Institutional PointOverview Institutional Point is a sophisticated data-mining indicator designed to identify and track "institutional footprints" by isolating the single candle with the highest volume relative to a specific time anchor. Unlike traditional volume profiles that aggregate data into price bins, this script pinpoints the exact temporal origin of massive liquidity injections.
Core Methodology The script operates on a multi-timeframe analysis engine (MTF). It scans sub-chart data (2-minute or 15-minute intervals) to find the absolute maximum volume peak within a defined period. Once the "Institutional Point" is identified:
Source Identification: The origin candle is highlighted in white, signaling a high-conviction entry or exit by large-scale market participants.
Zone Projection: A borderless "Institutional Zone" is projected forward from the spike’s high/low range.
Dynamic Interaction: The zone remains active until the price revisits the area (mitigation) or until the time-based expiration is reached.
Anchor Modes & Precision
8-Hour Cycle: Optimized for high-frequency scalping. Anchors reset at 00:00, 08:00, and 16:00. Utilizes ultra-precise 2-minute volume detection.
Daily Session: Designed for intraday and swing traders. Anchors to the Daily Open. Utilizes 2-minute volume detection to isolate precise institutional orders.
Weekly Cycle: Built for identifying major structural pivots. Anchors to the Weekly Open. Utilizes 15-minute volume detection for macro-liquidity analysis.
Key Features
Naked Level Tracking: Zones automatically stop extending the moment they are "hit" by price action, providing a clean visual of unmitigated liquidity.
Anti-Noise Filter: Automatically excludes Saturday and Sunday data to maintain statistical integrity across global markets.
Minimalist Interface: High-contrast visual design focused on scannability and professional chart aesthetics.
Use Cases
Data Science & Backtesting: Ideal for measuring the "Z-Score" or "Percentile Distance" from institutional peaks.
Supply & Demand Trading: Automated identification of the "Origin of the Move."
Magnet Analysis: Tracking "Naked" volume spikes as high-probability magnets for future price mean reversion.

MDZ Strategy v4.2 - Multi-factor trend strategyWhat This Strategy Does
MDZ (Momentum Divergence Zones) v4.2 is a trend-following strategy that enters long positions when multiple momentum and trend indicators align. It's designed for swing trading on higher timeframes (2H-4H) and uses ATR-based position management.
The strategy waits for strong trend confirmation before entry, requiring agreement across five different filters. This reduces trade frequency but aims to improve signal quality.
Entry Logic
A long entry triggers when ALL of the following conditions are true:
1. EMA Stack (Trend Structure)
Price > EMA 20 > EMA 50 > EMA 200
This "stacked" alignment indicates a strong established uptrend
2. RSI Filter (Momentum Window)
RSI between 45-75 (default)
Confirms momentum without entering overbought territory
3. ADX Filter (Trend Strength)
ADX > 20 (default)
Ensures the trend has sufficient strength, not a ranging market
4. MACD Confirmation
MACD line above signal line
Histogram increasing (momentum accelerating)
5. Directional Movement
+DI > -DI
Confirms bullish directional pressure
Exit Logic
Positions are managed with ATR-based levels:
ParameterDefaultDescriptionStop Loss2.5 × ATRBelow entry priceTake Profit6.0 × ATRAbove entry priceTrailing Stop2.0 × ATROptional, activates after entry
The default configuration produces a 1:2.4 risk-reward ratio.

Important Notes
⚠️ This is a long-only strategy. It does not take short positions.
⚠️ Historical results do not guarantee future performance. Backtests show what would have happened in the past under specific conditions. Markets change, and any strategy can experience drawdowns or extended losing periods.
⚠️ Risk management is your responsibility. The default settings risk 100% of equity per trade for backtesting purposes. In live trading, appropriate position sizing based on your risk tolerance is essential.
⚠️ Slippage and commissions matter. The backtest includes 0.02% commission and 1 tick slippage, but actual execution costs vary by broker and market conditions.
Best Practices
Test on your specific market — Results vary significantly across different instruments
Use appropriate position sizing — Never risk more than you can afford to lose
Combine with your own analysis — No indicator replaces understanding market context
Paper trade first — Validate the strategy matches your trading style before risking capital
Alerts
Two alerts are available:
MDZ Long Entry: Fires when all entry conditions are met
Uptrend Started: Fires when EMA stack first aligns bullish
Methodology
This strategy is based on the principle that trend continuation has better odds than reversal when multiple timeframe momentum indicators agree. By requiring five independent confirmations, it filters out weak setups at the cost of fewer total signals.
The ATR-based exits adapt to current volatility rather than using fixed pip/point targets, which helps the strategy adjust to different market conditions.

Live Position Sizer (LPS)Description (EN)
(Magyar leíráshoz görgess lejjebb!)
Live Position Sizer (LPS) is a discretionary trading utility designed to visualize risk, reward, and position size directly on the chart in real time.
The indicator draws a TradingView-style long or short position box and calculates the required position size based on your defined capital, maximum risk, stop-loss distance, and a user-defined lot conversion factor.
LPS is intended strictly as a decision-support and risk management tool. It does not place trades or generate automated signals.
Core features:
Automatic Long / Short position visualization
Dynamic Entry, Stop Loss, and Take Profit levels
Real-time position size calculation
Configurable Risk/Reward ratio
Fully customizable colors, transparency, and line styles
Clean, minimal on-chart labels showing direction, RR, and lot size
Only one active position box at a time for a clutter-free chart
Position sizing logic:
TradingView internally calculates position size in units, not broker-specific lots.
To bridge this difference, LPS uses a user-defined “Units per 1 Lot” multiplier.
Examples:
Forex (standard lot): 100000
Gold (XAUUSD): 1 or 100 (broker dependent)
Indices (e.g. NAS100): 1
The indicator first calculates the position size in TradingView units and then converts it to lots using this multiplier.
The displayed lot size is rounded to 0.01 lots.
Stop Loss logic:
The Stop Loss level is derived from the High or Low of a selectable previous candle.
Increasing the bar-back value places the Stop Loss further away, which:
increases stop distance
reduces position size for the same risk
Intended use:
Manual / discretionary trading
Risk management and position sizing
Trade planning and visualization
Educational purposes
Important notes:
This indicator does not execute trades
No alerts or automation by default
Lot size and contract specifications vary by broker
Always verify the exact lot or contract size with your broker before trading
------------------------------------
Description (HU)
A Live Position Sizer (LPS) egy diszkrecionális kereskedést támogató segédindikátor, amely valós időben jeleníti meg a kockázatot, a célárat és a pozícióméretet közvetlenül a charton.
Az indikátor TradingView-stílusú long vagy short pozíció boxot rajzol, és kiszámolja a szükséges pozícióméretet a megadott tőke, maximális kockázat, stop-loss távolság és egy felhasználó által definiált LOT szorzó alapján.
Az LPS nem stratégia, kizárólag döntéstámogató és kockázatkezelési eszköz.
Fő funkciók:
Automatikus Long / Short pozíció megjelenítés
Entry, Stop Loss és Take Profit szintek vizuális ábrázolása
Valós idejű pozícióméret számítás
Állítható Risk/Reward arány
Teljesen testreszabható színek, átlátszóság és vonalstílus
Letisztult chart label (irány, RR, lot méret)
Egyszerre csak egy aktív pozíció box
Pozícióméretezési logika:
A TradingView belsőleg egységekben (units) számol, nem bróker-specifikus LOT-okban.
Ennek kezelésére az LPS egy „Units per 1 Lot” beállítást használ.
Példák:
Forex standard lot: 100000
Arany (XAUUSD): 1 vagy 100 (brókertől függ)
Indexek (pl. NAS100): 1
Az indikátor először TradingView egységekben számol, majd ezt átváltja LOT-ra a megadott szorzó segítségével.
A kijelzett LOT méret 0.01-re van kerekítve.
Stop Loss logika:
A Stop Loss szint a kiválasztott korábbi gyertya high vagy low értékéből kerül meghatározásra.
Nagyobb bar-back érték:
távolabb helyezi a stopot
azonos kockázat mellett kisebb pozícióméretet eredményez
Ajánlott felhasználás:
Manuális, diszkrecionális kereskedés
Kockázatkezelés és pozícióméretezés
Trade tervezés
Oktatási célok
Fontos megjegyzések:
Az indikátor nem köt automatikusan
Alapértelmezetten nincs alert vagy automatizmus
A LOT és contract méret brókerenként eltérhet
Kereskedés előtt mindig ellenőrizd a pontos LOT / contract specifikációt a brókerednél

Liquidation Map [Alpha Extract]A sophisticated liquidity distribution visualization system that identifies potential liquidation zones through pivot-based detection and renders them as an interactive histogram with cumulative distance-to-liquidation curves. Utilizing multi-exchange volume aggregation and ATR-scaled pocket detection, this indicator delivers institutional-grade liquidity mapping with real-time histogram display showing relative concentration of long and short liquidation levels across configurable price ranges. The system's box-based rendering architecture combined with cumulative distribution overlays provides comprehensive visual assessment of asymmetric liquidity positioning for strategic trade planning.
🔶 Advanced Multi-Exchange Aggregation Framework
Implements intelligent ticker detection and multi-source volume aggregation across major exchanges including Binance, Bybit, KuCoin, OKX, and MEXC for accurate liquidity weight calculations. The system automatically identifies base currency (BTC, ETH, SOL) from chart ticker, retrieves volume data from matching perpetual contracts across multiple venues, and aggregates into composite volume metric for enhanced pocket weighting accuracy.
🔶 Pivot-Based Liquidation Pocket Detection
Features sophisticated swing point identification using configurable pivot width with ATR-scaled vertical zone construction for volatility-adaptive pocket sizing. The system detects pivot highs for short liquidation zones (placed above swing) and pivot lows for long liquidation zones (placed below swing), applying 200-period ATR with percentage multipliers to determine pocket heights that adjust to market volatility conditions.
🔶 Interactive Histogram Visualization Engine
Provides real-time box-based histogram rendering in indicator pane with configurable bin counts (up to 400 columns) and adjustable height, displaying liquidity concentration across fixed percentage range above and below current price. The system calculates bin sizes from view range, accumulates pocket weights into price bins, and renders vertical bars with gradient color intensity reflecting relative liquidity concentration at each price level.
🔶 Cumulative Distance Overlay System
Implements innovative cumulative distribution curves showing aggregate liquidity distance from current price for both long (left) and short (right) positions. The system calculates running totals of pocket weights from current price outward in both directions, normalizes against maximum span, and overlays line segments showing how much total liquidity exists at various distances, enabling instant assessment of liquidation cascade potential.
🔶 Dynamic Price Range Adaptation
Features fixed percentage-based view window that maintains consistent price range visualization across all timeframes and instruments, automatically centering histogram on current price with configurable +/- percentage bounds. The system recalculates histogram bins and pocket distributions on each bar close, ensuring visualization adapts to price movement while maintaining interpretable scale regardless of volatility regime.
🔶 Touch Detection and Weight Adjustment
Provides intelligent pocket state tracking that identifies when price trades through liquidation zones and applies configurable weight multipliers to touched pockets for historical context. The system monitors price interaction with pocket midpoints, marks pockets as "hit" when violated, and optionally increases their visual weight (default 5x) to emphasize historical liquidation levels while distinguishing from untouched future zones.
🔶 Gradient Intensity Color System
Implements sophisticated color gradient engine that modulates bar opacity from transparent to opaque based on relative liquidity concentration within each bin. The system normalizes bin values against maximum liquidity, applies color interpolation from faded to vivid hues, and distinguishes long liquidation zones (cyan) from short liquidation zones (yellow/gold) with current price column highlighted in red for instant orientation.
🔶 Performance-Optimized Rendering Architecture
Utilizes efficient box and line object management with dynamic allocation based on histogram configuration, implementing intelligent cleanup and reuse to maintain smooth performance. The system includes adaptive line budget calculations that adjust segment density for cumulative curves based on available object limits, ensuring consistent operation even with maximum histogram resolution settings.
🔶 Asymmetric Distribution Analysis
Calculates separate cumulative distributions for long and short liquidation zones split at current price, enabling identification of imbalanced liquidity positioning. The system normalizes distributions against respective maximums and overlays both curves on single histogram, allowing traders to instantly assess whether more liquidation risk exists above (shorts vulnerable) or below (longs vulnerable) current price levels.
🔶 Configurable Label and Scale System
Provides price axis labeling with adjustable frequency to reduce clutter while maintaining reference points, displaying price values at regular column intervals with configurable offset positioning. The system includes current price label showing exact value and percentile position within view range, offering both absolute price reference and relative positioning context for distribution interpretation.
🔶 Historical Pocket Persistence Framework
Maintains rolling window of liquidation pockets up to 3000 bars with automatic expiration management and optional preservation of touched zones for historical analysis. The system tracks pocket creation time, monitors age against lookback limits, and manages array cleanup to prevent memory overflow while retaining relevant historical liquidation levels for pattern recognition and support/resistance validation.
This indicator delivers sophisticated liquidity distribution analysis through histogram visualization and cumulative distance curves that reveal asymmetric positioning of potential liquidation levels. Unlike simple liquidation heatmaps that show absolute levels, the Liquidation Map's cumulative distribution overlays instantly communicate how much total liquidity exists at various distances from current price, enabling assessment of cascade potential. The system's multi-exchange volume aggregation, touch-weighted historical zones, and fixed-range visualization make it essential for traders seeking strategic positioning around institutional liquidity clusters in cryptocurrency futures markets. The histogram format enables instant identification of price levels where concentrated liquidations may trigger significant volatility or reversal events, while the asymmetric distribution curves reveal whether market structure favors upside or downside cascades.
End Of MooveINDICATOR: END OF MOOVE (EOM)
1. Overview
The EndOfMoove (EOM) is a specialized volatility analysis tool designed to detect market exhaustion and potential price reversals. By utilizing a modified Williams Vix Fix (WVF) logic, it identifies when fear or selling pressure has reached a statistical extreme relative to recent history.
---
2. Core Logic & Calculation
The script functions by measuring the "synthetic" volatility created during sharp price drops and momentum shifts.
* Williams Vix Fix (WVF) Logic: It calculates the distance between the current low and the highest close over a specific lookback period ( 20 bars by default ). This creates a volatility spike during market bottoms or rapid corrections.
* Dynamic Normalization: The indicator continuously tracks the Historical Maximum of this volatility over a long window ( 250 bars ).
* Statistical Thresholding: It sets a "Danger Zone" at a specific percentage ( 75% ) of that historical maximum to filter out noise and isolate significant exhaustion events.
---
3. Adaptive Intelligence (Detection & Smoothing)
The EOM adapts to different market conditions through its detection engine:
1. Spike Confirmation: To avoid premature entries, the script uses a confirmation window ( 3 bars ). A signal is only "confirmed" if the current volatility spike is the highest within this local window.
2. Variable Smoothing: Traders can apply an internal SMA smoothing to the raw volatility data to filter out erratic price action on lower timeframes.
---
4. Visual Anatomy
The interface uses a high-contrast design to highlight institutional exhaustion:
* The Histogram:
* Faded Gray: Represents standard market volatility. The transparency is dynamic ; it darkens as volatility rises, signaling a buildup in pressure.
* Bright White: Activates when the volatility crosses the Dynamic Threshold , marking a high-probability exhaustion zone.
* The Threshold Line: A continuous horizontal boundary that represents the 75% of historical max , acting as the "Trigger Line."
* Signal Triangles: A small white triangle appears at the top of the indicator when a Volatility Spike is statistically confirmed.
---
5. How to Trade with EndOfMoove
* Spotting Bottoms: Large white columns often coincide with "capitulation" phases. When the histogram reaches these levels, the current downward move is likely overextended.
* Divergence Watch: If price makes a new low but the EOM histogram shows a lower spike than the previous one, it indicates that selling pressure is drying up.
* Volatility Breakouts: A sudden transition from faded gray to bright white suggests an impulse move that is reaching its peak velocity.
---
6. Technical Parameters
* WVF Period: Controls the sensitivity of the raw volatility calculation.
* Historical Max Period: Determines the depth of the statistical database (50 to 500 bars).
* Threshold %: Allows the trader to tighten or loosen the "Extreme" zone (set to 75% for balanced results).
Eclipse Multi-Oscillator [JOAT]Eclipse Multi-Oscillator - Unified Momentum Confluence System
Introduction and Purpose
Eclipse Multi-Oscillator is an open-source indicator that combines four classic oscillators (RSI, Stochastic, CCI, and Williams %R) into a single unified view with confluence detection. The core problem this indicator solves is oscillator disagreement: traders often see RSI oversold while Stochastic is neutral, or CCI overbought while Williams %R is mid-range. This creates confusion about the true momentum state.
This indicator addresses that by displaying all four oscillators together and counting how many agree on overbought or oversold conditions, providing a clear confluence score that cuts through the noise.
Why These Four Oscillators Work Together
Each oscillator measures momentum differently, and their combination provides a more complete picture:
1. RSI (Relative Strength Index) - Measures the magnitude of recent price changes. Best at identifying momentum exhaustion.
2. Stochastic - Compares closing price to the high-low range. Best at identifying where price is within its recent range.
3. CCI (Commodity Channel Index) - Measures price deviation from statistical mean. Best at identifying unusual price movements.
4. Williams %R - Similar to Stochastic but inverted. Provides confirmation of Stochastic readings.
When 3 or more of these oscillators agree on overbought or oversold, the signal is significantly more reliable than any single oscillator alone.
How Confluence Scoring Works
The indicator counts how many oscillators are in extreme territory:
int obCount = 0
if rsi > rsiOB
obCount += 1
if stochK > stochOB
obCount += 1
if cci > cciOB
obCount += 1
if willRScaled > stochOB
obCount += 1
bool strongOverbought = obCount >= 3
bool strongOversold = osCount >= 3
The confluence score ranges from -4 (all oversold) to +4 (all overbought), with 0 being neutral.
Signal Types
Strong Oversold - 3+ oscillators below oversold threshold (potential bounce)
Strong Overbought - 3+ oscillators above overbought threshold (potential pullback)
OB/OS Exit - RSI leaving extreme zone with Stochastic confirmation (potential reversal)
Divergence - Price makes new high/low while RSI does not (potential reversal warning)
Dashboard Information
RSI/Stoch K/CCI/Will %R - Current values with zone status (OB/OS/MID)
Confluence - Overall bias (STRONG OS, STRONG OB, Lean Bull/Bear, Neutral)
OB Count - How many oscillators are overbought (0-4)
OS Count - How many oscillators are oversold (0-4)
How to Use This Indicator
For Reversal Trading:
1. Wait for Strong Oversold (3+ oscillators agree)
2. Look for bullish candlestick pattern or support level
3. Enter long with stop below recent low
4. Take profit when confluence returns to neutral or overbought
For Trend Confirmation:
1. Check confluence direction matches your trade bias
2. Avoid longs when confluence is strongly overbought
3. Avoid shorts when confluence is strongly oversold
For Divergence Trading:
1. Watch for "D" labels indicating RSI divergence
2. Bullish divergence at support = potential long
3. Bearish divergence at resistance = potential short
Input Parameters
RSI Length (14) - Period for RSI calculation
Stochastic K/D Length (14/3) - Periods for Stochastic
CCI Length (20) - Period for CCI
Williams %R Length (14) - Period for Williams %R
OB/OS Thresholds - Customizable levels for each oscillator
Timeframe Recommendations
15m-1H: Good for intraday momentum analysis
4H-Daily: Best for swing trading confluence
Very short timeframes may produce noisy signals
Limitations
All oscillators can remain in extreme territory during strong trends
Confluence does not predict direction, only identifies extremes
Divergence detection is simplified and may miss some patterns
Works best in ranging or moderately trending markets

ICT Entry V1 [TS_Indie]📌 Description – ICT Entry V1
This trading system is based on price action, combined with FVG, iFVG, and liquidity, and it uses the mechanism from the indicator “Smallest Swing ” to validate swings that become liquidity.
⚙️ Core Logic & Working Mechanism
I won’t explain FVG in detail, as most traders are already familiar with it.
Let’s focus on the mechanism of iFVG instead.
The concept of iFVG is based on a supply-to-demand flip and a demand-to-supply flip within an FVG zone.
For an iFVG to be confirmed, the candle close must break through the FVG.
A wick alone does not count as a valid iFVG confirmation.
The confirmation of market structure swings uses a pivot length mechanism combined with price action.
It validates a swing by detecting a structure break formed by candles making new highs or new lows.
📈 Buy Setup
1.Liquidity sweep on the demand side, with price closing above the liquidity level.
2.A demand zone is formed as FVG and iFVG, where iFVG is located above FVG.
3.The gap between the upper box of FVG and the lower box of iFVG must be within the defined Min and Max range.
4.Market Structure must be in a Bullish trend.
5.Place a Pending Order at the upper box of FVG and set Stop Loss at the lower box of FVG (Entry and Stop Loss can be adjusted using Entry Zone and ATR-based Stop Loss).
📉 Sell Setup
1.Liquidity sweep on the supply side, with price closing below the liquidity level.
2.A supply zone is formed as FVG and iFVG, where iFVG is located below FVG.
3.The gap between the lower box of FVG and the upper box of iFVG must be within the defined Min and Max range.
4.Market Structure must be in a Bearish trend.
5.Place a Pending Order at the lower box of FVG and set Stop Loss at the upper box of FVG (Entry and Stop Loss can be adjusted using Entry Zone and ATR-based Stop Loss).
⚙️ Liquidity Sweep Conditions
➯ When a liquidity sweep occurs on the demand side, the system will start looking for Buy Setup conditions.
➯ When a liquidity sweep occurs on the supply side, the system will immediately switch to looking for Sell Setup conditions.
➯ The system will always prioritize the most recent liquidity sweep and search for setups based on that direction.
➯ The liquidity sweep condition will be invalidated when price closes back below (for demand sweep) or above (for supply sweep) the most recently swept liquidity level.
⭐ Pending Order Cancellation Conditions
A Pending Order will be canceled under the following conditions:
1.A new Price Action signal appears on either the Buy or Sell side.
2.When Time Session is enabled, the Pending Order is canceled once price exits the selected session.
🕹 Order Management Rule
When there is an active open position, the indicator restricts the creation of new Pending Orders to prevent overlapping positions.

Dimensional Support ResistanceDimensional Support Resistance
Overview
Dimensional Support Resistance is an open-source overlay indicator that automatically detects and displays clean, non-overlapping support and resistance levels using pivot-based analysis with intelligent filtering. It identifies significant swing highs and lows, filters them by minimum distance to prevent visual clutter, and provides volume-confirmed bounce signals.
What This Indicator Does
The indicator calculates and displays:
Dynamic Pivot Levels - Automatically detected swing highs and lows based on configurable pivot strength
Distance Filtering - Ensures levels are spaced apart by a minimum percentage to prevent overlap
S/R Zones - Visual zones around each level showing the price area of significance
Bounce Detection - Identifies when price reverses at support or resistance levels
Volume Confirmation - Strong signals require above-average volume for confirmation
How It Works
Pivot detection scans for swing highs and lows using a configurable strength parameter. A pivot low requires the low to be lower than all surrounding bars within the strength period.
Signal Generation
The indicator generates bounce signals using TradingView's built-in pivot detection combined with candle reversal confirmation:
Support Bounce: Pivot low forms with bullish close (close > open)
Resistance Bounce: Pivot high forms with bearish close (close < open)
Strong Bounce: Bounce occurs with volume 1.5x above 20-period average
A cooldown period of 15 bars prevents signal spam.
Dashboard Panel
A compact dashboard displays:
Support - Count of active support levels
Resistance - Count of active resistance levels
Dashboard position is configurable (Top Left, Top Right, Bottom Left, Bottom Right).
Visual Elements
Support Lines - Green horizontal lines at support levels
Resistance Lines - Red horizontal lines at resistance levels
S/R Zones - Semi-transparent boxes around levels showing zone width
Price Labels - S: and R: labels showing exact price of nearest levels
BOUNCE Markers - Triangle shapes with text when price bounces at a level
STRONG Markers - Label shapes when bounce occurs with high volume
Input Parameters
Lookback Period (default: 100) - Historical bars to scan for pivots
Pivot Strength (default: 8) - Bars on each side required for valid pivot (higher = fewer but stronger levels)
Max Levels Each Side (default: 2) - Maximum support and resistance levels displayed
Zone Width % (default: 0.15) - Width of zones around each level as percentage of price
Min Distance Between Levels % (default: 1.0) - Minimum spacing between levels to prevent overlap
Show S/R Zones (default: true) - Toggle zone visualization
Show Bounce Signals (default: true) - Toggle signal markers
Support Color (default: #00ff88) - Color for support elements
Resistance Color (default: #ff3366) - Color for resistance elements
Suggested Use Cases
Identify key support and resistance levels for entry and exit planning
Use bounce signals as potential reversal confirmation
Combine with other indicators for confluence-based trading decisions
Monitor strong signals for high-probability setups with volume confirmation
Timeframe Recommendations
Works on all timeframes. Higher timeframes (4H, Daily) provide more significant levels with fewer signals. Lower timeframes show more granular structure but may produce more noise.
Limitations
Pivot detection requires lookback bars, so very recent pivots may not be immediately visible
Bounce signals are based on pivot formation and may lag by the pivot strength period
Levels are recalculated on each bar, so they may shift as new pivots form

Aligns past years to today’s calendar date
Normalizes all paths to the last close at the start
Projects historical performance X bars forward
Displays each year as a separate performance path
Calculates and plots the mean (average) projection for quick reference
🔧 How It Works
Number of Years: choose how many past years to include (e.g. last 10, 20, or 25 years)
Projection Length: choose how many bars (days) ahead to project
Each line shows how the market moved during the same period in a specific year
Labels show the year and total return at the projection end
The mean line highlights the average historical outcome
🧠 Why This Is Useful
Identify seasonal tendencies
Compare current price action to historical analogs
Visualize best / worst historical outcomes
Set realistic expectations for short-term moves
Add context to discretionary or systematic decisions
This tool does not predict the future, but it provides a powerful historical framework to assess what has been typical, rare, or extreme for the current market window.
⚠️ Notes
Script works on timenow variable for now, and you might see unexpected periods if today is a day off.
Results depend on the selected timeframe and instrument
Past performance is not a guarantee of future results
Designed for analysis and context, not standalone signals
Pivot Point Zones [JOAT]Pivot Point Zones — Multi-Formula Pivot Levels with ATR Zones
Pivot Point Zones calculates and displays traditional pivot points with five formula options, enhanced with ATR-based zones around each level. This creates more practical trading zones that account for price noise around key levels—because price rarely reacts at exact mathematical levels.
What Makes This Indicator Unique
Unlike basic pivot point indicators, Pivot Point Zones:
Offers five different pivot calculation formulas in one indicator
Creates ATR-based zones around each level for realistic reaction areas
Pulls data from higher timeframes automatically
Displays clean labels with exact price values
Provides a comprehensive dashboard with all levels
What This Indicator Does
Calculates pivot points using Standard, Fibonacci, Camarilla, Woodie, and more formulas
Draws horizontal lines at Pivot, R1-R3, and S1-S3 levels
Creates ATR-based zones around each level for realistic price reaction areas
Displays labels with exact price values
Updates automatically based on higher timeframe closes
Provides fills between zone boundaries for visual clarity
Pivot Formulas Explained
// Standard Pivot - Classic (H+L+C)/3 calculation
pp := (pivotHigh + pivotLow + pivotClose) / 3
r1 := 2 * pp - pivotLow
s1 := 2 * pp - pivotHigh
r2 := pp + pivotRange
s2 := pp - pivotRange
// Fibonacci Pivot - Uses Fib ratios for level spacing
r1 := pp + 0.382 * pivotRange
r2 := pp + 0.618 * pivotRange
r3 := pp + 1.0 * pivotRange
// Camarilla Pivot - Tighter levels for intraday
r1 := pivotClose + pivotRange * 1.1 / 12
r2 := pivotClose + pivotRange * 1.1 / 6
r3 := pivotClose + pivotRange * 1.1 / 4
// Woodie Pivot - Weights current close more heavily
pp := (pivotHigh + pivotLow + 2 * close) / 4
// TD Pivot - Conditional based on open/close relationship
x = pivotClose < pivotOpen ? pivotHigh + 2*pivotLow + pivotClose :
pivotClose > pivotOpen ? 2*pivotHigh + pivotLow + pivotClose :
pivotHigh + pivotLow + 2*pivotClose
pp := x / 4
Formula Characteristics
Standard — Classic pivot calculation. Balanced levels, good for swing trading.
Fibonacci — Uses 0.382, 0.618, and 1.0 ratios. Popular with Fibonacci traders.
Camarilla — Tighter levels derived from range. Excellent for intraday mean-reversion.
Woodie — Weights current close more heavily. More responsive to recent price action.
TD — Conditional calculation based on open/close relationship. Adapts to bar type.
Zone System
Each pivot level includes an ATR-based zone that provides a more realistic area for potential price reactions:
// ATR-based zone width calculation
float atr = ta.atr(atrLength)
float zoneHalf = atr * zoneWidth / 2
// Zone boundaries around each level
zoneUpper = level + zoneHalf
zoneLower = level - zoneHalf
This accounts for market noise and helps avoid false breakout signals at exact level prices.
Visual Features
Pivot Lines — Horizontal lines at each calculated level
Zone Fills — Transparent fills between zone boundaries
Level Labels — Labels showing level name and exact price (e.g., "PP 45123.50")
Color Coding :
- Yellow: Pivot Point (PP)
- Red gradient: Resistance levels (R1, R2, R3) - darker = further from PP
- Green gradient: Support levels (S1, S2, S3) - darker = further from PP
Color Scheme
Pivot Color — Default: #FFEB3B (yellow) — Central pivot point
Resistance Color — Default: #FF5252 (red) — R1, R2, R3 levels
Support Color — Default: #4CAF50 (green) — S1, S2, S3 levels
Zone Transparency — 85-90% transparent fills around levels
Dashboard Information
The on-chart table (bottom-right corner) displays:
Selected pivot type (Standard, Fibonacci, etc.)
R3, R2, R1 resistance levels with exact prices
PP (Pivot Point) highlighted
S1, S2, S3 support levels with exact prices
Inputs Overview
Pivot Settings:
Pivot Type — Formula selection (Standard, Fibonacci, Camarilla, Woodie, TD)

How to Use It
For Intraday Trading:
Use Daily pivots on intraday charts (15m, 1H)
Pivot point often acts as the day's "fair value" reference
Camarilla levels work well for intraday mean-reversion
R1/S1 are the most commonly tested levels
For Swing Trading:
Use Weekly pivots on daily charts
Standard or Fibonacci formulas work well
R2/S2 and R3/S3 become more relevant
Zone boundaries provide realistic entry/exit areas
For Support/Resistance:
R levels above price act as resistance targets
S levels below price act as support targets
Zone boundaries are more realistic than exact lines
Multiple formula confluence adds significance
Alerts Available
DPZ Cross Above Pivot — Price crosses above central pivot
DPZ Cross Below Pivot — Price crosses below central pivot
DPZ Cross Above R1/R2 — Price breaks resistance levels
DPZ Cross Below S1/S2 — Price breaks support levels
Best Practices
Match pivot timeframe to your trading style (Daily for intraday, Weekly for swing)
Use zones instead of exact levels for more realistic expectations
Camarilla is best for mean-reversion; Standard/Fibonacci for breakouts

Iridescent Liquidity Prism [JOAT]Iridescent Liquidity Prism | Peer Momentum HUD
A multi-layered order-flow indicator that combines microstructure analysis, smart-money footprint detection, and intermarket momentum signals. The script uses dynamic color-shifting themes to visualize liquidity patterns, structure, and peer momentum data directly on the chart.
There is so much to choose from inside the settings, if you think it's a mess on the chart it's because you have to personally customize it based on your needs...
Core Functionality
The indicator calculates and displays several analytical layers simultaneously:
Order-Flow Imbalance (OFI): Calculates buy vs. sell volume pressure using volume-weighted price distribution within each bar. Uses an EMA filter (default: 55 periods) to smooth the signal. Values are normalized using standard deviation to identify significant imbalances.
Smart Money Footprints: Detects accumulation and distribution zones by comparing volume rate of change (ROC) against price ROC. When volume ROC exceeds a threshold (default: 65%) and price ROC is positive, accumulation is detected. When volume ROC is high but price ROC is negative, distribution is detected.
Fractal Structure Mapping: Identifies pivot highs and lows using a fractal detection algorithm (default: 5-bar period). Maintains a rolling window of recent structure points (default: 4 levels) and draws connecting lines to show trend structure.
Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection: Automatically detects price gaps where three consecutive candles create an imbalance. Bullish FVGs occur when the current low exceeds the high two bars ago. Bearish FVGs occur when the current high is below the low two bars ago. Gaps persist for a configurable duration (default: 320 bars) and fade when price fills the gap.
Liquidity Void Detection: Identifies candles where the high-low range exceeds an ATR threshold (default: 1.7x ATR) while volume is below average (default: 65% of 20-bar average). These conditions suggest areas where liquidity may be thin.
Price/Volume Divergence: Uses linear regression to detect when price trend direction disagrees with volume trend direction. A divergence alert appears when price is trending up while volume is trending down, or vice versa.
Peer Momentum Heatmap (PMH): Calculates composite momentum scores for up to 6 symbols across 4 timeframes. Each score combines RSI (default: 14 periods) and StochRSI (default: 14 periods, 3-bar smooth) to create a momentum composite between -1 and +1. The highest absolute momentum score across all combinations is displayed in the HUD.
Custom settings using Fractal Pivots, Skeleton Structure, Pulse Liquidity Voids, Bottom Colorful HeatMaps, and Iridescent Field.
---
Visual Components
Spectrum Aura Glow: ATR-weighted bands (default: 0.25x ATR) that expand and contract around price action, indicating volatility conditions. The thickness adapts to market volatility.
Chromatic Flow Trail: A blended line combining EMA and WMA of price (default: 8-period EMA blended with WMA at 65% ratio). The trail uses gradient colors that shift based on a phase oscillator, creating an iridescent effect.
Volume Heat Projection: Creates horizontal volume profile bands at price levels (default: 14 levels). Scans recent bars (default: 150 bars) to calculate volume concentration. Each level is colored based on its volume density relative to the maximum volume level.
Structure Skeleton: Dashed lines connecting fractal pivot points. Uses two layers: a primary line (2-3px width) and an optional glow overlay (4-5px width) for enhanced visibility.
Fractal Markers: Diamond shapes placed at pivot high and low points. Color-coded: primary color for highs, secondary color for lows.
Iridescent Color Themes: Five color themes available: Iridescent (default), Pearlescent, Prismatic, ColorShift, and Metallic. Colors shift dynamically using a phase oscillator that cycles through the color spectrum based on bar index and a speed multiplier (default: 0.35).
---
HUD Console Metrics
The right-side HUD displays seven key metrics:
Flow: Shows OFI status: ▲ FLOW BUY when normalized OFI exceeds imbalance threshold (default: 2.2), ▼ FLOW SELL when below -2.2, or ◆ FLOW BAL when balanced.
Struct: Structure trend bias: ▲ STRUCT BULL when microtrend > 2, ▼ STRUCT BEAR when < -2, or ◆ STRUCT RANGE when neutral.
Smart$: Institutional activity: ◈ ACCUM when smart money index = 1, ◈ DISTRIB when = -1, or ○ IDLE when inactive.
Liquid: Liquidity state: ⚡ VOID when a liquidity void is detected, or ● NORMAL otherwise.
Diverg: Divergence status: ⚠ ALERT when price/volume divergence detected, or ✓ CLEAR when aligned.
PMH: Peer Momentum Heatmap status: Shows dominant timeframe and momentum score. Displays 🪩 for bull surge (above 0.55 threshold) or 🧨 for bear surge (below -0.55).
FVG: Fair Value Gap status: Shows active gap count or CLEAR when no gaps exist. Displays GAP LONG when bullish gap detected, GAP SHORT when bearish gap detected.

---
Usage Considerations
Performance may vary on lower timeframes due to the volume heat map calculations scanning multiple bars. Consider reducing heat map lookback or levels if experiencing slowdowns.
The PMH feature requires data requests to other symbols/timeframes, which may impact performance. Limit the number of peer symbols and timeframes for optimal performance.
FVG boxes automatically expire after the persistence period to prevent chart clutter. The maximum box limit (default: 40) prevents excessive memory usage.
Color themes affect all visual elements. Choose a theme that provides good contrast with your chart background.
The indicator is designed for overlay display. All visual elements are positioned relative to price action.
Structure lines are drawn dynamically as new pivots form. On fast-moving markets, structure may update frequently.
Volume calculations assume typical volume data availability. Symbols without volume may show incomplete data for volume-dependent features.
---
Technical Notes
Built on Pine Script v6 with dynamic request capability for PMH functionality.
Uses exponential moving averages (EMA) and weighted moving averages (WMA) for trail calculations to balance responsiveness and smoothness.
Volume profile calculation uses price level buckets. Higher levels provide finer granularity but require more computation.
Iridescent color engine uses a phase oscillator with sine wave calculations for smooth color transitions.
Box management includes automatic cleanup of expired boxes to maintain performance.
All visual elements use color gradients and transparency for smooth blending with price action.
---
Customization Examples
Intraday Scalping Setup:
Analysis Depth: 30 bars
Heat Map Lookback: 100 bars
FVG Persistence: 150 bars
PMH Window: 15 bars
Fast color shift speed: 0.5+
Macro Structure Tracking:
Analysis Depth: 100+ bars
Heat Map Lookback: 300+ bars
FVG Persistence: 500+ bars
Structure Memory: 6-8 levels
Slower color shift speed: 0.2
---
Limitations
Volume heat map calculations may be computationally intensive on lower timeframes with high lookback values.
PMH requires valid symbol names and accessible timeframes. Invalid symbols or timeframes will return no data.
FVG detection requires at least 3 bars of history. Early bars may not show FVG boxes.
Structure lines connect points but do not predict future structure. They reflect historical pivot relationships.
Color themes are aesthetic choices and do not affect calculation logic.
The indicator does not provide trading signals. All visual elements are analytical tools that require interpretation in context of market conditions.
Open Source
This indicator is open source and available for modification and distribution. The code is published with Pine Script v6 compliance. Users are free to customize parameters, modify calculations, and adapt the visual elements to their trading needs.

Liquidity Maxing [JOAT]Liquidity Maxing - Institutional Liquidity Matrix
Introduction
Liquidity Maxing is an open-source strategy for TradingView built around institutional market structure concepts. It identifies structural shifts, evaluates trades through multi-factor confluence, and implements layered risk controls.
The strategy is designed for swing trading on 4-hour timeframes, focusing on how institutional order flow manifests in price action through structure breaks, inducements, and liquidity sweeps.
Core Functionality
Liquidity Maxing performs three primary functions:
Tracks market structure to identify when control shifts between buyers and sellers
Scores potential trades using an eight-factor confluence system
Manages position sizing and risk exposure dynamically based on volatility and user-defined limits
The goal is selective trading when multiple conditions align, rather than frequent entries.
Market Structure Engine
The structure engine tracks three key events:
Break of Structure (BOS): Price pushes beyond a prior pivot in the direction of trend
Change of Character (CHoCH): Control flips from bullish to bearish or vice versa
Inducement Sweeps (IDM): Market briefly runs stops against trend before moving in the real direction
The structure module continuously updates strong highs and lows, labeling structural shifts visually. IDM markers are optional and disabled by default to maintain chart clarity.
The trade engine requires valid structure alignment before considering entries. No structure, no trade.
Eight-Factor Confluence System
Instead of relying on a single indicator, Liquidity Maxing uses an eight-factor scoring system:
Structure alignment with current trend
RSI within healthy bands (different ranges for up and down trends)
MACD momentum agreement with direction
Volume above adaptive baseline
Price relative to main trend EMA
Session and weekend filter (configurable)
Volatility expansion/contraction via ATR shifts
Higher-timeframe EMA confirmation
Each factor contributes one point to the confluence score. The default minimum confluence threshold is 6 out of 8, but you can adjust this from 1-8 based on your preference for trade frequency versus selectivity.
Only when structure and confluence agree does the strategy proceed to risk evaluation.
Dynamic Risk Management
Risk controls are implemented in multiple layers:
ATR-based stops and targets with configurable risk-to-reward ratio (default 2:1)
Volatility-adjusted position sizing to maintain consistent risk per trade as ranges expand or compress
Daily and weekly risk budgets that halt new entries once thresholds are reached
Correlation cooldown to prevent clustered trades in the same direction
Global circuit breaker with maximum drawdown limit and emergency kill switch
If any guardrail is breached, the strategy will not open new positions. The dashboard clearly displays risk state for transparency.
Market Presets
The strategy includes configuration presets optimized for different market types:
Crypto (BTC/ETH): RSI bands 70/30, volume multiplier 1.2, enhanced ATR scaling
Forex Majors: RSI bands 75/25, volume multiplier 1.5
Indices (SPY/QQQ): RSI bands 70/30, volume multiplier 1.3
Custom: Default values for user customization
For crypto assets, the strategy automatically applies ATR volatility scaling to account for higher volatility characteristics.
Monitoring and Dashboards
The strategy includes optional monitoring layers:
Risk Operations Dashboard (top-right):
Trend state
Confluence score
ATR value
Current position size percentage
Global drawdown
Daily and weekly risk consumption
Correlation guard state
Alert mode status
Performance Console (top-left):
Net profit
Current equity
Win rate percentage
Average trade value
Sharpe-style ratio (rolling 50-bar window)
Profit factor
Open trade count
Optional risk tint on chart background provides visual indication of "safe to trade" versus "halted" state.
All visualization elements can be toggled on/off from the inputs for clean chart viewing or full telemetry during parameter tuning.
Alerts and Automation
The strategy supports alert integration with two formats:
Standard alerts: Human-readable messages for long, short, and risk-halt conditions
Webhook format: JSON-formatted payloads ready for external execution systems (optional)
Alert messages are predictable and unambiguous, suitable for manual review or automated forwarding to execution engines.
Built-in Validation Suite
The strategy includes an optional validation layer that can be enabled from inputs. It checks:
Internal consistency of structure and confluence metrics
Sanity and ordering of risk parameters
Position sizing compliance with user-defined floors and caps
This validation is optional and not required for trading, but provides transparency into system operation during development or troubleshooting.
Strategy Parameters
Market Presets:
Configuration Preset: Choose between Crypto (BTC/ETH), Forex Majors, Indices (SPY/QQQ), or Custom
Market Structure Architecture:
Pivot Length: Default 5 bars
Filter by Inducement (IDM): Default enabled
Visualize Structure: Default enabled
Structure Lookback: Default 50 bars
Risk & Capital Preservation:
Risk:Reward Ratio: Default 2.0
ATR Period: Default 14
ATR Multiplier (Stop): Default 2.0
Max Drawdown Circuit Breaker: Default 10%
Risk per Trade (% Equity): Default 1.5%
Daily Risk Limit: Default 6%
Weekly Risk Limit: Default 12%
Min Position Size (% Equity): Default 0.25%
Max Position Size (% Equity): Default 5%
Correlation Cooldown (bars): Default 3
Emergency Kill Switch: Default disabled
Signal Confluence:
RSI Length: Default 14
Trend EMA: Default 200
HTF Confirmation TF: Default Daily
Allow Weekend Trading: Default enabled
Minimum Confluence Score (0-8): Default 6
Backtesting Considerations
When backtesting this strategy, consider the following:
Commission: Default 0.05% (adjustable in strategy settings)
Initial Capital: Default $100,000 (adjustable)
Position Sizing: Uses percentage of equity (default 2% per trade)
Timeframe: Optimized for 4-hour charts, though can be tested on other timeframes
Results will vary significantly based on:
Market conditions and volatility regimes
Parameter settings, especially confluence threshold
Risk limit configuration
Symbol characteristics (crypto vs forex vs equities)
Past performance does not guarantee future results. Win rate, profit factor, and other metrics should be evaluated in context of drawdown periods, trade frequency, and market conditions.
How to Use This Strategy
This is a framework that requires understanding and parameter tuning, not a one-size-fits-all solution.
Recommended workflow:
Start on 4-hour timeframe with default parameters and appropriate market preset
Run backtests and study performance console metrics: focus on drawdown behavior, win rate, profit factor, and trade frequency
Adjust confluence threshold to match your risk appetite—higher thresholds mean fewer but more selective trades
Set realistic daily and weekly risk budgets appropriate for your account size and risk tolerance
Consider ATR multiplier adjustments based on market volatility characteristics
Only connect alerts or automation after thorough testing and parameter validation
Treat this as a risk framework with an integrated entry engine, not merely an entry signal generator. The risk controls are as important as the trade signals.
Strategy Limitations
Designed for swing trading timeframes; may not perform optimally on very short timeframes
Requires sufficient market structure to identify pivots; may struggle in choppy or low-volatility environments
Crypto markets require different parameter tuning than traditional markets
Risk limits may prevent entries during favorable setups if daily/weekly budgets are exhausted
Correlation cooldown may delay entries that would otherwise be valid
Backtesting results depend on data quality and may not reflect live trading with slippage
Design Philosophy
Many indicators tell you when price crossed a moving average or RSI left oversold. This strategy addresses questions institutional traders ask:
Who is in control of the market right now?
Is this move structurally significant or just noise?
Do I want to add more risk given what I've already done today/week?
If I'm wrong, exactly how painful can this be?
The strategy provides disciplined, repeatable answers to these questions through systematic structure analysis, confluence filtering, and multi-layer risk management.
Technical Implementation
The strategy uses Pine Script v6 with:
Custom types for structure, confluence, and risk state management
Functional programming approach for reusable calculations
State management through persistent variables
Optional visual elements that can be toggled independently
The code is open-source and can be modified to suit individual needs. All important logic is visible in the source code.

Open Interest Bubbles [BackQuant]Open Interest Bubbles
A visual OI positioning overlay that aggregates futures open interest across major venues, normalizes it into a consistent “signal strength” scale, then plots extreme events as bubbles, labels, and optional horizontal levels directly on price.
What this is for
Open interest is one of the cleanest ways to track when positioning is building, unwinding, or aggressively shifting. The problem is raw OI is noisy, exchange-specific, and hard to compare across time. This script solves that by:
- Aggregating OI across multiple exchanges.
- Letting you choose what “OI signal” you care about (raw, delta, percent versions).
- Normalizing the signal so “big events” are easy to spot.
- Plotting those events as bubbles and levels at the exact price they occurred.
You end up with a clean, fast visual map of where large positioning changes occurred, and where those events may later matter as reaction points.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Plotting types (what you can display)
Bubbles
This mode plots OI events as size-bucketed circles on the chart. Bigger bubbles represent stronger normalized events. You can tune:
- Bubble sizing by bucket (Tiny → Huge).
- Heatmap vs solid color styling.
- Signed vs unsigned coloring (positive/negative separation or magnitude-only).
Best use:
- Spotting “where something changed” at a glance.
- Identifying clusters of positioning events around key price zones.
- Seeing whether the market is repeatedly building/closing positions at similar levels.
Levels
Levels mode draws a horizontal line at the anchor price when an extreme OI event triggers. These act like “positioning memory” levels:
- They do not claim to be support/resistance by themselves.
- They highlight prices where the derivatives market clearly did something meaningful.
Best use:
- Marking potential reaction zones.
- Combining with your price action tools (structure, OBs, FVGs) to confirm whether an OI level aligns with a technical level.
- Building a “map” of where leverage likely entered or exited.
Modes available in the script:
- Off
- Bubbles
- Bubbles + Labels
- Labels Only
- Levels + Labels
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Aggregated Open Interest source (multi-exchange)
This indicator builds a single aggregated OI series by requesting OI data from multiple exchanges and summing it. You can toggle exchanges on/off:
- Binance, Bybit, OKX, Bitget, Kraken, HTX, Deribit
You can also choose OI units:
- COIN , OI in base units (native sizing)
- USD , converted for a dollar-value representation
Important note:
Not every symbol has OI data on every venue. If the script cannot build an aggregated series for the symbol, it will throw an error rather than quietly plotting garbage.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
OI Source, what the bubbles are measuring
You control what “signal” is normalized and plotted:
- Delta , change in aggregated OI from the prior bar.
Use when you want to highlight bursts of new positioning or sudden unwind events.
- Raw OI , the aggregated open interest level itself.
Use when you want to highlight absolute positioning build-up periods.
- Delta % , percent change in OI.
Use when you want moves normalized to the current OI regime, useful across different market eras.
- Raw OI % , percent change form of the raw series.
Use when you want relative changes rather than absolute size.
Practical guidance:
- Delta modes are best for “event detection”.
- Raw modes are better for “regime context” and whether positioning is structurally rising or fading.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Normalization (the key to making it readable)
Because OI varies massively across assets and time, the script includes multiple normalization modes to convert your chosen OI source into a comparable “strength” value.
Options:
- ZScore , deviation from a rolling mean in standard deviation units.
- StdNorm , scaled by rolling standard deviation.
- AbsZScore , absolute value version for magnitude-only mapping.
- AbsStdNorm , absolute value version for magnitude-only mapping.
- None , plots raw values (advanced users only, often too noisy visually).
Why this matters:
Normalization makes a “1.5” or “3.0” threshold mean something across different assets and timeframes, instead of being stuck to raw OI units.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Threshold system (when bubbles/levels trigger)
The plot is driven by two user thresholds:
- Base Threshold
Controls where “meaningful” events start. Raising this reduces noise and focuses on larger deviations.
- Extreme Threshold
Controls what qualifies as a top-tier event. Extreme events are what you typically want to convert into labels and levels.
You also control side filtering:
- Both , show positive and negative events.
- Positive Only , show only increases (or positive signal side depending on source).
- Negative Only , show only decreases (or negative signal side).
In practice:
- Use Base Threshold to tune chart cleanliness.
- Use Extreme Threshold to mark only the “big stuff” that tends to matter later.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Anchor Source (where the bubble/level is placed)
The indicator places bubbles, labels, and levels at a price anchor you choose:
- HL2, Close, Open, High, Low, VWAP
This is important because “where you pin the event” changes how it reads:
- Close is clean and consistent for backtesting and candle-close logic.
- High/Low can better represent where the fight occurred intrabar.
- VWAP can be useful for “fair price” anchoring in active markets.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Style system (theme, palette, signed logic)
This script is built to look good and stay readable on busy charts.
Themes
- BackQuant, Classic, Ice, Fire, Mono, Custom
Palette Mode
- Solid , one consistent color
- Heatmap , intensity increases with magnitude
- Single Color Adaptive , adapts to chart background for clarity
Side Coloring
- Signed , positive and negative events can use different ramps
- Unsigned , magnitude-only coloring
Negative theme handling:
- Auto (mirrors your chosen theme),
- Invert (flips the ramp),
- Custom (fully user-defined negative palette).
What this gives you:
- You can run a clean “mono” look for professional charts.
- Or a high-contrast heatmap for fast scanning.
- Or fully custom branding colors for BackQuant-style presentation.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Labels (what’s inside the label)
When labels are enabled, the script can display:
- OI , the aggregated OI value
- OI + Norm , OI plus normalized strength
- Norm Only , just the normalized strength
- Src + Norm , the selected source value (Delta, Raw, %) plus normalized strength
You can also control:
- Left/Center/Right label alignment
- Number formatting style (Raw, Compact, Volume format)
Best practice:
- Use “Src + Norm” when you want both the raw event size and its rarity.
- Use “Norm Only” when you want a clean, minimal chart.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Levels and object limits (performance and cleanliness)
Because this script draws objects, it includes a hard cleanup system:
- You set Max Levels / Labels to control chart clutter.
- The script deletes older lines/labels when the limit is exceeded.
This is critical if you trade lower timeframes, where OI events can trigger frequently.
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
How to interpret the signals
What a large bubble usually means:
- A statistically large positioning change relative to recent history.
- This can represent fresh leverage entering, forced liquidations, or aggressive de-risking, depending on direction and context.
How to use levels:
- Treat them as “attention levels”, not automatic entries.
- Combine them with structure and liquidity tools:
- If price revisits an OI level and shows rejection, it often confirms that level mattered.
- If price slices through with no reaction, it often indicates the OI event was transitional, not defended.
Common setups:
- Clustered extreme bubbles near a breakout zone, then retest later.
- Extreme negative event at capitulation low, followed by structure flip.
- Extreme positive build into resistance, then unwind and mean reversion.

TRV & nTRV - Trimmed Range VolatilityGrid bots require stable volatility measurement - ATR becomes misleading when gaps and sudden spikes distort the average. TRV (Trimmed Range Volatility) is an advanced version of ATR: it filters outliers at the extremes (highest and lowest ranges) and remains unaffected by gaps. This provides real-time, accurate volatility measurement for grid bot setup.Grid bots require stable volatility measurement - ATR becomes misleading when gaps and sudden spikes distort the average. TRV (Trimmed Range Volatility) is an advanced version of ATR: it filters outliers at the extremes (highest and lowest ranges) and remains unaffected by gaps. This provides real-time, accurate volatility measurement for grid bot setup.
Why We Developed TRV?
When a gap or sudden spike occurs in the morning, this extreme movement affects standard ATR calculations for an extended period. Even if the price moves sideways for the rest of the day, ATR remains elevated. This causes grid bots to operate with unnecessarily wide spacing and execute fewer trades.
TRV Advantages:
✅ Unaffected by Gaps: Opening gaps don't distort the calculation
✅ Extreme Point Elimination: Filters the largest and smallest outlier candles
✅ Real-Time Accuracy: Shows current market volatility
✅ Grid Bot Optimization: Enables tighter and more efficient grid spacing
✅ Comparison Capability: Compare different stocks and timeframes with nTRV
Grid Bot Usage:
The TRV value is used directly to calculate the number of grid lines:
(Resistance - Support) / TRV = Number of Grid Lines
Example:
Resistance: $110
Support: $90
TRV: $2
Grid Count: (110-90)/2 = 10 grid lines
Features:
Two Filtering Modes: Manual (enter number) or Percentage-Based (automatic ratio)
Four Indicators in One: nTRV, TRV, ATR, and nATR all displayed on the same panel
nTRV: Normalized value (percentage-based, for stock comparison)
TRV: Absolute value (currency-based, for grid calculation)
ATR & nATR Included: Standard ATR and nATR for direct comparison with TRV
Comprehensive Analysis: Compare filtered (TRV) vs unfiltered (ATR) volatility side-by-side
Default: 10% top, 10% bottom outlier elimination
Conclusion:
TRV is an advanced version of ATR specifically designed for grid bot traders. By filtering outlier movements, it provides more stable and reliable volatility measurement. The indicator includes both TRV (filtered) and ATR (unfiltered) on the same chart, giving traders a comprehensive view to make informed decisions. This dual-display approach enables more efficient grid strategies and increased trading frequency.
ForzAguanno - Premium / Discount (Range Glissant)Premium / Discount Zones – Dynamic Range (Fibo-based)
This indicator highlights Premium, Discount, and Equilibrium zones using a dynamic Fibonacci range calculated from recent price action.
It is designed to help traders contextualize price and avoid taking trades in unfavorable locations (e.g. buying too high or selling too low).
- How it works
The indicator automatically:
- Detects the highest high (HH) and lowest low (LL) over a rolling range
- Builds a Fibonacci-style structure between LL → HH
- Defines three key areas:
Discount Zone (lower part of the range)
Equilibrium Zone (around the 50% level)
Premium Zone (upper part of the range)
Two additional extreme levels are used:
0.075 → deep discount
0.925 → deep premium
These levels help isolate areas where price is statistically stretched.
- Visual elements
- Horizontal levels:
- Green → Discount
- Purple → Equilibrium
- Red → Premium
- Text labels are placed inside each zone for instant readability.
Zones are extended into the future for cleaner visualization.
- How to use it
This tool is best used as a context filter, not a standalone signal generator.
Typical use cases:
Look for longs in Discount
Look for shorts in Premium
Use Equilibrium as a neutral / decision zone
Combine with structure, momentum, or entry models
It works particularly well with:
Market structure concepts
Smart money / range-based trading
Session-based strategies
⚠️ Important notes
This indicator does not predict direction
It provides context, not signals
Always combine with proper risk management
Final thoughts
The goal of this indicator is simplicity and clarity:
Know where price is located inside its range before taking a trade.

VCAI RSI Divergence +VCAI RSI Divergence+ is an RSI that shows trend, momentum, and divergence using V-CoresAI colour logic instead of a single white line.
What it shows:
Yellow RSI line → bullish momentum (RSI above its MA; buy-side pressure in control)
Purple RSI line → bearish momentum (RSI below its MA; sell-side pressure in control)
Thin blue line → fast RSI moving average that drives the colour flips
Dashed 70/30 lines → classic OB/OS zones
Background bands → soft purple in OB, soft yellow in OS to mark exhaustion areas
How to read it:
Yellow & rising → momentum shifting bullish; pullbacks into yellow OS band can be accumulation zones
Purple & falling → momentum shifting bearish; pushes into purple OB band can be distribution/sell zones
Hard colour flips (yellow ↔ purple) mark trend regime changes, not minor RSI noise
Divergence mode (on/off)
The divergence engine scans RSI and price pivot structure:
Bullish divergence (yellow) → price lower low + RSI higher low
Bearish divergence (purple) → price higher high + RSI lower high
Lines and tags appear only where a meaningful disagreement between price and RSI exists, giving early context for potential reversals or fade setups.
Together, the momentum colours + optional divergence mapping give a far clearer market read than a standard RSI, with zero clutter and no guesswork.
MorphWave Bands [JOAT]MorphWave Bands - Adaptive Volatility Envelope System
MorphWave Bands create a dynamic price envelope that automatically adjusts its width based on current market conditions. Unlike static Bollinger Bands, this indicator blends ATR and standard deviation with an efficiency ratio to expand during trending conditions and contract during consolidation.
What This Indicator Does
Plots adaptive upper and lower bands around a customizable moving average basis
Automatically adjusts band width using a blend of ATR and standard deviation
Detects volatility squeezes when bands contract to historical lows
Highlights breakouts when price moves beyond the bands
Provides squeeze alerts for anticipating volatility expansion
Adaptive Mechanism
The bands adapt through a multi-step process:
// Blend ATR and Standard Deviation
blendedVol = useAtrBlend ? (atrVal * 0.6 + stdVal * 0.4) : stdVal
// Normalize volatility to its historical range
volNorm = (blendedVol - volLow) / (volHigh - volLow)
// Create adaptive multiplier
adaptMult = baseMult * (0.5 + volNorm * adaptSens)
This creates bands that respond to market regime changes while maintaining stability.
Squeeze Detection
A squeeze is identified when band width drops below a specified percentile of its historical range:
Background highlighting indicates active squeeze conditions
Low percentile readings suggest compressed volatility
Squeeze exits often precede directional moves
Inputs Overview
Band Length — Period for basis calculation (default: 20)
Base Multiplier — Starting band width multiplier (default: 2.0)
MA Type — Choose from SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, or HMA
Adaptation Lookback — Historical period for normalization (default: 50)
Adaptation Sensitivity — How much bands respond to volatility changes
Squeeze Threshold — Percentile below which squeeze is detected
Dashboard Information
Current trend direction relative to basis and bands
Band width percentage
Squeeze status (Active or None)
Efficiency ratio
Current adaptive multiplier value
How to Use It
Look for squeeze conditions as potential precursors to breakouts
Use band touches as dynamic support/resistance references
Monitor breakout signals when price closes beyond bands
Combine with momentum indicators for directional confirmation
Alerts
Upper/Lower Breakout — Price exceeds band boundaries
Squeeze Entry/Exit — Volatility compression begins or ends
Basis Crosses — Price crosses the center line

Luxy VWAP Magic - MTF Projection EngineThis indicator transforms the classic VWAP into a comprehensive trading system. Instead of switching between multiple indicators, you get everything in one place: multi-timeframe analysis, statistical bands, momentum detection, volume profiling, session tracking, and divergence signals.
What Makes This Different
Traditional VWAP indicators show a single line. This tool treats VWAP as a foundation for complete market analysis. The indicator automatically detects your asset type (stocks, crypto, forex, futures) and adjusts its behavior accordingly. Crypto traders get 24/7 session tracking. Stock traders get proper market hours handling. Everyone gets institutional-grade analytics.
Anchor Period Options
The anchor period determines when VWAP resets and recalculates. You have three categories of options:
Time-Based Anchors:
Session - Resets at market open. Best for intraday stock trading where you want fresh VWAP each day.
Day - Resets at midnight UTC. Standard option for most traders.
Week / Month / Quarter / Year - Longer reset periods for swing traders and position traders who want broader context.
Rolling Window Anchors:
Rolling 5D - A sliding 5-day window that never resets. Solves the Monday problem where weekly VWAP equals daily VWAP on first day of week.
Rolling 21D - Approximately one month of trading data in continuous calculation. Excellent for crypto and forex markets that trade 24/7 without clear session breaks.
Event-Based Anchors:
Dividends - Resets on ex-dividend dates. Track institutional cost basis from dividend events.
Splits - Resets on stock split dates. Useful for analyzing post-split trading behavior.
Earnings - Resets on earnings report dates. See where volume-weighted trading occurred since last quarterly report.
Standard Deviation Bands
Three sets of bands surround the main VWAP line:
Band 1 (Aqua) - Plus and minus one standard deviation. Approximately 68% of price action occurs within this range under normal distribution. Touches suggest minor extension.
Band 2 (Fuchsia) - Plus and minus two standard deviations. Only 5% of trading should occur outside this range statistically. Touches here indicate significant overextension and high probability of mean reversion.
Band 3 (Purple) - Plus and minus three standard deviations. Touches are rare (0.3% probability) and represent extreme conditions. Often marks climax moves or panic selling/buying.
Each band can be toggled independently. Most traders show Band 1 by default and add Band 2 and 3 for specific setups or volatile instruments.
Multi-Timeframe VWAP System
The MTF section plots previous period VWAPs as horizontal support and resistance levels:
Daily VWAP - Previous day's final VWAP value. Key intraday reference level.
Weekly VWAP - Previous week's final VWAP. Important for swing traders.
Monthly VWAP - Previous month's final VWAP. Institutional benchmark level.
Quarterly VWAP - Previous quarter's final VWAP. Major support/resistance for position traders.
Previous Day VWAP - Yesterday's closing VWAP specifically, separate from current daily calculation.
The Confluence Zone percentage setting determines how close multiple VWAPs must be to trigger a confluence alert. When two or more timeframe VWAPs converge within this threshold, you get a high-probability support/resistance zone.
Session VWAPs for Global Markets
For forex, crypto, and futures traders who operate in 24/7 markets, the indicator tracks three major global sessions:
Asia Session - UTC 21:00 to 08:00. Gold colored line. Typically lower volatility, range-bound action that sets overnight levels.
London Session - UTC 08:00 to 17:00. Orange colored line. Often determines daily direction with high volume European participation.
New York Session - UTC 13:00 to 22:00. Blue colored line. Highest volume session globally. Sharp directional moves common.
Previous session VWAP values display as horizontal lines when each session closes, acting as intraday support and resistance. The table shows which sessions are currently active with checkmarks.
On-Chart Labels and Signals
The indicator plots several types of labels directly on price action when significant events occur:
Volume Spike Labels
Fire when current bar volume exceeds configurable thresholds relative to both the previous bar and the 20-bar average. Default settings require 300% of previous bar AND 200% of average volume. Green labels indicate bullish candles. Red labels indicate bearish candles. These spikes often mark institutional entry points.
Momentum Shift Labels
Appear when VWAP acceleration changes direction. The Slowing label warns when an active trend loses steam, often preceding reversal. The Accelerating label confirms trend continuation or potential bottom during downtrends. Filters available to show only reversal signals in existing trends.
VWAP Squeeze Labels
Detect when standard deviation bands contract relative to ATR (Average True Range). Low volatility compression often precedes explosive breakout moves. When the squeeze fires (releases), a label appears with directional prediction based on VWAP slope.
Divergence Labels
Mark price/volume divergences using CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta) analysis:
Bullish divergence: Price makes lower low, but CVD makes higher low. Hidden accumulation despite price weakness.
Bearish divergence: Price makes higher high, but CVD makes lower high. Hidden distribution despite price strength.
Dynamic VWAP Coloring
The main VWAP line changes color based on its slope direction:
Green - VWAP is rising. Institutional buying pressure. Volume-weighted price increasing.
Red - VWAP is falling. Institutional selling pressure. Volume-weighted price decreasing.
Gray - VWAP is flat. Consolidation or balance between buyers and sellers.
This coloring can be disabled for a static blue line if you prefer cleaner visuals. The VWAP label next to the line shows the current trend direction and delta percentage.
Calculated Projection Cone
One of the most powerful features is the Calculated Projection Cone. Unlike traditional extrapolation methods that simply extend a trend line forward, this system analyzes what actually happened in similar market conditions throughout the chart's history.
How It Works:
The system classifies each bar into one of 27 unique market states:
Z-Score Level - LOW (oversold), MID (fair value), or HIGH (overbought) based on configurable thresholds
Trend Direction - DOWN, FLAT, or UP based on VWAP slope
Volume Profile - LOW (below 80%), NORMAL (80-150%), or HIGH (above 150%) relative volume
When you look at the current bar, the indicator:
1. Identifies the current market state (e.g., LOW Z-Score + UP Trend + HIGH Volume)
2. Searches through all historical bars on the chart that had the same state
3. Calculates what happened in those bars X bars later (where X is your projection horizon)
4. Shows you the probability of up/down and the average move size
Visual Elements:
Probability Cone - Colored green (bullish probability above 55%), red (bearish below 45%), or gold (neutral). The cone width represents the historical range of outcomes (roughly the 20th to 80th percentile).
Center Line - Shows the average expected price based on historical outcomes in similar conditions.
Probability Label - Displays direction probability and average move. Example: "67% UP (+0.8%)" means 67% of similar past cases moved up, averaging 0.8% gain.
Fallback System:
When the exact 27-state match has insufficient historical data:
First fallback: Uses Z-Score plus Trend only (9 broader states, ignoring volume)
Second fallback: Uses Z-Score only (3 states)
When fallback is active, confidence automatically adjusts
Settings:
Projection Horizon - How many bars forward to analyze outcomes (5, 10, 15, or 20 bars, default 10)
Lookback Period - Historical data window in days (30-252, default 60)
Minimum Samples - Cases needed before using fallback (5-30, default 10)
Z-Score Threshold - Bucket boundary for LOW/MID/HIGH classification (1.0, 1.5, or 2.0 sigma)
Cloud Transparency - Adjust visibility (50-95%)
Colors - Customize bullish, bearish, and neutral cone colors
Confidence Levels:
HIGH - 30 or more similar historical cases found
MEDIUM - 15-29 similar cases
LOW - Fewer than 15 cases (more uncertainty)
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER:
The Calculated Projection is based on past patterns only. It is NOT a price prediction or financial advice. Similar market states in the past do not guarantee similar outcomes in the future. The probability shown is historical frequency, not a guarantee. Always combine with other analysis and never rely solely on projections for trading decisions.

The Info Table - Your Trading Dashboard
The right side of your chart displays a compact table with up to twelve metrics.
Row-by-Row Breakdown:
Asset and Period - Shows what the indicator detected (US Stock, Crypto, Forex, etc.) and your selected anchor period. The detection happens automatically based on exchange data, so VWAP resets and calculations match your actual trading instrument.
Delta Percentage - How far current price sits from VWAP, expressed as a percentage. Positive means price trades above fair value. Negative means below. Large delta values (beyond 1-2%) often precede mean reversion moves. Day traders watch this for overextension.
Z-Score - Statistical deviation from VWAP measured in standard deviations. Unlike raw delta, Z-Score accounts for volatility. A 2% move in a volatile biotech stock differs from 2% in a stable utility. Z-Score normalizes this. Values beyond plus or minus two sigma occur only 5% of the time statistically.
Trend Direction - Whether VWAP itself is rising, falling, or flat. Rising VWAP means the volume-weighted average price is increasing, which indicates institutional accumulation. Falling VWAP suggests distribution. This differs from price trend since it weights by volume.
Momentum State - Is the trend accelerating or slowing down? This measures the rate of change in VWAP slope. When an uptrend shows slowing momentum, it often precedes reversal. Accelerating momentum in a downtrend can signal capitulation and potential bottom.
Relative Volume - Current bar volume compared to the 20-bar average, shown as percentage. Values above 150% indicate above-average activity. Spikes above 200-300% often mark institutional involvement. Low volume (below 80%) warns of potential fake moves.
MTF Bias - Four checkmarks or X marks showing whether price sits above or below Daily, Weekly, Monthly, and Quarterly VWAP. Four checkmarks means strong bullish alignment across all timeframes. Four X marks indicates bearish alignment. Mixed readings suggest consolidation or transition.
Band Probabilities - Historical statistics showing how often price touched each standard deviation band over your lookback period. This helps you understand if mean reversion or trend following works better for your specific instrument.
Session Status - Which global trading sessions are currently active (Asia, London, New York). Shows checkmarks for active sessions. Important for forex and crypto traders who need to know when major liquidity windows open and close.
Divergence State - Whether the indicator detects bullish or bearish divergence between price and cumulative volume delta. Bullish divergence occurs when price makes lower lows but buying pressure (CVD) makes higher lows, suggesting hidden accumulation.
Confidence Score - A weighted composite of all factors displayed as a progress bar and percentage. Combines MTF alignment, Z-Score, trend direction, volume delta, momentum, and relative volume into a single 0-100 score. Higher scores indicate stronger conviction setups.
Calculated Projection - When the Projection Cone is enabled, shows the historical probability of price direction and expected move. For example: "▲ 67% (+0.8%)" means in similar market states historically, price moved up 67% of the time with an average gain of 0.8%. The system analyzes 27 unique market states based on Z-Score, Trend, and Volume conditions.
Recommended Use Cases
Day Trading Stocks:
Use Session anchor with Band 1 visible. Watch for price returning to VWAP after morning move. Volume spikes near VWAP often mark institutional accumulation zones.
Swing Trading:
Use Weekly or Rolling 21D anchor. Enable MTF lines for Daily and Weekly levels. Trade pullbacks to these levels in direction of MTF bias.
Crypto and Forex:
Enable Session VWAPs. Use Rolling anchors to avoid artificial resets. Monitor session transitions for breakout opportunities.
Mean Reversion:
Focus on Z-Score reaching plus or minus two. Add Band 2 visibility. Combine with slowing momentum for highest probability reversals.
Trend Following:
Watch MTF bias alignment. Four checkmarks plus accelerating momentum plus high volume confirms trend continuation setups.
Projection Planning:
Enable the Calculated Projection to see what happened historically in similar market conditions. Use 5-10 bars for intraday setups, 15-20 bars for swing trade planning. Focus on high probability readings (above 60%) with HIGH confidence (30 or more samples). The cone shows the probable range of outcomes based on actual historical data. Combine with other factors like MTF alignment and volume for higher conviction setups.
Important Notes
The indicator does not repaint. MTF values use previous period's confirmed data.
Rolling VWAP works best on 15-minute timeframes and above due to bar lookback requirements.
Session VWAPs apply to global markets by default (forex, crypto, futures). Enable the all-assets option for stocks if desired.
Volume data for forex represents tick volume, not actual traded volume.
All alert conditions fire only on confirmed (closed) bars to prevent false signals.
The Calculated Projection updates each bar as market state changes. This is expected behavior. The projection shows probabilities based on similar past conditions, not a fixed prediction.
Q AND A
Q: Does this indicator repaint?
A: No. The main VWAP calculation uses standard TradingView VWAP methodology. Multi-timeframe values use previous period's confirmed data with appropriate lookahead settings. All alert signals require bar confirmation.
Q: Why does my Rolling VWAP look different on 1-minute versus 15-minute charts?
A: Rolling VWAP calculates across a fixed number of trading days. On very short timeframes, the bar lookback may hit TradingView limits. For best Rolling VWAP accuracy, use 15-minute or higher timeframes.
Q: Can I use this on any instrument?
A: Yes. The indicator automatically detects asset type and adjusts behavior. Stocks use standard market hours. Crypto uses 24/7 calculations. Forex uses tick volume. Everything adapts automatically.
Q: What does the Confidence Score actually measure?
A: The score combines six weighted factors: MTF alignment (25%), Z-Score position (20%), Trend direction (20%), CVD pressure (15%), Momentum state (10%), and Relative volume (10%). Higher scores indicate more factors aligned in one direction.
Q: Why are Session VWAPs not showing on my stock chart?
A: Session VWAPs apply to 24-hour markets by default (forex, crypto, futures). For stocks, enable the Use for All Assets option in Session VWAP settings.
Q: The Divergence labels appear delayed. Is this a bug?
A: Divergence detection requires pivot confirmation, which needs bars on both sides of the pivot point. The label appears at the actual pivot location (several bars back) once confirmed. This is intentional and prevents false signals.
Q: Can I change the band colors?
A: Yes. Each of the three bands has its own color input setting. You can customize Band 1, Band 2, and Band 3 colors to match your preferences. The defaults are Aqua, Fuchsia, and Purple. The main VWAP line color adapts dynamically based on slope direction or can be set to static blue.
Q: How do I set up alerts?
A: Right-click on the chart, select Add Alert, choose this indicator, and select your desired condition from the dropdown. All conditions include descriptive alert messages with relevant data.
Q: What is the Probability Engine lookback period?
A: This setting determines how many trading days the indicator analyzes to calculate band touch rates and mean reversion statistics. Default is 60 days (approximately 3 months). Longer periods provide more stable statistics but may miss recent behavior changes.
Q: Why do I see fewer labels than expected?
A: Signal labels (Volume, Momentum, Squeeze, Divergence) are limited to 5 most recent labels on the chart to keep it clean. When a new label appears, the oldest one is automatically removed. Additionally, momentum labels have several filters: check the slope multiplier setting (higher values require stronger trends) and the Only Reversal Signals option (when enabled, labels only appear for potential reversals, not trend confirmations).
Q: What is the Calculated Projection and how accurate is it?
A: The Calculated Projection analyzes what happened in past market conditions similar to the current state. It classifies each bar by Z-Score level, Trend direction, and Volume profile (27 unique states), then shows the historical probability of up vs down and the average move size. It is NOT a price prediction or guarantee. The probability shown is how often similar conditions led to up/down moves historically, not a future guarantee. Always use it as one input among many.
Q: Why does the Projection probability change?
A: The projection updates on each bar as market state changes. If Z-Score moves from LOW to MID, or trend shifts from UP to FLAT, the system looks up a different historical category. This is expected behavior. The projection shows what happened in similar past conditions to the current bar's state.
Q: The Projection shows LOW confidence. What does that mean?
A: Confidence levels indicate sample size: HIGH means 30 or more historical cases found, MEDIUM means 15-29 cases, LOW means fewer than 15 cases. When sample size is low, the system uses a fallback: first aggregating by Z-Score plus Trend only (ignoring volume), then by Z-Score only. LOW confidence means less statistical reliability, so weight other factors more heavily in your decision.
Q: Why does the cone sometimes show 50/50 probability?
A: A 50/50 reading means that in similar past market states, price moved up roughly half the time and down half the time. This indicates a neutral or balanced condition where historical patterns provide no directional edge. Consider waiting for a higher probability setup or using other analysis methods.
