the overall trend of the market. By analyzing the 200, 20, and 9-period Moving Averages, this indicator helps traders quickly determine whether the market is in an uptrend, downtrend, or sideways phase. The integration of multiple averages offers a comprehensive view, allowing for more accurate trend identification.
Why MACD? The MACD is a powerful tool for spotting trend reversals and momentum shifts. By monitoring MACD crossovers, divergences, and the position of the MACD line relative to the zero line, this indicator helps you identify potential changes in the trend direction before they fully develop, giving you a critical edge.
Why RSI? RSI is crucial for understanding the market's overbought and oversold conditions. By tracking RSI levels and its crossover with its moving average, this indicator provides early warnings for potential trend reversals or continuations, helping you time your entries and exits more effectively.
Why Bollinger Bands? Bollinger Bands are used to measure market volatility and identify breakout opportunities. By analyzing the price’s relationship with the upper and lower bands, this indicator helps traders spot potential overbought or oversold conditions, as well as possible breakout scenarios, offering a clear view of market dynamics.
Trend Identification (getTrend()): Detects whether the market is in an uptrend, downtrend, or sideways phase by analyzing the position of the price relative to the 200, 20, and 9-period moving averages.
MACD Analysis (analyzeMACD()): Identifies potential trend reversals or continuations through MACD divergence, crossovers, and the MACD signal line's position relative to the zero line.
RSI Monitoring (analyzeRSI()): Detects overbought and oversold conditions and anticipates trend continuation or corrections based on RSI crossings with its moving average.
Trap Zone Detection (analyzeTrapZone()): Highlights areas of potential price consolidation between the 20 and 200-period moving averages, indicating possible breakouts.
Bollinger Bands Analysis (analyzeBollingerBands()): Analyzes the price’s relationship with Bollinger Bands to identify overbought/oversold conditions, breakouts, and potential trend continuations or correction.
Fibonacci retracement will also check the moment the price tests a monthly or daily weekly Fibonacci retracement

How to Use My Indicator:
The indicator is designed to provide detailed, real-time market condition analysis using Moving Averages, MACD, RSI, and Bollinger Bands. When certain market conditions are met, such as the price testing a specific moving average or the MACD indicating a potential reversal, the indicator displays this information in written form directly on the chart, in both English and Portuguese.
How to Interpret the Displayed Information:
The information displayed by the indicator can be used for:
Identifying Support and Resistance: The indicator can help identify when the price is testing an important support or resistance level, such as a moving average or a Fibonacci level, allowing the user to decide whether to enter or exit a position.
Trend Detection: If the indicator shows that the price is above the 200, 20, and 9-period moving averages, this may be a sign of an uptrend, indicating that the user should consider maintaining or opening buy positions.
Correction Signals: When the MACD indicates a potential correction, the user may decide to protect their profits by adjusting stops or even exiting the position to avoid losses.
Identifying Overbought/Oversold Conditions: Based on the RSI, the indicator can alert to overbought or oversold conditions, helping the user avoid entering a trade at an unfavorable time.
Example of Use:
the indicator shows several important pieces of information, such as:
"US100 Price is at the 50.0% Fibonacci level (Last Monthly)."
This suggests that the price is testing a significant Fibonacci level, which could be a point of reversal or continuation. A trader can use this information to adjust their entry or exit strategy.
"DXY RSI below 30: Indication of oversold condition"
This indicates that the DXY is in an oversold condition, which might suggest an upcoming bullish reversal. A trader could consider this when trading DXY-related assets.
"Bullish Trend: Price is above the 200, 20, and 9-period moving averages."
This confirms an uptrend, giving the user more confidence to hold long positions.

RGLRGL Breakout and Retest Trade Strategy
Key Concepts:
Breakout: A breakout occurs when the price moves decisively through a significant support (green line) or resistance (red line) level. This indicates a shift in supply and demand dynamics, with the potential for a strong price movement in the breakout direction.
Retest: After the breakout, the price often returns to the broken level (support becomes resistance and vice versa) to test its validity. This retest provides an opportunity to enter the trade at a more favorable price with confirmation of the breakout.
Cumulative Volume Delta (MTF)Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) Indicator
The Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator is a powerful analytical tool used to understand the behavior and dynamics of market participants through volume analysis. It tracks the net difference between buying and selling pressure, providing insights into market trends and potential reversals. Here's a detailed description of this indicator and its components:
The Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator calculates the cumulative net difference between buying and selling volume over a specified period. By analyzing this net difference, traders can gain insights into the underlying strength or weakness of a price movement, helping to identify trends, reversals, and potential breakout points.
Key Components:
Bull & Bear Power Calculation:
Bull Power: Represents the strength of buyers in the market. It is calculated based on the relationship between the current and previous price bars. A higher Bull Power indicates stronger buying pressure.
Bear Power: Represents the strength of sellers in the market. It is also calculated based on the relationship between the current and previous price bars. A higher Bear Power indicates stronger selling pressure.
Bull & Bear Volume Calculation:
Bull Volume: The volume attributed to buying pressure. It is calculated by taking the proportion of Bull Power relative to the total of Bull Power and Bear Power, multiplied by the total volume.
Bear Volume: The volume attributed to selling pressure. It is calculated similarly to Bull Volume but using Bear Power.
Delta Calculation:
Delta: The net difference between Bull Volume and Bear Volume for each bar. A positive Delta indicates more buying pressure, while a negative Delta indicates more selling pressure.
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD):
CVD: The running total of the Delta values over time. It accumulates the net buying and selling pressure to provide a visual representation of the market's cumulative sentiment.
Moving Average of CVD (CVD MA):
CVD MA: A simple moving average of the CVD, used to smooth out fluctuations and help identify the overall trend. It provides a baseline to compare the current CVD value against, highlighting divergences or convergences.
Multi-Timeframe Functionality:
The enhanced version of the CVD indicator includes multi-timeframe (MTF) capabilities, allowing users to select and analyze data from different timeframes. This feature enhances the versatility of the indicator by providing a broader perspective on market dynamics across various time intervals.
Practical Applications:
Trend Identification: By tracking the CVD and its moving average, traders can identify the prevailing trend. An upward-sloping CVD indicates sustained buying pressure, while a downward-sloping CVD indicates sustained selling pressure.
Divergences: Divergences between the CVD and price can signal potential reversals. For example, if the price is making new highs but the CVD is not, it may indicate weakening buying pressure and a potential reversal.
Breakout Confirmation: Significant changes in the CVD can confirm breakouts. A sharp increase in the CVD during a price breakout indicates strong buying support, adding confidence to the breakout.
Support and Resistance Levels: The CVD can help identify significant support and resistance levels based on changes in volume dynamics. For instance, a notable increase in buying volume at a support level can reinforce its strength.
Daily Close GAP Detector [Yosiet]User Manual for "Daily Close GAP Detector "
Overview
This script is designed to help traders identify and react to significant gaps in daily market prices. It plots daily open and close prices and highlights significant gaps with a cross. The script is particularly useful for identifying potential breakouts or reversals based on these gaps.
Configuration
GAP Close Threshold: This input allows you to set a threshold for the gap size that you consider significant. The default value is 0.001.
Timeframe Seeker: This input lets you choose the timeframe for the gap detection. The default is 'D' for daily.
Features
Daily Open and Close Lines: The script plots daily open and close prices. If the close price is lower than the open price, the line is colored red; otherwise, it's green.
Gap Detection: It calculates the difference between the current day's close and the previous day's close, both adjusted for the selected timeframe. If this difference exceeds the threshold, it's considered a significant gap.
Significant Gap Indicator: A cross is plotted on the chart to indicate significant gaps. The color of the cross indicates whether the gap is a short or long gap: red for short gaps and green for long gaps.
Alert Conditions: The script sets up alert conditions for short and long gap breakouts. You can customize the alert messages to include details like the ticker symbol, interval, price, and exchange.
How to Use
Add the Script to Your Chart: Copy the script into the Pine Script editor on TradingView and add it to your chart.
Configure Inputs: Adjust the "GAP Close Threshold" and "Timeframe Seeker" inputs as needed.
Review the Chart: The script will overlay daily open and close prices on your chart, along with crosses indicating significant gaps.
Set Alerts: Use the script's alert conditions to set up alerts for short and long gap breakouts. You can customize the alert messages to suit your trading strategy.
Extending the Code
To extend this script, you can modify the gap detection logic, add more indicators, or integrate it with other scripts for a more comprehensive trading strategy. Remember to test any changes thoroughly before using them in live trading.
Mean and Standard Deviation Lines Description:
Calculates the mean and standard deviation of close-to-close price differences over a specified period, providing insights into price volatility and potential breakouts.
Manually calculates mean and standard deviation for a deeper understanding of statistical concepts.
Plots the mean line, upper bound (mean + standard deviation), and lower bound (mean - standard deviation) to visualize price behavior relative to these levels.
Highlights bars that cross the upper or lower bounds with green (above) or red (below) triangles for easy identification of potential breakouts or breakdowns.
Customizable period input allows for analysis of short-term or long-term volatility patterns.
Probability Interpretations based on Standard Deviation:
50% probability: mean or expected value
68% probability: Values within 1 standard deviation of the mean (mean ± stdev) represent roughly 68% of the data in a normal distribution. This implies that around 68% of closing prices in the past period fell within this range.
95% probability: Expanding to 2 standard deviations (mean ± 2*stdev) captures approximately 95% of the data. So, in theory, there's a 95% chance that future closing prices will fall within this wider range.
99.7% probability: Going further to 3 standard deviations (mean ± 3*stdev) encompasses nearly 99.7% of the data. However, these extreme values become less likely as you move further away from the mean.
Key Features:
Uses manual calculations for mean and standard deviation, providing a hands-on approach.
Excludes the current bar's close price from calculations for more accurate analysis of past data.
Ensures valid index usage for robust calculation logic.
Employs unbiased standard deviation calculation for better statistical validity.
Offers clear visual representation of mean and volatility bands.
Considerations:
Manual calculations might have a slight performance impact compared to built-in functions.
Not a perfect normal distribution: Financial markets often deviate from a perfect normal distribution. This means probability interpretations based on standard deviation shouldn't be taken as absolute truths.
Non-stationarity: Market conditions and price behavior can change over time, impacting the validity of past data as a future predictor.
Other factors: Many other factors influence price movements beyond just the mean and standard deviation.
Always consider other technical and fundamental factors when making trading decisions.
Potential Use Cases:
Identifying periods of high or low volatility.
Discovering potential breakout or breakdown opportunities.
Comparing volatility across different timeframes.
Complementing other technical indicators for confirmation.
Understanding statistical concepts for financial analysis.
PercentX Trend Follower [Trendoscope]"Trendoscope" was born from our trading journey, where we first delved into the world of trend-following methods. Over time, we discovered the captivating allure of pattern analysis and the exciting challenges it presented, drawing us into exploring new horizons. However, our dedication to trend-following methodologies remains steadfast and continues to be an integral part of our core philosophy.
Here we are, introducing another effective trend-following methodology, employing straightforward yet powerful techniques.
🎲 Concepts
Introducing the innovative PercentX Oscillator , a representation of Bollinger PercentB and Keltner Percent K. This powerful tool offers users the flexibility to customize their PercentK oscillator, including options for the type of moving average and length.
The Oscillator Range is derived dynamically, utilizing two lengths - inner and outer. The inner length initiates the calculation of the oscillator's highest and lowest range, while the outer length is used for further calculations, involving either a moving average or the opposite side of the highest/lowest range, to obtain the oscillator ranges.
Next, the Oscillator Boundaries are derived by applying another round of high/low or moving average calculations on the oscillator range values.
Breakouts occur when the close price crosses above the upper boundary or below the lower boundary, signaling potential trading opportunities.
🎲 How to trade a breakout?
To reduce false signals, we employ a simple yet effective approach. Instead of executing market trades, we use stop orders on both sides at a certain distance from the current close price.
In case of an upper side breakout, a long stop order is placed at 1XATR above the close, and a short stop order is placed at 2XATR below the close. Conversely, for a lower side breakout, a short stop order is placed at 1XATR below the close, and a long stop order is placed at 2XATR above the ATR. As a trend following method, our first inclination is to trade on the side of breakout and not to find the reversals. Hence, higher multiplier is used for the direction opposite to the breakout.
The script provides users with the option to specify ATR multipliers for both sides.
Once a trade is initiated, the opposite side of the trade is converted into a stop-loss order. In the event of a breakout, the script will either place new long and short stop orders (if no existing trade is present) or update the stop-loss orders if a trade is currently running.
As a trend-following strategy, this script does not rely on specific targets or target levels. The objective is to run the trade as long as possible to generate profits. The trade is only stopped when the stop-loss is triggered, which is updated with every breakout to secure potential gains and minimize risks.
🎲 Default trade parameters
Script uses 10% equity per trade and up to 4 pyramid orders. Hence, the maximum invested amount at a time is 40% of the equity. Due to this, the comparison between buy and hold does not show a clear picture for the trade.
Feel free to explore and optimize the parameters further for your favorite symbols.
🎲 Visual representation
The blue line represents the PercentX Oscillator, orange and lime colored lines represent oscillator ranges. And red/green lines represent oscillator boundaries. Oscillator spikes upon breakout are highlighted with color fills.
Trading BehnamI've read around here various definitions for engulfs along the lines of "an engulf consumes all orders at a level to allow price to easily pass through it." . That doesn't make much sense to me, if the guys with billions of dollars want to break a level, they will break it and price will run off very often. We've seen it time and time again, they don't need to engulf levels to give us a nice opportunity to get into the trade with them, if they want to blast through a level, they will do so and price will run off. If they want an opportunity to accumulate more orders before price runs away, then it doesn't make sense to engulf the level, better to let price bounce from that level and then fill more orders, if the level breaks then they have to deliberately stop the market running away and move it back to the pre-engulf area as the market momentum would naturally make it run off after an engulf. Other ideas about it being a secret signal between the institutions don't make sense to me either. To be honest, I think any secret signals between competing institutions come in the form of them in a heavily encrypted chatroom telling each other what to do. This collusion has been reported on previously as traders align their activities at important moments.
So I think we can all agree something along the lines of:
Fakeout:
Fakeout is an engulf of an obvious swing high/low in order to stop out traders and induce breakout traders to trade in the wrong direction, thus generating liquidity for the move in the opposite direction.
What's not so clear is the definition of the engulf, I'd like to try to give some ideas on the purpose of the engulf and it's definition and see what others think.
Engulf:
An engulf is the consumption of orders at an important level, not necessarily a swing/high low but an area where we expect to see supply or demand. Taking out of the orders tells us that the supply or demand which was or should have been present is now not present and tells us the intent direction of the market. If price runs off as is often the case, this is not tradeable and is effectively just a "breakout", although breakouts are usually considered to be breaks of swing high and lows which are obvious to the average trader. For an engulf to be tradeable there must be a retrace following the engulf back in the original direction. This adds confusion as it initially resembles a fakeout. So the question is, why does price retrace after the engulf? If an engulf to the short side is a genuine engulf and not a fakeout to generate long liquidity, why does it not travel immediately south if market momentum is ultimately south.
A small pocket of demand beneath the engulfed level may make it retrace north as price moves between areas of liquidity, this pocket of demand may give price enough momentum to make it back up to the supply which broke the demand level if key market participants do not favour an immediate market drop.
Alternatively key market participants may step in and drive the market back upwards.
Price moving north back to supply after the engulf may occur or be favourable for various reasons:
1) We often talk about FO generating liquidity because of breakout trading, but an engulf can also generate liquidity from breakout traders. Short breakout traders would place their stop losses a small distance above the engulf (breakout). If key players absorb this selling or allow a demand level to push price back up, they can run price back up to supply taking out the stops of the breakout short traders and make quick profit and/or generate more liquidity for their own shorts.
2) To confuse traders, the ITs don't want the puzzle that is Forex to be easy to solve, if price never retraced after an engulf then engulfs of all levels would be FOs. Price would either break and immediately runoff or it would turn and runoff in the other direction. In order to keep people confused about whether price is faking out or breaking out, sometimes price should whipsaw by breaking out, briefly faking out and then continuing in the direction of the breakout. This whipsaw pattern is to us a tradeable engulf.
3) Market momentum may be mixed, key players are indecisive or inactive or the market is behaving erratically.
4) As previously mentioned there may be a small pocket of supply/demand just past the engulf which is causing a reaction. This could also be viewed as a FO on a different timeframe. If the market engulfs an H1 demand level, then retraces for 30 mins upwards to supply, this engulf would be a valid and very profitable FO for an M1 trader looking to get long.
Volume ChartVolume data can be interpreted in many different ways. This is a very basic script and novel idea to display volume as a chart. The purpose of this script is to visually help identify volume breakouts and other common chart patterns. While this indicator could be useful for finding big moves and early reversals it not reliable for determining the direction of the move.
Below is an example of a volume breakout:
Below is confirmation of the second ear in the batman pattern:
Lower highs and higher lows can give early signs of a reversal:
Below we can see retailers getting pumped and dumped on during the gaps while they sleep:
V Bottom & V Top Pattern [Misu]█ This indicator shows V bottom & V top patterns as well as potential V bottom & V top.
These V bottom & V top are chart powerful reversal patterns.
They appear in all markets and time-frames, but due to the nature of the aggressive moves that take place when a market reverses direction, it can be difficult to identify this pattern in real-time.
To address this problem, I added potential V pattern as well as the confirmed one.
█ Usages:
You can use V top & V bottoms for reversal zones.
You can use it for scalping strategies, as a main buy & sell signal.
Potential V patterns can be used to anticipate the market, in addition to volatility or momentum indicators, for example.
█ How it works?
This indicator uses pivot points to determine potential V patterns and confirm them.
Paramaters are available to filter breakouts of varying strengths.
Patterns also have a "max number bars" to be validated.
█ Why a Strategy type indicator?
Due to the many different parameters, this indicator is a strategy type.
This way you can overview the best settings depending on your pair & timeframe.
Parameters are available to filter.
█ Parameters:
Deviation: Parameter used to calculate parameters.
Depth: Parameter used to calculate parameters.
Confirmation Type: Type of signal used to confirme the pattern.
> Mid Pivot: pattern will confirm on mid pivot breakout.
> Opposit Pivot: pattern will confirm on opposit pivot breakout.
> No confirmation: no confirmation.
Lenght Avg Body: Lenght used to calculate the average body size.
First Breakout Factor: This factor multiplied by the "body avg" filters out the non-significant breakout of potential V pattern.
Confirmation Breakout Factor: This factor multiplied by the "body avg" filters out the non-significant breakout for the confirmation.
Max Bars Confirmation: The maximum number of bars needed to validate the pattern.

Donchian Screener█ OVERVIEW
This is a screener script for the Donchian Channel indicator . It's an excellent indicator for trend following, a trading strategy which tries to take advantage of long, medium or short-term moves that seem to play out in various markets.
█ DESCRIPTION
The screener works by scanning through up to 10 symbols and list down symbols that are currently breaking through the upper or lower band as definied by the Donchian Channels, at which point the market signals the start of a bullish or bearish trend.
█ HOW TO USE
After adding the indicator, open the script settings and type the symbol name and length to be used on the Donchian Channels for each stock.
█ PARAMETERS
- Use High/Low Price Breakouts: check this box if you want to use price high/low instead of price close to identify breakouts
- Panel Position: choose whether you want to position the panel on the top, middle or bottom right side of the graph (default is top)
- Default Timeframe: what timeframe to use on the screener (default is daily)
- Ticker: the ticker name you want to monitor
- Length: length parameter used on Donchian Channel indicator
█ FEATURES
The screener can scan up to 10 symbols each time.
█ LIMITATIONS
The screener will scan the symbols breaking out bands on the current bar, and as such, there maybe some delays depending on the stock/ etf /crypto you choose. Some exchanges require an additional subscription to get realtime data.
Trend Following with Donchian Channels and MACDThis is a trend following system based on the Donchian Channels. Instead of using a simple moving average crossover, this system uses the MACD as the trendfilter:
Long positions:
* Price makes a new 50 day high,
* The MACD-line crosses above or is above the Signal-line.
* Both the MACD and the Signal-lines are above the zero-line.
Short positions:
* Price makes a new 50 day low,
* The MACD-line crosses below or is below the Signal-line.
* Both the MACD and the Signal-lines are below the zero-line.
Stoploss:
The initial and the trailing stoploss are 4 ATRs away from the price.
Hi-Lo TrendThis script uses the most recent low/high and candle size to determine trend breakouts.
The trend is determined buy whether the most recent price extreme within the Lookback period is a high or low. If it is a most recent high, it is an uptrend, if it is a lwo, a downtrend.
Bands are created using the average absolute difference of current minus previous close over the MABandPeriod, multiplied by the MABandMultiplier.
If the current close minus previous close is above/below the band, then a blue dot is painted and it is a breakout.
a buy alert fires when a downtrend becomes an uptrend and a breakout above the bands happens.
A sell alert fires when an uptrend becomes a downtrend and a breakout below the bands happns.
2 Candles Inside ATR2 agitated candles falling inside ATR range, awaiting possibly a big move.
Buy / Sell signals at combined high / low can be used as order with other as stop loss.
Counter trade, when this minimal stop loss is hit, is also as useful. However, wait till the SL candle closes, before opening position on the other side.

Hikkake PatternLifted description from web:
Hikkake means to trap, trick, or ensnare. Primarily, this price pattern seeks to identify inside bar breakouts and profit from their failures.
An inside bar is a price bar that is entirely within the range of the preceding price bar. Inside bars are typical on price charts of most timeframes.
While you’ll often find inside bars in congested markets, they also offer a low-risk entry point for price action traders. The contracted range of an inside bar offers a natural tight stop-loss.
Hence, inside bar breakouts seem attractive. However, if you are patient and focus on identifying false breakouts, you might be able to find more reliable trading setups in the form of Hikkakes.
In a nutshell, the Hikkake pattern offers a systematic approach to trading false inside bar breakouts.
As a filter I incorporated VWAP into the code to only trigger Bullish / Bearish signals when price is Above/Below VWAP respectively. The ATR is used to create a Stop buffer (red cross) for the Entry signal ( green dot ). The R1 and R2 (orange squares) are two possible profit targets that are customizable to different Risk multiples based upon the difference between Entry and Stop.
Asymmetric Market Momentum Channel█ OVERVIEW
"Asymmetric Market Momentum Channel" is a dynamic channel indicator that adjusts its width based on the actual strength and asymmetry of market momentum. Thanks to the asymmetric band expansion triggered by strong candles, it significantly reduces false breakouts while remaining highly sensitive to genuine moves.
█ CONCEPTS
Traditional volatility channels react too slowly or too uniformly. This indicator introduces asymmetry:
- After a strong bullish candle with a large body and long upper wick, the upper band is pushed much farther than the lower one.
- After a strong bearish candle, the lower band expands more.
As a result, the channel "remembers" the direction of the last real momentum.
- With wide bands (default base_scale 200+), it excels in contrarian (reversal) strategies – price tends to return to the midline, producing clean reversal signals.
- With narrow bands (base_scale set to 100–150), it behaves like a sensitive breakout channel – breakouts from a tight channel deliver very high-quality trend-continuation signals.
█ FEATURES
Fully adjustable asymmetric momentum channel:
- length – SMA period for midline and average range (default 30)
- base_scale – base channel width in % of average candle range (default 200%)
- strength – asymmetry intensity (higher = stronger expansion after powerful candles)
- smooth_len – EMA smoothing of the expansion (default 10)
Visualization:
- Upper band – red, lower band – green
- Midline SMA – gray
- Gradient background fill (enabled by default) – red above midline, green below; intensity controlled by Background Intensity (85 = strong, 95 = very subtle)
Signal modes:
- Contrarian (Reversal) – reversal signals on price returning inside the channel after exceeding it + confirming candle color
- Trend Continuation (Breakout) – classic breakout signals (recommended to lower base_scale to 100–150 for faster triggers)
- Both – displays both types simultaneously
Visual signals:
- Small green triangles below the bar → bullish signal
- Small red triangles above the bar → bearish signal
Alerts: Bullish Signal, Bearish Signal, Any Signal, Breakout Up, Breakout Down
█ HOW TO USE
Add the indicator to your TradingView chart and adjust the settings:
Key parameter:
- base_scale – defines the indicator’s character:
→ 200–300% → wide channel → Contrarian (reversal) mode
→ 100–150% → narrow channel → Trend Continuation (breakout) mode
- strength (default 1.0)
- length (30) – higher values = smoother, more trend-following behavior
smooth_len (10) – lower values = faster reaction to new momentum
Interpretation:
- Wide channel (base_scale ≥ 200) + Contrarian mode → mean-reversion trading
- Narrow channel (base_scale 100–150) + Breakout mode → aggressive trend-following on breakouts
- Both mode works universally – simply change base_scale to completely switch the indicator’s behavior
█ APPLICATIONS
- Scalping & daytrading – narrow channel + Breakout mode on 5–15 min
- Swing trading – narrow or wide channel + Both mode on H1–D1
- Mean-reversion – wide channel + Contrarian mode
- Trend filter – longs only above midline, shorts only below
█ NOTES
- In very strong one-sided trends, contrarian signals generate many false entries – switch exclusively to Trend Continuation (Breakout) mode with a narrow channel.
- Best performance on instruments with clear volatility and volume.
- Always match base_scale to your strategy (wide = reversal, narrow = breakout).
- Combining with volume, support/resistance levels, or indicators like MACD/RSI dramatically improves signal quality.
Distribution Day Grading [Blk0ut]Distribution Day Grading
This script is designed to give traders and investors a fast, objective, and modern read on market health by analyzing distribution days, and stall days, two forms of institutional selling that often begin to appear before trend weakness, failed breakouts, and sharp corrections.
The goal of this script isn’t to predict tops or bottoms, but instead, it measures the character of the tape in a way that’s simple, visual, and immediately actionable.
While distribution analysis has existed for decades, my implementation is, I think, a little more adaptive. Traditional rules for identifying distribution days, coming from CANSLIM methodology, were built for markets which had lower volatility, different liquidity profiles, and slower institutional rotation. This script updates the traditional method with modernized thresholds, recency-weighted decay, stall-day logic, and dynamic presets tuned uniquely for the personality of each major U.S. index (you can change the values yourself as well).
The results are displayed as a compact letter-grade that quantitatively reflects a measure of how much institutional supply has been hitting the market, as well as how recently. This helps determine whether conditions are supportive of breakouts, mean reversion trades, aggressive trend trades, or whether caution and lighter sizing are warranted.
__________________________________________________________________________________
How It Works
The script evaluates each bar for two conditions:
1. Distribution Day
A bar qualifies as distribution when:
- Price closes down beyond a threshold (default 0.30%, adjustable)
- Volume is higher than the prior session (optional toggle)
Distribution days typically represent active institutional selling .
2. Stall Day
A softer form of supply:
-Price remains flat to slightly negative within a small threshold
-Close < open
-Volume higher than prior day
Stall days represent a passive distribution or hidden supply .
Each distribution day is counted as 1 unit by the script, each stall day as 0.5 units.
Recency Weighting
The script applies an optional half-life decay so that fresh distribution matters more than old distribution. This mimics the “aging out” effect that professional traders use, but does it in a smoother, more mathematically consistent way.
The script then produces:
A weighted distribution score
A raw distribution + stall count
A letter grade from A → F
Let's talk about the letters...
_________________________________________________________________________________
Letter Grade Meaning
A — Very Healthy Tape
Minimal institutional selling.
Breakouts behave better, momentum holds, pullbacks are shallow, upside targets are hit more consistently.
B — Healthy / Slight Caution
Some isolated supply but nothing structural.
Conditions remain favorable for trend trades, pullbacks, and breakout continuation.
C — Mixed / Caution Warranted
Distribution is building.
Breakouts begin to fail faster, candles widen, rotation becomes unstable, and risk/reward compresses.
D — Weak / Risk Elevated
Institutional selling is becoming persistent.
Failed breakouts, sharp reversals, and failed rallies become more common. Position sizing should tighten.
F — Clear Deterioration
Broad, repeated institutional distribution.
This is where major tops, deeper pullbacks, and corrections often begin to form underneath the surface.
_________________________________________________________________________________
Index-Tuned Presets (Auto Mode)
Market structure varies dramatically across indices.
To address this, the script includes auto-detect presets for:
SPY / SPX equivalents
QQQ / NASDAQ-100 equivalents
IWM / Russell 2000 equivalents
DIA / Dow 30 equivalents
Each preset contains optimized values based on volatility, liquidity, noise, and institutional behavior:
SPY / SPX
Low noise, deep liquidity → classic thresholds work well.
Distribution thresholds remain conservative.
QQQ
Higher volatility → requires a slightly larger down-percentage filter to avoid false signals.
IWM
Noisiest of the major indices → requires much stricter thresholds to filter out junk signals.
DIA
Slowest-moving index → tighter conditions catch real distribution earlier.
The script automatically detects which symbol family you’re viewing and loads the appropriate preset unless manual overrides are enabled.
__________________________________________________________________________________
How to Interpret This Indicator
Grade A–B:
Breakouts have higher odds of clean continuation
Mean reversion is smoother
Position sizing can be more assertive
Grade C:
Start tightening risk
Focus on A- setups, not B- or C- risk ideas
Grade D–F:
Expect lower win rates
Expect breakout failures
Favor countertrend plays or reduced exposure
Take faster profits
____________________________
This indicator should help traders prevent themselves from fighting the tape or sizing aggressively when the underlying environment is deteriorating through:
- Modernized distribution logic, not the 1990s thresholds
- Recency-weighted decay instead of the old 5-week “aging out”
- Stall-day detection for subtle institutional supply
- Auto-presets tuned per index, adjusting thresholds to match volatility and liquidity
- Unified letter-grade scoring for visual clarity
- Independent application for any trading style, it helps with trend, momentum, mean reversion, and options

Candle Volume CoreIA VolCore — Candle Volume Core
Indicator Overview
IA VolCore is an intra‑candle volume analysis tool that shows where the core traded volume is concentrated inside each candle.
It visualizes how buyers and sellers interacted within the bar and highlights key levels and zones where the highest activity takes place.
How Calculations Work
The indicator uses the lowest available timeframe data to calculate volume distribution inside each candle.
If you have a Premium or higher subscription, VolCore uses second‑based data for the most accurate results. Older candles (where second‑data is no longer available due to platform limits) are calculated using minute data. The indicator can therefore be used on any timeframe from 1 minute and higher.
If you do not have Premium, the indicator uses minute‑based data only, so it is recommended to use it from the daily timeframe and above.
Example of Calculation
If the chart timeframe is 1 hour and the lowest available timeframe is 1‑second data, the indicator loads 3600 1‑second candles. Each 1‑second candle has a known volume, which is evenly distributed across its own price range.
The 1‑hour candle is then divided into a number of price ranges based on the Candle Volume Resolution parameter. The volumes of all 3600 1-second candles are then aggregated into the corresponding price ranges of the hourly candle.
The final result is a detailed intra‑candle volume map for the entire hour — calculated using the most precise data available.
Custom Timeframe Parameter
If Use Custom Timeframe is enabled and a timeframe is selected, all calculations will be performed strictly using this specified timeframe.
For example: if the chart is on 1D, the user has 1‑second data available, but Custom TF is set to 1 minute, then the volume distribution inside each daily candle will be calculated using 1‑minute candles.
Key Features
Candle Volume Resolution — defines how many price ranges each candle is divided into (3–50,000). All calculations in the indicator are based on this resolution.
Max Volume Level — displays the price level inside the candle where the maximum volume occurred.
% of Volume (1, 2, 3) — defines percentages of the candle's total volume (e.g., 33%, 66%, 50%). For each percentage, VolCore finds the minimum price range containing that share of volume. You can view the corresponding volume values for these shares in histogram form via the Show: Vol % 1–3 parameters. The actual intra-candle zones are displayed using the Show area option.
Volume % for Density — sets the volume percentage used to calculate Vol Density, which reflects how concentrated the volume is inside the selected price range.
Display Parameters (Show)
Show: Vol % 1–3 — shows histograms of volume share zones based on the selected "% of Volume" parameters (with color logic applied).
Show: Max Volume Value — displays the maximum internal volume value for each candle as a histogram (with color logic applied).
Show: Volume — displays the candle's total volume (with color logic applied).
Show: Vol Density — shows the density of volume distribution inside the candle for the selected volume percentage (with color logic applied).
Example Use Cases (not a complete list)
IA VolCore shows where liquidity forms inside each candle, how volume is distributed, and how concentrated trading activity is.
Detecting False Breakouts
If a breakout candle shows increased volume, and after the breakout the core volume forms beyond the level, but the price moves back — VolCore provides a strong signal of a false breakout.
Examples:
Identifying Support & Resistance Zones
If Max Volume Level repeatedly forms in the same internal range over multiple candles, this indicates a hidden support or resistance level.
Example:
Who This Indicator Is For
For traders using volume‑based and contextual market analysis, and for IA (Initiative Analysis) ecosystem users who want a deeper understanding of intra‑candle structure.
Histogram Color Logic
IA VolCore uses three color shades to highlight volume behavior relative to previous candles:
light shade — normal volume, no significant change,
medium shade — volume exceeds both previous candles,
dark shade — volume exceeds the sum of the previous two candles.
This helps quickly spot growing activity and potential shifts in market pressure.
Style Settings
Line styles, histogram styles, and colors can be customized in the indicator’s Style tab.
High Volume Zones with Signals – HVZ█ OVERVIEW
"High Volume Zones with Signals – HVZ" is a technical analysis indicator that identifies High Volume Zones (HVZ) on the chart and draws them as fully customizable boxes. Perfect for traders using price action, ICT, and Smart Money Concepts. The indicator highlights key volume-based support/resistance levels, detects potential consolidation zones (very large candles), and generates precise breakout and exit signals. Flexible volume filters, ATR filter, and visual styling options ensure a clean and highly effective chart.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator detects candles with volume significantly above the average (default ≥ 2× SMA of volume over 20 periods). Such candles often signal institutional activity and create strong supply/demand zones.
The ATR filter additionally identifies very large candles – frequently a sign of market capitulation (panic buying/selling). Within the range of such a candle, prolonged consolidation often occurs, especially on higher timeframes (e.g., 4H and above).
Why are HVZ important? High-volume zones are areas where the market has left a large number of orders – institutions return there to “refresh” liquidity before the next move. A breakout against the zone’s character triggers a Break signal:
- Bullish HVZ broken downward (close below the lower boundary) → Break Down (sell),
- Bearish HVZ broken upward (close above the upper boundary) → Break Up (buy).
Note: The indicator requires real exchange volume – it will not work correctly on instruments without reported volume (e.g., certain CFDs or forex).
█ FEATURES
- HVZ Detection: Automatic identification of high-volume zones with Volume SMA Length and Volume Multiplier filters; historical initialization up to 500 candles back.
- ATR Filter: Optional detection of very large candles (potential consolidation/capitulation) using - ATR Length and ATR Multiplier; three action modes:
Skip Zone – large candle creates no zone,
Separate Color – zone is drawn in a distinct style (gray by default),
Normal Zone – treated like a regular HVZ.
- Gray zones (large candles, Separate Color): generate exactly the same Break signals as regular zones – based solely on the original candle direction (bullish → Break Down on lower break, bearish → Break Up on upper break). Gray color is only a visual marker for potential consolidation/capitulation zones.
- Customizable Boxes: Separate styles for bullish and bearish zones (border color, background gradient, line thickness and style); adjustable background and 50 % midline transparency.
- Break & Exit Signals:
Break Up/Down – green/red triangle after a candle closes outside the zone (zone disappears, triangle remains as a trace).
Exit Up/Down – green/red circle when price leaves the zone without a full breakout.
Signal Type option: Break, Exit, or Both.
- Midline: Automatic dashed line at the 50 % zone level with independent transparency control.
- Chart Cleanup: Automatic removal of inactive zones older than 500 candles (max_boxes_count=500).
- Alerts: Built-in alerts for Break Up and Break Down with clear messages.
█ HOW TO USE
Add to Chart: Paste the script in Pine Editor or find it in TradingView’s indicator library.
Configure Settings:
- Volume Filter: Volume SMA Length (default 20) and Volume Multiplier (default 2.0) – higher multiplier = fewer but stronger zones.
- ATR Filter: Enable/disable, set ATR Length (14) and ATR Multiplier (3.5); choose action for very large candles (Skip Zone / Separate Color / Normal Zone).
- Box Style: Background transparency (90) and midline transparency (70).
- Bull/Bear Box Style: Border and gradient colors, line thickness (1-5).
- ATR Style: Separate colors for large-candle zones (gray by default).
- Signal Settings: Choose Signal Type (Break/Exit/Both) and signal colors.
Signal Interpretation:
- Break Up (green triangle below bar): Bearish HVZ broken upward → buy signal, continuation of uptrend.
- Break Down (red triangle above bar): Bullish HVZ broken downward → sell signal, continuation of downtrend.
- Exit Up/Down (circles): Price leaves zone without breakout – may signal end of correction or reversal setup.
- HVZ Zones: Price often returns to high-volume zones to clear orders. An unfilled zone remains a price magnet.
- 50 % Level (midline): Ideal target for partial take-profit or reaction point inside the zone.
Combine signals with other tools (e.g., RSI, MACD, higher timeframes) for higher confidence.
█ APPLICATIONS
- Price Action & ICT: HVZ act as dynamic S/R; in an uptrend look for buys after breaking a bearish HVZ, in a downtrend look for sells after breaking a bullish HVZ. If you trade retests instead of breakouts, increase Volume Multiplier to 2.5-3.0 – fewer zones but much stronger. Note that after breaking a very strong zone, price often pulls back deeply before continuing.
- Breakout Strategies: For maximum Break signals, lower Volume Multiplier to 1.5-1.8 – gives many high-quality entries in trending markets. Always trade in the direction of the prevailing trend (e.g., only longs in uptrends). Enter after a Break signal with confirmation from volume or momentum (MACD above zero, RSI >50 for longs, <50 for shorts).
█ NOTES
- The indicator requires real exchange volume – it will not function properly on instruments without reported volume (e.g., certain CFDs, forex).
- Always confirm signals with additional context (market structure, higher timeframe).

Ravio This indicator identifies false breakouts and confirmed breakouts on any timeframe. It automatically analyzes price action around key levels (such as recent highs and lows) to detect when the price temporarily breaks above or below a level but then quickly returns — signaling a false breakout.
When a breakout is confirmed (price holds beyond the level with strong volume or momentum), the indicator highlights it with a different color.
