Adaptive Scaled LevelsThis indicator allows users to manually define a list of price levels (e.g., round or psychological numbers) and automatically scales them to fit any asset's current price range using an intelligent anchor point. It then plots dynamic horizontal zones ideal for identifying potential supply/demand or reaction areas.
How It Works (Technical Methodology)
Manual Price List Input
Users enter a comma-separated list of price levels via a text area input (default example: 50,100,...,1400). These act as a "template" grid – often round numbers, psychological levels, or custom targets.
Auto-Scaling Logic (Core Innovation)
When enabled:
Calculates the average of the input list.
Determines a smart anchor price:
Default (Lock = 0): Close price of the highest-volume bar in the last user-defined lookback period (default 200 bars), fetched from a selectable timeframe (default Daily) via request.security().
Override: User can manually lock the anchor to any fixed price.
Computes a scale factor = Anchor / List Average.
Multiplies every input level by this factor to adapt the entire grid to the current market (e.g., scales low-price templates to BTC's 60k+ range).
Zone Construction
For each scaled level:
Creates a horizontal box centered on the level.
Height = Level × user-defined percentage (default 0.5%) for volatility-adjusted thickness.
Zones extend infinitely to the right for continuous reference.
Supply/Demand Coloring
Levels above current close: Supply color (default light gray) – potential resistance/overhead supply.
Levels below current close: Demand color (default cyan) – potential support/underlying demand.
Visual Elements
Transparent filled boxes with borders.
Optional labels showing "S" (Supply) or "D" (Demand) plus exact price.
Clean, non-cluttering design – redraws only on last bar for performance.
How to Use
This tool is perfect for plotting adaptive psychological/round number grids across any asset without manual adjustment.
Common Template: Use evenly spaced round numbers (e.g., 100 increments) as input – the script handles scaling.
BTC/ETH/Crypto: Enable auto-scaling with Daily timeframe anchor for high-volume alignment (often near fair value).
Forex/Stocks: Lower zone height % for tighter zones; use shorter lookback or lock anchor for stability.
Trading Applications:
Anticipate reactions/bounces at scaled levels (confluence with price action, volume, or order blocks).
Supply zones (above price): Potential short entries or take-profit targets.
Demand zones (below price): Potential long entries or stop-loss placement below.
Override anchor for specific analysis (e.g., lock to all-time high).
Best Practices: Combine with trend direction, higher-timeframe structure, or liquidity concepts for higher-probability setups.
Highly versatile – works on any timeframe/asset, especially volatile ones like cryptocurrencies where fixed levels quickly become irrelevant.

## 📌 Indicator Concept & Trading Logic
This is a rule-based reference indicator designed to interpret **option price behavior** using **previous-day derived equilibrium levels**.
The indicator helps traders classify the market into **range-bound, breakout, or invalid trade zones** by observing how **ATM Call (CE) and Put (PE)** prices react around these levels.
All levels are **fixed for the trading day** and recalculated only on the next session.
---
## 📊 Core Levels Explained
The indicator plots the following **daily-anchored reference levels**:
* **PDH / PDL** – Previous Day High / Low of the option
* **PDC** – Previous Day Close
* **100% AVG (Breakout Zone)**
Average of previous-day CE and PE prices for the same strike
* **75% AVG (Midzone)**
Balance / decision zone
* **50% AVG (Support Zone)**
Lower acceptance / decay boundary
These levels act as **reaction zones**, not prediction lines.
---
## 🧠 Market Interpretation Logic
### 1️⃣ Range-Bound Market Condition
* When **both ATM CE and ATM PE** are **trading within the 100% AVG (Breakout) level**,
the market has a **high probability of remaining range-bound**.
* Premium expansion is limited on both sides.
* Ideal environment for **non-directional strategies**.
---
### 2️⃣ Breakout Validation
* A **true directional move** requires **asymmetry** between CE and PE.
* If **one side moves into breakout**, the **opposite side must stay suppressed**.
**Example:**
* If **CE breaks down below Midzone**,
then **PE must be above Breakout or at least above Midzone**.
* The same logic applies inversely for PE breakdowns.
This confirms **capital rotation**, not random premium decay.
---
### 3️⃣ Midzone (75%) – Reversal Watch Area
* The **Midzone** is a **high-probability reaction area**.
* Many intraday reversals initiate from this level.
* Price acceptance or rejection here defines:
* Continuation
* Mean reversion
* Failed breakout
This zone should be **closely monitored for structure and volume behavior**.
---
### 4️⃣ Support Zone (50%) – Trade Invalidation
* When an option price trades **below the Support (50%) level**:
* That option side becomes **non-tradable**
* Premium strength is lost
* Risk increases significantly
Trades **below support** are considered **low probability** and should be avoided.
---
## ⚠️ Important Usage Notes
* This indicator is **not a buy/sell signal generator**
* It is a **context and decision-filter tool**
* Best used in combination with:
* Price action
* Structure
* Spot/index behavior
* Time-of-day context
All levels are **session-anchored** and do **not repaint intraday**.
---
## 🎯 Intended Use Case
* Intraday option traders
* ATM / near-ATM focus
* Range vs directional market identification
* Premium behavior analysis
* Trade filtering and risk control

Trend Stress Quant [MarkitTick]💡This indicator combines a liquidity-based stress model with a dynamic linear regression channel to identify potential market exhaustion points and assess trend quality. By merging volume impact analysis with statistical deviation, this tool aims to highlight moments where price action may be overextended relative to the underlying liquidity conditions.
● Originality and Utility
Standard volatility indicators often rely solely on price range (like Bollinger Bands). This script introduces a Stress Engine that normalizes the relationship between Price Range (True Range) and Volume. This helps distinguish between healthy price movements and liquidity-stress events (illiquidity). Furthermore, instead of using a fixed-length channel, this tool offers a Dynamic Mode that anchors the regression channel to recent pivot points, ensuring the statistical analysis aligns with the current market structure rather than an arbitrary timeframe.
● Methodology
The script operates on two distinct mathematical models:
• Illiquidity Stress Engine
The core formula calculates a raw illiquidity metric based on the log-normal distribution of the ratio between True Range and Volume. A Z-Score (standard score) is then derived from this data over a specific lookback period. High Z-Scores indicate that price is moving disproportionately fast relative to the available volume, often a signature of panic selling or euphoric buying (exhaustion).
• Linear Regression Channel
The script calculates an Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression line (the line of best fit) to determine the mean price trend.
Standard Deviation Bands are plotted parallel to this mean.
Pearson Correlation Coefficient (R) is calculated to quantify the strength of the linear trend. Values closer to 1 or -1 indicate a strong trend, while values near 0 indicate a chaotic or ranging market.
📑 How to Use
Traders can utilize the visual outputs for mean reversion or trend continuation context:
• Exhaustion Signals (SE / BE Labels)
SE (Seller Exhaustion): Appears when the market is in a downtrend, but the Stress Engine detects a statistical anomaly (High Z-Score) on a down candle. This suggests panic selling may be peaking.
BE (Buyer Exhaustion): Appears when the market is in an uptrend, but the Stress Engine detects high stress on an up candle, suggesting a potential blow-off top.
• Regression Channel
The dashed middle line represents the fair value (mean) of the current trend.
The outer bands represent statistical extremes. Price interacting with the outer bands (default 2 Standard Deviations) while coincident with an Exhaustion Signal provides a high-confluence area of interest.
• Metrics Dashboard
A dashboard displays the current Trend Regime, Exhaustion Status, and Channel Width (volatility percentage).
● Settings
• Exhaustion Model
Trend Filter Length: Sets the baseline EMA to determine if the market is bullish or bearish.
Stress Threshold (Sigma): The Z-Score required to trigger an exhaustion signal (default is 2.0).
• Channel Configuration
Dynamic Pivot Mode: If enabled, automatically calculates the channel length based on recent pivots. If disabled, uses the Fixed Length.
Standard Deviations: Controls the width of the inner and outer channel bands.
📖This guide explains how to interpret and utilize signals for trading:
The script is designed primarily for Mean Reversion and Exhaustion trading strategies.
● The Core Strategy: Volatility Exhaustion
The script uses a "Stress Engine" to identify when price movement is statistically overextended relative to the available liquidity (Volume).
• Setup A: The "Seller Exhaustion" (Bullish Bounce)
Look for this setup during a downtrend to catch a temporary bottom or a reversal.
Trend Condition: The dashboard shows Bearish (Price is below the trend filter).
Trigger: The label SE (Seller Exhaustion) appears below a candle.
Why? This indicates that selling pressure was intense but likely panic-driven (High Z-Score/Stress) and may be drying up.
Confluence: Ideally, this signal appears when the price is touching or piercing the Lower Channel Band (dotted or solid lines).
Action: Traders often use this as a signal to close Short positions or enter a speculative Long (counter-trend) targeting the middle line.
• Setup B: The "Buyer Exhaustion" (Bearish Pullback)
Look for this setup during an uptrend to catch a local top.
Trend Condition: The dashboard shows Bullish .
Trigger: The label BE (Buyer Exhaustion) appears above a candle.
Why? This indicates euphoric buying on low liquidity or extreme volatility that is statistically unsustainable.
Confluence: Look for price rejection at the Upper Channel Band.
Action: Traders often use this to close Long positions or enter a Short targeting the mean.
● The Filter: Trend & Correlation
The script includes a Linear Regression Channel that quantifies the quality of the trend.
• Channel Slope
If the channel is angling steeply up or down, the trend is strong.
• Pearson R (Correlation)
The script calculates the Pearson R coefficient.
Weak Correlation: If the channel turns Gray/Neutral (or the fill becomes weak), it means the correlation is below the threshold (default 0.5).
Trading Rule: Avoid trading exhaustion signals when the channel is Gray/Neutral, as the market is likely chopping sideways with no clear direction.
● Risk Management & Targets
• Stop Loss
Since this is a volatility tool, a common technique is to place stops just outside the Outer Deviation Band (the widest line). If price expands beyond the outer band with no exhaustion signal, the trend may be entering a "runaway" phase.
• Take Profit
Target 1: The Middle Regression Line (The dashed center line). Prices tend to revert to this mean after an exhaustion event.
Target 2: The opposite channel band (e.g., if you bought at the bottom, hold until the top).
● Summary of Dashboard Metrics
The table on your chart provides a quick snapshot:
Trend Regime: Tells you if you should fundamentally look for Shorts (Bearish) or Longs (Bullish).
Seller/Buyer Status: Alerts you if the current bar is EXHAUSTED or Normal .
Channel Width %: Indicates volatility. If the width is very low (percentage is small), a breakout might be imminent (squeezing). If high, be careful of chop.
⚙️ Indicator settings
• Signal Parameters
Exhaustion & Stress Model: Controls signal sensitivity.
Trend Filter: Decides if the market is Bullish or Bearish.
Stress Threshold (Sigma): Higher values (e.g., 2.5) make the script stricter, showing fewer but potentially stronger signals.
• Channel Configuration
Dynamic Pivot Mode: If ON, the channel length auto-adjusts to recent market pivots. If OFF, it uses the Fixed Length you set.
Channel Bands: Adjusts the channel width.
Outer Deviation: The boundary for "extreme" moves. Price hitting this often signals a reversal.
• Quality Filter
Filter Weak Correlations: If enabled, the channel turns gray during choppy/sideways markets to warn you not to trust trend signals.
• Visuals
Display Options: Toggles the "Stats" dashboard and adjusts volatility coloring.

Adaptive ML Trailing Stop [BOSWaves]Adaptive ML Trailing Stop – Regime-Aware Risk Control with KAMA Adaptation and Pattern-Based Intelligence
Overview
Adaptive ML Trailing Stop is a regime-sensitive trailing stop and risk control system that adjusts stop placement dynamically as market behavior shifts, using efficiency-based smoothing and pattern-informed biasing.
Instead of operating with fixed ATR offsets or rigid trailing rules, stop distance, responsiveness, and directional treatment are continuously recalculated using market efficiency, volatility conditions, and historical pattern resemblance.
This creates a live trailing structure that responds immediately to regime change - contracting during orderly directional movement, relaxing during rotational conditions, and applying probabilistic refinement when pattern confidence is present.
Price is therefore assessed relative to adaptive, condition-aware trailing boundaries rather than static stop levels.
Conceptual Framework
Adaptive ML Trailing Stop is founded on the idea that effective risk control depends on regime context rather than price location alone.
Conventional trailing mechanisms apply constant volatility multipliers, which often results in trend suppression or delayed exits. This framework replaces static logic with adaptive behavior shaped by efficiency state and observed historical outcomes.
Three core principles guide the design:
Stop distance should adjust in proportion to market efficiency.
Smoothing behavior must respond to regime changes.
Trailing logic benefits from probabilistic context instead of fixed rules.
This shifts trailing stops from rigid exit tools into adaptive, regime-responsive risk boundaries.
Theoretical Foundation
The indicator combines adaptive averaging techniques, volatility-based distance modeling, and similarity-weighted pattern analysis.
Kaufman’s Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA) is used to quantify directional efficiency, allowing smoothing intensity and stop behavior to scale with trend quality. Average True Range (ATR) defines the volatility reference, while a K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) process evaluates historical price patterns to introduce directional weighting when appropriate.
Three internal systems operate in tandem:
KAMA Efficiency Engine : Evaluates directional efficiency to distinguish structured trends from range conditions and modulate smoothing and stop behavior.
Adaptive ATR Stop Engine : Expands or contracts ATR-derived stop distance based on efficiency, tightening during strong trends and widening in low-efficiency environments.
KNN Pattern Influence Layer : Applies distance-weighted historical pattern outcomes to subtly influence stop placement on both sides.
This design allows stop behavior to evolve with market context rather than reacting mechanically to price changes.
How It Works
Adaptive ML Trailing Stop evaluates price through a sequence of adaptive processes:
Efficiency-Based Regime Identification : KAMA efficiency determines whether conditions favor trend continuation or rotational movement, influencing stop sensitivity.
Volatility-Responsive Scaling : ATR-based stop distance adjusts automatically as efficiency rises or falls.
Pattern-Weighted Adjustment : KNN compares recent price sequences to historical analogs, applying confidence-based bias to stop positioning.
Adaptive Stop Smoothing : Long and short stop levels are smoothed using KAMA logic to maintain structural stability while remaining responsive.
Directional Trailing Enforcement : Stops advance only in the direction of the prevailing regime, preserving invalidation structure.
Gradient Distance Visualization : Gradient fills reflect the relative distance between price and the active stop.
Controlled Interaction Markers : Diamond markers highlight meaningful stop interactions, filtered through cooldown logic to reduce clustering.
Together, these elements form a continuously adapting trailing stop system rather than a fixed exit mechanism.
Interpretation
Adaptive ML Trailing Stop should be interpreted as a dynamic risk envelope:
Long Stop (Green) : Acts as the downside invalidation level during bullish regimes, tightening as efficiency improves.
Short Stop (Red) : Serves as the upside invalidation level during bearish regimes, adjusting width based on efficiency and volatility.
Trend State Changes : Regime flips occur only after confirmed stop breaches, filtering temporary price spikes.
Gradient Depth : Deeper gradient penetration indicates increased extension from the stop rather than imminent reversal.
Pattern Influence : KNN weighting affects stop behavior only when historical agreement is strong and remains neutral otherwise.
Distance, efficiency, and context outweigh isolated price interactions.
Signal Logic & Visual Cues
Adaptive ML Trailing Stop presents two primary visual signals:
Trend Transition Circles : Display when price crosses the opposing trailing stop, confirming a regime change rather than anticipating one.
Stop Interaction Diamonds : Indicate controlled contact with the active stop, subject to cooldown filtering to avoid excessive signals.
Alert generation is limited to confirmed trend transitions to maintain clarity.
Strategy Integration
Adaptive ML Trailing Stop fits within trend-following and risk-managed trading approaches:
Dynamic Risk Framing : Use adaptive stops as evolving invalidation levels instead of fixed exits.
Directional Alignment : Base execution on confirmed regime state rather than speculative reversals.
Efficiency-Based Tolerance : Allow greater price fluctuation during inefficient movement while enforcing tighter control during clean trends.
Pattern-Guided Refinement : Let KNN influence adjust sensitivity without overriding core structure.
Multi-Timeframe Context : Apply higher-timeframe efficiency states to inform lower-timeframe stop responsiveness.
Technical Implementation Details
Core Engine : KAMA-based efficiency measurement with adaptive smoothing
Volatility Model : ATR-derived stop distance scaled by regime
Machine Learning Layer : Distance-weighted KNN with confidence modulation
Visualization : Directional trailing stops with layered gradient fills
Signal Logic : Regime-based transitions and controlled interaction markers
Performance Profile : Optimized for real-time chart execution
Optimal Application Parameters
Timeframe Guidance:
1 - 5 min : Tight adaptive trailing for short-term momentum control
15 - 60 min : Structured intraday trend supervision
4H - Daily : Higher-timeframe regime monitoring
Suggested Baseline Configuration:
KAMA Length : 20
Fast/Slow Periods : 15 / 50
ATR Period : 21
Base ATR Multiplier : 2.5
Adaptive Strength : 1.0
KNN Neighbors : 7
KNN Influence : 0.2
These suggested parameters should be used as a baseline; their effectiveness depends on the asset volatility, liquidity, and preferred entry frequency, so fine-tuning is expected for optimal performance.
Parameter Calibration Notes
Use the following adjustments to refine behavior without altering the core logic:
Excessive chop or overreaction : Increase KAMA Length, Slow Period, and ATR Period to reinforce regime filtering.
Stops feel overly permissive : Reduce the Base ATR Multiplier to tighten invalidation boundaries.
Frequent false regime shifts : Increase KNN Neighbors to demand stronger historical agreement.
Delayed adaptation : Decrease KAMA Length and Fast Period to improve responsiveness during regime change.
Adjustments should be incremental and evaluated over multiple market cycles rather than isolated sessions.
Performance Characteristics
High Effectiveness:
Markets exhibiting sustained directional efficiency
Instruments with recurring structural behavior
Trend-oriented, risk-managed strategies
Reduced Effectiveness:
Highly erratic or event-driven price action
Illiquid markets with unreliable volatility readings
Integration Guidelines
Confluence : Combine with BOSWaves structure or trend indicators
Discipline : Follow adaptive stop behavior rather than forcing exits
Risk Framing : Treat stops as adaptive boundaries, not forecasts
Regime Awareness : Always interpret stop behavior within efficiency context
Disclaimer
Adaptive ML Trailing Stop is a professional-grade adaptive risk and regime management tool. It does not forecast price movement and does not guarantee profitability. Results depend on market conditions, parameter selection, and disciplined execution. BOSWaves recommends deploying this indicator within a broader analytical framework that incorporates structure, volatility, and contextual risk management.
SD-Range Oscillator | QuantEdgeBSD-Range Oscillator | QuantEdgeB
🔍 Overview
SD-Range Oscillator | QuantEdgeB (SDRO) is a normalized momentum oscillator that compresses a low-lag trend core into a 0–100 style range using standard-deviation (SD) bands. It builds a smooth baseline from a fast triple-smoothed average, wraps it with ±2×SD volatility bounds, then normalizes the core value inside that envelope. Clear Long/Short regimes trigger when the normalized value crosses user-defined thresholds, with optional labels, regime-colored candles, and intuitive filled zones.

Momentum Echo Oscillator [Community Edition]Concept: The Momentum Echo Oscillator (MEO) is a modern take on classical momentum oscillators. Most indicators only look at the "now". MEO introduces the concept of Momentum Echoes—historical momentum harmonics that are weighted and blended back into the current price velocity.
Why use MEO? Standard momentum tools (like ROC or RSI) can be very "jittery" or noisy. By integrating historical echoes, MEO provides a smoother, more rhythmic representation of price flow, making it easier to spot genuine trend reversals.
Key Elements:
Primary Momentum: The immediate speed of price.
Echo Harmonics: Two adjustable lookback points that act as a "memory" for the indicator, filtering out false breakouts.
Dynamic Histogram: Visualizes the gap between the Echo Engine and the Trigger Line, highlighting acceleration and deceleration.
Settings:
Echo Weight: Adjust how much "memory" you want the indicator to have.
Smoothing: Clean up the signals for higher timeframes.

TwinSmooth ATR Bands | QuantEdgeBTwinSmooth ATR Bands | QuantEdgeB
🔍 Overview
TwinSmooth ATR Bands | QuantEdgeB is a dual-smoothing, ATR-adaptive trend filter that blends two complementary smoothing engines into a single baseline, then builds dynamic ATR bands around it to detect decisive breakouts. When price closes above the upper band it triggers a Long regime; when it closes below the lower band it flips to Short—otherwise it stays neutral. The script enhances clarity with regime-colored candles, an active-band fill, and an optional on-chart backtest table.
✨ Key Features
1. 🧠 Twin-Smooth Baseline (Dual Engine Blend)
- Computes two separate smoothed baselines (a slower “smooth” leg + a faster “responsive” leg).
- Blends them into a single midpoint baseline for balanced stability + speed.
- Applies an extra EMA smoothing pass to produce a clean trend_base.
2. 📏 ATR Volatility Bands
- Builds upper/lower bands using ATR × multiplier around the trend_base.
- Bands expand in volatile conditions and contract when markets quiet down—auto-adapting without manual tweaks.
3. ⚡ Clear Breakout Regime Logic
- Long when close > upperBand.
- Short when close < lowerBand.
- Neutral otherwise (no forced signals inside the band zone).
4. 🎨 Visual Clarity
- Plots only the active band (lower band in long regime, upper band in short regime).
- Fills between active band and price for instant regime context.
- Colors candles to match the current state (bullish / bearish / neutral).
- Multiple color palettes + transparency control.
💼 Use Cases
• Trend Confirmation Filter: Use the regime as a higher-confidence trend gate for entries from other indicators.
• Breakout/Breakdown Trigger: Trade closes outside ATR bands to catch momentum expansions.
• Volatility-Aware Stops/Targets: Bands naturally reflect volatility, making them useful as adaptive reference levels.
• Multi-Timeframe Alignment: Confirm higher-timeframe regime before executing on lower timeframes.
🎯 For Who
• Trend Traders who want clean regime shifts without constant whipsaw.
• Breakout Traders who prefer confirmation via ATR expansion rather than raw MA crossovers.
• System Builders needing a simple, robust “state engine” (Long / Short / Neutral) to plug into larger strategies.
• Analysts who want quick on-chart validation with a backtest table.
⚙️ Default Settings

Market Acceptance Zones [Interakktive]Market Acceptance Zones (MAZ) identifies statistical price acceptance — areas where the market reaches agreement and price rotates rather than trends.
Unlike traditional support/resistance tools, MAZ does not assume where price "should" react. Instead, it highlights regions where multiple internal conditions confirm balance: directional efficiency drops, effort approximately equals result, volatility contracts, and participation remains stable.
This is a market-state diagnostic tool, not a signal generator.
█ WHAT THE ZONES REPRESENT
MAZ (ATF) — Chart Timeframe Acceptance
A MAZ marks an area where price displayed rotational behaviour and the auction temporarily agreed on value. These zones often act as compression regions, fair-price areas, or boundaries of consolidation where impulsive follow-through is less likely.
Use ATF MAZs to:
- Identify rotational environments
- Avoid chasing price inside balance
- Frame consolidation prior to expansion
MAZ • HTF / MAZ • 2/3 — Multi-Timeframe Acceptance (AMTF)
When Multi-Timeframe mode is enabled, MAZ evaluates acceptance on:
- The chart timeframe
- Two higher structural timeframes
If the minimum consensus threshold is met (default: 2 of 3), the zone is classified as AMTF. These zones represent stronger agreement and typically decay more slowly than single-timeframe acceptance.
AMTF zones are structurally stronger and are useful for:
- Higher-quality rotation areas
- Pullback framing within trends
- Context alignment across timeframes
H • MAZ — Historic Acceptance Zones
Historic MAZs represent older acceptance that has transitioned out of active relevance. These zones are hidden by default and can be enabled to provide long-term memory context.
█ AUTO MULTI-TIMEFRAME LOGIC
When MTF Mode is set to Auto, MAZ uses a deterministic structural mapping based on the current chart timeframe:
- 5m → 15m + 1H
- 15m → 1H + 4H
- 1H → 4H + 1D
- 4H → 1D + 1W
- 1D → 1W + 1M
This ensures consistent higher-timeframe context without manual configuration. Advanced users may switch to Manual mode to define custom timeframes.
█ ZONE LIFECYCLE
MAZ zones are dynamic and maintain an internal lifecycle:
- Active — Acceptance remains relevant
- Aging — Acceptance quality is degrading
- Historic — Retained only for memory context
Zones track price interaction and re-acceptance, which can stabilise or strengthen them. Weak or stale zones are automatically removed to keep the chart clean.
█ HOW TRADERS USE MAZ
MAZ is designed to provide structure, not entries.
Common applications include:
- Avoiding chop when price is inside acceptance
- Framing expansion after clean breaks from MAZ
- Identifying higher-quality rotational pullbacks (AMTF zones)
- Defining objective invalidation using zone boundaries

This indicator focuses on visual clarity, consistent color mapping, and optional MTF EMA projection, allowing traders to read market structure without clutter or signal noise.
It is not an entry or signal generator, but a trend and regime visualization tool.
🔹 Logic
The script plots a fixed set of EMAs commonly used to define short-term momentum, intermediate trend, and long-term bias:
EMA 5
EMA 10
EMA 25
EMA 50
EMA 75
EMA 200
Each EMA is calculated using the standard exponential moving average formula.
If a higher timeframe is selected, the EMA is calculated on that timeframe and projected onto the current chart using request.security().
🔹 Methodology
Users may select:
Source price (default: close)
EMA timeframe
Empty = current chart timeframe
Any higher timeframe = true MTF EMA projection
All EMA colors are manually matched and fixed to maintain visual consistency across markets and timeframes.
Line thickness is kept uniform to avoid visual hierarchy bias.
This design ensures the indicator remains purely structural, without repainting logic, smoothing tricks, or adaptive parameters.
🔹 How to Use
Use EMA alignment and spacing to assess:
Trend direction
Trend strength
Compression vs expansion
Higher-timeframe EMA projection can be used as:
Dynamic support/resistance
Trend filter
Regime context for lower-timeframe execution
This indicator works best when combined with:
Price action
Market structure
Separate entry/exit logic of your own system
⚠️ This indicator does not provide buy/sell signals and should not be used alone for trade execution.
🔹 Notes
No repainting beyond standard MTF behavior
No performance or profitability claims
Designed for discretionary and systematic traders
Suitable for stocks, crypto, forex, and indices
Delta Volume Bubble [Quant Z-Score] by tncylyvDelta/Volume Bubble by tncylyv
This indicator is a quantitative order flow tool designed to visualize statistically significant volume and delta anomalies directly on the price chart. By moving away from raw, noisy volume numbers and utilizing Z-Score (Standard Score) statistics, this tool adapts to changing market volatility to highlight areas of heavy institutional interest or exhaustion.
It combines statistical analysis with Price Action concepts (Effort vs. Result) to detect "Absorption"—market conditions where high volume occurs with very little price movement.
1. Core Concepts & Methodology
A. Adaptive Z-Score (The "Quant" Logic)
Raw volume data is often difficult to interpret because volume fluctuates wildly between sessions (e.g., the Asian session typically has lower volume than the New York Open).
Instead of using a fixed volume threshold (e.g., "Alert me if volume > 1000"), this script calculates the Z-Score.
It measures how many Standard Deviations (
σ
) the current volume is from the historical average.
Significance: A Z-Score of +2.0 or higher puts the current candle in the top 5% of statistical occurrences, filtering out noise and highlighting true anomalies.
B. Absorption Detection (Effort vs. Result)
This feature identifies "Trapped Traders."
The Logic: If the Z-Score indicates extremely high volume (High Effort), but the price candle has a very small body (Low Result), it implies that aggressive market orders are being absorbed by passive limit orders.
Visual: These specific anomalies can be highlighted with a unique halo effect, signaling a potential reversal or stop-hunt area.
C. Intra-Bar True VWAP (Smart Placement)
Standard indicators usually plot symbols at the High, Low, or Close of a candle.
This script utilizes request.security_lower_tf to analyze the Lower Timeframe (LTF) structure of the specific bar.
It calculates the exact Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) of that single candle.
Benefit: The bubble is drawn exactly where the heaviest volume occurred inside the candle, providing a more accurate level for future Support/Resistance tests.
2. Key Features
Dual Data Modes: Switch seamlessly between Volume Delta (Buying vs. Selling pressure) or standard Total Volume.
Dynamic Sizing: Bubble sizes (Small, Medium, Large) scale automatically based on the intensity of the Z-Score.
Absorption Logic: Automatically flags candles where volume is high but price progression is stalled.
Adaptive Visuals: Colors and opacity can fade dynamically based on the strength of the signal, or remain solid based on user preference.
Alert System: Fully configurable alerts for Z-Score breakouts and Absorption detection.
3. How to Use
This tool is best used to identify Reversals and Breakout Validation.
Trend Exhaustion (Climax):
If price is trending up and a large "Bullish" bubble appears at the highs with a long upper wick or small body (Absorption), it may indicate buying exhaustion and passive selling.
Breakout Confirmation:
If price breaks a key support/resistance level accompanied by a Large Bubble (High Z-Score), it confirms institutional backing for the move.
Support/Resistance Defense:
The "True VWAP" location of the bubble often acts as a re-test level. If price retraces to the center of a previous large bubble, observe for a reaction.
4. Settings Guide
Data Settings
Calculation Source: Choose between Volume Delta (Up/Down tick analysis) or Regular Volume.
Lower TF Granularity: The timeframe used to calculate the specific "True VWAP" location inside the bar (e.g., 1S or 1M).
Statistical Lookback: The number of bars used to calculate the baseline Average and Standard Deviation (Default: 60).
Quant Logic
Calculation Mode:
Adaptive (Z-Score): Triggers based on relative statistical anomalies (Recommended).
Fixed: Triggers based on raw volume numbers.
Z-Score Threshold: The sensitivity level. 2.0 is standard; higher values (e.g., 3.0) will show fewer, more extreme signals.
Absorption Logic
Detect Absorption: Enables the calculation for small-bodied high-volume candles.
Absorption Ratio: Defines how "small" the body must be relative to the average to qualify as absorption (0.1 to 1.0).
Visuals
Theme: Switch between Dark (Mint/Coral) and Light (Royal/Sunset) themes.
Scale Size: If enabled, bubbles grow larger as the Z-Score increases.
Glow Effect: Adds a neon glow for better visibility on dark backgrounds.

MACD-v Bullish/Bearish DivergenceMACD-v Bullish/Bearish Divergence
Overview This indicator is a specialized divergence detector based on the MACD-v (Volatility Normalized Momentum) concept. Unlike standard MACD which uses absolute price differences, MACD-v normalizes values against volatility (ATR), allowing for fixed, universal Overbought/Oversold thresholds across all assets and timeframes.
Recommendation: This script is highly effective when paired with the original MACD-v by Alex Spiroglou. While this indicator focuses on identifying and visualizing divergence entries, using the original oscillator alongside it provides the best visual context for the overall momentum structure.
How It Works
This tool uses a dual-signal mechanism (Raw Line + Signal Smooth) to identify specific divergence setups:
Setup (Yellow/Blue Dots): Identifies when price momentum has extended significantly into extreme zones (Overbought/Oversold).
Trigger (Red/Green Dots): Fires when price fails to make a new momentum extreme despite price action (classic divergence/failure swing).
Active State (Background Color): Once a trigger fires, the background highlights (Red for Bearish, Green for Bullish) to indicate an active divergence play.
Reset (Exit): The signal state clears when momentum returns to the neutral "safe zone."
Important Note: Momentum Washout
The colored background persists as long as the divergence trade remains valid. Traders should note the concept of "Momentum Washout":
Signal End: The background color turns off when the MACD returns to the neutral range, indicating the primary high-velocity impulse is over.
Performance Continuation: Significant positive or negative price performance can often continue even after the background signal ends. This period allows the remaining momentum to "wash out" or drift before the next major impulse.
Strategy Tip: The indicator is designed to capture the high-volatility portion of the reversal. Do not assume the end of the signal is the absolute top or bottom of the trend; it simply marks the normalization of momentum.
Strategy Recommendation: Multi-Timeframe Analysis
Divergence signals are most powerful when confirmed across timeframes. It is highly recommended to look for alignment before taking a trade:
Trend Confirmation: If you see a signal on a lower timeframe (e.g., 5m or 15m), check a higher timeframe (e.g., 1H or 4H). A bullish divergence on the 5m is significantly more reliable if the 1H momentum is already bullish or oversold.
Signal Stacking: Valid signals often appear sequentially—first on the 1m, then the 5m, and finally the 15m. Waiting for this "cascade" can filter out false reversals.
Visual Guide
🔵 Blue Dot: Bullish Divergence Setup (Watch for entry).
🟢 Green Dot: Bullish Divergence Trigger (Long Entry).
🟡 Yellow Dot: Bearish Divergence Setup (Watch for entry).
🔴 Red Dot: Bearish Divergence Trigger (Short Entry).
Background Color: Indicates an active trade (Red = Bearish / Green = Bullish).
Settings
Auto-Detect: Automatically switches between Scalping settings (tighter thresholds) for low timeframes and Swing settings for high timeframes.
Strict Invalidation: If enabled, cancels a setup if momentum pushes too far in the opposite direction before triggering.
Active Signal Multiplier: Dynamically smooths the signal line only when a trade is active to prevent premature exits during choppy corrections.
Disclaimer: This tool is for educational purposes and trend analysis only. Always manage your risk appropriately.
Advanced Multi-Level S/R ZonesAdvanced Multi-Level S/R Zones: The Comprehensive Guide
1. Introduction: The Evolution of Support & Resistance:
Support and Resistance (S/R) is the backbone of technical analysis. However, traditional methods of drawing these levels are often plagued by subjectivity. Two traders looking at the same chart will often draw two different lines. Furthermore, standard indicators often treat every price point equally, ignoring the critical context of Volume and Time.
The Advanced Multi-Level S/R Zones script represents a paradigm shift. It moves away from subjective line drawing and toward Quantitative Zoning. By utilizing statistical measures of variability (Standard Deviation, MAD, IQR) combined with Volume-Weighting and Time-Decay algorithms, this tool identifies where price is mathematically most likely to react. It treats S/R not as thin lines, but as dynamic zones of probability.
2. Core Logic and Mathematical Foundation:
To understand how to use this tool optimally, one must understand the "engine" under the hood. The script operates on four distinct pillars of logic:
A. Session-Based Data Collection:
The script does not look at every single tick. Instead, it aggregates data into "Sessions" (daily bars by default logic). It extracts the High, Low, and Total Volume for every session within the user-defined lookback period. This filters out intraday noise and focuses on the macro structure of the market.
B. Adaptive Statistical Variability:
Most Bollinger Band-style indicators use Standard Deviation (StdDev) to measure width. However, StdDev is heavily influenced by outliers (extreme wicks). This script offers a sophisticated Adaptive Method-Skewness Detection: The script calculates the skewness of the price distribution. Adaptive Selection: If the data is highly skewed (lots of outliers, typical in Crypto), it switches to MAD (Median Absolute Deviation). MAD is robust and ignores outliers. If the data is moderately skewed, it uses IQR (Interquartile Range). If the data is normal (Gaussian), it uses StdDev.
Benefit: This ensures the zone widths are accurate regardless of whether you are trading a stable Forex pair or a volatile Altcoin.
C. The Weighting Engine (Volume + Time)
Not all price history is equal. This script assigns a "Weight Score" to every session based on two factors:
Volume Weighting: Sessions with massive volume (institutional activity) are given higher importance. A high formed on low volume is less significant than a high formed on peak volume.
Time Decay: Recent price action is more relevant than price action from 50 bars ago. The script applies a decay factor (default 0.85). This means a session from yesterday has 100% impact, while a session from 10 days ago has significantly less influence on the zone calculation.
D. Clustering Algorithm
Once the data is weighted, the script runs a clustering algorithm. It looks for price levels where multiple session Highs (for Resistance) or Lows (for Support) congregate.
It requires a minimum number of points to form a zone (User Input: minPoints).
It merges nearby levels based on the Cluster Separation Factor.
This results in "Primary," "Secondary," and "Tertiary" zones based on the strength and quantity of data points in that cluster.
3. Detailed Features and Inputs Breakdown:
Group 1: Main Settings
Lookback Sessions (Default: 10): Defines how far back the script looks for pivots. A higher number (e.g., 50) creates long-term structural zones. A lower number (e.g., 5) creates short-term scalping zones.
Variability Method (Adaptive): As described above, leave this on "Adaptive" for the best results across different assets.
Zone Width Multiplier (Default: 0.75): Controls the vertical thickness of the zones. Increase this to 1.0 or 1.5 for highly volatile assets to ensure you catch the wicks.
Minimum Points per Zone: The strictness filter. If set to 3, a price level must be hit 3 times within the lookback to generate a zone. Higher numbers = fewer, but stronger zones.
Group 2: Weighting
Volume-Weighted Zones: Crucial for identifying "Smart Money" levels. Keep this TRUE.
Time Decay: Ensures the zones update dynamically. If price moves away from a level for a long time, the zone will fade in significance.
ATR-Normalized Zone Width: This is a dynamic volatility filter. If TRUE, the zone width expands and contracts based on the Average True Range. This is vital for maintaining accuracy during market breakouts or crashes.
Group 3: Zone Strength & Scoring
The script calculates a "Score" (0-100%) for every zone based on:
-Point Count: More hits = higher score.
-Touches: How many times price wicked into the zone recently.
-Intact Status: Has the zone been broken?
-Weight: Volume/Time weight of the constituent points.
-Track Zone Touches: Looks back n bars to see how often price respected this level.
-Touch Threshold: The sensitivity for counting a "touch."
Group 4: Visuals & Display
Extend Bars: How far to the right the boxes are drawn.
Show Labels: Displays the Score, Tier (Primary/Secondary), and Status (Retesting).
Detect Pivot Zones (Overlap): This is a killer feature. It detects where a Support Zone overlaps with a Resistance Zone.
Significance: These are "Flip Zones" (Old Resistance becomes New Support). They are colored differently (Orange by default) and represent high-probability entry areas.
Group 5: Signals & Alerts
Entry Signals: Plots Buy/Sell labels when price rejects a zone.
Detect Break & Retest: specifically looks for the "Break -> Pullback -> Bounce" pattern, labeled as "RETEST BUY/SELL".
Proximity Alert: Triggers when price gets within x% of a zone.
4. Understanding the Visuals (Interpreting the Chart)
When you load the script, you will see several visual elements. Here is how to read them:
The Boxes (Zones)
Red Shades: Resistance Zones.
Dark Red (Solid Border): Primary Resistance. The strongest wall.
Lighter Red (Dashed Border): Secondary/Tertiary. Weaker, but still relevant.
Green Shades: Support Zones.
Dark Green (Solid Border): Primary Support. The strongest floor.
Orange Boxes: Pivot Zones. These are areas where price has historically reacted as both support and resistance. These are the "Line in the Sand" for trend direction.
The Labels & Emojis
The script assigns emojis to zone strength:
🔥 (Fire): Score > 80%. A massive level. Expect a strong reaction.
⭐ (Star): Score > 60%. A solid structural level.
✓ (Check): Score > 40%. A standard level.
"⟳ RETESTING": Appears when a zone was broken, and price is currently pulling back to test it from the other side.
The Dashboard (Top Right)
A statistics table provides a "Head-Up Display" for the asset:
High/Low σ (Sigma): The variability of the highs and lows. If High σ is much larger than Low σ, it implies the tops are erratic (wicks) while bottoms are clean (flat).
Method: Shows which statistical method the Adaptive engine selected (e.g., "MAD (auto)").
ATR: Current volatility value used for normalization.
5. Strategies for Optimum Output
To get the most out of this script, you should not just blindly follow the lines. Use these specific strategies:
Strategy A: The "Zone Fade" (Range Trading)
This works best in sideways markets.
Identify a Primary Support (Green) and Primary Resistance (Red).
Wait for price to enter the zone.
Look for the "SUPPORT BOUNCE" or "RESISTANCE REJECTION" signal label.
Entry: Enter against the zone (Buy at support, Sell at resistance).
Stop Loss: Place just outside the zone width. Because the zones are calculated using volatility stats, a break of the zone usually means the trade is invalid.
Strategy B: The "Pivot Flip" (Trend Following)
This is the highest probability setup in trending markets.
Look for an Orange Pivot Zone.
Wait for price to break through a Resistance Zone cleanly.
Wait for the price to return to that zone (which may now turn Orange or act as Support).
Look for the "RETEST BUY" label.
Logic: Old resistance becoming new support is a classic sign of trend continuation. The script automates the detection of this exact geometric phenomenon.
Strategy C: The Volatility Squeeze
Look at the Dashboard. Compare High σ and Low σ.
If the values are dropping rapidly or becoming very small, the zones will contract (become narrow).
Narrow zones indicate a "Squeeze" or compression in price.
Prepare for a violent breakout. Do not fade (trade against) narrow zones; look to trade the breakout.
6. Optimization & Customization Guide
Different markets require different settings. Here is how to tune the script:
For Crypto & Volatile Stocks (Tesla, Nvidia)
Method: Set to Adaptive (Mandatory, as these assets have "Fat Tails").
Multiplier: Increase to 1.0 - 1.25. Crypto wicks are deep; you need wider zones to avoid getting stopped out prematurely.
Lookback: 20-30 sessions. Crypto has a long memory; short lookbacks generate too much noise.
For Forex (EURUSD, GBPJPY)
Method: You can force StdDev or IQR. Forex is more mean-reverting and Gaussian.
Multiplier: Decrease to 0.5 - 0.75. Forex levels are often very precise to the pip.
Volume Weighting: You may turn this OFF for Forex if your broker's volume data is unreliable (since Forex has no centralized volume), though tick volume often works fine.
For Scalping (1m - 15m Timeframes)
Lookback: Decrease to 5-10. You only care about the immediate session history.
Decay Factor: Decrease to 0.5. You want the script to forget about yesterday's price action very quickly.
Touch Lookback: Decrease to 20 bars.
For Swing Trading (4H - Daily Timeframes)
Lookback: Increase to 50.
Decay Factor: Increase to 0.95. Structural levels from weeks ago are still highly relevant.
Min Points: Increase to 3 or 4. Only show levels that have been tested multiple times.
7. Advantages Over Standard Tools:
Feature Standard S/R Indicator, Advanced Multi-Level S/R Calculation, Uses simple Pivots or Fractals, Uses Statistical Distributions (MAD/IQR). Zone Width Arbitrary or Fixed Adaptive based on Volatility & ATR.
Context Ignores Volume Volume Weighted (Smart Money tracking).
Time Relevance Old levels = New levels Time Decay (Recency bias applied).
Overlaps Usually ignores overlaps Detects Pivot Zones (Res/Sup Flip).
Scoring None 0-100% Strength Score per zone.
8. Conclusion:
The Advanced Multi-Level S/R Zones script is not just a drawing tool; it is a statistical analysis engine. By accounting for the skewness of data, the volume behind the moves, and the decay of time, it provides a strictly objective roadmap of the market structure.
For the optimum output, combine the Pivot Zone identification with the Retest Signals. This aligns you with the underlying flow of order blocks and prevents trading against the statistical probabilities of the market.
Impulsive Trend Detector [dtAlgo]This advanced Pine Script indicator identifies and tracks impulsive price movements based on Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHoCH) concepts from Smart Money trading methodology.
The indicator automatically detects pivot highs and lows, then monitors when price breaks these key levels to signal potential impulsive moves. BOS indicates continuation in the current trend direction, while CHoCH signals potential trend reversals. Each detected move is measured from the break point to the next opposing pivot, providing accurate percentage calculations that match TradingView's measuring tool.
Impulsive moves are categorized into four levels based on magnitude (Level 1: 5-10%, Level 2: 10-15%, Level 3: 15-20%, Level 4: 20%+), with color-coded visual labels and connecting lines displayed directly on the chart.
Comprehensive Session Analysis:
Track moves across 11 distinct trading sessions in Eastern Time: Pre-London/NY, London/NY overlap, NY (with Power Hour and End subdivisions), Sydney, Asia, Sake Time, Asia/London overlap, London, Weekend, and No Session periods.
Three Dynamic Tables provide:
Real-time statistics (bullish/bearish, BOS/CHoCH, levels)
Session breakdown with move counts and average percentages
Event log showing last 10 moves with date, day, session, direction, type, level, percentage, duration, and bar count
Perfect for Smart Money traders seeking data-driven insights into market structure behavior across global trading sessions.

Volume-Weighted Fibonacci PivotThis indicator automatically plots dynamic Fibonacci retracement and extension levels based on a volume-weighted pivot point within a user-defined lookback period or date range. It intelligently calculates a central "pivot" price biased toward high-volume bars, then draws symmetric levels both upward (extensions) and downward (retracements) for balanced confluence analysis.
How It Works (Technical Methodology)
Lookback Period Determination
Multiple filter modes control the data range used for calculations:
"Last X Bars": Fixed number of recent bars (default 400, max 4999).
"Manual Date": User-specified start date.
"Interactive (Chart)": Confirmed start date via input.
"None": Full available history (falls back to max bars).
Optionally, when using "Last X Bars", calculations can pull data from a higher/lower user-selected timeframe via request.security() for multi-timeframe alignment.
A dotted vertical line marks the start point in date-based modes.
Range and Pivot Calculation
Within the selected period:
Highest high and lowest low define the full price range.
Average volume is computed across the period.
Volume-Weighted Pivot: Average close price only from bars where volume > average volume (fallback to simple midpoint if no high-volume bars).
This creates a "smart" central pivot that leans toward areas of greater participation, often aligning with institutional activity.
Fibonacci Level Generation
User-configurable ratios (default: 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, 1.0, 1.272, 1.414, 1.618).
Levels are calculated symmetrically around the volume-weighted pivot:
Upward: Pivot + (Range × Ratio × Correction Factor) – teal/cyan shades.
Downward: Pivot - (Range × Ratio × Correction Factor) – red shades.
Correction Factor (default 0.5): Scales level spacing for tighter/wider grids without altering ratios.
Only the user-defined number of active lines (default 9) are drawn.
Visual Construction
Central Pivot Line: Thick yellow horizontal line with label showing exact price.
Up/Down Levels: Dashed lines extended into the future, labeled with ratio direction ("Up" or "Dn").
All objects redraw only on the last bar for performance, clearing previous drawings.
Multi-Timeframe Option
When enabled with "Last X Bars":
Pulls high/low/volume data from specified timeframe.
Aligns the pivot and levels to higher-timeframe structure while displaying on current chart – ideal for intraday traders seeking HTF confluence.
How to Use
This tool provides clean, volume-aware Fibonacci grids for identifying potential support/resistance, reversal zones, and targets.
Volume-Weighted Pivot: Often acts as a strong mean reversion level or fair value area.
Upward Levels (Teal): Potential resistance/extensions in bullish moves; watch for reactions on retests.
Downward Levels (Red): Potential support/retracements in bearish moves.
Confluence: High probability when price reacts at levels aligning with other tools (order blocks, pivots, volume profile).
Correction Factor: Lower values (<0.5) for tighter grids in ranging markets; higher (>0.5) for trending markets.
Multi-Timeframe Mode: Use on lower charts (e.g., 15m) with HTF input (e.g., 4H or Daily) to project major structure levels.
Common Setups:
Pullbacks to 0.618–0.786 zones for continuation entries.
Breaks beyond 1.0–1.618 for extension targets.
Reactions near pivot line for mean reversion trades.
Adjust ratios and active line count to match your preferred Fibonacci style (classic retracement vs. extensions).

4MA / 4MA[1] Forward Projection with 4 SD Forecast Bands4MA / 4MA Projection + 4 SD Bands + Cross Table is a forward-projection tool built around a simple moving average pair: the 4-period SMA (MA4) and its 1-bar lagged value (MA4 ). It takes a prior MA behavior pattern, projects that structure forward, and wraps the projected mean path with four Standard Deviation (SD) bands to visualize probable future price ranges.
This indicator is designed to help you anticipate:
Where the MA structure is likely to travel next
How wide the “expected” future price corridor may be
Where a future MA4 vs MA4 crossover is most likely to occur
When the real (live) crossover actually prints on the chart
What you see on the chart
1) Live moving averages (current market)
MA4 tracks the short-term mean of price.
MA4 is simply the previous bar’s MA4 value (a 1-bar lag).
Their relationship (MA4 above/below MA4 ) gives a clean, minimal read on trend alignment and directional bias.
2) Projected MA path (forward curve)
A forward “ghost” of the MA structure is drawn ahead of price. This projected curve represents the indicator’s best estimate of how the moving average structure may evolve if the market continues to rhyme with the selected historical behavior window.
3) 4 Standard Deviation bands (predictive future price ranges)
Surrounding the projected mean path are four SD envelopes. Think of these as forecast corridors:
Inner bands = tighter “expected” range
Outer bands = wider “stress / extreme” range
These bands are not a guarantee—rather, they’re a structured way to visualize “how far price can reasonably swing” around the projected mean based on observed volatility.
4) Vertical projection lines (most probable cross zone)
Within the projected region you’ll see vertical lines running through the bands. These lines mark the most probable zone where MA4 and MA4 are expected to cross in the projection.
In plain terms:
The projected MAs are two curves.
When those curves are forecasted to intersect, the script marks the intersection region with a vertical line.
This gives you a forward “timing window” for a potential MA shift.
5) Cross Table (top-right)
The table is your confirmation layer. It reports:
Current MA4 value
Current MA4 value
Whether MA4 is above or below MA4
The most recent BUY / SELL cross event
When a real, live crossover happens on the actual chart:
It registers as BUY (MA4 crosses above MA4 )
Or SELL (MA4 crosses below MA4 )
…and the table updates immediately so you can confirm the event without guessing.
How to use it
Practical workflow
Use the projected SD bands as future range context
If price is projected to sit comfortably inside inner bands, the market is behaving “normally.”
If price reaches outer bands, you’re in a higher-volatility / stretched scenario.
Use vertical lines as a “watch zone”
Vertical lines do not force a trade.
They act like a forward “heads-up”: this is the most likely window for an MA crossover to occur if the projection holds.
Use the table for confirmation
When the crossover happens for real, the table is your confirmation signal.
Combine it with structure (support/resistance, trendlines, market context) rather than trading it in isolation.
Notes and best practices
This is a projection tool: it helps visualize a structured forward hypothesis, not a certainty.
SD bands are best used as forecast corridors (risk framing, range planning, and expectation management).
The table is the execution/confirmation layer: it tells you what the MAs are doing now.
Squeeze + ADX + TTM [V6]Execution speed: The TradingView engine processes v6 scripts much faster.
Stability: By using standard functions like ta.sma or ta.linreg, the indicator is less prone to calculation errors on lower timeframes.
Clarity: I've reorganized the ADX calculation within a function to make it more readable if you decide to modify it later.
Volume + VWAP + Prior Session Levels DashboardVolume Spike + VWAP + Session Levels Dashboard
This indicator is a real-time market context dashboard designed to help traders quickly understand participation, value, and key reference levels without cluttering the chart with multiple indicators.
Instead of plotting lines or signals, the script summarizes critical intraday information into a compact on-chart table, allowing traders to make faster, more informed decisions based on how active the market is, where fair value is, and where important reference levels exist.
Core Concepts Used
This script is built on three widely used market principles:
Relative Volume Participation
Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP)
Prior Session Reference Levels
The indicator does not attempt to predict direction. Its purpose is to provide objective context that traders can combine with their own strategies.
How the Indicator Works
1. Volume Spike Analysis (Relative Volume)
Rather than showing raw volume, the script measures how unusual the current bar’s volume is compared to recent activity.
A moving average of volume is calculated using a user-defined lookback period.
Current volume is divided by this average to produce a volume multiple (for example, 2.0× normal volume).
This multiple is translated into a descriptive strength label, ranging from Below Threshold to Legendary.
This approach helps traders immediately recognize when participation is significantly above normal, which often coincides with institutional activity, breakouts, or important reactions near key levels.
2. Daily VWAP (Current and Prior Day)
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) represents the average price traded, weighted by volume, and is commonly used as a measure of fair value.
This script calculates VWAP internally by:
Accumulating price × volume throughout the day
Dividing by total volume
Automatically resetting at the start of each new trading day
The dashboard displays:
Current day VWAP – real-time session fair value
Prior day VWAP – an important reference from the previous session
Traders often use these levels to evaluate whether price is trading at a premium, discount, or near equilibrium.
3. Previous Day High and Low
The indicator also displays:
Previous day high
Previous day low
These levels frequently act as liquidity targets, support/resistance zones, or reaction points, especially during intraday trading sessions.
Dashboard Design
All information is presented in a two-column dashboard showing:
Metric name
Current value or status
The dashboard can be positioned in any corner of the chart and updates in real time, allowing traders to maintain awareness without constantly switching indicators or timeframes.
How to Use This Indicator
This script is best used as a decision-support tool, not a standalone trading system.
Typical uses include:
Identifying abnormally high volume near important price levels
Evaluating price position relative to VWAP
Monitoring reactions around prior day highs and lows
Staying oriented during fast market conditions without chart clutter
The indicator works on any timeframe and adapts automatically to the instrument’s trading session.
Customization Options
Users can:
Adjust the volume moving average length to define what “normal” volume means
Choose the price source used for VWAP calculation
Change the dashboard’s on-screen position
Summary
The Volume Spike + VWAP + Session Levels Dashboard provides a clear, objective snapshot of market conditions by combining participation, value, and reference levels into a single visual tool. It is designed to help traders answer a simple but critical question:
“Is the market doing something meaningful right now — and where?”
This indicator focuses on context, clarity, and usability for traders who want insight without unnecessary complexity.

CCI Standard DeviationCCI Standard Deviation – Asymmetric Volatility-Adjusted Trend Filter (CCI SD)
The Commodity Channel Index (CCI), created by Donald Lambert in 1980, measures how far the typical price deviates from its statistical average to identify cyclical momentum and trend strength.
The standard formula is:
CCI = (Typical Price − SMA(Typical Price, n)) / (0.015 × Mean Deviation)
where Typical Price = (High + Low + Close)/3.
CCI is unbounded and centered around zero: sustained readings above zero indicate bullish momentum, below zero bearish. Classic interpretations often use zero-line crosses or fixed levels (±100, ±200, ±250), but these can be unreliable when CCI volatility changes across market regimes.
This indicator was developed to create a more disciplined trend-following tool that aligns with my core risk principle: “always protect to the downside.”
Starting from the standard CCI zero-line concept for trend direction, I experimented with standard deviation bands to make the oscillator volatility-adjusted. I then applied deliberate asymmetry: requiring the lower 1σ envelope (CCI − stdev) to cross above a positive threshold for bullish confirmation (high-probability entry only in robust trends), while exiting immediately on any raw CCI weakness below a negative threshold (quick downside protection). User inputs for both thresholds were added to allow fine-tuning and adaptability across different assets and timeframes.
An optional DEMA-smoothed version of the lower envelope provides additional clarity when desired.
Extreme zones
raw CCI ±240 and lower envelope > 200 or < –200 - are highlighted with background shading to flag rare acceleration or capitulation phases.
How it works
Standard CCI calculated on typical price (default length 38).
Rolling standard deviation of the CCI itself (default length 13) measures the oscillator’s recent volatility.
Lower envelope = CCI − stdev (dn).
Optional DEMA smoothing (default length 12) can be toggled.
Trend logic:
Bullish regime only when lower envelope
→ Long Threshold (default +10)
→ statistical proof of strength
Bearish/neutral immediately when raw CCI
→ Short Threshold (default –25)
→ fast downside protection
Origin and development
The indicator emerged from wanting a cleaner, more reliable CCI for trend direction. After testing volatility-adjusted versions, the asymmetric design proved superior:
it enters only high-conviction uptrends and exits rapidly on weakness, significantly reducing whipsaws while preserving trend capture.
Parameters were optimized through extensive backtests on major assets (BTC, ETH, SOL and many more Cryptos; Magnificent 7 stocks, QQQ, SPX, gold).
The defaults were selected for the best average Sortino ratio and lowest maximum drawdown across this broad universe, ensuring robustness and avoiding single-asset overfitting.
How to use it
Green triangle below bar
→ lower envelope crosses above Long Threshold
→ high-conviction bullish trend confirmed
→ enter or add to longs
Magenta triangle above bar
→ CCI crosses below Short Threshold
→ exit longs or go cash/short
While lower envelope remains above Long Threshold
→ hold bullish positions
Extreme background shading (dn >200 or CCI ±240)
→ rare high-attention zones (potential acceleration or exhaustion)
Recommended defaults
CCI length: 38
SD length: 13
Long threshold: +10
Short threshold: –25
Optional MA length: 12 (DEMA of lower envelope)
All visual elements (bar coloring, signals, background, smoothed line) are toggleable for personal preference.
This indicator is designed as a trend-strength and risk-management filter and is not intended as a standalone trading system.
