Momentum Index [BigBeluga]The Momentum Index is an innovative indicator designed to measure the momentum of price action by analyzing the distribution of positive and negative momentum values over a defined period. By incorporating delta-based calculations and smoothing techniques, it provides traders with a clear and actionable representation of market momentum dynamics.
🔵 Key Features:
Delta-Based Momentum Analysis:
Calculates the momentum of price by comparing its current state to its value from a defined number of bars back.
Inside a loop, it evaluates whether momentum values are above or below zero, producing a delta value that reflects the net momentum direction and intensity.
Double EMA Smoothing:
Smooths the raw delta-based momentum values with a double EMA filter, reducing noise and providing a clearer trend signal.
tmi(len) =>
sum = 0.0
sum1 = 0.0
above = 0.0
below = 0.0
src_ = src - src
for i = 0 to len
sum := sum + (src_ > nz(src_ ) ? 1 : -1)
sum1 := sum1 + (sum > 0 ? 1 : -1)
sum1 := emaEma(sum1, 10)
for i = 1 to len
above := above + (sum1 > 0 ? 1 : 0)
below := below + (sum1 > 0 ? 0 : 1)
Directional Momentum Signals:
Generates momentum shift signals and displays them on both the oscillator and the main chart:
- △ Aqua Triangles: Represent upward momentum shifts.
- ▽ Red Triangles: Represent downward momentum shifts.
Dynamic Gradient Display:
Highlights momentum zones with gradient fills:
- Aqua shades for positive momentum (above zero).
- Red shades for negative momentum (below zero).
Dashboard Display:
A dashboard summarizing the count of momentum values above and below zero for the defined period (Sentiment Length e.g. 100), helping traders assess market sentiment at a glance.
🔵 How It Works:
The indicator takes price momentum as its source and evaluates the number of momentum values above and below zero within a defined period.
The delta calculation aggregates this information, providing a net representation of the prevailing market momentum.
A double EMA filter is applied to the delta values, smoothing the momentum line and enhancing signal clarity.
Momentum shifts are highlighted with visual signals on the oscillator and price chart, while the gradient display provides a visual representation of intensity.
🔵 Use Cases:
Momentum Tracking: Identify whether market momentum is predominantly bullish or bearish.
Signal Confirmation: Use chart-based signals to confirm potential trend reversals or continuation.
Analyze Market Strength: Leverage the dashboard to quickly assess the distribution of momentum over the chosen period.
Overbought/Oversold Conditions: Utilize gradient zones to detect areas of momentum extremes and possible price exhaustion.
Momentum Index offers a refined approach to analyzing momentum dynamics, combining delta-based calculations with smoothing techniques and intuitive visuals, making it an essential tool for traders looking to anticipate market movements effectively.
Optimized ADX DI CCI Strategy### Key Features:
- Combines ADX, DI+/-, CCI, and RSI for signal generation.
- Supports customizable timeframes for indicators.
- Offers multiple exit conditions (Moving Average cross, ADX change, performance-based stop-loss).
- Tracks and displays trade statistics (e.g., win rate, capital growth, profit factor).
- Visualizes trades with labels and optional background coloring.
- Allows countertrading (opening an opposite trade after closing one).
1. **Indicator Calculation**:
- **ADX and DI+/-**: Calculated using the `ta.dmi` function with user-defined lengths for DI and ADX smoothing.
- **CCI**: Computed using the `ta.cci` function with a configurable source (default: `hlc3`) and length.

2. **Signal Generation**:
- **Buy Signal**: Triggered when DI+ > DI- (or DI+ crosses over DI-), CCI > MA (or CCI crosses over MA), and optional ADX/RSI filters are satisfied.
- **Sell Signal**: Triggered when DI+ < DI- (or DI- crosses over DI+), CCI < MA (or CCI crosses under MA), and optional ADX/RSI filters are satisfied.
3. **Trade Execution**:
- **Entry**: Long or short trades are opened using `strategy.entry` when signals are detected, provided trading is allowed (`allow_long`/`allow_short`) and equity is positive.
- **Exit**: Trades can be closed based on:
- Opposite signal (if no other exit conditions are used).
- MA cross (price crossing below/above the exit MA for long/short trades).
- ADX percentage change exceeding a threshold.
- Performance-based stop-loss (trade loss exceeding a percentage).
- **Countertrading**: If enabled, closing a trade triggers an opposite trade (e.g., closing a long opens a short).
4. **Visualization**:
- Labels are plotted at trade entries/exits (e.g., "BUY," "SELL," arrows).
- Optional background coloring highlights open trades (green for long, red for short).
- A statistics table displays real-time metrics (e.g., capital, win rates).

Sequential Pattern Strength [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Sequential Pattern Strength indicator measures the power and sustainability of consecutive price movements by tracking unbroken sequences of up or down closes. It incorporates sequence quality assessment, price extension analysis, and automatic exhaustion detection to help traders identify when strong trends are losing momentum and approaching potential reversal or continuation points.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator's key insight lies in its sequential pattern tracking system, where pattern strength is measured by analyzing consecutive price movements and their sustainability:
if close > close
upSequence := upSequence + 1
downSequence := 0
else if close < close
downSequence := downSequence + 1
upSequence := 0
The system calculates sequence quality by measuring how "perfect" the consecutive moves are:
perfectMoves = math.max(upSequence, downSequence)
totalMoves = math.abs(bar_index - ta.valuewhen(upSequence == 1 or downSequence == 1, bar_index, 0))
sequenceQuality = totalMoves > 0 ? perfectMoves / totalMoves : 1.0
First, it tracks price extension from the sequence starting point:
priceExtension = (close - sequenceStartPrice) / sequenceStartPrice * 100
Then, pattern exhaustion is identified when sequences become overextended:
isExhausted = math.abs(currentSequence) >= maxSequence or
math.abs(priceExtension) > resetThreshold * math.abs(currentSequence)
Finally, the pattern strength combines sequence length, quality, and price movement with momentum enhancement:
patternStrength = currentSequence * sequenceQuality * (1 + math.abs(priceExtension) / 10)
enhancedSignal = patternStrength + momentum * 10
signal = ta.ema(enhancedSignal, smooth)
This creates a sequence-based momentum indicator that combines consecutive movement analysis with pattern sustainability assessment, providing traders with both directional signals and exhaustion insights for entry/exit timing.
🟢 Signal Interpretation
Positive Values (Above Zero): Sequential pattern strength indicating bullish momentum with consecutive upward price movements and sustained buying pressure = Long/Buy opportunities
Negative Values (Below Zero): Sequential pattern strength indicating bearish momentum with consecutive downward price movements and sustained selling pressure = Short/Sell opportunities
Zero Line Crosses: Pattern transitions between bullish and bearish regimes, indicating potential trend changes or momentum shifts when sequences break
Upper Threshold Zone: Area above maximum sequence threshold (2x maxSequence) indicating extremely strong bullish patterns approaching exhaustion levels
Lower Threshold Zone: Area below negative threshold (-2x maxSequence) indicating extremely strong bearish patterns approaching exhaustion levels
Pivot Points. High & Lows By Reversal PercentageLibrary "Pivot Points. High & Lows By Reversal Percentage" by Jal9000
This Pine Script library provides a robust function for identifying and tracking pivot points (reversal points) in price data, suitable for integration into custom trading indicators and strategies.
🛠️ Main Features:
- ✅ Identifies pivot highs and lows based on configurable price movement thresholds.
- ✅ Lightweight. No candle backtracing used. Much less computation heavy.
- ✅ Supports multiple calls (with different values) within a single script.
- ✅ Compatible with request.security for multi-timeframe analysis.
- ✅ Returns both confirmed and temporary pivots for flexible integration.
- ✅ Pinescript V5 and V6 compliant code.
Purpose:
The pivots library enables Pine Script developers to easily add pivot point detection to their scripts. It identifies significant price reversals by evaluating price movements against a minimum range threshold ( min_range_pct ) and confirming reversals based on a percentage ( reversal_pct ) of the prior trend’s magnitude. The library supports multiple simultaneous calls with different settings, making it ideal for multi-timeframe strategies.
How It Works:
The library’s f_calculatePivot function tracks price movements to detect pivot points:
Minimum Range Threshold : A potential pivot is considered if the price moves beyond the min_range_pct percentage of the current high (for a high pivot) or low (for a low pivot), ensuring sufficient movement.
Reversal Confirmation : A pivot is confirmed if the price reverses from the potential pivot by at least the reversal_pct percentage of the distance between the last confirmed pivot and the current potential pivot, measuring the retracement relative to the prior trend’s magnitude.
The function alternates between tracking highs (in an uptrend) and lows (in a downtrend), updating the trend when a pivot is confirmed.
State management uses an array of pivot_state objects, allowing independent calculations for different timeframes and min_range_pct values within the same script.
## Technical Reference
Functions:
f_calculatePivot(series float _high, series float _low, float _min_range_pct, float _reversal_pct) →

var pivots.pivot prev_confirmed_pivot = na
// Draw the line if a new pivot is confirmed and previous pivot exists
if is_new_pivot
if not na(prev_confirmed_pivot) and not na(new_confirmed_pivot)
line.new(x1 = prev_confirmed_pivot.idx, y1 = prev_confirmed_pivot.prc, x2 = new_confirmed_pivot.idx, y2 = new_confirmed_pivot.prc, color = color.blue, width = 1)
prev_confirmed_pivot := new_confirmed_pivot

Pivot Matrix & Multi-Timeframe Support-Resistance Analytics________________________________________
📘 Study Material for Pivot Matrix & Multi Timeframe Support-Resistance Analytics
(By aiTrendview — Educational Use Only)
________________________________________
🎯 Introduction
The Pivot Matrix & Multi Timeframe Support-Resistance Analytics indicator is designed to help traders visualize pivot points, support/resistance levels, VWAP, and volume flow analytics all in one place. Rather than giving explicit buy/sell calls, the dashboard provides reference insights so a learner may understand how different technical levels interact in real time.
This document explains its functionality step by step with formulas and usage guides.
________________________________________
1️⃣ Pivot System Logic
Pivot points are classic tools for mapping market support and resistance levels.
✦ How Calculated?
Using the Traditional Method:
• Pivot Point (PP):
PP=Highprev+Lowprev+Closeprev3PP = \frac{High_{prev} + Low_{prev} + Close_{prev}}{3}PP=3Highprev+Lowprev+Closeprev
• First Support/Resistance:
R1=2×PP−Lowprev,S1=2×PP−HighprevR1 = 2 \times PP - Low_{prev}, \quad S1 = 2 \times PP - High_{prev}R1=2×PP−Lowprev,S1=2×PP−Highprev
• Second Support/Resistance:
R2=PP+(Highprev−Lowprev),S2=PP−(Highprev−Lowprev)R2 = PP + (High_{prev} - Low_{prev}), \quad S2 = PP - (High_{prev} - Low_{prev})R2=PP+(Highprev−Lowprev),S2=PP−(Highprev−Lowprev)
• Third Levels:
R3=Highprev+2×(PP−Lowprev),S3=Lowprev−2×(Highprev−PP)R3 = High_{prev} + 2 \times (PP - Low_{prev}), \quad S3 = Low_{prev} - 2 \times (High_{prev} - PP)R3=Highprev+2×(PP−Lowprev),S3=Lowprev−2×(Highprev−PP)
• Similarly, R4/R5 and S4/S5 are extrapolated from extended range multipliers.
✦ How Used?
• Price above PP → bullish control bias.
• Price below PP → bearish control bias.
• R1–R5 levels act as resistances; S1–S5 act as supports.
Learners should watch how candles behave when approaching R/S zones to spot breakout vs. rejection conditions.
________________________________________
2️⃣ Multi Timeframe Logic
The indicator allows using daily-based pivot values (via request.security). This ensures alignment with institutional daily levels, not just intraday recalculations.
✦ Teaching Value
Understanding MTF pivots shows how markets respect higher timeframe levels (daily > intraday, weekly > daily). This helps learners grasp nested support-resistance structures.
________________________________________
3️⃣ VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
Formula:
VWAPt=∑(Pricei×Volumei)∑(Volumei),Pricei=High+Low+Close3VWAP_t = \frac{\sum (Price_i \times Volume_i)}{\sum (Volume_i)}, \quad Price_i = \frac{High + Low + Close}{3}VWAPt=∑(Volumei)∑(Pricei×Volumei),Pricei=3High+Low+Close
Usage:
• VWAP is used as an institutional benchmark of fair value.
• Above VWAP = bullish flow.
• Below VWAP = bearish flow.
Learners should check whether price respects VWAP as a magnet or uses it as support/resistance.
________________________________________
4️⃣ Volume Flow Analysis
The script classifies buy volume, sell volume, and neutral volume.
• Buy Volume = if close > open.
• Sell Volume = if close < open.
• Neutral Volume = if close = open.
For daily tracking:
Buy%=DayBuyVolDayTotalVol×100,Sell%=DaySellVolDayTotalVol×100Buy\% = \frac{DayBuyVol}{DayTotalVol} \times 100, \quad Sell\% = \frac{DaySellVol}{DayTotalVol} \times 100Buy%=DayTotalVolDayBuyVol×100,Sell%=DayTotalVolDaySellVol×100
Usage for Learners:
• Dominant Buy% → accumulation/ bullish pressure.
• Dominant Sell% → distribution/ bearish pressure.
• Balanced → sideways liquidity building.
This teaches observation of order flow bias rather than relying only on price.
________________________________________
5️⃣ Dashboard Progress Bars & Colors
The script uses visual progress bars and dynamic colors for clarity. For example:
• VWAP Backgrounds: Green shades when price strongly above VWAP, Red when below.
• Volume Bars: More green blocks mean buying dominance, red means selling pressure.
This visual design turns concepts into easy-to-digest cues, useful for training.
________________________________________
6️⃣ Market Status Summary
Finally, the dashboard synthesizes all data points:
• Price vs Pivot (above or below).
• Price vs VWAP (above or below).
• Volume Pressure (buy side vs sell side).
Status Rule:
• If all three align bullish → Status box turns green.
• If mixed → Neutral grey.
• If bearish dominance → weaker tone.
Why Important?
This teaches learners that market conditions should align in confluence across indicators before confidence arises.

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

Fractal Circles#### FRACTAL CIRCLES ####
I combined 2 of my best indicators Fractal Waves (Simplified) and Circles.
Combining the Fractal and Gann levels makes for a very simple trading strategy.
Core Functionality
Gann Circle Levels: This indicator plots mathematical support and resistance levels based on Gann theory, including 360/2, 360/3, and doubly strong levels. The system automatically adjusts to any price range using an intelligent multiplier system, making it suitable for forex, stocks, crypto, or any market.
Fractal Wave Analysis: Integrates real-time trend analysis from both current and higher timeframes. Shows the current price range boundaries (high/low) and trend direction through dynamic lines and background fills, helping traders understand market structure.
Key Trading Benefits
Active Level Detection: The closest Gann level to current price is automatically highlighted in green with increased line thickness. This eliminates guesswork about which level is most likely to act as immediate support or resistance.
Real-Time Price Tracking: A customizable line follows current price with an offset to the right, projecting where price sits relative to upcoming levels. A gradient-filled box visualizes the exact distance between current price and the active Gann level.
Multi-Timeframe Context: View fractal waves from higher timeframes while maintaining current timeframe precision. This helps identify whether short-term moves align with or contradict longer-term structure.
Smart Alert System: Comprehensive alerts trigger when price crosses any Gann level, with options to monitor all levels or focus only on the active level. Reduces the need for constant chart monitoring while ensuring you never miss significant level breaks.
Practical Trading Applications
Entry Timing: Use active level highlighting to identify the most probable support/resistance for entries. The real-time distance box helps gauge risk/reward before entering positions.
Risk Management: Set stops based on Gann level breaks, particularly doubly strong levels which tend to be more significant. The gradient visualization makes it easy to see how much room price has before hitting key levels.
Trend Confirmation: Fractal waves provide immediate context about whether current price action aligns with broader market structure. Bullish/bearish background fills offer quick visual confirmation of trend direction.
Multi-Asset Analysis: The auto-scaling multiplier system works across all markets and timeframes, making it valuable for traders who monitor multiple instruments with vastly different price ranges.
Confluence Trading: Combine Gann levels with fractal wave boundaries to identify high-probability setups where multiple technical factors align.
This tool is particularly valuable for traders who appreciate mathematical precision in their technical analysis while maintaining the flexibility to adapt to real-time market conditions.
Swing Point Volume Z-ScoreSWING POINT VOLUME Z-SCORE INDICATOR
A volume analysis tool that identifies statistical volume spikes at swing points with optional higher timeframe confirmation.
This indicator uses Leviathan's method of swing detection. All credit to him for his amazing work (and any mistakes mine). I was also inspired by Trading Riot, who's Capitulation indicator gave me the idea to create this one.
WHAT IT DOES
This indicator combines three analytical approaches:
- Volume Z-score calculation to measure volume significance statistically
- Automatic swing point detection (higher highs, lower lows, etc.)
- Optional higher timeframe volume confirmation
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations current volume is from the average, helping identify when volume activity is genuinely elevated rather than relying on visual assessment.
VISUAL SYSTEM
The indicator uses a color-coded approach for quick assessment:
GREEN - Normal Activity (Z-Score 1.0-2.0)
Above-average volume levels
ORANGE - Elevated Activity (Z-Score 2.0-3.0)
High volume activity that may indicate increased interest
RED - Potential Institutional Activity (Z-Score 3.0+)
Very high volume levels that could suggest significant market participation
HIGHER TIMEFRAME CONFIRMATION
When enabled, the indicator checks volume on a higher timeframe:
- Checkmark symbol indicates HTF volume also shows elevation
- X symbol indicates HTF volume doesn't confirm
- Auto-selects appropriate higher timeframe or allows manual selection
KEY FEATURES
Statistical Approach: Uses Z-score methodology rather than arbitrary volume thresholds
Adaptive Thresholds: Can adjust based on market volatility conditions
Swing Focus: Concentrates analysis on structurally important price levels
Volume Trends: Shows whether volume is accelerating or decelerating
Success Tracking: Monitors how often HTF confirmation proves effective
DISPLAY OPTIONS
Basic Mode: Essential features with clean interface
Advanced Mode: Additional customization and analytics
Label Sizing: Four size options to fit different screen setups
Table Position: Moveable info table with transparency control
Custom Colors: Adjustable for different chart themes
PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS
May help identify:
- Volume spikes at support/resistance levels
- Potential accumulation or distribution zones
- Breakout confirmation with volume backing
- Areas where larger market participants might be active
Works on all liquid markets and timeframes, though generally more effective on 15-minute charts and higher.
USAGE NOTES
This is an analytical tool that highlights statistically significant volume events. It should be used as part of a broader analysis approach rather than as a standalone trading system.
The indicator works best when combined with:
- Price action analysis
- Support and resistance identification
- Trend analysis
- Proper risk management
Default settings are designed to work well across most instruments, but users can adjust parameters based on their specific needs and trading style.
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Built with Pine Script v5
Compatible with all TradingView subscription levels
Open source code available for review and learning
Works on stocks, forex, crypto, futures, and other liquid instruments
The statistical approach helps remove some subjectivity from volume analysis, though like all technical indicators, it should be used thoughtfully as part of a complete trading plan.

Kimchi Premium Dashboard (Final)📜 Kimchi Premium Dashboard (Live & Daily Log)
🚀 Summary
This indicator is an all-in-one dashboard that tracks the real-time price difference of USDT (Tether) between a Korean exchange (Upbit) and a global exchange (Coinbase). This difference is commonly known as the "Kimchi Premium" (Kimp) or "Reverse Premium."
Going beyond a simple premium display, this tool is designed to assist with arbitrage and swing trading strategies by providing intuitive visualizations, a smart multi-tier alert system, and a daily data logging feature.
✨ Key Features
Real-time Premium Calculation: Accurately calculates the premium in percentage (%) based on the USDT prices from Upbit and Coinbase, and the live USD/KRW exchange rate.
Intuitive Zone Visualization: Instantly identify whether the premium is in a Buy, Sell, or Neutral zone through dynamic background coloring.
Smart Alert System: Delivers systematic alerts for key events like the initial -2.0% entry, a critical -2.5% breach, and subsequent new lows, all without unnecessary spam. (Can be toggled ON/OFF in settings).
Hybrid Dashboard: Features both a real-time status label and a daily log that records the day's significant low points.
📊 Visual Components Explained
Lines
🔵 Blue Line (Premium Line): This is the core real-time premium value (%). The position of this line is most important.
🟠 Orange Line (SMA Line): This is the moving average of the premium. It helps identify the overall trend beyond short-term volatility.
Zones
🟩 Green Zone (Buy Zone): This area, typically below -2.0%, indicates a "Reverse Premium" where the Korean price is significantly lower than the global price. It represents a potential buying opportunity for arbitrage.
🟥 Red Zone (Kimp Zone): This area, typically above 0%, indicates a "Kimchi Premium" where the Korean price is higher. This represents a potential selling or profit-taking opportunity.
Dashboard
Live Status Label: Located on the right, this label displays the precise premium value, the current zone status (Buy/Sell/Neutral), and the SMA value in real-time.
Today's Lows Log: Located on the left, this table records the time and level of significant lows (below -2.5%) broken during the day. It resets automatically at midnight (UTC).
🔔 Alerts & How to Use
This indicator provides a systematic 3-tier alert system designed for arbitrage strategies. (Must be enabled via "Enable Real-time Alerts?" in settings).
✅ Good Opportunity (-2.0%): A one-time alert triggers upon the first entry into the initial buying zone.
🚨 BIG Opportunity (-2.5%): A distinct, high-priority alert triggers when this more critical level is breached.
📞 Granular Tracking (Below -2.5%): Receive alerts for each new low in -0.1% increments for precise tracking during the best opportunities.
A recommended hybrid strategy is to keep alerts off for daily review using the "Today's Lows Log," and turn them on only during critical periods for real-time action.

cd_sweep&cisd_CxOverview:
When the price is at a significant zone/level on a higher time frame (HTF), and it sweeps (breaks through and then closes back below/above) the high or low of the previous HTF candle, it is common to look for a Change in State of Delivery (CISD) on a lower time frame (LTF) to enter a trade.
This model can be summarized as:
HTF Sweep → LTF CISD (Optional: SMT / Divergences)
________________________________________
Working Principle & Details:
1. The indicator monitors price action on the selected HTF and tracks any sweep (violation) of the previous HTF candle's high or low. Simultaneously, it identifies CISD levels on the LTF. If SMT is enabled, it will appear as a label on the chart.
When both HTF sweep and LTF CISD conditions are met, the indicator marks the chart at the open of the next candle and triggers an alert if set.
CISD levels are tracked and updated whenever a new HTF high/low is formed.
2. The indicator monitors the formation of entry models on up to six selected pairs, displaying results in two separate tables:
o HTF Sweep Query Table: Monitors live HTF candles and reports pairs that meet the sweep condition.
o CISD Table: Displays the pairs where a valid entry model has formed. A "🔥" symbol indicates the condition has occurred.
3. Bias Visualization:
Based on the selected HTF, a visual band is shown at the bottom of the chart using the chosen bullish/bearish colors.
Bias is determined by:
o Candle closing above/below the previous one suggesting continuation.
o A failed close after a sweep implying potential reversal.
4. HTF Candles:
Displays HTF candles based on the user-defined time frame.
5. Optional SMT (Smart Money Technique):
Must be enabled in the menu and requires the correlated pair to be entered correctly for accurate results.
Displayed only as a visual confirmation, not a requirement for model formation.
If the currently open symbol sweeps the previous candle while the correlated symbol does not (or vice versa), an "SMT" label appears on the chart.
6. Color & Table Positioning:
Controlled via the settings menu.
________________________________________
Warnings:
• The indicator only marks CISDs that form at HTF high/low zones.
• Entering every time the model forms does not guarantee profitability.
• Waiting for the model to appear at significant HTF levels/zones increases the likelihood of success.
• HTF and LTF selections should follow commonly accepted combinations or user-tested time frames.

Trend Breakout Description:
This Pine Script indicator identifies pivot high and pivot low points based on user-defined left and right candle legs, detecting breakouts to signal potential trend changes. It plots horizontal lines at pivot highs (lime) and pivot lows (red), marking breakout signals with labels ("Br") when the price crosses above a pivot high or below a pivot low. The indicator also changes the background color to reflect the trend (green for uptrend, red for downtrend) with adjustable transparency. The indicator primarily focuses on recognizing specific pivot patterns to define trends and generate trading signals.
How It Works
• Pivot Detection: Identifies pivot highs and lows using configurable left (Left side Pivot Candle) and right (Right side Pivot Candle) periods.
• Pivot Highs (PH): A pivot high is identified when a candle's high is greater than a specified number of preceding candles (left leg) and succeeding candles (right leg).
• Pivot Lows (PL): Similarly, a pivot low is identified when a candle's low is less than a specified number of preceding and succeeding candles.
The script then tracks the last three pivot highs and pivot lows.
Trend Detection and Breakouts
1. High Line (Resistance): When a middle pivot high (out of the three tracked) is higher than both the previous and the next pivot high, a lime green line is drawn from that pivot high. This line acts as a dynamic resistance level.
2. Low Line (Support): Conversely, when a middle pivot low is lower than both the previous and the next pivot low, a red line is drawn from that pivot low. This line acts as a dynamic support level.
________________________________________
Trading Signals : The indicator generates signals based on price crossing these dynamically drawn lines .
• Long Signal (Uptrend):
o A "Long" signal is triggered when the close price crosses above the current high line (resistance), and the indicator is not already in an uptrend.
o When a long signal occurs, the background turns green, and the high line becomes dotted and thinner. A "Br" (Breakout) label appears below the candle.
• Short Signal (Downtrend):
o A "Short" signal is triggered when the close price crosses below the current low line (support), and the indicator is not already in a downtrend.
o When a short signal occurs, the background turns red, and the low line becomes dotted and thinner. A "Br" (Breakout) label appears above the candle.
________________________________________
Customizable Settings
The indicator provides three user-adjustable inputs:
• Right Side Pivot Candle (fpivotLeg): This setting (default 10) determines the number of candles to the right that must have lower highs/higher lows for a pivot to be confirmed.
• Left Side Pivot Candle (bpivotLeg): This setting (default 15) determines the number of candles to the left that must have lower highs/higher lows for a pivot to be confirmed.
• Adjust Color Visualization (Colortrnp): This setting (default 85) controls the transparency of the background color changes, allowing you to adjust how prominently the green (uptrend) and red (downtrend) backgrounds are displayed.
________________________________________
How to Use It
This indicator can be used by traders to:
• Identify potential reversals: The formation of new pivot highs and lows can signal shifts in market direction.
• Spot breakout opportunities: Crossing above the high line or below the low line can indicate the start of a new trend or the continuation of an existing one.
• Confirm trend strength: The presence and extension of the high and low lines can provide visual cues about the prevailing trend.
• Ideal for swing traders or trend-following strategies.
• Use the breakout labels ("Br") and background color to confirm trend direction.
• Adjust pivot leg inputs to fine-tune sensitivity for different timeframes or assets.
• Customize transparency to suit chart readability.
Example:
On a breakout above a pivot high, a green "Br" label appears, the background turns green, and the pivot line becomes dotted. This signals a potential uptrend, helping traders identify entry points or trend confirmations.
Disclaimer: No indicator guarantees profits. Always use this indicator in conjunction with other analysis methods and proper risk management.
Angled Gann Time-Price Squares with S/RThis is a Pine Script indicator that implements Angled Gann Time-Price Squares based on W.D. Gann's trading theory. Here's what it does:
Core Functionality
Detects pivot highs and lows using a configurable lookback period
Creates angled squares by connecting pivot points to current price action when specific geometric conditions are met
Validates square formation by checking if the price movement follows proper Gann angles (typically 45°, 135°, etc.) within a tolerance range
Key Features
Real-time square tracking: Shows both completed squares and forming squares in progress
Support/Resistance levels: Automatically generates S/R lines from:
Square edge extensions
Diagonal extensions (pivot centers)
Quarter/half levels within squares (25%, 50%, 75%)
Visual feedback: Color-coded squares (green for up, red for down, orange for forming)
Projection lines: Predicts where squares might complete based on Gann angle theory
Gann Theory Application
The indicator follows Gann's principle that time and price move in geometric harmony. It looks for price movements that form perfect squares when plotted on a chart, where the diagonal of the square represents the natural flow of price and time at specific angles.
The generated support/resistance levels are particularly valuable because they're based on completed geometric patterns rather than just horizontal price levels, making them potentially more significant according to Gann methodology.
Morning Structure – Live 30 Min Range📝 Description:
This indicator captures the morning price structure by tracking the high and low during the first 30 minutes after market open (default: 9:30 AM to 10:00 AM, New York time).
🔧 How it works:
At market open, it begins tracking the highest high and lowest low
The high and low lines are dynamic and update in real-time during the first 30 minutes
Once the 30-minute range completes, the lines freeze at their final values
Lines extend horizontally across the rest of the session to mark the "Morning Range"
✅ Key Features:
Tracks live price action during the morning session
Freezes the structure after 30 minutes (or user-defined)
Automatically resets each new trading day
Built-in timezone setting (America/New_York) to align with standard U.S. market hours
Clean visual lines that scroll naturally with the chart
⚙️ Use Cases:
Identify morning breakout zones
Define support and resistance early in the session
Combine with breakout, fade, or range-trading strategies
⚠️ Note:
This version does not include alerts or labels, by design (clean and focused).
Those can be added easily for custom strategies.
Wavelet-Trend ML Integration [Alpha Extract]Alpha-Extract Volatility Quality Indicator
The Alpha-Extract Volatility Quality (AVQ) Indicator provides traders with deep insights into market volatility by measuring the directional strength of price movements. This sophisticated momentum-based tool helps identify overbought and oversold conditions, offering actionable buy and sell signals based on volatility trends and standard deviation bands.
🔶 CALCULATION
The indicator processes volatility quality data through a series of analytical steps:
Bar Range Calculation: Measures true range (TR) to capture price volatility.
Directional Weighting: Applies directional bias (positive for bullish candles, negative for bearish) to the true range.
VQI Computation: Uses an exponential moving average (EMA) of weighted volatility to derive the Volatility Quality Index (VQI).
Smoothing: Applies an additional EMA to smooth the VQI for clearer signals.
Normalization: Optionally normalizes VQI to a -100/+100 scale based on historical highs and lows.
Standard Deviation Bands: Calculates three upper and lower bands using standard deviation multipliers for volatility thresholds.
Signal Generation: Produces overbought/oversold signals when VQI reaches extreme levels (±200 in normalized mode).
Formula:
Bar Range = True Range (TR)
Weighted Volatility = Bar Range × (Close > Open ? 1 : Close < Open ? -1 : 0)
VQI Raw = EMA(Weighted Volatility, VQI Length)
VQI Smoothed = EMA(VQI Raw, Smoothing Length)
VQI Normalized = ((VQI Smoothed - Lowest VQI) / (Highest VQI - Lowest VQI) - 0.5) × 200
Upper Band N = VQI Smoothed + (StdDev(VQI Smoothed, VQI Length) × Multiplier N)
Lower Band N = VQI Smoothed - (StdDev(VQI Smoothed, VQI Length) × Multiplier N)
🔶 DETAILS
Visual Features:
VQI Plot: Displays VQI as a line or histogram (lime for positive, red for negative).
Standard Deviation Bands: Plots three upper and lower bands (teal for upper, grayscale for lower) to indicate volatility thresholds.
Reference Levels: Horizontal lines at 0 (neutral), +100, and -100 (in normalized mode) for context.
Zone Highlighting: Overbought (⋎ above bars) and oversold (⋏ below bars) signals for extreme VQI levels (±200 in normalized mode).
Candle Coloring: Optional candle overlay colored by VQI direction (lime for positive, red for negative).
Interpretation:
VQI ≥ 200 (Normalized): Overbought condition, strong sell signal.
VQI 100–200: High volatility, potential selling opportunity.
VQI 0–100: Neutral bullish momentum.
VQI 0 to -100: Neutral bearish momentum.
VQI -100 to -200: High volatility, strong bearish momentum.
VQI ≤ -200 (Normalized): Oversold condition, strong buy signal.
🔶 EXAMPLES
Overbought Signal Detection: When VQI exceeds 200 (normalized), the indicator flags potential market tops with a red ⋎ symbol.
Example: During strong uptrends, VQI reaching 200 has historically preceded corrections, allowing traders to secure profits.
Oversold Signal Detection: When VQI falls below -200 (normalized), a lime ⋏ symbol highlights potential buying opportunities.
Example: In bearish markets, VQI dropping below -200 has marked reversal points for profitable long entries.
Volatility Trend Tracking: The VQI plot and bands help traders visualize shifts in market momentum.
Example: A rising VQI crossing above zero with widening bands indicates strengthening bullish momentum, guiding traders to hold or enter long positions.
Dynamic Support/Resistance: Standard deviation bands act as dynamic volatility thresholds during price movements.
Example: Price reversals often occur near the third standard deviation bands, providing reliable entry/exit points during volatile periods.
🔶 SETTINGS
Customization Options:
VQI Length: Adjust the EMA period for VQI calculation (default: 14, range: 1–50).
Smoothing Length: Set the EMA period for smoothing (default: 5, range: 1–50).
