MMM @MaxMaserati 2.0MMM @MaxMaserati 2.0 - TradingView Indicator
The Backbone of the Max Maserati Method
The MMM @MaxMaserati 2.0 indicator is the core of the proprietary Max Maserati Method (MMM), a trading system designed to decode institutional price action. It integrates candle bias analysis, market structure identification, volume-based signals, and precise entry zones to align traders with smart money.
Core Components of the MMM System
1. Six Core Candle Classifications
Master these patterns to reveal institutional behavior:
Bullish Body Close: Closes above previous high, signaling strong buying.
Bearish Body Close: Closes below previous low, indicating intense selling.
Bullish Affinity: High tests previous low, closes within range, showing hidden bullish strength.
Bearish Affinity: Low tests previous high, closes within range, reflecting bearish pressure.
Seek & Destroy: Breaks both previous high/low, closes inside, direction depends on close.
Close Inside: High/low within previous range, bias based on close.
2. Plus/Minus Strength System
Quantifies candle conviction:
Bullish Strength: Low to close distance.
Bearish Strength: High to close distance.
Plus (+): Dominant strength signals strong follow-through.
Minus (-): Balanced strengths suggest caution.
3. PO4 Candles (Power of OHLC (4))
Analyzes OHLC for body-closed candles after swing high/low fractals:
C2: Body close above high/below low post fractal with strength conditions.
C3: Stronger body close with pronounced low/high breakouts.
C4: Body close which show strength and might trigger a BeB/BuB
Visualization: Green (bullish), purple (bearish) bars; triangle markers for fractals.
4. MC2 (High Volume Reversal Candles)
High buy/sell volume candles reversed by opposing volume:
Bullish MC2: Buy volume flipped by sell volume, signaling exhaustion.
Bearish MC2: Sell volume flipped by buy volume, indicating reversal.
Visualization: Dark green (bullish), dark red (bearish) bars.
5. MMM Blocks (eBlocks and iBlocks)
Marks institutional order blocks:
External Blocks (eBlocks): At market structure changes (MSC), labeled BuB/BeB.
Internal Blocks (iBlocks): Within trends, labeled L/S.
Volume: Normalized with indicators (🔥 high, ↑ above average, ↓ low).
Filters: Discount (0-50), premium (50-100), extreme (0-20, 80-100), mid-range (20-50, 50-80).
6. Entry Blocks - Specific Entry Areas
Entry Blocks are precise zones for framing trades based on the MMM system, triggered post-MSC to capitalize on institutional momentum:
Purpose: Pinpoint high-probability entry areas following a Market Structure Change (MSC), aligning with smart money direction.
Formation:
MMM Entry Block Long: Forms after a bullish MSC (BuB), typically at the swing low (e.g., lowerValueMSC) of the fractal pattern, marking a long entry zone.
MMM Entry Block Short: Forms after a bearish MSC (BeB), typically at the swing high (e.g., upperValueMSC), marking a short entry zone.
Styles :
Close-to-Swing High/Low: Box drawn from the candle’s close to the swing high/low level, emphasizing the fractal pivot.
High/Low-to-Close: Box drawn from the candle’s high/low to its close, capturing the full price action range.
Visualization:
Labeled “MMM Entry Block Long” (cyan background/border) or “Short” (pink background/border).
Includes a dashed midline for reference.
Volume displayed if enabled, normalized with markers (🔥 >150%, ⚡ >120%, ❄️ <70%).
Behavior:
Deletes when price touches the level (On Level Touch) or closes beyond it (On Candle Close)
Limited to a configurable number ( default 5) to avoid clutter.
Trade Framing:
Entry: Enter within the eBreak box, ideally on a pullback or confirmation candle aligning with MMM bias (e.g., Bullish Body Close or Affinity).
Stop-Loss: Placed below the eBreak low (bullish) or above the high (bearish), leveraging the swing level as support/resistance.
Take-Profit: Targets higher timeframe high (bullish) or low (bearish), with ratio (default 2.0) for risk-reward.
MMM Integration: Use candle bias (Plus/Minus), PO4 signals, and MMPD consensus to confirm entry direction and strength.
Significance: eBreaks frame trades by isolating institutional entry points post-MSC, reducing noise and enhancing precision.
7. Market Structure Change (MSC)
Tracks structure shifts:
Detection: Fractal highs/lows with adjustable candle count.
Visualization: Green (BuB), red (BeB) lines/labels; numbered breaks (Bub1/Beb1).
Counter: Tracks consecutive MSCs for trend strength.
8. MMPD (Market Momentum Price Delivery)
Analyzes momentum/trend:
Conditions: Red (bearish), Green (bullish), Pink (modifying bearish), Pale Green (modifying bullish).
Traps: Flags bullish/bearish traps when MMPD conflicts with body close.
Metrics: SuperMaxTrend, momentum (K/D), MMPD level.
Consensus: Rated signals (e.g., “Very Strong Buy ★★★★★”).
9. Trade and Risk Management
Disciplined trading:
Entry Visualization: Entry, stop-loss, take-profit lines/labels with customizable risk (riskAmount, default $50) and reward (ratio).
Behavior: Shows last/all entries, removes on MSC shift or breach.
Text Size: Tiny, Small, Normal.

TrueDelta Candles📖 Description:
TrueDelta Candles is a precision tool for traders who want deeper insight into market sentiment through real-time volume delta analysis. Rather than using traditional volume bars, this indicator colors each chart candle based on the net volume delta—the difference between buying and selling volume—fetched from a lower timeframe.
🚀 Key Features:
🎯 Real Candle Coloring: Colors actual price candles based on delta volume—green (buying pressure), red (selling pressure).
⏱️ Multi-Timeframe Volume Analysis: Automatically selects the appropriate lower timeframe for better delta approximation, or lets you set a custom one.
🔬 Order Flow Insight: Visualizes the tug-of-war between buyers and sellers within each candle.
⚡ Lightweight & Non-Intrusive: No clutter—just clean color overlays on your chart candles.
🔄 Live Updating: Responds instantly as new data arrives.
🧠 Ideal For:
Intraday and scalping strategies.
Momentum and breakout traders.
Order flow enthusiasts looking for a visual edge.
🛠️ How It Works:
Behind the scenes, the script uses ta.requestVolumeDelta() to retrieve granular buy/sell volume data from a lower timeframe. The net delta volume then determines whether the candle is colored green (positive delta) or red (negative delta). This makes it easy to spot when market pressure aligns or diverges from price action.
⚙️ Settings:
Use Custom Timeframe: Manually select the lower timeframe used for delta calculation (e.g., "1", "5").
Default Auto Mode: Automatically adapts to your current chart resolution for optimal data balance.
If you're serious about understanding the real dynamics behind every candle, TrueDelta Candles adds an essential layer of volume-based context that price alone can't offer.
Sideways + Buy + Sell DetectionSure! Here's the plain-language description of your script without using any code.
---
### 📘 **Script Purpose**
This script is designed to detect three different types of market conditions:
1. **Sideways (range-bound) market** — useful for non-directional strategies like strangles or straddles.
2. **Bullish trend** — provides a signal to consider buying.
3. **Bearish trend** — provides a signal to consider selling.
---
### 🔧 **Indicators Used**
* **RSI (Relative Strength Index)**: Measures market momentum. It's used to determine whether the market is in a bullish, bearish, or neutral zone.
* **ADX (Average Directional Index)** along with **DI+ and DI-**: Measures the strength and direction of a trend.
* **MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)**: Confirms momentum and trend direction based on moving averages.
---
### 🟪 **Sideways Market Signal**
A sideways (non-trending) signal is shown when:
* RSI indicates the market is neither overbought nor oversold (in the middle range).
* ADX shows weak trend strength.
* The ADX value is lower than both DI+ and DI-, suggesting indecision or lack of clear trend.
A purple label appears below the bar when this condition is met.
---
### 🟩 **Buy Signal**
A buy signal is generated when:
* RSI shows strong upward momentum.
* ADX confirms there is a strong trend.
* MACD confirms bullish conditions with both the MACD and signal lines above zero and in the correct crossover direction.
A green label appears below the bar when these bullish conditions align.
---
### 🟥 **Sell Signal**
A sell signal appears when:
* RSI shows strong downward momentum.
* ADX confirms a strong trend.
* MACD confirms bearish conditions, with both MACD and signal lines below zero and in the correct crossover direction.
A red label appears — currently also plotted below the bar (which you may want to move above the bar for better clarity).
---
### ✅ **Use Case**
This script is suitable for:
* Deciding when to deploy **strangle/straddle** strategies in sideways markets.
* Identifying strong **bullish or bearish trends** for directional trades.
* Filtering out weak or indecisive conditions.

The progression from squeeze to breakout, supported by volume trend confirmation, offers a systematic approach to identifying trading opportunities.
The script combines multiple technical analysis approaches into a comprehensive dashboard that helps traders make informed decisions by identifying high-probability setups while filtering out noise through its sophisticated confirmation requirements. It combines multiple technical analysis approaches into an integrated visual system that helps traders identify potential trading opportunities while filtering out false signals.
Core Features
1. Volume Analysis Dashboard
The indicator displays various volume-related metrics in customizable tables:
AVOL (After Hours + Pre-Market Volume): Shows extended hours volume as a percentage of the 21-day average volume with color coding for buying/selling pressure. Green indicates buying pressure and red indicates selling pressure.
Volume Metrics: Includes regular volume (VOL), dollar volume ($VOL), relative volume compared to 21-day average (RVOL), and relative volume compared to 90-day average (RVOL90D).
Pre-Market Data: Optional display of pre-market volume (PVOL), pre-market dollar volume (P$VOL), pre-market relative volume (PRVOL), and pre-market price change percentage (PCHG%).
2. Enhanced Volume Trend (VTR) Analysis
The Volume Trend indicator uses adaptive analysis to evaluate buying and selling pressure, combining multiple factors:
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) components
Volume-to-SMA (Simple Moving Average) ratio
Price direction and market conditions
Volume change rates and momentum
EMA (Exponential Moving Average) alignment and crossovers
Volatility filtering
VTR Visual Indicators
The VTR score ranges from 0-100, with values above 50 indicating bullish conditions and below 50 indicating bearish conditions. This is visually represented by colored circles:
"●" (Filled Circle):
Green: Strong bullish trend (VTR ≥ 80)
Red: Strong bearish trend (VTR ≤ 20)
"◯" (Hollow Circle):
Green: Moderate bullish trend (VTR 65-79)
Red: Moderate bearish trend (VTR 21-35)
"·" (Small Dot):
Green: Weak bullish trend (VTR 55-64)
Red: Weak bearish trend (VTR 36-45)
"○" (Medium Hollow Circle): Neutral conditions (VTR 46-54), shown in gray
In "Both" display mode, the VTR shows both the numerical score (0-100) alongside the appropriate circle symbol.
Enhanced VTR Settings
The Enhanced Volume Trend component offers several advanced customization options:
Adaptive Volume Analysis (volTrendAdaptive):
When enabled, dynamically adjusts volume thresholds based on recent market volatility
Higher volatility periods require proportionally higher volume to generate significant signals
Helps prevent false signals during highly volatile markets
Keep enabled for most trading conditions, especially in volatile markets
Speed of Change Weight (volTrendSpeedWeight, range 0-1):
Controls emphasis on volume acceleration/deceleration rather than absolute levels
Higher values (0.7-1.0): More responsive to new volume trends, better for momentum trading
Lower values (0.2-0.5): Less responsive, better for trend following
Helps identify early volume trends before they fully develop
Momentum Period (volTrendMomentumPeriod, range 2-10):
Defines lookback period for volume change rate calculations
Lower values (2-3): More responsive to recent changes, better for short timeframes
Higher values (7-10): Smoother, better for daily/weekly charts
Directly affects how quickly the indicator responds to new volume patterns
Volatility Filter (volTrendVolatilityFilter):
Adjusts significance of volume by factoring in current price volatility
High volume during high volatility receives less weight
High volume during low volatility receives more weight
Helps distinguish between genuine volume-driven moves and volatility-driven moves
EMA Alignment Weight (volTrendEmaWeight, range 0-1):
Controls importance of EMA alignments in final VTR calculation
Analyzes multiple EMA relationships (5, 10, 21 period)
Higher values (0.7-1.0): Greater emphasis on trend structure
Lower values (0.2-0.5): More focus on pure volume patterns
Display Mode (volTrendDisplayMode):
"Value": Shows only numerical score (0-100)
"Strength": Shows only symbolic representation
"Both": Shows numerical score and symbol together
3. Bollinger Band Squeeze Detection (SQZ)
The BB Squeeze indicator identifies periods of low volatility when Bollinger Bands contract inside Keltner Channels, often preceding significant price movements.
SQZ Visual Indicators
"●" (Filled Circle): Strong squeeze - high probability setup for an impending breakout
Green: Strong squeeze with bullish bias (likely upward breakout)
Red: Strong squeeze with bearish bias (likely downward breakout)
Orange: Strong squeeze with unclear direction
"◯" (Hollow Circle): Moderate squeeze - medium probability setup
Green: With bullish EMA alignment
Red: With bearish EMA alignment
Orange: Without clear directional bias
"-" (Dash): Gray dash indicates no squeeze condition (normal volatility)
The script identifies squeeze conditions through multiple methods:
Bollinger Bands contracting inside Keltner Channels
BB width falling to bottom 20% of recent range (BB width percentile)
Very narrow Keltner Channel (less than 5% of basis price)
Tracking squeeze duration in consecutive bars
Different squeeze strengths are detected:
Strong Squeeze: BB inside KC with tight BB width and narrow KC
Moderate Squeeze: BB inside KC with either tight BB width or narrow KC
No Squeeze: Normal market conditions
4. Breakout Detection System
The script includes two breakout indicators working in sequence:
4.1 Pre-Breakout (PBK) Indicator
Detects potential upcoming breakouts by analyzing multiple factors:
Squeeze conditions lasting 2-3 bars or more
Significant price ranges
Strong volume confirmation
EMA/MACD crossovers
Consistent price direction
PBK Visual Indicators
"●" (Filled Circle): Detected pre-breakout condition
Green: Likely upward breakout (bullish)
Red: Likely downward breakout (bearish)
Orange: Direction not yet clear, but breakout likely
"-" (Dash): Gray dash indicates no pre-breakout condition
The PBK uses sophisticated conditions to reduce false signals including minimum squeeze length, significant price movement, and technical confirmations.
4.2 Breakout (BK) Indicator
Confirms actual breakouts in progress by identifying:
End of squeeze or strong expansion of Bollinger Bands
Volume expansion
Price moving outside Bollinger Bands
EMA crossovers with volume confirmation
MACD crossovers with significant price range
BK Visual Indicators
"●" (Filled Circle): Confirmed breakout in progress
Green: Upward breakout (bullish)
Red: Downward breakout (bearish)
Orange: Unusual breakout pattern without clear direction
"◆" (Diamond): Special breakout conditions (meets some but not all criteria)
"-" (Dash): Gray dash indicates no breakout detected
The BK indicator uses advanced filters for confirmation:
Requires consecutive breakout signals to reduce false positives
Strong volume confirmation requirements (40% above average)
Significant price movement thresholds
Consistency checks between price action and indicators
5. Market Metrics and Analysis
Price Change Percentage (CHG%)
Displays the current percentage change relative to the previous day's close, color-coded green for positive changes and red for negative changes.
Average Daily Range (ADR%)
Calculates the average daily percentage range over a specified period (default 20 days), helping traders gauge volatility and set appropriate price targets.
Average True Range (ATR)
Shows the Average True Range value, a volatility indicator developed by J. Welles Wilder that measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of an asset price for that period.
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
Displays the standard 14-period RSI, a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements on a scale from 0 to 100.
6. External Market Indicators
QQQ Change
Shows the percentage change in the Invesco QQQ Trust (tracking the Nasdaq-100 Index), useful for understanding broader tech market trends.
UVIX Change
Displays the percentage change in UVIX, a volatility index, providing insight into market fear and potential hedging activity.
BTC-USD
Shows the current Bitcoin price from Coinbase, useful for traders monitoring crypto correlation with equities.
Market Breadth (BRD)

7. Session Analysis and Volume Direction
Session Detection
The script accurately identifies different market sessions:
Pre-market: 4:00 AM to 9:30 AM
Regular market: 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM
After-hours: 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM
Closed: Outside trading hours
This detection works on any timeframe through careful calculation of current time in seconds.
Buy/Sell Volume Direction
The script analyzes buying and selling pressure by:
Counting up volume when close > open
Counting down volume when close < open
Tracking accumulated volume within the day
Calculating intraday pressure (up volume minus down volume)
Enhanced AVOL Calculation
The improved AVOL calculation works in all timeframes by:
Estimating typical pre-market and after-hours volume percentages
Combining yesterday's after-hours with today's pre-market volume
Calculating this as a percentage of the 21-day average volume
Determining buying/selling pressure by analyzing after-hours and pre-market price changes
Color-coding results: green for buying pressure, red for selling pressure
This calculation is particularly valuable because it works consistently across any timeframe.
Customization Options

MACD Weight: Controls how much influence MACD has on the volume trend score (default 0.3)
These settings allow traders to fine-tune how momentum is factored into the volume trend analysis.
Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channel Settings
The Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels used for squeeze detection have preset (hidden) parameters:
BB Length: 20 periods
BB Multiplier: 2.0 standard deviations
Keltner Length: 20 periods
Keltner Multiplier: 1.5 ATR
These settings follow standard practice for squeeze detection while maintaining simplicity in the user interface.
Practical Trading Applications
Complete Trading Strategies
1. Squeeze Breakout Strategy
This strategy combines multiple components of the indicator:
Wait for a strong squeeze (SQZ showing ●)
Look for pre-breakout confirmation (PBK showing ● in green or red)
Enter when breakout is confirmed (BK showing ● in same direction)
Use VTR to confirm volume supports the move (VTR ≥ 65 for bullish or ≤ 35 for bearish)
Set profit targets based on ADR (Average Daily Range)
Exit when VTR begins to weaken or changes direction
2. Volume Divergence Strategy
This strategy focuses on the volume trend relative to price:
Identify when price makes a new high but VTR fails to confirm (divergence)
Look for VTR to show weakening trend (● changing to ◯ or ·)
Prepare for potential reversal when SQZ begins to form
Enter counter-trend position when PBK confirms reversal direction
Use external indicators (QQQ, BTC, Breadth) to confirm broader market support
3. Pre-Market Edge Strategy
This strategy leverages pre-market data:
Monitor AVOL for unusual pre-market activity (significantly above 100%)
Check pre-market price change direction (PCHG%)
Enter position at market open if VTR confirms direction
Use SQZ to determine if volatility is likely to expand
Exit based on RVOL declining or price reaching +/- ADR for the day
Market Context Integration
The indicator provides valuable context for trading decisions:
QQQ change shows tech market direction
BTC price shows crypto market correlation
UVIX change indicates volatility expectations
Breadth measurement shows market internals
This context helps traders avoid fighting the broader market and align trades with overall market direction.
Timeframe Optimization
The indicator is designed to work across different timeframes:
For day trading: Focus on AVOL, VTR, PBK/BK, and use shorter momentum periods
For swing trading: Focus on SQZ duration, VTR strength, and broader market indicators
For position trading: Focus on larger VTR trends and use EMA alignment weight
Advanced Analytical Components
Enhanced Volume Trend Score Calculation
The VTR score calculation is sophisticated, with the base score starting at 50 and adjusting for:
Price direction (up/down)
Volume relative to average (high/normal/low)
Volume acceleration/deceleration
Market conditions (bull/bear)
Additional factors are then applied, including:
MACD influence weighted by strength and direction
Volume change rate influence (speed)
Price/volume divergence effects
EMA alignment scores
Volatility adjustments
Breakout strength factors
Price action confirmations
The final score is clamped between 0-100, with values above 50 indicating bullish conditions and below 50 indicating bearish conditions.
Anti-False Signal Filters
The indicator employs multiple techniques to reduce false signals:
Requiring significant price range (minimum percentage movement)
Demanding strong volume confirmation (significantly above average)
Checking for consistent direction across multiple indicators
Requiring prior bar consistency (consecutive bars moving in same direction)
Counting consecutive signals to filter out noise
These filters help eliminate noise and focus on high-probability setups.
MACD Enhancement and Integration
The indicator enhances standard MACD analysis:
Calculating MACD relative strength compared to recent history
Normalizing MACD slope relative to volatility
Detecting MACD acceleration for stronger signals
Integrating MACD crossovers with other confirmation factors
EMA Analysis System
The indicator uses a comprehensive EMA analysis system:
Calculating multiple EMAs (5, 10, 21 periods)
Detecting golden cross (10 EMA crosses above 21 EMA)
Detecting death cross (10 EMA crosses below 21 EMA)
Assessing price position relative to EMAs
Measuring EMA separation percentage
Recent Enhancements and Evolution
Version 5.2 includes several improvements:
Enhanced AVOL to show buying/selling direction through color coding
Improved VTR with adaptive analysis based on market conditions
AVOL display now works in all timeframes through sophisticated estimation
Removed animal symbols and streamlined code with bright colors for better visibility

[NIC] Volatility Anomaly Indicator (Inspired by Jeff Augen)Volatility Anomaly Indicator (Inspired by Jeff Augen)
The Volatility Anomaly Indicator, inspired by Jeff Augen’s The Volatility Edge in Options Trading, helps traders spot price distortions by analyzing volatility imbalances. It compares short-term (10-day) and long-term (30-day) historical volatility (HV), plotting the ratio in a subgraph with clusters of dots to highlight anomalies—red for volatility spikes (potential sells) and green for calm periods (potential buys).
Originality: This indicator uniquely adapts Augen’s volatility concepts into a visual tool, focusing on relative volatility distortions rather than absolute levels, making it ideal for volatile assets like $TQQQ.
Features:
Calculates the ratio of short-term to long-term volatility.
Detects spikes (ratio > 1.5) and calm periods (ratio < 0.67) with customizable thresholds.
Plots volatility ratio as a blue line, with red/green dots for anomalies.
Includes optional buy/sell signals on the main chart (if overlay is enabled).
How It Works
The indicator computes historical volatility using log returns, then calculates the short-term to long-term volatility ratio. Spikes and calm periods are marked with dots in the subgraph, and threshold lines (1.5 and 0.67) provide context. Buy signals (green triangles) trigger during calm periods, and sell signals (red triangles) during spikes.
How to Use
Apply to any chart (e.g., NASDAQ:TQQQ daily).
Adjust inputs: Short Volatility Period (10), Long Volatility Period (30), Volatility Spike Threshold (1.5).
Watch for red dot clusters (spikes, potential sells) and green dot clusters (calm, potential buys).
Combine with price action or RSI for confirmation.
Why Use This Indicator?
Focuses on volatility-driven price inefficiencies.
Clear visualization with dot clusters.
Customizable for different assets and timeframes.
Limitations
Not a standalone system; requires confirmation.
May give false signals in choppy markets.

Big Whale Finder PROBig Whale Finder PRO
The Big Whale Finder PRO is an advanced technical indicator designed to detect and analyze the footprints of institutional traders (commonly referred to as "whales") in financial markets. Based on multiple proprietary detection algorithms, this indicator identifies distinct patterns of accumulation and distribution that typically occur when large market participants execute significant orders.
Theoretical Framework
The indicator builds upon established market microstructure theories and empirical research on institutional trading behavior. As Kyle (1985) demonstrated in his seminal work on market microstructure, informed traders with large positions tend to execute their orders strategically to minimize market impact. This often results in specific volume and price action patterns that the Big Whale Finder PRO is designed to detect.
Key Feature Enhancements
1. Volume Analysis Refinement
The indicator implements a dual-threshold approach to volume analysis based on research by Easley et al. (2012) on volume-based informed trading metrics. The normal threshold identifies routine institutional activity, while the extreme threshold flags exceptional events that often precede significant market moves.
2. Wickbody Ratio Analysis
Drawing from Cao et al. (2021) research on price formation and order flow imbalance, the indicator incorporates wick-to-body ratio analysis to detect potential order absorption and iceberg orders. High wick-to-body ratios often indicate hidden liquidity and resistance/support levels maintained by large players.
3. BWF-Index (Proprietary Metric)
The BWF-Index is a novel quantitative measure that combines volume anomalies, price stagnation, and candle morphology into a single metric. This approach draws from Harris's (2003) work on trading and exchanges, which suggests that institutional activity often manifests through multiple simultaneous market microstructure anomalies.
4. Zone Tracking System
Based on Wyckoff Accumulation/Distribution methodology and modern zone detection algorithms, the indicator establishes and tracks zones where institutional activity has occurred. This feature enables traders to identify potential support/resistance areas where large players have previously shown interest.
5. Trend Integration
Following Lo and MacKinlay's (1988) work on market efficiency and technical analysis, the indicator incorporates trend analysis through dual EMA comparison, providing context for volume and price patterns.
Labels and Signals Explanation
The indicator uses a system of labels to mark significant events on the chart:
🐋 (Whale Symbol): Indicates extreme volume activity that significantly exceeds normal market participation. This is often a sign of major institutional involvement and frequently precedes significant price moves. The presence of this label suggests heightened attention is warranted as a potential trend reversal or acceleration may be imminent.
A (Accumulation): Marks periods where large players are likely accumulating positions. This is characterized by high volume, minimal price movement upward, and stronger support at the lower end of the candle (larger lower wicks). Accumulation zones often form bases for future upward price movements. This pattern frequently occurs at the end of downtrends or during consolidation phases before uptrends.
D (Distribution): Identifies periods where large players are likely distributing (selling) their positions. This pattern shows high volume, minimal downward price movement, and stronger resistance at the upper end of the candle (larger upper wicks). Distribution zones often form tops before downward price movements. This pattern typically appears at the end of uptrends or during consolidation phases before downtrends.
ICE (Iceberg Order): Flags the potential presence of iceberg orders, where large orders are split into smaller visible portions to hide the true size. These are characterized by unusual wick-to-body ratios with high volume. Iceberg orders often indicate price levels that large institutions consider significant and may act as strong support or resistance areas.
Information Panel Interpretation
The information panel provides real-time analysis of market conditions:
Volume/Average Ratio: Shows how current volume compares to the historical average. Values above the threshold (default 1.5x) indicate abnormal activity that may signal institutional involvement.
BWF-Index: A proprietary metric that quantifies potential whale activity. Higher values (especially >10) indicate stronger likelihood of institutional participation. The BWF-Index combines volume anomalies, price action characteristics, and candle morphology to provide a single measure of potential whale activity.
Status: Displays the current market classification based on detected patterns:
"Major Whale Activity": Extreme volume detected, suggesting significant institutional involvement
"Accumulation": Potential buying activity by large players
"Distribution": Potential selling activity by large players
"High Volume": Above-average volume without clear accumulation/distribution patterns
"Normal": Regular market activity with no significant institutional footprints
Trend: Shows the current market trend based on EMA comparison:
"Uptrend": Fast EMA above Slow EMA, suggesting bullish momentum
"Downtrend": Fast EMA below Slow EMA, suggesting bearish momentum
"Sideways": EMAs very close together, suggesting consolidation
Zone: Indicates if the current price is in a previously identified institutional activity zone:
"In Buy Zone": Price is in an area where accumulation was previously detected
"In Sell Zone": Price is in an area where distribution was previously detected
"Neutral": Price is not in a previously identified institutional zone
Trading Recommendations
Based on the different signals and patterns, the following trading recommendations apply:
Bullish Scenarios
Accumulation (A) + Uptrend: Strong buy signal. Large players are accumulating in an established uptrend, suggesting potential continuation or acceleration.
Strategy: Consider entering long positions with stops below the accumulation zone.
Extreme Volume (🐋) + In Buy Zone + Price Above EMAs: Very bullish. Major whale activity in a previously established buying zone with positive price action.
Strategy: Aggressive buying opportunity with wider stops to accommodate volatility.
High BWF-Index (>10) + Accumulation + Downtrend Ending: Potential trend reversal signal. High institutional interest at the potential end of a downtrend.
Strategy: Early position building with tight risk management until trend confirmation.
Bearish Scenarios
Distribution (D) + Downtrend: Strong sell signal. Large players are distributing in an established downtrend, suggesting potential continuation or acceleration.
Strategy: Consider entering short positions with stops above the distribution zone.
Extreme Volume (🐋) + In Sell Zone + Price Below EMAs: Very bearish. Major whale activity in a previously established selling zone with negative price action.
Strategy: Aggressive shorting opportunity with wider stops to accommodate volatility.
High BWF-Index (>10) + Distribution + Uptrend Ending: Potential trend reversal signal. High institutional interest at the potential end of an uptrend.
Strategy: Early short position building with tight risk management until trend confirmation.
Neutral/Caution Scenarios
Iceberg Orders (ICE) + Sideways Market: Suggests significant hidden liquidity at current levels.
Strategy: Mark these levels as potential support/resistance for future reference. Consider range-trading strategies.
Conflicting Signals (e.g., Accumulation in Downtrend): Requires careful analysis.
Strategy: Wait for additional confirmation or reduce position sizing.
Multiple Extreme Volume Events (🐋) in Succession: Indicates unusual market conditions, possibly related to news events or major market shifts.
Strategy: Exercise extreme caution and potentially reduce exposure until clarity emerges.
Practical Applications
Short-Term Trading:
Use the indicator to identify institutional activity zones for potential intraday support/resistance levels
Watch for whale symbols (🐋) to anticipate potential volatility or trend changes
Combine with price action analysis for entry/exit timing
Swing Trading
Focus on accumulation/distribution patterns in conjunction with the prevailing trend
Use buy/sell zones as areas to establish or exit positions
Monitor the BWF-Index for increasing institutional interest over time
Position Trading
Track long-term whale activity to identify shifts in institutional positioning
Use multiple timeframe analysis to confirm major accumulation/distribution phases
Combine with fundamental analysis to validate potential long-term trend changes

QuantumTrend SwiftEdgeQuantumTrend SwiftEdge - A Trend-Following Indicator for TradingView
Overview:
QuantumTrend SwiftEdge is a visually engaging and customizable trend-following indicator that combines the power of Supertrend, Keltner Channels, and a 100-period EMA to generate precise buy and sell signals. Designed to help traders identify trends and breakouts, this indicator offers a unique blend of technical tools with a modern gradient color effect, making it both functional and visually appealing.
What It Does:
This indicator identifies trend directions and potential entry/exit points:
- Supertrend determines the overall trend direction, showing a green line below the price during uptrends and a red line above the price during downtrends. The line only appears when the price is close to it, indicating an active trend.
- Keltner Channels highlight volatility and breakouts, with the upper and lower bands dynamically adjusting to market conditions.
- A 100-period EMA provides a longer-term trend perspective, helping to filter out noise.
- Buy and sell signals are generated when specific conditions align across these indicators, ensuring robust trade setups.
How It Works:
The indicator uses three components to generate signals:
1. **Supertrend**: Calculates trend direction using the Average True Range (ATR) and a multiplier. It switches between uptrend (green) and downtrend (red) based on price movements relative to the Supertrend line.
2. **Keltner Channels**: Consists of an EMA (default 20 periods) with upper and lower bands based on ATR. A breakout above the upper band signals potential buying opportunities, while a breakout below the lower band signals potential selling opportunities.
3. **100-period EMA**: Acts as a trend filter, ensuring signals align with the broader market direction.
**Buy Signal**:
- Price is above the 100-period EMA (bullish market).
- Price breaks above the Keltner Channel upper band (indicating a breakout).
- Supertrend switches to an uptrend (trend changes from down to up).
**Sell Signal**:
- Price is below the 100-period EMA (bearish market).
- Price breaks below the Keltner Channel lower band (indicating a breakout).
- Supertrend switches to a downtrend (trend changes from up to down).
Visual Features:
- **Gradient Colors**: Supertrend lines and Keltner Channels use a smooth gradient color transition between green (uptrend) and red (downtrend), reflecting the trend's strength. The gradient is based on a smoothed trend value, creating a visually appealing effect.
- **Keltner Channel Fill**: The area between the upper and lower Keltner Channels is filled with a transparent gradient, enhancing the trend visualization.
- **Dynamic Supertrend Visibility**: Supertrend lines only appear when the price is close to the line (within an ATR-based threshold), indicating an active trend.
How to Use:
1. Add the "QuantumTrend SwiftEdge" indicator to your chart in TradingView.
2. Customize the settings:
- **Signal Sensitivity (1=Low, 5=High)**: Default is 3. Lower values (e.g., 1) make signals less frequent by using wider parameters, while higher values (e.g., 5) make signals more frequent by tightening parameters.
- **Use Manual Settings**: If enabled, you can manually adjust all parameters (ATR Period, ATR Multiplier, Keltner Channel Length, Keltner Channel Multiplier, Keltner ATR Length, EMA Length) to fine-tune the indicator.
- **Change ATR Calculation Method**: Toggle between standard ATR calculation and a simple moving average of true range.
- **Show Buy/Sell Signals**: Toggle to show or hide buy (green "Buy" label) and sell (red "Sell" label) signals.
- **Highlighter On/Off**: Toggle to show or hide the gradient fill between the price and Supertrend line when the line is visible.
3. Interpret the signals:
- A green "Buy" label below the price indicates a potential buying opportunity.
- A red "Sell" label above the price indicates a potential selling opportunity.
- Use the Keltner Channel gradient fill and Supertrend lines to confirm the trend direction and strength.
Why This Combination?
- **Supertrend** provides a robust trend-following mechanism, ensuring signals align with the market direction.
- **Keltner Channels** add a volatility component, identifying breakouts that often precede significant price movements.
- **100-period EMA** filters out noise, ensuring signals are generated in the context of the broader trend.
Together, these indicators create a balanced approach: Supertrend and EMA confirm the trend, while Keltner Channels pinpoint actionable entry and exit points. The gradient visuals and dynamic visibility make it easier to focus on active trends.
Originality:
QuantumTrend SwiftEdge stands out with its unique features:
- Gradient color transitions for a modern, dynamic look.
- A filled gradient between Keltner Channels, visually emphasizing the trend.
- Supertrend lines that only appear when the price is close, reducing clutter and focusing on active trends.
- Flexible settings with both sensitivity-based and manual adjustments for maximum customization.
Default Settings:
The default sensitivity is set to 3, providing a balanced approach for most markets and timeframes (e.g., 5-minute charts for crypto like BTC/USD). This setting uses moderate parameters (ATR Period=10, ATR Multiplier=3.0, Keltner Channel Length=20, Keltner Channel Multiplier=1.5, Keltner ATR Length=10, EMA Length=100). Users can adjust the sensitivity or switch to manual settings for more control.
Important Notes:
- This indicator is a tool to assist in identifying trends and potential entry/exit points. It does not guarantee profits and should be used in conjunction with other analysis and risk management practices.
- The signals are based on historical price data and do not predict future performance. Always test the indicator on a demo account before using it in live trading.
- The gradient effect is purely visual and does not affect the signal logic.
CyberCandle SwiftEdgeCyberCandle SwiftEdge
Overview
CyberCandle SwiftEdge is a cutting-edge, AI-inspired trading indicator designed for traders seeking precision and clarity in trend-following and swing trading. Powered by SwiftEdge, it combines Heikin Ashi candles, a gradient-colored Exponential Moving Average (EMA), and a Relative Strength Index (RSI) to deliver clear buy and sell signals. Featuring glowing visuals, dynamic signal icons, and a customizable RSI dashboard in the top-right corner, this script offers a futuristic interface for identifying high-probability trade setups on various timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H).
What It Does
CyberCandle SwiftEdge integrates three powerful components to generate actionable trading signals:
Heikin Ashi Candles: Smooths price action to highlight trends, reducing market noise and making reversals easier to spot.
Gradient EMA: A 100-period EMA with dynamic color transitions (blue/cyan for uptrends, red/pink for downtrends) to confirm market direction.
RSI Dashboard: A neon-lit display showing RSI levels, indicating overbought (>70), oversold (<30), or neutral (30-70) conditions.
Buy and sell signals are marked with prominent, glowing icons (triangles and arrows) based on trend direction, momentum, and specific Heikin Ashi patterns. The script’s customizable parameters allow traders to tailor the strategy to their preferences, balancing signal frequency and precision.
How It Works
The strategy leverages the synergy of Heikin Ashi, EMA, and RSI to filter trades and highlight opportunities:
Trend Direction: The price must be above the EMA for buy signals (bullish trend) or below for sell signals (bearish trend). The EMA’s gradient color shifts based on its slope, visually reinforcing trend strength.
Momentum Confirmation: RSI must exceed a user-defined threshold (default: 50) for buy signals or fall below it for sell signals, ensuring momentum supports the trade.
Candle Patterns: Buy signals require a green Heikin Ashi candle (close > open), with the two prior candles having minimal upper wicks (≤5% of candle body) and being red (indicating a retracement). Sell signals require a red candle, minimal lower wicks, and two prior green candles.
RSI Dashboard: Positioned in the top-right corner, it features a glowing circle (red for overbought, green for oversold, blue for neutral), the current RSI value, and a status indicator (triangle for extremes, square for neutral). This provides instant momentum insights without cluttering the chart.
By combining Heikin Ashi’s trend clarity, EMA’s directional filter, and RSI’s momentum validation, CyberCandle SwiftEdge minimizes false signals and highlights trades with strong potential. Its vibrant, AI-like visuals make it easy to interpret at a glance.
How to Use It
Add to Chart: In TradingView, search for "CyberCandle SwiftEdge" and add it to your chart. Set the chart to Heikin Ashi candles for optimal compatibility.
Interpret Signals:
Buy Signal: Large green triangles and arrows appear below candles when the price is above the EMA, RSI is above the buy threshold (default: 50), and conditions for a bullish retracement are met. Consider entering a long position with a 1:2 risk/reward ratio.
Sell Signal: Large red triangles and arrows appear above candles when the price is below the EMA, RSI is below the sell threshold (default: 50), and conditions for a bearish retracement are met. Consider entering a short position.
RSI Dashboard: Monitor the top-right dashboard. A red circle (RSI > 70) suggests caution for buys, a green circle (RSI < 30) indicates potential buying opportunities, and a blue circle (RSI 30-70) signals neutrality.
Customize Parameters: Open the indicator’s settings to adjust:
EMA Length (default: 100): Increase (e.g., 200) for longer-term trends or decrease (e.g., 50) for shorter-term sensitivity.
RSI Length (default: 14): Adjust for more (e.g., 7) or less (e.g., 21) responsive momentum signals.
RSI Buy/Sell Thresholds (default: 50): Set higher (e.g., 55) for buys or lower (e.g., 45) for sells to require stronger momentum.
Wick Tolerance (default: 0.05): Increase (e.g., 0.1) to allow larger wicks, generating more signals, or decrease (e.g., 0.02) for stricter conditions.
Require Retracement (default: true): Disable to remove the two-candle retracement requirement, increasing signal frequency.
Trading: Use signals in conjunction with the RSI dashboard and market context. For example, avoid buy signals if the RSI dashboard is red (overbought). Always apply proper risk management, such as setting stop-losses based on recent lows/highs.
What Makes It Original
CyberCandle SwiftEdge stands out due to its futuristic, AI-inspired visual design and user-friendly customization:
Neon Aesthetics: Glowing Heikin Ashi candles, gradient EMA, and dynamic signal icons (triangles and arrows) with RSI-driven transparency create a high-tech, immersive experience.
RSI Dashboard: A compact, top-right display with a neon circle, RSI value, and adaptive status indicator (triangle/square) provides instant momentum insights without cluttering the chart.
Customizability: Users can fine-tune EMA length, RSI parameters, wick tolerance, and retracement requirements via TradingView’s settings, balancing signal frequency and precision.
Integrated Approach: The synergy of Heikin Ashi’s trend clarity, EMA’s directional strength, and RSI’s momentum validation offers a cohesive strategy that reduces false signals.
Why This Combination?
The script combines Heikin Ashi, EMA, and RSI for a complementary effect:
Heikin Ashi smooths price fluctuations, making it ideal for identifying sustained trends and retracements, which are critical for the strategy’s signal logic.
EMA provides a reliable trend filter, ensuring signals align with the broader market direction. Its gradient color enhances visual trend recognition.
RSI adds momentum context, confirming that signals occur during favorable conditions (e.g., RSI > 50 for buys). The dashboard makes RSI intuitive, even for non-technical users.
Together, these components create a balanced system that captures trend reversals after retracements, validated by momentum, with a visually engaging interface that simplifies decision-making.
Tips
Best used on volatile assets (e.g., BTC/USD, EUR/USD) and higher timeframes (1H, 4H) for clearer trends.
Experiment with parameters in the settings to match your trading style (e.g., increase wick tolerance for more signals).
Combine with other analysis (e.g., support/resistance) for higher-confidence trades.
Note
This indicator is for informational purposes and does not guarantee profits. Always backtest and use proper risk management before trading.

ICT Swiftedge# ICT SwiftEdge: Advanced Market Structure Trading System
**Overview**
ICT SwiftEdge is a powerful trading system built upon the foundation of ICTProTools' ICT Breakers, licensed under the Mozilla Public License 2.0 (mozilla.org). This script has been significantly enhanced by to combine market structure analysis with modern technical indicators and a sleek, AI-inspired statistics dashboard. The goal is to provide traders with a comprehensive tool for identifying high-probability trade setups, managing exits, and tracking performance in a visually intuitive way.
**Credits**
This script is a derivative work based on the original "ICT Breakers" by ICTProTools, used with permission under the Mozilla Public License 2.0. Significant enhancements, including RSI-MA signals, trend filtering, dynamic timeframe adjustments, dual exit strategies, and an AI-style statistics dashboard, were developed by . We express our gratitude to ICTProTools for their foundational work in market structure analysis.
**What It Does**
ICT SwiftEdge integrates multiple trading concepts to help traders identify and manage trades based on market structure and momentum:
- **Market Structure Analysis**: Identifies Break of Structure (BOS) and Market Structure Shift (MSS) patterns, which signal potential trend continuations or reversals. BOS indicates a continuation of the current trend, while MSS highlights a shift in market direction, providing key entry points.
- **RSI-MA Signals**: Generates "BUY" and "SELL" signals when BOS or MSS patterns align with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) smoothed by a Moving Average (RSI-MA). Signals are filtered to occur only when RSI-MA is above 50 (for buys) or below 50 (for sells), ensuring momentum supports the trade direction.
- **Trend Filtering**: Prevents multiple signals in the same trend, ensuring only one buy or sell signal per trend direction, reducing noise and improving trade clarity.
- **Dynamic Timeframe Adjustment**: Automatically adjusts pivot points, RSI, and MA parameters based on the selected chart timeframe (1M to 1D), optimizing performance across different market conditions.
- **Flexible Exit Strategies**: Offers two user-selectable exit methods:
- **Trailing Stop-Loss (TSL)**: Exits trades when price moves against the position by a user-defined distance (in points), locking in profits or limiting losses.
- **RSI-MA Exit**: Exits trades when RSI-MA crosses the 50 level, signaling a potential loss of momentum.
- Users can enable either or both strategies, providing flexibility to adapt to different trading styles.
- **AI-Style Statistics Dashboard**: Displays real-time trade performance metrics in a futuristic, neon-colored interface, including total trades, wins, losses, win/loss ratio, and win percentage. This helps traders evaluate the system's effectiveness without external tools.
**Why This Combination?**
The integration of these components creates a synergistic trading system:
- **BOS/MSS and RSI-MA**: Combining market structure breaks with RSI-MA ensures entries are based on both price action (structure) and momentum (RSI-MA), increasing the likelihood of high-probability trades.
- **Trend Filtering**: By limiting signals to one per trend, the system avoids overtrading and focuses on significant market moves.
- **Dynamic Adjustments**: Timeframe-specific parameters make the system versatile, suitable for scalping (1M, 5M) or swing trading (4H, 1D).
- **Dual Exit Strategies**: TSL protects profits during trending markets, while RSI-MA exits are ideal for range-bound or reversing markets, catering to diverse market conditions.
- **Statistics Dashboard**: Provides immediate feedback on trade performance, enabling data-driven decision-making without manual tracking.
This combination balances technical precision with user-friendly visuals, making it accessible to both novice and experienced traders.
**How to Use**
1. **Add to Chart**: Apply the script to any TradingView chart.
2. **Configure Settings**:
- **Chart Timeframe**: Select your chart's timeframe (1M to 1D) to optimize parameters.
- **Structure Timeframe**: Choose a timeframe for market structure analysis (leave blank for chart timeframe).
- **Exit Strategy**: Enable Trailing Stop-Loss (`useTslExit`), RSI-MA Exit (`useRsiMaExit`), or both. Adjust `tslPoints` for TSL distance.
- **Show Signals/Labels**: Toggle `showSignals` and `showExit` to display "BUY", "SELL", and "EXIT" labels.
- **Dashboard**: Enable `showDashboard` to view trade statistics. Customize colors with `dashboardBgColor` and `dashboardTextColor`.
3. **Trading**:
- Look for "BUY" or "SELL" labels to enter trades when BOS/MSS aligns with RSI-MA.

ENIGMA 369 ENIGMA 369 is a unique Pine Script indicator that combines two complementary trading systems: Break of Structure (BOS) Detection and Session-Based Sniper Signals.
Designed to help traders identify market structure shifts and potential intraday setups, it overlays on the chart to highlight key levels and momentum-driven opportunities. The indicator’s originality lies in its integration of pattern-based BOS analysis (inspired by Smart Money concepts) with time- and trend-filtered Sniper signals, creating a cohesive tool for both swing and intraday trading.
Unlike standalone breakout or scalping indicators, ENIGMA 369 uses:
BOS Logic: A specific two-candle pattern sequence to detect structural shifts, filtered by ATR for significance.
Sniper Logic: Momentum-based signals during high-volatility sessions, optionally aligned with EMA trends.
This synergy allows traders to assess market direction strategically (via BOS) and time entries tactically (via Sniper), all within one indicator.
What It Does
ENIGMA 369 performs two distinct functions:
Break of Structure (BOS) Detection:
Identifies potential support/resistance levels using BullBear (bullish candle followed by bearish) and BearBull (bearish followed by bullish) candle pairs.
Confirms breakouts when price sustains above (bullish) or below (bearish) these levels for a set number of bars.
Draws horizontal lines at confirmed breakout levels, which persist until price crosses a user-defined buffer zone.
Sniper Momentum Signals:
Detects buy/sell setups during user-specified trading sessions (e.g., London/US), based on candle momentum (close relative to midpoint, higher highs/lower lows).
Optionally filters signals with an EMA to align with the broader trend.
Plots lines at the candle’s high/low and 50% wick levels, serving as reference points for entries or stops, removed when price crosses them.
How It Works
ENIGMA 369 relies on price action, market timing, and trend context to generate signals. Here’s how each component operates:
BOS Logic:
Pattern Detection: Scans for two-candle patterns where the first candle is significant (size exceeds an ATR-based threshold) and the second opposes it. For example, a BullBear pair marks the first candle’s high as a potential resistance.
ATR Filter: Uses the Average True Range (default: 14 periods) to ensure the first candle’s range or body is substantial, reducing noise. Users can adjust the ATR multiplier (default: 0.5).
Confirmation: Requires price to close above/below the stored level for a user-defined number of bars (default: 1) to confirm a breakout.
Line Management: Plots green (bullish) or red (bearish) lines at confirmed levels, extending for a set number of bars (default: 10). Lines are deleted if price crosses a buffer (percentage of price or ATR-based, default: 0.1).
Visualization: Optionally highlights pattern candles with transparent green/red backgrounds.
Sniper Logic:
Momentum Signals: Identifies buy signals when a candle closes above its midpoint (high+low)/2 and has a lower low than the prior candle, indicating potential bullish momentum. Sell signals require a close below the midpoint and a higher high.
Session Filter: Limits signals to user-defined London/US session hours (default: 1-23 UTC, adjustable to specific hours like 7-11 UTC for London).
EMA Filter: Optionally uses a 50-period EMA (adjustable) to ensure buy signals occur in uptrends (rising EMA) and sell signals in downtrends (falling EMA).
Line Plotting: Draws blue lines for buy signals (at the low and 50% of the lower wick) and orange lines for sell signals (at the high and 50% of the upper wick). Lines extend right until price crosses them, managed via arrays for efficiency.
Dynamic Removal: Lines are automatically deleted when price breaches them, reflecting changing market conditions.
Why Combine BOS and Sniper?
The integration of BOS and Sniper logic is purposeful and synergistic:
BOS provides a strategic view by identifying structural shifts, helping traders understand the market’s directional bias (e.g., bullish after a confirmed high breakout).
Sniper offers tactical entry points within these trends, focusing on high-volatility sessions where momentum is likely to drive clear moves.
Together, they enable traders to align short-term trades with long-term structure, reducing the risk of trading against the trend. For example, a trader can wait for a bullish BOS confirmation before taking Sniper buy signals, enhancing setup reliability.
This combination is original because it merges Smart Money-inspired BOS detection with a session-based momentum system, a pairing not commonly found in single indicators. It avoids redundant mashups by ensuring each component serves a distinct yet complementary role.
How to Use It
Setup:
Apply ENIGMA 369 to a TradingView chart (Pine Script v5). The chart shown here uses a clean H1 candlestick setup to highlight BOS and Sniper outputs clearly.
Customize settings:
BOS:
ATR Period (default: 14), Min Candle Size (default: 0.5x ATR): Adjust for pattern sensitivity.
Confirmation Bars (default: 1): Set for faster/slower breakouts.
Buffer Type (Percentage/ATR), Buffer Zone Value (default: 0.1): Control line deletion.
Show Lines (default: true), Highlight Candle Pairs (default: false): Enable visuals.
Customize line colors (green/red) and width/length.
Sniper:
London/US Start/End Hours: Set to match your asset’s volatility (e.g., 7-11 UTC for London forex).
EMA Filter (default: true), EMA Period (default: 50): Enable for trend alignment.
Customize line styles (Solid/Dotted/Dashed) and colors (blue/orange) to distinguish from BOS.
Suggested timeframes: H1-H4 for BOS (swing trading), M5-M15 for Sniper (intraday).
Trading with BOS:
Monitor for green (bullish) or red (bearish) lines indicating confirmed breakouts.
Use lines as support/resistance:
Bullish BOS: Consider longs above the line, with stops below the line or buffer.
Bearish BOS: Consider shorts below the line, with stops above the line or buffer.
Line deletion signals a potential reversal or level invalidation.
Trading with Sniper:
Look for blue (buy) or orange (sell) lines during active sessions:
Buy: Enter long at the low or 50% wick line, with stops below the low and targets at resistance.
Sell: Enter short at the high or 50% wick line, with stops above the high and targets at support.
Use EMA filter to avoid counter-trend signals.
Lines disappear when crossed, indicating the setup’s completion or invalidation.
Alerts:
Set alerts for:
“Bullish/Bearish BOS Confirmed” for structural shifts.
“Sniper Buy/Sell Alert” for intraday setups.
Combine with volume, key levels, or news for confirmation.
Best Practices:
Use BOS to confirm trend direction before taking Sniper signals.
Test settings on your asset/timeframe via backtesting.
Apply stop-losses and risk-reward ratios (e.g., 1:2) for discipline.
The chart example shows BOS lines (green/red) and Sniper lines (blue/orange) on an H1 chart, ensuring clarity.
Underlying Concepts
Market Structure (BOS): Identifies turning points where supply/demand shifts, using two-candle patterns to mark significant levels, similar to order block concepts.
Momentum and Timing (Sniper): Targets entries during high-liquidity sessions, using candle midpoint and wick analysis to capture momentum-driven moves.
Trend Context: EMA ensures signals align with the market’s direction, reducing false positives.
Price Action: Both systems rely on raw price behavior, avoiding lagging oscillators for timely signals.
Limitations
BOS may lag in fast markets; reduce confirmation bars for scalping.
Sniper signals depend on session settings; ensure alignment with your asset’s volatility.
Multiple lines may clutter charts; adjust colors/styles for clarity.
Not a standalone system; combine with other analysis for best results.
Disclaimer
ENIGMA 369 is a tool to identify potential trading setups, not a guaranteed profit system. Past performance does not predict future results. Backtest thoroughly and use with proper risk management.
Conclusion
ENIGMA 369 offers a structured approach to trading by combining BOS’s structural insights with Sniper’s precise, session-based entries. Its unique integration makes it suitable for traders seeking to align strategic and tactical decisions. Customize it to your style, test it rigorously, and use it to enhance your market analysis.
NQ/MNQ Futures Delta+ with Price Action EntriesNQ/MNQ Futures Delta+ with Price Action Entries
Description: This TradingView indicator combines Futures Delta analysis with advanced price action techniques to provide an enhanced trading strategy for the NQ/MNQ futures market. The script analyzes the market using a variety of methods including Delta, volume analysis, and candlestick patterns, while also incorporating price action factors like support/resistance levels and breakouts to offer more refined buy and sell signals.
Key Features:
Delta Analysis:
The Delta calculation tracks the difference between buying and selling pressure within each market bar. The indicator calculates delta based on different modes (Classic, Volume Based, Tick Based), and then applies cumulative delta for trend analysis.
The Cumulative Delta is calculated using one of the three available modes:
Total: Tracks the cumulative delta over time.
Periodic: Measures delta over a defined period (user-configurable).
EMA: Applies an Exponential Moving Average to smooth the delta values.
Volume Confirmation:
The script includes volume analysis to confirm price movements. A volume spike is used to validate buy/sell signals, ensuring that price movements are supported by significant trading volume.
Price Action-Based Entries:
Support and Resistance: Dynamic support and resistance levels are calculated based on the lowest low and highest high of the last 20 bars. These levels are used to identify breakout points, providing context for potential buy/sell entries.
Candlestick Patterns: The script recognizes Bullish Engulfing and Bearish Engulfing candlestick patterns. These patterns signal potential reversals in price direction and are used to confirm trade entries.
Breakout Logic: Buy signals are triggered when the price breaks above resistance, and sell signals are triggered when the price breaks below support, providing high-probability entry points during trend reversals or continuations.
Moving Average Trend Confirmation:
The script uses two moving averages:
9-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA): Short-term trend indicator.
21-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA): Longer-term trend indicator.
Trades are only considered in the direction of the prevailing trend:
A bullish signal is confirmed if the price is above both EMAs.
A bearish signal is confirmed if the price is below both EMAs.
Buy/Sell Signal Triggers:
Buy Signal: A buy signal is triggered when:
A bullish divergence is confirmed with volume support.
A bullish engulfing candlestick pattern forms.
The price breaks above resistance.
The price is above both the 9 EMA and 21 EMA, indicating an uptrend.
Sell Signal: A sell signal is triggered when:
A bearish divergence is confirmed with volume support.
A bearish engulfing candlestick pattern forms.
The price breaks below support.
The price is below both the 9 EMA and 21 EMA, indicating a downtrend.
Visualization:
Delta Candles: The cumulative delta is plotted as a candlestick on the chart, with green and red coloring to show buying or selling dominance.
Support and Resistance Levels: Support and resistance zones are plotted to show key levels where price action may react.
Moving Averages: The 9 EMA and 21 EMA are plotted to show short-term and long-term trend direction.
Signal Markers: Buy and sell signals are marked on the chart with green triangles (buy) and red triangles (sell) for easy visualization of trade opportunities.
Alerts:
Alerts can be set up for buy and sell signals, enabling you to be notified when the script identifies potential trade opportunities based on Delta analysis, volume confirmation, and price action.
How to Use This Script:
Market: This script is optimized for NQ and MNQ futures contracts but can be adapted for other markets as well.
Signal Interpretation: Use the buy and sell signals for trend-following or counter-trend trades. These signals are particularly useful for 1-minute or 5-minute charts but can be adjusted to fit other timeframes.
Support/Resistance: Pay close attention to the dynamic support and resistance levels, as these are key price action points where significant price movements can occur.
Trend Confirmation: Ensure that trades are aligned with the overall trend confirmed by the 9 EMA and 21 EMA. The script prioritizes signals that align with the broader market trend.
Breakouts: Use the breakout logic to catch price moves when the market breaks key support or resistance levels. These can often lead to strong moves in the direction of the breakout.
Volume Flow with Bollinger Bands and EMA Cross SignalsThe Volume Flow with Bollinger Bands and EMA Cross Signals indicator is a custom technical analysis tool designed to identify potential buy and sell signals based on several key components:
Volume Flow: This component combines price movement and trading volume to create a signal that indicates the strength or weakness of price movements. When the price is rising with increasing volume, it suggests strong buying activity, whereas falling prices with increasing volume indicate strong selling pressure.
Bollinger Bands: Bollinger Bands consist of three lines:
The Basis (middle line), which is a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the price over a set period.
The Upper Band, which is the Basis plus a multiple of the standard deviation (typically 2).
The Lower Band, which is the Basis minus a multiple of the standard deviation. Bollinger Bands help identify periods of high volatility and potential overbought/oversold conditions. When the price touches the upper band, it might indicate that the market is overbought, while touching the lower band might indicate oversold conditions.
EMA Crossovers: The script includes two Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs):
Fast EMA: A shorter-term EMA, typically more sensitive to price changes.
Slow EMA: A longer-term EMA, responding slower to price changes. The crossover of the Fast EMA crossing above the Slow EMA (bullish crossover) signals a potential buy opportunity, while the Fast EMA crossing below the Slow EMA (bearish crossover) signals a potential sell opportunity.
Background Color and Candle Color: The indicator highlights the chart's background with specific colors based on the signals:
Green background for buy signals.
Yellow background for sell signals. Additionally, the candles are colored green for buy signals and yellow for sell signals to visually reinforce the trade opportunities.
Buy/Sell Labels: Small labels are placed on the chart:
"BUY" label in green is placed below the bar when a buy signal is generated.
"SELL" label in yellow is placed above the bar when a sell signal is generated.
Working of the Indicator:
Volume Flow Calculation: The Volume Flow is calculated by multiplying the price change (current close minus the previous close) with the volume. This product is then smoothed with a Simple Moving Average (SMA) over a user-defined period (length). The result is then multiplied by a multiplier to adjust its sensitivity.
Price Change = close - close
Volume Flow = Price Change * Volume
Smoothed Volume Flow = SMA(Volume Flow, length)
The Volume Flow Signal is then: Smooth Volume Flow * Multiplier
This calculation represents the buying or selling pressure in the market.
Bollinger Bands: Bollinger Bands are calculated using the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the closing price (basis) and the Standard Deviation (stdev) of the price over a period defined by the user (bb_length).
Basis (Middle Band) = SMA(close, bb_length)
Upper Band = Basis + (bb_std_dev * Stdev)
Lower Band = Basis - (bb_std_dev * Stdev)
The upper and lower bands are plotted alongside the price to identify the price's volatility. When the price is near the upper band, it could be overbought, and near the lower band, it could be oversold.
EMA Crossovers: The Fast EMA and Slow EMA are calculated using the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) function. The crossovers are detected by checking:
Buy Signal (Bullish Crossover): When the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA.
Sell Signal (Bearish Crossover): When the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA.
The long_condition variable checks if the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA, and the short_condition checks if it crosses below.
Visual Signals:
Background Color: The background is colored green for a buy signal and yellow for a sell signal. This gives an immediate visual cue to the trader.
Bar Color: The candles are colored green for buy signals and yellow for sell signals.
Labels:
A "BUY" label in green appears below the bar when the Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA.
A "SELL" label in yellow appears above the bar when the Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA.
Summary of Buy/Sell Logic:
Buy Signal:
The Fast EMA crosses above the Slow EMA (bullish crossover).
Volume flow is positive, indicating buying pressure.
Background turns green and candles are colored green.
A "BUY" label appears below the bar.
Sell Signal:
The Fast EMA crosses below the Slow EMA (bearish crossover).
Volume flow is negative, indicating selling pressure.
Background turns yellow and candles are colored yellow.
A "SELL" label appears above the bar.
Usage of the Indicator:
This indicator is designed to help traders identify potential entry (buy) and exit (sell) points based on:
The interaction of Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs).
The strength and direction of Volume Flow.
Price volatility using Bollinger Bands.
By combining these components, the indicator provides a comprehensive view of market conditions, helping traders make informed decisions on when to enter and exit trades.
Liquidity Heatmap SwiftEdgeDescription
Liquidity Heatmap with Buy/Sell Side (Blue/Red) is a technical analysis tool designed to help traders identify potential liquidity zones in the market by combining swing high/low detection with volume analysis, visualized as a heatmap overlay on the chart. This script highlights areas where significant buying or selling pressure may exist, often acting as support or resistance levels, and provides a clear visual representation of these zones using color-coded heatmap boxes and labeled bubbles.
What It Does
The script identifies key price levels (swing highs and lows) where liquidity is likely to be concentrated, such as stop-loss clusters or pending orders. These levels are then grouped into a heatmap, with blue zones representing potential buy-side liquidity (below the current price) and red zones indicating sell-side liquidity (above the current price). Each zone is marked with a bubble showing the estimated liquidity amount, derived from volume data, to help traders gauge the strength of the level.
How It Works
The script combines three main components to create a comprehensive liquidity visualization:
Swing Highs and Lows Detection:
The script uses the ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions to identify swing highs and lows over a user-defined lookback period (Swing Length). These levels often represent areas where price has reversed, indicating potential liquidity zones where stop-losses or pending orders may be placed.
Volume Analysis:
Volume data at each swing high/low is captured and averaged over a specified period (Volume Average Length). This volume is then scaled using a multiplier (Volume Multiplier for Liquidity) to estimate the liquidity amount at each level, displayed in thousands (e.g., "10K") on the chart via labeled bubbles.
Heatmap Visualization:
The identified levels are grouped into price bins to form a heatmap. The price range is divided into a user-defined number of bins (Number of Heatmap Bins), and each bin is drawn as a colored box (blue for buy-side, red for sell-side). The transparency of the heatmap boxes can be adjusted (Heatmap Transparency) to ensure they do not obscure the price action.
Why Combine These Components?
The combination of swing highs/lows, volume analysis, and a heatmap provides a powerful way to visualize liquidity in the market. Swing highs and lows are natural points where liquidity tends to accumulate, as they often coincide with areas where traders place stop-losses or pending orders. By incorporating volume data, the script quantifies the potential strength of these levels, giving traders insight into the magnitude of liquidity present. The heatmap visualization then aggregates these levels into a clear, color-coded overlay, making it easy to see where buy-side and sell-side liquidity is concentrated without cluttering the chart.
This mashup is particularly useful because it bridges price action (swing levels), market activity (volume), and visual clarity (heatmap), offering a holistic view of potential support and resistance zones that might influence price movements.
How to Use It
Add the Indicator to Your Chart:
Apply the script to your chart by adding it from the Pine Script library. It will overlay directly on your price chart.
Interpret the Heatmap:
Blue Zones (Buy-Side Liquidity): These appear below the current price and indicate levels where buying pressure or stop-losses from short positions may be located.
Red Zones (Sell-Side Liquidity): These appear above the current price and indicate levels where selling pressure or stop-losses from long positions may be located.
The intensity of the color is controlled by the Heatmap Transparency setting—lower values make the zones more opaque, while higher values make them more transparent.
Analyze the Bubbles:
Each liquidity zone is marked with a bubble showing the estimated liquidity amount in thousands (e.g., "10K"). The size of the bubble is scaled by the Bubble Size Multiplier, with larger bubbles indicating higher liquidity.
Adjust Settings for Your Needs:
Liquidity Settings:
Swing Length: Controls the lookback period for detecting swing highs and lows. A smaller value (e.g., 10) is better for shorter timeframes like 1-minute charts, while a larger value (e.g., 50) suits higher timeframes.
Liquidity Threshold: Defines how close two levels must be to be considered the same, preventing duplicate zones.
Volume Average Length: Sets the period for averaging volume data at swing points.
Volume Multiplier for Liquidity: Scales the volume to estimate liquidity amounts shown in the bubbles.
Lookback Period (Hours): Limits how far back the script looks for liquidity zones.
Use Price Window Filter: If enabled, only shows zones within a price range defined by Liquidity Window (Points per Side).
Heatmap Settings:
Number of Heatmap Bins: Determines how many price bins the heatmap is divided into. More bins create a finer resolution but may clutter the chart.
Heatmap Bin Height (Points): Sets the vertical height of each heatmap box in price points.
Heatmap Transparency: Adjusts the transparency of the heatmap boxes (0 = fully opaque, 100 = fully transparent).
Display Settings:
Bubble Size Multiplier: Scales the size of the bubbles showing liquidity amounts.
Trading Application:
Use the heatmap to identify potential support (blue zones) and resistance (red zones) levels where price may react.
Pay attention to zones with larger bubbles, as they indicate higher liquidity and may have a stronger impact on price.
Combine with other analysis tools (e.g., trendlines, indicators) to confirm trade setups.
What Makes It Original?
This script stands out by integrating swing high/low detection with volume-based liquidity estimation and a heatmap visualization in a single tool. Unlike traditional support/resistance indicators that only plot static lines, this script dynamically aggregates liquidity zones into a heatmap, making it easier to see clusters of potential buying or selling pressure. The addition of volume-derived liquidity amounts in labeled bubbles provides a unique quantitative measure of each zone's strength, helping traders prioritize key levels. The color-coded buy/sell distinction further enhances its utility by visually separating zones based on their likely market impact.
Example Use Case
On a 1-minute chart of EUR/USD, you might set Swing Length to 10 to capture short-term pivots, Lookback Period (Hours) to 4 to focus on recent data, and Liquidity Window to 200 points (20 pips) to show only nearby zones. The heatmap will then display blue zones below the current price where buy-side liquidity may act as support, and red zones above where sell-side liquidity may act as resistance. A bubble showing "50K" at a blue zone indicates significant buy-side liquidity, suggesting a potential bounce if the price approaches that level.
Multitimeframe Fair Value Gap – FVG (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Multitimeframe Fair Value Gap – FVG (Zeiierman) indicator provides a dynamic and customizable visualization of institutional imbalances (Fair Value Gaps) across multiple timeframes. Built for traders who seek to analyze price inefficiencies, this tool helps highlight potential entry points, unmitigated gaps, and directional bias using smart volume logic and adaptive visual elements.
A Fair Value Gap (FVG) forms when there's a three-candle sequence in which a market imbalance leaves a "gap" between the wicks of candle 1 and candle 3. These areas are often considered footprints of institutional activity, and this indicator gives you the tools to track them with surgical precision across any timeframe you choose—regardless of the one you're viewing.
This indicator also includes a trend filter powered by a low-pass Butterworth filter, enabling traders to distinguish between countertrend vs. trend-aligned FVGs for more intelligent decision-making. On top of that, it features a dynamic FVG table for live tracking and bull/bear volume power visualization inside each gap, adding powerful clarity to market intent.
█ How It Works
The indicator analyzes the open, high, low, close, and volume of candles from a user-selected timeframe. It identifies Fair Value Gaps based on wick logic and only confirms those that meet customizable strength criteria. Once detected, the indicator visualizes each FVG with dynamically extending boxes, optional buy/sell volume bars, and a real-time mitigation check.
⚪ Multitimeframe Logic
Users can analyze FVGs from a higher or lower timeframe regardless of their current chart.
This is achieved using request.security() to fetch OHLCV data from the chosen timeframe.
⚪ Wick Sensitivity & Impulse Filter
The script measures the wick size of potential FVG candles and compares them to a running average. Only FVGs with wick sizes above a certain sensitivity threshold (user-controlled) are plotted. This ensures only meaningful price dislocations (e.g., strong impulsive moves) are shown, reducing noise.
⚪ Midpoint Mitigation Logic
FVGs are marked as "mitigated" when the price revisits the gap area. Traders can choose whether full gap closure or just a midpoint touch is required. This allows faster reactivity in real-time trading environments.
⚪ Bull & Bear Power – Volume-Weighted Visualization
Every Fair Value Gap box includes sub-bars representing the estimated buy and sell effort that created the gap. These are calculated using the candle's close in relation to its high/low range and volume:
Buy Volume % ≈ effort from low to close
Sell Volume % ≈ effort from high to close
Each sub-bar inside the FVG:
Is color-coded (UpCol for bullish, DnCol for bearish)
Is drawn proportionally to the strength of buyers or sellers
Visually displays who was in control during the imbalance
⚪ FVG Table – Dynamic On-Chart Overview
The indicator includes an optional on-chart table that displays all currently active (unmitigated) FVGs in a side panel format:
Automatic updates as gaps are formed and mitigated
Color-coded rows to show bullish vs. bearish FVGs
Timestamps to know precisely when the gap formed
User-controlled position via Table Left and Table Right
This is a gap watchlist overlay, giving traders a concise view of current inefficiencies without manually scanning the chart.
⚪ FVG Trend Filter (Butterworth Smoother)
Using a two-pole Butterworth low-pass filter, the indicator computes a trendline based on average FVG values, offering a smooth but responsive directional signal.
Passband Ripple (dB): Controls sensitivity and overshoot tolerance
Cutoff Frequency (0–0.5): Sets how quickly the trendline reacts
The trendline helps categorize each FVG:
Trend up → favor bullish FVGs
Trend down → favor bearish FVGs
It adds an extra dimension to FVG entries, helping distinguish between trend-aligned and countertrend signals.
█ How to Use
⚪ Identify Institutional Gaps
Use this tool to identify areas where institutions may have left imbalances behind quickly.
These areas often become:
Strong support/resistance zones
Areas where price might react sharply
Targets for liquidity sweeps or retracements
⚪ React to Trend or Countertrend
The built-in trendline helps categorize each FVG:
Trend up → Bullish FVGs have higher validity
Trend down → Bearish FVGs have higher validity
⚪ Volume Context via Bull/Bear Power
Each Fair Value Gap is more than just a price imbalance — it’s a story of effort and intent. The Bull/Bear Power feature visualizes the buy and sell pressure behind each FVG, helping you understand how the gap was formed and who was in control.
A bullish FVG with a strong buy effort suggests continuation potential — buyers dominated the move.
A bullish FVG with a dominant sell effort could signal a trap or reversal — sellers may have overwhelmed the breakout.
These insights allow you to confirm imbalance strength, spot traps early, and add confidence to entries based on dominant volume profiles.
Instead of viewing gaps as static zones, this feature turns each into a live volume map — a visual breakdown of who moved the market and whether that move had conviction.
⚪ Plan with the FVG Table
The FVG Table acts as your on-chart control center for tracking active imbalances. When enabled, it provides a clear summary of all unmitigated Fair Value Gaps, helping you stay organized and focused during fast-moving sessions.
Track live and historical gaps: See exactly when and where each FVG formed.
Monitor older, still-valid zones: Gaps off-screen but not mitigated remain in play — perfect for anticipating future reactions.
Gauge market bias at a glance: The balance of bullish vs. bearish FVGs helps you understand overall directional pressure.
Plan entries confidently: Use the table to reference all zones for risk management, confluence stacking, or layered execution strategies.
Instead of manually scanning your chart, the FVG Table offers a clean, at-a-glance overview of the market’s inefficiencies — giving you the structure needed to act with precision.

• Delta Sensitivity: Fine-tune buy/sell pressure detection.
Smart MACD Reversal Oscillator Pro [TradeDots]The TradeDots Smart MACD Reversal Oscillator Pro is an advanced technical analysis tool that combines traditional MACD functionality with multi-layered signal detection and divergence identification systems. This comprehensive oscillator helps traders identify potential market reversals, trend continuations, and extremes with greater precision than conventional indicators.
📝 HOW IT WORKS
Accumulation & Distribution Detection System
The indicator begins with a proprietary calculation that identifies potential accumulation and distribution phases:
Calculation: Processes EMA differentials with specific time constants to detect underlying accumulation/distribution pressure
Visualization: Green-filled areas indicate accumulation phases (bullish pressure building) while red-filled areas show distribution phases (bearish pressure building)
Significance: This system often identifies trend reversals before traditional indicators by detecting institutional buying/selling activity
Multi-Timeframe MACD Implementation
Unlike traditional MACD indicators that use a single timeframe, this oscillator incorporates multiple calculation methods:
1. Primary Oscillator: Uses a proprietary calculation that combines price extremes with smoothed averages:
Implements specialized moving average types (SMMA and ZLEMA)
Generates a histogram that changes color based on price position relative to these averages
Produces a signal line that identifies crossover opportunities
2. Secondary MACD: Traditional MACD implementation with customizable parameters:
User-selectable MA types (SMA/EMA) for both oscillator and signal line
Color-coded histogram for momentum visualization
Separate crossover detection system
Dynamic Band System
The indicator implements an innovative dynamic band system to identify overbought and oversold conditions:
Band Calculation: Analyzes historical oscillator values to establish statistically significant extremes
Adaptive Scaling: Automatically adjusts to different market volatility regimes using a customizable Y-axis scale factor
Signal Integration: Incorporates band levels into signal generation for higher-probability trades
Signal Generation System
Four distinct signal types are generated to identify potential trading opportunities:
Green Dots: Bullish crossover signals (primary oscillator crosses above signal line)
Red Dots: Bearish crossover signals (primary oscillator crosses below signal line)
Blue Dots: Secondary MACD bullish crossovers in oversold territory
Orange Dots: Secondary MACD bearish crossovers in overbought territory
Advanced Divergence Detection
The oscillator incorporates a sophisticated divergence detection system:
Regular Divergences: Identifies when price makes lower lows while the oscillator makes higher lows (bullish) or price makes higher highs while the oscillator makes lower highs (bearish)
Hidden Divergences: Optional detection of continuation patterns (currently disabled by default)
Visual Markers: Clear labels identifying divergence formations directly on the chart
Zero-Line Filter: Optional filtering to only detect divergences that don't cross the zero line

Dynamic Trend Indicator (DTI) - VWAP FilterThe Dynamic Trend Indicator (DTI) with VWAP Filter is a trend-following indicator.
It aims to identify and follow market trends while minimizing false signals in choppy or ranging markets.
The DTI combines a dynamically adjusted Exponential Moving Average (EMA) with a daily Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) confirmation filter and a cooldown mechanism to enhance signal reliability. This indicator is particularly useful for traders on intraday timeframes (e.g., 4-hour charts) who want to align their trades with the broader daily trend while avoiding whipsaws.
Key Features:
Dynamic Trend Line:
The core of the DTI is a trend line calculated using a custom EMA that adjusts its period dynamically based on market conditions.
The period of the EMA is determined by a combination of volatility (measured via ATR) and trend strength (measured via price momentum). In strong trends, the period shortens for faster responsiveness; in weak or ranging markets, it lengthens to reduce noise.
An optional smoothing EMA can be applied to the dynamic trend line to further reduce noise, with a user-defined smoothing length.
Daily VWAP Confirmation Filter:
A daily VWAP is calculated to provide a higher-timeframe trend bias. VWAP represents the average price paid for an asset during the day, weighted by volume, and is often used as a benchmark by institutional traders.
Buy signals are only generated when the price is above the daily VWAP (indicating a bullish daily bias), and sell signals are only generated when the price is below the VWAP (indicating a bearish daily bias).
The VWAP resets at the start of each day, ensuring it reflects the current day’s trading activity.
Cooldown Mechanism:
To prevent rapid signal reversals (whipsaws), the indicator includes a cooldown period between signals. After a buy or sell signal is generated, no new signals can be generated for a user-defined number of bars (default: 5 bars).
This helps filter out noise in choppy markets, ensuring signals are spaced out and more likely to align with significant trend changes.
Visual Elements:
Trend Line: Plotted on the chart, colored green when the price is above (uptrend) and red when below (downtrend). A gray color indicates a neutral trend.
Buy/Sell Signals: Displayed as green triangles below the bar for buy signals and red triangles above the bar for sell signals.
Background Coloring: The chart background is shaded green during uptrends and red during downtrends, providing a quick visual cue of the trend direction.
Daily VWAP Line: Optionally plotted as a purple step line, allowing traders to see the VWAP level and its relationship to the price.
Alerts:
The indicator includes built-in alerts for buy and sell signals, triggered when the price crosses the trend line and satisfies the VWAP filter and cooldown conditions.
Alert messages specify whether the signal is a buy or sell and confirm that the VWAP condition was met (e.g., "DTI Buy Signal: Price crossed above trend line and VWAP").
Input Parameters
Base Length (default: 14): The base period for calculating volatility and trend strength, used to adjust the dynamic EMA period.
Volatility Multiplier (default: 1.5): Adjusts the sensitivity of the dynamic period to market volatility (via ATR).
Trend Threshold (default: 0.5): Controls the sensitivity of the dynamic period to trend strength (via price momentum).
Use Smoothing (default: true): Enables/disables smoothing of the trend line with an additional EMA.
Smoothing Length (default: 3): The period for the smoothing EMA, if enabled.
Cooldown Bars (default: 5): The minimum number of bars between consecutive signals, reducing signal frequency in choppy markets.
Show Daily VWAP (default: true): Toggles the display of the daily VWAP line on the chart.
How It Works
Dynamic Trend Line Calculation:
Volatility is measured using the Average True Range (ATR) over the base length, scaled by the volatility multiplier.
Trend strength is calculated as the absolute price momentum (change in price over the base length) divided by the volatility factor.
The dynamic EMA period is adjusted based on the trend strength: stronger trends result in a shorter period (faster response), while weaker trends result in a longer period (more stability). The period is constrained between 5 and 50 to avoid extreme values.
A custom EMA function is used to handle the dynamic period, as Pine Script’s built-in ta.ema() requires a fixed length. The trend line is optionally smoothed with a secondary EMA.
Signal Generation:
A buy signal is generated when the price crosses above the trend line, the price is above the daily VWAP, and the cooldown period has elapsed.
A sell signal is generated when the price crosses below the trend line, the price is below the daily VWAP, and the cooldown period has elapsed.
The cooldown mechanism ensures that signals are not generated too frequently, reducing false signals in ranging markets.
Daily VWAP Calculation:
The VWAP is calculated by accumulating the price-volume product (close * volume) and total volume for the day, resetting at the start of each new day.
The VWAP is then computed as the cumulative price-volume divided by the cumulative volume, providing a volume-weighted average price for the day.
Usage
Timeframe: Best suited for intraday timeframes (e.g., 1-hour, 4-hour) where the daily VWAP provides a higher-timeframe trend bias. It can also be used on daily charts with adjustments to the cooldown period.
Markets: Works well in trending markets (e.g., forex, crypto, stocks) where the dynamic trend line can capture sustained price movements. The VWAP filter helps align signals with the daily trend, making it effective for assets with clear daily biases.
Trading Strategy:
Buy: Enter a long position when a green triangle (buy signal) appears, indicating the price has crossed above the trend line and is above the daily VWAP.
Sell: Enter a short position (or exit a long) when a red triangle (sell signal) appears, indicating the price has crossed below the trend line and is below the daily VWAP.
Use the trend line and VWAP as dynamic support/resistance levels to set stop-losses or take-profit targets.
Backtesting: Use TradingView’s strategy tester to evaluate the indicator’s performance on your chosen market and timeframe, adjusting parameters like cooldown_bars and volatility_mult to optimize for profitability.
Example
On a 4-hour SOLUSDT chart, the DTI with VWAP Filter might show:
An uptrend with the price above the green trend line and above the daily VWAP, generating buy signals as the price continues to rise.
A downtrend where the price falls below the red trend line and the daily VWAP, generating sell signals that align with the bearish daily bias.
During choppy periods, the cooldown mechanism and VWAP filter reduce false signals, ensuring trades are taken only when the price aligns with the daily trend.
Limitations
Lagging Nature: Like all trend-following indicators, the DTI may lag during sharp price reversals, as the dynamic EMA needs time to adjust.
Ranging Markets: While the VWAP filter and cooldown mechanism reduce whipsaws, the indicator may still generate some false signals in strongly ranging markets. Combining it with a trend strength filter (e.g., ADX) can help.
VWAP Dependency: The effectiveness of the VWAP filter depends on the market’s respect for the daily VWAP as a support/resistance level. In markets with low volume or erratic price action, the VWAP may be less reliable.
Potential Improvements
VWAP Buffer: Add a percentage buffer around the VWAP (e.g., require the price to be 1% above/below) to further reduce noise.
Multi-Timeframe VWAP: Incorporate a weekly VWAP for additional trend confirmation on longer timeframes.
Trend Strength Filter: Add an ADX filter to ensure signals are generated only during strong trends (e.g., ADX > 25).
Low Liquidity Zones [PhenLabs]📊 Low Liquidity Zones
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
Low Liquidity Zones identifies and highlights periods of unusually low trading volume on your chart, marking areas where price movement occurred with minimal participation. These zones often represent potential support and resistance levels that may be more susceptible to price breakouts or reversals when revisited with higher volume.
Unlike traditional volume analysis tools that focus on high volume spikes, this indicator specializes in detecting low liquidity areas where price moved with minimal resistance. Each zone displays its volume delta, providing insight into buying vs. selling pressure during these thin liquidity periods. This combination of low volume detection and delta analysis helps traders identify potential price inefficiencies and weak structures in the market.
🚀 Points of Innovation
• Identifies low liquidity zones that most volume indicators overlook but which often become significant technical levels
• Displays volume delta within each zone, showing net buying/selling pressure during low liquidity periods
• Dynamically adjusts to different timeframes, allowing analysis across multiple time horizons
• Filters zones by maximum size percentage to focus only on precise price levels
• Maintains historical zones until they expire based on your lookback settings, creating a cumulative map of potential support/resistance areas
🔧 Core Components
• Low Volume Detection: Identifies candles where volume falls below a specified threshold relative to recent average volume, highlighting potential liquidity gaps.
• Volume Delta Analysis: Calculates and displays the net buying/selling pressure within each low liquidity zone, providing insight into the directional bias during low participation periods.
• Dynamic Timeframe Adjustment: Automatically scales analysis periods to match your selected timeframe preference, ensuring consistent identification of low liquidity zones regardless of chart settings.

✅ Best Use Cases
• Identifying potential support and resistance levels that formed during periods of thin liquidity
• Spotting price inefficiencies where larger players may have moved price with minimal volume
• Finding low-volume consolidation areas that may serve as breakout or reversal zones when revisited
• Locating potential stop-hunting zones where price moved on minimal participation
• Complementing traditional support/resistance analysis with volume context
⚠️ Limitations
• Requires volume data to function; will not work on symbols where the data provider doesn’t supply volume information
• Low volume zones don’t guarantee future support/resistance - they simply highlight potential areas of interest
• Works best on liquid instruments where volume data has meaningful fluctuations
• Historical analysis is limited by the maximum allowed box count (500) in TradingView
• Volume delta in some markets may not perfectly reflect buying vs. selling pressure due to data limitations
💡 What Makes This Unique
• Focus on Low Volume: Unlike some indicators that highlight high volume events particularly like our very own TLZ indicator, this tool specifically identifies potentially significant price zones that formed with minimal participation.
• Delta + Low Volume Integration: Combines volume delta analysis with low volume detection to reveal directional bias during thin liquidity periods.
• Flexible Lookback System: The dynamic timeframe system allows analysis across any timeframe while maintaining consistent zone identification criteria.
• Support/Resistance Zone Generation: Automatically builds a visual map of potential technical levels based on volume behavior rather than just price patterns.
🔬 How It Works
1. Volume Baseline Calculation:
The indicator calculates a moving average of volume over your specified period to establish a baseline for normal market participation. This adaptive baseline accounts for natural volume fluctuations across different market conditions.
2. Low Volume Detection:
Each candle’s volume is compared to the moving average and flagged when it falls below your threshold divisor. The indicator also filters zones by maximum size to ensure only precise price levels are highlighted.
3. Volume Delta Integration:
For each identified low volume candle, the indicator retrieves the volume delta from a lower timeframe. This delta value is formatted with appropriate scaling (K/M) and displayed within the zone.
4. Zone Management:
New zones are created and tracked in a dynamic array, with each zone extending rightward until it expires. The system automatically removes expired zones based on your lookback period to maintain a clean chart.
💡 Note:
Low liquidity zones often represent areas where price moved with minimal participation, which can indicate potential market inefficiencies. These zones frequently become important support/resistance levels when revisited, especially if approached with higher volume. Consider using this indicator alongside traditional technical analysis tools for comprehensive market context. For best results, experiment with different volume threshold settings based on the specific instrument’s typical volume patterns.

Massive Market Order Detector by GSK-VIZAG-AP-INDIA
Massive Market Order Detector by GSK-VIZAG-AP-INDIA
Purpose of the Indicator:
This indicator is designed to detect massive market orders (high-volume trades) in real-time, helping traders identify potential accumulation or distribution zones. It highlights sudden spikes in volume that exceed a calculated threshold, signaling strong buying or selling pressure.
Core Logic & Unique Aspects:
Volume Spike Detection: Compares the current volume to the average volume over a user-defined lookback period. If the volume exceeds the threshold (calculated using a multiplier), it is classified as a Massive Order.
Buy vs. Sell Order Identification: Determines whether the detected massive order is a buy (green marker) or a sell (red marker) based on candlestick price action.
Time Zone Adjustment: Allows traders to adjust the timestamp according to their local timezone, ensuring accurate interpretation of order timings.
Table Display of Recent Orders: A table is created within the chart to list the last 15 detected massive orders, showing key details such as time, volume, type (buy/sell), price, and volume percentage change.
How It Works:
The indicator calculates the average volume over a lookback period (default: 20 bars).
If the current volume exceeds the threshold (average volume × multiplier), it is marked as a Massive Order.
The order is classified as:
Massive Buy Order (MB) → If the closing price is higher than the opening price.
Massive Sell Order (MS) → If the closing price is lower than the opening price.
The detected orders are visually represented as green (MB) and red (MS) labels on the chart.
The most recent 15 massive orders are logged in a table for easy reference.
Intended Use Cases:
🔹 Scalping & Intraday Trading – Spot unusual market activity to enter or exit trades quickly.
🔹 Swing Trading – Identify strong buying or selling pressure at key support/resistance levels.
🔹 Breakout Confirmation – Validate if price breakouts are backed by significant volume.
🔹 Market Manipulation Detection – Recognize potential institutional buying/selling activity.
Input settings:
Lookback Period: Adjust the number of bars to calculate average volume.
Volume Multiplier: Set the threshold as 1/2/3 for defining a massive order.
Time Zone Offset: Modify timestamps to match your local market time.
Max Signals in Table: Control how many signals are displayed in the table.
