Bollinger + RSI, Double Strategy Long-Only (by ChartArt) v1.2This strategy uses the RSI indicator together with the Bollinger Bands to go long when the price is below the lower Bollinger Band (and to close the long trade when this value is above the upper Bollinger band).
This simple strategy only places a long, when both the RSI and the Bollinger Bands indicators are at the same time in a oversold condition.
In this new version 1.2 the strategy was simplified even more than before by going long-only, which made the strategy more successful in backtesting than the previous version (that older version also opened short trades).
This strategy does not repaint and was updated to PineScript version 3.
All trading involves high risk; past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.

Pairs Volume FXCM mini accountScript shows the volume of the currency pairs in the FXCM mini account. I set it daily or weekly to see which pair is picking up in activity. My style of currency trading is short holds on the highest volatility. This helps me determine which pairs have the highest volume (or tick activity since there is no true exchange for currency). I use this in conjunction with the other script I wrote, "Pairs Range" which shows which pairs have the highest daily range. This script has a built in 5-sma on each pair. High daily range and high volume is volatility and liquidity. **** This does not include currencies in CHF ****
Golden Cross, SMA 200 Moving Average Strategy (by ChartArt)This famous moving average strategy is very easy to follow to decide when to buy (go long) and when to take profit.
The strategy goes long when the faster SMA 50 (the simple moving average of the last 50 bars) crosses above the slower SMA 200. Orders are closed when the SMA 50 crosses below the SMA 200. This simple strategy does not have any other stop loss or take profit money management logic. The strategy does not short and goes long only!
Here is an article explaining the "golden cross" strategy in more detail:
www.stockopedia.com
On the S&P 500 index (symbol "SPX") this strategy worked on the daily chart 81% since price data is available since 1982. And on the DOW Jones Industrial Average (symbol "DOWI") this strategy worked on the daily chart 55% since price data is available since 1916. The low number of trades is in both cases not statistically significant though.

No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.
Fractal Breakout Strategy (by ChartArt)This long only strategy determines the price of the last fractal top and enters a trade when the price breaks above the last fractal top. The strategy also calculates the average price of the last fractal tops to get the trend direction. The strategy exits the long trade, when the average of the fractal tops is falling (when the trend is lower highs as measured by fractals). And the user can manually set a time delay of this exit condition. The default setting is a long strategy exit always 3 bars after the long entry condition appeared.
In addition as gimmicks the fractals tops can be highlighted (the default is blue) and a line can be drawn based on the fractal tops.This fractal top line is colored by the fractal top average trend in combination with the fractal breakout condition.
This strategy works better on higher time-frames (weekly and monthly), but it also works on the daily and some other time-frames. This strategy does not repaint, no repainting.
P.S. I thank Tradingview user barracuda who helped me with the time based exit condition code. And user RicardoSantos for coding the definition of the fractal top, which he uses in his " Fractals" scripts.

Daily Close Comparison Strategy (by ChartArt via sirolf2009)Comparing daily close prices as a strategy.
This strategy is equal to the very popular "ANN Strategy" coded by sirolf2009(1) which calculates the percentage difference of the daily close price, but this bar-bone version works completely without his Artificial Neural Network (ANN) part.
Main difference besides stripping out the ANN is that my version uses close prices instead of OHLC4 prices, because they perform better in backtesting. And the default threshold is set to 0 to keep it simple instead of 0.0014 with a larger step value of 0.001 instead of 0.0001. Just like the ANN strategy this strategy goes long if the close of the current day is larger than the close price of the last day. If the inverse logic is true, the strategy goes short (last close larger current close). (2)
This basic strategy does not have any stop loss or take profit money management logic. And I repeat, the credit for the fundamental code idea goes to sirolf2009.
(2) Because the multi-time-frame close of the current day is future data, meaning not available in live-trading (also described as repainting), is the reason why this strategy and the original "ANN Strategy" coded by sirolf2009 perform so excellent in backtesting.

MACD + Stochastic, Double Strategy (by ChartArt)This strategy combines the classic stochastic strategy to buy when the stochastic is oversold with a classic MACD strategy to buy when the MACD histogram value goes above the zero line. Only difference to the classic stochastic is a default setting of 71 for overbought (classic setting 80) and 29 for oversold (classic setting 20).
Therefore this strategy goes long if the MACD histogram goes above zero and the stochastic indicator detects a oversold condition (value below 29). If the inverse logic is true, the strategy goes short (stochastic overbought condition with a value above 71 and the MACD histogram falling below the zero line value).
Please be aware that this pure double strategy using simply two classic indicators does not have any stop loss or take profit money management logic.

Bollinger + RSI, Double Strategy (by ChartArt) v1.1This strategy uses the RSI indicator together with the Bollinger Bands to sell when the price is above the upper Bollinger Band (and to buy when this value is below the lower band). This simple strategy only triggers when both the RSI and the Bollinger Band indicators are at the same time in a overbought or oversold condition.
UPDATE
In this updated version 1.1 the strategy was both simplified for the user (less inputs) and made more successful in backtesting by now using a 200 period for the SMA which is the basis for the Bollinger Band. I also reduced the number of color alerts to show fewer, but more relevant trading opportunities.
And just like the first version this strategy does not use close prices from higher-time frame and should not repaint after the current candle has closed. It might repaint like every Tradingview indicator while the current candle hasn't closed.

Bollinger + RSI, Double Strategy (by ChartArt)Bollinger Bands + RSI, Double Strategy
This strategy uses a slower RSI with period 16 to sell when the RSI increases over the value of 55 (or to buy when the value falls below 45), with the classic Bollinger Bands strategy to sell when the price is above the upper Bollinger Band and falls below it (and to buy when the price is below the lower band and rises above it). This strategy only triggers when both the RSI and the Bollinger Bands indicators are at the same time in the described overbought or oversold condition. In addition there are color alerts which can be deactivated.
This basic strategy is based upon the "RSI Strategy" and "Bollinger Bands Strategy" which were created by Tradingview and uses no money management like a trailing stop loss and no scalping methods. Every win/loss trade is simply counted from the last overbought/oversold condition to the next one.
This strategy does not use close prices from higher-time frame and should not repaint after the current candle has closed. It might repaint like every Tradingview indicator while the current candle hasn't closed.

Moving Average Consecutive Up/Down Strategy (by ChartArt)This simple strategy goes long (or short) if there are several consecutive increasing (or decreasing) moving average values in a row in the same direction. The bars can be colored using the raw moving average trend. And the background can be colored using the consecutive moving average trend setting. In addition a experimental line of the moving average change can be drawn.
The strategy is based upon the "Consecutive Up/Down Strategy" which was created by Tradingview.

MACD + SMA 200 Strategy (by ChartArt)Here is a combination of the classic MACD (moving average convergence divergence indicator) with the classic slow moving average SMA with period 200 together as a strategy.
This strategy goes long if the MACD histogram and the MACD momentum are both above zero and the fast MACD moving average is above the slow MACD moving average. As additional long filter the recent price has to be above the SMA 200. If the inverse logic is true, the strategy goes short. For the worst case there is a max intraday equity loss of 50% filter.

SWR Label SystemSWR Label System -- Sweep · Wait · Reclaim
The SWR Label System is a visual trading companion built to highlight liquidity events and institutional reactions in real time.
It automatically detects:
• 🌀 Sweep – liquidity grabs beyond recent highs or lows
• 🔁 Reclaim – price closing back across the swept level
• 🔊 Volume Spike – significant surges beyond average activity
When all three align, the script plots 🚀 SWR Long or 🔻 SWR Short labels with default 2:1 risk-to-reward targets for rapid evaluation.
Each label includes Entry, Take Profit, and Stop Loss values (Entry ± 2% / 1% by default).
These defaults are for illustration only -- it’s best to adapt TP / SL levels to recent structure, highs, and lows for precision risk management.
Optional toggles allow you to show or hide sweep, reclaim, and volume markers individually, plus a cooldown feature to reduce signal clutter.
⚠️ Educational use only -- not financial advice. Always confirm structure, volume, and context before trading live funds.
Smooth Cloud Trend Filter (20/50 EMA)The Smooth Cloud indicator visualizes market trend direction using two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs): a Fast EMA (20-period) and a Slow EMA (50-period).
The area between these averages forms a shaded cloud that changes color according to the trend bias:
🟢 Green Cloud: Fast EMA is above the Slow EMA → Bullish trend.
🔴 Red Cloud: Fast EMA is below the Slow EMA → Bearish trend.
On this chart, the cloud remains green for most of the period, reflecting a strong and persistent uptrend.
During minor pullbacks, the transitions stay smooth, showing that the trend filter reacts steadily without excessive noise.
Price action consistently holds above the cloud from late September through early October, indicating sustained buyer control and bullish momentum.
This view focuses solely on the trend structure provided by the Smooth Cloud.
While other modules of the full system (such as the RSI Liquidity Spectrum and Zig Zag++ Volume Profile) add momentum and liquidity context, the Smooth Cloud alone highlights clear directional bias and trend strength.
When the price trades above a green cloud, traders often look for long opportunities on pullbacks or RSI confirmations.
A red cloud flip would signal a possible trend reversal or weakening momentum, suggesting short setups instead.
The thickness of the cloud also offers visual insight — thicker clouds indicate stronger trend momentum, while thinner ones suggest consolidation or indecision.

ICT Suspension BlocksICT Suspension Block (SB) Indicator
The ICT Suspension Block (SB) is a three-candle price action pattern that often act as support or resistance zones. A Suspension Block is a three-candle pattern showing a brief pause in price efficiency before continuation. These zones frequently serve as areas where price may later return, offering traders potential trading opportunities.
Pattern Definition
A Suspension Block forms when three consecutive candles move in the same direction but leave behind a specific body-to-body imbalance. (a gap between the bodies of consecutive candles).
Bullish Suspension Block (+SB):
All three candles are bullish (close > open).
Candle 1 close < Candle 2 open.
Candle 2 close < Candle 3 open.
Zone = from Candle 1 close to Candle 3 open.
Bearish Suspension Block (-SB):
All three candles are bearish (close < open).
Candle 1 close > Candle 2 open.
Candle 2 close > Candle 3 open.
Zone = from Candle 1 close to Candle 3 open.
These zones mark areas where price was temporarily imbalanced. Price often “respects” these levels later, either bouncing from them or breaking through them, which can provide valuable trade context.
Application
Suspension Blocks are used to mark areas where price may later react:
A Bullish SB can act as potential support.
A Bearish SB can act as potential resistance.
The significance of a block depends on market context. Blocks formed during strong, impulsive moves tend to be more meaningful than those in consolidation.
How the Indicator Works
Identifies bullish and bearish suspension blocks using body gap imbalances.
Draws colored zones (green = bullish, red = bearish) directly on the chart.
Extends zones forward until they are inversed by price action.
Once inversed, zones switch to a neutral color, allowing traders to annotate/extend them manually if desired.
Includes Consequent Encroachment (CE) lines (the 50% equilibrium of the block), which many traders use as reaction levels.
Features
Customizable colors for bullish, bearish, and inversed zones
Extend blocks indefinitely forward or limit them to a set number of bars
Adjustable maximum number of displayed blocks for performance control
Consequent Encroachment (CE) (Middle Point, 50%, Equilibrium) line feature
Configurable CE line style, color, and width
How to Use It
Trend Following: Blocks forming in the direction of trend can act as continuation zones.
Reversals: Opposite-direction blocks may signal exhaustion and potential turning points.
Liquidity Levels: CE lines (50% of block) often serve as reaction levels for entries, partials, or stop placement.
Context is Key: Suspension Blocks should not be used in isolation. Combine them with market structure, liquidity pools, or other confluence factors for best results.
Notes
This indicator is intended for technical analysis and research.
It should always be combined with proper risk management and a complete trading plan.
Past market behavior does not guarantee future results.
GEX Options Flow Pro 100% free
INTRODUCTION
This script is designed to visualize advanced options-derived metrics and levels on TradingView charts, including Gamma Exposure (GEX) walls, gamma flip points, vanna levels, delta-neutral prices (DEX), max pain, implied moves, and more. It overlays dynamic lines, labels, boxes, and an info table to highlight potential support, resistance, volatility regimes, and flow dynamics based on options data.
These visualizations aim to help users understand how options market structure might influence price action, such as areas of potential stability (positive GEX) or volatility (negative GEX). All data is user-provided via pasted strings, as Pine Script cannot fetch external options data directly due to platform limitations (detailed below).
The script is open-source under TradingView's terms, allowing study, modification, and improvement. It draws inspiration from standard options Greeks and exposure metrics (e.g., gamma, vanna, charm) discussed in financial literature like Black-Scholes models and dealer positioning analyses. No external code is copied; all logic is original or based on mathematical formulas.

How the Options Levels Are Calculated
Levels are not computed in Pine Script—they rely on pre-calculated values from external tools (e.g., Python scripts using libraries like yfinance for options chains). Here's how they're typically derived externally before pasting into the script:
Fetching Options Data: Retrieve options chain for a ticker: strikes, open interest (OI), volume, implied volatility (IV), expirations (e.g., shortest: 0-7 DTE, short: 7-14 DTE, medium: ~30 DTE, long: ~90 DTE). Get current price and 5-day history for context.
Gamma Walls (Put/Call Walls): Compute gamma for each option using Black-Scholes: gamma = N'(d1) / (S * σ * √T) where S = spot price, K = strike, T = time to expiration (years), σ = IV, N'(d1) = normal PDF. Aggregate GEX at strikes: GEX = sign * gamma * OI * 100 * S^2 * 0.01 (per 1% move, with sign based on dealer positioning: typically short calls/puts = negative GEX). Put Wall: Highest absolute GEX put strike below S (support via dealer buying on dips). Call Wall: Highest absolute GEX call strike above S (resistance via dealer selling on rallies). Secondary/Tertiary: Next highest levels. Historical walls track tier-1 levels over 5 days.
Gamma Flip: Net GEX profile across prices: Sum GEX for all options at hypothetical spots. Flip point: Interpolated price where net GEX changes sign (stable above, volatile below).
Vanna Levels: Vanna = -N'(d1) * d2 / σ. Weighted by OI; highest positive/negative strikes.
DEX (Delta-Neutral Price): Net dealer delta: Sum (delta * OI * 100 * sign), with delta from Black-Scholes. DEX: Price where net delta = 0 (interpolated).
Max Pain: Strike minimizing total intrinsic value for all options holders.
Skew: 25-delta skew: IV difference between 25-delta put and call (interpolated).
Net GEX/Delta: Total signed GEX/delta at current S.
Implied Move: ATM IV * √(DTE/365) for 1σ range.
C/P Ratio: (Call OI + volume) / (Put OI + volume).
Smart Stop Loss: Below lowest support (e.g., Put Wall, gamma flip), buffered by IV * √(DTE/30).
Other Metrics: IV: ATM average. 5-day metrics: Avg volume, high/low.
External tools handle dealer assumptions (e.g., short calls/puts) and scaling (per % move).
Effect as Support and Resistance in Technical Trading
Options levels reflect dealer hedging dynamics:
Put Wall (Gamma Support): High put GEX creates buying pressure on dips (dealers hedge short puts by buying stock). Use for long entries, bounces, or stops below.
Call Wall (Gamma Resistance): High call GEX leads to selling on rallies. Good for trims, shorts, or reversals.
Gamma Flip: Pivot for volatility—above: dampened moves (positive GEX, mean reversion); below: amplified trends (negative GEX, momentum).
Vanna Levels: Sensitivity to IV changes; crosses may signal vol shifts.
DEX: Dealer delta neutral—bullish if price below with positive delta.
Max Pain: Price magnet minimizing option payouts.
Implied Move/Confidence Bands: Expected ranges (1σ/2σ/3σ); breakouts suggest extremes.
Liquidity Zones: Wall ranges as price magnets.
Smart Stop Loss: Protective level below supports, IV-adjusted.
C/P Ratio & Skew: Sentiment (high C/P = bullish; high skew = put demand).
Net GEX: Positive = low vol strategies (e.g., condors); negative = momentum trades.
Combine with TA (e.g., volume, trends). High activity strengthens effects; alerts on crosses/proximities for awareness.
Limitations of the TradingView Platform for Data Pulling
Pine Script is sandboxed:
No API calls or internet access (can't fetch options data directly).
Limited to chart/symbol data; no real-time chains.
Inputs static per load; manual updates needed.
Caching not persistent across sessions.
This ensures lightweight scripts but requires external data sourcing.
Creative Solution for On-Demand Data Pulling
Users can use external tools (e.g., Python scripts with yfinance) to fetch/compute data on demand. Generate a formatted string (ticker,timestamp|term1_data|term2_data|...), paste into inputs. Tools can process multiple tickers, cache for ~15-30 min, and output strings for quick portfolio scanning. Run locally or via custom setups for near-real-time updates without platform violations.
For convenience, a free bot is available on my website that accepts commands like !gex to generate both current data strings (for all expiration terms) and historical walls data on demand. This allows users to easily obtain fresh or cached data (refreshed every ~30 min) for pasting into the indicator—ideal for scanning portfolios without manual coding.
Script Functionality Breakdown
Inputs: Data strings (current/historical); term selector (Shortest/Short/Medium/Long); toggles (historical walls, GEX profile, secondaries, vanna, table, max pain, DEX, stop loss, implied move, liquidity, bands); colors/styles.
Parsing: Extracts term-specific data; validates ticker match; gets timestamp for freshness.
Drawing: Dynamic lines/labels (width/color by GEX strength); boxes (moves, zones, bands); clears on updates.
Info Table: Dashboard with status (freshness emoji), Greeks (GEX/delta with emojis), vol (IV/skew), levels (distances), flow (C/P, vol vs 5D).
Historical Walls: Displays past tier-1 walls on daily+ timeframes.
Alerts: 20+ conditions (e.g., near/cross walls, GEX sign change, high IV).
Performance: Efficient for real-time; smart label positioning.
Release Notes
Initial release: Full features including multi-term support, enhanced table with emojis/sentiment, dynamic visuals, smart stop loss.
Data String Format: TICKER,TIMESTAMP|TERM1_DATA|TERM2_DATA|TERM3_DATA|TERM4_DATA Where each TERM_DATA = val0,val1,...,val30 (31 floats: current_price, prev_close, call_wall_1, call_wall_1_gex, ..., low_5d). Historical: TICKER|TERM1_HIST|... where TERM_HIST = date:cw,pw;date:cw,pw;...

High Time Frame (HTF) Swing PointsIdentify and display swing highs and lows across multiple higher timeframes on a chart, overlaying horizontal lines and customizable labels at these swing points.
Timeframes
Five user-defined higher timeframes (default settings: 5-minute, 15-minute, 1-hour, 4-hour, and daily)
Manually show/hide individual timeframes
When chart’s timeframe is set higher than one of the five configured, the indicator will automatically hide it. This helps to prevent clutter when navigating between timeframes on the chart
Swing Levels
Configure the line color, opacity, width and weather it’s solid/dotted/dashed
Once swing levels are identified, the indicator will look for the chart candle where the line starts
When price crosses the swing level, the line will be terminated
Tags
Customize the tag text for each individual timeframe, using blank if a tag is not desired for that timeframe
A tag text color can be set for all tags or base it on the line color
Set tag text size based on: Auto, Tiny, Small, Normal, Large
Choose how far to the right of the line the tag text should appear, as an integer representing the size of a candle
Choose to clear the tag or leave it in place after price crosses a swing level
Use Cases
Visualize key swing points from higher timeframes to identify potential reversal or breakout zones
Identify possible low resistance liquidity run (LRLR) areas
Use swing points for stop placement or as targets or draws on liquidity
Quarterly Theory Cycles + Alerts (Weekly/Daily/90-Minute Cycles)Quarterly Theory Cycles (90m • Daily • Weekly)
Purpose
Built for Quarterly Theory. This indicator maps repeating quarters across three rhythms—90-minute, Daily, and Weekly (18:00 NY → 18:00 NY)—so you can track where price is within the current quarter and how it reacts to the previous quarter’s high/low.
Quarter Structure
90-Minute Quarters
Labels:Q1 / Q2 / Q3 / Q4
Sessions: Asia, London, NY, PM (each split into four 90-minute quarters).
Daily Quarters
Labels: [D-Q1 / D-Q2 / D-Q3 / D-Q4
Windows (America/New_York):
D-Q1: 18:00–00:00
D-Q2: 00:00–06:00
D-Q3: 06:00–12:00
D-Q4: 12:00–18:00
Weekly Quarters
Labels: W-Q1 / W-Q2 / W-Q3 / W-Q4
Trading days defined 18:00 NY → 18:00 NY (DST-aware).
W-Q1 = Monday, W-Q2 = Tuesday, W-Q3 = Wednesday, W-Q4 = Thursday
Friday intentionally excluded (no W-Q5) to preserve theory behavior.
Use for higher-timeframe context and weekly narrative (e.g., expansion vs. distribution days).
What It Draws
Live, extending range boxes for the active quarter (H/L updates in real time).
Stored previous quarter’s high/low for each rhythm (90m, Daily, Weekly).
Alerts (Quarterly Theory-friendly )
Fires when price first breaks the previous quarter’s high/low:
90m: “Previous 90min cycle (…) high/low broken”
Daily: “Previous daily cycle (…) high/low broken”
Weekly: “Previous weekly cycle (…) high/low broken”
One alert per side per new quarter—clean signals for liquidity grabs or SSMTs.
Customization
Master Toggles: Show/hide Asia, London, NY, PM, Daily, Weekly blocks fast.
Independent Transparencies: Separate opacity sliders for 90m vs Daily vs Weekly.
Per-Quarter Controls: Toggle range, edit label (defaults already set to Q1 / D-Q1 / W-Q1 formats), and color.
Styling: Optional outlines and labels for minimal or annotated charts.
Time Zones: Use exchange time or a custom UTC offset for session windows. Weekly boundaries always use America/New_York at 18:00.
Notes
Designed for theory workflows: prior-quarter liquidity, session rotation, and narrative alignment, SSMTS.
Friday is excluded from Weekly quarters by design.
Indicator draws ranges and triggers alerts; it does not place trades.
Dynamic Volume Trace Profile [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
Dynamic Volume Trace Profile is a reimagined take on volume profile analysis. Instead of plotting a static horizontal histogram on the side of your chart, this indicator projects dynamic volume trace lines directly onto the price action. Each bin is color-graded according to its relative strength, creating a living “volume skeleton” of the market. The orange trace highlights the current Point of Control (POC)—the price level with maximum historical traded volume within the lookback window. On the right side, the tool builds a mini profile, showing absolute volume per bin alongside its percentage share, where the POC always represents 100% strength .
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Dynamic On-Chart Bins:
The range between highest high and lowest low is split into 25 bins. Each bin is drawn as a horizontal trace line across the lookback chart period.
Gradient Color Encoding:
Trace lines fade from transparent to teal depending on relative volume size. The more intense the teal, the stronger the historical traded activity at that level.
Automatic POC Highlight:
The bin with the highest aggregated volume is flagged with an orange line . This POC adapts bar-by-bar as volume distribution shifts.
Right-Side Volume Profile:
At the chart’s right edge, the script prints a box-style profile. Each bin shows:
• Total volume (absolute units).
• Percentage of max volume, in parentheses (POC bin = 100%).
This gives both raw and normalized context at a glance.
Adjustable Lookback Window:
The lookback defines how many bars feed the profile. Increase for stable HTF zones or decrease for responsive intraday distributions.
POC Toggle & Styling:
Optionally toggle POC highlighting on/off, adjust colors, and set line thickness for better integration with your chart theme.
⯁ HOW IT WORKS (UNDER THE HOOD)
Step Sizing:
over last 100 bars is divided by to calculate bin height.
Volume Aggregation:
For each bar in the , the script checks which bin the close falls into, then adds that bar’s volume to the bin’s counter.
Gradient Mapping:
Bin volume is normalized against the max volume across all bins. That value is mapped onto a gradient from transparent → teal.
POC Logic:
The bin with highest volume is colored orange both on the dynamic trace and in the right-side profile.
Right-Hand Profile:
Boxes are drawn for each bin proportional to volume / maxVolume × 50 units, with text labels showing both absolute volume and normalized %.
⯁ USAGE
Use the orange trace as the dominant “magnet” level—price often gravitates to the POC.
Watch for clusters of strong teal traces as areas of high acceptance; thin or faint zones mark low-liquidity gaps prone to fast moves.
On intraday charts, tighten lookback to reveal session-based distributions . For swing or position trading, expand lookback to surface more durable volume shelves.
Compare the right-side profile % to judge how “top-heavy” or “bottom-heavy” the current distribution is.
Use bright, intense color traces as context for confluence with structure, OBs, or liquidity hunts.
⯁ CONCLUSION
Dynamic Volume Trace Profile takes the traditional volume profile and fuses it into the body of price itself. Instead of a fixed sidebar, you see gradient traces layered directly on the chart, giving real-time context of where volume concentrated and where price may be drawn. With built-in POC highlighting, normalized % readouts, and an adaptive right-side profile, it offers both precision levels and market structure awareness in a cleaner, more intuitive form.
Volume Profile 3D (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Volume Profile 3D (Zeiierman) is a next-generation volume profile that renders market participation as a 3D-style profile directly on your chart. Instead of flat histograms, you get a depth-aware profile with parallax, gradient transparency, and bull/bear separation, so you can see where liquidity stacked up and how it shifted during the move.
Highlights:
3D visual effect with perspective and depth shading for clarity.
Bull/Bear separation to see whether up bars or down bars created the volume.
Flexible colors and gradients that highlight where the most significant trading activity took place.
This is a state-of-the-art volume profile — visually powerful, highly flexible, and unlike anything else available.
█ How It Works
⚪ Profile Construction
The price range (from highest to lowest) is divided into a number of levels (buckets). Each bar’s volume is added to the correct level, based on its average price. This builds a map of where trading volume was concentrated.
You can choose to:
Aggregate all volume at each level, or
Split bullish vs. bearish volume , slightly offset for clarity.
This creates a clear view of which price zones matter most to the market.
⚪ 3D Effect Creation
The unique part of this indicator is how the 3D projection is built. Each volume block’s width is scaled to its relative size, then tilted with a slope factor to create a depth effect.
maxVol = bins.bu.max() + bins.be.max()
width = math.max(1, math.floor(bucketVol / maxVol * ((bar_index - start) * mult)))
slope = -(step * dev) / ((bar_index - start) * (mult/2))
factor = math.pow(math.min(1.0, math.abs(slope) / step), .5)
width → determines how far the volume extends, based on relative strength.
slope → creates the angled projection for the 3D look.
factor → adjusts perspective to make deeper areas shrink naturally.
The result is a 3D-style volume profile where large areas pop forward and smaller areas fade back, giving you immediate visual context.
█ How to Use
⚪ Support & Resistance Zones (HVNs and Value Area)
Regions where a lot of volume traded tend to act like walls:
If price approaches a high-volume area from above, it may act as support.
From below, it may act as resistance.
Traders often enter or exit near these zones because they represent strong agreement among market participants.
⚪ POC Rejections & Mean Reversions
The Point of Control (POC) is the single price level with the highest volume in the profile.
When price returns to the POC and rejects it, that’s often a signal for reversal trades.
In ranging markets, price may bounce between edges of the Value Area and revert to POC.
⚪ Breakouts via Low-Volume Zones (LVNs)
Low volume areas (gaps in the profile) offer path of least resistance:
Price often moves quickly through these thin zones when momentum builds.
Use them to spot breakouts or continuation trades.
⚪ Directional Insight
Use the bull/bear separation to see whether buyers or sellers dominated at key levels.
█ Settings
Use Active Chart – Profile updates with visible candles.
Custom Period – Fixed number of bars.
Up/Down – Adjust tilt for the 3D angle.
Left/Right – Scale width of the profile.
Aggregated – Merge bull/bear volume.
Bull/Bear Shift – Separate bullish and bearish volume.
Buckets – Number of price levels.
Choose from templates or set custom colors.
POC Gradient option makes high volume bolder, low volume lighter.

ATR Regime Study [CHE] ATR Regime Study — ATR percentile regimes with clear bands, table and live label
Summary
This study classifies volatility into five regimes by converting ATR into a percentile rank over a rolling window, plotted on a standardized scale between zero and one hundred. Colored bands mark regime thresholds, while a compact table and an optional label report the current percentile and regime. The standardized scale makes symbols and timeframes easier to compare than raw ATR values. Implemented in Pine v6 as a separate pane (overlay set to false), it is a context tool to adapt tactics and risk handling to the prevailing volatility environment.
Motivation: Why this design?
Raw ATR varies with price scale and asset characteristics, which makes regime comparison inconsistent and leads to poor transfer of settings across symbols and timeframes. The core idea is to transform ATR into a percentile rank within a user-defined lookback, then map it into discrete regimes. This yields a stable, interpretable context signal that shifts slower than raw ATR while still responding to genuine volatility changes.
What’s different vs. standard approaches?
Reference baseline: Traditional ATR plots or ATR bands using fixed multipliers.
Architecture differences:
Percentile ranking of ATR within a rolling window.
Five discrete regimes with fixed thresholds at ninety, seventy, thirty, and ten.
Visual fills between thresholds plus a live table and a last-bar label.
Practical effect: You read a single normalized line between zero and one hundred with consistent thresholds. This improves cross-asset comparison and makes regime shifts obvious at a glance.
How it works (technical)
The script computes ATR over a configurable length, then converts that series to a percentile rank over a configurable number of bars. The percentile is naturally scaled and limited between zero and one hundred. That value is mapped to one of five regimes: above ninety (Extreme), between seventy and ninety (Elevated), between thirty and seventy (Normal), between ten and thirty (Calm), and below ten (Squeeze). Horizontal guide lines mark the thresholds, and fills shade the regions. A table is created once and updated on each bar to show regime definitions and highlight the current row. An optional label on the last bar displays the current percentile and regime. No higher-timeframe requests are used, so repaint risk is limited to normal live-bar fluctuation until the bar closes.
Parameter Guide
ATR length — Effect: Controls how fast ATR reacts to new ranges. Default: fourteen. Trade-offs/Tips: Increase to reduce noise in choppy markets; decrease to react faster during regime changes.
Percentile window (bars) — Effect: Number of bars used for the percentile ranking. Default: two hundred fifty-two. Trade-offs/Tips: Larger windows stabilize the percentile but slow adaptation after structural regime shifts; smaller windows adapt faster but may flip more often.
Table › Show — Effect: Toggles the regime overview table. Default: enabled. Trade-offs/Tips: Disable on constrained layouts to reduce visual clutter.
Table › Position — Effect: Anchors the table in a chart corner. Default: Top Right. Trade-offs/Tips: Choose a corner that avoids overlapping other panels or drawings.
Label › Show — Effect: Toggles a last-bar label with current percentile and regime. Default: enabled. Trade-offs/Tips: Useful for quick reads; disable if it obscures other annotations.
Reading & Interpretation
The white line shows ATR percentile between zero and one hundred. Crossing above seventy signals an elevated volatility environment; above ninety indicates event-driven extremes. Between thirty and seventy represents typical conditions. Between ten and thirty indicates calm conditions that often suit mean reversion. Below ten reflects compression, where breakout probability often increases. The colored bands visually reinforce these ranges. The table summarizes regime definitions and highlights the current state. The last-bar label mirrors the current percentile and regime for quick inspection.
Practical Workflows & Combinations
Trend following: Prefer continuation tactics when the percentile holds in the Normal or Elevated bands and structure confirms higher highs and higher lows. Consider wider stops and partial position sizing as percentile rises.
Mean reversion: Favor fades in Calm regimes within defined ranges; use structure filters and time-of-day constraints to avoid low-liquidity whipsaws.
Breakout preparation: Track compressions below ten; plan entries only with structure confirmation and risk caps, since compressions can persist.
Multi-asset/Multi-TF: Defaults travel well on daily charts. For intraday, reduce the percentile window to align with session dynamics. Combine with trend or market structure tools for confirmation.
Behavior, Constraints & Performance
Repaint/confirmation: The percentile updates during live bars and stabilizes on close; closed bars do not repaint.
security/HTF: Not used. If you add higher-timeframe aggregation externally, account for standard repaint caveats.
Resources: Declared maximum bars back is two thousand; limits for lines and labels are five hundred each. A short loop updates the table rows; arrays are used for table content only.
Known limits: Regime boundaries are fixed; assets with persistent volatility shifts may require window retuning. Low-liquidity periods and gaps can produce abrupt percentile changes. ATR is direction-agnostic and should be paired with trend or structure context.
Sensible Defaults & Quick Tuning
Start with ATR length fourteen and percentile window two hundred fifty-two on daily charts.
Too many flips: Increase ATR length or increase the percentile window.
Too sluggish: Decrease the percentile window or reduce ATR length.
Intraday noise: Keep ATR length moderate and reduce the window to a session-appropriate size; optionally hide the label to declutter.
Compressed markets: Maintain defaults but rely more on structure and volume filters before acting.
What this indicator is—and isn’t
This is a volatility regime context layer that standardizes ATR into interpretable regimes. It is not a complete trading system, not predictive, and not a stand-alone entry signal. Use it alongside structure analysis, confirmation tools, and disciplined risk management.
