Sri_Momentum Burst Histogram📝 Description :
🌀 Sri_Momentum Burst Histogram — A Custom Momentum and Volatility Fusion Tool
The Sri_Momentum Burst Histogram is a unique technical analysis tool designed to visualize sudden changes in price momentum in the form of a dynamic, color-coded histogram. This indicator helps traders identify trend accelerations, early momentum shifts, and potential exhaustion in real time.
By combining a MACD-like momentum engine with a volatility-sensitive Bollinger Band range, this script offers an enhanced view of market bursts — moments where momentum "pops" beyond typical ranges. The result is a refined perspective on market sentiment, helping traders to anticipate reversals, follow breakouts, and assess the relative strength of ongoing trends.
🧠 Core Methodology
The indicator calculates the difference between a fast and slow EMA (Exponential Moving Average), similar to a MACD histogram.
This difference is then compared across candles to gauge the rate of change in momentum — referred to here as a “momentum burst.”
A sensitivity multiplier allows you to scale the response based on your preferred timeframe and trading style.
A volatility band, derived from Bollinger Band logic, is used to frame the relative intensity of the momentum change.
The histogram is divided into two parts:
Green/Lime Bars represent increasing and decreasing bullish momentum.
Red/Orange Bars represent increasing and decreasing bearish momentum.
⚙️ Customizable Inputs
Momentum Sensitivity: Adjust the responsiveness of the burst detection mechanism.
Short EMA Period: Sets the lookback period for the fast EMA.
Long EMA Period: Sets the lookback period for the slow EMA.
Volatility Band Length: Controls the length used for Bollinger Band calculations.
Band Std Dev Multiplier: Adjusts how wide the volatility range should be, based on price dispersion.
📈 How to Use It
Use the green/red histogram bars to visually gauge momentum strength and direction.
Watch for transitions in color intensity (e.g., green to lime, red to orange) as early warning signs of trend exhaustion or reversal.
Combine with other indicators like RSI, MACD, ADX, or volume profiles to confirm entry/exit points.
Useful in both trending and ranging markets, especially on lower timeframes for scalping or intraday setups.

Candle/Keltner Channels BUY SELLWhy Use Candlesticks?
They help traders visualize price action
Used in technical analysis and price pattern recognition (e.g., Doji, Engulfing, Hammer)
Assist in determining entry and exit points
Why Traders Use Keltner Channels?
Keltner Channels are widely used by traders for identifying trends, detecting volatility, and spotting trade opportunities.
1. Trend Identification
The middle line (EMA) shows the general trend.
If price consistently stays above the middle line, it indicates a strong uptrend.
If price stays below, it signals a downtrend.
Use: Traders follow the trend direction to enter trades in line with momentum.
2. Volatility Measurement
The width of the channel expands and contracts based on Average True Range (ATR).
Wider channels = high volatility, tighter channels = low volatility.
Use: Helps traders decide when to expect breakouts or calm periods.
3. Breakout Signals
A break above the upper band can signal a bullish breakout.
A break below the lower band can signal a bearish breakout.
Use: Traders use this for momentum trading and breakout entries.
4. Overbought/Oversold Conditions
Price touching or crossing the upper band may suggest it's overbought.
Price touching or crossing the lower band may suggest it's oversold.
Use: Traders combine this with RSI or MACD to confirm reversal setups.
5. Trade Entry and Exit
When price pulls back to the middle EMA during a trend, it may present a buy/sell opportunity.
Exits can also be planned if price returns inside the bands after a breakout.
Use: Helps with precise entry and exit timing.
6. Combines Well With Other Indicators
Commonly used with:
RSI (for confirmation)
MACD (for momentum)
Candlestick patterns (for price action signals)
Combining Candlestick Patterns with Keltner Channels gives traders a powerful method to confirm entries, spot reversals, and improve accuracy. Here’s why this combination works so well:
1. Context for Candlestick Signals
Candlestick patterns (like doji, engulfing, or pin bars) show potential price reversals, but they need context to be reliable. Keltner Channels provide that context:
A bullish candlestick near the lower band suggests a stronger buy signal.
A bearish candlestick near the upper band strengthens a sell signal.
2. Filtering False Signals
Candlestick patterns occur frequently, and not all are meaningful.
The location within the Keltner Channel helps filter out weak or false patterns.
Example: A bullish engulfing candle outside the lower band = high-probability reversal.
3. Improved Entry Timing
Traders wait for a candlestick pattern confirmation when price touches or crosses a Keltner band.
This avoids premature entries and allows tighter stop-losses.
4. Better Risk-Reward Setup
Candlestick entry near channel extremes (upper/lower band) lets traders place stop-losses just beyond recent highs/lows.
The target can be the opposite side of the channel or the middle EMA.
5. Visual Simplicity
Keltner Channels + Candles are visually intuitive.
Even beginner traders can easily recognize:
Overextended candles near channel edges.
Confirmed breakouts or reversals.

Precision Entry Signals (RSI + MA12 Logic)Description:
This script provides precise entry signals based on a clean confluence of MA12 breakouts and RSI momentum, filtered by a VWMA (Volume-Weighted Moving Average) of the RSI.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
🔹 Long entry conditions:
- Candle opens below the 12-period MA and closes above it
- RSI crosses above its VWMA
- Previous candle is bearish (additional confirmation)
🔹 Short entry conditions:
- Candle opens above the 12-period MA and closes below it
- RSI crosses below its VWMA
- Previous candle is bullish
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once a signal is confirmed, the script automatically draws:
Entry line (at close price)
Stop Loss line (just below recent lows for long, or above highs for short)
Take Profit 1 (1R)
Take Profit 2 (2R)
Labels are attached to the lines for clarity: ENTRY, SL, TP1, and TP2.
⚠️ Note: This tool only provides entry signals and visual risk/reward guidance. It does not manage exits dynamically. Manual trade management is recommended.
This script is intended for active intraday traders, especially on lower timeframes like 3-minute, 5-minute or 15-minute charts.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
🔧 Recommended companion indicator:
For better confirmation and visual tracking of the RSI/VWMA cross logic, it is strongly recommended to also use the companion script:
🔹 Relative Strength Index (with MA based cross signals)
→ Shows RSI and its moving average visually, with triangle plots on every valid cross.
→ Matches exactly the RSI/VWMA behavior used in this entry signal script.
📌 Important:
After adding the RSI script to your chart, make sure to set:
RSI Length = 14
MA Type = VWMA
MA Length = 20
This ensures it visually matches the logic used by the entry signal script.
Both indicators are fully open source and meant to be used together — especially when trading manually.
Volume & Price Analysis Across SessionsVolume & Price Analysis Across Sessions:
This advanced volume profile-based indicator provides a detailed visualization of market activity by analyzing volume distribution and price behavior across user-defined trading sessions. It dynamically calculates and displays the price level with the highest traded volume —for each user defined session, along with historical POCs, offering valuable insights into price acceptance zones and market sentiment over time.
Benefits:
Volume-Weighted Price Insights: Go beyond simple price action by integrating volume data to identify key levels where market participants are most active.
Multi-Session Context: Analyze volume concentration across multiple sessions to better anticipate support/resistance and potential reversal zones.
Visual Clarity: Intuitive color gradients and line widths make interpreting complex volume data straightforward.
Customizable to Fit Any Trading Style: Adjustable session length and sensitivity make it suitable for day trading, swing trading, or longer-term analysis.
This indicator is ideal for traders looking to integrate volume profile concepts directly on price charts with session-specific granularity, enabling deeper understanding of market structure and more informed trading decisions.
How It Works:
The indicator segments price and volume data into discrete sessions based on the selected timeframe.
Within each session, it bins volumes by price levels and identifies the POC — the price with the highest aggregated volume.
It draws the current session’s POC line on the chart, adjusting its thickness dynamically relative to volume strength using a z-score-based calculation.
Upon session completion, the POC line for that session is preserved on the chart in a gradient color reflecting relative volume magnitude compared to previous sessions.
Users can optionally enable deviation lines to observe volatility or price spread within each session.
The script efficiently manages historical POC lines, deleting the oldest when exceeding the maximum configured number to keep the chart clean.
Key Features:
Session-Based Volume Profile: Defines custom sessions based on a selectable timeframe (default 4 hours) and calculates volume bins within each session to identify where the most trading activity occurred.
Dynamic POC Line: Highlights the current session’s POC with a line whose width adapts based on volume intensity, controlled by a user-adjustable volume sensitivity parameter.
Historical POCs with Volume Gradient: Displays up to 30 previous session POC lines colored with a gradient ranging from low-volume (semi-transparent red) to high-volume (solid green), enabling quick visual identification of significant volume levels over time.
Standard Deviation Lines (Optional): Optionally plots ±1 standard deviation lines around the POC to visualize price dispersion within sessions.
Configurable Parameters: Allows full customization of appearance and sensitivity including POC line colors, maximum line widths, session timeframe, and the maximum number of price bins for volume aggregation.
Default Parameters Used:
Session Timeframe: 240 minutes (4-hour sessions)
POC Line Color: Yellow

SuperTrend Confluence Signals [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script enhances the classic SuperTrend indicator by integrating volume dynamics, retracement detection, and a multi-asset trend matrix—alongside an automatic mitigation-level drawing system. It's designed for traders who want to see not just trend direction, but the confluence of trend strength, volatility-adjusted retracements, and capital flow through volume pressure. It visually maps key transitions in market structure while offering a clean, color-coded overview of multiple symbols and timeframes in a single chart.
CONCEPTS
At the core is the traditional SuperTrend , which determines directional bias using Average True Range (ATR) with a volatility multiplier. This script overlays that with a dynamic volume histogram that scales relative to recent volume standard deviation, coloring volume bursts within the trend. Retracement signals are triggered when price pulls back toward the SuperTrend level but respects it—quantified through normalized distance sensitivity. On top of that, the indicator automatically draws and manages horizontal support/resistance zones that appear at key trend shifts. These levels persist and are cleared based on configurable rules such as wick/body sweeps or consecutive candle closes. A multi-asset, multi-timeframe table then gives an instant snapshot of trend status across five user-defined symbols and timeframes.
FEATURES
SuperTrend : Configurable ATR length and multiplier for flexible trend sensitivity.
Volumetric Histogram : Gradient-filled candles anchored to SuperTrend bands, scaled by relative volume to indicate activity intensity during trends.
Retracement Arrows : Signals printed when price nears the SuperTrend level without breaking it, allowing identification of high-probability continuation zones.
Volume TP Markers : Diamond markers flag high-volume events, contextualizing price moves with liquidity bursts.
Automatic Structure Levels : Draws clean horizontal lines at significant trend transitions, with optional volatility-based band fills. These levels self-update and clear based on price interaction logic.
Trend Table : Displays trend direction (▲/▼) across five assets and five timeframes. Each cell is colored according to trend bias, providing a compact overview for multi-market confluence.
USAGE
Start by loading the indicator on your main chart and adjusting the ATR Length and Multiplier to match your strategy timeframe. Use lower values for scalping and higher values for swing trading. The histogram bars will appear as colored candles above or below the SuperTrend level, indicating how strong volume is within that trend. Arrow signals suggest minor pullbacks within the trend, which can act as entry opportunities. The level system will automatically plot key price zones during trend flips; if "Body" is selected for mitigation, price must close through the level to invalidate it. If "Wick" is chosen, a single wick breach is enough. Adjust expiry and rejection settings to fine-tune how long levels stay on chart. Finally, enable the Multi-Asset Table to view live trend signals across popular symbols like AAPL or NVDA in different timeframes, helping spot macro-to-micro alignment for higher-confidence trades.

Happy Trading! May the volume be with you!
Volume Profile (PRO) [ActiveQuants]The Volume Profile (PRO) indicator is an advanced analytical tool designed to provide traders with a deep understanding of market dynamics by displaying trading activity across different price levels over a specified period. By meticulously plotting volume distribution , this indicator helps identify significant price zones, such as areas of high acceptance ( High Volume Nodes - HVNs ), rejection ( Low Volume Nodes - LVNs ), Volume Peaks Clusters , Volume Troughs Clusters , the Point of Control (POC) , and the Value Area (VA) . This insight is crucial for spotting potential support/resistance levels, assessing market sentiment, and making more informed trading decisions.
This indicator operates on the principle that price levels with higher traded volume hold greater significance, often acting as pivotal points for future price movements. Conversely, areas with low volume typically indicate less agreement on price, leading to quicker price transitions. The Volume Profile (PRO) offers extensive customization to tailor the analysis to your specific needs and trading style.
█ KEY FEATURES
Comprehensive Volume Analysis: Visualize volume distribution horizontally, revealing key price levels based on actual traded volume.
Dynamic Profile Calculation: Uses a rolling lookback period to keep the profile relevant to recent price action.
Point of Control (POC): Automatically identifies and plots the price level with the highest traded volume within the profile period. Available as a "Regular" (fixed for the current profile) or "Developing" line that tracks its evolution bar-by-bar.
Value Area (VA): Highlights the price range where a specified percentage (typically 70%) of the total volume was traded. Also available as "Regular" or "Developing" VAH (Value Area High) and VAL (Value Area Low) lines.
High and Low Volume Nodes (HVNs & LVNs): Option to automatically detect and highlight a specified number of the highest volume concentration zones (HVNs) and lowest volume zones (LVNs) within the profile. These are crucial for identifying support/resistance and areas of potential quick price movement.
Volume Peaks and Troughs Detection: Identify statistically significant high-volume (Peaks) and low-volume (Troughs) rows relative to their neighbors, either as single rows or clusters. These can pinpoint precise levels of interest.
Multiple Volume Display Types: Choose to display volume as:
- Up/Down: Shows buying and selling volume side-by-side for each row.
- Total: Shows the aggregate volume for each row.

Click " Create ".
█ STRATEGY EXAMPLES
The following examples are for illustrative purposes only to demonstrate how the Volume Profile (PRO) can be used. They are not financial advice. Always conduct thorough backtesting and research.
1. POC as Dynamic Support/Resistance
Goal: Identify potential bounces or rejections from the Point of Control.
Setup: Enable "POC Line" (Regular or Developing) and observe price interaction.
Entry (Long):
- Price approaches the POC from above and shows signs of holding (e.g., bullish candlestick patterns, deceleration).
- Enter on confirmation of support at the POC.
Entry (Short):
- Price approaches the POC from below and shows signs of rejection (e.g., bearish candlestick patterns).
- Enter on confirmation of resistance at the POC.
Management: Stop-loss beyond the recent swing pivot or the POC itself after a confirmed break. Target the next significant volume node (HVN/LVN) or Value Area boundary.
2. Trading Low Volume Nodes (LVNs) as "Vacuum Zones"
Goal: Capitalize on rapid price movement through LVNs and their potential to become support/resistance once traversed.
Setup: Enable "Lowest Volume Nodes" to identify LVNs.
Entry (Long):
- Price breaks decisively above an LVN.
- Look for a retest of the top of the LVN as support. Enter long on confirmation.
Entry (Short):
- Price breaks decisively below an LVN.
- Look for a retest of the bottom of the LVN as resistance. Enter short on confirmation.
Concept: Price is expected to move quickly through LVNs (volume vacuum). Once price has passed through an LVN, that area of prior low acceptance can act as a new support/resistance zone.
Management: Stop-loss beyond the retested LVN. Target the next HVN or significant price level.
█ CONCLUSION
The Volume Profile (PRO) indicator offers a sophisticated and highly customizable approach to volume analysis. By providing clear visualizations of POC, Value Area, HVNs, LVNs, and Volume Peaks/Troughs, along with integrated alerts and developing levels, this tool empowers traders to identify critical price zones, understand market structure, and develop more nuanced trading strategies. Whether you're looking for precise entry points, areas of support and resistance, or confirmation of market sentiment, this Volume Profile indicator is an invaluable addition to your technical analysis toolkit.
█ IMPORTANT NOTES
⚠ Lookback vs. Calculated Bars Relationship: The value set in the " Lookback " input ( Calculation Settings ) must be less than half of the number of bars the indicator is set to calculate on your chart (referred to as " Calculated bars " in the script, typically controlled by TradingView's historical data loading or a calc_bars_count setting within the script's indicator() declaration – in this script, it is 1200 bars by default). For example, if "Calculated bars" is 1200, your Lookback should be less than 600. The default Lookback of 500 respects this. Setting a Lookback too high relative to available calculated bars can lead to errors or incorrect profile rendering.
⚠ Parameter Optimization: The default settings are starting points. Always adjust indicator parameters (Lookback, Number of Rows, VA%, etc.) based on the specific asset, its volatility, and the timeframe you are trading. Thorough backtesting is crucial.
⚠ Context is Key: Volume Profile is powerful, but its signals are best interpreted within the broader market context (trend, news, other technical indicators).
⚠ Lookback vs. Profile Stability: A shorter lookback makes the profile very responsive to recent action but less stable. A longer lookback provides more stable levels but may lag in fast-moving markets.
⚠ Number of Rows: Higher row counts offer more granularity but can impact performance and may show too much noise. Lower row counts offer a broader view but may obscure finer details.
⚠ Alert Confirmation: Using " Once Per Bar Close " for alerts is generally recommended to ensure signals are based on confirmed price action.
█ RISK DISCLAIMER
Trading involves a substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. The Volume Profile (PRO) indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only . It does NOT constitute financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any asset. Indicator signals identify potential patterns based on historical data but do not guarantee future price movements or profitability. Always conduct your own thorough research, utilize multiple sources of information, and implement robust risk management practices before making any trading decisions. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

Quantum State Superposition Indicator (QSSI)Quantum State Superposition Indicator (QSSI) - Where Physics Meets Finance
The Quantum Revolution in Market Analysis
After months of research into quantum mechanics and its applications to financial markets, I'm thrilled to present the Quantum State Superposition Indicator (QSSI) - a groundbreaking approach that models price action through the lens of quantum physics. This isn't just another technical indicator; it's a paradigm shift in how we understand market behavior.
The Theoretical Foundation
Quantum Superposition in Markets
In quantum mechanics, particles exist in multiple states simultaneously until observed. Similarly, markets exist in a superposition of potential states (bullish, bearish, neutral) until a significant volume event "collapses" the wave function into a definitive direction.
The mathematical framework:
Wave Function (Ψ): Represents the market's quantum state as a weighted sum of all possible states:
Ψ = Σ(αᵢ × Sᵢ)
Where αᵢ are probability amplitudes and Sᵢ are individual quantum states.
Probability Amplitudes: Calculated using the Born rule, normalized so Σ|αᵢ|² = 1
Observation Operator: Volume/Average Volume ratio determines observation strength
The Five Quantum States
Momentum State: Short-term price velocity (EMA of returns)
Mean Reversion State: Deviation from equilibrium (normalized z-score)
Volatility Expansion State: ATR relative to historical average
Trend Continuation State: Long-term price positioning
Chaos State: Volatility of volatility (market uncertainty)
Each state contributes to the overall wave function based on current market conditions.
Wave Function Collapse
When volume exceeds the observation threshold (default 1.5x average), the wave function "collapses," committing the market to a direction. This models how institutional volume forces markets out of uncertainty into trending states.
Collapse Detection Formula:
Collapse = Volume > (Threshold × Average Volume)
Direction = Sign(Ψ) at collapse moment
Advanced Quantum Concepts
Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle
The indicator calculates market uncertainty as the product of price and momentum
uncertainties:
ΔP × ΔM = ℏ (market uncertainty constant)
This manifests as dynamic uncertainty bands that widen during unstable periods.
Quantum Tunneling
Calculates the probability of price "tunneling" through resistance/support barriers:
P(tunnel) = e^(-2×|barrier_height|×√coherence_length)
Unlike classical technical analysis, this gives probability of breakouts before they occur.
Entanglement
Measures the quantum correlation between price and volume:
Entanglement = |Correlation(Price, Volume, lookback)|
High entanglement suggests coordinated institutional activity.
Decoherence
When market states lose quantum properties and behave classically:
Decoherence = 1 - Σ(amplitude²)
Indicates trend emergence from quantum uncertainty.
Visual Innovation
Probability Clouds
Three-tier probability distributions visualize market uncertainty:
Inner Cloud (68%): One standard deviation - most likely price range
Middle Cloud (95%): Two standard deviations - probable extremes
Outer Cloud (99.7%): Three standard deviations - tail risk zones
Cloud width directly represents market uncertainty - wider clouds signal higher entropy states.
Quantum State Visualization
Colored dots represent individual quantum states:
Green: Momentum state strength
Red: Mean reversion state strength
Yellow: Volatility state strength
Dot brightness indicates amplitude (influence) of each state.
Collapse Events
Aqua Diamonds (Above): Bullish collapse - upward commitment
Pink Diamonds (Below): Bearish collapse - downward commitment
These mark precise moments when markets exit superposition.
Implementation Details
Core Calculations
Feature Extraction: Normalize price returns, volume ratios, and volatility measures
State Calculation: Compute each quantum state's value
Amplitude Assignment: Weight states by market conditions and observation strength
Wave Function: Sum weighted states for final market quantum state
Visualization: Transform quantum values to price space for display
Performance Optimization
- Efficient array operations for state calculations
- Single-pass normalization algorithms
- Optimized correlation calculations for entanglement
- Smart label management to prevent visual clutter

Risk Management
Uncertainty-Based Position Sizing:
Narrow clouds: Normal position size
Wide clouds: Reduced position size
Extreme uncertainty: Stay flat
Quantum Stop Losses:
- Place stops outside probability clouds
- Adjust for Heisenberg uncertainty
- Respect quantum tunneling levels
Market Regime Recognition
Quantum Coherent (Superposed):
- Market in multiple states
- Avoid directional trades
- Prepare for collapse

Perfect for traders seeking deeper market understanding.
Disclaimer
This indicator is for educational and research purposes only. While quantum mechanics provides a fascinating framework for market analysis, no indicator can predict future prices with certainty. The probabilistic nature of both quantum mechanics and markets means outcomes are inherently uncertain.
Always use proper risk management, conduct thorough analysis, and never risk more than you can afford to lose. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Conclusion
The Quantum State Superposition Indicator represents a revolutionary approach to market analysis, bringing institutional-grade quantum modeling to retail traders. By viewing markets through the lens of quantum mechanics, we gain unique insights into uncertainty, probability, and state transitions that classical indicators miss.
Whether you're a physicist interested in finance or a trader seeking cutting-edge tools, QSSI opens new dimensions in market analysis.
"The market, like Schrödinger's cat, exists in multiple states until observed through volume."
* As you may have noticed, the past two indicators I've released (Lorentzian Classification and Quantum State Superposition) are designed with strategy implementation in mind. I'm currently developing a stable execution platform that's completely unique and moves away from traditional ATR-based position sizing and stop loss systems. I've found ATR-based approaches to be unreliable in volatile markets and regime transitions - they often lag behind actual market conditions and can lead to premature exits or oversized positions during volatility spikes.
The goal is to create something that adapts to market conditions in real-time using the quantum and relativistic principles we've been exploring. Hopefully I'll have something groundbreaking to share soon. Stay tuned!

Delta Volume Profile [BigBeluga]🔵Delta Volume Profile
A dynamic volume analysis tool that builds two separate horizontal profiles: one for bullish candles and one for bearish candles. This indicator helps traders identify the true balance of buying vs. selling volume across price levels, highlighting points of control (POCs), delta dominance, and hidden volume clusters with remarkable precision.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Split Volume Profiles (Bull vs. Bear):
The indicator separates volume based on candle direction:
If close > open , the candle’s volume is added to the bullish profile (positive volume).
If close < open , it contributes to the bearish profile (negative volume).
ATR-Based Binning:
The price range over the selected lookback is split into bins using ATR(200) as the bin height.
Each bin accumulates both bull and bear volumes to form the dual-sided profile.
Bull and Bear Volume Bars:
Bullish volumes are shown as right-facing bars on the right side, colored with a bullish gradient.
Bearish volumes appear as left-facing bars on the left side, shaded with a bearish gradient.
Each bar includes a volume label (e.g., +12.45K or -9.33K) to show exact volume at that price level.
Points of Control (POC) Highlighting:
The bin with the highest bullish volume is marked with a border in POC+ color (default: blue).
The bin with the highest bearish volume is marked with a POC− color (default: orange).
Total Volume Density Map:
A neutral gray background box is plotted behind candles showing the total volume (bull + bear) per bin.
This reveals high-interest price zones regardless of direction.
Delta and Total Volume Summary:
A Delta label appears at the top, showing net % difference between bull and bear volume.
A Total label at the bottom shows total accumulated volume across all bins.
🔵 HOW IT WORKS
The indicator captures all candles within the lookback period .
It calculates the price range and splits it into bins using ATR for adaptive resolution.
For each candle:
If price intersects a bin and close > open , volume is added to the positive profile .
If close < open , volume is added to the negative profile .
The result is two side-by-side histograms at each price level—one for buyers, one for sellers.
The bin with the highest value on each side is visually emphasized using POC highlight colors.
At the end, the script calculates:
Delta: Total % difference between bull and bear volumes.
Total: Sum of all volumes in the lookback window.
🔵 USAGE
Volume Imbalance Zones: Identify price levels where buyers or sellers were clearly dominant.
Fade or Follow Volume Clusters: Use POC+ or POC− levels for reaction trades or breakouts.
Delta Strength Filtering: Strong delta values (> ±20%) suggest momentum or exhaustion setups.
Volume-Based Anchoring: Use profile levels to mark hidden support/resistance and execution zones.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Delta Volume Profile offers a unique advantage in market reading by separating buyer and seller activity into two visual layers. This allows traders to not only spot where volume was high, but also who was more aggressive. Whether you’re analyzing trend continuations, reversals, or absorption levels, this indicator gives you the transparency needed to trade with confidence.
Leslie's EMA Ribbon: 5/9/21 + VWAPEMA + VWAP Crossover Indicator with Alerts
This script blends three Exponential Moving Averages (5, 9, 21) with VWAP to identify momentum shifts and volume-confirmed trend signals. It’s optimized for the Daily timeframe, but also adaptable to shorter-term trading.
🔍 Why this combination?
EMAs provide fast and reliable trend signals:
- 5/9 EMA crossover → short-term shifts (more frequent)
- 9/21 EMA crossover → swing confirmation (less noise)
- VWAP adds volume context used by institutions for fair value tracking.
- 9EMA crossing VWAP confirms price action supported by volume.
Together, these tools offer a multi-layered view of market momentum — combining speed, confirmation, and conviction.
⚙️ Features:
Clean plots with dynamic labels on latest bar
Adjustable line weights for clarity
Alerts included for all crossovers:
- 5EMA / 9EMA
- 9EMA / 21EMA
- 9EMA / VWAP
✅ How to Use:
- Best on the Daily timeframe
- Use 5/9 as early signals, 9/21 for trend filtering, and 9/VWAP for volume-backed setups
- Turn on alerts to stay informed of key shifts without staring at charts
TP/SL Overlay with Volume/ATR TableThis is a Take Profit and Stop Loss indicator that plots the TP/SL levels, along with the Risk/Reward ratios on the chart similar to an auto fib overlay. These levels are ATR based and are dynamic, based on the current price. It also includes heads-up display that shows the Relative Volume, ATR and several TP levels. All settings and configurations are editable from the settings menu, as well. I created this to make it easier to estimate TP levels without having to pull up a calculator or the "Long" tool that TradingView provides. Hope you like it!
Topological Market Stress (TMS) - Quantum FabricTopological Market Stress (TMS) - Quantum Fabric
What Stresses The Market?
Topological Market Stress (TMS) represents a revolutionary fusion of algebraic topology and quantum field theory applied to financial markets. Unlike traditional indicators that analyze price movements linearly, TMS examines the underlying topological structure of market data—detecting when the very fabric of market relationships begins to tear, warp, or collapse.
Drawing inspiration from the ethereal beauty of quantum field visualizations and the mathematical elegance of topological spaces, this indicator transforms complex mathematical concepts into an intuitive, visually stunning interface that reveals hidden market dynamics invisible to conventional analysis.
Theoretical Foundation: Topology Meets Markets
Topological Holes in Market Structure
In algebraic topology, a "hole" represents a fundamental structural break—a place where the normal connectivity of space fails. In markets, these topological holes manifest as:
Correlation Breakdown: When traditional price-volume relationships collapse
Volatility Clustering Failure: When volatility patterns lose their predictive power
Microstructure Stress: When market efficiency mechanisms begin to fail
The Mathematics of Market Topology
TMS constructs a topological space from market data using three key components:
1. Correlation Topology
ρ(P,V) = correlation(price, volume, period)
Hole Formation = 1 - |ρ(P,V)|
When price and volume decorrelate, topological holes begin forming.
2. Volatility Clustering Topology
σ(t) = volatility at time t
Clustering = correlation(σ(t), σ(t-1), period)
Breakdown = 1 - |Clustering|
Volatility clustering breakdown indicates structural instability.
3. Market Efficiency Topology
Efficiency = |price - EMA(price)| / ATR
Measures how far price deviates from its efficient trajectory.
Multi-Scale Topological Analysis
Markets exist across multiple temporal scales simultaneously. TMS analyzes topology at three distinct scales:
Micro Scale (3-15 periods): Immediate structural changes, market microstructure stress
Meso Scale (10-50 periods): Trend-level topology, medium-term structural shifts
Macro Scale (50-200 periods): Long-term structural topology, regime-level changes
The final stress metric combines all scales:
Combined Stress = 0.3×Micro + 0.4×Meso + 0.3×Macro
How TMS Works
1. Topological Space Construction
Each market moment is embedded in a multi-dimensional topological space where:
- Price efficiency forms one dimension
- Correlation breakdown forms another
- Volatility clustering breakdown forms the third
2. Hole Detection Algorithm
The indicator continuously scans this topological space for:
Hole Formation: When stress exceeds the formation threshold
Hole Persistence: How long structural breaks maintain
Hole Collapse: Sudden topology restoration (regime shifts)
3. Quantum Visualization Engine
The visualization system translates topological mathematics into intuitive quantum field representations:
Stress Waves: Main line showing topological stress intensity
Quantum Glow: Surrounding field indicating stress energy
Fabric Integrity: Background showing structural health
Multi-Scale Rings: Orbital representations of different timeframes
4. Signal Generation

Capitulation ScoutCapitulation Scout - Description
Overview
The Capitulation Scout is a streamlined technical indicator designed to identify potential market reversals by spotting moments of "capitulation" – extreme fear ( bearish capitulation ) or euphoria ( bullish capitulation ). It combines two independent filter groups to provide reliable reversal signals: an Extremes Filter (RSI + Bollinger Bands) and a Confirmation Filter (Volume Spike + MA Deviation). The indicator dynamically adapts to the current chart timeframe, making it versatile for day traders and long-term investors alike.
How It Works
This indicator uses two filter groups to detect capitulation, which can be enabled or disabled individually:
1. Extremes Filter (RSI + Bollinger Bands) : Identifies overbought (default: RSI > 70) or oversold (default: RSI < 30) conditions combined with price breaking through the Bollinger Bands (default: 200-period, 2x multiplier), indicating an extreme price movement.
2. Confirmation Filter (Volume Spike + MA Deviation) : Requires both a significant volume increase (default: 2x the 20-period average volume on lower timeframes, dynamically adjusted on higher timeframes) and a significant price deviation from a moving average (default: 5% deviation from a 50-period SMA) to confirm the capitulation event.
A signal is generated if at least one filter is enabled and all enabled filters meet their respective conditions.
Signals
- Bearish Capitulation : Marked with a red downward triangle (customizable in the "Style" tab) above the candle. Occurs when the enabled filters detect a potential top, e.g., overbought RSI and price above the upper Bollinger Band (if Extremes Filter enabled), and/or a volume spike combined with a significant upward deviation from the MA (if Confirmation Filter enabled).
- Bullish Capitulation : Marked with a green upward triangle (customizable in the "Style" tab) below the candle. Occurs when the enabled filters detect a potential bottom, e.g., oversold RSI and price below the lower Bollinger Band (if Extremes Filter enabled), and/or a volume spike combined with a significant downward deviation from the MA (if Confirmation Filter enabled).
Note : At least one filter must be enabled to generate signals. If both filters are disabled, no signals will be shown.
How to Use
1. Add the Capitulation Scout to your chart.
2. Look for red downward triangles ( bearish capitulation ) at market tops or green upward triangles ( bullish capitulation ) at market bottoms as potential reversal signals.
3. Use the signals in conjunction with other technical analysis tools (e.g., support/resistance levels, trendlines) to confirm trades.
4. Set up alerts for bearish or bullish capitulation signals to get real-time notifications.
5. Adjust the settings to suit your trading style and timeframe. For smaller timeframes (e.g., 5M or 15M), consider reducing the Bollinger Bands length for more sensitivity.
Settings
- Extremes Filter Settings
- Use Extremes Filter (RSI + Bollinger Bands) : Enable/disable the RSI and Bollinger Bands filter (default: enabled).
- RSI Length : Period for RSI calculation (default: 14 periods, relative to the chart timeframe).
- RSI Overbought/Oversold Levels : Thresholds for overbought/oversold conditions (default: 70/30).
- Bollinger Bands Length/Multiplier : Settings for Bollinger Bands (default: 200 periods, 2x multiplier).
- Confirmation Filter Settings
- Use Confirmation Filter (Volume Spike + MA Deviation) : Enable/disable the combined Volume Spike and MA Deviation filter (default: enabled). When enabled, both a volume spike and a significant MA deviation are required to meet the filter condition.
- Volume Spike Threshold (Base Multiplier) : Multiplier for detecting volume spikes on lower timeframes (default: 2x the 20-period average). On higher timeframes (e.g., weekly or monthly), the threshold is dynamically reduced to be more sensitive (e.g., 1.5x on weekly, 1x on monthly).
- Moving Average Length : Period for the SMA (default: 50 periods, relative to the chart timeframe).
- MA Deviation Threshold (%) : Percentage deviation from the MA to consider the price stretched (default: 5%).
Features
- MA Deviation Filter Visualization : The moving average used for the MA deviation filter can be enabled in the "Style" tab under "MA for Deviation Filter (Optional)" and is displayed in blue by default. It is disabled by default and must be manually enabled in the "Style" tab. Its color, line width, and style can be customized in the "Style" tab.
- Customizable Visuals : In the "Style" tab, you can toggle the visibility of signal markers and customize their colors, sizes, and styles.
- Alerts : Set up alerts for bearish or bullish capitulation signals to get real-time notifications.
Notes
- The indicator automatically adapts to the current chart timeframe (e.g., 1M, 15M, 1H, 1D, etc.). On smaller timeframes, consider reducing the RSI Length, Bollinger Bands Length, and Volume Period for better sensitivity. For example, on a 5-minute chart, a Bollinger Bands Length of 200 covers 1,000 minutes (over 16 hours), which might be too long – try lowering it to 50 or 100.
- Capitulation events are generally more reliable on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H, 1D), but the indicator can be used on any timeframe with proper adjustments. On weekly or monthly timeframes, the volume spike threshold is dynamically reduced to detect capitulation events more effectively.
- You can enable any combination of filters to generate signals. For example, disabling the Extremes Filter and enabling only the Confirmation Filter will generate signals based solely on volume spikes combined with MA deviation.
- Always combine with other analysis methods to reduce false signals.
- Test the indicator on your preferred markets (stocks, ETFs, crypto, etc.) and tweak the settings as needed.
Example
The thumbnail shows the Capitulation Scout on a daily chart of ETHUSD on Coinbase. Two red downward triangles ( bearish capitulation ) marked a major local top in early 2024, and from there, the ETH price started to correct. Two green upward triangles ( bullish capitulation ) marked a major bottom in April 2025, followed by a significant rally.

VWAP Fibonacci S&R with Bell CurveThis indicator is a sophisticated trading tool that combines three powerful technical analysis concepts to identify high-probability trading opportunities. Let me break down how it works:
Core Components:
1. VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
Calculates the average price weighted by volume over a specified period
Acts as a dynamic support/resistance level that institutions often use
Can reset daily, weekly, or monthly depending on your trading timeframe
The yellow line on your chart represents the current VWAP
2. Bell Curve Probability Analysis
Measures how far the current price deviates from the VWAP in statistical terms
Calculates a Z-score (standard deviations away from the mean)
Creates probability bands around the VWAP based on price volatility
The theory: extreme deviations from VWAP tend to revert back to the mean
3. Fibonacci Retracement Levels
Uses recent highs and lows to calculate key Fibonacci levels (38.2%, 50%, 61.8%)
These levels often act as support and resistance zones
Combined with VWAP analysis for confluence trading
How the Signals Work:
BUY Signals (Green arrows below candles)
Generated when either condition is met:
Mean Reversion Buy: Price is below VWAP + high probability of reversion + extreme statistical deviation
Fibonacci Support Buy: Price is above VWAP + near key Fibonacci support levels (38.2% or 50%)
SELL Signals (Red arrows above candles)
Generated when either condition is met:
Mean Reversion Sell: Price is above VWAP + high probability of reversion + extreme statistical deviation
Fibonacci Resistance Sell: Price is below VWAP + near key Fibonacci resistance levels (61.8% or 50%)
Visual Elements
Yellow Line: Main VWAP
Blue Bands: Probability zones based on standard deviation
Orange/White/Purple Lines: Key Fibonacci levels (38.2%, 50%, 61.8%)
Yellow Background: High probability mean reversion zones
⚠ Symbol: Extreme deviation warning (Z-score > 2.5)
The Information Table
Shows real-time statistics:
VWAP: Current VWAP value
Distance: How far price is from VWAP (percentage)
Z-Score: Statistical measure of deviation (>2 is significant)
Reversion %: Probability of mean reversion
Fib 50%: Key Fibonacci midpoint level
Status: Current signal state
Trading Logic
The indicator works on the principle that:
Extreme deviations from VWAP are unsustainable and tend to revert
Fibonacci levels provide natural support/resistance zones
Volume confirmation ensures the move has institutional backing
Statistical probability helps time entries when odds are favorable
Best Use Cases
Scalping: Quick mean reversion trades when price gets too far from VWAP
Swing Trading: Using Fibonacci levels with VWAP for longer-term positions
Risk Management: Avoiding trades when probability is low
Confluence Trading: Waiting for multiple signals to align
Malama's Dashboard with HeikinMalama's Dashboard with Heikin is a comprehensive trading indicator designed to provide traders with a consolidated view of market sentiment across multiple technical indicators. It combines Ichimoku Cloud, RSI, ADX, Choppiness Index, volume analysis, momentum, divergence detection, and multi-timeframe (MTF) MACD and volume trends to generate a composite sentiment score. The indicator displays these metrics in a visually intuitive table, enabling traders to quickly assess market conditions and make informed decisions. Optionally, it supports Heikin Ashi candles to smooth price data and reduce noise, aiding in trend identification. The script solves the problem of information overload by presenting key indicators in a single, trader-friendly dashboard, reducing the need for multiple charts or indicators.
Originality and Usefulness
This script is a unique mashup of several well-known technical indicators, integrated into a cohesive dashboard with a composite sentiment score. Unlike standalone indicators like RSI or Ichimoku, this script synthesizes signals from Ichimoku Cloud, RSI, ADX, Choppiness, volume, momentum, divergence, and MTF analysis into a unified sentiment metric. The inclusion of Heikin Ashi candles as an optional input adds flexibility for traders preferring smoothed price action. The composite score, derived from weighted contributions of each indicator, provides a novel way to gauge overall market direction, which is not commonly found in public open-source scripts. While individual components like RSI or Ichimoku are widely available, the script’s originality lies in its integrated approach, clear table visualization, and customizable settings, making it a practical tool for traders seeking a holistic market view.
Detailed Methodology ("How It Works")
The script processes multiple technical indicators and aggregates their signals into a composite sentiment score, displayed in a table. Below is a breakdown of its core components and logic:
Heikin Ashi Candles:
Logic: Optionally applies Heikin Ashi calculations to smooth price data. Heikin Ashi candles are computed using formulas for open, high, low, and close prices, reducing market noise and emphasizing trends.
Usage: When enabled, all subsequent calculations (Ichimoku, RSI, ADX, etc.) use Heikin Ashi prices instead of regular OHLC data, potentially improving trend clarity.
Ichimoku Cloud:
Logic: Calculates the Conversion Line (9-period high/low average), Base Line (26-period high/low average), Leading Span A (average of Conversion and Base Lines), and Leading Span B (52-period high/low average).
Signals: Bullish if the close price is above both Leading Spans; bearish if below; neutral otherwise.
Average Directional Index (ADX):
Logic: Computes ADX using a 14-period (default) directional movement index, measuring trend strength. PlusDI and MinusDI are calculated from price movements, and ADX is derived from their difference.
Signals: Bullish if PlusDI > MinusDI; bearish otherwise. ADX value indicates trend strength but is not used directly in sentiment scoring.
Relative Strength Index (RSI):
Logic: Calculates RSI over a 21-period (default) using the closing price. Overbought (>75) and oversold (<25) levels are user-defined.
Signals: Bullish if RSI > 50; bearish if RSI < 50. Overbought/oversold conditions are displayed but not used in the composite score.
Momentum:
Logic: Measures the difference between the current close and the close 10 periods ago (default).
Signals: Bullish if momentum > 0; bearish if < 0; neutral if 0.
Choppiness Index:
Logic: Calculates choppiness over a 14-period (default) using ATR and price range, normalized to a 0–100 scale. Values >61.8 indicate a sideways market; <38.2 indicate a trending market.
Signals: Bullish if choppiness < 38.2; bearish otherwise.
Volume Analysis:
Logic: Compares current volume to a 21-period (default) simple moving average (SMA). Bullish or bearish pressure is determined by whether the close is above or below the open.
Signals: Bullish if volume > 1.2x SMA and bullish pressure dominates; bearish if bearish pressure dominates; neutral otherwise.
Divergence Detection:
Logic: Identifies RSI divergences over a 5-period lookback. A bullish divergence occurs when price makes a lower low, but RSI makes a higher low; bearish divergence is the opposite.
Signals: Bullish or bearish based on divergence detection; neutral if no divergence.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Analysis:
Logic: Retrieves daily MACD (12, 26, 9) and volume SMA (21-period) from a higher timeframe. MACD is bullish if the MACD line > signal line; volume is bullish if current volume > daily SMA.
Signals: Bullish or bearish based on MACD and volume trends.
Composite Sentiment Score:
Logic: Aggregates signals from Ichimoku (±2), RSI (±1), ADX (±1), momentum (±1), choppiness (±1), divergence (±1), MTF MACD (±1), and MTF volume (±1). The score ranges from -8 to +8.
Signals: Bullish if score > 0; bearish if < 0; neutral if 0.
Alert Condition:
Triggers an alert when the composite sentiment flips (e.g., from bullish to bearish).
Strategy Results and Risk Management
This script is an indicator, not a strategy, and does not include backtesting or automated trade signals. However, the composite sentiment score can guide trading decisions. Assumptions for practical use include:
Commission and Slippage: Traders should account for realistic trading costs (e.g., 0.1% per trade) when acting on signals, though the script does not model these.
Risk Limits: Traders are advised to risk 5–10% of equity per trade, depending on their strategy and the strength of the composite score (e.g., higher scores may justify larger positions).
Trade Frequency: The script’s signals are based on multiple indicators, ensuring sufficient trade opportunities across trending and ranging markets.
Customization: Traders can adjust risk by modifying input parameters (e.g., RSI overbought/oversold levels or lookback periods) to align with their risk tolerance. For example, tightening RSI thresholds may reduce signal frequency but increase precision.
User Settings and Customization
The script offers several user-configurable inputs, allowing traders to tailor its behavior:
Use Heikin Ashi Candles (Boolean, default: false): Enables/disables Heikin Ashi smoothing for all calculations, affecting trend clarity.
ADX Length (Integer, default: 14, min: 1): Sets the period for ADX calculations, influencing trend strength sensitivity.
RSI Length (Integer, default: 21, min: 1): Adjusts RSI calculation period, impacting overbought/oversold detection.
RSI Overbought Level (Integer, default: 75, min: 1): Sets the RSI overbought threshold.
RSI Oversold Level (Integer, default: 25, min: 1): Sets the RSI oversold threshold.
Volatility Length (Integer, default: 21, min: 1): Controls the ATR period for volatility (used in Choppiness).
Volume MA Length (Integer, default: 21, min: 1): Sets the SMA period for volume analysis.
Momentum Length (Integer, default: 10, min: 1): Defines the lookback for momentum calculations.
Choppiness Length (Integer, default: 14, min: 1): Sets the period for Choppiness Index calculations.
These settings allow traders to adjust the indicator’s sensitivity to market conditions. For example, shorter RSI or ADX periods increase responsiveness but may generate more noise, while longer periods smooth signals but may lag.
Visualizations and Chart Setup
The script plots a table in the top-right corner of the chart, summarizing the following:
Header: Displays “MALAMA’S DASHBOARD” in white text on a black background.
Indicator Rows: Each row corresponds to an indicator (Ichimoku, RSI, ADX, Choppiness, Volume, Momentum, Divergence, MTF MACD, MTF Volume, Composite).

Spectral Order Flow Resonance (SOFR) Spectral Order Flow Resonance (SOFR)
See the Market’s Hidden Rhythms—Trade the Resonance, Not the Noise!
The Spectral Order Flow Resonance (SOFR) is a next-generation tool for traders who want to go beyond price and volume, tapping into the underlying “frequency signature” of order flow itself. Instead of chasing lagging signals or reacting to surface-level volatility, SOFR lets you visualize and quantify the real-time resonance of market activity—helping you spot when the crowd is in sync, and when the regime is about to shift.
What Makes SOFR Unique?
Not Just Another Oscillator:
SOFR doesn’t just measure momentum or volume. It applies spectral analysis (using Fast Fourier Transform) to normalized order flow, extracting the dominant cycles and their resonance strength. This reveals when the market is harmonizing around key frequencies—often the precursor to major moves.
Regime Detection, Not Guesswork:
By tracking harmonic alignment and phase coherence across multiple Fibonacci-based frequencies, SOFR identifies when the market is entering a bullish, bearish, or neutral resonance regime. This is visualized with a dynamic dashboard and info line, so you always know the current state at a glance.
Dynamic Dashboard:
The on-chart dashboard color-codes each key metric—regime, dominant frequency, harmonic alignment, phase coherence, and energy concentration—so you can instantly gauge the strength and direction of the current resonance. No more guesswork or clutter.
Universal Application:
Works on any asset, any timeframe, and in any market—futures, stocks, crypto, forex. If there’s order flow, SOFR can reveal its hidden structure.
How Does It Work?
Order Flow Normalization:
SOFR calculates the net buying/selling pressure and normalizes it using a rolling mean and standard deviation, making the signal robust across assets and timeframes.
Spectral Analysis:
The script applies FFT to the normalized order flow, extracting the magnitude and phase of several key frequencies (typically Fibonacci numbers). This allows you to see which cycles are currently dominating the market.
Resonance & Regime Logic:
When multiple frequencies align and exceed a dynamic resonance threshold, and phase coherence is high, SOFR detects a “resonance regime”—bullish, bearish, or neutral. This is when the market is most likely to experience a strong, sustained move.
Visual Clarity:
The indicator plots each frequency’s magnitude, highlights the dominant one, and provides a real-time dashboard with color-coded metrics for instant decision-making.
SOFR Dashboard Metrics Explained
Regime:
What it means: The current “state” of the market as detected by SOFR—Bullish, Bearish, or Neutral.
Why it matters: The regime tells you whether the market’s order flow is resonating in a way that favors upward moves (Bullish), downward moves (Bearish), or is out of sync (Neutral). This helps you align your trades with the prevailing market force, or stand aside when there’s no clear edge.
Dominant Freq:
What it means: The most powerful frequency (cycle length, in bars) currently detected in the order flow.
Why it matters: Markets often move in cycles. The dominant frequency shows which cycle is currently driving price action, helping you time entries and exits with the market’s “heartbeat.”
Harmonic Align:
What it means: The number of key frequencies (out of 3) that are currently in resonance (above threshold).
Why it matters: When multiple frequencies align, it signals that different groups of traders (with different time horizons) are acting in concert. This increases the probability of a strong, sustained move.
Phase Coh.:
What it means: A measure (0–100%) of how “in sync” the phases of the key frequencies are.
Why it matters: High phase coherence means the market’s cycles are reinforcing each other, not cancelling out. This is a classic signature of trending or explosive moves.
Energy Conc.:
What it means: The concentration of spectral energy in the dominant frequency, relative to the average.
Why it matters: High energy concentration means the market’s activity is focused in one cycle, increasing the odds of a decisive move. Low concentration means the market is scattered and less predictable.
How to Use
Bullish Regime:
When the dashboard shows a green regime and high harmonic alignment, the market is in a bullish resonance—look for long opportunities or trend continuations.
Bearish Regime:
When the regime is red and alignment is high, the market is in a bearish resonance—look for short opportunities or trend continuations.
Neutral Regime:
When the regime is gray or alignment is low, the market is out of sync—consider waiting for clearer signals or using other tools.
Combine with Your Strategy:
Use SOFR as a confirmation tool, a filter for trend/range conditions, or as a standalone regime detector. The dashboard’s color-coded metrics help you instantly spot when the market is entering or exiting resonance.
Inputs Explained
FFT Window Length :
Controls the number of bars used for spectral analysis. Higher values smooth the signal, lower values make it more sensitive.
Order Flow Period:
Sets the lookback for normalizing order flow. Shorter periods react faster, longer periods are smoother.
Fibonacci Frequencies:
Choose which cycles to analyze. Default values (5, 8, 13) capture common market rhythms.
Resonance Threshold:
Sets how strong a frequency’s signal must be to count as “in resonance.” Lower for more signals, higher for stricter filtering.
Signal Smoothing & Amplify:
Fine-tune the display for your chart and asset.
Dashboard & Info Line Toggles:
Show or hide the on-chart dashboard and info line as needed.
Why This Matters
Most indicators show you what just happened. SOFR shows you when the market is entering a state of resonance—when crowd behavior is most likely to produce powerful, sustained moves. By visualizing the hidden structure of order flow, you gain a tactical edge over traders who only see the surface.
