Fractal Trend Detector [Skyrexio]Introduction
Fractal Trend Detector leverages the combination of Williams fractals and Alligator Indicator to help traders to understand with the high probability what is the current trend: bullish or bearish. It visualizes the potential uptrend with the coloring bars in green, downtrend - in red color. Indicator also contains two additional visualizations, the strong uptrend and downtrend as the green and red zones and the white line - trend invalidation level (more information in "Methodology and it's justification" paragraph)
Features
Optional strong up and downtrends visualization: with the specified parameter in settings user can add/hide the green and red zones of the strong up and downtrends.
Optional trend invalidation level visualization: with the specified parameter in settings user can add/hide the white line which shows the current trend invalidation price.
Alerts: user can set up the alert and have notifications when uptrend/downtrend has been started, strong uptrend/downtrend started.
Methodology and it's justification
In this script we apply the concept of trend given by Bill Williams in his book "Trading Chaos". This approach leverages the Alligator and Fractals in conjunction. Let's briefly explain these two components.
The Williams Alligator, created by Bill Williams, is a technical analysis tool used to identify trends and potential market reversals. It consists of three moving averages, called the jaw, teeth, and lips, which represent different time periods:
Jaw (Blue Line): The slowest line, showing a 13-period smoothed moving average shifted 8 bars forward.
Teeth (Red Line): The medium-speed line, an 8-period smoothed moving average shifted 5 bars forward.
Lips (Green Line): The fastest line, a 5-period smoothed moving average shifted 3 bars forward.
When the lines are spread apart and aligned, the "alligator" is "awake," indicating a strong trend. When the lines intertwine, the "alligator" is "sleeping," signaling a non-trending or range-bound market. This indicator helps traders identify when to enter or avoid trades.
Williams Fractals, introduced by Bill Williams, are a technical analysis tool used to identify potential reversal points on a price chart. A fractal is a series of at least five consecutive bars where the middle bar has the highest high (for a up fractal) or the lowest low (for a down fractal), compared to the two bars on either side.
Key Points:
Up fractal: Formed when the middle bar shows a higher high than the two preceding and two following bars, signaling a potential turning point downward.
Down fractal: Formed when the middle bar has a lower low than the two surrounding bars, indicating a potential upward reversal.
Fractals are often used with other indicators to confirm trend direction or reversal, helping traders make more informed trading decisions.
How we can use its combination? Let's explain the uptrend example. The up fractal breakout to the upside can be interpret as bullish sign, there is a high probability that uptrend has just been started. It can be explained as following: the up fractal created is the potential change in market's behavior. A lot of traders made a decision to sell and it created the pullback with the fractal at the top. But if price is able to reach the fractal's top and break it, this is a high probability sign that market "changed his opinion" and bullish trend has been started. The moment of breaking is the potential changing to the uptrend. Here is another one important point, this breakout shall happen above the Alligator's teeth line. If not, this crossover doesn't count and the downtrend potentially remaining. The inverted logic is true for the down fractals and downtrend.
According to this methodology we received the high probability up and downtrend changes, but we can even add it. If current trend established by the indicator as the uptrend and alligator's lines have the following order: lips is higher than teeth, teeth is higher than jaw, script count it as a strong uptrend and start print the green zone - zone between lips and jaw. It can be used as a high probability support of the current bull market. The inverted logic can be used for bearish trend and red zones: if lips is lower than teeth and teeth is lower than jaw it's interpreted by the indicator as a strong down trend.
Indicator also has the trend invalidation line (white line). If current bar is green and market condition is interpreted by the script as an uptrend you will see the invalidation line below current price. This is the price level which shall be crossed by the price to change up trend to down trend according to algorithm. This level is recalculated on every candle. The inverted logic is valid for downtrend.
How to use indicator
Apply it to desired chart and time frame. It works on every time frame.
Setup the settings with enabling/disabling visualization of strong up/downtrend zones and trend invalidation line. "Show Strong Bullish/Bearish Trends" and "Show Trend Invalidation Price" checkboxes in the settings. By default they are turned on.
Analyze the price action. Indicator colored candle in green if it's more likely that current state is uptrend, in red if downtrend has the high probability to be now. Green zones between two lines showing if current uptrend is likely to be strong. This zone can be used as a high probability support on the uptrend. The red zone show high probability of strong downtrend and can be used as a resistance. White line is showing the level where uptrend or downtrend is going be invalidated according to indicator's algorithm. If current bar is green invalidation line will be below the current price, if red - above the current price.
Set up the alerts if it's needed. Indicator has four custom alerts called "Uptrend has been started" when current bar closed as green and the previous was not green, "Downtrend has been started" when current bar closed red and the previous was not red, "Uptrend became strong" if script started printing the green zone "Downtrend became strong" if script started printing the red zone.

Options Series - Explode BB⭐ Bullish Zone:
⭐ Bearish Zone:
⭐ Neutral Zone:
The provided script integrates Bollinger Bands with different lengths (20 and 200 periods) and applies customized candle coloring based on certain conditions. Here's a breakdown of its importance and insights:
⭐ 1. Dual Bollinger Bands (BBs):
Bollinger Bands (BB) with 20-period length:
This is the standard setting for Bollinger Bands, with a 20-period simple moving average (SMA) as the central line and upper/lower bands derived from the standard deviation.
These bands are used to identify volatility. Wider bands indicate higher volatility, while narrower bands indicate low volatility.
200-period BB:
This is a longer-term indicator providing insight into the overall trend and long-term volatility.
The 200-period bands filter out noise and offer a "macro" view of price movements compared to the 20-period bands, which focus on short-term price actions.
⭐ 2. Overlay of Bollinger Bands and SMA:
The script plots the Bollinger Bands along with the SMA (Simple Moving Average) of the 200-period BB. This gives traders both a short-term (20-period) and long-term (200-period) perspective, which is valuable for detecting major trend shifts or key support and resistance zones.
Using multiple time frames (20-period for short-term and 200-period for long-term) can help traders spot both immediate opportunities and overarching trends.
⭐ 3. Candle Coloring Based on Key Conditions:
Bullish Signal (GreenFluroscent): When the price closes above the upper 200-period Bollinger Band, the candle turns green, indicating a potential bullish breakout.
Bearish Signal (RedFluroscent): If the price closes below the lower 200-period Bollinger Band, the candle turns red, suggesting a bearish breakout.
Neutral or Uncertain Market: Candles are gray when the price remains between the upper and lower bands, indicating a lack of a strong directional bias.
This color-coded visualization allows traders to quickly assess market sentiment based on the Bollinger Bands' extremes.
⭐ 4. Strategic Importance of the Setup:
Multi-timeframe Analysis: Combining short-term (20-period) and long-term (200-period) Bollinger Bands enables traders to assess the market's overall volatility and trend strength. The longer-term bands act as a reference for broader trend direction, while the shorter-term bands can signal shorter-term pullbacks or entry/exit points.
Breakout Identification: By color-coding the candles when prices cross either the upper or lower 200-period bands, the script makes it easier to spot potential breakouts. This can be particularly helpful in trading strategies that rely on volatility expansions or trend-following tactics.
⭐ 5. Customization and Flexibility:
Custom Colors: The script uses distinct fluorescent green and red colors to highlight key bullish and bearish conditions, providing clear visual cues.
Simplicity with Flexibility: Despite its simplicity, the script leaves room for customization, allowing traders to adjust the Bollinger Band multipliers or apply different conditions to candle coloring for more nuanced setups.
This script enhances standard Bollinger Band usage by introducing multi-timeframe analysis, breakout signals, and visual cues for trend strength, making it a powerful tool for both trend-following and mean-reversion strategies.
🚀 Conclusion:
This script effectively simplifies volatility analysis by visually marking bullish, bearish, and neutral zones, making it a robust tool for identifying trade opportunities across multiple timeframes. Its dual-band approach ensures both trend-following and mean-reversion strategies are supported.
Fractal Levels [BigBeluga]The Fractal Levels - BigBeluga indicator is a specialized tool that detects significant market highs and lows, ranking them by their normalized volume. This indicator is designed to help traders identify crucial price levels that are likely to influence market behavior, enabling better decision-making in trading. By gathering normalized volume around each fractal point, it creates a comprehensive view of the strength and relevance of price reversal points, which can be visualized as numbers or zones on the chart.
🔵KEY FEATURES & USAGE
● High and Low Detection with Volume Ranking:
The indicator detects market highs and lows using a user-defined length setting. For each detected fractal point (high or low), it collects normalized volume from a set number of bars before and after the fractal point (the number is based on the length input). This collection allows the indicator to produce an average of the normalized volume, which is then displayed as a number above or below the corresponding fractal arrows, visually indicating the importance of the high or low.
● Plotting Levels from Fractals:
From these high and low points, the indicator plots key levels. In settings, traders can choose between a wide or tight zone type.
If a price level coincides with multiple pivot points, the indicator highlights this as a significant zone. These zones represent areas where price tends to react, making them critical for identifying potential support and resistance levels.
● Fractal Boxes with Delta Volume Data:
Fractal boxes are shown as gray boxes, representing areas where price pivots occurred, and they also contain delta volume information. Delta volume is calculated by summing the positive and negative volumes within the length range, producing the total delta inside each fractal box. This is particularly useful for analyzing volume shifts around key levels.
● Broken Levels Highlighting:
When a plotted level is broken (price closes above or below it), the level can be removed from the chart automatically. However, in the settings, you can enable a feature to highlight broken levels as gray areas, providing insight into past price behavior. This is helpful for tracking historical support and resistance zones.
> Important note: If no volume data provided indicator wont work
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
Fractal Length and Filter Settings:
Adjust the Length parameter to control the number of bars used to detect pivot highs and lows. A longer length will result in fewer fractals being identified, focusing on more significant price moves. The Filter option allows you to set a volume threshold, filtering out minor fractals that do not meet the minimum volume requirements.
Levels Detection (Wide or Tight):
Choose between Wide and Tight zones for fractal levels detection. A tight zone focuses on smaller price areas around pivot points, while a wide zone expands the detection range, highlighting larger zones of influence around fractals.
Delta Volume Display for Fractals:
Toggle Delta Volume Fractals to show or hide the delta volume information inside fractal boxes. When enabled, the indicator calculates and displays the total delta volume within the range of bars surrounding each fractal point.
Broken Levels Visibility:
Enable Broken Levels to highlight levels that have been crossed by price. When disabled, broken fractal levels will be removed from the chart after price crosses them.
🔵CONCLUSION
The Fractal Levels indicator provides traders with an advanced way to analyze price highs and lows by combining fractal detection with volume dynamics. By identifying key market levels through normalized volume ranking, delta volume analysis, and level plotting, this tool is invaluable for spotting potential support and resistance zones. Whether you're focusing on short-term trading or longer-term price movements, Fractal Levels offers the precision and flexibility needed to optimize your strategy.
LRS-Strategy: 200-EMA Buffer & Long/Short Signals LRS-Strategy: 200-EMA Buffer & Long/Short Signals
This indicator is designed to help traders implement the Leveraged Return Strategy (LRS) using the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) as a key trend-following signal. The indicator offers clear long and short signals by analyzing the price movements relative to the 200-day EMA, enhanced by customizable buffer zones for increased precision.
Key Features:
200-Day EMA: The main trend indicator. When the price is above the 200-day EMA, the market is considered in an uptrend, and when it is below, it indicates a downtrend.
Customizable Buffer Zones: Users can define a percentage buffer around the 200-day EMA (default is 3%). The upper and lower buffer zones help filter out noise and prevent premature signals.
Precise Long/Short Signals:
Long Signal: Triggered when the price moves from below the lower buffer zone, crosses the 200-day EMA, and then breaks above the upper buffer zone.
Short Signal: Triggered when the price moves from above the upper buffer zone, crosses the 200-day EMA, and then breaks below the lower buffer zone.
Alternating Signals: Ensures that a new signal (long or short) is only generated after the opposite signal has been triggered, preventing multiple signals of the same type without a reversal.
Clear Visual Aids: The indicator displays the 200-day EMA and buffer zones on the chart, along with buy (long) and sell (short) signals. This makes it easy to track trends and time entries/exits.
How to Use:
Long Entry: Look for the price to move below the lower buffer, cross the 200-day EMA from below, and then break out of the upper buffer to confirm a long signal.
Short Entry: Look for the price to move above the upper buffer, cross below the 200-day EMA, and then break below the lower buffer to confirm a short signal.
This indicator is perfect for traders who prefer a structured, trend-following approach, using clear rules to minimize noise and identify meaningful long or short opportunities.

Combine the indicator with other technical analysis tools and indicators to confirm trade signals and enhance your decision-making process.
TrendzonesHi all!
This indicator plots trendlines. These lines are not plotted as traditional lines, but are instead zones. This is useful if you think that trend lines are more of an area of importance than a line.
It does so by finding pivots and connecting two of them if they have not been broken (more about that later) in-between the pivots.
These trend zones can be used as support/resistance that the price can react to.
• The first trendline is drawn between the high/low of the first and second pivot.
• The second trendline's first point is at the open/close of the pivot (either the first pivot or the second one) that has the smallest difference between the high/low and the nearest open/close. The same difference (between the high/low and the open/close) is then subtracted from the other pivot's high/low. This creates a point at the other pivot bar. A trendline is then drawn between the points.
This creates two trendlines and a zone between the two trendlines. This zone is the one kept and is shown by the script.
You can define the pivot lengths used to find trend zones (defaults to 3/3). You can also define the number of pivots to look back for, to find trend zones and the number of active zones, both of these defaults to 3. You can also choose to let the script create new zones based on time ("Oldest") or the zone that is furthest away in price, this defaults to be based on time but it can be useful for letting the script remove the one which is furthest away in price. Another useful setting is the one called "Cross source". This defines the price that has to cross the trend zone to make it invalid (broken). This defaults to "Close", i.e. the bar has to close on the "wrong side" of the trend zone.
The current zones are shown with an extension to the right, but you can also choose to keep the previous lines (without extension). Please note that kept zones are only the ones that are broken, not the replaced ones. I.e. the zones that are kept are the ones that are crossed by the user defined "cross source" (defaults to the closing/current price of the bar).
Hope this makes sense, let me know if you have any questions.
Best of trading luck!
Indecisive and Explosive CandlesThe Explosive & Base Candle with Gaps Identifier is an indicator designed to enhance your market analysis by identifying critical candle types and gaps in price action. This tool aids traders in pinpointing zones of significant buyer-seller interaction and potential institutional activity, providing valuable insights for strategic trading decisions.
Main Features:
Base Candle Identification: This feature detects Base candles, also known as indecisive candles, within the price action. A Base candle is characterized by a body (the difference between the close and open prices) that is less than or equal to 50% of its total range (the difference between the high and low prices). These candles mark zones where buyers and sellers are evenly matched, highlighting areas of potential support and resistance.
Explosive Candle Identification: The indicator identifies Explosive candles, which are indicative of strong market moves often driven by institutional activity. An Explosive candle is defined by a body that is greater than 70% of its total range. Recognizing these candles helps traders spot significant momentum and potential breakout points.
Supply and Demand Zone Identification: Both Base and Explosive candles are essential for identifying supply and demand zones within the price action. These zones are crucial for traders to place their trades based on the likelihood of price reversals or continuations.
Gap Detection: The indicator also detects gaps, defined as the difference between the close price of one candle and the open price of the next. Gaps are significant because prices often return to these levels to "fill the gap," providing opportunities for traders to predict price movements and place strategic trades.
Visual Markings and Alerts: The indicator visually marks Base and Explosive candles as well as gaps directly on the chart, making them easily identifiable at a glance. Traders can also set customizable alerts to notify them when these key candle types and gaps appear, ensuring they never miss an important trading opportunity.
Customizable Settings: Tailor the indicator’s settings to match your trading style and preferences. Adjust the criteria for Base and Explosive candles, as well as how gaps are detected and displayed, to suit your specific analysis needs.

Integrate with Your Strategy: Use the insights provided by the indicator to enhance your existing trading strategy, improving your entry and exit points based on the identified supply and demand zones.
The Explosive & Base Candle with Gaps Identifier is an invaluable tool for traders aiming to refine their market analysis and make more informed trading decisions. By identifying critical areas of price action, this indicator supports traders in navigating the complexities of the financial markets with greater precision and confidence.
Inversion Fair Value Gap Consumption | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Inversion Fair Value Gap Consumption (IFVG) indicator! Inversion Fair Value Gaps occur when a Fair Value Gap becomes invalidated. They reverse the role of the original Fair Value Gap, making a bullish zone bearish and vice versa. IFVGs get "consumed" when market orders fill the gap occurred. With this indicator, you can now see the percentage of the IFVG's consumed part. For more information about the process, read the "HOW DOES IT WORK" section of the description.
Features of the new Consumption IFVG Indicator :
Render Bullish / Bearish IFVG Zones
See The Consumed Part Of The IFVG Zones
Combination Of Overlapping FVG Zones
Variety Of Zone Detection / Sensitivity / Filtering / Invalidation Settings
High Customizability
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator stands out with its ability to render the consumed part of IFVGs. You can see how much of the IFVG's gap is filled, with it's percentage. Also the ability to combine overlapping FVG zones will result in cleaner charts for traders. You can customize the FVG Filtering method, FVG & IFVG Zone Invalidation, Detection Sensitivity etc. according to your needs to get the best performance from the indicator.
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
A Fair Value Gap generally occur when there is an imbalance in the market. They can be detected by specific formations within the chart. An Inversion Fair Value Gap is when a FVG becomes invalidated, thus reversing the direction of the FVG.
IFVGs get consumed when a Close / Wick enters the IFVG zone. Check this example:
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
FVG Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for FVG Zone Invalidation.
IFVG Zone Invalidation -> Select between Wick & Close price for IFVG Zone Invalidation. This setting also switches the type for IFVG consumption.
Zone Filtering -> With "Average Range" selected, algorithm will find FVG zones in comparison with average range of last bars in the chart. With the "Volume Threshold" option, you may select a Volume Threshold % to spot FVGs with a larger total volume than average.
FVG Detection -> With the "Same Type" option, all 3 bars that formed the FVG should be the same type. (Bullish / Bearish). If the "All" option is selected, bar types may vary between Bullish / Bearish.
Detection Sensitivity -> You may select between Low, Normal or High FVG detection sensitivity. This will essentially determine the size of the spotted FVGs, with lower sensitivies resulting in spotting bigger FVGs, and higher sensitivies resulting in spotting all sizes of FVGs.
Show Historic Zones -> If this option is on, the indicator will render invalidated IFVG zones as well as current IFVG zones. For a cleaner look at current IFVG zones which are not invalidated yet, you can turn this option off.
Sentiment Range MA [ChartPrime]The "Sentiment Range MA" provides traders with a dynamic perspective on market activity, emphasizing both stability in chop zones and quick adaptability outside of them.

Trigger Smoothing: Refine boundary definitions based on your market insights.
ATR Period: Set the period for the ATR, influencing the surrounding boundary's width.
Range Multiplier: Control the ATR's effect on the range.
Range Switch: Flip between high-low and open-close values for range determination.
Visuals
Sentiment Range MA Line:
- This is the flowing line that transitions between green and red.
- When it's green, it indicates bullish momentum in the market. This suggests a prevailing upward trend and can be an entry cue for traders who trade with the trend.
- When it turns red, bearish sentiments dominate. It indicates the potential beginning of a downtrend or a continued downtrend. Traders might interpret this as a signal to be cautious, to short the market, or to exit long positions.
The Chop Zone:
- This is the space between the price candles and the Sentiment Range MA line. It represents a region where the price is considered to be moving sideways or without a clear direction. Price movements within the chop zone might not be substantial enough to warrant a trading decision. Only when the price breaks out of this zone do we see the Sentiment Range MA line change color, signaling a potential trading opportunity.
By interpreting these visuals, traders can make more informed decisions based on the prevailing market sentiment and trend. The chart becomes a tool, providing both an overview of the market condition and potential entry or exit points based on the Sentiment Range MA indicator's readings.
Detailed Settings Overview
Understanding the settings of the Sentiment Range MA Indicator can greatly enhance its utility in your trading strategy. Let's dive deeper into each:
Output Smoothing:
Purpose: It refines the SR MA to provide a clearer trend perspective.
Functionality:
- At `0`, it ensures the indicator responds immediately to price deviations from the chop zone.
- At higher values, it transforms the indicator into a volatility-adjusted moving average.
Filtering Modes:
- Single Filtering: Prioritizes speed.
- Double Filtering: Emphasizes stability.
Trigger Smoothing:
Purpose: Used for the range break detection.
Functionality: It dampens the indicator's sensitivity to sudden market volatility, preventing unnecessary triggers.
ATR Length:
Purpose: Governs the retrospective period for the chop zone.
Functionality:
- Higher values offer a more consistent and broad range size, capturing more historical data.
- Lower values allow for a more adaptive and responsive range.
Range Multiplier:
Purpose: Modifies the breadth of the range around the SR MA.
Functionality: Increasing the multiplier will extend the range, giving more leeway before triggering, while decreasing it will narrow the range, making the indicator more responsive to price changes.
Range Style:
Purpose: Decides which candlestick data is factored into the true range calculations.
Options:
- Body: Uses the open and close values.
- Wick: Accounts for the high and low values.
Functionality: Switching between styles lets you prioritize either the overall volatility (Wick) or just the concluded price action for a period (Body).
By fine-tuning these settings, traders can tailor the Sentiment Range MA Indicator to various market conditions and personal trading styles, ensuring optimal decision-making.
Quick Start
Based on the provided chart, here's a brief explanation of the default settings for the Sentiment Range MA Indicator:
Length: Set at ` 20 `.
- This determines the base moving average period. A standard setting, it calculates the average price over the last 20 periods, providing traders with a clear perspective of short-term trends.
ATR Length: Set at ` 200 `.
- This adjusts the lookback period for the Average True Range (ATR), which in turn influences the chop zone calculation. At a setting of 200, it offers a comprehensive view, considering a longer stretch of historical data.
Range Multiplier: Set at ` 6 `.
- This multiplies the ATR value, widening or narrowing the band around the SR MA. A setting of 6 means the range around the SR MA is determined by multiplying the ATR by 6, offering a broader fluctuation zone.
On the chart, the green line represents the bullish sentiment and the red represents the bearish sentiment. Price movements above and below these lines can be used as potential buy or sell signals respectively. Fine-tuning these settings can cater the Sentiment Range MA Indicator to your specific trading strategy and market condition preferences.
Alternative Settings
For traders looking to adapt to faster market conditions or prefer a more agile analysis, here's a brief description of the alternative settings for the Sentiment Range MA Indicator:
Length: Set at ` 3 `.
- This highly responsive setting calculates the average price over the last 3 periods. Ideal for quick market movements, it offers traders insights into very short-term price trends and potentially swift trade opportunities.
ATR Length: Set at ` 50 `.
- This shorter lookback period for the Average True Range (ATR) focuses on more recent market volatility, providing a tighter and more current chop zone calculation. It's suitable for those wanting to respond to recent market shifts.
Range Multiplier: Set at ` 4 `.
- Multiplying the ATR by 4 narrows down the buffer around the SR MA. This creates a tighter sentiment range, possibly resulting in more frequent crossovers and trading signals.
In the provided chart, the green line still denotes bullish momentum while the red symbolizes bearish sentiment. These alternative settings might generate more frequent signals, so traders should ensure their strategy is aligned with this heightened sensitivity.
Wrapping Up
The Sentiment Range MA melds stability and agility, making it a valuable tool in your trading toolkit. As always, before integrating new indicators, take the time to understand its nuances and potential impacts on your strategy.

Volume Orderbook (Expo)█ Overview
The Volume Orderbook indicator is a volume analysis tool that visually resembles an order book. It's used for displaying trading volume data in a way that may be easier to interpret or more intuitive for certain traders, especially those familiar with order book analysis.
This indicator aggregate and display the total trading volume at different price levels over the entire range of data available on the chart, similar to how an order book displays current buy and sell orders at different price levels. However, unlike a real-time order book, it only considers historical trading data, not current bid and ask orders. This provides a 'historical order book' of sorts, indicating where most trading activities have taken place.
Summary
This is a volume-based indicator that shows the volume traded at specific price levels, highlighting areas of high and low activity.
█ Calculations
The algorithm operates by calculating the cumulative volume traded in each specific price zone within the range of data displayed on the chart. The length of each horizontal bar corresponds to the total volume of trades that occurred within that particular price zone.
In essence, when the price is in a specific zone, the volume is added to the bar representing that zone. A thicker bar implies a larger price zone, meaning that more volume is accumulated within that bar. Therefore, the thickness of the bar visually indicates the amount of trading activity that took place within the associated price zone.
█ How to use
The Volume Orderbook indicator serves as a beneficial tool for traders by identifying key price levels with a significant amount of trading activity. These high-volume areas could represent potential support or resistance levels due to the large number of orders situated there. The indicator's ability to spotlight these zones might be particularly advantageous in pinpointing breakouts or breakdowns when prices move beyond these high-volume regions. Moreover, the indicator could also assist traders in recognizing anomalies, such as when an unusually large volume of trades occurs at unconventional price levels.
Identify Key Price Levels: The indicator highlights high-volume areas where a significant number of trades have occurred, which could act as potential support or resistance levels. This is based on the notion that many traders have established positions at these prices, so these levels may serve as significant areas for market activity in the future.
Volume Nodes: These are the peaks (high-volume areas) and troughs (low-volume areas) seen on the indicator. High-volume nodes represent price levels at which a large amount of volume has been traded, typically areas of strong support or resistance. Conversely, low-volume nodes, where very little volume has been traded, indicate price levels that traders have shown little interest in the past and could potentially act as barriers to price. It's important to note that while high trading volume can imply significant market interest, it doesn't always mean the price will stop or reverse at these levels. Sometimes, prices can quickly move through high-volume areas if there are no current orders (demand) to match with the new orders (supply).
Analyze Market Psychology: The distribution of volume across different price levels can provide insights into the market's psychology, revealing the balance of power between buyers and sellers.
Highlight Potential Reversal Points: The indicator can help identify price levels with high traded volume where the market might be more likely to reverse since these levels have previously attracted significant interest from traders.
Validate Breakouts or Breakdowns: If the price moves convincingly past a high-volume node, it could indicate a strong trend, suggesting a potential breakout or breakdown. Conversely, if the price struggles to move past a high-volume node, it could suggest that the trend is weak and might potentially reverse.
Trade Reversals: High-volume areas could also indicate potential turning points in the market. If the price reaches these levels and then starts to move away, it might suggest a possible price reversal.
Confirm Other Signals: As with all technical indicators, the "Volume Orderbook" should ideally be used in conjunction with other forms of technical and fundamental analysis to confirm signals and increase the odds of successful trades.
Summary
The Volume Orderbook indicator allows traders to identify key price levels, analyze market psychology, highlight potential reversal points, validate breakouts or breakdowns, confirm other trading signals, and anticipate possible trade reversals, thereby serving as a robust tool for trading analysis.
█ Settings
Source: The user can select the source, the default of which is "close." This implies that volume is added to the volume order book when the closing price falls within a specific zone. Users can modify this to any indicator present on their chart. For example, if it's set to an SMA (Simple Moving Average) of 20, the volume will be added to the volume order book when the SMA 20 falls within the specific zone.
Rows and width: These settings allow users to adjust the representation of volume order book zones. "ROWS" pertains to the number of volume order book zones displayed, while "WIDTH" refers to the breadth of each zone.
Table and Grid: These settings allow traders to customize the Volume order-book's position and appearance. By adjusting the "left" parameter, users can shift the position of the Volume order book on the chart; a higher value pushes the order book further to the right. Additionally, users can enable "Table Border" and "Table Grid" options to add gridlines or borders to the Volume order book for easier viewing and interpretation.

Volumetric Inverse Fair Value Gap (IFVG) [Kodexius]The Volumetric Inverse Fair Value Gap (IFVG) indicator detects and visualizes inverse fair value gaps (IFVGs) zones where previous inefficiencies in price (fair value gaps) are later invalidated or “inverted.”
Unlike traditional FVG indicators, this tool integrates volume-based analysis to quantify the bullish, bearish, and overall strength of each inversion. It visually represents these metrics within a dynamically updating box on the chart, giving traders deeper insight into market reactions when liquidity imbalances are filled and reversed.
Features
Inverse fair value gap detection
The script identifies bullish and bearish fair value gaps, stores them as pending zones, and turns them into inverse fair value gaps when price trades back through the gap in the opposite direction. Each valid inversion becomes an active IFVG zone on the chart.
Sensitivity control with ATR filter and strict mode
A minimum gap size based on ATR is used to filter out small and noisy gaps. Strict mode can be enabled so that any wick contact between the relevant candles prevents the gap from being accepted as a fair value gap. This lets you decide how clean and selective the zones should be.
Show Last N Boxes control
The indicator can keep only the most recent N IFVG zones visible. Older zones are removed from the chart once the number of active objects exceeds the user setting. This prevents clutter on higher timeframes or long histories and keeps attention on the most relevant recent zones.
Ghost box for the original gap
When the ghost option is enabled, the script draws a faint box that marks the original fair value gap from which the inverse zone came. This makes it easy to see where the initial imbalance appeared and how price later inverted that area.
Volumetric bull, bear and strength metrics
For each IFVG, the script estimates how much of the bar volume is associated with buying and how much with selling, then computes bull percentage, bear percentage and a strength score that uses a percentile rank of volume. These values are stored with the IFVG object and drive the visualization inside the zone.
Three band visual layout inside each IFVG
Each active IFVG is drawn as a container with three horizontal sections. The top band represents the bull percentage, the middle band the bear percentage and the bottom band the strength metric. The width of each bar reflects its respective value so you can read the structure of the zone at a glance.
Customizable colors and label text
Colors for bull, bear, strength, the empty background area, the ghost box and label text can be adjusted in the inputs. This allows you to match the indicator to different chart themes or highlight specific aspects such as strength or direction.
Automatic invalidation and cleanup
When price clearly closes beyond the IFVG in a way that breaks the logic of that zone, the script marks it as inactive and deletes all boxes and labels linked to it. Only valid and active IFVGs remain on the chart, which keeps the display clean and focused.
Calculations
1. Detecting Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)
A fair value gap is identified when price action leaves an imbalance between candle wicks. Depending on the mode:
Bullish FVG: When low > high
Bearish FVG: When high < low
Optionally, the strict mode ensures wicks do not touch.
The gap’s significance is filtered using the ATR multiplier input to exclude minor noise.
Once detected, FVGs are stored as pending zones until inverted by opposite movement (price crossing through).
bool bull_cond = strict_mode ? (low > high ) : (close > high )
bool bear_cond = strict_mode ? (high < low ) : (close < low )
float gap_size = 0.0
if bull_cond and close > open
gap_size := low - high
if bear_cond and close < open
gap_size := low - high
2. Creating IFVGs (Inversions)
When price later moves through a previous FVG in the opposite direction, an Inverse FVG (IFVG) is created.
For example:
A previous bearish FVG becomes bullish IFVG if price moves upward through it.
A previous bullish FVG becomes bearish IFVG if price moves downward through it.
The IFVG is initialized with structural boundaries (top, bottom) and timestamp metadata to anchor visualization.
if not p.is_bull_gap and close > p.top
inverted := true
to_bull := true
if p.is_bull_gap and close < p.btm
inverted := true
to_bull := false
3. Volume Metrics (Bull, Bear, Strength)
Each IFVG calculates buy and sell volumes from the current bar’s price spread and total volume.
Bull % = proportion of upward (buy) volume
Bear % = proportion of downward (sell) volume
Strength % = normalized percentile rank of total volume
These are obtained through a custom function that estimates directional volume contribution:
calc_metrics(float o, float h, float l, float c, float v) =>
float rng = h - l
float buy_v = 0.0
if rng == 0
buy_v := v * 0.5
else
if c >= o
buy_v := v * ((math.abs(c - o) + (math.min(o, c) - l)) / rng)
else
buy_v := v * ((h - math.max(o, c)) / rng)
float sell_v = v - buy_v
float total = buy_v + sell_v
float p_bull = total > 0 ? buy_v / total : 0
float p_bear = total > 0 ? sell_v / total : 0
float p_str = ta.percentrank(v, 100) / 100.0
Ultimate_Price_Action_Tool_V2 by chaitu50cUltimate_Price_Action_Tool_V2 by chaitu50c — Session-Based SR Box Engine
This indicator builds clean, session-aware support and resistance “zones” from pure price action. It is designed for intraday and positional traders who want objective, rule-based zones instead of manual drawing.
Core Logic
Price-action based MAIN zones
Detects bullish and bearish breakouts using a strict body-structure:
Single-candle and double-candle breakout patterns.
Breakouts are confirmed only when closes break beyond previous highs/lows.
From each valid breakout, the tool builds a MAIN Support or MAIN Resistance box:
For bullish breaks, the zone is created from a combined low to the nearest open/close in the breakout combo.
For bearish breaks, the zone is created from a combined high to the nearest open/close in the breakout combo.
Optional first-box logic:
Can create the very first MAIN zone in a session from a simple opposite-color pair (without a full breakout), if enabled.
SUB zones on break
When price breaks a MAIN Support downwards with a red candle, the MAIN box is removed/frozen and:
A new SUB Resistance box is created above, using the current bar’s structure.
When price breaks a MAIN Resistance upwards with a green candle:
A new SUB Support box is created below.
SUB zones are optional and can be fully disabled if the user prefers a clean MAIN-only view.
Session Handling
The script is fully session-aware and can work in different market structures:
Session Mode options
Clock Session
Uses a fixed time window (e.g., 09:15–15:30).
Zones can be shown only inside the session or kept visible outside, depending on settings.
New Day
Each new trading day is treated as a fresh session.
Auto Gap
A new session starts whenever the time gap between candles exceeds a user-defined threshold (in minutes).
Session IDs and history
Each new session gets its own ID.
You can display zones for the last N sessions (including current).
Older sessions fade out visually but remain internally tracked to control visibility.
Main Features & Options
Initial Right Offset
Every new zone is projected to the right by a configurable number of bars.
All active boxes continuously extend with this offset, keeping zones clearly projected into the future.
Single MAIN per side (per session)
Optional constraint to have only:
One active MAIN Support and
One active MAIN Resistance
per session on the chart.
This prevents overcrowding and focuses on the most recent key structure.
MAIN vs SUB Overlap Control
When a new MAIN zone overlaps an existing SUB zone, you can choose:
Suppress MAIN (ignore the new MAIN if it clashes with a SUB),
Remove SUB (delete overlapping SUB zones and keep the new MAIN), or
Allow Both (plot everything and let the trader decide).
Vertical overlap is evaluated using a configurable minimum overlap percentage.
SUB suppression under MAIN
SUB boxes that overlap strongly with active MAIN zones can be auto-suppressed to avoid redundant clutter.
This suppression uses the same percent-based overlap logic.
Broken MAIN box handling
When a MAIN zone is broken:
Option 1: Fully delete it (classic behavior).
Option 2: Convert it into a 1-bar “marker” box at its origin, so you still see where the original zone formed without extending into the future.
Break candle coloring
The candle that breaks a MAIN zone can be optionally painted:
Red when breaking support.
Green when breaking resistance.
Helps visually confirm genuine breaks vs. simple intrabar tests.
Visual & Styling Controls
Separate style controls for:
MAIN Support / MAIN Resistance
Independent fill and border colors.
SUB Support / SUB Resistance
Independent fill and border colors.
Opacity and border colors are internally managed so that:
Recent sessions are clearly visible.
Older sessions are softly faded to maintain context without noise.
Typical Use Cases
Intraday traders looking for:
Clean, rule-based supply and demand zones.
Zones that respect actual session structure (clock, daily, or gap-based).
Swing traders who:
Want to track how current price reacts to the most recent 1–N sessions’ zones.
Price action traders who:
Prefer breakout-based zones rather than indicator-driven levels.
Need automatic zone management (creation, extension, break handling, and suppression).
This tool is built to be modular and configurable: you can run it minimal (only MAIN zones, single side per session) or fully featured (MAIN + SUB, multi-session history, overlap handling, and break paints). All logic is strictly price-action based with no dependency on volume or external indicators.

## 📋 WHY YM? LEVERAGING LOW VOLATILITY
### The YM Advantage
Most traders avoid YM because "it doesn't move enough." This is precisely why it's perfect for precision scalping:
| Factor | NQ | YM | Advantage |
|--------|----|----|-----------|
| **Daily Range** | 300-600 pts | 150-400 pts | More predictable moves |
| **Tick Value** | $5/tick (4 ticks/pt) | $5/tick (1 tick/pt) | Simpler math |
| **Retail Noise** | High | Low | Cleaner signals |
| **Whipsaws** | Frequent | Rare | Fewer fakeouts |
| **Trend Persistence** | Short | Long | Easier holds |
| **Fill Quality** | Variable | Consistent | Better execution |
### Why 3-7 Trades is the Sweet Spot

## 🔧 YM-SPECIFIC OPTIMIZATIONS
This unified indicator has been specifically tuned for YM's characteristics:
### Tier Thresholds
| Tier | NQ (Original) | YM (Optimized) | Rationale |
|------|---------------|----------------|-----------|
| S-Tier | 100 pts | **50 pts** | YM's daily range is ~50% of NQ |
| A-Tier | 50 pts | **25 pts** | Proportional scaling |
| B-Tier | 20 pts | **12 pts** | Still 5%+ of typical daily range |
### Filter Adjustments
| Filter | NQ Value | YM Value | Why |
|--------|----------|----------|-----|
| Volume Ratio | 1.5x | **1.8x** | Higher bar = less retail noise |
| Delta Threshold | 60% | **62%** | Tighter for cleaner signals |
| Body Ratio | 70% | **72%** | More conviction required |
| Range Multiplier | 1.3x | **1.4x** | Bigger move = real signal |
| Gap ATR% | 30% | **25%** | Smaller gaps still significant |
| Zone Age | 50 bars | **75 bars** | Zones last longer in slow market |
### Why These Changes Work
1. **Higher Volume Bar**: YM has more institutional flow. Requiring 1.8x volume ensures we're catching real moves, not retail chop.
2. **Tighter Delta**: With less noise, we can demand clearer buyer/seller dominance before entering.
3. **Longer Zone Life**: YM trends persist longer. A zone that would be stale in NQ is still viable in YM.
4. **Smaller Gap Threshold**: YM gaps are naturally smaller. 25% of ATR in YM is significant institutional activity.

## 📐 SIGNAL TYPES EXPLAINED
### 1. GRA Tier Signals (S🎯, A🎯, B🎯)
These are the primary signals from the merged GRA system:
```
TIER SIGNAL REQUIREMENTS:
═══════════════════════════
ALL must be TRUE:
├── ✓ Point movement meets tier threshold
├── ✓ Volume ≥ 1.8x average
├── ✓ Delta ≥ 62% (buy or sell dominance)
├── ✓ Body ≥ 72% of candle range
├── ✓ Range ≥ 1.4x average
├── ✓ Small opposite wick (<50% of body)
├── ✓ CVD confirms direction (if enabled)
├── ✓ Active session (LDN/NY/PWR)
└── ✓ Confluence Score ≥ minimum (default 5)
```
### 2. Zone Entry Signals (Z🎯)
When price enters a DeepFlow zone with confirmation:
```
ZONE ENTRY REQUIREMENTS:
═══════════════════════════
ALL must be TRUE:
├── ✓ Price inside fresh/tested zone (not broken)
├── ✓ Delta ≥ 62% in zone direction
├── ✓ Volume ≥ 1.5x average
└── ✓ Active session
NOTE: Z🎯 only appears when NOT already showing tier signal
(prevents duplicate signals on same candle)
```

└── ✓ Active session
USE: Horizontal lines at high/low act as future S/R
```
---
## 🎯 TRADING STRATEGIES
### Strategy 1: Zone + Tier Confluence (Highest Probability)
```
THE ULTIMATE YM SETUP:
═══════════════════════
Setup:
1. Active DeepFlow zone exists (green box below for long)
2. Price pulls back INTO the zone
3. Tier signal fires INSIDE the zone (S🎯/A🎯)
4. Score shows 7+/10
Entry: Signal candle close
Stop: Below zone bottom (for longs)
Target: Based on tier (1.5-2.5:1 R:R)
Why It Works:
• Zone = institutional limit orders
• Tier signal = momentum confirmation
• Double confirmation = high probability
Expected Win Rate: 70-75%
```
### Strategy 2: Pure Tier Signal with POC Stop
```
SNIPER TIER TRADE:
══════════════════
Setup:
1. Tier signal appears (preferably A or S)
2. Score ≥ 5/10
3. Note POC level on signal candle
4. Red/green stop/target lines appear
Entry: Signal candle close
Stop: Beyond POC (shown on chart)
Target: Auto-calculated based on tier
Key: POC placement matters
• POC near candle bottom (longs) = STRONG
• POC in middle = weaker signal
• POC at extreme = possible exhaustion
Expected Win Rate: 60-65%
```
### Strategy 3: Zone Bounce (Continuation)
```
ZONE BOUNCE TRADE:
══════════════════
Setup:
1. Fresh zone created during session
2. Price leaves zone, moves in zone direction
3. Price returns to test zone (within 15 bars)
4. Z🎯 signal appears or rejection candle forms
Entry: At CE line (middle of zone)
Stop: Beyond zone edge
Target: Previous swing high/low
Why It Works:
• Zones represent unfilled orders
• First retest often finds support/resistance
• Lower volatility = cleaner bounces
Expected Win Rate: 55-60%
```
### Strategy 4: Single Print Scalp
```
SINGLE PRINT SCALP:
═══════════════════
Setup:
1. Single Print (SP) marker appears
2. Note the gold/purple lines at high/low
3. Wait for price to return to SP level
4. Look for rejection or tier signal at level
Entry: At SP line with confirmation
Stop: Beyond the SP line
Target: Quick 1:1 or to next structure
Why It Works:
• SP = price moved too fast, orders unfilled
• Price often returns to "fill" these levels
• YM's slower pace makes retests likely
Expected Win Rate: 55-60%
```

Ellipse Price Action Indicator v2 (Upgraded)
This upgraded Ellipse Price Action Indicator (EPAI v2) to take high-accuracy trades.
I am explaining it as if you are looking at the chart step by step, so you will understand exactly:
-When to buy
-When to
-When to avoid
-How to read Strength Meter
-How Ellipse zones work
⭐ 1. THE BASICS — What This Indicator Actually Does
This indicator tracks:
✔ The “Elliptical Path” of price
Like a planet revolving around the Sun, price “oscillates” around a center.
The indicator detects this hidden mathematical path using:
Two Focus Points (Fast MA & Slow MA)
Curved Ellipse boundaries
Compression of price
Momentum of trend
Breakout zones
⭐ 2. UNDERSTANDING THE 3 ZONES
🔴 UPPER ZONE = Sell Zone
Price is near the upper ellipse boundary → overbought space.
🟢 LOWER ZONE = Buy Zone
Price near lower ellipse boundary → oversold space.
🔵 CENTRAL ZONE = No Trade Zone
Price swinging inside the ellipse center → noise.
Only trade in UPPER or LOWER zones.
Never in the central zone.
⭐ 3. THE MOST IMPORTANT PART — Strength Meter v2
Strength Meter v2 (0 to 100%) is the core filter.
✔ Above 70% → High winning probability (take trade)
✔ 60–70% → Medium probability (trade if confident)
❌ Below 60% → Avoid trade
Strength combines:
Ellipse compression
Momentum slope
Price position curve
Eccentricity
Trend direction
This alone removes 70% bad trades.
⭐ 4. BUY SETUP (Exact Rules)
You get a BUY only if all conditions match:
① Price goes to lower ellipse zone
② Compression is ON (ellipse is tight)
③ Momentum slope direction = UP
④ Focus Lines Cross Bullish (Fast > Slow)
⑤ Strength v2 ≥ your threshold (default 60%)
⑥ A BUY signal prints (triangle UP)
When these align →
🟢 BUY with high accuracy
Best Accuracy Buy is:
Price in lower zone
Strength ≥ 0.75
Slope UP
Ellipse compressed
⭐ 5. SELL SETUP (Exact Rules)
Same logic reversed:
① Price in upper ellipse zone
② Compression ON
③ Momentum slope DOWN
④ Focus Lines cross bearish (Fast < Slow)
⑤ Strength v2 ≥ threshold
⑥ SELL signal prints (triangle DOWN)
This means:
🔴 SELL with high accuracy
Best Accuracy Sell is:
Price in upper zone
Strength ≥ 0.75
Slope DOWN
Ellipse compressed
⭐ 6. BREAKOUT TRADES (Optional but powerful)
When price breaks above/below ellipse:
🔸 Upper Breakout → SELL (if strength strong)
🔸 Lower Breakout → BUY (if strength strong)
Breakout signals are marked by orange arrows.
Breakouts are taken only if:
Strength v2 > 50%
Slope supports breakout
Compression exists before breakout
Breakout trades catch trend continuation.
⭐ 7. HOW TO CONFIRM A STRONG TRADE
Look at the table on the chart:
✔ Strength v2 ≥ 70% (GREEN)
✔ Compression = GREEN
✔ Slope direction = UP (for buy) or DOWN (for sell)
✔ Zone = LOWER or UPPER
✔ Eccentricity = LOW (<0.5 means smooth trend)
If these line up →
⭐ High-probability entry.
⭐ 8. WHEN YOU SHOULD NOT TRADE
❌ If price is in Central Zone
❌ Strength < 60
❌ No compression detected
❌ Slope is flat or against direction
❌ Only one condition is matching
❌ Eccentricity is too large
(Big ellipse = unpredictable swings)
⭐ 9. What Is the Accuracy Level?
In trending markets → 75% to 85% accuracy
In ranging markets → 50% (use compression filter to avoid)
The indicator is designed to avoid bad market conditions automatically.
⭐ 10. BEST TIMEFRAMES
✔ 5m, 15m, 1H → Intraday
✔ 4H, 1D → Swing Trading
✔ NOT recommended below 1m timeframe
⭐ SUMMARY (EASY VERSION)
🟢 BUY:
Lower zone + compression + bullish slope + strong focus cross + strength ≥ 60
🔴 SELL:
Upper zone + compression + bearish slope + strong focus cross + strength ≥ 60
🟠 Breakout:
Upper/lower breakout + strength ≥ 50
🔵 Avoid:
Central zone or weak strength
SRD
SRD v11 - Multi-Timeframe Volume Profile (POC, VAH, VAL)
Key Features
Dual Timeframe Analysis:
📈 Main Analysis (Daily): Calculates and displays the most significant levels based on a user-defined period of daily bars. This is ideal for identifying intraday and short-term trading opportunities.
📊 Strategic Analysis (Weekly): Plots key levels from a weekly perspective, giving you a broader, long-term view of market sentiment and structure. This can be toggled on or off.
Volume Profile Core Levels: The indicator automatically calculates and visualizes the three most important levels derived from volume analysis for both timeframes:
🎯 POC (Point of Control): The price level with the highest traded volume for the specified period. It acts as a powerful magnet for price and a key reference for market equilibrium.
🔴 VAH (Value Area High): The highest price level within the "Value Area" (where ~70% of the volume was traded). It often acts as a significant resistance zone.
🟢 VAL (Value Area Low): The lowest price level within the Value Area. It often serves as a strong support zone.
🟠 24-Hour High: An optional feature that plots the highest price reached in the last 24 hours, providing a crucial reference point for breakout and reversal traders.
Dynamic and Non-Repainting: The levels are calculated based on historical confirmed bars and update automatically as new periods (daily or weekly) close. The lines extend to the right, remaining relevant until a new calculation period begins.
Integrated Alert System: Never miss a key price interaction. The indicator includes a comprehensive alert system for:
Breakouts: Triggers when the price crosses above or below the POC, VAH, or VAL.
Touches: Triggers when the price touches one of these key levels without breaking through it (within a small tolerance).
Unified Alert: A single alert that notifies you of any of the above conditions.
Customization
The SRD v11 is fully customizable to fit your trading style. You can adjust:
Timeframes: Change the base timeframes for both the main (default Daily) and strategic (default Weekly) analysis.
Analysis Periods: Define the number of bars (days or weeks) to include in the Volume Profile calculation.
Visuals: Customize the color, width, and style (solid, dashed, dotted) of every line and label for clear and intuitive visualization.
Toggle Elements: Easily show or hide the strategic (weekly) analysis and the 24-hour high line.
How to Use It >
Identify Key Zones: Use the VAH (resistance) and VAL (support) lines to identify potential entry and exit zones. The area between VAH and VAL is the "Value Area," where the market has found acceptance.
Monitor the POC: The Point of Control is the ultimate level of equilibrium. Watch for price reactions around the POC. A sustained break above or below can signal a new trend.
Combine Timeframes: Use the strategic (weekly) levels as major, long-term points of interest and the main (daily) levels for your day-to-day trading setup. Confluence between levels from different timeframes can indicate extremely strong support or resistance.
Set Alerts: Configure alerts for breakouts or touches to be notified of critical market movements in real-time, even when you are away from the charts.
Velocity Pressure Index | AlphaNattVelocity Pressure Index (VPI) | AlphaNatt
A sophisticated momentum oscillator that combines price velocity analysis with volume pressure dynamics to identify high-probability trading opportunities.
📊 KEY FEATURES
Dual Analysis System: Merges price velocity measurement with volume pressure analysis for comprehensive market momentum assessment
Dynamic Normalization: Automatically scales values between -100 and +100 for consistent readings across all market conditions
Adaptive Zones: Self-adjusting overbought/oversold levels based on recent price history
Multi-Layer Confirmation: Combines momentum, acceleration, and crossover signals for robust trade identification
Volume-Weighted Pressure: Differentiates between bullish and bearish volume to gauge true market sentiment
📈 HOW IT WORKS
The VPI calculates price velocity using linear regression of price changes, then weights this velocity by the difference between bullish and bearish volume pressure. This creates a momentum reading that accounts for both price movement speed and the volume conviction behind it.
Signal Generation:
Price velocity is measured over the specified period
Volume is separated into bullish (close > open) and bearish (close < open) pressure
Velocity is amplified or dampened based on volume pressure differential
The resulting index is normalized to oscillate between -100 and +100
A signal line smooths the oscillator for crossover detection
🎯 TRADING SIGNALS
Long Signals (Cyan #00F1FF):
Strong Bull: VPI > Signal with positive momentum and acceleration
Crossover Bull: VPI crosses above signal while above oversold zone
Divergence: Price makes lower low while VPI makes higher low
Short Signals (Magenta #FF019A):
Strong Bear: VPI < Signal with negative momentum and deceleration
Crossover Bear: VPI crosses below signal while below overbought zone
Divergence: Price makes higher high while VPI makes lower high
⚙️ CUSTOMIZABLE PARAMETERS
Velocity Settings:
Velocity Period (14): Lookback for price velocity calculation
Pressure Period (21): Volume analysis window
Smoothing Factor (3): Final oscillator smoothing
Signal Configuration:
Signal Type: Choose between SMA, EMA, or DEMA
Signal Length (9): Signal line smoothing period
Normalization Period (50): Range calculation window
Dynamic Zones:

Percentiles: 80th/20th percentiles for dynamic zones
📐 VISUAL COMPONENTS
Main Oscillator: Color-coded line showing current momentum state
Signal Line: White line for crossover detection
Momentum Histogram: Shows velocity differential at 50% scale
Dynamic Zones: Self-adjusting overbought/oversold bands
Extreme Levels: ±50 dotted lines marking extreme conditions
Background Shading: Subtle highlighting of overbought/oversold regions
💡 USAGE TIPS
Trend Trading: Use strong bull/bear signals in trending markets for continuation entries
Range Trading: Focus on crossovers near extreme zones for reversal trades
Divergence Trading: Watch for price/oscillator divergences at market extremes
Multi-Timeframe: Combine with higher timeframe VPI for directional bias
Volume Confirmation: Stronger signals occur with aligned volume pressure
⚠️ BEST PRACTICES
The VPI works best in liquid markets with reliable volume data. For optimal results, combine with price action analysis and use appropriate risk management. The indicator is most effective during trending conditions but can identify reversals when divergences occur at extremes.

Enhanced Std Dev Oscillator (Z-Score)Enhanced Std Dev Oscillator (Z-Score)
Overview
The Enhanced Std Dev Oscillator (ESDO) is a refined Z-Score indicator that normalizes price deviations from a moving mean using standard deviation, smoothed for clarity and equipped with divergence detection. This oscillator shines in identifying extreme overbought/oversold conditions and potential reversals, making it ideal for mean-reversion strategies in stocks, forex, or crypto. By highlighting when prices stray too far from the norm, it helps traders avoid chasing trends and focus on high-probability pullbacks.
Key Features
Customisable Mean & Deviation: Choose SMA or EMA for the mean (default: SMA, length 14); opt for Population or Sample standard deviation for precise statistical accuracy.
Smoothing for Clarity: Apply a simple moving average (default: 3) to the raw Z-Score, reducing noise without lagging signals excessively.
Zone Highlighting: Background colours flag extreme zones—red tint above +2 (overbought), green below -2 (oversold)—for quick visual scans.
Divergence Alerts: Automatically detects bullish (price lows lower, Z-Score higher) and bearish (price highs higher, Z-Score lower) divergences using pivot points (default length: 5), with labeled shapes for easy spotting.
Built-in Alerts: Notifications for Z-Score crossovers into OB/OS zones and divergence events to keep you informed without constant monitoring.
How It Works
Core Calculation: Computes the mean (SMA/EMA) over the specified length, then standard deviation (Population or adjusted Sample formula for N>1). Z-Score = (Source - Mean) / Std Dev, handling edge cases like zero deviation.
Smoothing: Averages the Z-Score with an SMA to create a cleaner plot oscillating around zero.
Levels & Zones: Plots horizontal lines at ±1 (orange dotted) and ±2 (red dashed) for reference; backgrounds activate in extreme zones.
Divergence Logic: Scans for pivot highs/lows in price and Z-Score; flags divergences when price extremes diverge from oscillator extremes (looking back 2 pivots for confirmation).
Visualisation: Blue line for the smoothed Z-Score; green/red labels for bull/bear divergences.
Usage Tips
Buy Signal: Z-Score crosses below -2 (oversold) or bullish divergence forms—pair with volume spike for confirmation.
Sell Signal: Z-Score crosses above +2 (overbought) or bearish divergence—watch for resistance alignment.
Customisation: Use EMA mean for trendier assets; enable Sample std dev for smaller datasets. Increase pivot length (7-10) in volatile markets to filter false signals.
Timeframes: Excels on daily/4H for swing trades; test smoothing on lower frames to avoid over-smoothing. Always combine with trend filters like a 200-period MA.

Consolidation Box1. Overview & Purpose
The "Faithful Box" is a powerful TradingView indicator designed to automatically identify and visualize high-quality price consolidation zones, often known as 'trading ranges' or 'boxes'.
This tool is a direct Pine Script translation of a specific, robust Python-based analysis strategy. Its primary goal is not just to find any sideways movement, but to qualify it based on a strict set of rules, ensuring that only meaningful and tradable consolidation patterns are highlighted on the chart.
2. Core Logic: How It Works
The indicator's intelligence is based on several key rules translated from the original Python script:
Box Definition (Based on Closing Prices): The most crucial rule is how the box is defined. Unlike many tools that use candle wicks (highs and lows), this indicator establishes the Ceiling (Resistance) and the Floor (Support) of the box using the highest Close price and the lowest Close price over the specified analysis period. This provides a more stable and representative view of the true consolidation zone, ignoring outlier price spikes.
Quality Filters: A consolidation is only considered valid and drawn on the chart if it meets two strict criteria:
Minimum Touches: The price must "test" the ceiling and floor a minimum number of times. A "touch" is counted with a tolerance — the High of a candle only needs to get close to the ceiling, and the Low close to the floor. This simulates how price interacts with support and resistance zones in the real world.
Maximum Height: The consolidation range cannot be excessively wide or volatile. The box will only be drawn if its total height, as a percentage of its price, is below a user-defined limit.
3. Visual Features on the Chart
When a valid consolidation pattern is detected, the indicator draws a semi-transparent box over the analysis period. The most powerful visual feature is its dynamic coloring, which functions as a built-in alert system:
🟥 Red Box: The box turns red when the price enters the upper "Action Zone" (e.g., the top 30% of the range). This visually signals that the price is near a key resistance level, alerting the trader to a potential reversal or breakout opportunity.
🟩 Green Box: The box turns green when the price enters the lower "Action Zone" (e.g., the bottom 30% of the range). This highlights that the price is testing a key support level.
⬜ Gray Box: The box remains a neutral gray when the price is trading in the middle of the range, which can often be considered a "no-trade" or "wait-and-see" zone.
4. Configuration (Indicator Inputs)
You have full control over the indicator's sensitivity through its inputs:
Analysis Period (days): Defines the lookback window (in trading days) to search for a consolidation pattern. Common values are 42 (approx. 2 months) or 63 (approx. 3 months).
Maximum Box Height (%): Filters out consolidations that are too volatile or wide. A lower percentage will find tighter, more compressed consolidations.
Minimum Ceiling/Floor Touches: Defines the "strength" of the support and resistance levels. Requiring more touches will result in fewer detected patterns, but likely of higher quality.
Touch Tolerance (%): Defines how close the High/Low needs to get to the edge of the box to be counted as a touch. A value of 2% means a touch is registered if the price comes within 2% of the box's total height from the edge.
Action Zone (%): Customizes the size of the red (resistance) and green (support) zones. A value of 30% means the top 30% of the box will be the red zone, and the bottom 30% will be the green zone.
Hann Window FIR Filter Ribbon [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Hann Window FIR Filter Ribbon is a trend-following visualization tool based on a family of FIR filters using the Hann window function. It plots a smooth and dynamic ribbon formed by six Hann filters of progressively increasing length. Gradient coloring and filled bands reveal trend direction and compression/expansion behavior. When short-term trend shifts occur (via filter crossover), it automatically anchors visual support/resistance zones at the nearest swing highs or lows.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Hann FIR Filter: A finite impulse response filter that uses a Hann (cosine-based) window for weighting past price values, resulting in a non-lag, ultra-smooth output.
hannFilter(length)=>
var float hann = na // Final filter output
float filt = 0
float coef = 0
for i = 1 to length
weight = 1 - math.cos(2 * math.pi * i / (length + 1))
filt += price * weight
coef += weight
hann := coef != 0 ? filt / coef : na
Ribbon Stack: The indicator plots 6 Hann FIR filters with increasing lengths, creating a smooth "ribbon" that adapts to price shifts and visually encodes volatility.
Gradient Coloring: Line colors and fill opacity between layers are dynamically adjusted based on the distance between the filters, showing momentum expansion or contraction.
Dynamic Swing Zones: When the shortest filter crosses its nearest neighbor, a swing high/low is located, and a triangle-style level is anchored and projected to the right.
Self-Extending Levels: These dynamic levels persist and extend until invalidated or replaced by a new opposite trend break.
🔵 FEATURES
Plots 6 Hann FIR filters with increasing lengths (controlled by Ribbon Size input).
Automatically colors each filter and the fill between them with smooth gradient transitions.
Detects trend shifts via filter crossover and anchors visual resistance (red) or support (green) zones.
Support/resistance zones are triangle-style bands built around recent swing highs/lows.
Levels auto-extend right and adapt in real time until invalidated by price action.
Ribbon responds smoothly to price and shows contraction or expansion behavior clearly.
No lag in crossover detection thanks to FIR architecture.
Adjustable sensitivity via Length and Ribbon Size inputs.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use the ribbon gradient as a visual trend strength and smooth direction cue.
Watch for crossover of shortest filters as early trend change signals.
Monitor support/resistance zones as potential high-probability reaction points.
Combine with other tools like momentum or volume to confirm trend breaks.
Adjust ribbon thickness and length to suit your trading timeframe and volatility preference.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Hann Window FIR Filter Ribbon blends digital signal processing with trading logic to deliver a visually refined, non-lagging trend tool. The adaptive ribbon offers insight into momentum compression and release, while swing-based levels give structure to potential reversals. Ideal for traders who seek smooth trend detection with intelligent, auto-adaptive zone plotting.
