Smart Money Breakout Channels

936
Smart Money Breakout Channels** is a TradingView indicator designed to identify key price zones where "smart money" (institutional traders) may be active, helping traders anticipate breakouts. Below is a detailed explanation based on available information:

Overview
Purpose: The indicator detects breakout zones called "Smart Money Breakout Channels" based on volatility-normalized price movements. It visualizes these as dynamic boxes with volume overlays to highlight potential accumulation or distribution ranges.
Functionality: It tracks price breakouts (upward or downward) from these zones, providing traders with actionable signals for trend continuations or reversals.


Key Concepts
Volatility-Normalized Channels: The script calculates normalized price volatility using the standard deviation of price, mapped to a [0,1] scale based on the highest and lowest prices over a lookback period. When volatility reaches a local low and flips upward, a channel (box) is drawn between the high and low prices of that zone.
Breakout Detection**: A breakout occurs when the price moves beyond the channel’s boundaries, either with a strong candle close (configurable) or by touching the boundary.
Volume Analysis: The indicator includes volume overlays within the channel, showing:
Volume Delta: Difference between buying and selling volume.
Up/Down Volume: Comparative buying vs. selling pressure.
Gradient Gauge: A visual gauge displays real-time volume delta pressure, indicating whether buying or selling momentum is building.
Smart Money Concept: Channels represent ranges where institutional traders may be accumulating or distributing positions, making breakouts from these zones significant for trend analysis

Features
Automatic Channel Detection: Identifies and draws breakout zones based on volatility pivots.
Nested Channels: Option to display multiple simultaneous zones or a single clean zone.
Volume Visualization: Offers three modes: raw volume, up/down volume, and delta.
Dynamic Gauge: A gradient-filled gauge shows current volume delta pressure within the channel.
Alerts: Configurable alerts for new channel creation, bullish breakouts, or bearish breakouts.
