VWAP RangeThe VWAP Range indicator is a highly versatile and innovative tool designed with trading signals for trading the supply and demand within consolidation ranges.
What's a VWAP?
A VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) represents an equilibrium point in the market, balancing supply and demand over a specified period. Unlike simple moving averages, VWAP gives more weight to periods with higher volume. This is crucial because large volumes indicate significant trading activity, often by institutional traders, whose actions can reflect deeper market insights or create substantial market movements. The VWAP is also often used as a benchmark to evaluate the efficiency of executed trades. If a trader buys below the VWAP and sells above it, they are generally considered to have transacted favourably.
This is how it works:
Multiple VWAP Anchors:
This indicator uses multiple VWAPs anchored to different optional time periods, such as Daily, Weekly, Monthly, as well as to the highest high a lowest low within those periods. This multiplicity allows for a comprehensive view of the market’s average price based on volume and price, tailored to different trading styles and strategies.
Dynamic and Fixed Periods:
Traders can choose between using dynamic ranges, which reset at the start of each selected period, and specifying a date and time for a particular fixed range to trade. This flexibility is crucial for analyzing price movements within specific ranges or market phases.
Fixed ranges allow VWAPs to be calculated and anchored to a significant market event, the beginning of a consolidation phase or after a major news announcement.
Signal Generation:
The indicator generates buy and sell signals based on the relationship of the price to the VWAPs. It also allows for setting a maximum number of signals in one direction to avoid overtrading or pyramiding. Be sure to wait for the candle close before trading on the signals.
Average Buy/Sell Signal Lines:
Lines can be plotted to display the average buy and sell signal prices. The difference between the lines shows the average profit per trade when trading on the signals in that range. It's a good way to see how profitable a range is on average without backtesting the signals. The lines will also often turn into support and resistance areas, similar to value areas in a volume profile.
Customizable Settings:
Traders have control over various settings, such as the VWAP calculation method and bar color. There are also tooltips for every function.
Hidden Feature:
There's a subtle feature in this indicator: if you have 'Indicator values' turned on in TradingView, you'll see a Sell/Buy Ratio displayed only in the status line. This ratio indicates whether there are more sell signals than buy signals in a range, regardless of the Max Signals setting. A red value above 1 suggests that the market is trending upward, indicating you might want to hold your long positions a bit longer. Conversely, a green value below 1 implies a downward trend.

VWAP Boulevard [vnhilton](OVERVIEW)
The idea of this indicator comes from traders identifying supply to mainly look for shorts. Scenarios would be gap ups or pump & dumps where huge volume is transacted, & bag-holders are present. Some traders would draw resistance lines, I myself used to draw supply zones using the volume profile on that day, & others used the day VWAP on those days. VWAP Boulevard (I believe the name comes from the trader named team3dstocks) draws day VWAP lines from the highest volume days for a given period (excluding the current day).
(FEATURES)
- Draws horizontal & vertical lines from up to 250 highest volume days out of up to 3568 days, with the ability to hide either of these lines, their thicknesses, styles
- Extend/cut horizontal lines, or extend them all the way to the right
- Show the day VWAP, volume & age for these days in labels, with the ability to show what information you want to see only
- Separate customizable color forms for the lines & labels - ordinary (1 color); volume (2 color gradient from lowest to highest volume of the highest volume days); age (2 color gradient from youngest to oldest volume of the highest volume days)
- Edit offset & size of labels, & hide them
- Hide vertical lines
From left to right: Age color; ordinary color; volume color
250 highest volume days in the past year. Very messy so it's very likely you won't be using this but the ability to draw lines from 250 highest volume days is there if needed
(DRAWDOWNS)
- This indicator will only on the daily timeframe (error message will show up if unaware of this, & can be toggled off). Unfortunately, this would mean you would have to draw the lines manually yourself if you wish to use them on intraday timeframes.
- You may also encounter the 'Pine cannot determine the referencing length of a series. Try using max_bars_back' error. This occurs when the lookback period is very high & the indicator attempts to recalculate I believe. If this happens then reload the indicator.
The logic I used to obtain the highest volume days were to put all of the volume days in a given period in 1 array, then to sort them from highest to lowest, & also store their sorted indices in an separate array as well, so that drawings for each volume day could be done from the 2 arrays.
//Volume for last N periods
var int pastVol = array.new_int(lookbackPeriodFixed)
for i = 0 to lookbackPeriodFixed - 1
array.set(pastVol, i, int(volume ))
sortedIndices = array.sort_indices(pastVol, order.descending) //All Indices of sorted volume from highest to lowest
sortedIndices2 = array.slice(sortedIndices, 0, highestVolDays) //Indices of sorted volume from highest to lowest
array.sort(pastVol, order.descending) //All Volume sorted from highest to lowest
pastVol2 = array.slice(pastVol, 0, highestVolDays) //Volume sorted from highest to lowest
//Drawings
for i = 0 to highestVolDays - 1
index := array.get(sortedIndices, i)
vol := array.get(pastVol, i)
Since these array sizes were determined from the lookback period, it would mean that the request.security() function used to obtain daily values on intraday timeframes wouldn't work for a lookback period >20 (20 * 2 values I believe, which are the day VWAP & the day volume) as TradingView has put a maximum amount of calls of 40 in 1 script. Therefore, for intraday plots to work I would have to change the logic for getting the day VWAP & day volume for the highest days, as the request.security() function doesn't work on for loops, & this would also mean that the user would only be able to draw lines from up to 20 highest volume days instead of 250. I couldn't go forward with this as I wasn't able to find the logic to pick the highest volume days & their day VWAPs & times (indexes) without using a for loop. If anyone has any solutions (including for the 'Pine cannot determine the referencing length of a series. Try using max_bars_back' error) then please let me know. I've also left commented-out code for dealing with intraday drawings for future use.
RSI ProfileThis indicator shows the RSI profile from historical RSI Value and High / Low RSI Pivots.
It is inspired by the Volume Profile which is a common charting study that indicates activity at specified levels. It plots a histogram on the chart meant to identify dominant/significant levels.
This script is profiling RSI levels into a histogram, which can identify the crucial RSI values in the chart. Along with the pivot options that can help identify the dominant pivot points where RSI values had been rebounding historically.
How to use:
There are three profile types available in the settings. When selecting RSI Values, the indicator will count RSI values from history, and plot the count in a histogram at the end of the chart. If you select RSI Pivots High or RSI Pivots Low, the indicator will count only the RSI Pivot Highs and Lows and plot the count in a histogram. Users can select the Pivot Left/Right length from the settings.
Users can extend the POC line to the left, to study how the values had been reacting to POC
Please note: Since the RSi values range from 0 to 100, the indicator is rounding off the values to absolute numbers. This can cause a situation where multiple POC are identified, to find the unique POC, you can increase the width of the histogram.
The Max/Min RSI settings are for visual purposes only, it can help users shrink down the histogram's top and bottom visibility
Volume Spikes & Growing Volume Signals With Alerts & ScannerVOLUME SPIKES & GROWING VOLUME SIGNALS WITH ALERTS & SCANNER
This indicator shows arrows when there is a volume spike. It also paints the background when volume is growing. There is also a volume scanner for 8 tickers that will change color in real time when your other favorite tickers see volume growth and spikes.
You can customize the length of DMI, the number of bars to calculate the current volume average from, the number of bars back to get the overall volume average from, the multiple that needs to be hit to give a signal, the position of the scanner table and which tickers are used in the scanner. There are detailed directions as tooltips in the indicator settings you can read to understand exactly what each input does.
All features are customizable as well as which tickers the screener uses.
***HOW TO USE***
Watch for volume to pick up before placing trades as this will help you stay out of the markets when price is choppy. Volume usually brings volatility so watch for the volume signals to show up on the chart. Typically when price has made a big move one direction or is consolidating and you see the volume indicator start giving signals, the market is ready to reverse or continue its current trend but move faster in that direction.
Volume Spikes
When there is a volume spike that is larger than the average of volume over the last 100+ bars(depending on your settings) multiplied by the volume amount multiplier(in your settings) then an arrow will show up on the chart. This arrow will be green if DMI is bullish and red if DMI is bearish.
Volume Growth
A Background color will appear when the average volume over the last 5 bars(depending on your settings) is higher than the average volume over the last 100+ bars(depending on your settings) and is greater than your multiple. It will also paint the background when the volume moving average has increased over the last 3 bars consecutively. The background colors will be red or green depending on buy & sell pressure(DMI). If the background color appears, then you know volume is growing and volatility is near.
Volume Scanner
The scanner can be customized to have all of your favorite tickers by changing the tickers used in the indicator settings at the bottom. When no volume growth or spikes are detected, the ticker will show as light blue. When volume spikes or growth is detected, the ticker will turn orange to notify you.
Alerts
You can set up alerts as well when there is volume growth, bullish volume spikes and bearish volume spikes on any chart or timeframe.
Indicator Settings
Settings will need to be adjusted across different tickers as some have large swings in volume and some stay pretty even, so make sure to set up different chart layouts with settings that work for each ticker and save them individually so you don’t have to reset these values every time you switch charts.
***MARKETS***
This indicator can be used as a signal on all markets, including stocks, crypto, futures and forex as long as Tradingview has volume and DMI data for that ticker.
***TIMEFRAMES***
This volume spike indicator can be used on all timeframes as long as there is enough data for Tradingview to use for calculations.
***TIPS***
Try using numerous indicators of ours on your chart so you can instantly see the bullish or bearish trend of multiple indicators in real time without having to analyze the data. Some of our favorites are our Auto Fibonacci, Volume Profile, Momentum, Auto Support And Resistance and Money Flow Index in combination with this Volume Growth indicator. They all have real time Bullish and Bearish labels as well so you can immediately understand each indicator's trend.
Market Profile with TPOThis is is Market Profile with TPO (the letters) on the current session. Due to pinescript limitations, we are limited to 500 TPOs, since this script uses 1 label per TPO. It is NOT volume profile, this is Time Profile (Time spent at a price).
Cumulative Overlapping Volume BarsThis is cheap replacement for volume profile.
Red bars is where accumulated high volume in small range.
if new bar moves out of range all accumulated volume will be lost and color will change.
Delta Volume Columns [LucF]Displays delta volume columns using intrabar volume information. Each volume column is divided into three sections: buying, selling and neutral volume. Volume for each section is determined from the volume and price movement of each intrabar at a user-selected lower resolution.
Features include:
- Choice of color themes for either dark or light chart backgrounds
- Delta volume columns
- Volume Balance displayed as the difference between the MAs of buying and selling volume
- Display of divergences between a bar’s volume balance and the bar’s price movement (example: buying volume > selling volume but close < open). Divergences can be shown in 2 different color schemes (including green/red showing a tentative direction), on volume columns and/or on chart bars
- Display of bar by bar volume balance with highlighting of above average volume
- Display of the usual total volume MA
- Choice of the lower resolution used to retrieve intrabar information
- Alerts configurable on any combination of the markers, with control over long/short direction
- Choice of 3 different markers:
1. Double bumps: two consecutive bars where buying or selling volume is in the same direction and where volume > volume MA
2. Divergence confirmations: direction of the price bar following a price/volume balance divergence
3. Volume balance shifts: zero level crossings of the volume balance MA delta
The chart shows the two main modes of display:
- Top pane : shows the stacked volume columns with divergences in orange and the flattened volume balance MAs delta at the bottom of the volume columns. This volume balance is the same shown in the bottom pane. The top pane also shows the instant volume balance strip above the volume columns. The strip’s colors show which of the buying or selling volume was greater, and colors are brighter if the total volume was above the total volume MA.
- Bottom pane : shows the volume balance MAs delta with markers 1 and 2. Given that this graphic has no price momentum component, I find quite eerie how it often looks like a momentum-based signal.
The default 5 minute intrabar resolution is used in combination with the weekly chart, which is excessive.
This script uses a special characteristic of the security() function’s behavior when it is sent to a resolution lower than the chart’s resolution. Details are given in the script’s comments. This method has the advantage of working under more circumstances than some of the other loop-based methods, but it also has its limits.
IMPORTANT
This is what you need to know:
- The method used does not work on the realtime bar—only on historical bars. Consequently, the volume column shown on the realtime bar is a normal volume column plotted in green or red, following price movement. The column will only show delta volume information after it closes and becomes a historical bar.
- The indicator only works on some chart resolutions: 5, 10, 15 and 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, 6, and 12 hours, 1 day, 1 week and 1 month. The script’s code can be modified to run on other resolutions, but chart resolutions must be divisible by the lower resolution used for intrabars.
- Intrabar resolutions can be selected from 1, 5, 15, 30, 45 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4 hours, 1 day, 1 week and 1 month. The intrabar resolution must of course be smaller than the chart’s resolution.
- Contrary to my other indicators where alerts must be configured to trigger “Once Per Bar Close” in order to avoid false triggers (or repainting), all this indicator’s alerts are designed to trigger using previous bar information since the indicator’s calculations in the realtime bar are not exact. Markers are not plotted with a negative offset; they appear at the beginning of the realtime bar following confirmation of the marker’s condition on the previous bar. Alerts for this indicator should thus be configured to trigger “Once Per Bar” so they trigger at the beginning of the realtime bar. Note that the penalty is not that great, as it is simply the instant between the close of the previous realtime bar and the opening of the next. The advantage of using this technique is that the indicator does not repaint; a marker that appears at the beginning of the realtime bar will never disappear.
- The script only plots information that is reliable in the realtime bar, i.e., total volume and markers. All other plots are set to n/a to prevent misleading traders.
- When the difference between the chart’s resolution and the lower resolution is too important, volume columns will not calculate for all bars in the dataset.
On Delta Volume
Buying or selling volume are misnomers, as every unit of volume transacted is both bought and sold by 2 different traders. There is no such thing as “buy only” or “sell only” volume, but trader lingo is riddled with original fabulations.
Without access to order book information, traders work with the assumption that when price moves up during a bar, there was more buying pressure than selling pressure. The built-in volume indicator available on TradingView uses this logic to color the volume columns green or red. While this script’s numbers are more precise because it analyses a number of intrabars to calculate its information, it uses the exact same imperfect logic to calculate its buying/selling/neutral sections.
Until Pine scripts can have access to how much volume was transacted at the bid/ask prices, our so-called buying/selling volume information will always be a mere proxy.
Divergences
You may wonder how there can be divergences between buying/selling volume information and price movement. This will sometimes be due to the methodology’s shortcomings we have just discussed, but divergences may also occur in instances where because of order book structure, it takes less volume to increase the price of an asset than it takes to decrease it.
As usual, divergences are points of interest because they reveal imbalances, which may or may not become turning points. I do not share the overwhelming enthusiasm traders have for divergences. To your pattern-hungry brain, the orange bars this indicator shows on chart will—as divergences on other indicators do–appear to often indicate turnarounds. My opinion is that reality is generally quite sobering, as many who have tried building automated rules based on divergences will tell you. I do not have hard numbers on the lack of performance of divergences—only many failed attempts to make them perform, which a few experienced strategy modelers I know share with me. Please don’t try to read too much into them. While they look great on past data, I find they are often difficult to use in realtime to make bets with good odds.

Quantura - Supply & Demand Zone DetectionIntroduction
“Quantura – Supply & Demand Zone Detection” is an advanced indicator designed to automatically detect and visualize institutional supply and demand zones, as well as breaker blocks, directly on the chart. The tool helps traders identify key areas of market imbalance and potential reversal or continuation zones, based on price structure, volume, and ATR dynamics.
Originality & Value
This indicator provides a unique and adaptive method of zone detection that goes beyond simple pivot or candle-based logic. It merges multiple layers of confirmation—volume sensitivity, ATR filters, and swing structure—while dynamically tracking how zones evolve as the market progresses. Unlike traditional supply and demand indicators, this script also detects and plots Breaker Zones when previous imbalances are violated, giving traders an extra layer of market context.
The key values of this tool include:
Automated detection of high-probability supply and demand zones.
Integration of both volume and ATR filters for precision and adaptability.
Dynamic zone merging and updating based on price evolution.
Identification of breaker blocks (invalidated zones) to visualize market structure shifts.
Optional bullish and bearish trade signals when zones are retested.
Clear, visually optimized plotting for efficient chart interpretation.
Functionality & Core Logic
The indicator continuously scans recent price data for swing highs/lows and combines them with optional volume and ATR conditions to validate potential zones.
Demand Zones are formed when price action indicates accumulation or a strong bullish rejection from a low area.
Supply Zones are created when distribution or strong bearish rejection occurs near local highs.
Breaker Blocks appear when existing zones are invalidated by price, helping traders visualize potential market structure shifts.
Bullish and bearish signals appear when price re-enters an active zone or breaks through a breaker block.
Parameters & Customization
Demand Zones / Supply Zones: Enable or disable each individually.
Breaker Zones: Activate breaker block detection for invalidated zones.
Volume Filter: Optional filter to only confirm zones when volume exceeds its long-term average by a user-defined multiplier.
ATR Filter: Optional filter for volatility confirmation, ensuring zones form under strong momentum conditions.
Swing Length: Controls the number of bars used to detect structural pivots.
Sensitivity Controls: Adjustable ATR and volume multipliers to fine-tune detection responsiveness.
Signals: Toggle for on-chart bullish (▲) and bearish (▼) signal plotting when price interacts with zones.
Color Customization: User-defined bullish and bearish colors for both standard and breaker zones.
Core Calculations
Zones are detected using pivot highs and lows with a defined lookback and lookahead period.
Additional filters apply if ATR and volume are enabled, requiring conditions like “ATR > average * multiplier” and “Volume > average * multiplier.”
Detected zones are merged if overlapping, keeping the chart clean and logical.
When price breaks through a zone, the original box is closed, and a new breaker zone is plotted automatically.
Bullish and bearish markers appear when zones are retested from the opposite side.
Visualization & Display
Demand zones are shaded in semi-transparent bullish color (default: blue).
Supply zones are shaded in semi-transparent bearish color (default: red).
Breaker zones appear when previous imbalances are broken, helping to spot structural shifts.
Optional arrows (▲ / ▼) indicate potential buy or sell reactions on zone interaction.
Use Cases
Identify institutional areas of accumulation (demand) or distribution (supply).
Detect potential breakout traps and market structure shifts using breaker zones.
Combine with other tools such as volume profile, EMA, or liquidity indicators for deeper confirmation.
Observe retests and reactions of zones to anticipate possible reversals or continuations.
Apply multi-timeframe analysis to align higher timeframe zones with lower timeframe entries.
Limitations & Recommendations
The indicator does not predict future price movement; it highlights structural imbalances only.
Performance depends on chosen swing length and sensitivity—users should optimize parameters for each market.
Works best in volatile markets where supply and demand imbalances are clearly expressed.
Should be used as part of a broader trading framework, not as a standalone signal generator.
Markets & Timeframes
The “Quantura – Supply & Demand Zone Detection” indicator is suitable for all asset classes including cryptocurrencies, Forex, indices, commodities, and equities. It performs reliably across multiple timeframes, from intraday scalping to higher timeframe swing analysis.

Quantura - Average Intraday Candle VolumeIntroduction
“Quantura – Average Intraday Candle Volume” is a quantitative visualization tool that calculates and displays the average traded volume for each intraday time position based on a user-defined historical lookback period. It allows traders to analyze recurring intraday volume patterns, identify high-activity sessions, and detect liquidity shifts throughout the trading day.
Originality & Value
This indicator goes beyond standard volume averages by normalizing and aligning volume data according to the time of day. Instead of simply smoothing recent bars, it builds an intraday volume profile based on historical daily averages, enabling users to understand when during the day volume typically peaks or drops.
Its originality and usefulness come from:
Converting standard volume data into time-aligned intraday averages.
Visualization of historical intraday liquidity behavior, not just total daily volume.
Dynamic scaling using normalization and transparency to emphasize active and quiet periods.
Optional day-separator lines for precise intraday structure recognition.
Gradient-based coloring for better visual interpretation of volume intensity.
Functionality & Core Logic
The indicator divides each day into discrete intraday time positions (based on chart timeframe).
For each position, it stores and updates historical volume values across the selected number of days.
It calculates an average volume per time position by aggregating all stored values and dividing them by the number of valid days.
The result is plotted as a continuous histogram showing typical intraday volume distribution.
The bar colors and transparency dynamically reflect the relative intensity of volume at each point in the day.
Parameters & Customization
Number of Days for Averaging: Defines how many past days are included in the volume average calculation (default: 365).
UTC Offset: Allows synchronization of intraday cycles with local or exchange time zones.
Base Color: Sets the main color for plotted volume columns.
Color Mode: Choose between “Gradient” (transparency dynamically adjusts by intensity) or “Normal” (fixed opacity).
Day Line: Toggles dashed vertical lines marking the start of each trading day.
Visualization & Display
Volume is plotted as a series of histogram bars, each representing the average volume for a specific intraday time position.
A gradient color mode enhances readability by fading lower-intensity areas and highlighting high-volume regions.
Optional day-separator lines visually segment historical sessions for easy reference.
Works seamlessly across all chart timeframes that divide the 24-hour day into regular bar intervals.
Use Cases
Identify when trading activity typically peaks (e.g., session opens, news windows, or overlapping markets).
Compare current intraday volume to historical averages for early anomaly detection.
Enhance algorithmic or discretionary strategies that depend on volume-timing alignment.
Combine with volatility or price structure indicators to confirm market activity zones.
Evaluate session consistency across different time zones using the UTC offset parameter.
Limitations & Recommendations
The indicator requires intraday data (below 1D resolution) to function properly.
Volume behavior may vary across brokers and assets; adjust averaging period accordingly.
Does not predict price movement — it provides volume-based context for analysis.
Works best when combined with structure or momentum-based indicators.
Markets & Timeframes
Compatible with all intraday markets — including crypto, Forex, equities, and futures — and all intraday timeframes (from 1 minute to 4 hours). It is particularly valuable for analyzing assets with continuous 24-hour trading activity.

Short-Timeframe Volume Spike DetectorShort-Timeframe Volume Spike Detector
Description:
The Short-Timeframe Volume Spike Detector is an advanced multi-timeframe (MTF) indicator that automatically detects sudden volume surges and price expansion events on a lower timeframe and displays them on a higher (base) timeframe chart — helping traders identify hidden intraday accumulation or breakout pressure within broader candles.
⚙️ How It Works
Select a Base Timeframe (e.g., Daily, 4H, 1H).
The script automatically fetches data from a Lower Timeframe (e.g., Daily → 1H, 1H → 15m).
Within each base bar, it scans all the lower timeframe candles to find:
Volume Spikes: Volume exceeds average × multiplier or a custom threshold.
Price Strength: Candle shows upward movement beyond a minimum % change.
When both conditions are met, a spike signal is plotted on the higher timeframe chart.
🔍 Features
✅ Automatic Lower Timeframe Mapping — Dynamically selects the most relevant lower timeframe.
✅ Two Detection Modes:
Multiplier Mode: Volume spikes defined as multiple of average lower timeframe volume.
Manual Mode: Custom absolute volume threshold.
✅ Trend Filter Option: Show only signals during uptrends (configurable).
✅ Visual Markers:
Purple “X” = Volume Spike Detected
Dotted red & green lines = Candle range extension
✅ Custom Label Placement: Above High / Below Low / At Spike Price
✅ Debug Mode: Displays full diagnostic info including detected volume, threshold, and % change.
📊 Use Cases
Detect early accumulation in daily candles using hourly or 15-min data.
Identify institutional buying interest before visible breakouts.
Confirm strong continuation patterns after price compression.
Spot hidden intraday activity on swing or positional charts.
🧩 Inputs Overview
Input Description

3D Candles (Zeiierman)█ Overview
3D Candles (Zeiierman) is a unique 3D take on classic candlesticks, offering a fresh, high-clarity way to visualize price action directly on your chart. Visualizing price in alternative ways can help traders interpret the same data differently and potentially gain a new perspective.
█ How It Works
⚪ 3D Body Construction
For each bar, the script computes the candle body (open/close bounds), then projects a top face offset by a depth amount. The depth is proportional to that candle’s high–low range, so it looks consistent across symbols with different prices/precisions.
rng = math.max(1e-10, high - low ) // candle range
depthMag = rng * depthPct * factorMag // % of range, shaped by tilt amount
depth = depthMag * factorSign // direction from dev (up/down)
depthPct → how “thick” the 3D effect is, as a % of each candle’s own range.
factorMag → scales the effect based on your tilt input (dev), with a smooth curve so small tilts still show.
factorSign → applies the direction of the tilt (up or down).
⚪ Tilt & Perspective
Tilt is controlled by dev and translated into a gentle perspective factor:
slope = (4.0 * math.abs(dev)) / width
factorMag = math.pow(math.min(1.0, slope), 0.5) // sqrt softens response
factorSign = dev == 0 ? 0.0 : math.sign(dev) // direction (up/down)
Larger dev → stronger 3D presence (up to a cap).
The square-root curve makes small dev values noticeable without overdoing it.
█ How to Use
Traders can use 3D Candles just like regular candlesticks. The difference is the 3D visualization, which can broaden your view and help you notice price behavior from a fresh perspective.
⚪ Quick setup (dual-view):
Split your TradingView layout into two synchronized charts.
Right pane: keep your standard candlestick or bar chart for live execution.
Left pane: add 3D Candles (Zeiierman) to compare the same symbol/timeframe.
Observe differences: the 3D rendering can make expansion/contraction and body emphasis easier to spot at a glance.
█ Go Full 3D
Take the experience further by pairing 3D Candles (Zeiierman) with Volume Profile 3D (Zeiierman) , a perfect complement that shows where activity is concentrated, while your 3D candles show how the price unfolded.
█ Settings
Candles — How many 3D candles to draw. Higher values draw more shapes and may impact performance on slower machines.
Block Width (bars) — Visual thickness of each 3D candle along the x-axis. Larger values look chunkier but can overlap more.
Up/Down — Controls the tilt and strength of the 3D top face.
3D depth (% of range) — Thickness of the 3D effect as a percentage of each candle’s own high–low range. Larger values exaggerate the depth.

Wyckoff Effort vs. Result📌 Wyckoff Effort vs. Result (E/R) – Visualizing Supply & Demand Imbalance with Volume Confirmation
📖 Overview
The Wyckoff Effort vs. Result (E/R) indicator is designed to help traders interpret market behavior through the lens of volume vs. price movement — a foundational concept in Richard Wyckoff’s methodology.
This tool aims to highlight moments where the “effort” (volume) is not in proportion to the “result” (price movement) — giving insight into potential accumulation or distribution events.
By detecting high-volume candles and classifying them based on their price direction, the indicator visualizes zones where smart money might be active .
⚙️ How It Works
1. Effort Accumulation (High Volume Down Bar):
• When a candle closes lower than it opens (down bar) and has above-average volume , it’s marked as potential absorption of selling pressure (effort to push down met by buying).
• These candles are colored red and the open level is plotted, acting as a potential support or re-test zone.
2. Effort Distribution (High Volume Up Bar):
• When a candle closes higher than it opens (up bar) and has above-average volume , it’s marked as potential distribution (effort to push up absorbed by sellers).
• These candles are colored green and the open level is plotted , acting as a potential resistance or rejection zone.
3. Average Volume Calculation:
• The script calculates a simple moving average (SMA) of volume over a user-defined lookback period.
• If current volume exceeds the average multiplied by a set threshold, it’s treated as a high-effort bar .
🧪 Inputs
Input Description
Average Volume Lookback - Number of bars used to calculate the volume average
High Volume Multiplier. - Multiplier to define what qualifies as “high volume”
🖥️ Visual Output
• 🔴 Red candles = High volume on a down bar → possible accumulation
• 🟢 Green candles = High volume on an up bar → possible distribution
• 📉 Horizontal lines at bar open price mark the potential zones where effort occurred
These zones can serve as:
• Areas of support/resistance
• Trap zones where smart money absorbs liquidity
• Entry/exit filters when combined with price action
🧠 How to Use
• Use in combination with price structure, support/resistance, and volume profile tools

Fixed Range Volume Profile"Distribution of transaction volume by price group (transaction volume by price block)"
Instructions for use (Professional Manual)
1. a basic concept
By vertical axis (price), shows the cumulative trading volume traded in the segment.
The longer the block, the more transactions took place in that price range.
Colors distinguish between buying/selling strength (green = buying advantage, red = selling advantage).
2. Key components
POC (Point of Control)
→ Longest block (most traded price segment, "key selling point").
VAH / VAL (Value Area High/Low)
→ Top/bottom segments where approximately 70% of the total volume is formed.
→ Role of "Major Support/Resistance".
High Capacity Node (HVN)
→ Significantly higher trading volumes → strong support/resistance.
Low Volume Node (LVN)
→ Low volume section → areas where prices are easily passed.
3. practical application
Find Support/Resistance
The thickest block (POC) is used as a place where prices often rebound/resist.
a trading entry/liquidation strategy
Buy if the price is supported near HVN,
When breaking through the LVN, fast movement (gap movement) can be expected.
break/goal setting
Finger = Under the LVN,
Target = Next HVN.
Judgment of trends
When the block distribution is concentrated above, "Increase to Collection Section"
If you're driven below, you're "in a downtrend to a variance section."
4. Precautions
The volume distribution is "past data based" and is not an indicator of the future.
Rather than using it alone, it is more effective to combine with Fibonacci, trend lines, and candle patterns.
In particular, in the volatile market, the LVN breakthrough → may signal a surge/fall.
In summary, this block indicator is "a map showing the most market participants at any price point".
In other words, it is useful for finding support/resistance as a tool for analyzing sales and establishing the basis for trading strategies.

Wick Pressure Zones [BigBeluga]
The Wick Pressure Zones indicator highlights areas where extreme wick activity occurred, signaling strong buy or sell pressure. By measuring unusually long upper or lower wicks and mapping them into gradient volume zones , the tool helps traders identify levels where liquidity was absorbed, leaving behind footprints of supply and demand imbalances. These zones often act as support, resistance, or liquidity sweep magnets .
🔵 CONCEPTS
Extreme Wicks : Large upper or lower shadows indicate aggressive rejection — upper wicks suggest selling pressure, lower wicks suggest buying pressure.
Volumatic Gradient Zones : From each detected wick, the indicator projects a layered gradient zone, proportional to the wick’s size, showing where most pressure occurred.
Liquidity Footprints : These zones mark levels where significant buy/sell volume was executed, often becoming reaction points on future retests.
Automatic Expiration : Zones persist until price decisively trades through them, after which they are cleared to keep the chart clean.
🔵 FEATURES
Automatic Wick Detection : Identifies extreme upper and lower wick events using percentile filtering and Realative Strength Index.
Gradient Zone Visualization : Builds a 10-layer zone from the wick top/bottom, shading intensity according to pressure strength.
Volume Labels : Each zone is annotated with the bar’s volume at the origin point for added context.
Dynamic Zone Extension : Zones extend to the right as long as they remain relevant; once price closes through them, they are removed.
Support & Resistance Mapping : Upper wick zones (red) behave like supply/resistance, lower wick zones (green) like demand/support.
Clutter Control : Limits the number of active zones (default 10) to keep charts responsive.
Background Highlighting : Optional background shading when new wick zones appear (red for sell, green for buy).
🔵 HOW TO USE
Look for Upper Wick Zones (red) : Indicate strong selling pressure; watch for resistance, reversals, or liquidity sweeps above.
Look for Lower Wick Zones (green) : Indicate strong buying pressure; watch for support or liquidity sweeps below.
Trade Retests : When price returns to a zone, expect a reaction (bounce or rejection) due to leftover liquidity.
Combine with Context : Align wick pressure zones with HTF support/resistance, order blocks, or volume profile for stronger signals.
Use Volume Labels : High-volume wicks indicate more significant liquidity events, making the zone more likely to act as a strong reaction point.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Wick Pressure Zones is a powerful way to visualize hidden liquidity and aggressive rejections. By mapping extreme wick events into dynamic, volume-annotated zones, it shows traders where the market absorbed heavy buy/sell pressure. These levels frequently act as magnets or turning points, making them valuable for timing entries, stop placement, or fade strategies.
StdDev Supply/Demand Zone RefinerThis indicator uses standard deviation bands to identify statistically significant price extremes, then validates these levels through volume analysis and market structure. It employs a proprietary "Zone Refinement" technique that dynamically adjusts zones based on price interaction and volume concentration, creating increasingly precise support/resistance areas.
Key Features:
Statistical Extremes Detection: Identifies when price reaches 2+ standard deviations from mean
Volume-Weighted Zone Creation: Only creates zones at extremes with abnormal volume
Dynamic Zone Refinement: Automatically tightens zones based on touch points and volume nodes
Point of Control (POC) Identification: Finds the exact price with maximum volume within each zone
Volume Profile Visualization: Shows horizontal volume distribution to identify key liquidity levels
Multi-Factor Validation: Combines volume imbalance, zone strength, and touch count metrics
Unlike traditional support/resistance indicators that use arbitrary levels, this system:
Self-adjusts based on market volatility (standard deviation)
Refines zones through machine-learning-like feedback from price touches
Weights by volume to show where real money was positioned
Tracks zone decay - older, untested zones automatically fade
DeltaTrace ForecastDeltaTrace Forecast is a forward-looking projection tool that visualizes the probable directional path of price using a multi-timeframe momentum model rooted in volatility-adjusted nonlinear dynamics. Rather than relying on traditional indicators that react to price after the fact, DeltaTrace estimates future price motion by tracing the progression of momentum changes across expanding timeframes—then scaling those deltas using adaptive volatility to forecast a plausible path forward.
At its core, DeltaTrace constructs a momentum vector from a series of smoothed z-scores derived from increasing multiples of the current chart's timeframe. These z-scores are normalized using a hyperbolic tangent function (tanh), which compresses extreme values and emphasizes meaningful deviations without being overly sensitive to outliers. This nonlinear normalization ensures that explosive moves are weighted with less distortion, while still preserving the shape and direction of the underlying trend.
Once the z-scores are calculated for a range of 12 timeframes (from 1× the current timeframe up to 12×), the indicator computes the first difference between each adjacent pair. These differences—or deltas—represent the change in momentum from one timeframe to the next. In this structure, a strong positive delta implies momentum is strengthening as we look into higher timeframes, while a negative delta reflects waning or reversing strength.
However, not all deltas are treated equally. To make the projection adaptive to market volatility and temporally meaningful, each delta is scaled by the square root of its corresponding timeframe multiple, weighted by the ATR (Average True Range) of the base timeframe. This square-root volatility scaling mirrors the behavior of Brownian motion and reflects the natural geometric diffusion of price over time. By applying this scaling, the model tempers its forecast according to recent volatility while maintaining proportional distance over longer time horizons.
The result is a chain of projected price steps—11 in total—starting from the current closing price. These steps are cumulative, meaning each one builds upon the previous, forming a continuously adjusted polyline that represents the most recent forecast path of price. Each point in the forecast line is directional: if the next projected point is above the last, the segment is colored green (upward momentum); if below, it is colored red (downward momentum). This color coding gives immediate visual feedback on the nature of the projected path and allows for intuitive at-a-glance interpretation.
What makes DeltaTrace unique is its combination of ideas from signal processing, time-series momentum analysis, and volatility theory. Instead of relying on static support/resistance levels or lagging moving averages, it dynamically adapts to both momentum curvature and volatility structure. This allows it to be used not just for trend confirmation, but also for top-down bias fading, reversal anticipation, and path-following strategies.
Traders can use DeltaTrace in a variety of ways depending on their style:
For trend traders, a consistent upward or downward curve in the forecast suggests directional continuation and can be used for position sizing or confirmation of bias.
For mean-reversion traders, exaggerated divergence between the current price and the first few forecast points may indicate temporary exhaustion or overextension.
For scalpers or intraday traders, the short-term bend or flattening of the initial segments can reveal early signs of weakening momentum or build-up before breakout.
For swing traders, the full shape of the polyline gives an evolving map of market rhythm across time compression, allowing for context-aware decision-making.
It’s important to understand that this is a path projection tool, not a precise price target predictor. The forecast does not attempt to predict exact price levels at exact bars, but rather illustrates how the market might evolve if the current multi-timeframe momentum structure persists. Like all models, it should be interpreted probabilistically and used in conjunction with other confirmation signals, risk management tools, or strategy frameworks.
Inputs allow customization of the z-score calculation length and ATR window to tune the sensitivity of the model. The color scheme for up/down forecast segments can also be adjusted for personal preference. Additionally, users can toggle the polyline forecast on or off, which may be useful for pairing this indicator with others in a crowded chart layout.
Because the forecast path is calculated only on the last bar, it does not repaint or shift once the candle closes—preserving historical accuracy for visual inspection and backtesting reference. However, it is also sensitive to changes in volatility and momentum structure, meaning it updates each bar as conditions evolve, making it most effective in real-time decision support.
DeltaTrace Forecast is particularly well-suited for traders who want a deeper understanding of hidden momentum shifts across timeframes without relying on traditional trend-following tools. It reveals the shape of future possibility based on present dynamics, offering a compact yet powerful visualization of directional bias, transition risk, and path strength.
To maximize its utility, consider pairing DeltaTrace with volume profiles, order flow tools, higher timeframe zones, or market structure indicators. Used in context, it becomes a powerful companion to both systematic and discretionary trading styles—especially for those who appreciate a blend of mathematics and intuition in their market analysis.
This indicator is not based on magic or black-box logic; every component—from the z-score standardization to the volatility-adjusted deltas—is fully transparent and grounded in simple, interpretable mechanics. If you're looking for a reliable way to visualize multi-timeframe bias and momentum diffusion, DeltaTrace provides a unique lens through which to interpret future potential in an ever-shifting market landscape.
Volume MA Breakout T3 [Teyo69]🧭 Overview

Liquidity Trap Zones [PhenLabs]📊 Liquidity Trap Zones
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
The goal of the Liquidity Trap Zones indicator is to try and help traders identify areas where market liquidity appears abundant but is actually thin or artificial, helping traders avoid potential fake outs and false breakouts. This advanced indicator analyzes the relationship between price wicks and volume to detect “mirage” zones where large price movements occur on low volume, indicating potential liquidity traps.
By highlighting these deceptive zones on your charts, the indicator helps traders recognize where institutional players might be creating artificial liquidity to trap retail traders. This enables more informed decision-making and better risk management when approaching key price levels.
🚀 Points of Innovation

💡 What Makes This Unique
First indicator to specifically target liquidity mirages using wick-to-volume analysis
Proprietary normalization ensures consistent performance across all markets
Visual gradient design makes trap zones immediately recognizable
Combines multiple volatility and volume metrics for robust detection
🔬 How It Works
1. Wick Analysis: Calculates upper and lower wicks for each bar. Normalizes by average bar size to ensure scale independence
2. Mirage Score Calculation: Divides total wick size by volume to identify thin liquidity. Applies EMA smoothing to reduce noise. Scales result for optimal visibility
3. Zone Creation: Triggers when smoothed score crosses threshold. Creates gradient boxes centered on trap bar. Sizes zones based on current ATR for market-appropriate scaling
💡 Note: Liquidity Trap Zones works best when combined with traditional support/resistance analysis and volume profile indicators. The zones highlight areas of deceptive liquidity but should not be the sole factor in trading decisions. Always use proper risk management and confirm signals with price action.
TRAPPER Volume Trigger + SMAs + Buy/Sell SplitThe TRAPPER TRIGGER is a precision-based volume spike indicator designed for intraday traders, scalpers, and swing traders who rely on key volume activity to anticipate sharp market movements. It operates on volume delta logic, detecting disproportionate buying or selling activity that signifies potential market reversals or breakouts.
How It Works:
Volume Spike Logic (Delta-Based)
The script calculates a dynamic volume threshold using a moving average of historical volume data.
It identifies a delta spike by comparing current volume against this threshold—when volume exceeds it significantly, it suggests abnormal activity.
If the candle closes higher than it opens (bullish), the script registers it as a Buy Spike ⚖️.
If the candle closes lower than it opens (bearish), it marks a Sell Spike 🏁.
These are not based on the candle’s body size but the volume differential (delta) between buy/sell pressure inferred from candle direction.
Trigger Labels
Only the most recent buy/sell spike is labeled for clarity, avoiding clutter.
Labels are color-coded to match the candle body (e.g., bright green for bullish, magenta for bearish).
Label style: ⚖️ for Buy Spikes, 🏁 for Sell Spikes.
SMA Suite (Fully Customizable):
Six SMAs: 5 (yellow), 10 (blue), 20 (green), 50 (orange), 100 (red), 200 (white).
Each can be toggled and customized in the script settings for visibility and styling.
Key Benefits
Clean, minimalistic charting — focuses only on high-probability events.
Provides delta-driven insights without requiring access to full L2 order book data.
Works across any timeframe — logic recalculates and resets zones per timeframe switch.
Designed for sniper-style entries—ideal for traders who prefer minimal noise and maximum signal clarity.
Easily extendable with SR zones, AVWAP, liquidity levels, or alerts if desired in future updates.
Who It’s For
Scalpers and intraday traders looking for clean triggers.
Swing traders wanting confirmation of institutional moves.
Volume profile enthusiasts who need a trigger alert system.
Developers who want a base volume framework to build more advanced tools on.

LTF Volume markerLTF Volume Marker
Overview:
The LTF Volume Marker highlights candles that contain volume spikes on a lower timeframe (LTF), even while you are viewing a higher timeframe chart. It is designed to help identify hidden volume activity that may not be visible when aggregating candles.
This indicator is conceptually similar to a volume profile — but instead of showing distribution across price levels, it visualizes volume clusters within the structure of a sloped trend or time-based aggregation.
Key Features:
✅ Automatically detects high-volume candles on a user-defined lower timeframe
✅ Marks the price level of volume spikes using weighted average price (VWAP) within higher timeframe bars
✅ Supports both manual threshold and auto mode (which highlights top X% of volume candles in a selected range)
✅ Fully adjustable timeframe and date range
✅ Displays either a point or an area at the spike location or together
How It Works:
You define a Lower Timeframe (e.g. 1-minute) and optionally a threshold or use the auto mode to dynamically calculate it from past data.
On higher timeframes (e.g. 5-min, 15-min), the indicator looks inside each bar, finds all volume spikes, and plots the volume-weighted average price of those spikes.
If you are on the same timeframe as the LTF, it simply highlights candles with volume exceeding the threshold.
Use Cases:
Spotting hidden volume clusters inside trending moves
Validating support/resistance levels with underlying volume
Filtering false breakouts using intra-bar volume
Enhancing scalping and intraday setups by visualizing internal structure
Notes:
The indicator ignores future-looking data (lookahead=off) and only processes completed bars.
If the chart’s timeframe is lower than the selected LTF, the indicator will automatically disable itself.
Works best with aggregated symbols, such as futures or cryptocurrencies with high resolution data.
Sri_Momentum Burst Histogram📝 Description :
🌀 Sri_Momentum Burst Histogram — A Custom Momentum and Volatility Fusion Tool
The Sri_Momentum Burst Histogram is a unique technical analysis tool designed to visualize sudden changes in price momentum in the form of a dynamic, color-coded histogram. This indicator helps traders identify trend accelerations, early momentum shifts, and potential exhaustion in real time.
By combining a MACD-like momentum engine with a volatility-sensitive Bollinger Band range, this script offers an enhanced view of market bursts — moments where momentum "pops" beyond typical ranges. The result is a refined perspective on market sentiment, helping traders to anticipate reversals, follow breakouts, and assess the relative strength of ongoing trends.
🧠 Core Methodology
The indicator calculates the difference between a fast and slow EMA (Exponential Moving Average), similar to a MACD histogram.
This difference is then compared across candles to gauge the rate of change in momentum — referred to here as a “momentum burst.”
A sensitivity multiplier allows you to scale the response based on your preferred timeframe and trading style.
A volatility band, derived from Bollinger Band logic, is used to frame the relative intensity of the momentum change.
The histogram is divided into two parts:
Green/Lime Bars represent increasing and decreasing bullish momentum.
Red/Orange Bars represent increasing and decreasing bearish momentum.
⚙️ Customizable Inputs
Momentum Sensitivity: Adjust the responsiveness of the burst detection mechanism.
