VOLKDW!This indicator displays real-time trading volume to help identify institutional participation, momentum strength, and potential reversals.
Volume bars expand during periods of high market interest, often confirming breakouts, trend continuations, and high-probability entries. Contracting volume can signal exhaustion, consolidation, or weakening trends.
How to Use:
Rising price + rising volume → strong trend confirmation
Rising price + falling volume → possible divergence or fake breakout
High volume spikes → institutional activity or key decision points
Low volume zones → chop, consolidation, or no-trade environments
Best used alongside price action, support/resistance, ORB, and market structure for confirmation—not as a standalone signal.
💣 Volume Pressure Indicator – Description (Aggressive / Trader Style)
This indicator tracks raw volume pressure to expose where real money steps in.
Explosive volume bars often mark:
Breakouts that actually matter
Stop runs
Reversal traps
Trend continuation fuel
When price moves without volume, it’s usually fake.
When volume expands, something real is happening.
Trading Logic:
Volume spike + breakout = high-conviction move
Volume spike + rejection = reversal / fade setup
Weak volume = sit on hands
Climax volume = trend exhaustion warning
Designed to keep you out of dead markets and in sync with momentum.

VRVP Clone + Multi-POC -- PerroGordoVRVP Clone + Multi-POC
Overview
VRVP Clone + Multi-POC replicates TradingView's native Visible Range Volume Profile with several practical enhancements. The indicator displays volume distribution across price levels for the visible chart range, which is useful for identifying high-volume nodes, support/resistance zones, and areas of price acceptance.
The main differentiator from the built-in VRVP is support for multiple Point of Control (POC) lines with an intelligent peak detection algorithm. Instead of just showing the single highest-volume level, you can identify distinct volume clusters across different price zones.
Features
Dynamic Visible Range
Recalculates automatically on scroll or zoom
Analyzes only visible bars
Profile width scales proportionally to view
Multiple POC Detection (1-8 levels)
Volume Nodes Mode: Peak detection algorithm finds local volume maxima across distinct price clusters
Highest Rows Mode: Traditional approach - top N rows by raw volume
Configurable minimum separation between nodes to prevent bunching
Individual colors for each POC level
Volume Display Modes
Up/Down: Split bars showing buy vs. sell volume with black outlines for visual separation
Total: Single bar colored by dominant direction
Delta: Net volume (buy minus sell)
Delta Intensity: Gradient coloring indicating buyer/seller dominance strength per row
Value Area
Configurable percentage (default 70%)
VAH and VAL lines with customizable styles
Separate colors for volume inside vs. outside the Value Area
Positioning Options
Left or Right placement
Adjustable profile width as percentage of visible range
Row configuration via "Number of Rows" or "Ticks Per Row"
Additional Features
Statistics table showing bars analyzed, total volume, up/down percentages, price vs POC
POC price labels on chart
Line style options (Solid, Dashed, Dotted)
+++++
How It Works
Volume from each bar is distributed across price rows based on the bar's high-low range. The allocation is proportional - if a bar spans 3 rows with 60% overlap on one row, that row receives 60% of the bar's volume.
Volume Nodes Mode identifies local peaks in the distribution (rows where volume exceeds both neighbors), then selects the highest peaks while enforcing minimum separation. This surfaces distinct support/resistance clusters rather than stacking all POC lines in a single high-volume area.

Applications
Support/Resistance Identification
High-volume nodes tend to act as price magnets. Multiple POCs reveal layered S/R zones that aren't visible with a single POC.
Fair Value Reference
The Value Area represents where 70% of volume traded. Price tends to revert to this zone.
Volume Gap Analysis
Low-volume areas between POCs indicate prices that were rejected quickly - potential breakout or breakdown levels.
Market Structure
Multiple POCs across price levels show where the market has found acceptance, useful for distinguishing range-bound conditions from trending moves.
+++++
Practical Notes
Volume Nodes mode with 3-5 POCs works well for identifying distinct S/R clusters
Higher row counts give more granular analysis on lower timeframes
Delta Intensity mode quickly shows buyer/seller dominance at each level without the visual noise of split bars
If POCs are too clustered, increase Min Node Separation; if too spread out, decrease it or set to 0 for auto
The stats table vs POC comparison is useful for quick directional bias assessment
+++++
Requirements

Volume MAs Cloud Trend | Lyro RSVolume MAs Cloud Trend is a volume-weighted trend-following indicator designed to identify market direction, momentum strength, and dynamic trade management directly on price. By combining volume-adjusted moving averages, adaptive deviation bands, and an integrated ATR trailing stop, it delivers clear visual trend structure and actionable signals in a single overlay.
Key Features
Volume-Adjusted Moving Average
Uses a normalized formula: (Price × Volume) MA ÷ Volume MA, ensuring high-participation price moves carry greater influence. Supports 16+ MA types, with VWMA handled natively.
Deviation Band Cloud
Upper and lower bands are built from standard deviation over the MA length, scaled by independent positive and negative multipliers to adapt to volatility.
Cloud & Trail Modes
Cloud Mode visualizes trend structure using a filled band cloud.
Trail Mode switches to an ATR-based trailing stop for trend management.
Automatic Trend Signals
Bullish signals trigger when price crosses above the positive band.
Bearish signals trigger when price crosses below the negative band.
ATR Trailing Stop (Built-In)
A volatility-adjusted trailing stop initializes on each new trend and updates only in the trade direction, helping lock in gains while staying with the trend.
Custom Visuals & Palettes
Choose from Classic, Mystic, Accented, or Royal palettes, or define your own bullish and bearish colors. Includes MA glow, trend cloud fill, and trend-colored candles.
How It Works
MA Construction
Applies the selected moving average to volume-weighted price (or VWMA when selected) to create a participation-aware trend baseline.
Band Calculation
Calculates rolling standard deviation and offsets it using user-defined multipliers to form adaptive upper and lower trend bands.
Trend Detection
Crosses above the upper band confirm bullish momentum.
Crosses below the lower band confirm bearish momentum.
Trailing Stop Logic
On each new trend signal, an ATR-based trailing stop is initialized and dynamically updated in the trend direction.
Visual Synchronization
MA, cloud, trailing stop, and candles all change color in real time to reflect the current trend state.
Practical Use
Trend Confirmation
Sustained price action outside the cloud indicates strong directional momentum.
Breakout Identification
Band crosses highlight potential trend starts, especially when aligned with volatility expansion.
Trade Management
Trail Mode provides objective, volatility-based exits for trend-following strategies.
Quick Market Scanning
Color-coded candles and cloud structure allow fast visual assessment across multiple symbols and timeframes.
Customization
Adjust MA type and length to control responsiveness
Tune band multipliers for volatility sensitivity

Multi-Timeframe Volume Profile - Auto HVN WallsMulti-Timeframe Volume Profile - Auto HVN Walls
Overview This indicator provides a highly flexible Volume Profile solution that operates across multiple timeframes (Session, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly). Unlike standard profiles, this tool features a unique "Auto HVN Wall" detection system. It automatically identifies meaningful High Volume Nodes (HVNs) within the profile structure and extends them forward as potential support and resistance zones, creating a dynamic map of market structure as it develops.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Support: Switch seamlessly between Session, Weekly, Monthly, and Yearly profiles.
Auto HVN Walls (Structure Detection): The script analyzes the profile shape in real-time. When it detects significant clusters of volume (HVNs), it automatically draws extended lines ("walls"). These walls often act as magnets or support/resistance levels where price has previously found acceptance.
Session Filtering: When in "Session" mode, you can define specific time windows (e.g., 0930-1615) to isolate Regular Trading Hours (RTH) volume, ignoring overnight data.
Auto-Scaling Width (Monthly Mode): For Monthly profiles, the histogram width dynamically changes throughout the month. It starts wide at the beginning of the month to be visible and gradually narrows as the month progresses, keeping your chart clean.
High Precision: Uses lower timeframe data (user-selectable) to build the profile, ensuring accuracy even on higher timeframe charts.
Alerts: Built-in alert conditions for price crossing the developing POC, VAH, or VAL.
How It Works
Data Accumulation: The script fetches lower timeframe volume and price data (e.g., 5-minute data on a 1-hour chart) to construct a precise volume histogram.
Wall Detection: It runs a smoothing algorithm over the volume profile. If a price level accumulates volume significantly higher than the average (controlled by the Volume Threshold Multiplier), it marks that level as a "Wall" and extends it.
Value Area: Standard Value Area High (VAH), Value Area Low (VAL), and Point of Control (POC) are calculated and displayed for the selected period.
Settings Guide
Profile Period: Choose between Session, Weekly, Monthly, or Yearly.
Session Time: (Only active in "Session" mode) Define the start and end times for the profile (e.g., 0930-1615).
Calculation Precision: Determines the lower timeframe used to build the profile. Lower is more precise but may load slower.
The Walls:
Smoothing Factor: How much to smooth the volume data before finding walls. Higher = fewer, more significant walls.
Volume Threshold: How much volume is needed to trigger a wall.
Extend Walls: If checked, walls extend infinitely to the right.
Auto-Scale Width: (Monthly Only) dynamically adjusts the profile width based on the day of the month.
Use Case This tool is ideal for auction market theorists and volume profile traders who want to visualize where value is building in real-time and identify "sticky" price levels (Walls) where the market is likely to rotate or consolidate.

Apex Adaptive TrailApex Adaptive Trail: Adaptive Volatility Trend System
This custom trend-following indicator improves on standard SuperTrend implementations by addressing two key weaknesses: excessive whipsaws during high volatility and false signals in ranging markets.
Core Logic:
- Synthetic Heikin Ashi values are calculated internally (without changing chart candles) to provide smoother source data for trend detection.
- ATR-based trailing stop with adaptive multiplier: dynamically adjusts between 0.8x and 1.5x the base factor based on current volatility (ATR / 50-period SMA of ATR). Widens in volatile conditions, tightens in quiet markets.
- Weighted Confluence Score (0-100%): Combines four independent filters, each contributing 25%:
• Price position relative to 21-period EMA (trend alignment)
• ADX > 20 (momentum strength)
• Choppiness Index < 60 (trending vs ranging detection)
• Alignment with Daily EMA(50) trend direction
Signals are only generated when price crosses the adaptive trail AND the confluence score exceeds 75% (standard) or 90% (MAX 🔥 ultra-strong). This combination significantly reduces low-quality entries compared to traditional SuperTrend crossovers.
Key Features:
- Dynamic confidence cloud (opacity based on score)
- Real-time dashboard showing volatility state, active filters, trend bias, and estimated historical win rate
- Optional dynamic/fixed profit targets
- Fully customizable filters and adaptive behavior
Usage: Best on 15m to 4H timeframes for trend-following strategies (Crypto, Forex, Indices). Enter on APEX signals, use trail as stop-loss, TP lines for partial exits.
This script integrates established concepts into a unique adaptive framework with volatility-responsive risk management and multi-filter validation.
Disclaimer: For educational and analysis purposes only. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use proper risk management.
"This script combines established indicators (ATR trailing, ADX, Choppiness Index, EMA, MTF) into a unique adaptive system with dynamic volatility adjustment and weighted confluence scoring – features not found together in standard SuperTrend variations."
Volume-Weighted Price Z-Score [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Volume-Weighted Price Z-Score indicator quantifies price deviations from volume-weighted equilibrium using statistical standardization. It combines volume-weighted moving average analysis with logarithmic deviation measurement and volatility normalization to identify when prices have moved to statistically extreme levels relative to their volume-weighted baseline, helping traders and investors spot potential mean reversion opportunities across multiple timeframes and asset classes.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator's core methodology lies in its volume-weighted statistical approach, where price displacement is measured through normalized deviations from volume-weighted price levels:
volumeWeightedAverage = ta.vwma(priceSource, lookbackPeriod)
logDeviation = math.log(priceSource / volumeWeightedAverage)
volatilityMeasure = ta.stdev(logDeviation, lookbackPeriod)
The script uses logarithmic transformation to capture proportional price changes rather than absolute differences, ensuring equal treatment of percentage moves regardless of price level:
rawZScore = logDeviation / volatilityMeasure
zScore = ta.ema(rawZScore, smoothingPeriod)
First, it establishes the volume-weighted baseline which gives greater weight to price levels where significant trading occurred, creating a more representative equilibrium point than simple moving averages.
Then, the logarithmic deviation measurement converts the price-to-average ratio into a normalized scale:
logDeviation = math.log(priceSource / volumeWeightedAverage)
Next, statistical normalization is achieved by dividing the deviation by its own historical volatility, creating a standardized z-score that measures how many standard deviations the current price sits from the volume-weighted mean.
Finally, EMA smoothing filters noise while preserving the signal's responsiveness to genuine market extremes:
rawZScore = logDeviation / volatilityMeasure
zScore = ta.ema(rawZScore, smoothingPeriod)
This creates a volume-anchored statistical oscillator that combines price-volume relationship analysis with volatility-adjusted normalization, providing traders with probabilistic insights into market extremes and mean reversion potential based on standard deviation thresholds.
🟢 Signal Interpretation
▶ Positive Values (Above Zero): Price trading above volume-weighted average indicating potential overvaluation relative to volume-weighted equilibrium = Caution on longs, potential mean reversion downward = Short/sell opportunities
▶ Negative Values (Below Zero): Price trading below volume-weighted average indicating potential undervaluation relative to volume-weighted equilibrium = Caution on shorts, potential mean reversion upward = Long/buy opportunities
▶ Zero Line Crosses: Mean reversion transitions where price crosses back through volume-weighted equilibrium, indicating shift from overvalued to undervalued (or vice versa) territory
▶ Extreme Positive Zone (Above +2.5σ default): Statistically rare overvaluation representing 98.8%+ confidence level deviation, indicating extremely stretched bullish conditions with high mean reversion probability = Strong correction warning/short signal
▶ Extreme Negative Zone (Below -2.5σ default): Statistically rare undervaluation representing 98.8%+ confidence level deviation, indicating extremely stretched bearish conditions with high mean reversion probability = Strong buying opportunity signal
▶ ±1σ Reference Levels: Moderate deviation zones (±1 standard deviation) marking common price fluctuation boundaries where approximately 68% of price action occurs under normal distribution
▶ ±2σ Reference Levels: Significant deviation zones (±2 standard deviations) marking unusual price extremes where approximately 95% of price action should be contained under normal conditions
🟢 Features
▶ Preconfigured Presets: Three optimized parameter sets accommodate different analytical approaches, instruments and timeframes. "Default" provides balanced statistical measurement suitable for swing trading and daily/4-hour analysis, offering deviation detection with moderate responsiveness to price dislocations. "Fast Response" delivers heightened sensitivity optimized for intraday trading and scalping on 15-minute to 1-hour charts, using shorter statistical windows and minimal smoothing to capture rapid mean reversion opportunities as they develop. "Smooth Trend" offers conservative extreme identification ideal for position trading on daily to weekly charts, employing extended statistical periods and heavy noise filtering to isolate only the most significant market extremes.
▶ Built-in Alerts: Seven alert conditions enable comprehensive automated monitoring of statistical extremes and mean reversion events. Extreme Overbought triggers when z-score crosses above the extreme threshold (default +2.5σ) signaling rare overvaluation, Extreme Oversold activates when z-score crosses below the negative extreme threshold (default -2.5σ) signaling rare undervaluation. Exit Extreme Overbought and Exit Extreme Oversold alert when prices begin reverting from these statistical extremes back toward the mean. Bullish Mean Reversion notifies when z-score crosses above zero indicating shift to overvalued territory, while Bearish Mean Reversion triggers on crosses below zero indicating shift to undervalued territory. Any Extreme Level provides a combined alert for any extreme threshold breach regardless of direction. These notifications allow you to capitalize on statistically significant price dislocations without continuous chart monitoring.
▶ Color Customization: Six visual themes (Classic, Aqua, Cosmic, Ember, Neon, plus Custom) accommodate different chart backgrounds and visual preferences, ensuring optimal contrast for identifying positive versus negative deviations across trading environments. The adjustable fill transparency control (0-100%) allows fine-tuning of the gradient area prominence between the z-score line and zero baseline, with higher opacity values creating subtle background context while lower values produce bold deviation emphasis. Optional bar coloring extends the z-score gradient directly to the indicator pane bars, providing immediate visual reinforcement of current deviation magnitude and direction without requiring reference to the plotted line itself.
*Note: This indicator requires volume data to function correctly, as it calculates deviations from a volume-weighted price average. Tickers with no volume data or extremely limited volume will not produce meaningful results, i.e., the indicator may display flat lines, erratic values, or fail to calculate properly. Using this indicator on assets without volume data (certain forex pairs, synthetic indices, or instruments with unreported/unavailable volume) will produce unreliable or no results at all. Additionally, ensure your chart has sufficient historical data to cover the selected lookback period, e.g., using a 100-bar lookback on a chart with only 50 bars of history will yield incomplete or inaccurate calculations. Always verify your chosen ticker has consistent, accurate volume information and adequate price history before applying this indicator.
[PickMyTrade] Trend strategy for LongThis strategy detects descending trend resistance using pivot-based trendlines and enters long positions when price confirms a breakout above a validated trendline. It is designed to capture bullish trend reversals with strict risk control and flexible exit management.
The system focuses on structural market behavior rather than indicators, making it suitable for traders who prefer price-action-based decision making.
USAGE
This strategy automatically builds trendlines from confirmed pivot highs. A trendline is considered valid only when price has interacted with it a user-defined number of times, ensuring that trades are taken only from well-formed market structures.
A trade is triggered when price closes above a validated descending trendline while optional session and position limits are respected.
All risk and position sizing are calculated automatically based on the selected risk amount and stop-loss distance.
HOW IT WORKS
The strategy identifies swing highs using pivot logic and connects them into descending trendlines. Each trendline must meet a minimum number of touch confirmations before becoming eligible for trading.
When price closes above a valid trendline, the strategy calculates:
Stop-loss placement below the most recent pivot low
Position size based on fixed monetary risk
Profit targets based on the selected exit method
EXIT METHODS
Three exit models are supported:
Risk–Reward Ratio
Uses a fixed multiple of the defined risk distance to set the take-profit level.
Lookback Candle Exit
Exits trades when price shows structural reversal behavior based on recent candles.
Fibonacci Targets
Uses Fibonacci extensions derived from recent swing structure to trail profits dynamically.
An optional trailing stop can also be enabled to protect open profits.
FEATURES
Automatic pivot-based trendline detection
Multi-trendline or single-trendline operation
Dynamic position sizing based on monetary risk
Pivot-based stop-loss placement

Volume-Based Indicator — Data Granularity & Table Guide
1) Critical warning about data granularity (read first)
Important: This indicator is built entirely on volume-derived calculations (volume, volume delta, and related flow metrics). Because of that, its precision is only as good as the granularity and history of the data you feed it.
The most granular view is a tick-based interval (e.g., 1T = one trade/tick). If tick-based intervals are not available for your symbol or your plan, the closest time-based approximation is a 1-second chart (1S).
If you enable any "high-precision / intrabar" options (anything that relies on the smallest updates), make sure you understand which TradingView plan you are using, because intrabar historical depth (how many bars you can load) varies by plan.

Custom Weekly Volume Profile [Multi-Timeframe]Description: This indicator renders a high-precision Weekly Volume Profile that resets at the start of every trading week. Unlike standard fixed-range profiles, this script builds the profile bar-by-bar using lower timeframe data (e.g., 1-minute or 5-minute data) to ensure accuracy even on higher timeframe charts.
It is designed for traders who track the developing value of the current week (Auction Market Theory) and need specific alerts when price tests the edges of value.
Key Features:
Developing Weekly Profile:
The profile resets automatically at the beginning of the week (Sunday/Monday).
It tracks the Point of Control (POC), Value Area High (VAH), and Value Area Low (VAL) in real-time as the week progresses.
Previous Week Levels:
The script automatically stores the final levels (POC, VAH, VAL) of the previous week and projects them forward. This allows you to trade tests of the prior week's value.
Auto-Scaling Histogram:
Smart Width: The profile starts wider at the beginning of the week (when data is sparse) and automatically shrinks as the week progresses (Thursday/Friday) to keep your chart clean and readable.
Advanced Alerting:
Crossover Alerts: Trigger alerts when price crosses the developing VAH/VAL or the previous week's levels.
Time Window Filter: Includes a session input (default 08:30-15:00) to restrict alerts to specific trading hours, preventing notifications during low-volume overnight sessions.
Customization:
Precision: Adjustable "Row Size" and "Calculation Timeframe" to tune performance vs. accuracy.
Visuals: Full color control over the Value Area, Outer Volume, and Level Lines.
Settings:
Calculation Precision: Determines the lower timeframe used to calculate the volume (e.g., set to "5" for 5-minute precision).
Value Area %: Default is 70%, standard for AMT trading.
Timezone: Adjustable to ensure the weekly reset aligns with your local exchange time (e.g., America/Chicago for CME Futures).

Multi-Factor Long Bias ToolThe Multi Factor Long Bias Tool is designed to highlight periods when multiple bullish conditions align, helping traders identify higher probability long opportunities. By combining trend, momentum, and participation metrics into a unified visual signal, the indicator goes beyond single factor analysis to support more consistent decision making.
Optimized for a 1-hour chart, it integrates four complementary components—MACD momentum, RSI confirmation, volume participation, and optional short interest filtering—to reveal when market conditions collectively favor a long bias rather than isolated upswings.
Core Logic
1. Momentum confirmation with MACD (1 Hour Frame):
The tool uses a fast MACD configuration to capture short term momentum shifts. A bullish MACD state—where the MACD line is above its signal line, above zero, and supported by a positive histogram—indicates that short term momentum exceeds long term trend strength. This alignment reflects sustained upward pressure rather than temporary mean reversion.
2. Relative strength moderation via RSI:
RSI serves as a context filter to avoid extremes. The tool favors an RSI that falls between the oversold and overbought thresholds, typically between 30 and 70. This “healthy momentum zone” identifies when price maintains strength without being overheated, aligning with controlled, directional moves rather than exhaustion.
3. Volume backed participation:
A volume filter confirms whether moves are supported by meaningful market participation. The script compares current daily volume to its 20-day average; only sessions meeting or exceeding a user defined multiple (default: 1×) qualify as high volume days. This ensures momentum signals align with genuine liquidity rather than thin, unreliable activity.
4. Optional short interest condition:
An additional input allows traders to incorporate short interest data, either manually or from external sources. When enabled, the tool verifies that short interest meets a chosen minimum percentage before validating a long bias. This feature is especially useful for setups targeting potential short squeezes or for avoiding markets lacking a meaningful contrarian base.
Signal Interpretation
When MACD momentum, RSI positioning, volume participation, and optional short interest filters align, the chart background softens to green, indicating a “long bias” environment.
If the “Focus on Longs Only” option is active, a small upward triangle marker labeled LONG appears beneath price bars for clear visual confirmation.
Traders can also choose to view MACD, its signal line, histogram, and RSI in a detachable sub panel. This optional visualization makes it easy to inspect alignment between underlying momentum and the on-chart bias signal without cluttering the main price view.
Why These Factors Are Combined
Each component contributes a distinct layer of confirmation:
Momentum + liquidity: Ensures directional strength is backed by solid participation, preventing false breakouts on low volume moves.
RSI moderation: Filters out overextended rallies and unsustainable intraday spikes.
Short interest filter: Adds an optional contrarian check for potential squeeze setups or sentiment imbalance.
Together, these signals improve reliability by demanding agreement across multiple perspectives—trend, momentum, and market depth—before painting a bullish bias.
Practical Use and Tuning
The indicator serves as a bias and timing aid rather than a standalone trading system. It helps discretionary traders focus attention on periods when multiple conditions favor looking for long entries, while leaving exact entry, exit, and risk parameters to individual strategies.
All inputs—including MACD lengths, RSI range, daily volume multiplier, and short interest requirements—are fully adjustable to match various instruments, timeframes, and trading styles.
For instance:
Adjusting MACD lengths fine tunes responsiveness to trend shifts.
Modifying RSI thresholds changes the tolerance for extended momentum.
Raising the volume multiplier demands stronger conviction from market participants.
Visual Cues
Background highlight: Shaded green when all long bias conditions align.
Triangle markers: “LONG” indicators below bars when the tool detects favorable conditions.
Optional chart pane: Displays MACD and RSI for manual confirmation.
Intended Use
This tool assists traders in recognizing when technical, behavioral, and participation factors converge to support long opportunities. It is best used as part of a comprehensive trading process that includes broader context analysis, defined risk management, and confirmation from higher timeframe trends.
All parameters are user configurable for customization across markets and trading approaches. This indicator is for analytical purposes only and does not constitute financial or investment advice.

All-in-One CVD: Failed Auction + Trap + Flow Classifications All-in-One CVD : Failed Auction/Trap + Flow Classifications (Colored Bars)
Description:
This script provides an advanced order flow and delta-based trading visualization designed to highlight key market microstructure events in real time. It combines Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD), failed auction detection, absorption tracking, continuation signals, and trap identification into a single, coherent tool with colored bars and visual markers. Unlike standard volume or trend-following indicators, this script focuses on aggressive order flow and price acceptance/rejection events, making it particularly suitable for scalping, intraday momentum trading, and identifying high-probability short-term setups.
Originality and Purpose:
Many scripts either show CVD or detect failed auctions separately, but this script integrates multiple advanced flow concepts into one indicator.
By combining CVD, normalized delta, strong delta thresholds, failed auctions, absorption, traps, and continuation patterns, traders can identify where aggressive buying or selling is being absorbed, where price is likely to continue, and where traps are forming.
The mashup is intentional: each component validates the other. For example, a failed auction signal without absorption is less significant, while a failed auction coinciding with absorption signals a true high-probability trap or reversal.
Failed auctions typically align with "Failed 2" patterns from The Strat by Rob Smith, providing additional confirmation using a well-established price action methodology.
How It Works:
Volume and Delta Calculation:
Computes buying and selling pressure from volume and bar structure (high/low/close).
Supports UltraData mode for enhanced volume calculations using security data.
Options for Cumulative Mode: Total, Periodic, or EMA-based CVD.
Normalized Delta and Strong Delta Detection:
Calculates normalized delta (z-score) to standardize flow across different volatility regimes.
Flags strong buying or selling when delta exceeds user-defined thresholds.
Failed Auction Detection:
Highlights bars where price attempted to break previous highs/lows but failed to sustain, signaling trapped aggressive participants.
True failed auctions can coincide with absorption for higher-probability setups.
Absorption:
Detects situations where strong aggressive flow is absorbed at key levels, showing institutional participation or liquidity consumption.
Bullish absorption occurs when aggressive buying is absorbed at previous lows; bearish absorption occurs when aggressive selling is absorbed at previous highs.
Flow Classification:
Continuation: Aggressive flow accepted by the market — often the next candle continues in the direction of the delta.
Important: A single continuation signal does not guarantee follow-through. Traders should view it as an indicator that aggressive participants are in control for the current candle, and consider market context, trend, and support/resistance before assuming continuation. Multiple consecutive continuation signals or confirmation with absorption/strong delta increases reliability.
Trap: Aggressive flow trapped — the market reverses after failed auction.
Absorption: Aggressive orders absorbed — market shows hesitation at tested levels.
Colored CVD Bars and Visual Markers:
Bars colored green/red/gray based on delta direction.
Visual markers indicate flow state: circles for continuation, X-cross for traps, triangles for absorption.
Works in real time — live candles are updated with flow state markers.
Alerts:
Custom alert conditions for each flow type: continuation, trap, and absorption.
Alerts provide actionable signals for automated monitoring or manual trading.
Trading Applications:
Trap Trading: Identify aggressive buyers/sellers who fail to push price and get trapped. Use trap signals to fade reversals.
Continuation Trading: Detect market acceptance of aggressive flow for trend-following or breakout strategies. Use caution: a single continuation signal indicates probability, not certainty, and should be confirmed with structural context.
Absorption Analysis: Spot where institutional participants absorb liquidity before a potential directional move.
Intraday Scalping: Combines delta, volume, failed auction logic, and Strat alignment for high-frequency setups.
Key Notes:
True failed auctions with significant market impact require absorption — otherwise, a simple failed attempt may be a weak signal.
The script works across multiple markets (Forex, Crypto, Stock) and supports live bar updates.
Users can adjust strong delta thresholds, period lengths, and cumulative modes to fit their preferred trading style or volatility regime.
Conclusion:
This all-in-one script provides traders with a comprehensive, visually intuitive, and real-time method to detect aggressive flow, failed auctions, absorption, and continuation patterns. By linking failed auctions to The Strat’s failed 2 patterns, and clarifying the probabilistic nature of continuation signals, it merges advanced delta analytics with proven price action methodology, making it highly original, actionable, and educational for understanding market order flow dynamics.
Volume Expansion vs 20-Day AverageThis indicator compares the current bar’s volume with the average volume of the previous 20 periods.
It highlights moments of volume expansion, where trading activity exceeds its recent norm, often associated with increased participation, momentum, or institutional interest.
The indicator is designed to be used as a filter, not a standalone signal. It is particularly useful for confirming breakouts, momentum setups, or avoiding low-quality trades during low-liquidity conditions.
Volume thresholds can be adjusted to require a minimum multiple of the average volume, allowing traders to focus only on meaningful volume surges.
Advanced Footprint Analysis1. ABSORPTION = BEST ENTRY SIGNALS
When BTC hits support and shows bullish absorption:
You know big money is buying
Price won't fall further (supply absorbed)
Risk/reward is optimal (tight stop below absorption)
Win rate on these setups is 70-80%
2. EXHAUSTION = REVERSAL TIMING
Catches exact moment selling/buying pressure is exhausted
No more guessing "is the dip over?"
Volume confirms the reversal
3. IMBALANCES = CONTINUATION TRADES
Stacked imbalances show trend strength
Enter pullbacks in strong trends
Avoid counter-trend trades when imbalance is strong
4. DELTA DIVERGENCE = EARLY WARNING
Cumulative delta rising but price flat = accumulation (buy setup)
Cumulative delta falling but price rising = distribution (sell setup)
This divergence appears BEFORE price moves
5. FILTERS OUT NOISE
Crypto has tons of fake volume and wash trading
By requiring volume to be significantly above average (2x, 3x), you ignore the noise
Only trade when institutions are active
6. WORKS ON ALL CRYPTO PAIRS
BTC, ETH, SOL - same patterns
Especially powerful on perpetual futures (more volume data)
PRACTICAL 5M CRYPTO ALGO STRATEGY:
LONG ENTRY:
Wait for bullish absorption OR bullish exhaustion
Confirm with positive stacked imbalances (3 bars)
Enter when price breaks above absorption high
Stop below absorption low
Target: 2-3x risk or next resistance
SHORT ENTRY:
Wait for bearish absorption OR bearish exhaustion
Confirm with negative stacked imbalances
Enter when price breaks below absorption low
Stop above absorption high
Target: 2-3x risk or next support
FILTER:
Only trade in direction of cumulative delta trend
Avoid when volume is below average (no institutional activity)
