Advanced Range Theory - ART📊 Advanced Range Theory (ART): The Institutional Blueprint
Stop drawing lines. Start reading the blueprint of the market. Advanced Range Theory (ART) is not another support and resistance indicator; it is a military-grade market structure engine designed to decode the language of institutional capital. It operates on a single, powerful premise: markets move in phases of consolidation and expansion, and the key to anticipation lies in understanding the complete lifecycle of these phases.
ART provides a living, breathing map of the battlefield, identifying institutional accumulation zones and tracking them with unparalleled precision from their inception as "Pending" ranges to their ultimate classification after a breakout. This is your X-ray into the market's skeletal structure.
🔬 THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK: THE ARCHITECTURE OF PRICE ACTION
ART is built on a multi-layered system of logic that moves beyond static levels. It treats ranges as dynamic entities with a narrative—a beginning, a middle, and an end. The core of the system is the dynamic classification engine, which analyzes not just the range, but the character of the price action that resolves it.
1. The Range Lifecycle: From Accumulation to Classification
This is the revolutionary heart of ART. A range's true identity is only revealed by how it is broken.
Phase 1: PENDING (Yellow): A new range is identified based on a period of price consolidation (a "parent" candle followed by a minimum number of "inside" candles). At this stage, it is a neutral zone of potential energy—an area where institutions are likely building positions. It is a question the market has not yet answered.
Phase 2: MITIGATION & CLASSIFICATION: When price breaks out and reaches a calculated extension level, the range is considered "mitigated." At this exact moment, ART analyzes the breakout's DNA to classify the range's true intent:
TYPE 1 - BREAKOUT (Blue): Characterized by a strong, impulsive move with confirming volume. This is a high-conviction breakout, signaling aggressive institutional participation and the likely start of a new trend. It is a statement of intent.
TYPE 2 - REVERSAL (Orange): Occurs when price attempts to break one way but is aggressively rejected, reversing and breaking out the other side. This signals absorption and a "failed auction," often marking significant market turning points.
TYPE 3 - PIVOT (Green): A more balanced breakout, lacking the explosive momentum of a Type 1. This often represents a resolution after a period of indecision or a pivot within a larger trading range.
2. The Hierarchical Map: Source & S/R Levels
ART doesn't just draw boxes; it builds a genealogical map of market structure.
SOURCE LEVEL (Thick Gold Line): This is the "genesis" point—the most recently mitigated range. It acts as the primary point of origin for the current market swing and serves as a critical level for determining overall bias. Price action above the Source is generally bullish; below is bearish.
S/R LEVELS (Cyan Lines): When a range is mitigated, the price level where it broke becomes a key Support/Resistance zone for the future. ART tracks the two most recent S/R levels, as these often act as powerful magnets or rejection points for price.
3. The Multi-Factor Validation Engine
To eliminate noise and focus only on institutionally significant ranges, every potential range must pass a rigorous quality control check:
Time-Based Consolidation: Requires a minimum number of consecutive inside candles (minInsideCandles), ensuring a true period of balance.
Volatility-Based Significance: The range's size must be greater than a multiple of the Average True Range (minRangeSize), filtering out insignificant micro-consolidations.
Participation Confirmation: The parent candle of the range is checked against average volume to ensure there was meaningful activity during its formation.
⚙️ THE COMMAND CONSOLE: CONFIGURING YOUR ART ENGINE
Every input is designed to give you granular control over the detection engine, allowing you to tune ART to any market or timeframe with precision. Each tooltip in the script provides a deep dive, but here is a summary of the core controls.
🎯 ART Detection Engine
Minimum Inside Candles: The soul of the detection algorithm. It defines the minimum number of bars that must be contained within a single "parent" candle to qualify as a range. Higher values (3-4) find major, significant consolidation zones. Lower values (1-2) are more sensitive and will identify shorter-term accumulation patterns.
Extension Multiplier & Fibonacci Extension: These control the profit target projections. The Extension Multiplier uses a simple measured move (e.g., 1.0 = a 1:1 projection of the range's height). The Fibonacci Extension uses the golden ratio (1.618) for harmonically-derived targets.
Mitigation Method (Cross vs. Close): Determines how a breakout is confirmed. Cross is more responsive, triggering as soon as price touches the extension. Close is more conservative, requiring a full candle to close beyond the level, which helps filter out fake-outs from wicks.
Min Range Size (ATR): A crucial noise filter. It ensures that ART ignores tiny, insignificant ranges by requiring a range's height to be a certain multiple of the current market volatility (ATR).
📊 Display & Visual Configuration
These settings give you full control over the visual interface. You can toggle every single element—from the Webb Scanner to the S/R Levels—to create a clean or a comprehensive view. Choose a color theme that suits your charting environment or define a fully custom palette.
🕸️ Webb Analysis Scanner
This is a unique real-time flow analysis tool. It draws dynamic, animated lines from the current price to recent historical points. This visualization helps reveal hidden "tendrils" of momentum and short-term support/resistance that are not immediately obvious, acting as a "sonar" for immediate price flow.
📊 THE ANALYTICS HUB: YOUR DASHBOARD DECODED
The dashboard provides a real-time, at-a-glance intelligence briefing on the current state of market structure as seen by the ART engine.
RANGE METRICS: This section is a "census" of the market's structure. It tells you the total number of ranges identified, how many are still Pending (awaiting a breakout), how many are Unmitigated (active but not yet broken), and how many have been Mitigated (classified and complete).
TYPE BREAKDOWN: This is a powerful gauge of market character. A high count of Type 1 (Breakout) ranges suggests a strong, trending environment. A rising number of Type 2 (Reversal) ranges can signal market exhaustion and potential trend changes. A dominant Type 3 (Pivot) count indicates a balanced, rotational market.
KEY GUIDE: The Large dashboard includes a full legend, so you never have to guess what a line or color represents. It's your built-in user manual.
🎨 DECODING THE BLUEPRINT: A VISUAL INTERPRETATION GUIDE
Every line and color in ART is designed for instant, intuitive understanding.
The Range Lines:
Yellow Lines: A Pending range. This is an active zone of accumulation. Pay close attention.
Colored Lines (Blue/Orange/Green): An unmitigated, classified range. The color tells you its breakout character.
Dotted Lines: A Mitigated range. Its story has been told. These historical levels can still act as support or resistance.
The Identification Zones: These colored boxes appear at a range's origin point after it has been classified. They are the "birth certificate" of the range, permanently marking its type (Breakout, Reversal, or Pivot) and providing an immediate visual history of market behavior.
The Hierarchical Lines:
Thick Gold Line (Source): The most important line on your chart. It is the anchor for your bias.
Cyan Lines (S/R): High-probability decision points. Expect reactions here.
Purple Dotted Lines (Extensions): Logical, calculated profit targets for breaking ranges.
🔧 THE ARCHITECT'S VISION: THE DEVELOPMENT JOURNEY
ART was born from a deep frustration with the static and subjective nature of traditional market structure analysis. Drawing lines by hand is inconsistent, and most indicators are reactive, only confirming what has already happened. The goal was to create a proactive, objective, and dynamic framework that could think about the market in terms of phases and lifecycles.
The breakthrough came from a simple shift in perspective: a range's true character isn't defined when it forms, but by how it resolves. This led to the development of the "post-breakout classification engine," which waits for the market to show its hand before assigning a definitive type. The Webb Scanner was inspired by the desire to visualize the unseen, to create a tool that could feel the immediate "pull" and "push" of price flow. The result is not just an indicator; it is a new language for interpreting price action, built on a foundation of logic, clarity, and precision.
⚠️ RISK DISCLAIMER & BEST PRACTICES
Advanced Range Theory is a professional-grade analytical tool designed to enhance a trader's decision-making process. It does not provide direct buy or sell signals. The levels and classifications it generates are based on historical price action and mathematical probabilities. All trading involves substantial risk, and past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use this tool in conjunction with a robust risk management plan.

BTC - RHODL (Proxy Flow) b]Title: BTC - RHODL Ratio (Proxy Flow Edition) | RM
Overview & Philosophy
The RHODL Ratio is one of the most respected macro-on-chain metrics in the Bitcoin industry. Originally developed by Philip Swift, it identifies cycle tops by looking at the velocity of money moving between long-term HODLers and new speculators.
Why a "Proxy" instead of the "Original"? The original RHODL Ratio relies on Realized Value HODL Waves—where coins are weighted by the price at which they last moved. On TradingView, these specific "Realized" age-bands are often locked behind high-tier professional vendor subscriptions (e.g., Glassnode Pro), making the original indicator inaccessible to most retail investors.
To solve this, I present this Proxy Flow Edition. Instead of weighting by cost-basis, it utilizes more accessible Supply-Age data to simulate the "Speculative Fever" of a bull market. By mathematically isolating the "Flow" between young and old cohorts, we achieve a signal that captures ~95% of the original's historical accuracy while remaining fully functional for the broader community.
Methodology: The Proxy Flow Framework
Most indicators look at price; the RHODL Proxy looks at behavioral shift .
1. The Young vs. Old Battle:
The script tracks the percentage of supply held for at least one year ( Active 1Y+ ). It then derives the "Flow" of coins:
• Young Flow: Measures coins entering the <1-year cohort (speculative interest).
• Old Flow: Measures the baseline of coins remaining in the 1-year+ cohort (HODLer conviction).
2. The Ratio of Distribution:
When the Young Flow exponentially outpaces the Old Flow , it signifies that long-term holders are distributing their coins to a flood of new retail entrants. Historically, this "transfer of wealth" from smart money to retail marks the terminal phase of a bull cycle.
3. Age Normalization:
Bitcoin’s network naturally matures over time. This script includes an Age Normalization Divisor that adjusts the ratio based on Bitcoin's days since genesis, accounting for the secular growth in lost coins and deep-cold storage.
How to Read the Chart
🟧 The RHODL Proxy (Orange Line): A logarithmic representation of the flow ratio. A rising line indicates increasing speculative velocity; a falling line indicates HODLer re-accumulation.
🔴 The Overheated Zone (> 0.5): The danger zone. This area captures the "Speculative Fever" typical of cycle peaks. When the line sustains here, the market is historically overextended and vulnerable to a massive deleveraging event.
🟢 The Accumulation Zone (< -0.5): The maximum opportunity zone. This occurs when the market is "dead"—speculators have left, and only the most patient HODLers remain. Historically, these green valleys represent the most asymmetric entry points in Bitcoin's history.
Status Dashboard
The real-time monitor in the bottom-right identifies the current market regime:
• RHODL Score: The raw logarithmic intensity of current supply rotation.
• Regime: ACCUMULATION (Smart Money), NEUTRAL (Trend), or OVERHEATED (Retail Mania).

VB-MainLiteVB-MainLite – v1.0 Initial Release
Overview
VB-MainLite is a consolidated market-structure and execution framework designed to streamline decision-making into a single chart-level view. The script combines multi-timeframe trend, volatility, volume, and liquidity signals into one cohesive visual layer, reducing indicator clutter while preserving depth of information for active traders.
Core Architecture
Trend Backbone – EMA 200
Dedicated EMA 200 acts as the primary trend filter and higher-timeframe bias reference.
Serves as the “spine” of the system for contextualizing all secondary signals (swings, reversals, volume events, etc.).
Custom MA Suite (Envelope Ready)
Four configurable moving averages with flexible source, length, and smoothing.
Default configuration (preset idea: “8/89 Envelope”):
MA #1: EMA 8 on high
MA #2: EMA 8 on low
MA #3: EMA 89 on high
MA #4: EMA 89 on low
All four are disabled by default to keep the chart minimal. Users can toggle them on from the Custom MAs group for envelope or cloud-style configurations.
Nadaraya–Watson Smoother (Swing Framework)
Gaussian-kernel Nadaraya–Watson regression applied to price (hl2) to build a smooth synthetic curve.
Two layers of functionality:
Swing labels (▲ / ▼) at inflection points in the smoothed curve.
Optional curve line that visually tracks the turning structure over the last ~500 bars.
Designed to surface early swing potential before standard MAs react.
Hull Moving Average (Trend Overlay)
Optional Hull MA (HMA) for faster trend visualization.
Color-coded by slope (buy/sell bias).
Default: off to prevent overloading the chart; can be enabled under Hull MA settings.
Momentum, Exhaustion & Pattern Engine
CCI-Based Bar Coloring
CCI applied to close with configurable thresholds.
Overbought / oversold CCI zones map directly into candle coloring to visually highlight short-term momentum extremes.
RSI Top / Bottom Exhaustion Finder
RSI logic applied separately to high-driven (tops) and low-driven (bottoms) sequences.
Plots:
Top arrows where high-side RSI stretches into high-risk territory.
Bottom arrows where low-side RSI indicates exhaustion on the downside.
Useful as confluence around the Nadaraya swing turns and EMA 200 regime.
Engulfing + MA Trend Engine (“Fat Bull / Fat Bear”)
Detects bullish and bearish engulfing patterns, then combines them with MA trend cross logic.
Only when both pattern and MA regime align does the engine flag:
Fat Bull (Engulf + MA aligned long)
Fat Bear (Engulf + MA aligned short)
Candles are marked via conditional barcolor to highlight strong, structured shifts in control.
Fat Finger Detection (Wick Spikes / Stop Runs)
Identifies abnormal wick extensions relative to the prior bar’s body range with configurable tolerance.
Supports detection of potential liquidity grabs, stop runs, or “excess” that may precede reversals or mean-reversion behavior.
Volume & Liquidity Intelligence
Bull Snort (Aggressive Buy Spikes)
Flags events where:
Volume is significantly above the 50-period average, and
Price closes in the upper portion of the bar and above prior close.
Plots a labeled marker below the bar to indicate aggressive upside initiative by buyers.
Pocket Pivots (Accumulation Flags)
Compares current volume vs prior 10 sessions with a filter on prior “up” days.
Highlights pocket pivot days where current green candle volume outclasses recent down-day volumes, suggesting stealth accumulation.
Delta Volume Core (Directional Volume by Price)
Internal volume-by-price style engine over a user-defined lookback.
Splits volume into up-close and down-close buckets across dynamic price bins.
Feeds into S&R and ICT zone logic to quantify where buying vs selling pressure built up.
Structural Context: S&R and ICT Zones
S&R Power Channel
Computes local high/low band over a configurable lookback window.
Renders:
Upper and lower S&R channel lines.
Shaded support / resistance zones using boxes.
Adds Buy Power / Sell Power metrics based on the ratio of up vs down bars inside the window, displayed directly in the zone overlays.
Drops ◈ markers where price interacts dynamically with the top or bottom band, highlighting reaction points.
ICT-Style Premium / Discount & Macro Zones
Two tiered structures:
Local Premium / Discount zones over a shorter SR window.
Macro Premium / Discount zones over a longer macro window.
Each zone:
Uses underlying directional volume to annotate accumulation vs distribution bias.
Provides Delta Volume Bias shading in the mid-band region, visually encoding whether local power flows are net-buying or net-selling.
Enables traders to quickly see whether current trade location is in a local/macro discount or premium context while still respecting volume profile.
Positioning Intelligence: PCD (Stocks)
Position Cost Distribution (PCD) – Stocks Only
Available for stock symbols on intraday up to daily timeframe (≤ 1D).
Uses:
TOTAL_SHARES_OUTSTANDING fundamentals,
Daily OHLCV snapshot, and
A bucketed distribution engine
to approximate cost basis distribution across price.
Outputs:
Horizontal “PCD bars” to the right of current price, density-scaled by estimated share concentration.
Color-coding by profitability relative to current price (profitable vs unprofitable positions).
Labels for:
Current price
Average cost
Profit ratio (share % below current price)
90% cost range
70% cost range
Range overlap as a measure of clustering / concentration.
Multi-Timeframe Trend: Two-Pole Gaussian Dashboard
Two-Pole Gaussian Filter (Line + Cloud)
Smooths a user-selected source (default: close) using a two-pole Gaussian filter with tunable alpha.
Plots:
A thin Gaussian trend line, and
A thick Gaussian “cloud” line with transparency, colored by slope vs past (offsetG).
Functions as a responsive trend backbone that is more sensitive than EMA 200 but less noisy than raw price.
Multi-Timeframe Gaussian Dashboard
Evaluates Gaussian trend direction across up to six timeframes (e.g., 1H / 2H / 4H / Daily / Weekly).
Renders a compact bottom-right table:
Header: symbol + overall bias arrow (up / down) based on average trend alignment.
Row of colored cells per timeframe (green for uptrend, magenta for downtrend) with human-readable TF labels (e.g., “60M”, “4H”, “1D”).
Gives an immediate read on whether intraday, swing, and higher-timeframe flows are aligned or fragmented.
Default Configuration & Usage Guidance
Default state after adding the script:
Enabled by default:
EMA 200 trend backbone
Nadaraya–Watson swing labels and curve
CCI bar coloring
RSI top/bottom arrows
Fat Bull / Fat Bear engine
Bull Snort & Pocket Pivots
S&R Power Channel
ICT Local + Macro zones
Two-pole Gaussian line + cloud + dashboard
PCD engine for stocks (auto-active where data is available)
Disabled by default (opt-in):
Custom MA suite (4x MAs, preset as EMA 8/8/89/89)
Hull MA overlay
How traders can use VB-MainLite in practice:
Use EMA 200 + Gaussian dashboard to define top-down directional bias and avoid trading directly against multi-TF trend.
Use Nadaraya swing labels, RSI exhaustion arrows, and CCI bar colors to time entries within that higher-timeframe bias.
Use Fat Bull / Fat Bear events as structured confirmation that both pattern and MA regime have flipped in the same direction.
Use Bull Snort, Pocket Pivots, and S&R / ICT zones to align execution with liquidity, volume, and location (premium vs discount).
On stocks, use PCD as a positioning map to understand trapped supply, support zones near crowded cost basis, and where profit-taking is likely.
Volume Pressure OscillatorThe Volume Pressure Oscillator (VPO) is a momentum-based indicator that measures the directional pressure of cumulative volume delta (CVD) combined with price efficiency. It oscillates between 0 and 100, with readings above 50 indicating net buying pressure and readings below 50 indicating net selling pressure.
The indicator is designed to identify the strength and sustainability of volume-driven trends while remaining responsive during consolidation periods.
How the Indicator Works
The VPO analyzes volume flow by examining price action at lower timeframes to build a Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD). For each chart bar, the indicator looks at intrabar price movements to classify volume as either buying volume or selling volume. These classifications are accumulated into a running total that tracks net directional volume.
The indicator then measures the momentum of this CVD over both short-term and longer-term periods, providing responsiveness to recent changes while maintaining awareness of the broader trend. These momentum readings are normalized using percentile ranking, which creates a stable 0-100 scale that works consistently across different instruments and market conditions.
A key feature is the extreme zone persistence mechanism. When the indicator enters extreme zones (above 80 or below 20), it maintains elevated readings as long as volume pressure continues in the same direction. This allows the VPO to stay in extreme zones during strong trends rather than quickly reverting to neutral, making it useful for identifying sustained volume pressure rather than just temporary spikes.
What Makes This Indicator Different
While many indicators measure volume or volume delta, the VPO specifically measures how aggressively CVD is currently changing and whether that pressure is being sustained. It's the difference between knowing "more volume has accumulated on the buy side" versus "buying pressure is intensifying right now and shows signs of continuation."
1. Focus on CVD Momentum, Not CVD Levels
Most CVD indicators display the cumulative volume delta as a line that trends up or down indefinitely. The VPO is fundamentally different - it measures the slope of CVD rather than the absolute level. This transforms CVD from an unbounded cumulative metric into a bounded 0-100 oscillator that shows the intensity and direction of current volume pressure, not just the historical accumulation.
2. Designed to Stay in Extremes During Trends
Unlike traditional oscillators that treat extreme readings (above 80 or below 20) as overbought/oversold reversal signals, the VPO is engineered to oscillate within extreme zones during strong trends. When sustained buying or selling pressure exists, the indicator remains elevated (e.g., 80-95 or 5-20) rather than quickly reverting to neutral. This makes it useful for trend continuation identification rather than exclusively for reversal trading.
3. Percentile-Based Normalization
The VPO uses percentile ranking over a lookback window, which provides consistent behavior across different instruments, timeframes, and volatility regimes without constant recalibration.
4. Dual-Timeframe Momentum Synthesis
The indicator simultaneously considers short-term CVD momentum (responsive to recent changes) and longer-term CVD momentum (tracking trend direction), weighted and combined with a slow-moving trend bias. This multi-timeframe approach helps it stay responsive in ranging markets while maintaining context during trends.
How to Use the Indicator
Understanding the Zones:
80-100 (Strong Buying Pressure): CVD momentum is strongly positive. In trending markets, the indicator oscillates within this zone rather than immediately reverting to neutral. This suggests sustained accumulation and trend continuation probability.
60-80 (Moderate Buying): Positive volume pressure but not extreme. Suitable for identifying pullback entry opportunities within uptrends.
40-60 (Neutral Zone): Volume pressure is balanced or unclear. No strong directional edge from volume. Often seen during consolidation or trend transitions.
20-40 (Moderate Selling): Negative volume pressure developing. May indicate distribution or downtrend continuation setups.
0-20 (Strong Selling Pressure): CVD momentum is strongly negative. During downtrends, sustained readings in this zone suggest continued distribution and downside follow-through probability.
Practical Applications:
Trend Confirmation: When price makes new highs/lows, check if VPO confirms with similarly elevated readings. Divergences (price making new highs while VPO fails to reach prior highs) may indicate weakening momentum.
Range Trading: During consolidation, the VPO typically oscillates between 30-70. Readings toward the low end of the range (30-40) may present accumulation opportunities, while readings at the high end (60-70) may indicate distribution zones.
Extreme Persistence: If VPO reaches 90+ or drops below 10, this indicates exceptional volume pressure. Rather than fading these extremes immediately, monitor whether the indicator stays elevated. Sustained extreme readings suggest strong trend continuation potential.
Context with Price Action: The VPO is most effective when combined with price action or other orderflow indicators. Use the indicator to gauge whether volume is confirming or contradicting.
What the Indicator Does NOT Do:
It does not provide specific entry or exit signals
It does not predict future price direction
It does not guarantee profitable trades
It should not be used as a standalone trading system
Settings Explanation
Momentum Period (Default: 14)
This parameter controls the lookback period for CVD rate-of-change calculations.
Lower values (5-10): Make the indicator more responsive to recent volume changes. Useful for shorter-term trading and more active oscillation. May produce more whipsaws in choppy markets.
Default value (14): Provides balanced responsiveness while filtering out most noise. Suitable for swing trading and daily timeframe analysis.
Higher values (20-50): Create smoother readings and focus on longer-term volume trends. Better for position trading and reducing false signals, but with slower reaction to genuine changes in volume pressure.
Important Notes:
This indicator requires intrabar data to function properly. On some instruments or timeframes where lower timeframe data is not available, the indicator may not display.
The indicator uses request.security_lower_tf() which has a limit of intrabars. On higher timeframes, this provides extensive history, but on very low timeframes (<1-minute charts), the indicator may only cover limited historical bars.
Volume data quality varies by exchange and instrument. The indicator's effectiveness depends on accurate volume reporting from the data feed.
Continuous Partial Buying Signals v7.1🇬🇧 English Description: Continuous Partial Buying Signals v7.1
This indicator is built on a long-term accumulation philosophy , not a traditional buy-sell strategy. Its main purpose is to systematically increase your position in an asset you believe in by identifying significant price drops as buying opportunities. It is a tool designed for long-term investors who want to automate the "buy the dip" or "Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA)" mindset.
How It Works
The logic follows a simple but powerful cycle: Find a Peak -> Wait for a Drop -> Signal a Buy -> Wait for a New Peak.
1. Identifies a Significant Peak: Instead of reacting to minor price spikes, the indicator looks back over a user-defined period (e.g., the last 200 candles) to find the highest price. This stable peak (marked with an orange circle) becomes the reference point for the current cycle.
2. Waits for a Pullback: The indicator then calculates the percentage drop from this locked-in peak.
3. Generates Buy Signals: When the price drops by the percentages you define (e.g., -5% and -10%), it plots a "BUY" signal on the chart. It will only signal once per level within the same cycle.
4. Resets the Cycle: This is the key. If the price recovers and establishes a new significant peak higher than the previous one, the entire cycle resets. The new peak becomes the new reference, and the buy signals are re-armed, allowing the indicator to perpetually find new buying opportunities in a rising market.
How to Get the Most Out of This Indicator
* Timeframe: It is highly recommended to use this on higher timeframes (4H, Daily, Weekly) to align with its long-term accumulation philosophy.
* Peak Lookback Period:
* Higher values (200, 300): Create more stable and less frequent signals. Ideal for long-term, patient investors.
* Lower values (50, 100): More sensitive to recent price action, resulting in more frequent cycles.
* Drop Percentages: Adjust these based on the asset's volatility.
* Volatile assets (Crypto): Consider larger percentages like 10%, 20%.
* Less volatile assets (Stocks, Indices): Smaller percentages like 3%, 5%, 8% might be more appropriate.
This indicator is a tool for disciplined, emotion-free accumulation. It does not provide sell signals.
Chaikin Oscillator Multi-Timeframe BiasOverview
Chaikin Oscillator Multi-Timeframe Bias is an indicator designed to help traders align with institutional buying and selling activity by analyzing Chaikin Oscillator signals across two timeframes—a higher timeframe (HTF) for trend bias and a lower timeframe (LTF) for timing. This dual-confirmation model helps traders avoid false breakouts and trade in sync with market momentum and accumulation or distribution dynamics.
Core Concepts
The Chaikin Oscillator measures the momentum of accumulation and distribution based on price and volume. Institutional traders typically accumulate slowly and steadily, and the Chaikin Oscillator helps reveal this pattern. Multi-timeframe analysis confirms whether short-term price action supports the longer-term trend. This indicator applies a smoothing EMA to each Chaikin Oscillator to help confirm direction and reduce noise.
How to Use the Indicator
Start by selecting your timeframes. The higher timeframe, set by default to Daily, establishes the broader directional bias. The lower timeframe, defaulted to 30 minutes, identifies short-term momentum confirmation. The indicator displays one of five labels: CALL Bias, CALL Wait, PUT Bias, PUT Wait, or NEUTRAL. CALL Bias means both HTF and LTF are bullish, signaling a potential opportunity for long or call trades. CALL Wait indicates that the HTF is bullish, but the LTF hasn’t confirmed yet. PUT Bias signals bearish alignment in both HTF and LTF, while PUT Wait indicates HTF is bearish and LTF has not yet confirmed. NEUTRAL means there is no alignment between timeframes and directional trades are not advised.
Interpretation
When the Chaikin Oscillator is above zero and also above its EMA, this indicates bullish momentum and accumulation. When the oscillator is below zero and below its EMA, it suggests bearish momentum and distribution. Bias labels identify when both timeframes are aligned for a higher-probability directional setup. When a “Wait” label appears, it means one timeframe has confirmed bias but the other has not, suggesting the trader should monitor closely but delay entry.
Notes
This indicator includes alerts for both CALL and PUT bias confirmation when both timeframes are aligned. It works on all asset classes, including stocks, ETFs, cryptocurrencies, and futures. Timeframes are fully customizable, and users may explore combinations such as 1D and 1H, or 4H and 15M depending on their strategy. For best results, consider pairing this tool with volume, volatility, or price action analysis.

The exposure is measured on a scale from -100% (maximum short exposure) to +100% (maximum long exposure), helping traders assess the strength of their position in the market. It provides an intuitive visual cue to aid decision-making for trend-following strategies.
Buy Signals (Increase Exposure Score by +10%)
Buy Signal 1 (Cross Above 21 EMA):
This signal is triggered when the price crosses above the 21-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA), where the current bar closes above the EMA21, and the previous bar closed below the EMA21. This indicates a potential upward price movement as the market shifts into a bullish trend.
buySignal1 = ta.crossover(close, ema21)
Buy Signal 2 (Trending Above 21 EMA):
This signal is triggered when the price closes above the 21-period EMA for each of the last 5 bars, indicating a sustained bullish trend. It confirms that the price is consistently above the EMA21 for a significant period.
buySignal2 = ta.barssince(close <= ema21) > 5
Buy Signal 3 (Living Above 21 EMA):

buySignal5 = ta.crossover(close, sma200)
Buy Signal 6 (Low Above 50 SMA):
This signal is true when the lowest price of the current bar is above the 50-period SMA, indicating strong bullish pressure as the price maintains itself above the moving average.
buySignal6 = low > sma50
Buy Signal 7 (Accumulation Day):
An accumulation day occurs when the closing price is in the upper half of the daily range (greater than 50%) and the volume is larger than the previous bar's volume, suggesting buying pressure and accumulation.
buySignal7 = (close - low) / (high - low) > 0.5 and volume > volume
Buy Signal 8 (Higher High):
This signal occurs when the current bar’s high exceeds the highest high of the previous 14 bars, indicating a breakout or strong upward momentum.
buySignal8 = high > ta.highest(high, 14)
Buy Signal 9 (Key Reversal Bar):
This signal is generated when the stock opens below the low of the previous bar but rallies to close above the previous bar’s high, signaling a potential reversal from bearish to bullish.
buySignal9 = open < low and close > high
Buy Signal 10 (Distribution Day Fall Off):
This signal is triggered when a distribution day (a day with high volume and a close near the low of the range) "falls off" the rolling 25-bar period, indicating the end of a bearish trend or selling pressure.
buySignal10 = ta.barssince(close < sma50 and close < sma50) > 25
Sell Signals (Decrease Exposure Score by -10%)
Sell Signal 1 (Cross Below 21 EMA):
This signal is triggered when the price crosses below the 21-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA), where the current bar closes below the EMA21, and the previous bar closed above it. It suggests that the market may be shifting from a bullish trend to a bearish trend.
sellSignal1 = ta.crossunder(close, ema21)
Sell Signal 2 (Trending Below 21 EMA):
This signal is triggered when the price closes below the 21-period EMA for each of the last 5 bars, indicating a sustained bearish trend.
sellSignal2 = ta.barssince(close >= ema21) > 5
Sell Signal 3 (Living Below 21 EMA):
This signal is triggered when the price has closed below the 21-period EMA for each of the last 15 bars, suggesting a strong downtrend.
sellSignal3 = ta.barssince(close >= ema21) > 15
Sell Signal 4 (Cross Below 50 SMA):
This signal is triggered when the price crosses below the 50-period Simple Moving Average (SMA), where the current bar closes below the 50 SMA, and the previous bar closed above it. It indicates the start of a bearish trend.
sellSignal4 = ta.crossunder(close, sma50)

sellSignal5 = ta.crossunder(close, sma200)
Sell Signal 6 (High Below 50 SMA):
This signal is true when the highest price of the current bar is below the 50-period SMA, indicating weak bullishness or a potential bearish reversal.
sellSignal6 = high < sma50
Sell Signal 7 (Distribution Day):
A distribution day is identified when the closing range of a bar is less than 50% and the volume is larger than the previous bar's volume, suggesting that selling pressure is increasing.
sellSignal7 = (close - low) / (high - low) < 0.5 and volume > volume
Sell Signal 8 (Lower Low):
This signal occurs when the current bar's low is less than the lowest low of the previous 14 bars, indicating a breakdown or strong downward momentum.
sellSignal8 = low < ta.lowest(low, 14)
Sell Signal 9 (Downside Reversal Bar):
A downside reversal bar occurs when the stock opens above the previous bar's high but falls to close below the previous bar’s low, signaling a reversal from bullish to bearish.
sellSignal9 = open > high and close < low
Sell Signal 10 (Distribution Cluster):
This signal is triggered when a distribution day occurs three times in the rolling 7-bar period, indicating significant selling pressure.
sellSignal10 = ta.valuewhen((close < low) and volume > volume , 1, 7) >= 3
Theme Mode:
Users can select the theme mode (Auto, Dark, or Light) to match the chart's background or to manually choose a light or dark theme for the oscillator's appearance.
Exposure Score Calculation: The script calculates a cumulative exposure score based on a series of buy and sell signals.
Buy signals increase the exposure score, while sell signals decrease it. Each signal impacts the score by ±10%.
Signal Conditions: The buy and sell signals are derived from multiple conditions, including crossovers with moving averages (EMA21, SMA50, SMA200), trend behavior, and price/volume analysis.
Oscillator Visualization: The exposure score is visualized as a line on the chart, changing color based on whether the exposure is positive (long position) or negative (short position). It is limited to the range of -100% to +100%.
Position Type: The indicator also indicates the position type based on the exposure score, labeling it as "Long," "Short," or "Neutral."
Horizontal Lines: Reference lines at 0%, 100%, and -100% visually mark neutral, increasing long, and increasing short exposure levels.
Exposure Table: A table displays the current exposure level (in percentage) and position type ("Long," "Short," or "Neutral"), updated dynamically based on the oscillator’s value.
Inputs:
Theme Mode: Choose "Auto" to use the default chart theme, or manually select "Dark" or "Light."
Usage:
This oscillator is designed to help traders track market sentiment, gauge exposure levels, and manage risk. It can be used for long-term trend-following strategies or short-term trades based on moving average crossovers and volume analysis.
The oscillator operates in conjunction with the chart’s price action and provides a visual representation of the market’s current trend strength and exposure.
Important Considerations:
Risk Management: While the exposure score provides valuable insight, it should be combined with other risk management tools and analysis for optimal trading decisions.
Signal Sensitivity: The accuracy and effectiveness of the signals depend on market conditions and may require adjustments based on the user’s trading strategy or timeframe.
Disclaimer:
This script is for educational purposes only. Trading involves significant risk, and users should carefully evaluate all market conditions and apply appropriate risk management strategies before using this tool in live trading environments.
Buy/Sell Volume Totals for PeriodThis indicator can be used to help you tell the difference between Wyckoff Accumulation and Distribution.
The idea is to add up all the Buy Volume and all the Sell Volume separately from the beginning of the Trading Range (TR) for each candle. You can define the Start and End dates in the settings of the indicator.
The indicator will show you 3 numbers of interest:
GREEN = Total Buy Volume from beginning of date range
RED = Total Sell Volume from beginning of date range
YELLOW = Ratio of Total Buy / Total Sell Volume from beginning of date range
When the Total Buy Volume exceeds the Total Sell Volume in the TR, the indicator will color the background in GREEN color, to indicate possible accumulation. Otherwise the background will be RED, to indicate possible distribution.
You can float your cursor over any candle to see the current Volume Totals at that candle from the beginning of the TR (set by you in settings to a specific date).
Here's a few examples of the indicator in action:
1) Accumulation
2) Distribution
3) Possible Re-distribution
Please note that this indicator is meant to be used in combination with other analysis techniques from the Wyckoff Methodology!
BTC - BEAM: Adaptive Multiple (Open-Source)Title: BTC - BEAM: Adaptive Multiple Cycle Oscillator | RM
Overview & Philosophy
The BTC - BEAM (Bitcoin Economics Adaptive Multiple) is a premier macro-valuation tool designed to identify the "Logarithmic Pulse" of Bitcoin's 4-year cycles. Unlike standard oscillators that lose relevance as the network grows, BEAM uses an adaptive baseline that tracks Bitcoin’s fundamental growth curve with precision.
It identifies the harmonic distance between the current price and its multi-year mean, helping you spot the rare windows of deep capitulation and terminal euphoria.
Methodology
This edition is a hardened, gap-proof and Open-Source implementation of the canonical BEAM model.
1. The 1400-Day Anchor (200 Weeks):
The model is anchored to a 1400-day Simple Moving Average. On the Weekly chart, this aligns with the legendary 200-week moving average—the historical "floor" of the Bitcoin network. It represents one full halving cycle of data.
2. Daily-Lock Architecture:
Even when viewed on the 1W chart, the script performs its calculations using Daily data. This ensures that the oscillator captures the exact peak day of a cycle, providing a "high-resolution" signal within a "low-noise" weekly environment.
3. Logarithmic Normalization:
We calculate the natural logarithm of the price-to-mean relationship, scaled by a factor of 2.5: Score = ln(Price / 1400d MA) / 2.5 This creates a standardized "Multiple" that remains comparable across all Bitcoin eras.
How to Read the Chart (1W Context)
🟧 The BEAM Line (Orange): Tracks the "macro heat" of the market. On the 1W chart, look for the slope of this line to identify cycle acceleration.
🔴 The Cycle Ceiling (Score > 1.0): Historical Cycle Tops. When the weekly candle sustains in this zone, the market has reached a state of unsustainable mania. Every major blow-off top has been captured in this red corridor.
🟢 The Cycle Floor (Score < 0.1): Generational Accumulation. On the 1W chart, these zones appear as extended "green troughs." These are the only times in history where Bitcoin is fundamentally "too cheap" relative to its 4-year trend.
The Status Dashboard
The bottom-right monitor provides immediate cycle classification:
• BEAM Score: The exact logarithmic multiple.
• Cycle Regime: ACCUMULATION , NEUTRAL , or OVERHEATED .
Credits
BitcoinEcon: For the original concept of the BEAM adaptive model.
⚠️ RECOMMENDATION: While this indicator captures daily data, it is strongly recommended to be viewed on the Weekly (1W) Timeframe. The 1W chart filters market noise and perfectly reveals the long-term "Cycle Narrative."

WAD : Whale Activity Detector🐋 WAD: Whale Activity Detector
WAD (Whale Activity Detector) automatically detects periods of abnormally high trading volume compared to the average, identifying potential whale (institutional) buy or sell activity and visualizing it directly on the chart.
🔍 How It Works
1. Buy/Sell Volume Separation
Each candle’s trading volume is categorized based on its direction:
Bullish candle → Buy volume
Bearish candle → Sell volume
This separation helps distinguish the actual strength of buying vs. selling pressure, rather than looking at total volume alone.
2. Average Volume Calculation
Over a user-defined lookback period (default: 34 bars), the indicator calculates the moving average of both buy and sell volumes, establishing a baseline for what constitutes “normal” activity.
3. Whale Activity Detection
When the current volume exceeds n times the average volume (default: 4×), the indicator flags it as a Whale Zone — a potential sign of large player involvement.
Volume surge on a bullish candle → Whale Buy
Volume surge on a bearish candle → Whale Sell
4. Visual Display
🟢 Green bars: Whale buy activity
🔴 Red bars: Whale sell activity
BUY/SELL labels: Appear above the chart when an anomaly is detected
Average line toggle: Users can turn the average volume lines on or off for clarity
5. Alerts
Whenever whale buy/sell signals are detected, real-time alerts are triggered.
Example: 🐋 Whale Buy – NVDA! 🟢
⚙️ Indicator Meaning
Rather than showing raw volume, WAD tracks “abnormal volume relative to the average.”
It filters out noise and highlights the moments where large entities begin to move.
Essentially, it visualizes intentional and impactful trades hidden within standard volume activity.
🚀 Example Use Cases
Whale accumulation tracking – Repeated strong buy signals may indicate sustained institutional accumulation.
Short-term breakout confirmation – Price often rallies shortly after whale buy signals appear.
Support/resistance analysis – Whale sell zones frequently align with short-term resistance areas.
In short:
WAD identifies when trading volume exceeds its historical norm to highlight where big money enters or exits the market.
===============================================================================
🐋 WAD : 세력 매매거래 추적기
WAD(Whale Activity Detector) 는 특정 종목의 거래량 패턴 속에서
‘평균 대비 비정상적으로 큰 거래량이 발생한 구간’을 자동으로 감지해
세력(Whale)의 매수·매도 활동을 시각화하는 지표입니다.
🔍 작동 원리
매수·매도 거래량 분리
각 캔들이 양봉인지, 음봉인지에 따라 거래량을 분리합니다.
양봉 시 발생한 거래량 → 매수 거래량(buy volume)
음봉 시 발생한 거래량 → 매도 거래량(sell volume)
이렇게 분리함으로써 단순 거래량이 아닌,
실제 매수세/매도세의 힘을 구분할 수 있습니다.
평균 거래량 계산
사용자가 지정한 기간(기본 34봉)을 기준으로
매수·매도 거래량의 이동평균선을 각각 계산합니다.
이는 ‘정상적인 거래량 수준’을 판단하는 기준선으로 활용됩니다.
이상치 탐지 (Whale Activity Detection)
현재 거래량이 평균 거래량의 n배(기본 4배)를 초과할 경우,
그 구간을 세력 개입 구간(Whale Zone) 으로 판단합니다.
양봉에서 급증 → 세력 매수 (Whale Buy)
음봉에서 급증 → 세력 매도 (Whale Sell)
시각적 표시
초록색 기둥 : 세력 매수 거래량
빨간색 기둥 : 세력 매도 거래량
라벨 표시 (BUY / SELL) : 이상치 발생 시 차트 상단에 표시
평균선 표시 옵션 : 사용자가 원할 때 평균선을 켜거나 끌 수 있음
알림(Alerts)
세력의 매수·매도 신호가 감지되면,
알림 메시지를 통해 실시간으로 통보받을 수 있습니다.
(예: 🐋 Whale Buy - NVDA! 🟢)
⚙️ 지표의 의미
단순 거래량이 아니라, ‘평균 대비 비정상적 거래량’ 을 추적합니다.
즉, “세력이 본격적으로 움직이기 시작한 구간” 만 걸러내는 지표입니다.
노이즈가 많은 거래량 차트 속에서 의도 있는 거래의 흔적을 포착할 수 있습니다.
🚀 활용 예시
세력 매집 구간 포착 : 큰 매수 시그널이 반복적으로 발생하는 구간은 세력의 누적 매집 가능성을 의미함
단기 급등 신호 확인 : 매수 이상치가 발생한 직후 가격이 급등하는 경우가 많음
지지/저항 분석과 병행 활용 : 세력 매도 구간은 단기 저항으로 작용하는 경향이 있음

Cyclical Phases of the Market🧭 Overview
“Cyclical Phases of the Market” automatically detects major market cycles by connecting swing lows and measuring the average number of bars between them.
Once it learns the rhythm of past cycles, it projects the next expected cycle (in time and price) using a dashed orange line and a forecast label.
In simple terms:
The indicator shows where the next potential low is statistically expected to occur, based on the timing and depth of previous cycles.
⚙️ Core Logic – Step by Step
1️⃣ Pivot Detection
The script uses the built-in ta.pivotlow() and ta.pivothigh() functions to find local turning points:
pivotLow marks a local swing low, defined by pivotLeft and pivotRight bars on each side.
Only confirmed lows are used to define the major cycle points.
Each new pivot low is stored in two arrays:
cycleLows → price level of the low
cycleBars → bar index where the low occurred
2️⃣ Cycle Identification and Drawing
Every time two consecutive swing lows are found, the indicator:
Calculates the number of bars between them (cycle length).
If that distance is greater than or equal to minCycleBars, it draws a teal line connecting the two lows — visually representing one complete cycle.
These teal lines form the historical cycle structure of the market.
3️⃣ Average Cycle Length
Once there are at least three completed cycles, the script calculates the average duration (mean number of bars between lows).
This value — avgCycleLength — represents the dominant periodicity or cycle rhythm of the market.
4️⃣ Forecasting the Next Cycle
When a valid average cycle length exists, the model projects the next expected cycle:
Time projection:
Adds avgCycleLength to the last cycle’s ending bar index to find where the next low should occur.
Price projection:
Estimates the vertical amplitude by taking the difference between the last two cycle lows (priceDiff).
Adds this same difference to the last low price to forecast the next probable low level.
The result is drawn as an orange dashed line extending into the future, representing the Next Expected Cycle.
5️⃣ Forecast Label
An orange label 🔮 appears at the projected future point showing:
Text:
🔮 Upcoming Cycle Forecast
Price:
The label marks the probable area and timing of the next cyclical low.
(Note: the date/time calculation currently multiplies bar count by 7 days, so it’s designed mainly for daily charts. On other timeframes, that conversion can be adapted.)
📊 How to Read It on the Chart
Visual Element Meaning Interpretation
Teal lines Completed historical cycles (low to low) Show actual periodic rhythm of the market
Orange dashed line Projection of the next expected cycle Anticipated path toward the next cyclical low
Orange label 🔮 Upcoming Cycle Forecast Displays expected price and bar location
Average cycle length Internal variable (bars between lows) Represents the dominant cycle period
📈 Interpretation
When teal segments show consistent spacing, the market is following a stable rhythm → cycles are predictable.
When cycle spacing shortens, the market is accelerating (volatility rising).
When it widens, the market is slowing down or entering accumulation.
The orange dashed line represents the next expected low zone:
If the market drops near this line → cyclical pattern confirmed.
If the market breaks well below → cycle amplitude has increased (trend weakening).
If the market rises above and delays → a new longer cycle may be forming.
🧠 Practical Use
Combine with oscillators (e.g., RSI or TSI) to confirm momentum alignment near projected lows.
Use in conjunction with volume to identify accumulation or exhaustion near the expected turning point.
Compare across timeframes: weekly cycles confirm long-term rhythm; daily cycles refine short-term entries.

Nightrangers IndicatorDescription
This indicator combines three EMA's, Ichimoku Cloud, RSI and MACD. By combining and modifying their use case this turns into an extremely powerful and accessible indicator for finding long and short position entries, below is a description of how to use this indicator, and what makes it different.
Primary Use case
The three EMA's would be the initial indicators you would be looking at, they are based on the 7d, 25d and 200d MA - Used on their own, they would be worthless, and this is where the Ichimoku Cloud comes into it, I have removed all other aspects of the Ichimoku Cloud and only kept the baseline, combine this with the three MA's and we have a very powerful indicator for finding Long entries, that is used uniquely in a way to which the Ichimoku Cloud is not originally meant to be used for.
An early indication of a LONG entry would be when the 7d MA crosses above the Ichimoku Baseline, through this early indicator, you are able to watch and monitor the chart, you would be waiting to see if the 25d MA then also crosses above the Ichimoku Baseline, This would be the second important indication of a long entry. The 200d MA helps here when making decisions on where to set your own personal take profits - If the Ichimoku baseline, and the MA's are below the 200d MA, you would be expecting a bounce point here, or heavy resistance so the long entry could be over a shorter period, than that if it was above the 200d MA, which is why it is included here, to help make a better informed choice.
The latter is reversed for finding short positions, and entries. This indicator is completely reliant on each other to find the best possible entry/exit by complementing each other, and by using the Ichimoku Baseline on it's own, and not as the Ichimoku Cloud is intended.
Just using these though, is not enough, which is why the RSI and MACD are also combined, once the conditions are met above, You may find that there can be false positives for entries, and this is where the RSI has multiple use cases within this script.
Firstly the backdrop colour will change based on whether the chart is in an uptrend or downtrend, This is a visual indicator provided to work simultaneaously on the chart itself to help identification of entries/exits easier to identify in conjunction with the above.
Secondly, It is used to display in the top right, The current Trend in a text format, as well as if the current chart is in one of three phases, these are Overbrought, Oversold and accumulation.
And finally it will display the current RSI Value on the last candle in a clear to see blue Label, This helps with the visual accessible side, to help you make a more informed choice depending on your own personal tolerance.
This ties into the above Indicators, by combining the information, you would not be looking to take a long, if for example, the RSI showed it was over-brought, and in a downtrend, even if the MA's had crossed above the Baseline, as this would most likely be a fakeout.
However if the Indicators above, showed a potential long, and the backdrop had flipped green, indicating an uptrend, and it was in an accumulation phase, you would consider this position. and this is where the MACD comes into play.
You would use the MACD to see whether or not the Signal line has crossed over the MACD line, and vice versa - However this script uses it to simplify and portray current market sentiment, and visually display by reducing clutter on screen, and making it more accessible.
It is designed to portray an easy to read and understand visual indicator by displaying in the top right simply as Bullish or Bearish, with markers above the candles ( "M" and "MX" ).
The M indicator is to show where the MACD Crosses above the Signal, and if aligned with all the other indicators within the script, shows a very strong confirmation for a buying opportunity, and vice versa for the "MX" indicator if aligned with the other indicators in reverse, provides a very strong confirmation for opening a short position or for selling.
Secondary Use case
By combining the indicators above, the secondary conditions you would be looking for, If you opened a LONG position, would be knowing when to sell, On top of what has been described above already regarding this, you would be looking to start taking profits, when the 7d MA crosses above or across the candles, and looking to close the position, when the 25d MA also crosses above the candles, and respectively, in reverse for closing short positions. This is shown across the charts to be extremely useful, however, combine this with the other indicators, portrayed in an easy to use and understand visual representation, you are now able to make more informed decisions, on whether to close a position or not.
How is it different and not just a mash up
I have combined these indicators to make the world of trading more accessible for everyone regardless of circumstances, by creating an easy to understand visual representation, keeping colours vibrant and easy to stand out, with clear and simple to read text indications. So whether you are a seasoned trader, or just starting out, you can make more informed choices, without the need of learning how to use multiple different indicators, and learning how to combine them all, or if you have difficulties learning, this indicator also simplifies a lot of the more technical intricacies, by still allowing you to make a more informed choice.
Distribution Histogram [SS]This is the frequency histogram indicator. It does just that—creates a frequency histogram distribution based on your desired lookback period. It then uses Pine's new Polyline function to plot a normal curve of the expected results for a normal distribution. This allows you to see quite a few things:
🎯 Firstly, it allows you to see where the accumulation rests in terms of a bell curve. The histogram represents a bell curve, and you can visually observe what the curve would look like.
🎯 Secondly, it will assess the normal distribution and the degree of skewness based on the curve itself. The indicator imports the SPTS statistics library to assess the distribution using Kurtosis and Skewness. However, it also adds functionality in this regard by making a qualitative assessment of the data. For example, if there are heavy left tails or heavier right tails present in the histogram, the indicator will alert you that a heavier left or right tail has been observed.
🎯 Thirdly, it provides you with the kurtosis and skewness of the dataset.
🎯 Fourthly, it provides the mean, median, and mode of the dataset, as well as the maximum and minimum values within the dataset.
🎯 Lastly, it provides you with the ability to toggle on tips/explanations of the curve itself. Simply toggle on "Show Distribution Explanation" in the settings menu:
How is the indicator helpful for trading?
If you are a mean reversion trader, this helps you identify the areas and price ranges of high and low accumulation. It also allows you to ascertain the probability by looking at the standard deviation of the bell curve. Remember, the majority of values should fall between -1 and 1 standard deviation of the mean (68%).
If it is revealed that the distribution has a heavier right or left tail, you will know that the stock is more likely to experience sudden drops and shifts in the curve in one direction or the other. Heavier left tails will tend to shift to the values on the far left, and vice versa for right tails.
Customization
You can turn off and on the following:
👉 The normal curve,
👉 The standard deviation levels, and
👉 The distribution explanations and tips.
Conclusion: And that is the indicator! Hope you enjoy it!
Chips MasterChips Master, a way to tell potential chips accumulation.
There are a couple of situation where Chips Master's Yellow Bars will show up.
Firstly,
When an uptrend trend completed Dow's 12345 waves, moving into ABC waves, yellow bars will show up between MA21 and MA60
if we refer to Granville rules, it is in the vicinity of buy point number 4.
Secondly,
During a down trend, when new low is created, potentially, yellow bars will show up, an indication of chips accumulation at low price.

Average Volume at Time (AVAT)Calculation of average volume at current time for a number of previous sessions, known as Average Volume at Time (AVAT).
Inputs:
* period to use for accumulation. "D" is the default value, useful to view data for each session.
* number of previous sessions to average
TODO: more intelligent accumulation of number of bars in a session, since there may be sessions with different values
TODO: interpolate volume according to current time, inside of the last bar
Advanced Chaikin Money Flow (CMF)TL;DR: change the aggregation to EMA to achieve similar results to Twiggs Money Flow. Play with the rest of parameters to get the desired results.
This script allows customization of CMF. It also includes all the improvements made by Twiggs Money flow.
Regular CMF does not take price gaps into account as you can see in the chart below. True range fixes this issue, as done in Twiggs Money flow (TMF).
More info here: www.incrediblecharts.com
Customization Options:
- You can change the effect of volume by setting volume exponent. 0 to 10 reduces the effect and 10+ increases it. In exchanges with too much wash trading, you may want to reduce volume effect.
- You can factor in price in CMF. It gives you a slightly different results. See my Volume x price (VxP) indicator for why it might be useful.
- The range can be changed to percentage (similar to RSI)
PS: I do not recommend using CMF in today's Crypto markets. Chaikin uses the same multiplier in CMF and Accumulation/Distribution Line (ADL). ADL is a totally broken indicator for BTC. If you look at the period after ATH (chart below), you will notice that ADL keeps increasing implying accumulation. While it is clear that there was distribution going on. The reason might be the artificially inflated prices in Crypto that is achieved by the help of bots and having "certain" exchanges as a price reference. So, my reasoning is that if ADL is a broken indicator, so should be CMF. CMF diverges from BTC price frequently. This is a double edged sword IMO. Still CMF is a much better indicator than ADL because it works relative to prior periods which covers some of its flaws.
Note for super nerds: Twiggs Money Flow includes true range and Welles Wilder's Moving Average (WWMA). I have seen some other scripts using their own calculations for WWMA which is not efficient. WWMA is equal to built-in RMA/SMMA which is equal to EMA with length 2x-1.

The visual rectangles help in identifying potential trading opportunities based on price action relative to these key levels.
Example
If the price moves above the high of the specified candle but fails to close above it, a visual rectangle will highlight this price range.
Similarly, if the price moves below the low of the specified candle but fails to close below it, the rectangle will indicate this range.
This indicator provides visual aids to assist traders in making informed decisions based on the behavior of price at specific key levels.
Dynamic Support and Resistance with Trend LinesDynamic Support and Resistance with Trend Lines (DSRTL)
1. Introduction & Methodology
The DSRTL indicator is designed to provide a multidimensional analysis of market structure. Unlike traditional tools that rely solely on price pivots, this script combines Static Volume-based Zones with Dynamic Trend Lines to evaluate the price's position relative to critical market components.
The S/R Identification Technique
Instead of standard pivot points, DSRTL utilizes Volume Analysis to highlight areas of significant trader participation:
- Strategy A:
Matrix Climax: Identifies candles within the lookback period that are near price extremes (Highs/Lows) and coincide with significant buying or selling volume.
- Strategy B:
Volume Extremes: Detects candles with the absolute highest buy/sell volumes within the selected lookback window, creating extreme volume-based S/R zones.
- Result:
This creates Support/Resistance (S/R) zones that are validated by actual market activity, not just price geometry.
Dynamic Trend Lines
To complement the static zones, the indicator employs two adaptive channel methods:
- Pivot Span: Connects recent significant pivots for a fast, reactive trend corridor.
- 5-Point Channel: Segments the lookback period into 5 parts to perform a linear regression analysis, creating a stable and statistically significant channel.
2. Volume Calculation Methodology
Accurate S/R detection requires distinguishing Buy Volume from Sell Volume. DSRTL offers two calculation modes:
- Geometry (Source File): Estimates buy/sell volume based on the Close price's position relative to the High/Low of the candle.
Note: This is an approximation that works on all plan types as it does not require intrabar data.
- Intrabar (Precise): Analyzes historical lower-timeframe data (e.g., 15S) to calculate intrabar-based volume deltas with higher precision compared to the geometric method.
Note: This offers superior accuracy. It requires access to historical intrabar data (depending on your plan limits). For the best analytical results, use this mode if available.
3. The Smart Matrix Engine (3D Analysis)
The core of DSRTL is its dashboard, powered by the "Smart Matrix Engine." This engine evaluates the current price in a multi-layer market structure context (Static Volume Zones + Dynamic Channels + Volume Metrics).:
A. S-State (Static): Where is the price relative to the Volume S/R zones?
B. D-State (Dynamic): Where is the price relative to the Trend Channels?
How to read the Matrix Map:
The dashboard displays a 5x5 grid representing 25 possible market scenarios.
- Rows (S1-S5): Represent the Static State (S1=Breakout, S3=Mid-Range, S5=Breakdown).
- Columns (D1-D5): Represent the Dynamic State (D1=Overextended Up, D3=Neutral, D5=Overextended Down).
- Active Cell: Marked with a dot, indicating the specific intersection of price action and market structure.

DISCLAIMER & EDUCATIONAL PURPOSE
This indicator is strictly an educational tool designed to visualize complex market structure concepts. Its primary purpose is to help traders "bridge the gap" between academic theory and real-time market behavior by providing a visual representation of support, resistance, and volume dynamics.
Please Note:
1. Not a Trading Strategy: This script is an analytical assistant, not a standalone "Black Box" trading system. It does not generate buy or sell signals that should be followed blindly.
2. No Financial Advice: The data provided by this tool is for informational purposes only. It is not a recommendation to buy or sell any asset.
3. Risk Warning: Trading involves significant risk. Always use your own judgment, perform your own technical analysis, and use proper risk management. Do not use this tool as the sole basis for your trading decisions.
4. Data Precision & Platform Limits: The "Intrabar (Precise)" calculation mode relies on high-resolution historical data to provide exact results. Access to this specific data depth depends entirely on your platform's subscription capabilities. If your plan does not support this level of historical intrabar data, the Precise mode may have limited coverage. In that case, you should switch to "Geometry" mode for a fully populated view.
FluidFlow OscillatorFluidFlow Oscillator: Study Material for Traders
Overview
The FluidFlow Oscillator is a custom technical indicator designed to measure price momentum and market flow dynamics by simulating fluid motion concepts such as velocity, viscosity, and turbulence. It helps traders identify potential buy and sell signals along with trend strength, momentum direction, and volatility conditions.
This study explains the underlying calculation concepts, signal logic, visual cues, and how to interpret the professional dashboard table that summarizes key indicator readings.
________________________________________
How the FluidFlow Oscillator Works
Core Mechanisms
1. Price Flow Velocity
o Measures the rate of change of price over a specified flow length (default 40 bars).
o Calculated as a percentage change of closing price: roc=close−closelen_flowcloselen_flow×100\text{roc} = \frac{\text{close} - \text{close}_{len\_flow}}{\text{close}_{len\_flow}} \times 100roc=closelen_flowclose−closelen_flow×100
o Smoothed by an EMA (Exponential Moving Average) to reduce noise, generating a "flow velocity" value.
2. Viscosity Factor
o Analogous to fluid viscosity, it adjusts the flow velocity based on recent price volatility.
o Volatility is computed as the standard deviation of close prices over the flow length.
o The viscosity acts as a damping factor to slow down the flow velocity in highly volatile conditions.
o This results in a "flow with viscosity" value, that smooths out the velocity considering market turbulence.
3. Turbulence Burst
o Captures sudden changes or bursts in the flow by measuring changes between successive viscosity-adjusted flows.
o The turbulence value is a smoothed absolute change in flow.
o A burst boost factor is added to the oscillator to incorporate this rapid change component, amplifying signals during sudden shifts.
4. Oscillator Calculation
o The raw oscillator value is the sum of flow with viscosity plus burst boost, scaled by 10.
o Clamped between -100 and +100 to limit extremes.
o Finally, smoothed again by EMA for cleaner visualization.

Signal Logic
The oscillator works with complementary components to produce actionable signals:
• Signal Line: An EMA-smoothed version of the oscillator for generating crossover-based signals.
• Momentum: The rate of change of the oscillator itself, smoothed by EMA.
• Trend: Uses fast (21-period EMA) and slow (50-period EMA) moving averages of price to identify market trend direction (uptrend, downtrend, or sideways).
Signal Conditions
• Bullish Signal (Buy): Oscillator crosses above the oversold threshold with positive momentum.
• Bearish Signal (Sell): Oscillator crosses below the overbought threshold with negative momentum.
Statuses
The oscillator provides descriptive market states based on level and momentum:
• Overbought
• Oversold
• Buy Signal
• Sell Signal
• Bullish / Bearish (momentum-driven)
• Neutral (no clear trend)
________________________________________
Color System and Visualization
The oscillator uses a sophisticated HSV color model adapting hues according to:
• Oscillator value magnitude and sign (positive or negative)
• Acceleration of oscillator changes
• Smooth color gradients to facilitate intuitive understanding of trend strength and momentum shifts
Background colors highlight overbought (red tint) and oversold (green tint) zones with transparency.

How to Understand the Professional Dashboard Table
The FluidFlow Oscillator offers an integrated table at the bottom center of the chart. This dashboard summarizes critical indicator readings in 8 columns across 3 rows:
Column Description
SIGNAL Current signal status (e.g., Buy, Sell, Overbought) with color coding
OSCILLATOR Current oscillator value (-100 to +100) with color reflecting intensity and direction
MOMENTUM Momentum bias indicating strength/direction of oscillator changes (Strong Up, Up, Sideways, Down, Strong Down)
TREND Current trend status based on EMAs (Strong Uptrend, Uptrend, Sideways, Downtrend, Strong Downtrend)
VOLATILITY Volatility percentage relative to average, indicating market activity level
FLOW Flow velocity value describing price momentum magnitude and direction
TURBULENCE Turbulence level indicating sudden bursts or spikes in price movement
PROGRESS Oscillator's position mapped as a percentage (0% to 100%) showing proximity to extreme levels
Rows Explained
• Row 1 (Header): Labels for each metric.
• Row 2 (Values): Current numerical or descriptive values color-coded along a professional scheme:
o Green or lime tones indicate positive or bullish conditions.
o Red or orange tones indicate caution, sell signals, or bearish conditions.
o Blue tones indicate neutral or stable conditions.
• Row 3 (Status Indicators): Emoji-like icons and bars provide a quick visual gauge of each metric's intensity or signal strength:
o For example, "🟢🟢🟢" suggests very strong bullish momentum, while "🔴🔴🔴" suggests strong bearish momentum.
o Progress bar visually demonstrates oscillator movement toward oversold or overbought extremes.

Practical Interpretation Tips
• A Buy signal with green colors and strong momentum usually precedes upward price moves.
• An Overbought status with red background and red table colors warns of potential price corrections or reversals.
• Watch the Turbulence to gauge market instability; spikes may precede price shocks or volatility bursts.
• Confirm signals with the Trend and Momentum columns to avoid false entries.
• Use the Progress bar to anticipate oscillations approaching key threshold levels for timing trades.

Alerts
The oscillator supports alerts for:
• Buy and sell signals based on oscillator crossovers.
• Overbought and oversold levels reached.
These help traders automate awareness of important market conditions.

CVDD Z-ScoreCumulative Value Days Destroyed (CVDD) - The CVDD was created by Willy Woo and is the ratio of the cumulative value of Coin Days Destroyed in USD and the market age (in days). While this indicator is used to detect bottoms normally, an extension is used to allow detection of BTC tops. When the BTC price goes above the CVDD extension, BTC is generally considered to be overvalued. Because the "strength" of the BTC tops has decreased over the cycles, a logarithmic function for the extension was created by fitting past cycles as log extension = slope * time + intercept. This indicator is triggered for a top when the BTC price is above the CVDD extension. For the bottoms, the CVDD is shifted upwards at a default value of 120%. The slope, intercept, and CVDD bottom shift can all be modified in the script.
Now with the automatic Z-Score calculation for ease of classification of Bitcoin's valuation according to this metric.
Created for TRW.
