[TehThomas] - ICT SMT DivergencesIntroduction
SMT Divergences is a cutting-edge trading tool designed for traders who utilize Smart Money Techniques (SMT), a core concept in the Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology. This indicator is specifically built to detect SMT divergences by comparing price action across multiple correlated assets. It helps traders identify institutional activity, liquidity grabs, and inefficiencies in the market, offering valuable insights for high-probability trade setups.
Smart Money Techniques revolve around the idea that institutional traders and large market participants leave behind footprints in the form of price divergences. By analyzing multiple asset pairs simultaneously, this indicator helps traders pinpoint areas where one market structure contradicts another, revealing potential trade opportunities before the majority of retail traders notice them.
What is SMT Divergence?
Smart Money Divergence (SMT) occurs when correlated assets or markets behave differently in key areas of interest. These divergences often indicate market inefficiencies caused by liquidity grabs or institutional order flow. There are two main types of SMT divergences:
1. Bearish SMT Divergence (Smart Money Distribution) 🔴
Occurs when:
One asset makes a higher high, while another correlated asset makes a lower high.
This signals underlying weakness in the price action of the first asset.
Institutions may be offloading positions, preparing for a downward move.
📉 Example: If GBP/USD makes a higher high, but EUR/USD makes a lower high, it indicates potential weakness in GBP/USD and a possible short opportunity.
2. Bullish SMT Divergence (Smart Money Accumulation) 🔵
Occurs when:
One asset makes a lower low, while another correlated asset makes a higher low.
This suggests strength and potential accumulation by institutional traders.
Smart Money may be positioning for a bullish reversal.
📈 Example: If NASDAQ (US100) makes a lower low, but S&P 500 (US500) makes a higher low, it could indicate bullish strength in the stock market, suggesting a possible long trade.
How This Indicator Works
The SMT Divergences automatically identifies and plots SMT divergences on your chart, allowing you to spot hidden market imbalances at a glance.
🔍 Key Features
✅ Compare Up to 4 Assets Simultaneously – Select up to four correlated pairs to compare against the main charted asset.
✅ Automatic Detection of SMT Divergences – The script finds divergences in swing highs and swing lows and visually marks them on the chart.
✅ Customizable Line Styles & Colors – Adjust the appearance of the divergence lines and labels to suit your trading style.
✅ Smart Labeling System – Displays which asset pairs are diverging, making it easy to analyze market conditions.
✅ Works Across Multiple Markets – Use for Forex, Indices, Crypto, and Commodities, giving traders flexibility in different asset classes.
✅ Designed for ICT Traders – Aligns perfectly with other ICT concepts such as Liquidity Zones, Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps (FVGs).
🛠 Indicator Settings & Customization
The indicator provides various settings to tailor it to your trading preferences:
Pivot Lookback Length: Adjusts how many bars the indicator looks back to determine swing highs/lows.
Symbol Selection: Choose up to four additional assets to compare against your main trading pair.

Line Styles: Choose between solid, dotted, or dashed lines to highlight divergences in your preferred way.
Label Customization: Modify text color and display preferences for a clean and informative chart layout.
How to Use This Indicator in Your Trading Strategy
This indicator is best used in combination with other ICT concepts to improve confluence and increase trade accuracy. Here’s how you can integrate it into your trading strategy:
🔹 Step 1: Identify SMT Divergences
Wait for bullish or bearish SMT divergences to appear on your chart.
Check if the divergence aligns with key liquidity zones, fair value gaps (FVGs), or order blocks.
🔹 Step 2: Confirm Institutional Activity
Look for liquidity sweeps (stop hunts) before a potential reversal.
If a bearish SMT divergence forms near a major resistance level, it may signal Smart Money selling.
If a bullish SMT divergence forms near a support zone, it could indicate accumulation.
🔹 Step 3: Enter a Trade with Confluence
Combine SMT divergences with market structure shifts to time entries.
Use additional ICT tools like Premium & Discount Arrays, Volume Profile, and Market Maker Models for confirmation.
Set stop-losses above liquidity zones and aim for high-risk reward ratios.
🔹 Step 4: Manage Risk & Take Profits
Always use proper risk management, keeping an eye on liquidity grabs and market sentiment.
Consider taking partial profits at key structural points and letting the rest of the trade run.
Why This Indicator is a Game-Changer for ICT Traders
Traditional retail traders often fail to spot Smart Money footprints, which is why many struggle with false breakouts and liquidity traps. The - ICT SMT Divergences indicator eliminates this problem by providing a clear, visual representation of SMT divergences, allowing traders to track institutional movements in real-time.
🔹 Save Time – No need to manually compare charts; the script does the work for you.

ZenAlgo - BenderThis script combines several volume-based methodologies into a single chart overlay to help traders analyze market participation and volume distribution. It aggregates volume from multiple sources—spot and perpetual markets across different exchanges—and processes it to display various insights directly on the chart.
The script provides a detailed view of both individual-bar volume and broader aggregated trends. It calculates certain values, plots different shapes and overlays, and includes an optional informational table. However, it does not offer financial signals or predict future price movements. Instead, it presents multiple volume and range-related highlights for educational or analytical observations.
Below is a detailed breakdown of the core elements in this script:
Core Data Calculation and Aggregation
To build a comprehensive volume picture, the script retrieves volume data from multiple predefined exchanges for both Spot and Perpetual pairs. The volume for each bar is processed in Aggregated mode , meaning it combines data across selected sources to produce a single composite volume value.
The script applies average-based aggregation to calculate the final volume figures. The total volume is then used as the basis for further calculations, such as buy/sell volume decomposition and Delta analysis.
Buy/Sell Volume Decomposition
Each bar’s total volume is separated into an estimated buy portion and a sell portion. This decomposition uses logic that considers wick length, body size, and whether the bar closed higher or lower than it opened. The script assigns fractions of the total volume to the upper wick, lower wick, and body, then multiplies these by the total aggregated volume to estimate buy and sell volumes.
This breakdown is calculated separately for spot-only volume , perp-only volume , and their aggregated sums, allowing traders to analyze how much of each bar’s volume is estimated as "buy" or "sell."
Delta and Cumulative Delta
The script computes a Delta (buy volume minus sell volume) for each bar. A positive Delta suggests more buying during that bar, while a negative Delta suggests more selling.
It also computes Cumulative Delta , summing this Delta over 14 bars (a fixed period). This allows users to observe how short-term buy/sell imbalances accumulate over time.
Visual Bar Coloring (PVSRA Logic)
The script includes logic based on PVSRA (Price Volume Support Resistance Analysis) , which examines average volume over a recent lookback period to determine whether a bar meets certain "climax" or "above-average" thresholds.
Bars are categorized as:
Climax Up or Climax Down: If a bar meets strong volume and range conditions, it is identified as a high-activity bar.
Neutral Colors: Bars that do not meet the threshold are identified as standard volume bars.
Table Summaries
The script includes an optional Spot vs. Perpetual volume table that provides:
Aggregated Spot vs. Perpetual buy/sell volumes
The net difference between buying and selling
The total sum across all included sources
Percentage breakdown of buying vs. selling
A separate multi-timeframe table calculates volume-related metrics for fixed timeframes (15, 60, and 240 minutes), allowing traders to compare their current timeframe with broader trends.
Highlighted Shapes and Diamonds
The script places shape markers above or below bars when certain conditions are met, including:
Dots (circles): Representing a significant increase in net Delta compared to the previous bar.
Diamonds: Markers that appear when volume-based conditions align with predefined thresholds. These vary in size and include an optional "Hardcore Mode" , which applies stricter filtering.
Crossover Triangles: These appear when the internally computed Delta MA (a moving average of Delta) crosses above or below a predefined EMA.
These markers highlight notable changes in volume, Delta, or price action but do not constitute predictive trading signals.
Delta Averages and Overlaid EMAs
The script plots a histogram of the current net Delta (buy minus sell) . Additionally, a Delta Moving Average (Delta MA) is used for tracking trends. The Delta MA is plotted alongside predefined Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) , such as:
A Delta MA calculated using an exponential moving average (EMA) over 21 bars.
A set of predefined EMAs (lengths such as 3, 5, 7, 10, 13, 16, 21, 25, etc.) plotted to visualize momentum changes.
Areas between these EMAs can be filled with translucent shading to highlight momentum shifts.
Comparing the Delta MA to the overlaid EMAs helps track changes in Delta momentum over time.
Interpreting the Elements
When using this script, consider the following:
Volume Aggregation: The script aggregates volume across multiple Spot and Perpetual sources to provide a broad market view.
Delta and Cumulative Delta: The Delta histogram may spike positively or negatively, highlighting areas of potential buying or selling pressure.
Table Data: If enabled, the tables display buy/sell volume splits for Spot and Perpetual markets, along with multi-timeframe comparisons.
EMA Overlays on Delta: The stacked EMAs help visualize short-term vs. longer-term Delta changes.
Shape Markers: Dots, diamonds, and triangles emphasize notable shifts in volume or Delta but do not imply recommendations for action.
Usage Tips
Toggle "Hardcore Mode" to apply stricter filtering to highlight conditions.
Enable or disable the Spot vs. Perpetual Table to see if the breakdown of volume sources is useful.
Use the multi-timeframe table to compare intraday data with broader trends.
If the chart appears too cluttered, toggle off features like PVSRA color tints or some EMAs to focus on specific elements.
Final Thoughts
This script integrates multiple volume-based calculations, range analysis, aggregated volume from predefined tickers, and various moving averages for Delta. Its visual layers—color-coded bars, histograms, shape markers, and tables—offer a rich perspective on market activity.
Users can analyze these elements across any timeframe or market combination they prefer. The script does not provide buy/sell signals or make predictions —it is purely an analytical tool for understanding volume-based market dynamics.
Traders should interpret these visual elements according to their own strategy and trading approach.

FVG LevelsFVG Levels Indicator Description
The FVG Levels indicator dynamically identifies and displays key price zones that may represent fair value gaps and order block areas, helping traders to visually pinpoint potential support and resistance levels directly on the chart.
Key Features
Order Block Identification:
The indicator detects bullish and bearish order blocks by analyzing specific candle patterns. For bullish zones, it checks if a candle two bars ago was bullish (close greater than open) coupled with a subsequent gap condition. Similarly, bearish zones are identified when bearish candle conditions are met with an appropriate gap.
Dynamic Zone Calculation:
It computes critical levels such as the highest highs, lowest lows, highest lows, and lowest highs over a series of recent bars. These levels define the boundaries of potential buy and sell zones and adjust dynamically as new price data comes in.
Visual Representation:
Buy zones are plotted in lime and sell zones in yellow, with the indicator filling the areas between the high and low lines to create clear, shaded bands. This visual aid helps in quickly recognizing zones of potential price reaction.
Chart Overlay:
Designed to work as an overlay, the indicator integrates directly onto your price chart, allowing for seamless correlation between price action and identified zones.
How It Works
Bullish Zones:
When a bullish candle (with the candle's close above its open) is detected along with a significant gap, the indicator marks the upper and lower boundaries of the bullish order block. It further refines these levels by tracking the lowest low and highest high over recent bars to enhance the zone's definition.
Bearish Zones:
In a similar manner, the indicator calculates bearish order blocks by confirming bearish candle conditions and corresponding gap criteria. It then updates the bearish zone levels and computes the highest high and lowest low to establish clear sell zone boundaries.
Usage
Traders can use the FVG Levels indicator to:
Identify potential entry and exit points by observing where price may reverse or consolidate.
Recognize fair value gaps or imbalances that often act as magnet points for price action.
Enhance risk management by using the dynamically calculated zones to set stop-losses or take-profits.
FVG | iSolani
Unveiling Market Inefficiencies with Precision
In fast-moving markets, spotting hidden opportunities often hinges on identifying imbalances between price and value. The FVG | iSolani indicator revolutionises this process by detecting Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) —zones where price action skips over "fair" valuation levels, creating potential retracement targets. Combining advanced filtering, dynamic visualisation, and automated management, this tool empowers traders to pinpoint high-probability setups with unprecedented clarity.
Core Methodology
The indicator employs a multi-layered approach to identify FVGs:
Three-Bar Gap Analysis: Bullish FVGs form when the current low exceeds the high of two bars prior, while bearish FVGs occur when the current high stays below the low of two bars back.
Volatility-Adjusted Filtering: Gaps are measured against a 100-bar standard deviation to exclude insignificant price jumps.
Volume Confirmation: Only gaps accompanied by above-average volume (relative to a 1-bar SMA) are validated, filtering out low-conviction moves.
Auto-Invalidation System: Continuously monitors price action to remove FVG zones once price closes within their range, maintaining chart cleanliness.
Breaking New Ground
This tool introduces three paradigm-shifting innovations:
Volume-Weighted Significance: Unlike traditional FVG detectors, it ties gap validity to volume spikes, emphasising institutional activity.
Adaptive Zone Management: Boxes automatically extend rightward (when enabled) and self-destruct when invalidated, eliminating manual cleanup.
Smart Color Encoding: Offers both monochrome (for multi-timeframe analysis) and standard bull/bear color schemes, with customisable transparency.
Engine Under the Hood
The script operates through four key processes:
Gap Detection: Scans every new bar for three-candle patterns meeting FVG criteria.
Statistical Filtering: Applies user-defined threshold (default: 1σ) to separate meaningful gaps from market noise.
Box Rendering: Draws semi-transparent zones between gap boundaries using TradingView's box objects, styled according to user preferences.
Array-Based Memory: Stores all active FVGs in arrays, enabling real-time validation checks against current price action.
Standard Configuration
Optimised default settings balance visibility and functionality:
Filter: 1.0 (1 standard deviation threshold)
Colors: "Mono" mode (gray boxes) with 90% transparency
Text Labels: Enabled in medium gray
Extension: Gaps extend indefinitely rightward
Borders: Dotted lines with visible outlines
Through its fusion of quantitative rigor and visual adaptability, the FVG | iSolani transforms raw price data into actionable intelligence. By focusing on volume-confirmed gaps and automating zone management, it cuts through market chaos to reveal structurally significant levels—a must-have for traders navigating breakouts, reversals, or order-flow analysis.
neXt FVG MTF PRO [cognyto]The neXt FVG Multi-Timeframe Indicator represents a remarkable edge in Fair Value Gap analysis. It offers traders a comprehensive and simplified interface to simultaneously monitor Fair Value Gaps across up to 9 different configurable timeframes . This feature shows traders exclusively the closest and most relevant gaps, enabling more precise top-down price action analysis. This makes it particularly valuable for strategies focused on market liquidity and inefficiencies.
Here are the 10 fundamental features that distinguish this indicator
1. Intelligent Visualisation of Next Gaps
An advanced filtering system is implemented to prioritise the visualisation of the nearest FVGs, hence its name -next-, offering a clean FVGs layout on the screen and improving analysis precision. The visualisation system continuously updates according to market price evolution, and as FVGs appear, are mitigated, or eliminated across different timeframes, it updates to ensure a structured and efficient interface.
2. Top-Down Multi-Timeframe Analysis
An efficient visualisation system is implemented to simultaneously manage up to 9 different timeframes. The differentiation between FVGs and their timeframes is established through proportional length in their visual presentation, where higher timeframes extend further to the right, establishing a clear visual hierarchy. The further right the gap extends, the stronger its significance. This structure allows visualization of both current timeframe gaps and those of higher timeframes, facilitating comprehensive market analysis.
3. Alerts
The indicator incorporates a complete notification system that allows users to stay informed in real-time about a wide range of critical events related to Gaps. This system includes customisable alerts for new Fair Value Gaps formation, mitigation notifications, and precise identification of significant gap breakout patterns, technically known as Breakaway gaps.
4. Mitigation
Mitigations represent a fundamental element in technical analysis, identifying zones where price has reached equilibrium. Considering the analytical importance of mitigated gaps, the indicator maintains their visualisation with a specific different color distinction. Additionally, it includes optional functionality for removing mitigated gaps, which can be activated according to user preferences.
5. BISI and SIBI
In addition to the FVGs present in all timeframes, the indicator facilitates precise configuration of BISI and SIBI gaps in the current timeframe, maintaining dynamic visualisation during the additional analysis process alongside other timeframes. This feature optimises the evaluation of historical market imbalances and inefficiencies, offering significant analytical perspectives in the current timeframe, and even refining market entry or exit strategies.
6. Breakaway-Gaps
The indicator provides advanced functionality for identifying and analysing Breakaway-Gaps, presenting in a structured manner the corresponding candle formations that create the Gap. This feature allows precise evaluation of strong market movements, including the assessment of potential retracements and directional patterns in high volatility conditions.
7. Consequent-Encroachment (C.E.)
The indicator implements advanced functionality that visualizes the midpoint of the displacement candle that generates the gap, using precise calculation based on the opening and closing levels of that candle.
8. FVG Fulfilment
The indicator offers advanced configuration options for FVG fullfilmet conditions through two main criteria: confirmation through candle closure that exceeds the established FVG limits, or validation through the intersection of extreme candle levels (maximum/minimum) with the FVG threshold.
9. FVG-Visualisations
Gaps are visualised on the platform once the third candle formation is complete. The system provides optional visualisation functionality during the formation process, although this feature is specifically recommended for predictive analysis, being most effective during daily or weekly market closing intervals. This feature maintains its consistency exclusively in the active timeframe.
10. Customisation
The indicator presents a wide range of advanced customisation options, facilitating comprehensive modification of visual elements. This includes professional adaptation of color palettes, typographic dimensions, line configurations, and design attributes, allowing precise optimisation according to specific user analytical requirements.

Delta VolDelta Volume BTC - Multi Pair
Description The Delta Volume BTC - Multi Pair indicator visualizes the balance between buying and selling volume across multiple Bitcoin exchanges. By analyzing price action within each bar, it provides insight into underlying market pressure that traditional volume indicators miss. This indicator allows traders to:
Compare volume flow across Coinbase, Binance, and Binance Perpetual markets
Identify divergences between exchanges that may signal market shifts
Detect accumulation or distribution patterns through volume imbalances
View exchanges individually or in aggregate for comprehensive analysis
Calculation Methods The indicator offers three volume delta calculation methods:
VWAP Based (default):
price_range = high - low
buy_percent = (close - low) / price_range
sell_percent = (high - close) / price_range
delta = volume * (buy_percent - sell_percent)
This method distributes volume based on where price closed within the bar's range, providing a nuanced view of buying/selling pressure.
Tick Based :
delta = volume * sign(hlc3 - previous_hlc3)
This approach assigns volume based on the direction of typical price movement between bars, capturing momentum between periods.
Simple :
delta = close > open ? volume : close < open ? -volume : 0
A straightforward method that assigns positive volume to up bars and negative volume to down bars.
When Aggregate Mode is enabled, the indicator sums the volume deltas from all selected exchanges:
aggregate_delta = coinbase_delta + binance_delta + binance_perp_delta
Features
Multi-Exchange Support : Track volume delta across Coinbase, Binance, and Binance Perpetual futures
Advanced Calculation Methods : Choose between VWAP-based, tick-based, or simple volume delta algorithms
Flexible Display Options : Visualize as histogram, columns, area, or line charts
Customizable Colors : Distinct color schemes for each exchange and direction
Smoothing Options : Apply EMA, SMA, or WMA to reduce noise
Aggregate Mode : Combine all exchanges to see total market flow
How to Use
Individual Exchange Analysis : Uncheck "Aggregate Mode" to see each exchange separately, revealing where smart money may be positioning
Divergence Detection : Watch for one exchange showing buying while others show selling
Volume Trend Confirmation : Strong price moves should be accompanied by strong delta in the same direction
Liquidity Analysis : Compare spot vs futures volume delta to identify market sentiment shifts
The Delta Volume BTC - Multi Pair indicator helps identify the "hidden" buying and selling pressure that may not be apparent from price action alone, giving you an edge in understanding market dynamics across the Bitcoin ecosystem.
ICT Liquidity Levels [TakingProphets]Overview
This indicator is designed to dynamically identify and display key liquidity levels—areas where market participants are likely to engage. By analyzing price swing points, it highlights potential support and resistance zones that can signal reversals or breakouts. The script distinguishes between buyside and sellside liquidity levels, presenting them with customizable visual cues and labels for immediate clarity.
How It Works
Swing Point Detection:
The indicator uses a pivot-based method (with a configurable “Base Swing Strength”) to detect swing highs and lows. Each detected swing is evaluated for its “swing size” (percentage price movement), and if it exceeds a user-defined threshold, the level is classified as major.
Level Creation and Classification:
Overview
Built on core ICT principles, this indicator identifies key liquidity zones—areas where market imbalances can lead to liquidity sweeps. By dynamically analyzing swing points, it offers traders a real-time view of where liquidity is clustering, allowing for a deeper understanding of market structure. 🚀
How It Works
Swing Point Detection 🔍
• Uses a pivot-based method with a configurable “Base Swing Strength” to detect significant price swings.
• Calculates the swing size (percentage change) to flag zones that exceed the “Major Level Threshold” as major liquidity zones.
Level Creation & Classification 🛠️
• Buyside Liquidity Levels (BSL):
Identified from swing highs, marking zones where buying liquidity clusters.
• Sellside Liquidity Levels (SSL):
Identified from swing lows, highlighting zones of concentrated selling liquidity.
• Each zone is stored with its price, bar index, and classification (major or standard) before being drawn as a horizontal line on the chart.
Dynamic Level Management 🔄
• Extension: Liquidity lines automatically extend from their detection point to the current bar.
• Consolidation: When levels are close in price, the script merges them—updating labels (e.g., “REQH” or “REQL”) to denote unified liquidity zones.
• Traded-Through Detection: Adjusts or removes levels if the market moves beyond them, based on your settings.
• Age-Based Cleanup: Inactive zones are automatically removed after a set number of bars to maintain clarity.
Customization Options ⚙️
Visual Settings:
• Choose from solid, dashed, or dotted line styles and adjust line width.
• Option to display labels with customizable placement (left or right) for optimal clarity.
Color & Opacity:
• Set distinct colors for buyside and sellside liquidity zones.
• Configure opacity for zones that have been traded through, keeping them visible yet de-emphasized.
Detection & Cleanup Parameters:
• Adjust “Base Swing Strength” to control pivot detection sensitivity.
• Set the “Major Level Threshold %” to filter for significant liquidity zones.
• Decide whether to retain or remove zones once price moves through them.
• Define how many bars should pass before inactive zones are automatically deleted.
How to Use 🚀
Apply the Indicator:
Simply add the script to your chart—it automatically detects and marks key liquidity zones based on recent price action.
Adjust Inputs:
Fine-tune parameters like swing strength, threshold percentages, and visual settings to match the asset’s characteristics and your trading strategy.
Interpret the Visuals:
• Major Liquidity Zones:
Highlighted with thicker lines and distinct labels (e.g., “Major BSL/SSL”), indicating areas of heightened liquidity concentration.
• Consolidated Zones:
Merged labels (e.g., “REQH/REQL”) denote unified liquidity zones where clustering is significant.
• Traded-Through Zones:
Changes in opacity signal that the market has moved beyond a previously identified liquidity zone.
Underlying ICT Concepts 💡
Liquidity Pools & Sweeps:
Focused on identifying where liquidity is concentrated, the indicator aligns with ICT methodologies that highlight zones crucial for liquidity sweeps.
Pivot Analysis for Liquidity:
Enhances traditional pivot detection to spotlight liquidity clusters, providing a deeper insight into market structure.
Real-Time Adaptation:
With continuous updates and built-in cleanup, the indicator ensures that liquidity zones accurately reflect current market conditions.
2:30 [LuciTech]this is a technical analysis tool designed to highlight key price levels and patterns during a specific trading window, based on UK time (Europe/London). It overlays visual elements on the chart, including a 12 PM reference line, Buy Side Liquidity (BSL) and Sell Side Liquidity (SSL) levels, a highlighted 2:30 PM candle, and Engulfing Fair Value Gaps (FVGs). This indicator is intended for traders who focus on intraday price action and liquidity zones.
Features
The 12 PM Line displays a vertical line at 12:00 PM (UK time) to mark the start of the session. It’s customizable, allowing you to enable or disable it and adjust its color.
BSL/SSL Lines track the highest high (BSL) and lowest low (SSL) from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM (UK time). These lines extend horizontally until 3:30 PM, after which they remain static at their last recorded levels. You can customize them by enabling or disabling visibility, adjusting colors, choosing a line style (solid, dashed, or dotted), and setting the width.
The 2:30 PM Candle highlights the candle at 2:30 PM (UK time) with a distinct color. It’s customizable, with options to enable or disable it and change its color.
Engulfing FVG (Fair Value Gap) identifies bullish and bearish engulfing patterns with a gap from the prior candle’s range. It draws a shaded box over the FVG area, and you can customize it by enabling or disabling it and adjusting the box color.
How It Works
The indicator operates within a session starting at 12:00 PM (UK time). BSL/SSL levels update between 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM, with lines extending until 3:30 PM. After 3:30 PM, these lines freeze.
BSL/SSL lines show the highest price (BSL) and lowest price (SSL) reached during the 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM window. After 3:30 PM, they remain static, marking the final range boundaries.
The 2:30 PM candle emphasizes a key timestamp, often of interest to intraday traders.
Engulfing FVGs detect significant price gaps created by engulfing candles, which may indicate potential reversal or continuation zones.
Settings
12 PM Line Settings let you toggle visibility and set the line color.
BSL/SSL Line Settings allow you to toggle visibility, set BSL and SSL colors, choose a line style (Solid, Dashed, Dotted), and adjust width (1-4).
2:30 Candle Settings let you toggle visibility and set the candle color.
Engulfing FVG Settings allow you to toggle visibility and set the box color.
Interpretation
The 12 PM Line serves as a reference for the session start.
BSL/SSL Lines may act as potential support or resistance zones or highlight liquidity areas. After 3:30 PM, they remain static, showing the session’s final range.
The 2:30 PM Candle can be monitored for price action signals, such as reversals or breakouts.
Engulfing FVGs shaded areas may indicate imbalances in supply and demand, useful for identifying trade opportunities or stop-loss placement.
Notes
The timezone is set to Europe/London (UK time). Ensure your chart’s timezone aligns for accurate results.
This indicator is best used on intraday timeframes, such as 1-minute or 5-minute charts.
It provides visual aids for analysis and does not generate buy or sell signals on its own.

You can also see the distance from current price of the ticker to the zone and how many times price has retested that zone.
Supply Zone
In trading, a supply zone is a specific area on a price chart where selling interest surpasses buying interest, leading to a potential decline in asset prices. This zone typically forms after a price rally, indicating that sellers find the asset overvalued and are prepared to sell, creating downward pressure. Identifying supply zones can help traders anticipate potential price reversals or pullbacks.
Trading Possibilities with Supply Zones
Entering Short Positions -> When the price approaches a recognized supply zone, traders may consider initiating short positions, anticipating that increased selling pressure will drive prices down.
Setting Profit Targets -> For traders holding long positions, supply zones can serve as strategic points to set profit targets, as these areas may signal potential resistance and a subsequent price drop.
Demand Zone
In trading, a demand zone is a specific area on a price chart where buying interest is strong enough to halt a downtrend and potentially reverse it upward. This zone indicates a price level where demand exceeds supply, leading to a rise in price. Identifying these zones can provide traders with strategic entry points for potential long positions.
Trading Possibilities with Demand Zones
Entering Long Positions -> When the price approaches a recognized demand zone, traders may consider initiating long positions, anticipating that increased buying pressure will drive prices up.
Setting Profit Targets -> For traders holding short positions, demand zones can serve as strategic points to set profit targets, as these areas may signal potential resistance and a subsequent price increase.
Momentum Detection Method
The Momentum Detection Method identifies supply and demand zones by analyzing the strength and direction of price movements over a specified period. It looks for a sequence of strong bullish or bearish candles to determine potential zones. The method is sensitive to the ‘Sensitivity’ setting, which adjusts the threshold for what constitutes a "strong" candle.
Using the momentum method is ideal for traders looking to capitalize on immediate price reactions and momentum shifts.
Regression Detection Method
The Regression Method uses statistical regression to identify supply and demand zones by analyzing price consolidation patterns. It fits a regression line to price data and identifies zones where price deviates significantly from the trend. This method is more mathematical and less reliant on individual candle patterns. It focuses on the overall price structure and identifies zones based on statistical deviations from the trend.
This method is particularly useful for traders who focus on longer-term price trends and prefer a more statistical approach to pinpoint zones.
Using the momentum method is ideal for traders looking to capitalize on immediate price reactions and momentum shifts.
Status ->
Far -> This status indicates that the current price is significantly distant from any identified supply or demand zones. In this scenario, traders might exercise patience, waiting for the price to approach these zones before considering entry or exit points.
Approaching ⬆️ -> The price is rising towards a supply zone, suggesting potential selling opportunities as the price nears an area where selling pressure previously dominated.
Approaching ⬇️ -> The price is falling towards a demand zone, indicating potential buying opportunities as the price approaches an area known for strong buying interest.
Inside -> The current price is within the boundaries of a supply or demand zone. This status often signals a critical decision point:
Inside a Supply Zone: The area where selling pressure may increase, potentially leading to a price decline. Traders might look for confirmation before initiating short positions.
Inside a Demand Zone: The area where buying interest could surge, possibly resulting in a price increase. Traders might seek validation before entering long positions.
Being "inside" a zone suggests heightened market activity and potential volatility, warranting close monitoring for trading signals.
Retests -> A retest occurs when the price revisits a supply or demand zone but fails to break through it. Specifically, during a retest, the wick of a candlestick enters the zone, but the candle closes below the supply zone or above the demand zone. This price action suggests that the zone remains a strong area of resistance or support, as the market couldn't sustain movement beyond it. Traders often view such retests as confirmations to enter positions in the direction opposite to the zone's boundary. For instance, if the price retests a supply zone and fails to close above it, it may signal a selling opportunity. Conversely, a failed retest of a demand zone could indicate a buying opportunity. Monitoring the number of retests can provide insights into the strength of these zones; multiple retests without a breakout may reinforce the zone's significance. Here you can see how many times the price retested the supply or demand zone.
⚠ Timeframe Restriction : The selected timeframes for analysis cannot be lower than the chart’s current timeframe to ensure proper data alignment.
⏰ ALERTS
This screener supports alerts, so you never miss a key market move. You can choose to receive alerts when a new demand or supply zone is created, helping you spot potential trading opportunities. Additionally, you can enable alerts for retests, which notify you when the price returns to test a previously identified zone. The alerts will work for each enabled ticker in the settings.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Detection Method : There are two detection methods you can choose from for identifying Supply & Demand Zones. Both methods aim to identify key areas where price is likely to react, but they do so using different approaches. Traders can choose the method that aligns with their trading style and time horizon.
Sensitivity : The Sensitivity setting allows traders to adjust how aggressively the script identifies supply and demand zones when using the Momentum Detection Method. This setting directly impacts the threshold for detecting zones when using the momentum detection method.
High Sensitivity -> Detects smaller price movements, resulting in more zones being identified. This is ideal for traders who want to capture even minor supply and demand imbalances and prefer a higher frequency of potential trading opportunities.
Medium Sensitivity -> Balances between detecting significant price movements and avoiding excessive noise. This setting is suitable for most traders who want a moderate number of zones without being overwhelmed.
Low Sensitivity -> Focuses on larger, more significant price movements, resulting in fewer zones being identified. This is ideal for traders who prioritize quality over quantity and prefer to focus on the most impactful supply and demand areas.
Lowest Sensitivity -> Detects only the strongest and most pronounced price movements, identifying the most significant zones. This setting is best for traders who want to focus on high-probability, high-impact zones and avoid minor fluctuations.
Zone Invalidation : The Zone Invalidation setting determines how supply and demand zones are invalidated.
Wick -> A zone is invalidated if a candle’s wick goes below a demand zone or above a supply zone.
Close -> A zone is invalidated if a candle closes below a demand zone or above a supply zone.
Zone Visibility Range : The Zone Visibility Range setting controls how far from the current price supply and demand zones are displayed on the chart. It helps traders focus on relevant zones while avoiding clutter from distant or less impactful areas.
Minimum Zone Width : The Minimum Zone Width setting defines the smallest size a supply or demand zone must have to be displayed on the chart. It uses the Average True Range (ATR) as a reference to ensure zones are proportionate to current market volatility.
Minimum Zone Length : The Minimum Zone Length setting determines the minimum number of bars a supply or demand zone must span to be displayed on the chart. This setting helps filter out short-lived or insignificant zones, ensuring only meaningful areas of supply or demand are highlighted.
2. Tickers
You can set, then enable or disable up to 8 tickers in this section to get informed about their latest supply or demand zone.

Smashing Pump Delta [by Oberlunar]Smashing Pump Δ by Oberlunar
This is a Crypto Δ Volumetric Pump indicator specifically designed to detect crypto pumps. Its primary goal is to highlight moments when buying volume significantly outweighs selling volume on a lower timeframe, suggesting strong upward momentum in the market.
I can't access to the data feed thus the core of its functionality lies in calculating the volume delta Δ in a simpler way... by measuring the difference between aggregated buy and sell volumes. Buy volume is recorded when a lower timeframe candle closes higher than it opened (green candles), while sell volume is recorded when a candle closes lower than it opened (red candles). By focusing exclusively on these buy and sell imbalances, the indicator naturally leans toward identifying positive surges in activity—the hallmark of a pump.
Unlike dumps, which are often accompanied by panic selling and rapid downward movement, pumps are driven by aggressive buying pressure which in crypto assets is very interesting. This indicator is designed to highlight those spikes in buying volume, helping traders pinpoint moments when a significant upward move might be unfolding. It achieves this by tracking the largest volume delta over recent candles and marking it clearly on the chart.
So, if you’re looking for a tool to spot when the bulls are charging, this indicator is your ally.
- Please as in the figure consider the progression of the local maxima before... -

VPSA-VTDDear Sir/Madam,
I am pleased to present the next iteration of my indicator concept, which, in my opinion, serves as a highly useful tool for analyzing markets using the Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) method or the Wyckoff methodology.
The VPSA (Volume-Price Spread Analysis), the latest version in the family of scripts I’ve developed, appears to perform its task effectively. The combination of visualizing normalized data alongside their significance, achieved through the application of Z-Score standardization, proved to be a sound solution. Therefore, I decided to take it a step further and expand my project with a complementary approach to the existing one.
Theory
At the outset, I want to acknowledge that I’m aware of the existence of other probabilistic models used in financial markets, which may describe these phenomena more accurately. However, in line with Occam's Razor, I aimed to maintain simplicity in the analysis and interpretation of the concepts below. For this reason, I focused on describing the data using the Gaussian distribution.
The data I read from the chart — primarily the closing price, the high-low price difference (spread), and volume — exhibit cyclical patterns. These cycles are described by Wyckoff's methodology, while VSA complements and presents them from a different perspective. I will refrain from explaining these methods in depth due to their complexity and broad scope. What matters is that within these cycles, various events occur, described by candles or bars in distinct ways, characterized by different spreads and volumes. When observing the chart, I notice periods of lower volatility, often accompanied by lower volumes, as well as periods of high volatility and significant volumes. It’s important to find harmony within this apparent chaos. I think that chart interpretation cannot happen without considering the broader context, but the more variables I include in the analytical process, the more challenges arise. For instance, how can I determine if something is large (wide) or small (narrow)? For elements like volume or spread, my script provides a partial answer to this question. Now, let’s get to the point.
Technical Overview
The first technique I applied is Min-Max Normalization. With its help, the script adjusts volume and spread values to a range between 0 and 1. This allows for a comparable bar chart, where a wide bar represents volume, and a narrow one represents spread. Without normalization, visually comparing values that differ by several orders of magnitude would be inconvenient. If the indicator shows that one bar has a unit spread value while another has half that value, it means the first bar is twice as large. The ratio is preserved.
The second technique I used is Z-Score Standardization. This concept is based on the normal distribution, characterized by variables such as the mean and standard deviation, which measures data dispersion around the mean. The Z-Score indicates how many standard deviations a given value deviates from the population mean. The higher the Z-Score, the more the examined object deviates from the mean. If an object has a Z-Score of 3, it falls within 0.1% of the population, making it a rare occurrence or even an anomaly. In the context of chart analysis, such strong deviations are events like climaxes, which often signal the end of a trend, though not always. In my script, I assigned specific colors to frequently occurring Z-Score values:
Below 1 – Blue
Above 1 – Green
Above 2 – Red
Above 3 – Fuchsia
These colors are applied to both spread and volume, allowing for quick visual interpretation of data.
Volume Trend Detector (VTD)
The above forms the foundation of VPSA. However, I have extended the script with a Volume Trend Detector (VTD). The idea is that when I consider market structure - by market structure, I mean the overall chart, support and resistance levels, candles, and patterns typical of spread and volume analysis as well as Wyckoff patterns - I look for price ranges where there is a lack of supply, demand, or clues left behind by Smart Money or the market's enigmatic identity known as the Composite Man. This is essential because, as these clues and behaviors of market participants — expressed through the chart’s dynamics - reflect the actions, decisions, and emotions of all players. These behaviors can help interpret the bull-bear battle and estimate the probability of their next moves, which is one of the key factors for a trader relying on technical analysis to make a trade decision.
I enhanced the script with a Volume Trend Detector, which operates in two modes:
Step-by-Step Logic
The detector identifies expected volume dynamics. For instance, when looking for signs of a lack of bullish interest, I focus on setups with decreasing volatility and volume, particularly for bullish candles. These setups are referred to as No Demand patterns, according to Tom Williams' methodology.
Simple Moving Average (SMA)
The detector can also operate based on a simple moving average, helping to identify systematic trends in declining volume, indicating potential imbalances in market forces.
I’ve designed the program to allow the selection of candle types and volume characteristics to which the script will pay particular attention and notify me of specific market conditions.
Advantages and Disadvantages
Advantages:
Unified visualization of normalized spread and volume, saving time and improving efficiency.
The use of Z-Score as a consistent and repeatable relative mechanism for marking examined values.
The use of colors in visualization as a reference to Z-Score values.
The possibility to set up a continuous alert system that monitors the market in real time.
The use of EMA (Exponential Moving Average) as a moving average for Z-Score.
The goal of these features is to save my time, which is the only truly invaluable resource.
Disadvantages:
The assumption that the data follows a normal distribution, which may lead to inaccurate interpretations.
A fixed analysis period, which may not be perfectly suited to changing market conditions.
The use of EMA as a moving average for Z-Score, listed both as an advantage and a disadvantage depending on market context.
I have included comments within the code to explain the logic behind each part. For those who seek detailed mathematical formulas, I invite you to explore the code itself.
Defining Program Parameters:
Numerical Conditions:
VPSA Period for Analysis – The number of candles analyzed.
Normalized Spread Alert Threshold – The expected normalized spread value; defines how large or small the spread should be, with a range of 0-1.00.
Normalized Volume Alert Threshold – The expected normalized volume value; defines how large or small the volume should be, with a range of 0-1.00.
Spread Z-SCORE Alert Threshold – The Z-SCORE value for the spread; determines how much the spread deviates from the average, with a range of 0-4 (a higher value can be entered, but from a logical standpoint, exceeding 4 is unnecessary).
Volume Z-SCORE Alert Threshold – The Z-SCORE value for volume; determines how much the volume deviates from the average, with a range of 0-4 (the same logical note as above applies).
Logical Conditions:
Logical conditions describe whether the expected value should be less than or equal to or greater than or equal to the numerical condition.
All four parameters accept two possibilities and are analogous to the numerical conditions.
Volume Trend Detector:
Volume Trend Detector Period for Analysis – The analysis period, indicating the number of candles examined.
Method of Trend Determination – The method used to determine the trend. Possible values: Step by Step or SMA.
Trend Direction – The expected trend direction. Possible values: Upward or Downward.
Candle Type – The type of candle taken into account. Possible values: Bullish, Bearish, or Any.
The last available setting is the option to enable a joint alert for VPSA and VTD.
When enabled, VPSA will trigger on the last closed candle, regardless of the VTD analysis period.
Example Use Cases (Labels Visible in the Script Window Indicate Triggered Alerts):
The provided labels in the chart window mark where specific conditions were met and alerts were triggered.
Summary and Reflections
The program I present is a strong tool in the ongoing "game" with the Composite Man.
However, it requires familiarity and understanding of the underlying methodologies to fully utilize its potential.
Of course, like any technical analysis tool, it is not without flaws. There is no indicator that serves as a perfect Grail, accurately signaling Buy or Sell in every case.
I would like to thank those who have read through my thoughts to the end and are willing to take a closer look at my work by using this script.
If you encounter any errors or have suggestions for improvement, please feel free to contact me.
I wish you good health and accurately interpreted market structures, leading to successful trades!

Volatility IndicatorThe volatility indicator presented here is based on multiple volatility indices that reflect the market’s expectation of future price fluctuations across different asset classes, including equities, commodities, and currencies. These indices serve as valuable tools for traders and analysts seeking to anticipate potential market movements, as volatility is a key factor influencing asset prices and market dynamics (Bollerslev, 1986).
Volatility, defined as the magnitude of price changes, is often regarded as a measure of market uncertainty or risk. Financial markets exhibit periods of heightened volatility that may precede significant price movements, whether upward or downward (Christoffersen, 1998). The indicator presented in this script tracks several key volatility indices, including the VIX (S&P 500), GVZ (Gold), OVX (Crude Oil), and others, to help identify periods of increased uncertainty that could signal potential market turning points.
Volatility Indices and Their Relevance
Volatility indices like the VIX are considered “fear gauges” as they reflect the market’s expectation of future volatility derived from the pricing of options. A rising VIX typically signals increasing investor uncertainty and fear, which often precedes market corrections or significant price movements. In contrast, a falling VIX may suggest complacency or confidence in continued market stability (Whaley, 2000).
The other volatility indices incorporated in the indicator script, such as the GVZ (Gold Volatility Index) and OVX (Oil Volatility Index), capture the market’s perception of volatility in specific asset classes. For instance, GVZ reflects market expectations for volatility in the gold market, which can be influenced by factors such as geopolitical instability, inflation expectations, and changes in investor sentiment toward safe-haven assets. Similarly, OVX tracks the implied volatility of crude oil options, which is a crucial factor for predicting price movements in energy markets, often driven by geopolitical events, OPEC decisions, and supply-demand imbalances (Pindyck, 2004).
Using the Indicator to Identify Market Movements
The volatility indicator alerts traders when specific volatility indices exceed a defined threshold, which may signal a change in market sentiment or an upcoming price movement. These thresholds, set by the user, are typically based on historical levels of volatility that have preceded significant market changes. When a volatility index exceeds this threshold, it suggests that market participants expect greater uncertainty, which often correlates with increased price volatility and the possibility of a trend reversal.
For example, if the VIX exceeds a pre-determined level (e.g., 30), it could indicate that investors are anticipating heightened volatility in the equity markets, potentially signaling a downturn or correction in the broader market. On the other hand, if the OVX rises significantly, it could point to an upcoming sharp movement in crude oil prices, driven by changing market expectations about supply, demand, or geopolitical risks (Geman, 2005).
Practical Application
To effectively use this volatility indicator in market analysis, traders should monitor the alert signals generated when any of the volatility indices surpass their thresholds. This can be used to identify periods of market uncertainty or potential market turning points across different sectors, including equities, commodities, and currencies. The indicator can help traders prepare for increased price movements, adjust their risk management strategies, or even take advantage of anticipated price swings through options trading or volatility-based strategies (Black & Scholes, 1973).
Traders may also use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to validate the potential for significant market movements. For example, if the VIX exceeds its threshold and the market is simultaneously approaching a critical technical support or resistance level, the trader might consider entering a position that capitalizes on the anticipated price breakout or reversal.
Conclusion
This volatility indicator is a robust tool for identifying market conditions that are conducive to significant price movements. By tracking the behavior of key volatility indices, traders can gain insights into the market’s expectations of future price fluctuations, enabling them to make more informed decisions regarding market entries and exits. Understanding and monitoring volatility can be particularly valuable during times of heightened uncertainty, as changes in volatility often precede substantial shifts in market direction (French et al., 1987).

Directional Volume IndexDirectional Volume Index (DVI) (buying/selling pressure)
This index is adapted from the Directional Movement Index (DMI), but based on volume instead of price movements. The idea is to detect building directional volume indicating a growing amount of orders that will eventually cause the price to follow. (DVI is not displayed by default)
The rough algorithm for the Positive Directional Volume Index (green bar):
calculate the delta to the previous green bar's volume
if the delta is positive (growing buying pressure) add it to an SMA, else add 0 (also for red bars)
divide these average deltas by the average volume
the result is the Positive Directional Volume Index (DVI+) (vice versa for DVI-)
Differential Directional Volume Index (DDVI) (relative pressure)
Creating the difference of both Directional Volume Indexes (DVI+ - DVI-) creates the Differential Directional Volume Index (DDVI) with rising values indicating a growing buying pressure, falling values a growing selling pressure. (DDVI is displayed by default, smoothed by a custom moving average)
Average Directional Volume Index (ADVX) (pressure strength)
Putting the relative pressure (DDVI) in relation to the total pressure (DVI+ + DVI-) we can determine the strength and duration of the currently building volume change / trend. For the DMI/ADX usually 20 is an indicator for a strong trend, values above 50 suggesting exhaustion and approaching reversals. (ADVX is not displayed by default, smoothed by a custom moving average)
Divergences of the Differential Directional Volume Index (DDVI) (imbalances)
By detecting divergences we can detect situations where e.g. bullish volume starts to build while price is in a downtrend, suggesting that there is growing buying pressure indicating an imminent bullish pullback/order block or reversal. (strong and hidden divergences are displayed by default)
Divergences Overview:
strong bull: higher lows on volume, lower lows on price
medium bull: higher lows on volume, equal lows on price
weak bull: equal lows on volume, lower lows on price
hidden bull: lower lows on volume, higher lows on price
strong bear: lower highs on volume, higher highs on price
medium bear: lower highs on volume, equal highs on price
weak bear: equal highs on volume, higher highs on price
hidden bear: higher highs on volume, lower highs on price
DDVI Bands (dynamic overbought/oversold levels)
Using Bollinger Bands with DDVI as source we receive an averaged relative pressure with stdev band offsets. This can be used as dynamic overbought/oversold levels indicating reversals on sharp crossovers.
Alerts
As of now there are no alerts built in, but all internal data is exposed via plot and plotshape functions, so it can be used for custom crossover conditions in the alert dialog. This is still a personal research project, so if you find good setups, please let me know.
