Rpaid Killzone Breakout v3.6Final Indicator Title: Rapid Killzone Break & HTF Levels
Overview
Welcome to the Rapid Killzone Break & HTF Levels, an all-in-one trading toolkit designed for precision and context. This indicator was built to solve a common problem for day traders: how to combine a precise, lower-timeframe (LTF) entry model with the essential context of higher-timeframe (HTF) levels.
This tool is founded on a session-based breakout strategy, leveraging the volatility and liquidity generated during specific market hours (the "Killzones"). It then layers critical HTF support and resistance levels onto your chart, allowing you to make more informed trading decisions without ever needing to switch timeframes.
Whether you trade Forex, Gold, or major Indices, this indicator provides a comprehensive framework for identifying high-probability breakout opportunities.
The Core Strategy
The methodology is a powerful three-step process based on session liquidity and qualified breakouts:
The Killzone Range: The indicator first identifies the high and low established during a specific, high-volatility trading session (e.g., the first hour of London or New York). This range acts as a pool of liquidity. The core idea is that the market will often seek to "sweep" or run the liquidity resting above the session high or below the session low.
The Qualified Breakout: This is not just any breakout strategy. A valid entry signal only appears when price closes decisively outside the Killzone range with significant momentum. To ensure the quality of the signal, the breakout must meet several user-defined criteria:
The Killzone must have a minimum pip range.
The breakout candle must have a strong body-to-wick ratio.
The breakout must be accompanied by a spike in volume.
Higher Timeframe Confluence: A breakout is more likely to succeed if it aligns with the HTF narrative. This indicator plots the previous higher-timeframe candle's high and low directly onto your chart. These levels act as powerful magnets for price or as formidable support/resistance zones. A breakout on the LTF that targets the HTF previous high is a much higher-probability setup than one trading directly into it.
Key Features
📊 DST-Aware Killzones: Automatically adjusting session boxes for London and New York. The timezones are fully configurable (e.g., Europe/London, America/New_York) and automatically handle Daylight Saving Time changes so you never have to manually adjust them.
📈 Killzone Pivots: Automatically draws the High, Low, and a dotted Midpoint from each Killzone session, acting as key intraday levels.
🏛️ Higher Timeframe (HTF) Levels: Plots the previous HTF candle's High and Low as dashed lines on your chart, providing critical context for support, resistance, and targets.
🕯️ HTF Mini-Candles: Displays a visual summary of the last three HTF candles on the right side of your chart, so you can see the HTF trend at a glance.
⏰ Custom Vertical Timestamps: Up to three configurable vertical lines with labels to mark key events like other session opens (e.g., "Sydney Open").
🎛️ Advanced Breakout Filters: Fine-tune your signals with filters for minimum Killzone range, minimum candle body percentage, and volume spikes. (Important: The volume filter requires a data feed that provides real volume, such as OANDA, FXCM, or futures/stock data).
✅ Dynamic Entry Advice Table: After a signal, a table provides a suggested entry technique (e.g., "50% retrace to signal candle") based on how far price has moved from the breakout level.
📋 Killzone Range Stats Table: A clean table shows the current and average pip range for both the London and New York sessions, helping you gauge current volatility.
🛠️ Fully Customizable: Nearly every visual element can be toggled on/off or have its color and style changed to suit your personal chart theme.
How to Use This Indicator
This tool is designed to provide a clear, step-by-step workflow for your trading sessions.
Setup: In the settings, choose your desired Reference Timeframe (e.g., 240 for 4-Hour). Configure your Killzone session times and colors.
Context is King: Before the session begins, take note of where price is in relation to the dashed HTF High/Low lines. Is price consolidating below the previous HTF low? A breakout might target it. Is price approaching the HTF high? This could be a take-profit area or a point of resistance.
Wait for the Range: Allow the London or New York Killzone (the colored box) to form completely.
Anticipate the Breakout: Once the session box is closed, the indicator is now hunting for a valid breakout.
Validate the Signal: When a "Long" or "Short" label appears, this is your entry signal. Check the Info-Box data (RSI, volume, candle body %) to confirm the strength of the move.
Manage the Trade: Use the Killzone pivots and the HTF High/Low lines as potential areas to manage your trade, take partial profits, or identify a final target. Check the Entry Advice table for ideas on refined entries if you miss the initial move.
Applicable Markets
This strategy is most effective on instruments known for their session-based volatility. It has been tested and works exceptionally well on:
Forex Majors: EUR/USD, GBP/USD, etc.
Gold: XAU/USD
Indices: NASDAQ 100 (NQ100), S&P 500 (SPX500)
It is best used on lower timeframes (such as the 5-minute or 15-minute chart) for trade execution.

Protected Pivots Points by RiotwolftradingProtected Pivots Points by Riotwolftrading
---
You have an advanced visual tool designed for traders who want to identify and manage key price levels with maximum precision.
This script detects protected pivots (significant highs and lows) and marks them with horizontal lines on the chart. These lines automatically extend for a fixed number of bars or until price invalidates the level with a closing break.
---
🚀 What makes this indicator special?
---
✅ Protected pivot detection:
The indicator identifies protected highs and lows using a fixed pivot strength
✅ Wick break detection (liquidity sweep visualization):
When a wick crosses the pivot level **without the candle closing beyond the level, the indicator automatically changes the line’s color and style.
👉 This immediately shows the trader that the level was tested but remains structurally valid.
✅ Highly customizable visuals:
* Choose whether to show color for protected highs, lows, or wick break levels.
* Set your own colors, line styles (solid, dashed, dotted), and line widths.
---
### 🌟 Why is wick break detection so valuable?
---
💡 Instant context on price action:
No need to manually check every candle to see if a level was barely tested. The indicator changes the line’s appearance automatically, so you can focus on decisions.
💡 Clear distinction between untouched levels and tested levels:
* A level with no wick test is pristine support/resistance.
* A level tested by a wick but not invalidated is still valid — but may have been swept for liquidity.
💡 Crucial for precision trading strategies:
This is particularly important for strategies that rely on:
✅ Liquidity sweeps / stop hunts.
✅ Reversals from tested zones.
✅ Smart Money Concepts (SMC).
✅ ICT concepts, breakers, Quasimodo, BOS/MSS.
The wick break visualization helps filter false breakouts and highlights areas where institutional players may have stepped in.
💡 Avoid premature exits or entries:**
The color/style change tells you a level was tested but not broken, so you avoid overreacting to wick activity.
---
### ⚡ Example use case**
Imagine a protected low line:
🔹 Price dips and its wick touches the level — the line changes color (e.g. violet solid line).
🔹 The level is still valid because the close didn’t break it.
🔹 This could signal a stop hunt or liquidity grab, with a possible reversal opportunity right at that level.
---
### 🧭 **Why most pivot indicators don’t offer this**
Most pivot indicators:
❌ Simply mark the level and remove it after a close break.
❌ Don’t distinguish between a wick test and a true break.
🌟 **This indicator does — giving traders an extra layer of market insight.**
---
### ⚠ **Disclaimer**
This indicator is a visual aid to help identify key levels and price reactions. It does **not** generate buy or sell signals and should be used alongside your trading analysis and strategy.

SMT - JimmyTrades🔧 SMT – JimmyTrades: Publication Rules and User Guide
📌 What This Script Does
This script detects Smart Money Traps (SMT) Divergences between the instrument on your chart and a comparative symbol (default: ES). It automatically plots both confirmed and unconfirmed bullish and bearish SMT setups across multiple timeframes.
These SMT divergences can help traders:
Identify potential reversal points
Confirm high-probability entries in line with smart money behavior
Enhance bias when confluence aligns with other market structure or liquidity factors
⚙️ Important Settings
Please make sure you correctly configure the following inputs:
Symbol: The comparative asset to check divergence against. Common examples: ES, NQ, SPX.
Session Type: Ensure this matches your chart’s session setting: Extended or Regular.
Adjustment Type: Match this to your chart (None, Dividends, or Splits) under TradingView’s chart settings (bottom-right corner).
Pivot Lookback: Controls the sensitivity of divergence detection (default is 15). Higher values reduce signal frequency.
Timeframes: You can enable up to six timeframes independently for SMT scanning.
🟢 Bullish SMT Signals
Bullish SMTs are identified when price on your chart makes a lower low, but the comparative symbol (e.g., ES) does not, suggesting potential accumulation or trap liquidity.
🔴 Bearish SMT Signals
Bearish SMTs are flagged when your chart makes a higher high, while the comparative symbol fails to do so, hinting at distribution or a stop run setup.
📈 How to Use This Script
Add the indicator to your chart.
Set the correct comparative symbol (e.g., ES for NQ, SPX for SPY, etc.).
Choose your preferred timeframes.
Watch for unconfirmed SMTs (dotted lines) as potential early warnings.
Look for confirmed SMTs (solid lines) once price respects the divergence zone for several bars.
Combine with structure, liquidity sweeps, killzones, and high-impact news for higher confluence.
🧠 Best Practices
Use SMT signals as part of a broader trade plan—not standalone entries.
Focus on SMTs forming after liquidity sweeps or during session opens (London/NY).
Combine with your higher-timeframe bias, breaker blocks, or Pegasus/Unicorn entry models.
⚠️ Limitations
Historical backtest may show perfect SMTs—real-time confirmation requires patience.
SMTs may not play out without proper context—avoid blindly entering based on signal alone.
This script is not financial advice—use at your own discretion and always manage risk.
Quarterly Theory ICT 04 [TradingFinder] SSMT 4Quarter Divergence🔵 Introduction
Sequential SMT Divergence is an advanced price-action-based analytical technique rooted in the ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology. Its primary objective is to identify early-stage divergences between correlated assets within precise time structures. This tool not only breaks down market structure but also enables traders to detect engineered liquidity traps before the market reacts.
In simple terms, SMT (Smart Money Technique) occurs when two correlated assets—such as indices (ES and NQ), currency pairs (EURUSD and GBPUSD), or commodities (Gold and Silver)—exhibit different reactions at key price levels (swing highs or lows). This lack of alignment is often a sign of smart money manipulation and signals a lack of confirmation in the ongoing trend—hinting at an imminent reversal or at least a pause in momentum.
In its Sequential form, SMT divergences are examined through a more granular temporal lens—between intraday quarters (Q1 through Q4). When SMT appears at the transition from one quarter to another (e.g., Q1 to Q2 or Q3 to Q4), the signal becomes significantly more powerful, often aligning with a critical phase in the Quarterly Theory—a framework that segments market behavior into four distinct phases: Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, and Reversal/Continuation.
For instance, a Bullish SMT forms when one asset prints a new low while its correlated counterpart fails to break the corresponding low from the previous quarter. This usually indicates absorption of selling pressure and the beginning of accumulation by smart money. Conversely, a Bearish SMT arises when one asset makes a higher high, but the second asset fails to confirm, signaling distribution or a fake-out before a decline.
However, SMT alone is not enough. To confirm a true Market Structure Break (MSB), the appearance of a Precision Swing Point (PSP) is essential—a specific candlestick formation on a lower timeframe (typically 5 to 15 minutes) that reveals the entry of institutional participants. The combination of SMT and PSP provides a more accurate entry point and better understanding of premium and discount zones.
The Sequential SMT Indicator, introduced in this article, dynamically scans charts for such divergence patterns across multiple sessions. It is applicable to various markets including Forex, crypto, commodities, and indices, and shows particularly strong performance during mid-week sessions (Wednesdays and Thursdays)—when most weekly highs and lows tend to form.
Bullish Sequential SMT :
Bearish Sequential SMT :
🔵 How to Use
The Sequential SMT (SSMT) indicator is designed to detect time and structure-based divergences between two correlated assets. This divergence occurs when both assets print a similar swing (high or low) in the previous quarter (e.g., Q3), but in the current quarter (e.g., Q4), only one asset manages to break that swing level—while the other fails to reach it.
This temporal mismatch is precisely identified by the SSMT indicator and often signals smart money activity, a market phase transition, or even the presence of an engineered liquidity trap. The signal becomes especially powerful when paired with a Precision Swing Point (PSP)—a confirming candle on lower timeframes (5m–15m) that typically indicates a market structure break (MSB) and the entry of smart liquidity.
🟣 Bullish Sequential SMT
In the previous quarter, both assets form a similar swing low.
In the current quarter, one asset (e.g., EURUSD) breaks that low and trades below it.
The other asset (e.g., GBPUSD) fails to reach the same low, preserving the structure.
This time-based divergence reflects declining selling pressure, potential absorption, and often marks the end of a manipulation phase and the start of accumulation. If confirmed by a bullish PSP candle, it offers a strong long opportunity, with stop-losses defined just below the swing low.
🟣 Bearish Sequential SMT
In the previous quarter, both assets form a similar swing high.
In the current quarter, one asset (e.g., NQ) breaks above that high.
The other asset (e.g., ES) fails to reach that high, remaining below it.
This type of divergence signals weakening bullish momentum and the likelihood of distribution or a fake-out before a price drop. When followed by a bearish PSP candle, it sets up a strong shorting opportunity with targets in the discount zone and protective stops placed above the swing high.

🔵 Conclusion
The Sequential SMT (SSMT) indicator is a powerful and precise tool for identifying structural divergences between correlated assets within a time-based framework. Unlike traditional divergence models that rely solely on sequential pivot comparisons, SSMT leverages Quarterly Theory, in combination with concepts like liquidity sweeps, market structure breaks (MSB) and precision swing points (PSP), to provide a deeper and more actionable view of market dynamics.
By using SSMT, traders gain not only the ability to identify where divergence occurs, but also when it matters most within the market cycle. This empowers them to anticipate major moves or traps before they fully materialize, and position themselves accordingly in high-probability trade zones.
Whether you're trading Forex, crypto, indices, or commodities, the true strength of this indicator is revealed when used in sync with the Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, and Reversal phases of the market. Integrated with other confluence tools and market models, SSMT can serve as a core component in a professional, rule-based, and highly personalized trading strategy.

Swing Failure Pattern (SFP) [LuxAlgo]The Swing Failure Pattern indicator highlights Swing Failure Patterns (SFP) on the user chart, a pattern occurring during liquidity generation from significant market participants.
A Confirmation level used to confirm a trend reversal is also included. Users can additionally filter out SFP based on a set Volume % Threshold .
🔶 USAGE
Swing failure patterns occur when candle wicks exceed (above/below) a recent swing level but close back below/above it, and occur from more significant market participants engineering liquidity. This pattern can be indicative of a potential trend reversal.
A label and an accentuated wick line highlight the SFP (both can be disabled).
Using a higher "Swings" period will not return different SFP but will however potentially reduce their detection rate.
🔹 Confirmation Level
The confirmation level is the highest point between the previous swing and SFP for a bullish SFP, and the lowest point for a bearish SFP. This level allows confirming a trend reversal after an SFP once the price breaks it.
A small triangle will be displayed when the price closes beyond the confirmation level.
A more reactive and contrarian approach could use the SFP as an entry point, and the confirmation level for taking (partial) profit, or stop loss. The example below shows a possible scenario:
🔹 Volume % Threshold
During the occurrence of an SFP, the Volume % Threshold option allows comparing the cumulative volume outside the Swing level to the total volume of the candle. The following options are included:
Volume outside swing < Threshold: Volume outside the Swing level needs to be lower than x % of total candle volume. Prevent excessive liquidity generation.
Volume outside swing > Threshold: Volume outside the Swing level needs to be higher than x % of total candle volume. Requires more significant liquidity to be generated.
None: No extra filter is applied
Note that in the above case, the left SFP is no longer highlighted because the volume above the swing level was higher than the 25% threshold of the total volume.
When we change the setting to "Volume outside swing > Threshold", we get the reversed situation.
The "Volume outside Swing level" is obtained using intrabar - Lower TimeFrame (LTF) data.
At the intrabar (LTF) level, there are a maximum of 100K bars available. When using the Volume % Threshold filter, a vertical line will highlight the maximum period during which intrabars are available.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 LTF Settings
When 'Auto' is enabled (Settings, LTF), the LTF will be the nearest possible x times smaller TF than the current TF. When 'Premium' is disabled, the minimum TF will always be 1 minute to ensure TradingView plans lower than Premium don't get an error.
Examples with current Daily TF (when Premium is enabled):
500 : 3-minute LTF
1500 (default): 1-minute LTF
5000: 30 seconds LTF (1 minute if Premium is disabled)
The concerning LTF can be seen at the right-top (default) corner.
🔶 SETTINGS
Swings: Period used for the swing detection, with higher values returning longer-term Swing Levels.
Bullish SFP: enable/disable bullish Swing Failure Patterns.
Bearish SFP: enable/disable bearish Swing Failure Patterns.
🔹 Volume Validation
Validation:
Volume outside swing < Threshold: The volume outside the swing level needs to be lower than x % of the total volume.
Volume outside swing > Threshold: The volume outside the swing level needs to be higher than x % of the total volume.
None: No extra validation is applied.
Volume % Threshold: % of total volume as threshold.

[KVA] ICT Dealing rangesNaive aproach of Dynamic Detection of Dealing Ranges:
The script dynamically identifies dealing ranges based on sequences of upward or downward price movements. It uses arrays to track the highest highs and lowest lows after detecting two consecutive up or down bars, a fundamental step towards understanding market structure and potential shifts in momentum.
ICT Concept: Order Blocks & Fair Value Gaps. This aspect can be linked to the identification of order blocks (bullish or bearish) and fair value gaps. Order blocks are essentially the last bearish or bullish candle before a significant price move, which this script could approximate by identifying the highs and lows of potential reversal zones.
Red and Green Ranges for Bullish and Bearish Movements:
The script separates these movements into red (bearish) and green (bullish) ranges, effectively categorizing potential areas of selling and buying pressure.
ICT Concept: Liquidity Pools. Red ranges could be indicative of areas where selling might occur, potentially leading to liquidity pools below these ranges. Conversely, green ranges might indicate potential buying pressure, with liquidity pools above. These areas are critical for ICT traders, as they often represent zones where price may return to "hunt" for liquidity.
Horizontal Lines for High and Low Points:
The indicator draws horizontal lines at the high and low points of these ranges, offering visual cues for significant levels.
ICT Concept: Breaker Blocks & Mitigation Sequences. The high and low points of these ranges can be seen as potential breaker blocks or areas for future mitigation sequences. In ICT terms, breaker blocks are areas where institutional orders have overwhelmed retail stop clusters, creating potential entry points for trend continuation or reversal. The high and low points marked by the indicator could serve as references for these sequences, where price might return to retest these levels.
Customizability and Historical Depth:
With inputs like rangePlot and maxBarsBack, the indicator allows for customization of the number of ranges to display and how far back in the chart history it looks to identify these ranges. This flexibility is crucial for tailoring the analysis to different trading strategies and timeframes.
ICT Concept: Market Structure Analysis. The ability to adjust the depth and number of ranges plotted caters to a detailed market structure analysis, an essential component of ICT methodology. Traders can adjust these parameters to better understand the distribution of buying and selling pressure over time and how actions have shaped price movements.
FVG in MACROGuided by ICT tutoring, I created this versatile indicator to scan the FVG in MACRO time.
This indicator combines the MACRO time with the Fair value GAP (FVG) in an alternative way, showing a simple way of viewing the FVG within the MACRO time, so you can have a clearer view of which direction the MACRO is influencing
''MACRO is a delivery time frame of the interbank price in which it undergoes a series of controls and is likely to move towards liquidity.''
The user has the possibility to:
- Choose the relevant MACRO time
- Choose whether to view all FVGs in the MACROS
- Choose to view only the First FVG at each MACRO
The indicator should be used as shown by the ICT in its concepts, during the MACRO time the price can consolidate or can head towards liquidity.
The probability that the direction is correct increases with respect for the FVG, in this way it is possible to evaluate the entry zone in the FVG and the Take profit zone for Liquidity
As in the following example:
SFC Smart Money Manipulation - MTF ZonesThis indicator shows the most important manipulated zones - true support and resistance.
The indicator can show the zones from different time frames - 1H, 4H, D and the current TF.
Order Block definition - small candle or few consecutive candles, where banks place buy and sell orders in order to manipulate the price. After price is manipulated and moved in one direction, the banks are in draw down, that is why they manipulate the price one more time before the true move, retesting these candles (closing losing positions).
FU candles
FU candles are most manipulated candles and create very strong reaction zones. These are the true zones, where the banks place their orders.
Why they are so strong? The answer is very simple - these candles clear the liquidity from the previous ones. After the liquidity is cleared ( all stop losses/pending orders are triggered), price reveal the true direction and move very fast.
FU candles are type of Order Blocks - the most powerful one.
Because the most volume is in the body of the order block. The indicator shows not only the FU candle, but the body of the order block.
There are two types of FU candles :
(only full FU candles are displayed as zones, because they are much significant)
1) Full fu, where the current candle completely engulf the previous one, after taking the liquidity. (displayed as F)
2) Current candle only take liquidity from the previous one, but failed to engulf it. (displayed as A)
9 day simple moving average is also displayed. When the price form Fu candle above/under the MA, there is a better chance for reversal.
When FU candles are retested the transparency will change, showing that the zones may have less impact.
Order Blocks
Only the current order blocks are displayed. Price react very often from the 50% level, that is why this level is also displayed.
Rejections
Rejections are doji candles or candles with big wicks. These rejections very often lead to reversals or deep pullbacks. But before the true move, price test the rejection levels. The retest is not always, but very often of the 50% of the wick.
The rejections are very important price zone.
The indicator can show the zones from different time frames - 1H, 4H, D and the current TF. When wicks are retested the transparency and colour will change, showing that the wicks may have less impact or no more impact.
Settings
-The colour and transparency of the zones can be changed.
- Multi time frames zones could be disabled.
- Doji settings
- Length of the moving average
How to use
If price reach one of the displayed zones. The trader should be prepared for price reaction. This reaction could lead to reversal, pull back or trading range.
The trader should have bias from the higher time frames and watch for signs of manipulations on smaller time frames.
BITCOIN KILL ZONES v2Kill Zones
Kill zones are really liquidity events. Many different market participants often come together and act around these events. The activity itself may be event driven (margin calls or options exercise related activity), portfolio management driven (buy-on-close and asset allocation rebalancing orders) or institutionally driven (larger players needing liquidity to get filled in size) or a combination of any/all three. The point is, this intense cross current of activity at a very specific point in time often occurs near significant technical levels and trends established coming out of these events often persist until the next Kill Zone in approached/entered.
Specifically, there are three Kill Zones and each has its own importance/significance.
1. Asian Kill Zone (1900 - 2300 EST) Considered the "institutional" zone, this zone represents both the launch pad for new trends and also too a reloading area from the post American session. It is the start of a new day (or week) for the world and as such it makes sense this zone will often set the tone for the rest of the world's trading day. Since it is very wide (4 hours) one should pay attention to the Tokyo open (2100 EST) the Beijing open (2120 EST) and the Sydney open (0650 EST previous day).
2. London Kill Zone (0200 - 0400 EST) Considered the center of the financial universe for more than 500 years, Europe still carries a lot of influence within the banking world. Many larger players use the Euro session to establish their positions. As such, the London open often sees the most significant trend establishment activity through any given trading day. Indeed, it has been suggested 80% of all weekly trends are established through Tuesday's London Kill Zone.
3. New York Kill Zone (0830 - 1030 EST) The United States is still by far the world's largest economy and so by default New York's open carries a lot of weight and often comes with a big injection of liquidity. Indeed, most of the world's trade-able assets are priced in US dollars which gives even more significance to political and economic activity within this region. Because it comes relatively late in the globe's trading day, this Kill Zone often sees violent price swings within it's first hour leading to the time tested adage "never trust the first hour of North American trading.
Additional notes:
It has become apparent these Kill Zones are evolving over time and the course of world history. Since the end of the second world war, New York has slowly encroached on London's place as the global center for commercial banking. So much so through the later part of the 20th century New York was considered indeed, the new center of the financial universe. With the end of the cold war that leadership seems to have shifted back toward Europe and away from The United States. Additionally, Japan has slowly lost its former predominance within the global economic landscape while Beijing's has risen dramatically.
Only time will tell how these kill zones will evolve given each region's ever changing political, economic and socioeconomic influences.
Trading Notes:
If you have specific levels of interest odds are the bigger players have the same levels too. If it is indeed a solid level, look for price to trade to your level through the kill zone because the zone is a liquidity event where the bigger players can find enough size to get their big orders filled.
Try to avoid taking positions heading into Kill Zones and look for confirmation of your levels coming out of the event. For the more advanced trader, look to take positions on those level hits through the zone but understand higher time frame players often have far deeper pockets then day traders and can endure far more volatility then us little guys.

Dollar Volume + SD [ZTD]### So, What's the Big Deal with SD Dollar Volume?
TL:DR
What you see:
1. $ Volume = (Price * Volume) / 1M (we divide it by 1M by default so you don't have to look at 12 digits but you can select between 100k/1M/10M)
2. User selected M.A. period with difference sources
3. Up to 4 Standard Deviation from that M.A.
4. Color coded (explained below)
That's it, no fancy useless multi color rainbows. Functional, bringing depth and clarity to your analysis based on reality not optical illusion.
--------------
The Long version
You know how we've always looked at volume? It's a classic, but it's got a blind spot. A million shares traded when a stock is at $10 is a completely different ballgame from a million shares traded when it's at $200. The first is $10M in action; the second is $200M. Traditional volume treats them the same, but they are not the same story.
That's the whole idea behind the **Dollar Volume Standard Deviation (SD $VVOLUME)** indicator. Instead of just counting shares, it tracks the **actual dollar amount** ( also refered as Dollar Volume) changing hands. This gives you a much clearer picture of the real financial power behind a price move. It helps you see when the "big money" is truly stepping in or backing off.
Think about it this way: after a 20% drop on earnings, you might see a 10% volume increase and think, "Wow, buyers are stepping in!" But if you look at the *value traded*, it might actually be lower than the day before because the share price is so much cheaper. This indicator cuts through that noise.
What about that smaller stock you bought that suddenly doubles in prices in a matter of months. Do you really thing the volume you are looking at carries any meaning anymore?
On longer time frame? Think about Volume traded vs Value Traded on NVDA for example. Looking at volume alone on those charts is absolutely meaningless. I even wonder why volume alone ever existed in the first place as an indicator.
### How to Use It in Your Trading
This isn't just theory; here’s how you can actually use it to make better decisions.
#### Reading the Indicator
The indicator is designed to be visual and intuitive. Here’s what you're looking at:
* **The Bars:** Each bar on the indicator represents the total dollar value traded during that period. Bigger bar, more money moved.
* **The White Line:** This is your baseline—the moving average of the value traded. It shows you the normal level of money flow for that stock.
* **Bar Colors (The Important Part):**
* **Direction:** **Green** means the stock closed higher in that period. **Red** means it closed lower. Simple enough.
* **Intensity:** This is the real magic. The brightness or intensity of the color tells you how significant that money flow was. A dull, faded bar means the value traded was pretty average. A **bright, intense bar** means the value was way above normal (usually 1 or 2 standard deviations away from the average). *That's* when you need to pay attention.
#### Actionable Signals for Your Strategy
* **Spotting High-Conviction Moves:** When you see a bright, intense red or green bar that towers over the others, that's a signal of major conviction. Big players are making a decisive move, either buying up everything in sight or dumping their positions. This is your cue that something significant is happening.
* **Confirming a Trend's Strength:** Are you in a strong uptrend? Look for a consistent pattern of bright green bars. This tells you that significant capital is flowing in to support the rising price. It's confirmation that the trend has legs.
* **Catching a Weakening Trend (Divergence):** This is a powerful one. Imagine the stock price is grinding out new highs, but on the SD
V
VOLUME
indicator, the bars are getting smaller and less intense. That's a major red flag. It shows that even though the price is inching up, the real money isn't following. There's no conviction, and the trend could be about to reverse.
* **Gauging Liquidity:** If the bars are consistently low and dull, it's a sign that interest in the stock is drying up. It's a good way to spot illiquid conditions and avoid getting trapped in a stock that's hard to get out of.
Ultimately, SD SEED_YASHALGO_NSE_BREADTH:VOLUME helps you see the market from a different angle. It's not just about the noise of shares being traded; it's about following the money.
Tensor Market Analysis Engine (TMAE)# Tensor Market Analysis Engine (TMAE)
## Advanced Multi-Dimensional Mathematical Analysis System
*Where Quantum Mathematics Meets Market Structure*
---
## 🎓 THEORETICAL FOUNDATION
The Tensor Market Analysis Engine represents a revolutionary synthesis of three cutting-edge mathematical frameworks that have never before been combined for comprehensive market analysis. This indicator transcends traditional technical analysis by implementing advanced mathematical concepts from quantum mechanics, information theory, and fractal geometry.
### 🌊 Multi-Dimensional Volatility with Jump Detection
**Hawkes Process Implementation:**
The TMAE employs a sophisticated Hawkes process approximation for detecting self-exciting market jumps. Unlike traditional volatility measures that treat price movements as independent events, the Hawkes process recognizes that market shocks cluster and exhibit memory effects.
**Mathematical Foundation:**
```
Intensity λ(t) = μ + Σ α(t - Tᵢ)
```
Where market jumps at times Tᵢ increase the probability of future jumps through the decay function α, controlled by the Hawkes Decay parameter (0.5-0.99).
**Mahalanobis Distance Calculation:**
The engine calculates volatility jumps using multi-dimensional Mahalanobis distance across up to 5 volatility dimensions:
- **Dimension 1:** Price volatility (standard deviation of returns)
- **Dimension 2:** Volume volatility (normalized volume fluctuations)
- **Dimension 3:** Range volatility (high-low spread variations)
- **Dimension 4:** Correlation volatility (price-volume relationship changes)
- **Dimension 5:** Microstructure volatility (intrabar positioning analysis)
This creates a volatility state vector that captures market behavior impossible to detect with traditional single-dimensional approaches.
### 📐 Hurst Exponent Regime Detection
**Fractal Market Hypothesis Integration:**
The TMAE implements advanced Rescaled Range (R/S) analysis to calculate the Hurst exponent in real-time, providing dynamic regime classification:
- **H > 0.6:** Trending (persistent) markets - momentum strategies optimal
- **H < 0.4:** Mean-reverting (anti-persistent) markets - contrarian strategies optimal
- **H ≈ 0.5:** Random walk markets - breakout strategies preferred
**Adaptive R/S Analysis:**
Unlike static implementations, the TMAE uses adaptive windowing that adjusts to market conditions:
```
H = log(R/S) / log(n)
```
Where R is the range of cumulative deviations and S is the standard deviation over period n.
**Dynamic Regime Classification:**
The system employs hysteresis to prevent regime flipping, requiring sustained Hurst values before regime changes are confirmed. This prevents false signals during transitional periods.
### 🔄 Transfer Entropy Analysis
**Information Flow Quantification:**
Transfer entropy measures the directional flow of information between price and volume, revealing lead-lag relationships that indicate future price movements:
```
TE(X→Y) = Σ p(yₜ₊₁, yₜ, xₜ) log
```
**Causality Detection:**
- **Volume → Price:** Indicates accumulation/distribution phases
- **Price → Volume:** Suggests retail participation or momentum chasing
- **Balanced Flow:** Market equilibrium or transition periods
The system analyzes multiple lag periods (2-20 bars) to capture both immediate and structural information flows.

Flat Tops/Bottoms aka Devil's MarkThis Pine script indicator is designed to visually depict price inefficiencies, as identified by Flat Top/Bottom Candles (aka Devil's Mark). A Flat Top/Bottom Candle is a scenario where there is an absence of a wick at the top or the bottom of the candle. These represent zones of inefficiency and will frequently act as magnets for price that the market will strive to rebalance in accordance with ICT principles.
Relevance:
Flat Top/Bottom Candles are zones where price delivery didn't provide opportunity for manipulation representing an inefficiency that the market will seek to rebalance. Consequently, these zones can provide good targets for entries in the opposite direction or take profit targets for previous entries in the direction of the Flat Top/Bottom Candle.
How It Works:
The indicator keeps track of all Flat Top/Bottom Candles from the beginning of the available history. It automatically removes all mitigated Flat Top/Bottom Candles, which are situations where the price has gone past the candle without a wick.
Configurability:
You can configure the colors, style & width of the lines used to represent flat top/bottom candles.
What makes this indicator different:
Designed with high performance in mind, to reduce impact on chart render time.
Only keeping the currently valid flat top/bottoms on the chart.
Liquidation Levels V2 (Ultimate Edition)!(version 2.0) - Covers ALL pairs from Binance futures (USDT)!
The Liquidations Level Indicator is a new, fresh and innovative indicator that adds a new perspective into the charts.
The indicator plots (in real time !), the liquidation points/levels that are "created" for every new position that is currently opened in futures trading of a cryptocurrency.
The calculation and the plots work for both directions (either longs or shorts).
How it is done: We calculate all new large positions opened by other traders, by taking into account the Open Interest from major exchanges.
For each new large position that is opened, the indicator plots in the chart the liquidation levels for the specific position per leverage level (100x, 50x or 25x).
This is exactly what the Market Maker knows!
In crypto, the Market Maker, tends to push the price to these levels, making these levels targets.
You could combined it with any other Technical Analysis indicator you used to trade.
Add it to your favorites indicators and enjoy the price action. You will soon realize that our indicator can be a game-changer indicator !
Soon, we will add some here in TradingView, some ideas and strategies that we have already used with this indicator with success.
Here, a new game starts for you..and the Market Maker. Don't trade against him, trade with him (!)
_____________________________
Notes:
_____________________________
1) Second version supports allt the USDT crypto that are tradable on Binance futures (at least).
Right now you can use any of them (e.g. BTC , ETH, BNB, XRP, ADA, SOL, DOT, DOGE, MATIC, LTC, ATOM, , etc. )
paired with one of the above stablecoins:
USD, USDT, USDC , or BUSD.
2) You can adjust the lower limit to take into account for new positions (total amount is in millions USD/USDT/ USDC ), so you can filter the positions and display only the large ones.
This adjustment is up to you and it is different for each coin, as they have huge differences in Total Market Cap and the Total amount trading per day.
BTC is almost always first, and then ETH, Luna, etc. From our experience a amount of 5m in USD fits for BTC , 2m USD for ETH, and you can of course switch it.
3) Don't use the indicator with any other pair, except the above ( /USD, /USDT, /BUSD or / USDC ). The Open Interest is calculated per USD, so if you project this over a crazy pair (e.g. BTC /LTC) it will not project anything.
4) Initial version supports reading the Open Interest from Binance. Upcoming versions will expand this, as an option.

Demand & Supply Zones [eyes20xx]Demand & Supply Zones
This indicator helps to identify large moves driven by institutions.
What qualifies as a zone?
If the price moves (open to close) by more than a certain % in one candle or in a bullish / bearish run of candles, the zone is marked as a Demand or Supply zone .
0.8% is good for Crypto and Forex might be better with 0.4%. Play around with the % to match your requirements.
Active zones
A zone remains active until it is hit by the price. When it becomes inactive, the zone background becomes transparent.
Zone lines
Lines are displayed if the zone is active and within a certain % of the close. 3% is a good setting for Crypto.
A maximum of two lines are displayed for each zone type.
Session Open Candle MarkerThe "Session Open Candle Marker" is a Pine Script indicator designed for forex and futures traders using Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and RP Profits-inspired strategies. It marks the 15-minute opening range candles for the Asia, London, and NY sessions, where institutional "big players" often gather liquidity. Each session’s range is drawn as a rectangle with a customizable midpoint line, ideal for spotting breakouts, retests, and liquidity sweeps.
Features
Session Open Ranges: Plots rectangles for the 15m open candles of Asia (03:00 EEST), London (10:00 EEST), and NY (15:00 EEST), corresponding to 01:00, 08:00, and 13:00 GMT+1.
Customizable Visualization:
Toggle each session (Asia, London, NY) on/off.
Independent high/low label toggles for each session.
Adjustable rectangle color, midpoint line color, style (solid/dashed/dotted), and width.
Customizable rectangle duration (default: 96 bars, ~24 hours on 15m).
Timezone Flexibility: Default times are set for EEST (UTC+3). Adjust session inputs for your chart’s timezone (e.g., GMT+1: Asia 01:00, London 08:00, NY 13:00; UTC: Asia 00:00, London 07:00, NY 12:00).
Clean Design: Rectangles and labels update dynamically, with proper cleanup to avoid clutter.
Usage:
Setup: Add to a 15m chart (e.g., EURUSD, ES1!). Check your chart’s timezone (Chart Settings > Symbol > Timezone) and adjust session times if needed.
Settings:
Toggle sessions and labels to focus on desired ranges (e.g., London and NY for high volatility).
Customize colors, midpoint line style/width, and rectangle duration.
Trading:
Breakouts/Retests: Trade breakouts above/below the rectangle high/low, with retests back to the range or midpoint (aligned with RP Profits scalping).
Liquidity Sweeps: Watch for price sweeping session highs/lows, reversing for entries (SMC concept).
High Time Frame FVG [TakingProphets]HTF FVG
The HTF FVG indicator is built for traders who want a clean, multi-timeframe view of Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) without manually flipping charts. It automatically detects unmitigated FVGs across up to five higher timeframes and overlays them directly on your active chart, keeping your execution bias aligned with higher-timeframe liquidity.
✨ What it does
📌 Multi-timeframe mapping – Detects and plots bullish/bearish FVGs across up to 5 custom HTFs + your current chart.
🧩 Auto-labeling – Each gap is tagged with its originating timeframe (e.g., M5, H1, D1).
🔄 Live updates – FVGs extend forward in time and are automatically removed once mitigated based on your plan.
🟢 Inverse FVGs (optional) – Highlight “inverse gaps” for traders who utilize them in reversal models.
🎯 Consequent Encroachment lines – Enable mid-gap CE levels for precision-based trade management.
⚡ Optimized performance – Built with array management, capped lookback periods, and per-timeframe limits for smooth charting.
🛠️ How it works
Fair Value Gaps are detected using a 3-candle structure:
Bullish FVG → the high of two candles ago is below the low of the prior candle.
Bearish FVG → the low of two candles ago is above the high of the prior candle.
For each selected timeframe:
When an FVG forms, a box is drawn from the gap boundaries and extended forward by a configurable number of bars.
If price closes into the gap on its originating timeframe, the box is automatically removed.
If Consequent Encroachment is enabled, a mid-gap line is plotted for refined targeting.
When multiple gaps exist per side, only the closest unmitigated one remains highlighted for clarity.
⚙️ Inputs & customization
Detection Sensitivity → High / Medium / Low
Lookback Period → 1 Day / 1 Week / 1 Month / Max
Extend Gaps → Add extra forward bars beyond the originating candle.
Show Consequent Encroachment → Toggle CE midlines on/off.
Show Inverse FVGs → Mark inverted gaps for advanced models.
Custom HTFs → Choose up to 5 timeframes to map onto your execution chart.
Appearance Settings → Configure colors, transparency, label size, and gap boundary styles.
📈 Practical tips
Use smaller execution timeframes (e.g., 1m–5m) and overlay multiple HTFs (e.g., M15, H1, H4, D1).
Watch for stacked HTF FVGs in the same price zone — these often create higher-probability draw areas.
Pair CE midlines with session timing, PD arrays, and liquidity concepts to refine entries.
Limit your lookback period and max stored FVGs for better performance during volatile sessions.
📌 Notes
This tool does not generate buy/sell signals. It’s a context mapping utility to help align your trading plan with higher-timeframe structure.
Weekend gaps are automatically filtered out to reduce false positives.

TFPS - TradFi Pressure ScoreThe Data-Driven Answer to a New Market Reality.
This indicator quantifies the pressure exerted by Wall Street on the crypto market across four critical dimensions: Risk Appetite, Fear, Liquidity Flows, and the Opportunity Cost of Capital. Our research has found that the correlation between this 4-dimensional pressure vector and crypto price action reaches peak values of 0.87. This is your decisive macro edge, delivered in real-time.
The Irreversible Transformation
A fundamental analysis of the last five years of market data proves an irreversible transformation: The crypto market has matured into a high-beta risk asset, its fate now inextricably linked to Traditional Finance (TradFi).
The empirical data is clear:
Bitcoin increasingly behaves like a leveraged version of the S&P 500.
The correlation to major stock indices is statistically significant and persistent.
The "digital gold" narrative is refuted by the data; the correlation to gold is virtually non-existent.
This means standard technical indicators are no longer sufficient. Tools like RSI or MACD are blind to the powerful, external macro context that now dominates price action. They see the effect, but not the cause.
The Solution: A 4-Dimensional Macro-Lens
The TradFi Pressure Score (TFPS) is the answer. It is an institutional-grade dashboard that aggregates the four most dominant external forces into a single, actionable score:
S&P 500 (SPY): The Pulse of Risk Appetite. A rising S&P signals a "risk-on" environment, fueling capital flows into crypto.
VIX: The Market's Fear Gauge. A rising VIX signals a "risk-off" flight to safety, draining liquidity from crypto.
DXY (US-Dollar Index): The Anchor of Global Liquidity. A strong Dollar (rising DXY) tightens financial conditions, creating powerful headwinds for risk assets like Bitcoin.
US 10Y Yield: The Opportunity Cost of Capital. Rising yields make risk-free assets more attractive, pulling capital away from non-yielding assets like crypto.
What makes the TFPS truly unique?
1. Dynamic Weighting (The Secret Weapon):
Which macro factor matters most right now? Is it a surging Dollar or a collapsing stock market? The TFPS answers this automatically. It continuously analyzes the correlation of all four components to your chosen asset (e.g., Bitcoin) and adjusts their influence in real-time. The dashboard shows you the exact live weights, ensuring you are always focused on the factor that is currently driving the market.
2. Adaptive Engine:
The forces driving a 15-minute chart are different from those driving a daily chart. The TFPS engine automatically recalibrates its internal lookback periods to your chosen timeframe. This ensures the score is always optimally relevant, whether you are a day trader or a swing trader.
3. Designed for Actionable Insights
The Pressure Line: The indicator's core output. Is its value > 0 (tailwind) or < 0 (headwind)? This provides an instant, unambiguous read on the macro environment for your trade.
The Z-Score (The Contrarian Signal): The background "Stress Cloud" and the discrete dots provide early warnings of extreme macro greed or fear. Readings above +2 or below -2 have historically pinpointed moments of market exhaustion that often precede major trend reversals.
Lead/Lag Status: Gain a critical edge by knowing who is in the driver's seat. The dashboard tells you if TradFi is leading the price action or if crypto is moving independently, allowing you to validate your trade thesis against the dominant market force.
This is a public indicator with protected source code
Access is now available for traders who understand the new market reality at the intersection of crypto and traditional finance.
You are among the first to leverage what is a new standard for macro analysis in crypto trading. Your feedback is highly valued as I continue to refine this tool.

Uptrick: Reversal Matrix +Overview
The Uptrick: Reversal Matrix + is designed as a comprehensive tool that organizes market information in a visually intuitive way. It presents a variety of signals and data points on the chart, aiming to provide clarity about potential reversals, directional momentum, and the broader context surrounding price behavior. By consolidating numerous indicators and statistics into a single interface, it serves as a versatile companion for different trading styles and time horizons.
Purpose
This indicator offers a multifunctional approach to market analysis. It seeks to help users gain a more holistic view of current conditions rather than focusing on isolated data points. Its primary goal is to guide traders toward recognizing evolving market structures, shifts in buying or selling pressure, and periods where price movement may exhibit stronger or weaker momentum. Because it is designed for adaptive use, it can cater to fast, intraday styles or more deliberate, long-term strategies, depending on how the user configures it.
Originality and Uniqueness
The Reversal Matrix + stands out by merging various categories of market data into cohesive visuals and tables. While many indicators offer singular signals or straightforward buy/sell prompts, this script integrates numerous underlying components and displays them in organized panels. Each piece of data, from volume characteristics to volatility states, is contextualized. This multi-layered approach helps traders see more than just a single dimension of the market. Whether one is exploring short-term breakouts, potential traps, or broader market regimes, the tool accommodates multiple perspectives within a single framework.
Inputs
1. Sensitivity.
This setting allows you to choose different levels based on how frequently you would like signals to appear. Selecting a higher sensitivity may capture faster changes but can produce a greater number of signals. More moderate or smoother settings can be preferable for users looking for less frequent but potentially clearer indications of shifts.
2. Trading Style.
This option adapts the tool to match conservative, normal, or more aggressive preferences. When choosing a conservative style, the script attempts to filter out smaller fluctuations, while the aggressive style might highlight more potential turning points as they emerge.
3. Potential Signal Threshold Difference
This setting adjusts the sensitivity of potential reversal signals. A lower value means the script will highlight only the most distinct setups, filtering out weaker or borderline scenarios. A higher value makes the tool more receptive to subtle shifts, potentially flagging more frequent signals. It allows users to fine-tune how responsive the script is to early momentum changes, depending on their preferred level of signal strictness.
4. Table Positions (Optional).
There are inputs that let you decide the on-chart position of the tables. You can enable or disable these tables and choose where they appear (for instance, top-right or bottom-left), depending on how you want the data displayed alongside price bars.
Table and Its Position
When enabled, a large table, known as the Full Metrics Table, offers extensive details about various technical and behavioral metrics. You can place it anywhere on your chart layout for convenience. It is designed to give you a granular view of current conditions without overwhelming the main price candles themselves.
Another, smaller panel known as the Final Verdict Table can also be displayed at a user-chosen position. This panel simplifies the script’s internal assessments into broader verdicts or summaries, allowing for a quick read on the market’s status.
Features
Multi-Faceted Signal and Alert System.
The indicator continuously scans market activity, highlighting events such as sudden rises or drops, changes in volatility, and shifts in momentum. Users can configure an array of alerts that instantly notify them of these occurrences, reducing the need to constantly monitor the chart.
Candle Overlays and Fading Effects .
In addition to standard chart candles, the script offers visual cues by shading or coloring candles differently when it detects certain signals. The fading mechanism gradually diminishes the bar color of older signals so that recent ones are more noticeable. This helps keep the focus on current opportunities while retaining a historical context.
Contextual Market Synopsis .
Each time a candle closes, the tool updates a variety of behind-the-scenes checks. This process helps the user see whether the market remains within the same general state (trending, ranging, or reversing) or is shifting rapidly. It also adds clarity when conditions may be transitioning between bullish and bearish inclinations.
Adaptable Settings for Different Styles .
Since traders differ in their tolerance for rapid fluctuations, the script’s adjustable Sensitivity and Trading Style inputs provide a way to fine-tune how it reacts. Someone trading on shorter timeframes can opt for more frequent signals that capture subtle changes, whereas a position trader might lean toward smoother outputs that highlight only stronger, more sustained conditions.
Extended Data Analysis .
Beyond immediate buy/sell possibilities, the Reversal Matrix+ delivers comprehensive data to help users confirm or question a market stance. A wide range of volume, volatility, and price action elements are factored in, giving each signal additional context rather than a simple green or red highlight.
Final Verdict Summaries .
When the second table is enabled, it condenses key aspects of the indicator’s internal logic into straightforward statements. Rather than navigating multiple data rows, you can check if the market appears more stable or volatile, potentially bullish or bearish, and whether a reversal probability is deemed high or low.
Large-Scale Alert Coverage .
More than fifty specialized alerts focus on distinct aspects, enabling users to track everything from volume anomalies to momentum acceleration.
Specialized Color Schemes .
To assist in quickly spotting bullish or bearish tendencies, candles and background components may be tinted in line with the latest recognized conditions. This visual reinforcement makes it easier to decide if ongoing signals confirm a previous stance or suggest a change.
Buy/Sell Signals
A core function of the script is to present buy and sell indications on the chart, identifying moments when price momentum may be shifting in a meaningful way. These signals come in two varieties: potential reversals and confirmed reversals. Potential reversals appear sooner, providing an early heads-up that market behavior could be turning. Confirmed reversals require a stronger confluence of underlying conditions, aiming to reduce the likelihood of false starts.
Internally, the script examines multiple facets—such as momentum flow, changes in volatility, and volume characteristics—to determine when a potential transition is noteworthy enough to highlight as a signal. As soon as those conditions line up, the script applies distinct markers or shapes to the candles, making it easy to spot these pivotal points on the chart. In addition, each new signal is emphasized through color-based candle shading, while older signals gradually fade to keep attention on the most relevant opportunities.
Although these signals can function as standalone cues, many traders pair them with the script’s other outputs—such as the Full Metrics Table, the Final Verdict Table, and specialized alerts—to form a more complete perspective. For instance, a potential buy signal spotted in real time may gain extra weight if certain metrics in the table reflect a constructive market backdrop. Meanwhile, the final verdict can offer a succinct confirmation or contradiction to what the buy or sell signal suggests. By combining these elements, traders can pursue strategies that balance both immediacy and context, tailoring their entries and exits to their own tolerance for risk and time horizon.
These features collectively allow users to explore the market from multiple angles. Whether one seeks a deeper technical dive or simpler guidance, the indicator’s layered design aims to cater to a broad spectrum of trading approaches.
Full Metrics Table
A key element of Uptrick: Reversal Matrix+ is the extensive set of data displayed within the Full Metrics Table. Below is an expanded explanation of the sixty-four core metrics. Each is accompanied by a brief statement about its practical significance.

Final Verdict Table
The secondary table, known as the Final Verdict Table, condenses the tool’s main findings into concise statements. It watches for patterns such as alignment of trends, clarity of momentum, perceived volatility conditions, and possible reversals. Depending on what the script observes, the table might suggest a bullish confluence, a bearish confluence, an unstable market environment, or a more neutral outlook. This feature is particularly helpful for traders who prefer quick insights over a detailed breakdown of every metric.
Metrics Included in the Final Verdict Table
Directional Momentum Flow
This entry shows how the indicator interprets short-term momentum for the current market. If momentum appears to be gaining strength in one direction, it may indicate that buyers or sellers have a slight edge, whereas a flat reading might suggest indecision.
Volatility Regime Assessment
This metric provides insight into whether the market is relatively calm, moderate, or experiencing elevated volatility. A calmer volatility state might favor steadier strategies, while higher volatility could signal the potential for wider price swings.
Trend Continuity Confidence
This section reflects how confident the tool is in the market’s current trend. It helps traders see whether recent action supports a persistent uptrend, downtrend, or if there is ambiguity that undermines the idea of a consistent directional movement.
Reversal Probability Index
Here, the table evaluates whether conditions are conducive to a market turnaround. If the script observes signs of exhaustion or conflict in momentum, it may suggest an increased possibility of the price switching direction.
Manipulation Detector
This component looks for signals that the market may be attempting to trap buyers or sellers. For instance, a sudden shift might hint at a bull or bear trap scenario. This readout serves to caution against seemingly obvious moves that could quickly reverse.
Final Verdict
Below these metrics, the table presents a single overall statement that integrates the above factors. This final verdict can range from identifying a bullish or bearish confluence to calling the market unstable or neutral if conditions are inconclusive. It is intended to be a quick, high-level summary of the script’s general stance on the market.
Any Other Features
Users can access more than fifty specialized alerts that target different market conditions, from potential trap scenarios to shifts in volatility regimes. These alerts can be integrated into various platforms, ensuring that traders receive immediate notifications when critical triggers occur. The color-coded candle approach, combined with fading effects, helps maintain chart readability. Over time, this setup encourages a balance between a detailed backdrop of market data and a clear depiction of fresh signals.
Why More than One Indicator
Integrating multiple components under one roof offers several advantages. It reduces the chance of relying on a single dimension, such as price action alone, which can sometimes mislead or generate frequent false signals. By combining various measures of volatility, volume, and price structure, the script can reveal confluences or disagreements among different elements. This multi-faceted approach can improve clarity, making it easier to decide when conditions line up favorably or when they conflict, thereby prompting caution.

Volume Profile [ActiveQuants]The Volume Profile indicator visualizes the distribution of trading volume across price levels over a user-defined historical period. It identifies key liquidity zones, including the Point of Control (POC) (price level with the highest volume) and the Value Area (price range containing a specified percentage of total volume). This tool is ideal for traders analyzing support/resistance levels, market sentiment , and potential price reversals .
█ CORE METHODOLOGY
Vertical Price Rows: Divides the price range of the selected lookback period into equal-height rows.
Volume Aggregation: Accumulates bullish/bearish or total volume within each price row.
POC: The row with the highest total volume.
Value Area: Expands from the POC until cumulative volume meets the user-defined threshold (e.g., 70%).
Dynamic Visualization: Rows are plotted as horizontal boxes with widths proportional to their volume.
█ KEY FEATURES
- Customizable Lookback & Resolution
Adjust the historical period ( Lookback ) and granularity ( Number of Rows ) for precise analysis.
- Configurable Profile Width & Horizontal Offset
Control the relative horizontal length of the profile rows, and set the distance from the current bar to the POC row’s anchor.
Important: Do not set the horizontal offset too high. Indicators cannot be plotted more than 500 bars into the future.
- Value Area & POC Highlighting
Set the percentage of total volume required to form the Value Area , ensuring that key volume levels are clearly identified.
Value Area rows are colored distinctly, while the POC is marked with a bold line.
- Flexible Display Options
Show bullish/bearish volume splits or total volume.
Place the profile on the right or left of the chart.
- Gradient Coloring
Rows fade in color intensity based on their relative volume strength .
- Real-Time Adjustments
Modify horizontal offset, profile width, and appearance without reloading.

█ IMPORTANT NOTES
⚠ Lookback Period: Shorter lookbacks prioritize recent activity but may omit critical levels.
⚠ Horizontal Offset Limitation: Avoid excessively high offsets (e.g., close to ±300). TradingView restricts plotting indicators more than 500 bars into the future, which may truncate or hide the profile.
⚠ Risk Management: While the indicator highlights areas of concentrated volume, always use it in combination with other technical analysis tools and proper risk management techniques.
█ RISK DISCLAIMER
Trading involves substantial risk. The Volume Profile highlights historical liquidity but does not predict future price movements. Always use stop-loss orders and confirm signals with additional analysis. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
