Smart Money Structure | GainzAlgo📊 OVERVIEW:
================
Smart Money Structure Analysis is a professional-grade market structure and order-flow system designed to identify institutional trading behavior through volatility-adaptive logic, multi-timeframe trend alignment, and volume-based confirmation.
This indicator implements original mathematical models to detect Change of Character (CHoCH), Break of Structure (BOS), cumulative volume dynamics, and trend convergence across seven timeframes — delivering high-probability trade signals with significantly reduced noise.
Unlike basic indicator combinations, this system functions as a unified trading framework, where volatility adaptation, structure analysis, and volume confirmation continuously reinforce each other to provide precise, context-aware signals.
⭐ WHY THIS SYSTEM IS UNIQUE AND WORTHY OF PUBLICATION:
=====================================================
This is not a collection of common indicators placed together.
Smart Money Structure Analysis represents a cohesive institutional methodology, engineered so that:
- Volatility adjusts signal sensitivity in real time
- Multi-timeframe trends define directional bias
- Market structure determines timing
- Volume confirms institutional participation
- Advanced filters eliminate low-quality setups
Each component is mathematically linked to the others, creating a workflow that cannot be replicated by stacking separate indicators.
🔗 SYNERGISTIC INTEGRATION – HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS TOGETHER:
==========================================================
🧠 1. CONTEXT-AWARE VOLATILITY ADAPTATION
ATR-based volatility logic dynamically adjusts all momentum thresholds:
- Higher volatility → stronger confirmation required
- Lower volatility → sensitivity increases to capture valid moves
This prevents over-signaling in choppy markets and under-signaling during expansion phases — a core flaw in static indicators.
📐 2. MULTI-TIMEFRAME TREND CONVERGENCE ENGINE
Seven timeframes are analyzed simultaneously:
1M • 5M • 15M • 30M • 1H • 4H • 1D
Each timeframe is scored using EMA + VWAP alignment, producing a composite Trend Strength Score from -100 to +100.
The stronger the alignment across timeframes, the higher the probability of continuation — instantly visible through the real-time dashboard.
🏗️ 3. INSTITUTIONAL MARKET STRUCTURE (CHoCH & BOS)
The system automatically identifies the two core smart money concepts:
- CHoCH (Change of Character):
Signals potential trend exhaustion or reversal zones
- BOS (Break of Structure):
Confirms trend continuation and institutional commitment
Structure zones are visualized with persistent, color-coded levels and clouds, providing precise contextual timing rather than lagging signals.
📊 4. CUMULATIVE VOLUME DELTA (CVD) CONFIRMATION
CVD tracks the cumulative difference between buying and selling pressure:
- Rising CVD → accumulation
- Falling CVD → distribution
- Divergence vs price → early reversal warning
Volume participation is categorized into Low / Medium / High, adding depth beyond simple volume bars.
🛡️ 5. SIX-LAYER PROFESSIONAL SIGNAL FILTERING
Every signal must pass through up to six independent confirmation layers:
1. Volatility-adjusted momentum
2. Higher timeframe trend alignment
3. Lower timeframe conflict prevention
4. Institutional volume confirmation
5. Structural breakout validation
6. Repeated-signal restriction
This dramatically reduces false positives while preserving only high-quality institutional setups.

Liquidity Zones | NRP | ProjectSyndicate🏦 ProjectSyndicate Liquidity Zones 1.0 — Complete Documentation
Specifically built for: XAUUSD (Gold) 🥇, NQ 💻, ES 📈 and FX 💱 traders
✅Default settings: tuned to work well across multiple timeframes
Best sweet spot timeframes : M5 / M15 / M30 / H1 → consistently produces high-quality zones
________________________________________
🌍 Overview
ProjectSyndicate Liquidity Zones is a Pine Script v6 indicator built to identify stop-loss hunting zones and liquidity pockets—areas where price frequently sweeps retail stops and then reverses.
It automatically detects and draws zones where institutional flow often triggers liquidity before moving price in the opposite direction.
________________________________________
💧 What Are Liquidity Zones?
Liquidity zones are price levels where stop-loss orders cluster (often around swing highs/lows). Large players may push price into these levels to trigger stops (liquidity sweep) and then reverse.
Also known as:
• 🪤 Stop-loss hunting
• 🌊 Liquidity sweeps
• 🎯 Stop runs
________________________________________
🥇 Why Gold, NQ, ES & FX?
These markets often show repeatable liquidity behavior because of:
• 👥 Heavy participation and predictable stop placement
• 🏛️ Strong institutional activity and order flow
• ⚡ Volatility that enables fast “sweep & reverse” moves
• 📍 Clear technical levels where stops tend to cluster
________________________________________
⚙️ How It Works (3 Detection Engines)
1) 🔺 Pivot-Based Detection
Finds swing highs/lows using fractal pivots—natural stop placement zones.
2) 🕯️ Wick Trap Detection
Flags candles with dominant wicks (long rejection shadows), suggesting stops were hit then price snapped back.
3) 📊 Volume Spike Detection
Marks extremes where volume is elevated (local highs/lows). High volume at extremes often signals liquidity being triggered.
________________________________________
🧩 Zone Types
🟦 Bull Liquidity Zones (Teal/Cyan)
• 📍 Below current price (support area)
• 🧠 Indicates buy-side stops were swept (longs got hunted)
• 📈 Often becomes a potential reversal zone upward
• ✅ Idea: Look for bullish confirmation after a sweep
🟥 Bear Liquidity Zones (Maroon/Red)
• 📍 Above current price (resistance area)
• 🧠 Indicates sell-side stops were swept (shorts got hunted)
• 📉 Often becomes a potential reversal zone downward
• ✅ Idea: Look for bearish confirmation after a sweep
⚪ Historic Zones (Gray)
• 🕰️ Zones that were breached
• 📚 Useful for studying past behavior and sweep patterns
• ❗ Not considered “active”, but great for context

Volatility Breakout System [Fixed Risk]
This is a trend-following breakout strategy designed to capture volatility expansion while filtering out low-momentum "chop." It is built on the philosophy that significant price moves are often preceded by a breakout of volatility bands (Keltner Channels) accompanied by Volume and Trend Strength (ADX).
Strategy Logic:
Volatility Breakout: The primary trigger is a candle closing outside the Keltner Channels. This indicates price is moving faster than the average range.
Trend Filter: Trades are only taken in the direction of the 200 EMA.
Momentum Filter (ADX): The ADX filter ensures we only enter when the trend strength is above a specific threshold (Default: 20). This prevents the strategy from buying tops or selling bottoms in ranging markets.
Volume Confirmation: A breakout without volume is often a fake-out. This script requires volume to be higher than the moving average.
Risk Management (Automated):
Stop Loss: Based on ATR (Average True Range) to adapt to current market volatility.
Trailing Stop: Once the trade moves in favor, a trailing stop is activated to lock in profits.
Breakeven: If price moves X% in favor, the Stop Loss is automatically moved to the entry price to protect capital.
Cooldown: Includes a safety mechanism to prevent over-trading immediately after a signal.
Backtesting Notes:
This script is set up with use_bar_magnifier=true. For accurate results, use this on higher timeframes (1H, 4H) or ensure you have a Premium account for intrabar inspection.
Inputs:
You can toggle the "Compounding" feature to test fixed cash vs. % equity growth.
Webhooks are fully configurable for alert automation.
SmartVol SuperTrend | OquantOverview
The SmartVol SuperTrend is an evolution of the traditional SuperTrend indicator. While the standard SuperTrend uses Average True Range (ATR) to calculate volatility bands, this version utilizes Volume-Weighted Standard Deviation (VWSD).
By integrating volume into the volatility calculation, the indicator attempts to filter out "quiet" price movements and reacts more dynamically to price action supported by high trading activity.
How It Works
The script follows a multi-step process to define trend direction:
Smoothing: It applies a 5-period EMA to the source price to reduce minor noise before calculating the bands.
Volume-Weighted Volatility: Instead of a simple Standard Deviation, the script uses a custom volume standard deviation function. It measures the dispersion of price around its Volume Weighted Moving Average (VWMA), weighting each price point's contribution by the volume of that bar.
Recursive Band Logic: Like the classic SuperTrend, the bands are "locked" in place. The lower band can only move up, and the upper band can only move down, until price closes on the opposite side, triggering a trend flip.
Visuals: The script highlights the trend by coloring the candles and the space between the price and the trend line, providing a clear visual of the current market bias.
Usefulness
By using Volume-Weighted Standard Deviation, this indicator accounts for real market activity. Consequently, it expands its bands more aggressively during high-volume breakouts while dampening its reaction to price moves when volume fades, potentially offering more robust band levels anchored to true market participation.
How to Use
Trend Identification: When the line is green and below price, the trend is bullish. When the line is purple and above price, the trend is bearish.
Factor Adjustment: Increase the Factor (default 1.8) to reduce sensitivity and avoid whipsaws in volatile markets. Decrease it for tighter tracking.
EMA Length: Adjust the EMA length to change how much price smoothing is applied before the trend calculation.
Note on Signals
This indicator is designed for trend-following. Like all lagging indicators, it performs best in trending markets and may produce false signals during sideways consolidation.
Settings
Source: The price source used for calculations (default: Close).
EMA Length: The lookback for the initial price smoothing (default: 5).
VWSD Length: The period used to calculate the volume-weighted volatility (default: 30).
Factor: The multiplier applied to the VWSD to determine the distance of the bands (default 1.8).
⚠️ Disclaimer: This indicator is intended for educational and informational purposes only. Trading involves risk, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Always test and evaluate indicators/strategies before applying them in live markets. Use at your own risk.
Filtered Fractals (2-Stage + Alerts)Filtered Fractals
Overview
This indicator is an advanced evolution of the classic Fractal logic (like the WICK.ED or Bill Williams models). Standard fractals are often "noisy," marking every minor local peak or trough, which can lead to false signals in volatile markets.
This script solves the "noise" problem by introducing a Dual-Stage Filtering Process. Instead of displaying every fractal, it treats them as "candidates" and only confirms those that represent a dominant extremum relative to their neighboring fractals.
How It Works
The script operates in two distinct stages to ensure only the most significant structural pivot points are plotted:
Stage 1: Detection
The script identifies "Raw Fractals" based on your preferred sensitivity (Left/Right bars). By default, it uses a 5-bar lookback/lookforward, but these remain hidden from the chart initially.
Stage 2: Sliding Window Competition
The script monitors a rolling sequence of the last three identified fractals. It compares their prices to find the "True Extremum":
For Highs , it compares the 3 most recent fractal peaks.
For Lows , it compares the 3 most recent fractal troughs.
The Point System: Every time a fractal is the "winner" (the highest high or lowest low) within its 3-fractal window, it receives a confirmation point.
The Priority Rule: In cases where two fractals have the exact same price, the script gives priority to the earlier one (the "left" peak), reducing late entries.
Visual Confirmation
A fractal is only plotted on your chart once it achieves two confirmations . This means it has proven to be a significant price extreme compared to both its predecessor and its successor.
Key Features
Noise Reduction: Eliminates "crowded" fractals, leaving only the structural backbone of the trend.
Non-Repainting Logic: The script only processes confirmed closed bars. The current developing candle will never trigger a false fractal or a premature alert.
Smart Alerts: Built-in alert() functionality. You can set a single alert to notify you the exact moment a Bullish or Bearish fractal is confirmed.
Customizable Sensitivity: Adjust the Left/Right Bars in the settings to fit your specific timeframe (e.g., higher values for macro trends, lower for scalping).
How to use
Support/Resistance: Use these filtered fractals to draw more reliable S/R zones.
Stop Loss Placement: Ideal for trailing stops behind truly significant swing points.
Trend Confirmation: A series of higher-high filtered fractals provides a much cleaner view of an uptrend than standard indicators.
Blockcircle FTR - Follow Through ReversalWHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES
Blockcircle FTR identifies failed directional moves followed by quality reversals. The indicator tracks structural pivot levels, monitors price interactions with those levels, and validates reversal sequences against a configurable threshold.
A trend filter provides macro context so you can evaluate whether signals align with or oppose the broader direction.
KEY FEATURES
Reversal quality filtering via delivery threshold requirement
Sweep confirmation when reversals follow liquidity grabs at structural levels
ATR-adaptive origin zones marking reversal starting points
Trend alignment indicator comparing signal bias to moving average direction
Volume validation filter for participation confirmation
Real-time dashboard with signal statistics and alignment status
DETAILED BREAKDOWN
Structural Level Tracking
The indicator identifies pivot highs and lows based on the Structure Lookback parameter. These pivots serve as reference levels where liquidity typically accumulates. Levels remain active until price interacts with them or they exceed the Level Lifespan setting.
When the price reaches a structural level, this interaction is logged. If a reversal then forms in the opposite direction within the Sweep Window, the signal qualifies as sweep-confirmed, indicating that stops were likely triggered before the move reversed.
FTR Detection Logic
The core detection looks for a specific sequence: a directional attempt that fails to follow through, followed by a counter-move that meets the Delivery Threshold ratio. This ratio measures the quality of the reversal relative to the failed move's structure.
Higher threshold values (closer to 1.0) require cleaner, more convincing reversals. Lower values (closer to 0.1) allow weaker setups through. The default of 0.7 provides reasonable filtering without being overly restrictive.
Trend Context Filter
A moving average (EMA or SMA, configurable period) provides simple trend context. The dashboard displays three related metrics:
Trend: Current price position relative to the MA (Bullish/Bearish)
FTR Bias: Direction of the most recent confirmed signal (Long/Short)
Aligned: Whether these two readings match (Yes/No)
This helps identify situations where the FTR bias has become stale or is positioned against the prevailing trend.
Signal Classification
Standard signals appear as small triangles and represent FTR patterns that passed the delivery threshold and any active filters.
Sweep-confirmed signals appear with an "S" label and represent the subset of signals where price swept a structural level shortly before the reversal formed. These carry higher conviction due to the additional liquidity context.
Dashboard Metrics
The information panel provides:
Current trend direction and FTR bias
Alignment status between the two
Bars elapsed since the last signal
Running totals for long and short signals
Sweep-confirmed counts in parentheses
Volume filter status
Configuration Parameters
Structure Lookback: Bars used for pivot detection. Higher values capture more significant swings.
Delivery Threshold: Minimum ratio for valid reversals. Range 0.1 to 1.0.
Level Lifespan: The maximum bars a structural level remains active.
Sweep Window: Lookback period for sweep confirmation.
Trend MA Period: Moving average length for trend context.
Volume Spike Multiple: Required volume ratio when volume filter is active.
Zone Depth: Origin zone width as ATR multiple.
Practical Application
Sweep-confirmed signals with trend alignment represent the highest-conviction setups. These combine a quality reversal pattern, liquidity sweep context, and trend support.
Standard signals without sweep confirmation remain valid FTR patterns but warrant additional discretion.
Counter-trend signals (Aligned showing NO) can still produce valid moves, but historically carry lower probability. Consider position sizing adjustments accordingly.
Origin zones serve as potential support/resistance areas for subsequent price returns.
Important Limitations
The indicator may remain biased in the wrong direction during extended trends if no qualifying reversal pattern forms. The trend filter helps identify these situations, but does not automatically override the FTR bias.
Signal counts are calculated on visible chart history and will vary based on the loaded timeframe and bar count.
As with any technical tool, signals should be evaluated within the broader market context rather than traded mechanically.

Smart Money Volume Index [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This script measures buying and selling interest by comparing how price behaves on rising volume versus falling volume. It separates what is often called “smart money” activity from more passive volume and turns that relationship into a normalized index. The result is an oscillator that shows whether buyers or sellers are in control, how strong that control is, and when interest reaches extreme levels that tend to matter for reversals or continuations.
🟠 CONCEPTS
The calculation starts by splitting volume flow into two streams. Positive Volume Index (PVI) reacts when volume expands, while Negative Volume Index (NVI) reacts when volume contracts. Each stream is detrended with a long EMA and passed through an RSI calculation to express relative pressure. These two RSIs are then compared as ratios to estimate buy-side and sell-side interest. The values are summed over a rolling window and normalized against historical peaks so the output stays bounded and comparable across markets. In simple terms: relative behavior on high-volume vs low-volume bars defines interest , and normalization makes that interest readable over time.
🟠 FEATURES
Two display modes: Compare (separate buy and sell interest) and Net (single combined oscillator)
High-interest threshold zones with visual highlights
Alert conditions for threshold crosses and zero-line shifts
🟠 USAGE
Setup : Add the script to your chart. Choose Net mode for a clean momentum-style read, or Compare mode to see buy and sell interest separately. Start with the default periods, then adjust the Index Period to control how much history is included.
Read the chart : Values above zero mean buy-side interest dominates; below zero means sell-side interest dominates. In Compare mode, the green line tracks buying interest and the red line tracks selling interest. When either side pushes beyond the high-interest threshold, participation is elevated and moves tend to be more meaningful.
Settings that matter : Increasing the Index Period smooths the index and focuses on longer participation trends. Changing the Volume Flow Period alters how sensitive the RSI-based pressure is. The High Interest Threshold controls how selective extreme signals are and directly affects alerts and zone highlights.
Rolling Volume Boxes█ OVERVIEW
Rolling Volume Boxes is an indicator that visualizes high-volume zones on the chart in the form of dynamic volume “boxes.” Each box splits volume into bullish and bearish parts, allowing you to assess the dominance of buyers or sellers.
Thanks to the pseudo-volume option, the indicator can also be used on markets where real volume data is unavailable, although results may slightly differ.
The indicator is also suitable for trend analysis and identifying signs of trend weakening – everything depends on box parameters such as their size, moving average length, and multiplier.
█ CONCEPT
The indicator was created as a universal tool offering a non-standard market perspective. It combines volume analysis with trend structure and dynamic support and resistance levels.
Boxes are built using a rolling window of a fixed number of candles defined by the Bars per Box parameter. For each completed window, the indicator calculates the average volume of the entire group of candles and compares it to the volume moving average multiplied by the selected multiplier. A box is created only when this condition is met, meaning that zones appear exclusively in areas where aggregated volume for the whole box is significantly above average. The volume filter is therefore applied to the complete structure, not to individual candles.
Boxes do not overlap. A new box can be formed only after the previous one has fully ended, which keeps the market structure clean and prevents stacking or repainting. Each box always represents a separate and independent volume event.
Inside every box, candle volume is split into bullish and bearish parts. Green candles assign volume to buyers, while red candles assign volume to sellers. This method does not use classic candle delta, but instead builds a clear picture of dominance inside the zone.
Additionally, a Weighted Center is calculated for each box. It represents the true volume equilibrium level within the zone and often acts as a dynamic reaction point for price.
█ FEATURES
Data source
The indicator can use:
- candle volume
- pseudo volume (candle body size)
Calculations
- volume moving average (SMA)
- volume aggregation into boxes
- bullish / bearish volume split
- Weighted Center calculation
Visualization
- volume boxes (bullish / bearish)
- box boundary lines (high / low), extended to the right and removed after breakout
- dashed Weighted Center line, removed after breakout or after a defined number of bars
- labels showing bullish and bearish percentages
- graphical breakout signals
Alerts
- Box Breakout Up
- Box Breakout Down
- Weighted Center Up
- Weighted Center Down
█ HOW TO USE
Adding the indicator
Paste the code into Pine Editor or search for “Rolling Volume Boxes.”
Main settings
- Bars per Box – number of candles per box
- SMA Length – volume moving average length
- Multiplier – zone detection sensitivity
- Use Pseudo Volume – enable pseudo volume
- Show Labels – percentage labels
Key elements are box boundary lines and the Weighted Center line. They are extended to the right, disappear automatically after price breaks them, and act as dynamic market reaction levels.
█ APPLICATION
High-volume zones
Box levels often later become natural support and resistance levels.
Consolidations and ranges
With larger boxes, their boundaries often define the price range. If no breakout occurs for several candles after a box is formed, the probability of sideways movement increases – range trading may be considered.
Breakout trading
Breaking the upper or lower box boundary may signal:
- trend continuation
- the start of a new impulse
Trend analysis
In a strong trend, the internal structure of boxes helps detect decreasing dominance of one side and increasingly balanced proportions, which often acts as an early warning of trend weakening.
Combining with other tools
The indicator works best together with:
- trend indicators
- price levels (pivots, S/R)
- momentum oscillators
Example
- price approaches resistance + momentum weakens
→ in this situation, it is worth considering whether to open a position in line with the dominant trend or, alternatively, wait for a potential trend reversal
█ NOTES
- on markets without volume data, enable pseudo volume
- not a standalone trading indicator
- best results are achieved when used in market context
This indicator may not work properly on certain markets, especially on indices, synthetic instruments and all assets where volume and candle data are aggregated or artificially constructed (e.g. market cap indices, CFD, composite tickers).
In such cases, volume does not reflect real market activity and candles are not based on actual transactions, which makes the boxes lose their analytical value and potentially become misleading.

Confusion Candles (CONF)
These classifications help traders identify high-probability turning points, trend continuation, and market indecision.
🧬 1. Rejection Candles (STR-REJ)
A rejection candle shows a strong rejection of price in one direction.
It occurs when the candle has a long wick and small body, signaling a strong rejection from buyers or sellers.
✅ How to Use Rejection
Buy Setup:
When a green rejection candle forms near support, it indicates buyers rejected lower prices.
Sell Setup:
When a red rejection candle forms near resistance, it indicates sellers rejected higher prices.
🎯 Profit Tip
Use rejection candles for mean reversion trades (price bouncing back after rejection).
Rejection candles near major support/resistance zones have the highest win rate.
🧠 2. Dominance Candles (DOM)
Dominance candles show strong market control.
They have very large bodies and minimal wick, indicating clear bullish or bearish control.
✅ How to Use Dominance
Buy Setup:
A green dominance candle near support indicates strong bullish control.
Sell Setup:
A red dominance candle near resistance indicates strong bearish control.
🎯 Profit Tip
Dominance candles are excellent for trend continuation trades.
When a dominance candle breaks a key level, the market often follows strongly.
🤝 3. Confusion Candles (CONF)
Confusion candles show indecision in the market.
They have small bodies and almost equal wicks on both sides.
✅ How to Use Confusion
Confusion candles usually appear before big moves.
They indicate the market is deciding its next direction.
🎯 Profit Tip
When CONF appears near support/resistance, wait for the next candle to confirm direction.
📍 Support & Resistance Filter
The indicator only produces strong signals near:
Support zones (low is near 20-period low)
Resistance zones (high is near 20-period high)
This increases the accuracy by filtering out weak signals.
⚠️ Sideways Market Filter
The indicator avoids trading in sideways markets using ATR.
✅ This means:
It only trades when the market has enough momentum
Avoids choppy price action and false signals
🧩 How to Increase Profits Using This Indicator
✔️ Best Profit Strategy
Use the indicator with multiple confirmation steps:
Step 1: Wait for a Strong Signal
STR-REJ or DOM at support/resistance
Step 2: Confirm Trend Direction

Flexible S/R Channels🟩 Flexible S/R Channels is a visualization tool that draws curved support and resistance boundaries through user-defined anchor points. Unlike traditional trendlines and channels that force linear interpretation onto price action, this indicator captures the curved structures that markets frequently form—rounded tops and bottoms, parabolic advances and declines, arcing rallies and pullbacks. Three anchor points per curve define the shape; the indicator fits a smooth mathematical curve through these points and projects it forward. The approach is simple: draw what you see. Curved market structure that resists precise definition with traditional tools can now be rendered with mathematical accuracy.
The indicator bridges the gap between static drawing tools and programmable indicators. TradingView's arc tool draws curves but produces only visual pixels with no analytical value. Flexible S/R Channels creates live data series that integrate with other analysis tools. Four curve-fitting methods—Quadratic, Quadratic-Linear, Weighted Linear, and Natural Cubic Spline—accommodate different market structures. The curved levels naturally lend themselves to breakout and reversion strategies—applications left to the trader's discretion. The open-source code invites experimentation and customization.
💡 THEORY AND CONCEPT 💡
Traders have long relied on horizontal levels and diagonal trendlines to define support and resistance. Linear tools assume constant slope—a property rarely exhibited by actual market movement. When momentum accelerates or decelerates, price trajectories curve rather than hold to fixed angles. The resulting structures—parabolic advances during expansion phases, arcing pullbacks during consolidation, rounded formations at reversal points—represent changes in the rate of change itself. Traditional drawing tools cannot accommodate this variable geometry without sacrificing mathematical precision..
Flexible S/R Channels extends familiar support and resistance concepts into curved space. The approach is simple: draw what you see. When the eye recognizes a curved boundary in price action, this indicator provides the means to define it precisely. Three anchor points per curve—an initial point, an intermediate point, and a recent point—are all that is required. The indicator fits a smooth mathematical curve through these points and extends it forward as a projection.
This indicator represents a blend of human pattern recognition and algorithmic precision. Fully automated indicators make decisions without user input—efficient but detached from trader discretion. Manual drawing tools rely entirely on freehand skill—expressive but imprecise. Flexible S/R Channels occupies the middle ground. The trader identifies the curved structure; the algorithm renders it mathematically. The result is human insight expressed with computational accuracy—for traders who recognize curved structure in price action but lack precise tools to define it.
This projection is not a prediction. It is a visual hypothesis—a structured way of asking "if this trajectory continues, where would price be?" The underlying assumption is simple: like Newton's first law of motion, a trajectory in motion tends to continue unless acted upon by an external force. Future price action validates or invalidates the projection, just as it does with any trendline or channel.
TradingView offers an arc drawing tool for freehand curved lines, but these are purely visual—static pixels on a screen with no programmable value. Flexible S/R Channels bridges this gap. The fitted curves exist as data series that can generate alerts, trigger signals, and interact with other analysis tools. The visual drawing becomes operational structure.
🔁 CURVE METHODS 🔁
The indicator offers four curve-calculation methods, each producing different shapes suited to different market structures:
Quadratic — Fits a parabolic arc through the three anchor points. Best for smooth, continuous curves such as rounded tops and bottoms. It captures the natural "swing" of the market, assuming the momentum will maintain its current rate of acceleration or deceleration.
Quadratic-Linear — Uses a parabolic curve through the anchor points, then transitions to a straight line after the final anchor. Useful when curved structure gives way to linear trend continuation. This is the "bridge" between a turning market and a steady, directed move, preventing the projection from curving back on itself when the price begins to run.
Weighted Linear — Connects anchor points with straight line segments rather than a smooth curve. Suited for angular market structures with distinct inflection points. It treats the market as a series of rigid shifts, providing a clear "corridor" when the price is bouncing between sharp, diagonal levels.
Natural Cubic Spline — Produces the smoothest curve by minimizing abrupt directional changes. Ideal for organic, flowing market movements. It acts as a flexible spine that adapts to complex transitions without the rigid constraints of a fixed geometric shape.
Quadratic Fitting : A smooth, parabolic arc defines a curved resistance boundary. By fitting a mathematical path through three anchor points, the curve captures rounded structures and arcing price action that traditional linear trendlines fail to represent.
Weighted Linear Fitting : This method produces an angular, segmented path by connecting anchor points with distinct linear slopes. Unlike the continuous smoothness of a quadratic arc, the weighted linear approach creates a more jointed geometry, allowing for a precise match to market structures that exhibit sharp, localized changes in trajectory.
Natural Cubic Spline Fitting : This method creates a highly fluid, elastic curve that can accommodate complex price oscillations. In this instance, the curves define a narrowing range as support and resistance converge, highlighting the volatility compression that often precedes a significant breakout or breakdown from established structures.
🖱️ HOW IT WORKS 🖱️
1️⃣ Initial Setup
Unlike traditional indicators that calculate values automatically from price data, Flexible S/R Channels requires user-defined anchor points. This is intentional. The trader's eye is the pattern recognition engine—no algorithm can see the curved structure that experience and intuition reveal. The indicator waits for this input, then applies mathematical precision to render what the trader has identified.
The Recognition of Natural Structure : Effective analysis begins when a curved rhythm becomes visible within price action that traditional trendlines cannot satisfy. Identifying the specific swing highs and swing lows that define these boundaries is the first step in organizing a chart. By isolating three key pivots for resistance and three for support, the underlying framework of the market's trajectory is established, providing the necessary coordinates to accurately map the path.
Interactive Setup Workflow : Upon loading, the indicator prompts for the sequential selection of six points—three swing highs and three swing lows—to serve as the raw data for the calculation. While the chart remains blank during this initial phase, the curves generate instantly once the final anchor is confirmed. These points are not permanent; they appear as interactive grips that can be dragged in real time to refine the boundaries as the market structure evolves.
The indicator prompts for six sequential selections—three for resistance, three for support. The first three selections define the resistance boundary; the final three define support. This sequential grouping is distinct from zigzag-style selection patterns. Within each group, clicking order is flexible—the algorithm automatically sorts points chronologically, allowing traders to select visually prominent pivots in whatever sequence feels natural.
Structural Anchor Identification : Identifying three key swing highs and three key swing lows provides the foundation for the dual-curve geometry. These specific structural peaks and troughs serve as the coordinates for the mathematical models, ensuring that the resulting boundaries accurately reflect the underlying skeleton of the market action.
2️⃣ Interactive Adjustment
After the initial setup, all six anchor points are fully adjustable:
Points are automatically sorted chronologically regardless of selection order
Grip handles appear at each anchor location
Any point can be repositioned by clicking and dragging its grip handle
The curves recalculate instantly as points are adjusted
The algorithm produces a mathematically perfect curve based on the anchor points provided. If the result does not match the trader's vision, adjustments are immediate. This iterative refinement—see, adjust, refine—continues until the rendered curve represents what the trader sees in the price action. The user remains in control; the algorithm remains in service.
Interactive Channel Boundaries : Six user-defined anchor points—three for resistance and three for support —establish a non-linear range that moves beyond the constraints of a flat, horizontal channel. This configuration captures the arcing trajectory of the market while showing price action respecting the curved boundaries in a classic reversion pattern. By manually positioning these anchors, a dynamic dimension is added to the chart that maintains structural integrity even as the price follows a rounded path.
🛠️ SETTINGS 🛠️
Customizable Visual Feedback : Beyond the core geometry, the visualization offers various user-defined settings to tailor the chart's information density. From identifying specific price targets to toggling structural labels, these options allow the trader to adjust the level of detail to suit their personal analysis style while maintaining a clear view of the non-linear boundaries.
Configuration Options
Curve Method — Select the curve-fitting algorithm: Quadratic, Quadratic-Linear, Weighted Linear, or Natural Cubic Spline.
Projection Length — Number of bars to project the curves beyond current price action. Projections appear as dashed lines.
Visual Settings
Grip Size — Size of the draggable handles displayed at each anchor point. Set to zero to hide grips entirely.
Line Width — Thickness of the support and resistance curves.
Support Color / Resistance Color — Color settings for each curve.
Show Info Table — Toggle display of the info table showing the current curve method in the chart corner.
Advanced: Time/Price Coordinates
The settings panel includes precise time and price values for each of the six anchor points, grouped under Resistance Time/Price and Support Time/Price. These values are populated automatically when points are selected on the chart.
Adjusting anchor points by dragging the grip handles directly on the chart is faster and more intuitive. The time/price fields are available for situations requiring exact coordinate entry—such as aligning an anchor to a specific candle timestamp or a precise price level. These fields can be safely ignored unless fine-tuning is necessary.
🖼️ CHART EXAMPLES 🖼️
The Flexible S/R Channels indicator adapts to diverse market structures across multiple timeframes and instruments. Curved boundaries can define subtle momentum shifts in near-linear trends, dramatic reversals in rounding formations, or volatility compression as channels converge toward breakout points. The four curve-fitting methods accommodate different geometries—smooth parabolic arcs for continuous momentum changes, segmented linear paths for angular structures, and elastic splines for complex oscillations. Each anchor point adjustment instantly recalculates the curves, allowing iterative refinement until the rendered boundaries align with the trader's interpretation of market structure. Forward projections extend these mathematical relationships into future territory, providing visual context for hypothetical support and resistance levels if current trajectories persist.
Subtle Curve Alignment : Even in structures that appear linear, subtle curvature allows the channel boundaries to breathe with the market’s internal momentum. By utilizing three anchor points rather than two, the channel adapts to the slight acceleration of a trend, providing a more precise fit than a rigid, straight corridor.
Decelerating Momentum and Convergence : This classic rounding structure illustrates a transition where the initial wide oscillations between highs and lows begin to contract. As the boundaries converge, the curve captures the diminishing volatility and the shift in market energy, providing a clear visual representation of a trend losing its expansive momentum as it approaches a potential turning point.
Organic Trend Modeling : In an accelerating uptrend, the Natural Cubic Spline provides a highly adaptable boundary that mirrors the organic flow of momentum. This non-traditional approach allows the channel to follow complex price pulses that a standard linear trendline would likely cut through, maintaining a precise fit even as the angle of the trend shifts over time.
Non-Linear Projections : Unlike standard trendlines that converge at a fixed rate, curved projections adapt to the historical momentum of the move. This allows the indicator to map a dynamic squeeze, capturing the subtle nuances of how price action tightens toward an apex. It provides a more sophisticated view of future convergence points that traditional linear channels often fail to anticipate.
The "Draw What You See" Philosophy : Market structures are rarely perfect, and this example highlights the indicator’s ability to map unconventional rhythms. Rather than forcing price into a predefined category, the tool remains flexible enough to define any structural path the trader identifies. If you can see a trend's trajectory, the indicator can provide the mathematical framework to support it.
Comparative Projection Modeling : Using identical anchor points as above, this example demonstrates how selecting a different calculation method can alter the projected path. While the historical fit remains precise, the variation in the forward-looking trajectory allows traders to explore multiple mathematical interpretations of the same market structure, choosing the model that best aligns with the current volatility and trend behavior.
Extended Timeframe Channel Definition : This multi-year perspective demonstrates the indicator's ability to define curved channel boundaries across extended timeframes spanning hundreds of bars and multiple market cycles. The resistance curve captures the rounded distribution of swing highs while the support curve follows the accelerating base formation, creating a non-linear channel that frames long-term structural trends more precisely than traditional parallel channels or static trendlines.
Rounding Bottom Reversal and Channel Convergence : This example captures a classic rounding bottom formation—a reversal pattern that linear tools cannot adequately define. The Quadratic method produces a smooth parabolic arc through the resistance anchors, tracing the deceleration of the downtrend, the capitulation low, and the subsequent re-acceleration upward as a single continuous curve. The support boundary mirrors this momentum shift from below, creating a curved channel that narrows toward current price. This convergence represents structural compression—the boundaries tightening as volatility contracts and directional resolution approaches. Price action oscillates within these non-linear boundaries, demonstrating that channel behavior persists even when the geometry is curved rather than parallel. The projection extends both curves forward, mapping the hypothetical trajectory if the current momentum structure continues, providing visual context for potential breakout or breakdown levels as the channel reaches its apex.
Built-in Precision vs. Algorithmic Power : While TradingView offers basic curve drawing tools (shown here as dashed lines), the Flexible S/R Channels indicator elevates this concept into a functional analytical framework. By converting manual observations into mathematical models, it moves beyond mere drawing to provide a data-driven structure that can be utilized for advanced technical analysis and future Pine Script trading logic.
⚙️ TECHNICAL DETAILS ⚙️
Curve Fitting vs. Overfitting: The term curve fitting often carries negative connotations in quantitative analysis due to its association with overfitting—the practice of adjusting a model until it perfectly matches historical data, producing an illusion of accuracy that fails when applied to new data. The application here is fundamentally different. Flexible S/R Channels does not optimize parameters to maximize historical fit; it constructs a mathematical curve through user-selected anchor points, then projects that curve into unknown territory. The curve is not fitted to price data—it is fitted to structural pivots identified by the trader. The projection represents a hypothesis about trajectory continuation, not a prediction derived from statistical optimization. Future price action validates or invalidates this hypothesis in real time, exactly as it does with any trendline or channel. The anchor points remain fixed unless manually adjusted, ensuring the curve does not adapt to new data retroactively.
Non-Repainting Behavior: The indicator does not repaint historical bars. The mathematical coefficients that define each curve are calculated once—when the final anchor point is set—and stored as fixed values. These coefficients remain constant unless an anchor point is manually repositioned. The backfit polyline is drawn once using these coefficients, spanning the known range from the first to last anchor point. The plot() function applies the same coefficients to each subsequent bar, updating in real-time as new bars form but never altering previously plotted values. The projection polyline extends forward from the current bar using the same fixed coefficients, projecting a user-defined number of future bars (maximum 500). This projection redraws on each tick to maintain its position relative to the moving current bar, but the mathematical trajectory remains constant—only the starting point advances. The current bar's curve value will update tick-by-tick as price develops, which is standard real-time behavior, not repainting. Once a bar closes, all curve values on that bar are permanent. The hybrid architecture (backfit polyline for known history, plot() for unlimited real-time range, projection polyline for controlled forward extension) prevents overflow errors while maintaining non-repainting integrity across all components.
🗒️ NOTES 🗒️
The indicator renders curves based on any anchor points provided without validation. Unusual anchor placement produces mathematically accurate but potentially non-useful results. Adjustment is iterative—if the curve doesn't match expectations, reposition the anchors.
Because anchor points are stored as specific time and price coordinates, a new instance of the indicator should be added when analyzing a different chart or timeframe.
Grip handles can be hidden by setting Grip Size to zero in the settings. This is useful for clean chart screenshots or presentations where interactive elements are not needed.
Projection length can be set to zero if forward-looking curves are not desired. The indicator will still render the backfit curves through the anchor points and continue plotting in real-time without the dotted projection extensions.
Anchor points remain fixed at their selected time-price coordinates as new bars form. The curves extend forward automatically from these historical anchors, allowing observation of how projected trajectories align with developing price action.

Reversal RadarReversal Radar
Unified exhaustion detection across 5 distinct reversal patterns — see confluence at a glance.
What It Does
Reversal Radar consolidates 5 independent reversal detection algorithms into a single indicator with a stacked diamond visualization. When any detector fires, you see a vertical stack of diamonds — colored diamonds show which specific patterns triggered, ghost (white) diamonds show which didn't.
More colored diamonds = stronger confluence = higher conviction setup.
The 5 Detectors
Diamond Detector What It Finds
🔴 Red Liquidity Trap Pivot reversal with wick rejection, liquidity sweep, and momentum trap (fading trapped traders)
🟠 Orange Structural Divergence Pivot at new extreme with RSI divergence against major structure
🔵 Light Blue Band Rejection Full candle body outside Bollinger Bands with rejection wick
🟢 Green Panic Snap 5-bar waterfall (consecutive lower lows) snapping back during VIX spike — Long only
🟣 Purple Capitulation Engulf Bullish engulfing at lower BB with steep band decline during elevated VIX — Long only
How To Read It
Long Signals (below bar): 5-diamond stack
• Bottom to top: Liquidity Trap → Structural Divergence → Band Rejection → Panic Snap → Capitulation Engulf
Short Signals (above bar): 3-diamond stack
• Bottom to top: Band Rejection → Structural Divergence → Liquidity Trap
Ghost diamonds (faded white) = that detector did NOT fire Colored diamonds = that detector fired
Colors are consistent between long and short — same detector = same color regardless of direction.
Key Features
• Confluence visualization — instantly see how many independent patterns agree
• No parameter tweaking — all detector settings are pre-tuned and hardcoded
• VIX-aware — the two "capitulation" detectors (Panic Snap, Capitulation Engulf) only fire during elevated VIX conditions
• Session filtering — built-in BOD/EOD blocking to avoid noisy open/close periods
• MTF Bias Table — optional multi-timeframe trend bias display (5m/15m/1H/4H/D)
• Detector Legend — on-chart reference showing what each color means (adjustable size and position)
• Bollinger Bands — optional BB overlay display
Settings
Module Toggles — Enable/disable each of the 5 detectors independently:
• Enable Liquidity Trap
• Enable Structural Divergence
• Enable Band Rejection
• Enable Panic Snap (Long Only)
• Enable Capitulation Engulf (Long Only)
Session Blocking — Define trading session and minutes to block at open/close
Display — Toggle Bollinger Bands, MTF Bias Table position
Legend — Toggle detector legend, adjust position and text size (tiny/small/normal)
Best Used For
• Identifying high-probability reversal zones where multiple exhaustion signatures align
• Filtering out weak signals (single detector) vs strong setups (2-3+ detectors)
• Spotting capitulation bottoms during VIX spikes (Panic Snap + Capitulation Engulf)
• Mean reversion plays at Bollinger Band extremes
Notes
• This indicator is designed for intraday reversal trading on liquid instruments (SPY, QQQ, ES, NQ, etc.)
• The VIX-gated detectors (Panic Snap, Capitulation Engulf) are long-only by design — they're specifically tuned for capitulation bottoms
• Works best on 3m-15m timeframes
• All detector parameters are locked to tested values — this is intentional to keep the indicator simple and consistent

Volatility Radar Volatility Radar
A comprehensive VIX-based dashboard for volatility regime analysis and trade bias confirmation. Designed for options traders who use VIX levels to inform directional bias and identify potential traps in market positioning.
Dashboard Columns
1. 10-Min Rule
Displays your current directional bias based on VIX zone positioning with time-based confirmation.
CALLS (Green): VIX is below the Bullish Chop level — conditions favor call buying / bullish stock positioning
PUTS (Red): VIX is above the Bearish Chop level — conditions favor put buying / bearish stock positioning
CHOP (Yellow): VIX is between the two chop levels — no clear directional edge
Confirmation Logic: The bias must hold for a configurable period (default: 10 minutes) before showing "✓ CONFIRMED". A countdown timer shows time remaining until confirmation. High-velocity moves (spikes or crushes) trigger immediate confirmation. If VIX touches a chop boundary, the timer resets.
2. VIX Levels
Displays four user-configurable VIX thresholds that define the volatility regime zones:
Bearish (Red): Extreme fear — VIX at or above this level signals high volatility / bearish stock conditions
Resist (Orange): Upper chop boundary — resistance level for VIX
Support (Yellow): Lower chop boundary — support level for VIX
Bullish (Green): Low fear — VIX at or below this level signals low volatility / bullish stock conditions
The current zone is highlighted based on where VIX is trading relative to these levels.
3. Options Flow
Displays net options flow sentiment to gauge market positioning. Supports both simulated and real-time OPRA data.
Simulated Mode (Default):
Net Val: Shows simulated flow based on candle direction (bullish candle = positive, bearish = negative) multiplied by volume
Sentiment: BULLISH, BEARISH, or NEUTRAL based on flow direction
- Header displays "Options Flow (Sim)"
Real-Time OPRA Mode:
Vol: Shows actual call and put volumes summed across strikes near ATM (e.g., "C:12.5K P:8.2K")
Sentiment: BULLISH if call volume > put volume, BEARISH if puts dominate
- Header displays "Options Flow 📡"
- Net flow calculated as: `Total Call Volume - Total Put Volume`
⚠️ OPRA Data Requirement
Real-time mode requires an active OPRA data subscription in TradingView. Without this subscription, the options volume data will not populate. Enable "Use Real-Time OPRA Data" in settings and configure the required parameters (see Settings section below).
4. Velocity
Monitors the speed of VIX movement to detect rapid regime changes.
STABLE (Gray): Normal VIX movement
⚡ SPIKE (Red): VIX increased by more than the velocity threshold (default: 0.40 points) over the last 5 bars — rapid fear increase
⚡ CRUSH (Green): VIX decreased by more than the velocity threshold over the last 5 bars — rapid fear decrease
Calculation: `VIX - VIX ` (current VIX minus VIX from 5 bars ago)
5. Trap Detect
Identifies potential positioning traps by comparing VIX regime with options flow direction.
CLEAN (Gray): No divergence detected — flow aligns with VIX regime
⚠️ TRAP (Orange): High VIX + Bullish Flow — warns of potential bull trap; smart money may be selling into retail call buying during elevated fear
🛡️ ABSORB (Yellow): Low VIX + Bearish Flow — institutional absorption pattern; put buying during low VIX may indicate smart money hedging or accumulation
Horizontal Level Lines
Four horizontal lines are automatically drawn on the chart at your configured VIX levels:
1. Green line: Bullish level
2. Yellow line: Bullish Chop (Support) level
3. Orange line: Bearish Chop (Resist) level
4. Red line: Bearish level

10-Minute Rule
Confirmation Minutes: Time required in a zone before bias is confirmed (default: 10)
Velocity Threshold: Points per 5-bar period to trigger spike/crush detection (default: 0.40)
VIX Levels
Bullish (Green): Low volatility threshold (default: 14)
Bullish Chop (Yellow): Lower chop boundary (default: 16)
Bearish Chop (Orange): Upper chop boundary (default: 20)
Bearish (Red): High volatility threshold (default: 25)
Options Flow Data
Use Real-Time OPRA Data: Toggle between simulated and real-time options data (default: off)
Ticker Override: Manual ticker symbol. Leave blank to auto-detect from chart. Examples: SPY, QQQ, SPXW, NDX. Note: SPX auto-converts to SPXW for options symbols.
Center/Anchor Price: Required for OPRA mode. Enter the current underlying price (e.g., 590 for SPY, 5900 for SPX). This determines the ATM strike for data fetching.
Expiry Date (YYMMDD): Options expiration date in YYMMDD format (e.g., 260117 for Jan 17, 2026). Leave blank to use today's date (0DTE).
Strikes Above/Below ATM: Number of strikes to scan on each side of center price (1-10, default: 5). Higher values capture more flow data but use more API calls.
Strike Step Auto-Detection:
- SPX/SPXW, NDX: $5 strikes
- VIX: $0.50 strikes
- SPY, QQQ, and others: $1 strikes
What's New in This Release
1. Real-Time OPRA Options Flow: New toggle to switch between simulated and real-time options data. When enabled with an OPRA subscription, fetches actual call/put volumes across up to 11 strikes around ATM.
2. Configurable Options Parameters: New settings for ticker override, center price, expiry date, and strike range for precise options data targeting.
3. Horizontal Level Lines: VIX threshold levels are now drawn directly on the chart as colored horizontal lines for quick visual reference
4. Reordered Settings: VIX level inputs now flow logically from Bullish to Bearish
Best Practices
1. Use on VIX chart: Apply this indicator directly to a VIX chart (CBOE:VIX) for best results
2. Wait for confirmation: Don't act on bias until the 10-minute rule confirms
3. Respect velocity signals: Spikes and crushes can indicate regime changes before price confirms
4. Watch for traps: Divergence between flow and VIX regime often precedes reversals
5. Customize your levels: Adjust VIX thresholds based on current market conditions and your trading style
6. OPRA Setup: If using real-time options data, ensure you:
- Have an active OPRA subscription in TradingView
- Set the correct Center/Anchor Price for the underlying you're tracking
- Update the expiry date if trading non-0DTE options
- Match the ticker to your target (SPY for SPY options, leave blank on VIX chart for VIX options)

MAD Supertrend [Alpha Extract]A sophisticated SuperTrend implementation that replaces traditional ATR calculations with Mean Absolute Deviation methodology for adaptive volatility measurement and band construction. Utilizing SMA baseline with MAD-based deviation bands and optional adaptive factor adjustments, this indicator delivers institutional-grade trend detection with strength-based filtering and dynamic visual feedback. The system's MAD approach provides superior noise reduction compared to ATR while maintaining responsiveness to genuine volatility changes, combined with momentum-based strength calculations for high-conviction signal generation.
🔶 Advanced MAD-Based Band Construction
Implements Mean Absolute Deviation calculation as volatility proxy, measuring absolute price deviations from mean and smoothing for stable band generation without ATR dependency. The system calculates SMA baseline, computes MAD from configurable lookback period, applies factor multipliers to create upper and lower bands, then implements classic SuperTrend ratcheting logic where bands only adjust when price violates previous levels or calculations warrant updates.
// Core MAD SuperTrend Framework
SMA_Value = ta.sma(src, SMA_Length)
Mean = ta.sma(src, MAD_Length)
Abs_Deviation = abs(src - Mean)
MAD_Value = ta.sma(Abs_Deviation, MAD_Length)
// Band Construction with Ratcheting
Upper_Band = SMA_Value + MAD_Factor * MAD_Value
Lower_Band = SMA_Value - MAD_Factor * MAD_Value
// Ratcheting logic prevents premature band adjustments
🔶 Adaptive Factor Adjustment Engine
Features optional adaptive multiplier system that modulates MAD factor based on normalized MAD magnitude relative to recent extremes, creating bands that automatically expand during high-volatility regimes and contract during consolidation. The system applies min-max normalization to MAD values over configurable lookback, multiplies by adaptation parameter, and adds to base factor for dynamic volatility sensitivity without manual recalibration.
🔶 Momentum-Based Strength Filter
Implements sophisticated strength calculation measuring price momentum relative to baseline divided by volatility-adjusted MAD bands, producing normalized 0-1 strength scores with exponential smoothing. The system calculates distance from SMA baseline, normalizes by MAD-derived band width, and applies configurable minimum threshold requiring sufficient momentum before trend signals activate, filtering weak or choppy market conditions.
🔶 SuperTrend Direction Logic
Utilizes classic SuperTrend methodology adapted for MAD bands where trend direction flips on opposite band violations with state persistence until confirmation. The system tracks whether price closes above upper band (bearish flip to bullish) or below lower band (bullish flip to bearish), maintains directional state until opposing violation occurs, and generates binary +1/-1 trend signals suitable for systematic position management.
🔶 Intelligent Candle Sticking System
Provides advanced line positioning option that anchors SuperTrend line to candle wicks or bodies rather than pure calculation values for enhanced visual clarity. The system supports two modes: Wick (positions at high/low extremes based on trend direction) and Body (constrains line between calculation and candle extremes), creating cleaner chart presentation while maintaining mathematical integrity of underlying signals.
🔶 Dynamic Gradient Visualization Framework
Implements color intensity modulation based on smoothed strength calculations, transitioning from muted to vivid hues as momentum conviction increases. The system applies gradient interpolation using strength ratio, creating visual feedback where strong trending moves display intense colors while weak or consolidating conditions show faded tones across trend line, channel bands, and candle coloring for immediate regime assessment.
🔶 MAD Channel Architecture
Features volatility-adjusted channel bands centered on baseline or candle-stuck line with configurable multiplier for support/resistance visualization. The system calculates upper and lower bounds using MAD values scaled by adaptive factors and channel multipliers, applies dynamic transparency based on trend strength, and creates filled regions that intensify during strong trends and fade during weak conditions.
🔶 Multi-Layer Glow Effect System
Provides sophisticated line rendering with triple-layer plot system creating glow effect through progressively wider and more transparent outer layers. The system plots core trend line at specified width with full color intensity, adds inner glow layer at +2 width with moderate transparency, and outer glow at +4 width with higher transparency, creating visual depth and emphasis without cluttering chart space.
🔶 Strength-Based State Management
Implements intelligent trend state logic requiring both directional signal and minimum strength threshold breach before confirming trend transitions. The system calculates raw SuperTrend direction, evaluates smoothed strength against configurable minimum, generates filtered trend state that can be bullish (+1), bearish (-1), or neutral (0), and maintains state persistence using hold logic that prevents oscillation during ambiguous conditions.
🔶 Comprehensive Alert Integration
Generates trend flip alerts when filtered state transitions from bearish to bullish or bullish to bearish with full confirmation requirements satisfied. The system detects state changes through comparison with previous bar, triggers single alert per transition rather than continuous notifications, and provides customizable message templates for automated trading system integration or manual notification preferences.
🔶 Performance Optimization Architecture
Utilizes efficient calculation methods with null value handling, nz() functions preventing errors during initialization bars, and optimized gradient calculations. The system includes intelligent state persistence minimizing recalculation overhead, streamlined MAD computation avoiding redundant mean calculations, and smooth visual updates maintaining consistent performance across extended historical periods.
This indicator delivers sophisticated SuperTrend analysis through Mean Absolute Deviation methodology providing superior statistical properties compared to traditional ATR-based approaches. MAD calculations offer more robust volatility measurement resistant to extreme outliers while maintaining sensitivity to genuine market regime changes. The system's adaptive factor adjustment, momentum-based strength filtering, and dynamic visual feedback make it essential for traders seeking reliable trend-following signals with reduced false breakouts during choppy conditions. The combination of MAD bands, candle-sticking options, gradient strength visualization, and comprehensive filtering creates institutional-grade trend detection suitable for systematic approaches across cryptocurrency, forex, and equity markets with clear entry/exit signals and comprehensive alert capabilities.

ZigZag Volume Profile [Honestcowboy]The ZigZag Volume Profile Indicator is a combination of 2 very popular trading indicators, the volume profile and zigzag indicator. Instead of using predetermined sessions like traditional volume profile analysis. This indicator expands on zigzag indicators "legs" and draws a volume profile inside each zigzag leg.
What is a Volume Profile?
"Technical analysis tool showing trading volume at specific price levels, creating a horizontal histogram on the side of a chart to reveal areas of high buying/selling interest, unlike traditional volume bars showing volume over time. Key elements include the Point of Control (POC) for most traded price, the Value Area (VAH/VAL), identifying crucial support/resistance, and analyzing profile shapes (like D, B, P) to understand market balance and potential price targets, used by professionals to spot liquidity and market structure."
Key Differences
Does not have a value area but distinguishes each column in relation to the biggest column in percentage terms.
Does not take sessions into account instead using zigzag legs
🟦 CALCULATION
The zigzag volume profile first builds a standard zigzag indicator to find structure in the market. Using pivot points and a minimum % price move threshhold.
Then once it knows the zigzags it will use each leg as a time window to calculate a volume profile inside.
🔹Coloring each column:
The script will find the biggest column in the Profile and use that as a reference for all other columns. It will then decide for each column individually how big it is in % compared to the biggest column. It will use that percentage to decide which color to give it, top 20% will be red, top 40% purple, top 60% blue, top 80% green and all the rest yellow. The user is able to adjust these numbers for further customisation.
🟦 USAGE
The idea behind this indicator is, if you look at markets as different legs (moves) going in a zigzag pattern you might want to look deeper inside your previous moves and see where the actual liquidity/volume was during that move. The hypothesis here is you build trade ideas based on zigzags but then use the volume profiles.
Since volume and market structure are very well known concepts to discretionary traders I'm hoping this indicator might give some different perspective on this relation and help people create a trading approach based on it. Here's some quick cherry picked examples, just as a proof of concept:
🟦 SETTINGS
🔹ZIGZAG SETTINGS
Price Deviotion % : This is the minimum price move in % term from last pivot price needs to move to form a new pivot for the zigzag.
Pivot Legs (Left/Right): The amount of bars a high or a low needs to be higher/lower than to the left and right of the bar. 10 By default to create medium term zigzag
🔹Volume Profile
Profile Rows: The amount of rows in Y axis the zigzag is going to be sliced into to create the volume profile. Higher number is more detailed volume profile but also uses more box objects which is maxed at 500. 25 by default
Profiles to Display: The amount of volume profiles the indicator will draw back in time. Higher number means more history but also longer loading time. 20 by default
🔹Visual Settings
This part is pretty self explanatory and you have can manually select the colors used to create the volume profile. Refer back the the explanation about the "🔹coloring each column" section.

Daily maximum price range for Credit SpreadsVolatility & Momentum for Credit Spreads
It is a specialized mean-reversion tool designed primarily for options traders focusing on Credit Spreads (specifically 0DTE on SPX) and intraday reversals. By combining Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) with VIX-adjusted volatility bands, this indicator identifies statistical extremes where price is likely to revert.
Unlike standard Bollinger Bands or Keltner Channels, TITAN adapts its width based on real-time implied volatility (VIX), ensuring that your "overextended" zones are accurate whether the market is calm or chaotic.
🎯 Core Concept
The indicator relies on the principle that price moves within a definable "Daily Range" relative to the VWAP. When price pushes to the outer limits of this range while simultaneously hitting RSI extremes; it signals a high-probability reversal setup ideal for selling premium.
🛠 How It Works
The engine is built on three pillars:
Volatility-Adaptive Bands: The bands are calculated using a 14-day Average Daily Range (ADR), which is then dynamically scaled by the current VIX relative to a baseline. If VIX spikes, the bands widen instantly to keep you safe from premature entries.
Momentum Triggers: Signals are generated only when the RSI (14) hits extreme Overbought (>70) or Oversold (<30) levels.
"Golden Hour" Filtering: To avoid market open noise or late-day chop, the indicator includes a customizable time filter (Default: 10:15 – 11:30 AM EST). Signals outside this window are suppressed to enforce trading discipline.
🚀 Key Features
Visual Strategy Simulation: The indicator now includes a built-in "Strike Simulator." Upon the first valid signal of the session, it automatically plots a horizontal "Strike Line" at the Outer Band ± a user-defined buffer (e.g., 10 points). This helps you visualize your theoretical strike price for the rest of the day.
Bull & Bear Zones: Color-coded fills (Green for Bullish Buy Zones, Red for Bearish Sell Zones) make it easy to see market context at a glance.
Live Dashboard: A Heads-Up Display (HUD) in the bottom right shows real-time RSI values, Golden Hour status, and current signal state.
Unified Alert System: A single master alert condition triggers if price hits an RSI extreme OR touches a volatility band during your active trading window.
📉 How to Trade It (Example Strategy)
Wait for the Window: Ensure the "Golden Hour" on the dashboard reads ACTIVE (Default 10:15 AM EST).
Identify the Zone: Short Setup (Call Credit Spread): Price pushes into the Red Zone (Outer High). Long Setup (Put Credit Spread): Price pushes into the Green Zone (Outer Low).
Confirm the Signal: Look for the Diamond Icon. This confirms RSI has hit the extreme threshold.
Check the "Strike Line": Use the simulated horizontal line to identify where your short strike would be (Outer Band + Buffer) to verify it is at a safe distance from current price.
⚙️ Settings
ADR Length: Lookback period for daily range calculation (Default: 10).
Baseline VIX:* The standard VIX level used for normalization (Default: 15.0).
Inner/Outer Multipliers: Controls the width of the bands.
Golden Hour: The specific time window for valid signals.
Strike Buffer: Points added to the outer band to simulate your option strike price.
