Kalman VWAP Filter [BackQuant]Kalman VWAP Filter
A precision-engineered price estimator that fuses Kalman filtering with the Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) to create a smooth, adaptive representation of fair value. This hybrid model intelligently balances responsiveness and stability, tracking trend shifts with minimal noise while maintaining a statistically grounded link to volume distribution.
If you would like to see my original Kalman Filter, please find it here:
Concept overview
The Kalman VWAP Filter is built on two core ideas from quantitative finance and control theory:
Kalman filtering — a recursive Bayesian estimator used to infer the true underlying state of a noisy system (in this case, fair price).
VWAP anchoring — a dynamic reference that weights price by traded volume, representing where the majority of transactions have occurred.
By merging these concepts, the filter produces a line that behaves like a "smart moving average": smooth when noise is high, fast when markets trend, and self-adjusting based on both market structure and user-defined noise parameters.
How it works
Measurement blend : Combines the chosen Price Source (e.g., close or hlc3) with either a Session VWAP or a Rolling VWAP baseline. The VWAP Weight input controls how much the filter trusts traded volume versus price movement.
Kalman recursion : Each bar updates an internal "state estimate" using the Kalman gain, which determines how much to trust new observations vs. the prior state.
Noise parameters :
Process Noise controls agility — higher values make the filter more responsive but also more volatile.
Measurement Noise controls smoothness — higher values make it steadier but slower to adapt.
Filter order (N) : Defines how many parallel state estimates are used. Larger orders yield smoother output by layering multiple one-dimensional Kalman passes.
Final output : A refined price trajectory that captures VWAP-adjusted fair value while dynamically adjusting to real-time volatility and order flow.
Why this matters
Most smoothing techniques (EMA, SMA, Hull) trade off lag for smoothness. Kalman filtering, however, adaptively rebalances that tradeoff each bar using probabilistic weighting, allowing it to follow market state changes more efficiently. Anchoring it to VWAP integrates microstructure context — capturing where liquidity truly lies rather than only where price moves.
Use cases
Trend tracking : Color-coded candle painting highlights shifts in slope direction, revealing early trend transitions.
Fair value mapping : The line represents a continuously updated equilibrium price between raw price action and VWAP flow.
Adaptive moving average replacement : Outperforms static MAs in variable volatility regimes by self-adjusting smoothness.
Execution & reversion logic : When price diverges from the Kalman VWAP, it may indicate short-term imbalance or overextension relative to volume-adjusted fair value.
Cross-signal framework : Use with standard VWAP or other filters to identify convergence or divergence between liquidity-weighted and state-estimated prices.
Parameter guidance
Process Noise : 0.01–0.05 for swing traders, 0.1–0.2 for intraday scalping.
Measurement Noise : 2–5 for normal use, 8+ for very smooth tracking.
VWAP Weight : 0.2–0.4 balances both price and VWAP influence; 1.0 locks output directly to VWAP dynamics.
Filter Order (N) : 3–5 for reactive short-term filters; 8–10 for smoother institutional-style baselines.
Interpretation
When price > Kalman VWAP and slope is positive → bullish pressure; buyers dominate above fair value.
When price < Kalman VWAP and slope is negative → bearish pressure; sellers dominate below fair value.
Convergence of price and Kalman VWAP often signals equilibrium; strong divergence suggests imbalance.
Crosses between Kalman VWAP and the base VWAP can hint at shifts in short-term vs. long-term liquidity control.
Summary
The Kalman VWAP Filter blends statistical estimation with market microstructure awareness, offering a refined alternative to static smoothing indicators. It adapts in real time to volatility and order flow, helping traders visualize balance, transition, and momentum through a lens of probabilistic fair value rather than simple price averaging.
Volumeanalysis
Execution Volume Index – ThorenFX | Trinity TradersExecution Volume Index (EVI) – ThorenFX | Trinity Traders
The Execution Volume Index (EVI) by ThorenFX Labs measures real market execution activity — revealing how many buy and sell orders are actually being executed, not just how price moves.
It helps traders identify true participation, showing when the market is quiet and when real money (smart money) is active.
🔍 Core Logic:
When gray bars appear → the market is quiet or accumulating, showing low public interest.
When colored histograms appear → real execution volume is active (either buy or sell aggression).
The indicator uses dual QQE-based logic and volume compression to detect market participation strength.
🎨 Color Interpretation:
Color Meaning Signal Type
🔵 #00c3ff Strong Buy Execution – institutional or high-volume buy aggression Strong Buy
🟢 #81c784 Mild/Aggressive Buy – moderate or early buy participation Moderate Buy
🔴 #ff0062 Strong Sell Execution – institutional or heavy sell orders Strong Sell
🟠 #ffb74d Mild/Aggressive Sell – moderate or early sell participation Moderate Sell
⚪ #707070 Quiet Market Zone – low public participation / accumulation Neutral
💡 Trading Idea:
Best setups often form when the market shows low participation (gray zone) — where the crowd is quiet and volatility is low.
Entry during quiet periods allows you to position before strong execution activity (colored bursts) confirms the trend.
⚙️ Indicator Type:
Volume & Execution Activity Visualizer
Based on Dual QQE Logic + Bollinger Compression

Volume Order Block Scanner [BOSWaves]Volume Order Block Scanner - Dynamic Detection of High-Volume Supply and Demand Zones
Overview
The Volume Order Block Scanner introduces a refined approach to institutional zone mapping, combining volume-weighted order flow, structural displacement, and ATR-based proportionality to identify regions of aggressive participation from large entities.
Unlike static zone mapping or simplistic body-size filters, this framework dynamically evaluates each candle through a multi-layer model of relative volume, candle structure, and volatility context to isolate genuine order block formations while filtering out market noise.
Each identified zone represents a potential institutional footprint, defined by significant volume surges and efficient body-to-ATR relationships that indicate purposeful positioning. Once mapped, each order block is dynamically adjusted for volatility and tracked throughout its lifecycle - from creation to mitigation to potential invalidation - producing an evolving liquidity map that adapts with price.
This adaptive behavior allows traders to visualize where liquidity was absorbed and where it remains unfilled, revealing the structural foundation of institutional intent across timeframes.
Theoretical Foundation
At its core, the Volume Order Block Scanner is built on the interaction between volume displacement and structural imbalance. Traditional order block systems often rely on fixed candle formations or simple engulfing logic, neglecting the fundamental driver of institutional activity: volume concentration relative to volatility.
This framework redefines that approach. Each candle is filtered through two comparative ratios:
Relative Volume Ratio (RVR) - the candle’s volume compared to its rolling average, confirming genuine transactional surges.
Body-ATR Ratio (BAR) - a measure of displacement efficiency relative to recent volatility, ensuring structural strength.
Only when both conditions align is an order block validated, marking a displacement event significant enough to create a lasting imbalance.
By embedding this logic within a volatility-adjusted environment, the system maintains scalability across asset classes and volatility regimes - equally effective in crypto, forex, or index markets.
How It Works
The Volume Order Block Scanner operates through a structured multi-stage process:
Displacement Detection - Identifies candles whose body and volume exceed dynamic thresholds derived from ATR and rolling volume averages. These represent the origin points of institutional aggression.
Zone Construction - Each qualified candle generates an order block with ATR-proportional dimensions to ensure consistency across instruments and timeframes. The zone includes two regions: Body Zone (the precise initiation point of displacement) and Wick Imbalance (the residual inefficiency representing unfilled liquidity).
Lifecycle Tracking - Each zone is continuously monitored for market interaction. Reactions within a defined window are classified as respected, mitigated, or invalidated, giving traders a data-driven sense of ongoing institutional relevance.
Volume Confirmation Layer - Reinforces signal integrity by ensuring that all detected blocks correspond with meaningful increases in transactional activity.
Temporal Decay Control - Zones that remain untested beyond a set period gradually lose visual and analytical weight, maintaining chart clarity and contextual precision.
Interpretation
The Volume Order Block Scanner visualizes how institutional participants interact with the market through zones of accumulation and distribution.
Bullish order blocks denote demand imbalances where price displaced upward under high volume; bearish order blocks signify supply regions formed by concentrated selling pressure.
Price revisiting these areas often reflects institutional re-entry or liquidity rebalancing, offering actionable insights for both continuation and reversal scenarios.
By continuously monitoring interaction and expiry, the framework enables traders to distinguish between active institutional footprints and historical liquidity artifacts.
Strategy Integration
The Volume Order Block Scanner integrates naturally into advanced structural and order-flow methodologies:
Liquidity Mapping : Identify high-volume regions that are likely to influence future price reactions.
Break-of-Structure Confirmation : Validate BOS and CHOCH signals through aligned order block behavior.
Volume Confluence : Combine with BOSWaves volume or momentum indicators to confirm real institutional intent.
Smart-Money Frameworks : Utilize order block retests as precision entry zones within SMC-based setups.
Trend Continuation : Filter zones in line with higher-timeframe bias to maintain directional integrity.
Technical Implementation Details
Core Engine : Dual-filter mechanism using Relative Volume Ratio (RVR) and Body-ATR Ratio (BAR).
Volatility Framework : ATR-based scaling for cross-asset proportionality.
Zone Composition : Body and wick regions plotted independently for visual clarity of imbalance.
Lifecycle Logic : Real-time monitoring of reaction, mitigation, and invalidation states.
Directional Coloring : Distinct bullish and bearish shading with adjustable transparency.
Computation Efficiency : Lightweight structure suitable for multi-timeframe or multi-asset environments.
Optimal Application Parameters
Timeframe Guidance:
5m - 15m : Reactive intraday zones for short-term liquidity engagement.
1H - 4H : Medium-term structures for swing or intraday trend mapping.
Daily - Weekly : Macro accumulation and distribution footprints.
Suggested Configuration:
Relative Volume Threshold : 1.5× - 2.0× average volume.
Body-ATR Threshold : 0.8× - 1.2× for valid displacement.
Zone Expiry : 5 - 10 bars for intraday use, 15 - 30 for swing/macro contexts.
Parameter optimization should be asset-specific, tuned to volatility conditions and liquidity depth.
Performance Characteristics
High Effectiveness:
Markets exhibiting clear displacement and directional flow.
Environments with consistent volume expansion and liquidity inefficiencies.
Reduced Effectiveness:
Range-bound markets with frequent false impulses.
Low-volume sessions lacking institutional participation.
Integration Guidelines
Confluence Framework : Pair with structure-based BOS or liquidity tools for validation.
Risk Management : Treat active order blocks as contextual areas of interest, not guaranteed reversal points.
Multi-Timeframe Logic : Derive bias from higher-timeframe blocks and execute from refined lower-timeframe structures.
Volume Verification : Confirm each reaction with concurrent volume acceleration to avoid false liquidity cues.
Disclaimer
The Volume Order Block Scanner is a quantitative mapping framework designed for professional traders and analysts. It is not a predictive or guaranteed system of profit.
Performance depends on correct configuration, market conditions, and disciplined risk management. BOSWaves recommends using this indicator as part of a comprehensive analytical process - integrating structural, volume, and liquidity context for accurate interpretation.
VolumeAnlaysis### Volume Analysis (VA) Indicator
**Overview**
The Volume Analysis (VA) indicator is a dynamic overlay tool designed for traders seeking to identify high-volume breakouts, retests, and multi-timeframe volume-driven price cycles. By combining volume spikes with price action and support/resistance boxes, it highlights potential trend continuations, reversals, and cycle shifts. Ideal for intraday and swing trading on stocks, forex, or crypto, it uses a Fibonacci-inspired 1.618 multiplier to detect significant volume surges, then maps them to visual boxes and key levels for actionable insights.
This indicator draws from volume profile concepts but focuses on **breakout confirmation** and **cycle momentum**, helping you spot when "smart money" volume aligns with price extremes. It's particularly useful in volatile markets where volume precedes price moves.
**How It Works**
1. **Volume Break Detection**:
- Identifies a "Volume Break" when the current bar's volume exceeds 1.618x the highest volume from the prior 5 bars. This signals unusual activity, often preceding breakouts.
- A "Volume Retest" triggers exactly 3 bars after a break if volume has been falling steadily over those 3 bars—indicating a pullback for re-accumulation/distribution.
2. **Visual Annotations**:
- **Labels**: Green/red/yellow labels mark Volume Breaks and Retests, positioned above/below the bar based on candle direction for clarity.
- **Demand/Supply Boxes**:
- Blue semi-transparent boxes form around Retest bars, extending rightward to act as dynamic support/resistance.
- Green (bullish) or red (bearish) boxes draw from Volume Breaks, based on the original candle's open/close, highlighting potential zones for continuation.
- Limited to 5 boxes max to avoid chart clutter; older boxes fade as new ones form.
3. **Box Interaction Signals**:
- When price enters a box:
- **Reversal Hints**: Maroon (bearish rejection) or lime (bullish rejection) labels on closes against the trend with opening price momentum.
- **Breakout Arrows**: Up/down arrows on crossovers/crossunders of box tops/bottoms from Retest boxes.
- Scans all active boxes for interactions, prioritizing recent volume events.
4. **Multi-Timeframe Volume Cycles**:
- Aggregates the "Volume Break Max" level (a proxy for key price extremes tied to volume spikes) across timeframes: 1min, 5min, 10min, 30min, and 65min (using `request.security`).
- Computes **MaxVolBreak** (highest extreme) and **MinVolBreak** (lowest extreme) for trend-following levels.
- Tracks **Percent Volume Greater/Less Than Close**: Sums volumes from TFs where price is below/above these levels, creating a momentum ratio.
- **CrossClose**: Plots the prior close where this ratio crosses (gray line), signaling cycle shifts—bullish below MinVolBreak, bearish above MaxVolBreak.
- **Fills**: Red fill above CrossClose/MaxVolBreak (bearish cycle); green below CrossClose/MinVolBreak (bullish cycle).
5. **Plots**:
- Black lines for MaxVolBreak (⏫) and MinVolBreak (⏬).
- Gray 🔄 for CrossClose.
- Colors dynamically adjust (green/red) based on close relative to levels.
**Key Features**
- **Trend vs. Reversal Modes**: Toggle alerts for trend-following breaks (crosses of Max/MinVolBreak) or reversal signals (crosses of CrossClose).
- **Multi-TF Fusion**: Optionally include the chart's native timeframe in Max/Min calculations for finer tuning.
- **Box Management**: Auto-prunes to 5 boxes; focuses on retest/break alignments for "inside bar" logic.
- **Momentum Filters**: Uses rising/falling opens and crossovers for label precision, reducing noise.
- **Customizable**: Simple inputs for alert visibility and timeframe inclusion.
**Settings**
| Input | Default | Description |
|-------|---------|-------------|
| Show Volume Reversal Breaks | False | Enables alerts/labels for CrossClose crosses (cycle reversals). |
| Show Trend Following Breaks | True | Enables alerts for Max/MinVolBreak crosses (trend signals). |
| Use Current Time | False | Includes chart's native TF in multi-TF Max/Min calculations. |
**Alerts**
- **Reversal Alerts** (if enabled): "Volume Reverse Bullish/Bearish Break of " on close crosses of CrossClose.
- **Trend Alerts** (if enabled): "Trend Volume Bullish/Bearish Signal" on close crosses of Max/MinVolBreak; plus notes if prior low/high aligns with levels.
- All alerts include ticker and level value for easy scanning. Use `alert.freq_once_per_bar` to avoid spam.
**Trading Ideas**
- **Bullish Entry**: Green box formation + price holding MinVolBreak + upward arrow on retest box. Target next resistance.
- **Bearish Entry**: Red box + close above MaxVolBreak + red fill activation. Stop below recent low.
- **Cycle Trading**: Watch CrossClose crosses for regime shifts—fade extremes in overextended cycles.
- **Best Timeframes**: 5-30min for intraday; combine with daily for swings. Works best on liquid assets with reliable volume data.
**Limitations & Notes**
- Relies on accurate volume data (e.g., stocks/forex); less effective on low-volume or synthetic instruments.
- Boxes extend rightward but don't auto-delete—monitor for clutter on long histories (max_bars_back=500).
- Some logic (e.g., exact 3-bar retest) is rigid; backtest for your market.
- Open-source under MPL 2.0—fork and tweak as needed!

Volume Heatmap + Buy/Sell splitits the most powerful volume based heatmap you can see on this platform. It tells you when the high volume is coming into the market with clear signs.
Sell - You will see the red bar below the split to confirm its a sell and the strength or the sell you can see above the split line in various colors e.g. lite green (low) to Dark red (extra high).
Buy - If there is a Buying trade being registered, it will appear above the spit line in opaque green with the heatmap colors to show the strength of volume.
This tool will help you identify the volume strength and based on that you can plan your trade.
PS, its always recommended to not to rely on a single oscillator and combine few. I would recommend you to use RSI and S/R lines with this for better decision.
Note, this tool has been put together for educational purposes and I do not take any responsibility of your trade.
Huge VolumesHuge Volumes indicator plots areas on the chart where trading volume spikes — showing where strong buying or selling pressure takes place.
It helps visualize how large players move in and out of positions, making it easier to spot potential turning points or confirm trends.
Advanced Weis Wave Volume [Afnan]Advanced Weis Wave Volume is an enhanced upgrade of the classic Weis Wave concept. It measures accumulated volume within price swings to show where buying and selling pressure truly shift — but with one major edge: optional consolidation detection.
Most wave volume indicators simply plot bullish and bearish waves. Advanced Weis Wave Volume goes further by giving you the choice to highlight sideways or low-momentum consolidation phases, making it easy to spot when the market lacks real momentum. This helps traders instantly filter out weak, low-probability setups and focus only on the high-energy waves that truly matter.
⚙️ Key Features
Weis Wave Method – Uses ATR-based wave calculation to identify directional volume accumulation with precision.
Optional Consolidation Highlighting – You control it. Enable or disable consolidation detection based on your trading style. When enabled, it visually marks low-momentum or range-bound conditions, helping you instantly recognize when the market is consolidating.
Smart Volume Alignment – Choose to include or exclude the reversal candle's volume in new waves for more accurate readings.
Clear Visuals – Color-coded waves for Bullish (Green), Bearish (Red), and optional Consolidation (Orange) phases.
Compact Status Table – Displays the current market condition (Bullish, Bearish, or Consolidation) directly on your chart.
Flexible Display Options – Plot all waves above zero line, customize colors, and control what information you see.
💡 Why This Indicator Is Superior
✅ vs. Other Wave Volume Indicators:
Others only show waves; they can't identify consolidation. Advanced Weis Wave Volume gives you the option to enable consolidation detection — saving you time by automatically filtering weak market phases when you need it.
✅ vs. Standard Volume Bars:
Regular volume bars show isolated candle data. Advanced Weis Wave Volume shows accumulated directional pressure, revealing true trend strength and institutional activity.
✅ vs. Basic Weis Wave Indicators:
Standard Weis Wave indicators lack consolidation awareness. This indicator adds that layer of intelligence while keeping the classic wave calculation intact.
Bottom Line:
This is the only Weis Wave volume indicator that gives you control over consolidation filtering. Others show every move equally — Advanced Weis Wave Volume shows what actually matters, when you want it to.
📈 How to Use
Trading with the Waves:
🟢 Green Waves (Bullish): Building buying pressure — look for long setups.
🔴 Red Waves (Bearish): Rising selling pressure
🟠 Orange Zones (Consolidation): (When enabled) Market is ranging — avoid new trades .
Large waves: Strong trends and high-probability continuations.
Shrinking waves: Weakening momentum or possible reversal ahead.
Critical Insight - Avoiding False Volume Signals:
Large waves aren't always reliable. If you see a wave colored in orange (consolidation), it means the market was moving sideways but no real directional momentum.
This is crucial because:
❌ A big green wave in consolidation ≠ strong upside buying
❌ A big red wave in consolidation ≠ strong downside selling
✅ These are just range-bound volume accumulations that mislead traders
With consolidation detection enabled, you can instantly identify and ignore these deceptive Consolidation waves, focusing only on directional volume that actually reflects true buying or selling pressure. This prevents you from entering trades based on false volume signals during sideways markets.
📌 Practical Applications:
Breakout Confirmation: Real breakouts show expanding volume waves; false breakouts show weak waves or consolidation-marked volume.
Trend Validation: In a healthy trend, waves in the direction of the move are stronger, larger, and show clear directional color (green/red).
Consolidation Avoidance: (When enabled) Orange zones warn you to step aside and preserve capital — even if the wave looks large. Size doesn't matter if momentum is absent.
Filter False Volume: Avoid trading large waves that occur during consolidation — they don't represent genuine directional moves, just sideways accumulation.
Divergence Detection: Price makes new highs/lows, but wave volume shrinks — a sign of exhaustion or reversal.
Analyzing Ranges: During accumulation or distribution, Advanced Weis Wave Volume helps identify how institutional players are participating within the range — revealing when a breakout is likely to occur.
✨ The Competitive Advantage
Many Weis Wave indicators exist on TradingView - they all show volume waves. Only Advanced Weis Wave Volume gives you optional consolidation detection. That single feature transforms wave volume from a pure analysis tool into a flexible trading system that adapts to your style.

Historical Matrix Analyzer [PhenLabs]📊Historical Matrix Analyzer
Version: PineScriptv6
📌Description
The Historical Matrix Analyzer is an advanced probabilistic trading tool that transforms technical analysis into a data-driven decision support system. By creating a comprehensive 56-cell matrix that tracks every combination of RSI states and multi-indicator conditions, this indicator reveals which market patterns have historically led to profitable outcomes and which have not.
At its core, the indicator continuously monitors seven distinct RSI states (ranging from Extreme Oversold to Extreme Overbought) and eight unique indicator combinations (MACD direction, volume levels, and price momentum). For each of these 56 possible market states, the system calculates average forward returns, win rates, and occurrence counts based on your configurable lookback period. The result is a color-coded probability matrix that shows you exactly where you stand in the historical performance landscape.
The standout feature is the Current State Panel, which provides instant clarity on your active market conditions. This panel displays signal strength classifications (from Strong Bullish to Strong Bearish), the average return percentage for similar past occurrences, an estimated win rate using Bayesian smoothing to prevent small-sample distortions, and a confidence level indicator that warns you when insufficient data exists for reliable conclusions.

📖Usage Guidelines
RSI Period
Default: 14
Range: 1 to unlimited
Description: Controls the lookback period for RSI momentum calculation. Standard 14-period provides widely-recognized overbought/oversold levels. Decrease for faster, more sensitive RSI reactions suitable for scalping. Increase (21, 28) for smoother, longer-term momentum assessment in swing trading. Changes affect how quickly the indicator moves between the 7 RSI state classifications.
MACD Fast Length
Default: 12
Range: 1 to unlimited
Description: Sets the faster exponential moving average for MACD calculation. Standard 12-period setting works well for daily charts and captures short-term momentum shifts. Decreasing creates more responsive MACD crossovers but increases false signals. Increasing smooths out noise but delays signal generation, affecting the bullish/bearish indicator state classification.
MACD Slow Length
Default: 26
Range: 1 to unlimited
Description: Defines the slower exponential moving average for MACD calculation. Traditional 26-period setting balances trend identification with responsiveness. Must be greater than Fast Length. Wider spread between fast and slow increases MACD sensitivity to trend changes, impacting the frequency of indicator state transitions in the matrix.
MACD Signal Length
Default: 9
Range: 1 to unlimited
Description: Smoothing period for the MACD signal line that triggers bullish/bearish state changes. Standard 9-period provides reliable crossover signals. Shorter values create more frequent state changes and earlier signals but with more whipsaws. Longer values produce more confirmed, stable signals but with increased lag in detecting momentum shifts.
Volume MA Period
Default: 20
Range: 1 to unlimited
Description: Lookback period for volume moving average used to classify volume as “high” or “low” in indicator state combinations. 20-period default captures typical monthly trading patterns. Shorter periods (10-15) make volume classification more reactive to recent spikes. Longer periods (30-50) require more sustained volume changes to trigger state classification shifts.
Statistics Lookback Period
Default: 200
Range: 50 to 500
Description: Number of historical bars used to calculate matrix statistics. 200 bars provides substantial data for reliable patterns while remaining responsive to regime changes. Lower values (50-100) emphasize recent market behavior and adapt quickly but may produce volatile statistics. Higher values (300-500) capture long-term patterns with stable statistics but slower adaptation to changing market dynamics.
Forward Performance Bars
Default: 5
Range: 1 to 20
Description: Number of bars ahead used to calculate forward returns from each historical state occurrence. 5-bar default suits intraday to short-term swing trading (5 hours on hourly charts, 1 week on daily charts). Lower values (1-3) target short-term momentum trades. Higher values (10-20) align with position trading and longer-term pattern exploitation.
Color Intensity Sensitivity
Default: 2.0
Range: 0.5 to 5.0, step 0.5
Description: Amplifies or dampens the color intensity response to average return magnitudes in the matrix heat map. 2.0 default provides balanced visual emphasis. Lower values (0.5-1.0) create subtle coloring requiring larger returns for full saturation, useful for volatile instruments. Higher values (3.0-5.0) produce vivid colors from smaller returns, highlighting subtle edges in range-bound markets.
Minimum Occurrences for Coloring
Default: 3
Range: 1 to 10
Description: Required minimum sample size before applying color-coded performance to matrix cells. Cells with fewer occurrences display gray “insufficient data” warning. 3-occurrence default filters out rare patterns. Lower threshold (1-2) shows more data but includes unreliable single-event statistics. Higher thresholds (5-10) ensure only well-established patterns receive visual emphasis.
Table Position
Default: top_right
Options: top_left, top_right, bottom_left, bottom_right
Description: Screen location for the 56-cell statistics matrix table. Position to avoid overlapping critical price action or other indicators on your chart. Consider chart orientation and candlestick density when selecting optimal placement.
Show Current State Panel
Default: true
Options: true, false
Description: Toggle visibility of the dedicated current state information panel. When enabled, displays signal strength, RSI value, indicator status, average return, estimated win rate, and confidence level for active market conditions. Disable to declutter charts when only the matrix table is needed.
Info Panel Position
Default: bottom_left
Options: top_left, top_right, bottom_left, bottom_right
Description: Screen location for the current state information panel (when enabled). Position independently from statistics matrix to optimize chart real estate. Typically placed opposite the matrix table for balanced visual layout.
Win Rate Smoothing Strength
Default: 5
Range: 1 to 20
Description: Controls Bayesian prior weighting for estimated win rate calculations. Acts as virtual sample size assuming 50% win rate baseline. Default 5 provides moderate smoothing preventing extreme win rate estimates from small samples. Lower values (1-3) reduce smoothing effect, allowing win rates to reflect raw data more directly. Higher values (10-20) increase conservatism, pulling win rate estimates toward 50% until substantial evidence accumulates.
✅Best Use Cases
Pattern-based discretionary trading where you want historical confirmation before entering setups that “look good” based on current technical alignment
Swing trading with holding periods matching your forward performance bar setting, using high-confidence bullish cells as entry filters
Risk assessment and position sizing, allocating larger size to trades originating from cells with strong positive average returns and high estimated win rates
Market regime identification by observing which RSI states and indicator combinations are currently producing the most reliable historical patterns
Backtesting validation by comparing your manual strategy signals against the historical performance of the corresponding matrix cells
Educational tool for developing intuition about which technical condition combinations have actually worked versus those that feel right but lack historical evidence
⚠️Limitations
Historical patterns do not guarantee future performance, especially during unprecedented market events or regime changes not represented in the lookback period
Small sample sizes (low occurrence counts) produce unreliable statistics despite Bayesian smoothing, requiring caution when acting on low-confidence cells
Matrix statistics lag behind rapidly changing market conditions, as the lookback period must accumulate new state occurrences before updating performance data
Forward return calculations use fixed bar periods that may not align with actual trade exit timing, support/resistance levels, or volatility-adjusted profit targets
💡What Makes This Unique
Multi-Dimensional State Space: Unlike single-indicator tools, simultaneously tracks 56 distinct market condition combinations providing granular pattern resolution unavailable in traditional technical analysis
Bayesian Statistical Rigor: Implements proper probabilistic smoothing to prevent overconfidence from limited data, a critical feature missing from most pattern recognition tools
Real-Time Contextual Feedback: The “NOW” marker and dedicated info panel instantly connect current market conditions to their historical performance profile, eliminating guesswork
Transparent Occurrence Counts: Displays sample sizes directly in each cell, allowing traders to judge statistical reliability themselves rather than hiding data quality issues
Fully Customizable Analysis Window: Complete control over lookback depth and forward return horizons lets traders align the tool precisely with their trading timeframe and strategy requirements
🔬How It Works
1. State Classification and Encoding
Each bar’s RSI value is evaluated and assigned to one of 7 discrete states based on threshold levels (0: <20, 1: 20-30, 2: 30-40, 3: 40-60, 4: 60-70, 5: 70-80, 6: >80)
Simultaneously, three binary conditions are evaluated: MACD line position relative to signal line, current volume relative to its moving average, and current close relative to previous close
These three binary conditions are combined into a single indicator state integer (0-7) using binary encoding, creating 8 possible indicator combinations
The RSI state and indicator state are stored together, defining one of 56 possible market condition cells in the matrix
2. Historical Data Accumulation
As each bar completes, the current state classification, closing price, and bar index are stored in rolling arrays maintained at the size specified by the lookback period
When the arrays reach capacity, the oldest data point is removed and the newest added, creating a sliding historical window
This continuous process builds a comprehensive database of past market conditions and their subsequent price movements
3. Forward Return Calculation and Statistics Update
On each bar, the indicator looks back through the stored historical data to find bars where sufficient forward bars exist to measure outcomes
For each historical occurrence, the price change from that bar to the bar N periods ahead (where N is the forward performance bars setting) is calculated as a percentage return
This percentage return is added to the cumulative return total for the specific matrix cell corresponding to that historical bar’s state classification
Occurrence counts are incremented, and wins are tallied for positive returns, building comprehensive statistics for each of the 56 cells
The Bayesian smoothing formula combines these raw statistics with prior assumptions (neutral 50% win rate) weighted by the smoothing strength parameter to produce estimated win rates that remain stable even with small samples
💡Note:
The Historical Matrix Analyzer is designed as a decision support tool, not a standalone trading system. Best results come from using it to validate discretionary trade ideas or filter systematic strategy signals. Always combine matrix insights with proper risk management, position sizing rules, and awareness of broader market context. The estimated win rate feature uses Bayesian statistics specifically to prevent false confidence from limited data, but no amount of smoothing can create reliable predictions from fundamentally insufficient sample sizes. Focus on high-confidence cells (green-colored confidence indicators) with occurrence counts well above your minimum threshold for the most actionable insights.
Project Pegasus SideMap • VRP Heatmap • Volume Node DetectionDescription CME_MINI:NQ1!
Project Pegasus – Volume SideMap V 1.0 builds a right-anchored horizontal volume heatmap silhouette, visualizing buy/sell participation per price level over any chosen lookback or visible range. It automatically detects Low-Volume Nodes (LVN), Medium-Volume Nodes (MVN), and High-Volume Nodes (HVN), while also marking Top Volume Peaks, POI Lines (Most-Touched Levels), and complete Value Area Levels (POC / VAH / VAL) including optional session highs/lows.
What’s Unique
Right-Fixed Rendering – All profile rows are anchored to the chart’s right edge, creating a consistent visual reference during live trading.
Gap-Free Silhouette – Each price row blends seamlessly with its neighbors, producing a clean and continuous volume shape.
Triple-Tier Node Detection (LVN / MVN / HVN) – Automatically highlights zones of rejection, transition, and acceptance based on relative volume strength.
Dynamic Binning System – Adapts to price range and lookback while preserving proportional per-row volume distribution.
POI Finder (Most Touches) – Highlights price rows that have been touched most frequently by bars (traffic clusters).
Top-N Peaks – Sorts and draws the strongest single-price clusters by total volume while respecting minimum spacing.
Integrated Value Area Metrics – Calculates and plots POC, VAH, and VAL with optional session High/Low markers.
Color Modes – Choose between heatmap intensity (volume-based) or buy/sell ratio blending for directional context.
Performance Optimized – Rebuilds only when structure changes, ensuring smooth operation even with large histories.
Technical Overview
1. Binning & Aggregation
The full price range is divided into a user-defined number of rows (bins) of equal height.
For each bar, traded volume is distributed across all intersecting bins proportionally to price overlap.
A buy/sell proxy is estimated based on candle close position, producing per-row Buy, Sell, and Total Volume arrays.
2. Silhouette Rendering
Each row’s strength = total volume ÷ maximum volume.
Two color modes:
• Volume Mode → intensity scales by relative volume (heatmap).
• Ratio Mode → blend between sell and buy base colors based on dominance (close position).
Weak or neutral rows can be faded or forced to minimum width via strength and ratio-deviation filters.
3. Node Detection (LVN / MVN / HVN)
Relative bands are defined by lower/upper % thresholds.
Consecutive rows meeting criteria are grouped into “bands.”
Optional gap-merge unifies nearby bands separated by small gaps (in ticks).
Quality filters:
• Min. Average in Band (%) → enforces minimum average participation.
• Min. Prominence vs. Neighbors (%) → compares contrast against adjacent volume peaks.
Enforces minimum center distance (in ticks) to prevent overlap.
Each valid band draws a Top/Bottom line pair and optional mid-label (LVN/MVN/HVN).
4. Volume Peaks
Ranks all rows by total volume (descending) and selects top N peaks with spacing filters.
Drawn as horizontal lines or labeled markers (P1, P2, etc.).
5. POI Lines (Most Touches)
During aggregation, each row counts how many bars overlap it.
The top X rows with highest touch counts are drawn as POI lines—often strong participation or mean-retest zones.
6. Value Area (POC / VAH / VAL)
POC = row with highest total volume.
Expands outward symmetrically until the configured Value Area % of total volume is covered.
VAH and VAL mark the acceptance range; optional High/Low lines outline total range boundaries.
7. Right-Fix Layout
All components are rendered relative to the chart’s rightmost bar.
Width dynamically scales with visible bars × % width setting, ensuring proportional scaling across zoom levels.
How to Use
Read market structure:
HVNs = high acceptance or balance areas → likely mean-reversion zones.
LVNs = thin participation → breakout or rejection points (“air pockets”).
MVNs = transition areas between acceptance and rejection.
Trade around POC / VAH / VAL:
These levels represent fair-value boundaries and rotational pivots.
POI & Peaks:
Use them as strong reference lines for responsive trading decisions.
Ratio-Color Mode:
Exposes directional imbalance and potential absorption zones visually.
Best practice:
Live trading → right-fix active, moderate row count.
Post-session analysis → higher granularity, LVN/HVN/MVN and peaks enabled with labels.

Dollar Volume Ownership Gauge Dollar Volume Ownership Gauge (DVOG)
By: Mando4_27
Version: 1.0 — Pine Script® v6
Overview
The Dollar Volume Ownership Gauge (DVOG) is designed to measure the intensity of real money participation behind each price bar.
Instead of tracking raw share volume, this tool converts every bar’s trading activity into dollar volume (price × volume) and highlights the transition points where institutional capital begins to take control of a move.
DVOG’s mission is simple:
Show when the crowd is trading vs. when the institutions are buying control.
Core Concept
Most retail traders focus on share count (volume) — but institutions think in dollar exposure.
A small-cap printing a 1-million-share candle at $1 is very different from a 1-million-share candle at $10.
DVOG normalizes this by displaying total traded dollar value per bar, then color-codes and alerts when the volume of money crosses key thresholds.
This exposes the exact moments when ownership is shifting — often before major breakouts, reclaims, or exhaustion reversals.
How It Works
Dollar Volume Calculation
Each candle’s dollar volume is computed as close × volume.
Data is aggregated from the 5-minute timeframe regardless of your current chart, allowing consistent institutional-flow detection on any resolution.
Threshold Logic
Two customizable levels define interest zones:
$500K Threshold → Early or moderate institutional attention.
$1M Threshold → High-conviction or aggressive accumulation.
Both levels can be edited to fit different market caps or trading styles.
Bar Coloring Scheme
Red = Dollar Volume ≥ $1,000,000 → Significant institutional activity / control bar.
Green = Dollar Volume ≥ $500,000 and < $1,000,000 → Emerging accumulation / transition bar.
Black = Below $500,000 → Retail or low-interest zone.
(Colors are intentionally inverted from standard expectation: when volume intensity spikes, the bar turns hotter in tone.)
Plot Display
Histogram style plot displays 5-minute aggregated dollar volume per bar.
Dotted reference lines mark $500K and $1M levels, with live right-hand labels for quick reading.
Optional debug label shows current bar’s dollar value, closing price, and raw volume for transparency.
Alerts & Conditions
DVOG includes three alert triggers for hands-off monitoring:
Alert Name Trigger Message Purpose
Green Bar Alert – Dollar Volume ≥ $500K When dollar volume first crosses $500K “Institutional interest starting on ” Signals early money entering.
Dollar Volume ≥ $500K Same as above, configurable “Early institutional interest detected…” Broad alert option.
Dollar Volume ≥ $1M When dollar volume first crosses $1M “Significant money flow detected…” Indicates heavy institutional presence or ignition bar.
You can enable or disable alerts via checkbox inputs, allowing you to monitor just the levels that fit your style.
Interpretation & Use Cases
Identify Institutional “Ignition” Points:
Watch for sudden green or red DVOG bars after long low-volume consolidation — these often precede explosive continuation moves.
Confirm Breakouts & Reclaims:
If price reclaims a key level (HOD, neckline, or coil top) and DVOG flashes green/red, odds strongly favor follow-through.
Spot Trap Exhaustion:
After a flush or low-volume fade, the first strong green/red DVOG bar can mark the institutional reclaim — the moment retail control ends.
Filter Noise:
Ignore standard volume spikes. DVOG only reacts when dollar ownership materially changes hands, not when small traders churn shares.
Customization
Setting Default Description
$500K Threshold 500,000 Lower limit for “Green” institutional attention.
$1M Threshold 1,000,000 Upper limit for “Red” heavy institutional control.
Show Alerts ✅ Enable or disable global alerts.
Alert on Green Bars ✅ Toggle only the $500K crossover alerts.
Adjust thresholds to match the liquidity of your preferred tickers — for example, micro-caps may use $100K/$300K, while large-caps might use $5M/$20M.
Reading the Output
Black baseline = Noise / retail chop.
First Green bar = Smart money starts building position.
Red bar(s) = Ownership shift confirmed — institutions active.
Flat-to-rising pattern in DVOG = Sustained accumulation; often aligns with strong trend continuation.
Summary
DVOG transforms raw volume into actionable context — showing you when capital, not hype, is moving.
It’s particularly effective for:
Momentum and breakout traders
Liquidity trap reclaims (Kuiper-style setups)
Identifying early ignition bars before halts
Confirming frontside strength in micro-caps
Use DVOG as your ownership radar — the visual cue for when the market stops being retail and starts being real.
AlphaFlow - Trend DetectorOVERVIEW
AlphaFlow identifies and tracks large volume moves by combining volume analysis, price impact measurement, and conviction scoring to separate significant institutional moves from normal trading activity. Rather than just flagging high volume, this indicator evaluates whether large trades actually moved the market and assigns conviction levels based on multiple confirmation factors.
WHAT MAKES THIS ORIGINAL
This is not simply a volume indicator or volume-weighted price tracker. The originality lies in the multi-factor conviction scoring system that evaluates whether large volume moves represent genuine institutional conviction or just noise.
Key Differentiators:
- Combines volume ratio AND price impact (volume alone doesn't mean conviction)
- Conviction scoring system that weighs trend alignment, follow-through, and volume persistence
- Cumulative flow tracking that shows persistent directional pressure over time
- Market regime detection (bullish/bearish/sideways) based on flow dynamics
- Tiered signal system (EXTREME/HIGH/MEDIUM conviction) rather than binary signals
This approach solves the problem of volume spikes that don't lead to meaningful price action, or price moves on low volume that don't persist.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Whale Detection Engine:
Volume Qualification: Compares current volume to a rolling average (default 50 bars). Whale activity requires volume to be at least 1.5x the average (adjustable).
Price Impact Requirement: Volume alone isn't enough. The bar must also show significant price movement (default 0.1% minimum). This filters out high-volume consolidation where no one is actually committed to direction.
Direction Identification: Bullish whale = close > open on high volume. Bearish whale = close < open on high volume.
2. Conviction Scoring System:
The indicator doesn't just flag whale activity - it evaluates conviction through multiple factors:
Base Conviction: Calculated from (volume_ratio × price_impact) / 10
This gives higher scores to moves with both exceptional volume AND large price swings.
Trend Alignment Bonus (1.5x multiplier): Whale moves aligned with the 20-period EMA trend receive higher conviction scores. Institutional money tends to accumulate with the trend, not against it.
Follow-Through Bonus (1.3x multiplier): After whale activity, does price continue in that direction over the next bars (default 3)? Genuine conviction shows persistence.
Volume Persistence (1.2x multiplier): Is elevated volume sustained over multiple bars, or is it a one-time spike? The 3-bar average volume ratio above 1.5x indicates sustained interest.
Conviction Levels:
- EXTREME: Score > 15 (large whale emoji labels, highest confidence)
- HIGH: Score > 8 (triangle signals, strong confidence)
- MEDIUM: Score > 3 (small triangles, moderate confidence)
- LOW: Score < 3 (not plotted to reduce noise)
3. Cumulative Flow Analysis:
Rather than treating each whale move in isolation, the indicator tracks cumulative flow using an EMA of whale activity. This reveals persistent directional pressure.
Flow Calculation: Each whale bar contributes (whale_strength × direction) to the flow. Strength is volume_ratio × price_impact_percent.
Flow Momentum: Rate of change in the cumulative flow (5-bar change)
Flow Acceleration: Second derivative (3-bar change of momentum)
These metrics reveal whether whale activity is accelerating, decelerating, or reversing.
4. Market Regime Detection:
Bullish Regime: Cumulative flow > 2 AND momentum positive
Bearish Regime: Cumulative flow < -2 AND momentum negative
Sideways Regime: Neither condition met
The background color reflects the current regime, helping traders understand the broader context.
5. Flow Strength Meter:
The main plot normalizes cumulative flow to a -100 to +100 scale based on the 100-bar range. This provides a consistent visual reference regardless of the asset or timeframe.
Extreme levels at ±50 indicate particularly strong directional flow where reversals or consolidation become more likely.
HOW TO USE IT
Settings Configuration:
Whale Detection Section:
- Volume Average Period (default 50): Shorter periods make detection more sensitive to recent volume changes. Longer periods require more exceptional volume to trigger.
- Whale Volume Multiplier (default 1.5): How much above average volume must be to qualify. Lower = more signals. Higher = only extreme moves.
- Minimum Price Impact (default 0.1%): Filters out high-volume bars that didn't actually move price. Adjust based on asset volatility.
Trend Analysis:
- Trend Strength Period (default 20): EMA period for trend alignment bonus
- Confirmation Bars (default 3): How many bars to check for follow-through
Visual Settings:
- Flow Strength Meter: Main plot showing normalized cumulative flow
- Conviction Labels: Detailed labels showing volume ratio and price impact on extreme/high conviction whales
- Trend Background: Color-coded regime indication
Signal Interpretation:
EXTREME Conviction (Whale Emoji Labels):
These are the highest confidence signals. Large volume with significant price impact, aligned with trend, showing follow-through. These often mark the beginning or continuation of strong moves.
HIGH Conviction (Large Triangles):
Strong signals meeting most criteria. Good for main entries or adding to positions.
MEDIUM Conviction (Small Triangles):
Whale activity present but with fewer confirmation factors. Use for partial positions or require additional confirmation.
Flow Strength Meter:
- Above zero and rising: Bullish flow building
- Below zero and falling: Bearish flow building
- Approaching ±50: Extreme readings, watch for exhaustion
- Crossing zero: Flow regime change
Dashboard Information:
The top-right table shows:
- Current regime (bullish/bearish/sideways)
- Flow strength value
- Last whale direction
- Conviction level of last whale
- Current volume ratio
- Flow momentum direction
- Indicator status
Trading Strategies:
Trend Following: Take EXTREME and HIGH conviction signals aligned with the flow meter direction. Enter when flow is positive and rising for bullish whales, negative and falling for bearish whales.
Regime-Based: Only trade in bullish/bearish regimes (colored backgrounds). Avoid trading in sideways regimes where whale moves tend to reverse quickly.
Flow Reversals: When flow meter crosses zero with EXTREME conviction whale in the new direction, this often marks regime changes.
Exhaustion Plays: When flow reaches ±50 extreme levels, watch for EXTREME conviction whales in the opposite direction as potential reversal signals.
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Volume Ratio = Current Volume / SMA(Volume, Period)
Price Impact % = ABS(Close - Open) / Open × 100
Whale Detected = (Volume Ratio >= Multiplier) AND (Price Impact >= Minimum)
Whale Direction = Close > Open ? 1 : -1
Base Conviction = (Volume Ratio × Price Impact %) / 10
Trend Alignment = Whale Direction == Trend Direction ? 1.5 : 1.0
Follow-Through = Price continues whale direction over N bars ? 1.3 : 1.0
Volume Persistence = SMA(Volume Ratio, 3) > 1.5 ? 1.2 : 1.0
Final Conviction = Base × Trend Alignment × Follow-Through × Volume Persistence
Whale Flow = Whale Detected ? (Volume Ratio × Price Impact × Direction) : 0
Cumulative Flow = EMA(Whale Flow, 20)
Flow Momentum = Change(Cumulative Flow, 5)
Flow Acceleration = Change(Momentum, 3)
Normalized Flow Strength = (Cumulative Flow / Highest(ABS(Cumulative Flow), 100)) × 100
WHAT THIS SOLVES
Common Volume Indicator Problems:
- Volume spikes that don't move price (consolidation noise)
- Price moves on low volume that quickly reverse
- No differentiation between strong and weak volume signals
- Treating all high-volume bars equally regardless of context
- No measure of whether volume represents conviction or panic
Whale Flow Solutions:
- Requires both volume AND price impact for signals
- Conviction scoring separates strong moves from weak ones
- Cumulative flow shows persistent pressure vs isolated spikes
- Trend alignment and follow-through filter low-quality signals
- Tiered system lets traders choose their confidence threshold
LIMITATIONS
- Cannot identify individual whales or attribute volume to specific entities
- High volume can come from many sources (whales, retail panic, algo activity)
- Works best on liquid assets with consistent volume patterns
- Less reliable on low-volume assets or during market closures
- Conviction scoring thresholds may need adjustment per asset/timeframe
- Does not predict future whale activity, only identifies it after bars close
- Flow can remain at extremes longer than expected during strong trends
- False signals can occur during news events or earnings
- Not a standalone trading system - requires risk management and other analysis
Best used in combination with price action, support/resistance, and broader market context.
EDUCATIONAL VALUE
For traders learning about:
- Volume analysis beyond simple volume indicators
- Multi-factor signal confirmation systems
- Market regime and flow concepts
- Conviction-based scoring methodologies
- Cumulative indicator design
- Normalized plotting for cross-asset comparison
- Pine Script table and dashboard creation

Dobrusky Volume PulseWhat it does & who it’s for
Volume Pulse is a lightweight, customizable volume profile overlay that shows traders how volume is distributed across price levels over a chosen lookback window. Unlike standard profiles, it also maps cumulative buy/sell pressure at each level, so you see not just where volume clustered, but which side dominated.
Core ideas
Cumulative volume by price: Builds a horizontal profile of traded volume at each level, based on user-defined depth and resolution.
Directional pressure mapping: At every price level, the script accumulates bullish vs. bearish volume based on candle closes vs. opens, providing a directional read on whether buyers or sellers had the upper hand.
POC: Automatically highlights the Point of Control (POC) — the level with the most activity.
Customizable presentation: Adjustable profile resolution, bar width, offset, colors, and whether to show cumulative, directional, or both.
How the components work together
The profile provides the “where,” while the buy/sell mapping adds the “who.” By combining these, traders can see whether a high-volume node was buyer-driven absorption or seller-driven distribution — a distinction classic profiles don’t reveal. This directional overlay reduces the guesswork of interpreting raw volume clusters.
How to use
Apply the overlay to your chart.
Watch the POC and areas of significant increase or decrease in volume (and pressure) as natural magnets or rejection areas.
When trading intraday, I've found that higher timeframe volume levels act as strong magnets. In the chart, you can see the volume levels I've drawn on the SPY daily chart. These levels are targets I use when trading the 5-minute chart.
Pay attention to color dominance at those zones — green-heavy nodes suggest buyer control; red-heavy nodes suggest seller control.
Combine with time-based volume tools and price-action for a more comprehensive trade plan.
Settings overview
Lookback depth: Number of bars used for profile calculation.
Profile resolution: Number of horizontal bars to split volume across price.
Bar style: Width, offset, and multiplier for scaling.
Toggle layers: Choose cumulative, directional, or both.
POC display: Optional highlight of the most traded level.
Limitations & best practices
This is a contextual overlay, not a trade-signal system.
Works best on liquid instruments (indices, futures, major stocks, liquid crypto) where volume distribution is meaningful.
Directional mapping uses candle body bias (close vs. open), not raw order flow. For full tape analysis, pair with actual order flow data.
Originality justification
Dual profile: combines cumulative volume-by-price and buyer/seller pressure per bin (close vs. open) — not a standard VP clone.
From-scratch binning + POC in a single pass for speed; no reused libraries.
Flexible display (cumulative / directional / both) with independent resolution, width, and offset for intraday or HTF use.
Clear visuals (optional POC, balanced node coloring) and open-source code so traders can audit and extend.
Volume Profile Two-Tone - Hit Counter - Meter V1 Volume Profile Two-Tone - Hit Counter - Meter V1
Overview
The Volume Profile Two-Tone - Hit Counter - Meter V1 is a Pine Script v6 indicator for TradingView, designed to visualize buy and sell activity distribution across price levels within a user-defined window or intraday session. It plots a dual-color horizontal histogram showing buying (green) and selling (red) volume intensity, along with optional hit-count numbers and meter overlays. The profile dynamically updates as new bars form, providing an intuitive picture of where market participants are most active.
The enhanced V1 edition introduces persistent hit counts, real-time adaptive row rebuilding, and improved memory management for smoother performance in both rolling-window and session modes.
How It Works
The indicator divides the selected range into rows (price bins) and aggregates trade volume (or tick volume) per bar.
Each bin separately sums up bullish and bearish contributions based on candle direction and delta logic, then draws side-by-side histogram bars:
• Buy Volume (green): Total volume from bullish bars within the bin.
• Sell Volume (red): Total volume from bearish bars within the bin.
A rolling or session-based window determines how many recent bars are analyzed. Value Area (VA), Point of Control (POC), and total hits per bin are computed continuously. The display auto-adjusts as price moves, keeping the profile anchored to the latest visible bars.
Behind the scenes, optimized arrays manage active boxes, lines, and labels for each bin. Functions like ensure_rows() rebuild buffers only when necessary, guaranteeing efficiency without repainting past data. Persistent hit-tracking ensures each price level maintains its count even when temporarily hidden.
Key Features
• Dual-Tone Volume Histogram: Buy/sell split with distinct colors for immediate visual contrast.
• Rolling or Session Profiles: Choose between continuous rolling windows or intraday session resets.
• Persistent Hit Counts: Displays total touches per bin, remaining stored even when bins refresh.
• Adaptive Row Management: Automatic rebuilding when zooming, scrolling, or changing resolution.
• Value Area + POC Detection: Highlights the most active price levels and volume concentration zones.
• Meter Overlay Option: Adds gradient bars or directional meters for quick trend context.
• Performance Optimized: Uses lightweight arrays and cached line handles for minimal CPU load.
• Custom Color Control: Editable buy/sell colors, opacity, row count, and profile width.
• Full Persistence Mode: Profiles remain visually consistent across bar updates without redraw gaps.
What It Displays
The Volume Profile Two-Tone - Hit Counter - Meter V1 presents an adaptive horizontal histogram beside the chart’s candles, revealing how volume is distributed across price.
• Green segments show dominant buying interest; red segments reveal selling pressure.
• POC line identifies the highest-volume price.
• Hit-count numbers quantify how often price traded at each level.
• Optional meters display relative directional strength within the same range.
This visual layering helps traders quickly identify supply/demand zones, balance areas, and developing auction profiles across intraday or multi-session contexts.
Originality
The Pine Script v6 indicator uses efficient array management (array.new_*, array.set, array.get) and native math operations for rendering.
It avoids external dependencies, relying only on built-in TradingView functions like request.security, box.new, line.new, and label.new for dynamic plotting.
Common Ways People Use It
• Scalpers: Study short-term imbalances or high-activity levels to time entries/exits.
• Day Traders: Track evolving session volume and POC migration.
• Swing Analysts: Compare rolling distributions to identify value shifts over multiple days.
• Volume Profilers: Combine with VWAP or order-flow tools for deeper context.
Configuration Notes
Profile Mode: Select Rolling Window (bars) or Session (intraday).
Rows and Width: Default = 72 rows, 44 bars width.
Colors and Opacity: Adjust to match chart theme.
Performance Mode: Choose Accurate or Fast (approximate) for speed control.
Show Hits / Meter: Enable hit-count numbers and gradient meters for added context.

Smart Money Volume Activity [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This tool visualizes how Smart Money and Retail participants behave through lower-timeframe volume analysis. It detects volume spikes far beyond normal activity, classifies them as institutional or retail, and projects those zones as reactive levels. The script updates dynamically with each bar, showing when large players enter while tracking whether those events remain profitable. Each event is drawn as a horizontal line with bubble markers and summarized in a live P/L table comparing Smart Money versus Retail.
🟠 CONCEPTS
The core logic uses Z-score normalization on lower-timeframe volumes (like 5m inside a 1h chart). This lets the script detect statistically extreme bursts of buying or selling activity. It classifies each detected event as:
Smart Money — volume inside the candle body (suggesting hidden accumulation or distribution)
Retail — volume closing at bar extremes (suggesting chase entries or panic exits)
When new events appear, the script plots them as horizontal levels that persist until price interacts again. Each level acts as a potential reaction zone or liquidity footprint. The integrated P/L table then measures which class (Retail or Smart Money) is currently “winning” — comparing cumulative profitable versus losing volume.
🟠 FEATURES
Classifies flows into Smart Money or Retail based on candle-body context.
Displays live P/L comparison table for Smart vs Retail performance.
Alerts for each detected Smart or Retail buy/sell event.
🟠 USAGE
Setup : Add the script to any chart. Set Lower Timeframe Value (e.g., “5” for 5m) smaller than your main chart timeframe. The Period input controls how many bars are analyzed for the Z-score baseline. The Threshold (|Z|) decides how extreme a volume must be to plot a level.
Read the chart : Horizontal lines mark where heavy Smart or Retail volume occurred. Bright bubbles show the strongest events — their size reflects Z-score intensity. The on-chart table updates live: green cells show profitable flows, red cells show losing flows. A dominant green Smart Money row suggests institutions are currently controlling price.
See what others are doing :
Settings that matter : Raising Threshold (|Z|) filters noise, showing only large players. Increasing Period smooths results but reacts slower to new bursts. Use Show = “Both” for full comparison or isolate “Smart Money” / “Retail” to focus on one class.
Trend Pivots Profile [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Trend Pivots Profile is a dynamic volume profile tool that builds profiles around pivot points to reveal where liquidity accumulates during trend shifts. When the market is in an uptrend , the indicator generates profiles at low pivots . In a downtrend , it builds them at high pivots . Each profile is constructed using lower timeframe volume data for higher resolution, making it highly precise even in limited space. A colored trendline helps traders instantly recognize the prevailing trend and anticipate which type of profile (bullish or bearish) will form.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Pivot-Driven Profiles : Profiles are only created when a new pivot forms, aligning liquidity analysis with market structure shifts.
Trend-Contextual : Profiles form at low pivots in uptrends and at high pivots in downtrends.
Lower Timeframe Data : Volume and close values are pulled from smaller timeframes to provide detailed, high-resolution profiles inside larger pivot windows.
Adaptive Bin Sizing : Bin size is automatically calculated relative to ATR, ensuring consistent precision across different markets and volatility conditions.
Point of Control (PoC) : The highest-volume level within each profile is marked with a PoC line that extends until the next pivot forms.
Trendline Visualization : A wide, semi-transparent line follows the rolling average of highs and lows, colored blue in uptrends and orange in downtrends.
🔵 FEATURES
Pivot Length Control : Adjust how far back the script looks to detect pivots (e.g., length 5 → profiles cover 10 bars after pivot).
Pivot Profile toggle :
On → draw the filled pivot profile + PoC + pivot label.
Off → hide profiles; show only PoC level (clean S/R mode).
Trend Length Filter : Smooths trendline detection to ensure reliable up/down bias.
Precise Volume Distribution : Volume is aggregated into bins, creating a smooth volume curve around the pivot range.
PoC Extension : Automatically extends the most active price level until a new pivot is confirmed.
Profile Visualization : Profiles appear as filled shapes anchored at the pivot candle, colored based on trend.
Trendline Overlay : Thick, semi-transparent trendline provides visual guidance on directional bias.
Automatic Cleanup : Old profiles are deleted once they exceed the chart’s capacity (default 25 stored profiles).
🔵 HOW TO USE
Spotting Trend Liquidity : In an uptrend, monitor profiles at low pivots to see where buyers concentrated. In downtrends, use high-pivot profiles to spot sell-side pressure.
Watch the PoC : The PoC line highlights the strongest traded level of the pivot structure—expect reactions when price retests it.
Anticipate Trend Continuation/Reversal : Use the trendline (blue = bullish, orange = bearish) together with pivot profiles to forecast directional momentum.
Combine with HTF Context : Overlay with higher timeframe structure (order blocks, liquidity zones, or FVGs) for confluence.
Fine-Tune with Inputs : Adjust Pivot Length for sensitivity and Trend Length for smoother or faster trend shifts.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Trend Pivots Profile blends pivot-based structure with precise volume profiling. By dynamically plotting profiles on pivots aligned with the prevailing trend, highlighting PoCs, and overlaying a directional trendline, it equips traders with a clear view of liquidity clusters and directional momentum—ideal for anticipating reactions, pullbacks, or breakouts.
Cnagda Pure Price ActionCnagda Pure Price Action (CPPA) indicator is a pure price action-based system designed to provide traders with real-time, dynamic analysis of the market. It automatically identifies key candles, support and resistance zones, and potential buy/sell signals by combining price, volume, and multiple popular trend indicators.
How Price Action & Volume Analysis Works
Silver Zone – Logic, Reason, and Trade Planning
Logic & Visualization:
The Silver Zone is created when the closing price is the lowest in the chosen window and volume is the highest in that window.
Visually, a large silver-colored box/rectangle appears on the chart.
Thick horizontal lines (top and bottom) are drawn at the high and low of that candle/bar, extending to the right.
Reasoning:
This combination typically occurs at strong “accumulation” or support areas:
Sellers push the price down to the lowest point, but aggressive buyers step in with high volume, absorbing supply.
Indicates potential exhaustion of selling and likely shift in market control to buyers.
How to Plan Trades Using Silver Zone:
Watch if price returns to the Silver Zone in the future: It often acts as powerful support.
Bullish entries (buys) can be planned when price tests or slightly pierces this zone, especially if new buy signals occur (like yellow/green candle labels).
Place your stop-loss below the bottom line of the Silver Zone.
Target: Look for the nearest resistance or opposing zone, or use indicator’s bullish label as confirmation.
Extra Tip:
Multiple touches of the Silver Zone reinforce its importance, but if price closes deeply below it with high volume, that’s a caution signal—support may be breaking.
Black Zone – Logic, Reason, and Trade Planning (as CPPA):
Logic & Visualization:
The Black Zone is created when the closing price is the highest in the chosen window and volume is the lowest in that window.
Visually, a large black-colored box/rectangle appears on the chart, along with thick horizontal lines at the top (high) and bottom (low) of the candle, extending to the right.
Reasoning:
This combination signals a strong “distribution” or resistance area:
Buyers push the price up to a local high, but low volume means there is not much follow-through or conviction in the move.
Often marks exhaustion where uptrend may pause or reverse, as sellers can soon step in.
How to Plan Trades Using Black Zone:
If price revisits the Black Zone in the future, it often acts as major resistance.
Bearish entries (sells) are considered when price is near, testing, or slightly above the Black Zone—especially if new sell signals appear (like blue/red candle labels).
Place your stop-loss just above the top line of the Black Zone.
Target: Nearest support zone (such as a Silver Zone) or next indicator’s bearish label.
Extra Tip:
Multiple touches of the Black Zone make it stronger, but if price closes far above with rising volume, be cautious—resistance might be breaking.
Support Line – Logic, Reason, and Trade Planning (as Cppa):
Logic & Visualization:
The Support Line is a dynamically drawn dashed line (usually blue) that marks key price levels where the market has previously shown significant buying interest.
The line is generated whenever a candle forms a high price with high volume (orange logic).
The script checks for historical pivot lows, past support zones, and even higher timeframe (HTF) supports, and then extends a blue dashed line from that price level to the right, labeling it (sometimes as “Prev Support Orange, HTF”).
Reasoning:
This line helps you visually identify where demand has been strong enough to hold price from falling further—essentially a floor in the market used by professional traders.
If price approaches or re-tests this line, there’s a good chance buyers will defend it again.
How to Plan Trades Using Support Line:
Watch for price to approach the Support Line during down moves. If you see a bullish candlestick pattern, buy labels (yellow/green), or other indicators aligning, this can be a high-probability entry zone.
Great for planning stop-loss for long trades: place stops just below this line.
Target: Next resistance zone, Black Zone, or the top of the last swing.
Extra Tip:
Multiple confirmations (support line + Silver Zone + bullish label) provide powerful entry signals.
If price closes strongly below the Support Line with volume, be cautious—support may be breaking, and a trend reversal or deeper correction could follow.
Resistance Line – Logic, Reason, and Trade Planning (from CPPA):
Logic & Visualization:
The Resistance Line is a dynamically drawn dashed line (usually purple or red) that identifies price levels where the market has previously faced significant selling pressure.
This line is created when a candle reaches a high price combined with high volume (orange logic), or from a historical pivot high/resistance,
The script also tracks higher timeframe (HTF) resistance lines, labeled as “Prev Resistance Orange, HTF,” and extends these dashed lines to the right across the chart.
Reasoning:
Resistance Lines are visual markers of “supply zones,” where buyers previously failed, and sellers took control.
If the price returns to this line later, sellers may get active again to defend this level, halting the uptrend.
How to Plan Trades Using Resistance Line:
Watch for price to approach the Resistance Line during up moves. If you see bearish candlestick patterns, sell labels (blue/red), or bearish indicator confirmation, this becomes a strong shorting opportunity.
Perfect for placing stop-loss in short trades—put your stop just above the Resistance Line.
Target: Next support zone (Silver Zone) or bottom of the last swing.
If the price breaks above with high volume, avoid shorting—resistance may be failing.
Extra Tip:
Multiple resistances (Resistance Line + Black Zone + bearish label) make short signals stronger.
Choppy movement around this line often signals indecision; wait for a clear rejection before entering trades.
Bullish / Bearish Label – Logic, Reason, and Trade Planning:
Logic & Visualization:
The indicator constantly calculates a "Bull Score" and a "Bear Score" based on several factors:
Trend direction from price slope
Confirmation by popular indicators (RSI, ADX, SAR, CMF, OBV, CCI, Bollinger Bands, TWAP)
Adaptive scoring (higher score for each bullish/bearish condition met)
If Bull Score > Bear Score, the chart displays a green "BULLISH" label (usually below the bar).
If Bear Score > Bull Score, the chart displays a red "BEARISH" label (usually above the bar).
If neither dominates, a "NEUTRAL" label appears.
Reasoning:
The labels summarize complex price action and indicator analysis into a simple, actionable sentiment cue:
Bullish: Majority of conditions indicate buying strength; trend is up.
Bearish: Majority signals show selling pressure; trend is down.
How to Use in Trade Planning:
Use the Bullish label as confirmation to enter or hold long (buy) positions, especially if near support/Silver Zone.
Use the Bearish label to enter/hold short (sell) positions, especially if near resistance/Black Zone.
For best results, combine with candle color, volume analysis, or other labels (yellow/green for buys, blue/red for sells).
Avoid trading against these labels unless you have strong confluence from zones/support levels.
Yellow Label (Buy Signal) – Logic, Reason & Trade Planning:
Logic & Visualization:
The yellow label appears below a candle (label.style_label_up, yloc.belowbar) and marks a potential buy signal.
Script conditions:
The candle must be a “yellow candle” (which means it’s at the local lowest close, not a high, with normal volume).
Volume is decreasing for 2 consecutive candles (current volume < previous volume, previous volume < second previous).
When these conditions are met, a yellow label is plotted below the candle.
Reasoning:
This scenario often marks the end of selling pressure and start of possible accumulation—buyers may be stepping in as sellers exhaust.
Decreasing volume during a local price low means selling is slowing, possibly hinting at a reversal.
How to Trade Using Yellow Label:
Entry: Consider buying at/just above the yellow-labeled candle’s close.
Stop-loss: A bit below the candle’s low (or Silver Zone line, if present).
Target: Next resistance level, Black Zone, or chart’s bullish label.
Extra Tip:
If the yellow label is found at/near a Silver Zone or Support Line, and trend is “Bullish,” the setup gets even stronger.
Avoid trading if overall indicator shows “Bearish.”
Green Label (Buy with Increasing Volume) – Logic, Reason & Trade Planning:
Logic & Visualization:
The green label is plotted below a candle (label.style_label_up, yloc.belowbar) and marks a strong buy signal.
Script conditions:
The candle must be a “yellow candle” (at the local lowest close, normal volume).
Volume is increasing for 2 consecutive candles (current volume > previous volume, previous volume > second previous).
When these conditions are met, a green label is plotted below the candle.
Reasoning:
This scenario signals that buyers are stepping in aggressively at a local price low—the end of a downtrend with strong, rising activity.
Increasing volume at a price low is a classic sign of accumulation, where institutions or large players may be buying.
How to Trade Using Green Label:
Entry: Consider buying at/just above the green-labeled candle’s close for a momentum-based reversal.
Stop-loss: Slightly below the candle’s low, or the Silver Zone/support line if present.
Target: Nearest resistance zone/Black Zone, indicator’s bullish label, or next swing high.
Extra Tip:
If the green label is near other supports (Silver Zone, Support Line), the setup is extra strong.
Use confirmation from Bullish labels or trend signals for best results.
Green label setups are suitable for quick, high momentum trades due to increasing volume
Blue Label (Sell Signal on Decreasing Volume) – Logic, Reason & Trade Planning:
Logic & Visualization:
The blue label is plotted above a candle (label.style_label_down, yloc.abovebar) as a potential sell signal.
Script conditions:
The candle is a “blue candle” (local highest close, but not also lowest, and volume is neither highest nor lowest).
Volume is decreasing over 2 consecutive candles (current volume < previous, previous < two ago).
When these match, a blue label appears above the candle.
Reasoning:
This typically signals buyer exhaustion at a local high: price has gone up, but volume is dropping, suggesting big players may not be buying any more at these levels.
The trend is losing strength, and a reversal or pullback is likely.
How to Trade Using Blue Label:
Entry: Look to sell at/just below the candle with the blue label.
Stop-loss: Just above the candle’s high (or above the Black Zone/resistance if present).
Target: Nearest support, Silver Zone, or a swing low.
Extra Tip:
Blue label signals are stronger if they appear near Black Zones or Resistance Lines, or when the general market label is "Bearish."
As with buy setups, always check for confirmation from trend or volume before trading aggressively.

As with buy setups, always check for confirmation from trend or volume before trading aggressively.
Here’s a summary of all key chart labels, zones, and trading logic of your Price Action script:
Silver Zone: Powerful support zone. Created at lowest close + highest volume. Best for buy entries near its lines.
Black Zone: Strong resistance zone. Created at highest close + lowest volume. Ideal for short trades near its levels.
Support Line: Blue dashed line at historical demand; buyers defend here. Look for bullish setups when price approaches.
Resistance Line: Purple/red dashed line at supply; sellers defend here. Great for bearish setups when price nears.
Bullish/Bearish Labels: Summarize trend direction using price action + multiple indicator confirmations. Plan buys, holds on bullish; sells, shorts on bearish.
Yellow Label: Buy signal on decreasing volume and local price low. Entry above candle, stop below, target next resistance.
Green Label: Strong buy on increasing volume at a price low. Entry for momentum trade, stop below, target next zone.
Blue Label: Sell signal on dropping volume and local price high. Entry below candle, stop above, target next support.
Best Practices:
Always combine zone/label signals for higher probability trades.
Use stop-loss near zones/lines for risk management.
Prefer trading in the trend direction (bullish/bearish label agrees with your entry).

Overnight Z/VolRatio SignalThis indicator highlights overnight setups where both volatility expansion and prior-day range deviation suggest directional opportunity at the RTH open.
It calculates:
• Overnight Z-Score (Z_long): how far the overnight session’s range tilts from the 20-day overnight mean, standardized by its standard deviation.
• VolRatio: ratio of the current RTH session volume to the 20-day average, a proxy for participation and conviction.
Signal Logic (LONG bias)
A long-bias condition triggers when:
• Z_long ≥ 0.40 (overnight tilt strongly positive)
• VolRatio ≥ 1.30 (above-average RTH volume)
• Optional filters: R1/R4 region alignment, YDH/YDL proximity, and other context flags.
Visuals mark qualifying days with colored labels and session highlights.
It is intended as a context signal — not an auto-trading system — for SPY/SPX/ES or correlated large-cap indices.
Usage Notes
• Works best when applied to daily or intraday 5m chart with extended hours enabled.
• Typical exit: ~150 minutes after 09:30 ET.
• Fridays are optionally excluded to avoid expiration-related distortions.

Volume-Confirmed Reversal Engine [AlgoPoint]Volume-Confirmed Reversal Engine v2.0
Overview
A price pattern alone is not enough to signal a high-probability reversal. True market turning points—moments of capitulation or euphoria—are almost always confirmed by a significant spike in volume.
The Volume-Confirmed Reversal Engine is designed to identify these exact moments. It filters out low-conviction price movements and focuses only on reversal patterns that are backed by meaningful volume activity.
How It Works
The indicator's logic is based on a sequential confirmation process:
- High-Volume Anchor Candle: The engine first scans for an "Anchor Candle"—a candle that makes a new high or low over a user-defined look_back period. Critically, this candle's volume must also be significantly higher than the recent average. Low-volume breakouts are ignored.
- Setup Activation & Visualization: When a valid Anchor Candle is detected, the indicator enters a "setup" phase. It visually marks this on your chart by drawing a Setup Box around the high and low of the Anchor Candle, extending it forward for the duration of the confirm_in window.
- Confirmation & Signal: A final signal is only triggered if the price breaks out of the opposite side of the Setup Box within the confirmation window. This action, combined with the initial volume spike, confirms the reversal.
- Setup Box Visualization: See exactly which candle the indicator is watching and the key price levels (the box boundaries) that need to be broken for a signal.
Signal Strength Score (1-4): Every signal now comes with a score, providing insight into its quality based on four factors:
- The base price pattern is met.
- The initial Anchor Candle had high volume.
- The final Confirmation Candle also had high volume.
- The signal is aligned with the long-term macro trend (e.g., a BUY signal above the 200 EMA).
Status Dashboard: A simple panel on your chart tells you what the indicator is doing in real-time ("Scanning for Setups," "Watching Bullish Setup," etc.) and displays a countdown for how many bars are left for a confirmation.
How to Interpret & Use
- The Box: When a colored box appears, it's an early warning that a reversal setup is active. Watch the boundaries of the box for a potential breakout.
- The Score: Use the score to gauge the quality of a signal. A 3/4 or 4/4 score represents a very high-conviction setup where multiple technical factors are aligned.
- The Dashboard: Use the panel to understand the indicator's current state and the time-sensitivity of an active setup.
- The BUY/SELL Labels: These are the final, actionable triggers, appearing only after the full price and volume confirmation process is complete.
Project Pegasus ChronosDescription
Project Pegasus Chronos is the flagship volume-intelligence overlay of the Pegasus suite, built for traders who read the tape. It spots where the tape gets hit, where moves get absorbed, and when pressure flips — in real time, without repainting. Chronos blends high-signal volume spikes, absorption, pure-delta mismatches, and two crisp market-pressure HUDs into one surgical visualization that stays readable even on noisy charts.
What’s unique
Layered volume intelligence that cuts through noise: spikes, absorption, delta traps, trend bias, and pressure — at a glance.
Absorption Engine – Proprietary scoring of wick/body/delta context to flag “hit & hold” moments where moves stall.
Pure-Delta Mismatch Bubbles – Instantly reveal fake strength or weakness when the candle fights the tape.
Mirage Filters (Add-on) – Smart VolSpike & PriceClamp regime tags (squeeze vs. burst) for clean entries and exits.
Pegasus TrendDynamic – Adaptive bias band with one-look flips and optional shadow fill for context.
Dual HUDs – Buy/Sell Volume HUD and Market Pressure HUD with a Shock badge for sudden impulses.
Readable by Design – Color presets, clustering, absolute filters, and performance scopes (12/24/48/72H) keep charts fast & clean.
Non-repainting – Signals are produced only on confirmed bars; no lookahead.
How it works
Chronos aggregates recent market behavior into simple, decisive visuals:
Bubbles scale by spike tier and direction to highlight initiative participation.
Absorption marks flag bars where flow hits and fails to push through.
Pure-delta markers expose liquidity traps (delta vs. candle color).
TrendDynamic provides a smooth, adaptive bias rail.
HUDs quantify who’s pressing harder and when a shock event fires.
How to use
Stalk large bubbles near key levels; pair them with absorption marks to time fades or continuations.
Treat pure-delta mismatches as early trap signals — especially near session highs/lows or FVGs.
Trade in alignment with the TrendDynamic bias; use Market Pressure HUD & Shock to time adds or cuts.
Refine visuals via clustering and absolute-volume filters on fast instruments.
Notes & limitations
Built for intraday futures, crypto, and FX — but works across assets and timeframes.
If visuals get heavy, use scope, clustering, and filters to keep it buttery smooth.
Analysis and visualization tool — not a signal service.
