Level Targeting Heatmap (Effort -Targets)

Level Targeting — Volume-Based Heatmap
Level Targeting visualizes price zones where the market previously approached with elevated relative volume.
These zones represent targets, not signals.
The indicator is built on a simple idea:
price moves with effort, and effort is expressed through volume.
⸻
What it shows
• Heatmap zones where price was approached on high relative volume
• Zones represent price ranges, not exact levels
• Stronger zones indicate repeated market interest
• Separate visualization for zones above and below current price
• Optional focus on nearest targets or recently active zones
⸻
How to read it
• Levels = targets
• Volume = effort
• The path to a level matters more than the level itself
• Volume anomalies are questions, not buy/sell signals
• The market is always being driven, held, or distributed
⸻
What this indicator is
✔️ A market context filter
✔️ A statistical heatmap of historical market attention
✔️ A tool to understand where the market has previously paid to be
⸻
What this indicator is not
✘ Not a buy/sell signal
✘ Not predictive on its own
✘ Not a trading system
⸻
Design philosophy
This indicator adapts naturally to timeframe and chart scale.
Zones may change with zoom level — this is intentional and reflects contextual market structure, not repainting.
Designed for analysis, not automation.
