Sessions [Plug&Play]This indicator automatically highlights the three major FX trading sessions—Asia, London, and New York—on your chart and, at the close of each session, draws right-extended horizontal rays at that session’s high and low. It’s designed to help you visually identify when price is trading within each session’s range and to quickly see where the highest and lowest prices occurred before the next major session begins.
Key Features:
Session Boxes
Draws a semi-transparent box around each session’s timeframe (Asia, London, New York) based on your local UTC offset.
Each box dynamically expands in real time: as new candles form during the session, the box’s top and bottom edges update to match the highest high and lowest low seen so far in that session.
When the session ends, the box remains on your chart, anchored to the exact candles that formed its boundaries.
High/Low Rays
As soon as a session closes (e.g., London session ends at 17:00 UTC+0 by default), two horizontal rays are drawn at that session’s final high and low.
These rays are “pinned” to the exact candles where the high/low occurred, so they stay in place when you scroll or zoom.
Each ray extends indefinitely to the right, providing a clear reference of the key supply/demand levels created during that session.
Session Labels
Optionally places a small “London,” “New York,” or “Asia” label at the top edge of each completed session’s box.
Labels are horizontally centered within the session’s box and use a contrasting, easy-to-read font color.
Customizable Appearance
Show/Hide Each Session: Toggle display of London, New York, and Asia sessions separately.
Time Ranges: By default, London is 08:00–17:00 (UTC), New York is 13:00–22:00 (UTC), and Asia is 00:00–07:00 (UTC). You can override each session’s start/end times using the “Time Range” picker.
Color & Opacity: Assign custom colors to each session. Choose a global “Dark,” “Medium,” or “Light” opacity preset to adjust box fill transparency and border shading.
Show/Hide Labels & Outlines: Turn the text labels and the box borders on or off independently.
UTC Offset Support
If your local broker feed or price data is not in UTC, simply adjust the “UTC Offset (+/–)” input. The indicator will recalculate session start/end times relative to your chosen offset.
How to Use:
Add the Indicator:
Open TradingView’s Pine Editor, paste in this script, and click “Add to Chart.”
By default, you’ll see three translucent boxes appear once each session begins (Asia, London, New York).
Watch in Real Time:
As soon as a session starts, its box will appear anchored to the first candle. The top and bottom of the box expand if new extremes occur.
When the session closes, the final box remains visible and two horizontal rays mark that session’s high and low.
Analyze Key Levels:
Use the high- and low-level rays to gauge session liquidity zones—areas where stop orders, breakouts, or reversals often occur.
For example, if London’s high is significantly above current price, it may act as resistance in the New York session.
Customize to Your Needs:
Toggle specific sessions on/off (e.g., if you only care about London and New York).
Change each session’s color to match your chart theme.
Adjust the “UTC Offset” so sessions align with your local time.
Disable labels or box borders if you prefer a cleaner look.
Inputs Overview:
Show London/New York/Asia Session (bool): Show or hide each session’s box and its high/low rays.
Time Range (session): Defines the start/end of each session in “HHMM–HHMM” (24h) format.
Colour (color): Custom color for each session’s box fill, border, and high/low rays.
Show Session Labels (bool): Toggle the “London,” “New York,” “Asia” text that appears at the top of each completed box.
Show Range Outline (bool): Toggle the box border (if off, only a translucent fill is drawn).
Opacity Preset (Dark/Medium/Light): Controls transparency of box fill and border.
UTC Offset (+/–) (int): Adjusts session times for different time zones (e.g., +1 for UTC+1).
Why It’s Useful:
Quickly Identify Session Activity: Visually distinguish when each major trading session is active, then compare price action across sessions.
Pinpoint High/Low Liquidity Levels: Drawn rays highlight where the market hit its extremes—critical zones for stop orders or breakout entries.
Multi-Timeframe Context: By seeing historical session boxes and rays, you can locate recurring supply/demand areas, overlap zones, or session re-tests.
Fully Automated Workflow: Once added to your chart, the script does all the work of tracking session boundaries and drawing high/low lines—no manual box or line drawing necessary.
Example Use Cases:
London Breakout Traders: See where London’s high/low formed, then wait for price to revisit those levels during the New York session.
Range Breakout Strategies: If price consolidates inside the London box, use the boxed extremes as immediate targets for breakout entries.
Intraday Liquidity Swings: During quieter hours, watch Asia’s high/low to identify potential support/resistance before London’s opening.
Overlap Zones: Compare London’s range with Asia’s range to find areas of confluence—high-probability reversal or continuation zones.

[TehThomas] - Fair Value GapsThis script is designed to automatically detect and visualize Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on your chart in a clean, intuitive, and highly responsive way. It’s built with active traders in mind, offering both dynamic updates and customization options that help you stay focused on price action without being distracted by outdated or irrelevant information.
What Are Fair Value Gaps?
Fair Value Gaps are areas on a chart where there’s an inefficiency in price, typically formed when price moves aggressively in one direction, leaving a gap between the wicks of consecutive candles. These gaps represent imbalanced price action where not all buy or sell orders were efficiently matched. As a result, they often become magnet zones where price returns later to "fill" the imbalance before continuing in its intended direction. Many traders use them as points of interest for entries, re-entries, or anticipating reversals and consolidations.
This concept is frequently used in Smart Money and ICT-based trading models, where understanding how price seeks efficiency is crucial to anticipating future moves. When combined with concepts like liquidity, displacement, and market structure, FVGs become powerful tools for technical decision-making.
Script Features & Functionality
1. Live Updating Gaps (Dynamic Shrinking)
One of the core features of this script is its ability to track and dynamically shrink Fair Value Gaps as price trades into them. Instead of leaving a static zone on your chart, the gap will adjust in real-time, reflecting the portion that has been filled. This gives you a much more accurate picture of remaining imbalance and avoids misleading zones.
2. Automatic Cleanup After Fill
Once price fully fills an FVG, the script automatically removes it from the chart. This helps keep your workspace clean and focused only on relevant price zones. There’s no need to manually manage your gaps, everything is handled behind the scenes to reduce clutter and distraction.
3. Static Mode Option
While dynamic updating is the default, some traders may prefer to keep the original size of the gap visible even after partial fills. For that reason, the script includes a toggle to switch from live-updating (shrinking) mode to static mode. In static mode, FVGs stay fixed from the moment they are drawn, giving you a more traditional visual reference point.
4. Multi-Timeframe Support (MTF)
You can now view higher timeframe FVGs, such as those from the 1H or 4H chart, while analyzing lower timeframes like the 5-minute. This allows you to see key imbalances from broader market context without having to flip between charts. FVGs from higher timeframes will be drawn distinctly so you can differentiate them at a glance.
5. Cleaner Visualization
The script is designed with clarity in mind. All drawings are streamlined, and filled gaps are removed to maintain a minimal, distraction-free chart. This makes it easier to combine this tool with other indicators or price-action-based strategies without overloading your workspace.
6. Suitable for All Market Types
This script can be used on any asset that displays candlestick-based price action — including crypto, forex, indices, and stocks. Whether you're scalping low-timeframe setups or swing trading with a higher timeframe bias, FVGs remain a useful concept and this script adapts to your trading style.
Use Case Examples
On a 5-minute chart, display 1-hour FVGs to catch major imbalance zones during intraday trading.
Combine the FVGs with liquidity levels and inducement patterns to build ICT-style trade setups.
Use live-updating gaps to monitor in-progress fills and evaluate whether a zone still holds validity.
Set the script to static mode to perform backtesting or visual replay with historical setups.
Final Notes
Fair Value Gaps are not a standalone trading signal, but when used with market structure, liquidity, displacement, and order flow concepts, they provide high-probability trade locations that align with institutional-style trading models. This script simplifies the visualization of those zones so you can react faster, stay focused on clean setups, and eliminate unnecessary distractions.
Whether you’re trading high volatility breakouts or patiently waiting for retracements into unfilled imbalances, this tool is designed to support your edge with precision and flexibility.
Apex Edge - Session Sweep ProApex Edge Session Sweep Pro
By Apex Edge | 2025 Edition
🔍 What is it?
The Apex Session Sweep Pro is a precision trading tool designed for identifying high-probability liquidity sweep entries during key global market sessions. It combines powerful sweep detection logic with dynamic candle colouring, session visualization, TP projections, and real-time alerts — all within a clean, performance-optimized Pine Script engine.
This is not your average session box indicator. This is Apex-grade.
⚙️ How it Works
The indicator detects session liquidity sweeps by tracking price action relative to previous session highs and lows. When a session high/low is swept (i.e., price breaches it and then closes in the opposite direction), it generates a signal:
Buy Signal → Price sweeps previous low and closes back above it
Sell Signal → Price sweeps previous high and closes back below it
Each session is boxed on the chart (Tokyo, London, New York, Sydney), color-coded, and dynamically labelled.
Upon detecting a valid sweep, the script:
Plots a small entry label (toggleable)
Projects up to 5 customizable TP levels
Coloured candles for visual trade direction
Alerts for Buy or Sell sweep signals (optional)
All elements are memory-managed and customizable to suit your trading style.
🧠 Key Features
✅ Smart Sweep Detection Logic
✅ Global Market Session Boxes (Custom Times)
✅ Toggleable Entry Labels + TP Levels
✅ Candle Colouring by Signal
✅ Manual TP input + TP toggles
✅ Real-time Alerts for Apex entries
🕒 Why Are My Sessions Offset?
Your chart’s time zone may be different from UTC. This script is UTC-based by design, so if your chart is set to UTC+1, for example, the sessions will appear one hour later. Either:
Adjust your chart to UTC or or Exchange for perfect alignment,
Or tweak the session input times manually.
🧰 Who is this for?
This tool is made for:
Intraday traders looking for sweeps into liquidity
SMC (Smart Money Concept) strategists
Forex, crypto, and indices traders
Anyone who uses session-based levels to define entries
Whether you scalp London or ride NY swings, this tool frames each session cleanly — and shows you where the traps are laid.

Change in State of Delivery (CISD) [SB Instant]🧠 Modified by SB | Core Logic by LuxAlgo
🔗 Licensed under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0
Change in State of Delivery (CISD) is a concept rooted in observing shifts in order flow behavior, designed to detect the first signs of trend exhaustion and potential reversal. This model tracks when the current delivery (trend) structure — bullish or bearish — is violated by an opposing force, signaling a potential change in market intent.
In simple terms:
A Bullish CISD is triggered when sellers fail to maintain control, and buyers break above a delivery line.
A Bearish CISD is triggered when buyers fail, and sellers break below a delivery line.
This version uses real-time logic, triggering alerts immediately on break, rather than waiting for candle-close confirmation — giving faster, actionable signals to precision-driven traders.
⚙️ Core Features
Detection Modes
Classic: Traditional swing-based structural break detection
Liquidity Sweep: Logic incorporating wick sweeps (liquidity grabs)
Custom Parameters
Swing Length: Number of candles used to identify swing points
Minimum CISD Duration: Minimum length required for valid delivery phase
Maximum Swing Validity: How long the structure remains valid for potential breaks
Visual Options
Label and line styling options
Solid line = Initial break of delivery structure
Dashed line = Continuation break in the same trend direction
This allows you to visually differentiate a new reversal vs. a continuation of the existing trend.
🚨 Built-in Alerts
Bullish CISD Detected (Instant)
Bearish CISD Detected (Instant)
These alerts fire immediately when structure is broken, offering early confirmation for aggressive or reactive trade setups.
🔔 IMPORTANT:
If an alert triggers but the delivery line is not present, wait for the price to form the CISD label again and manually mark the price level using a horizontal ray. This ensures you are trading from a clearly defined structure.
🕒 Recommended Timeframes
✅ Use 30-Minute or 4-Hour charts to identify high-confidence CISD zones
🎯 Then drop to the 1-Minute or 5-Minute chart for precise entry execution
This top-down approach aligns higher timeframe narrative with lower timeframe entry triggers, increasing your edge in both timing and context.
🧠 How to Use CISD Effectively
Bullish Scenario:
Watch for breaks above bearish delivery structures, especially if confirmed with:
Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
The Strat 2-2 reversal
MSS (Market Structure Shift)
Bearish Scenario:
Look for breaks below bullish delivery setups in alignment with:
BOS (Break of Structure)
The Strat 3-1-2
Bearish liquidity sweeps
Key Tip:
Solid line = Initial CISD (new shift)
Dashed line = Continuation of current trend
This visual distinction helps you determine when a market is shifting vs. extending.

SMT Divergence ICT 02 [TradingFinder] Smart Money Technique SMC🔵 Introduction
SMT Divergence (Smart Money Technique Divergence) is a price action-based trading concept that detects discrepancies in market behavior between two assets that are generally expected to move in the same direction. Rooted in ICT (Inner Circle Trader) methodology, this approach helps traders recognize subtle signs of market manipulation or imbalance, often ahead of traditional indicators.
The core idea behind SMT divergence is simple: when two correlated instruments—such as currency pairs, indices, or assets from the same sector—start forming different swing points (highs or lows), this can reveal a lack of confirmation in the trend. Such divergence is often a precursor to a price reversal or pause in momentum.
This technique works effectively across various markets including Forex, stocks, and cryptocurrencies. It’s particularly valuable when used alongside concepts like liquidity sweeps, market structure breaks (MSBs), or order block identification.
In advanced use cases, Sequential SMT helps uncover patterns of alternating divergences across sessions, often signaling engineered liquidity traps before price reacts.
When combined with the Quarterly Theory—which segments market behavior into Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal phases—traders gain insight not only into where divergence happens, but when it's most likely to be significant within the market cycle.
Bullish SMT :
Bullish SMT Divergence occurs when one asset prints a higher low while the correlated asset forms a lower low. This asymmetry often suggests that the downside move is losing strength, hinting at a potential bullish shift.
Bearish SMT :
Bearish SMT Divergence is formed when one asset creates a higher high, while the second asset fails to confirm by printing a lower high. This typically signals weakening bullish pressure and the possibility of a reversal to the downside.
🔵 How to Use
The SMT Divergence indicator is designed to detect imbalances between two positively correlated assets—such as major currency pairs, indices, or commodities. These divergences often indicate early signs of market inefficiency or smart money manipulation and can help traders anticipate trend shifts with higher precision.
Unlike traditional divergence indicators or earlier versions of this script, this upgraded version does not rely solely on consecutive pivot comparisons. Instead, it dynamically scans all available pivots within the chart to identify divergences at any structural level—major or minor—across the price action. This broader detection method increases the reliability and frequency of meaningful SMT signals.
Moreover, when integrated with Sequential SMT logic, the indicator is capable of identifying multiple divergence sequences across sessions. These sequences often signal engineered liquidity traps and can be mapped within the Quarterly Theory framework, allowing traders to pinpoint not just the presence of divergence but also the phase of the market cycle it appears in (Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, or Continuation).
🟣 Bullish SMT Divergence
This signal occurs when the primary asset forms a higher low, while the correlated asset forms a lower low. This pattern implies weakening bearish momentum and a potential shift to the upside.
If the correlated asset breaks its previous low but the primary asset does not, this divergence suggests absorption of selling pressure and possible accumulation by smart money—making it a strong bullish signal, especially when aligned with a favorable market phase (e.g., the end of a manipulation phase in Q2).
🟣 Bearish SMT Divergence
This signal occurs when the primary asset creates a higher high, while the correlated asset forms a lower high. This mismatch indicates fading bullish momentum and a potential reversal to the downside.
If the correlated asset fails to confirm a breakout made by the main asset, the divergence may point to distribution or exhaustion. When seen within Q3 or Q4 phases of the Quarterly Theory, this pattern often precedes sharp declines or fake-outs engineered by smart money

[TehThomas] - ICT Inversion Fair value Gap (IFVG) The Inversion Fair Value Gap (IFVG) indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders who utilize ICT (Inner Circle Trader) strategies. It focuses on identifying and displaying Inversion Fair Value Gaps, which are critical zones that emerge when traditional Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) are invalidated by price action. These gaps represent key areas where price often reacts, making them essential for identifying potential reversals, trend continuations, and liquidity zones.
What Are Inversion Fair Value Gaps?
Inversion Fair Value Gaps occur when price revisits a traditional FVG and breaks through it, effectively flipping its role in the market. For example:
A bullish FVG that is invalidated becomes a bearish zone, often acting as resistance.
A bearish FVG that is invalidated transforms into a bullish zone, serving as support.
These gaps are significant because they often align with institutional trading activity. They highlight areas where large orders have been executed or where liquidity has been targeted. Understanding these gaps provides traders with a deeper insight into market structure and helps them anticipate future price movements with greater accuracy.
Why This Strategy Works
The IFVG concept is rooted in ICT principles, which emphasize liquidity dynamics, market inefficiencies, and institutional order flow. Traditional FVGs represent imbalances in price action caused by gaps between candles. When these gaps are invalidated, they become inversion zones that can act as magnets for price. These zones frequently serve as high-probability areas for price reversals or trend continuations.
This strategy works because it aligns with how institutional traders operate. Inversion gaps often mark areas of interest for "smart money," making them reliable indicators of potential market turning points. By focusing on these zones, traders can align their strategies with institutional behavior and improve their overall trading edge.
How the Indicator Works
This indicator simplifies the process of identifying and tracking IFVGs by automating their detection and visualization on the chart. It scans the chart in real-time to identify bullish and bearish FVGs that meet user-defined thresholds for inversion. Once identified, these gaps are dynamically displayed on the chart with distinct colors for bullish and bearish zones.
The indicator also tracks whether these gaps are mitigated or broken by price action. When an IFVG is broken, it extends the zone for a user-defined number of bars to visualize its potential role as a new support or resistance level. Additionally, alerts can be enabled to notify traders when new IFVGs form or when existing ones are broken, ensuring timely decision-making in fast-moving markets.
Key Features
Automatic Detection: The indicator automatically identifies bullish and bearish IFVGs based on user-defined thresholds.
Dynamic Visualization: It displays IFVGs directly on the chart with customizable colors for easy differentiation.
Real-Time Updates: The status of each IFVG is updated dynamically based on price action.
Zone Extensions: Broken IFVGs are extended to visualize their potential as support or resistance levels.
Alerts: Notifications can be set up to alert traders when key events occur, such as the formation or breaking of an IFVG.
These features make the tool highly efficient and reduce the need for manual analysis, allowing traders to focus on execution rather than tedious chart work.
Benefits of Using This Indicator
The IFVG indicator offers several advantages that make it an indispensable tool for ICT traders. By automating the detection of inversion gaps, it saves time and reduces errors in analysis. The clearly defined zones improve risk management by providing precise entry points, stop-loss levels, and profit targets based on market structure.
This tool is also highly versatile and adapts seamlessly across different timeframes. Whether you’re scalping lower timeframes or swing trading higher ones, it provides actionable insights tailored to your trading style. Furthermore, by aligning your strategy with institutional logic, you gain a significant edge in anticipating market movements.
Practical Applications
This indicator can be used across various trading styles:
Scalping: Identify quick reversal points on lower timeframes using real-time alerts.
Day Trading: Use inversion gaps as key levels for intraday support/resistance or trend continuation setups.
Swing Trading: Analyse higher timeframes to identify major inversion zones that could act as critical turning points in larger trends.
By integrating this tool into your trading routine, you can streamline your analysis process and focus on executing high-probability setups.
Conclusion
The Inversion Fair Value Gap (IFVG) indicator is more than just a technical analysis tool—it’s a strategic ally for traders looking to refine their edge in the markets. By automating the detection and tracking of inversion gaps based on ICT principles, it simplifies complex market analysis while maintaining accuracy and depth. Whether you’re new to ICT strategies or an experienced trader seeking greater precision, this indicator will elevate your trading game by aligning your approach with institutional behavior.
If you’re serious about improving your trading results while saving time and effort, this tool is an essential addition to your toolkit. It provides clarity in chaotic markets, enhances precision in trade execution, and ensures you never miss critical opportunities in your trading journey.

Key Features:
Supertrend for detecting market direction (bullish or bearish).
MACD for momentum confirmation, highlighting changes in market momentum.
RSI to filter out overbought/oversold conditions and ensure high-quality trades.
ATR as a volatility filter to adjust for changing market conditions.
OBV (On-Balance Volume) to confirm volume strength and trend validity.
Dynamic Stop-Loss & Take-Profit based on ATR to manage risk and lock profits.
This indicator is tailored for intraday traders looking for quick market moves, especially in volatile and high liquidity assets like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). It helps traders capture short-term trends with efficient risk management tools.
How to Apply:
Set Your Chart: Apply the AI Trend Momentum Sniper to a 5-minute (M5) or 15-minute (M15) chart for optimal performance.
Buy Signal: When the indicator generates a green arrow below the bar, it indicates a buy signal based on positive trend and momentum alignment.
Sell Signal: A red arrow above the bar signals a sell condition when the trend and momentum shift bearish.
Stop-Loss and Take-Profit: The indicator automatically calculates dynamic stop-loss and take-profit levels based on the ATR value for each trade, ensuring proper risk management.
Alerts: Set up custom alerts for buy or sell signals, and get notified instantly when opportunities arise.
Best Markets for Use:
BTC/USDT, ETH/USDT – High liquidity and volatility.
Major altcoins with sufficient volume.
Avoid using it on low-liquidity assets where price action may become erratic.
Timeframes:
This indicator is best suited for lower timeframes (5-minute to 15-minute charts) to capture quick price movements in trending markets.
Vortex Candle MarkerVortex Candle Marker
The Vortex Candle Marker is a specialized TradingView indicator designed to identify and highlight **Vortex Candles**—candles that momentarily form without wicks on either the high or low. This unique price behavior can signal potential price retracements or reversals, aligning with the **Power of Three (PO3)** concept in price action theory.
Indicator Logic:
A candle is classified as a **Vortex Candle** if either of these conditions is met during its formation:
1. **Vortex Top:** The **high** equals either the **open** or **close**, indicating no upper wick.
2. **Vortex Bottom:** The **low** equals either the **open** or **close**, indicating no lower wick.
When a Vortex Candle is detected, the indicator changes the **candle border color** to **aqua**, making it easy to identify these significant price moments.
Market Insight & PO3 Interpretation:
In typical price behavior, most candles exhibit both upper and lower wicks, representing price exploration before settling at a closing value. A candle forming without a wick suggests **strong directional intent** at that moment. However, by the **Power of Three (PO3)** concept—Accumulation, Manipulation, and Distribution—such wickless formations often imply:
- **Price Reversion Likelihood:** When a candle temporarily forms without a wick, it suggests the market may **revisit the opening price** to establish a wick before the candle closes.
- **Liquidity Manipulation:** The absence of a wick may indicate a **stop-hunt** or liquidity grab, where the price manipulates one side before reversing.
- **Entry Triggers:** Identifying these moments can help traders anticipate potential **retracements** or **continuations** within the PO3 framework.
Practical Application
- **Early Reversal Detection:** Spot potential price reversals by observing wickless candles forming at key levels.
- **Breakout Validation:** Use Vortex Candles to confirm **true breakouts** or **false moves** before the price returns.
- **Liquidity Zones:** Identify areas where the market is likely to revisit to create a wick, signaling entry/exit points.
This indicator is a powerful tool for traders applying **Po3** methodologies and seeking to capture price manipulation patterns.
Multiple AVWAP [OmegaTools]The Multiple AVWAP indicator is a sophisticated trading tool designed for professional traders who require precision in volume-weighted price tracking. This indicator allows for the deployment of multiple Anchored Volume Weighted Average Price (AVWAP) calculations simultaneously, offering deep insights into price movements, dynamic support and resistance levels, and trend structures across multiple timeframes.
This indicator caters to both institutional and retail traders by integrating flexible anchoring methods, multi-timeframe adaptability, and enhanced visualization features. It also includes deviation bands for statistical analysis, making it a comprehensive volume-based trading solution.
Key Features & Functionalities
1. Multiple AVWAP Configurations
Users can configure up to four distinct AVWAP calculations to track different market conditions.
Supports various anchoring methods:
Fixed: A traditional AVWAP that starts from a defined historical point.
Perpetual: A rolling VWAP that continuously adjusts over time.
Extension: An extension-based AVWAP that projects from past calculations.
High Volume: Anchors AVWAP to the highest volume bar within a specified period.
None: Option to disable AVWAP calculation if not required.
2. Advanced Deviation Bands
Implements standard deviation bands (1st and 2nd deviation) to provide a statistical measure of price dispersion from the AVWAP.
Serves as a dynamic method for identifying overbought and oversold conditions relative to VWAP pricing.
Deviation bands are customizable in terms of visibility, color, and transparency.
3. Multi-Timeframe Support
Users can assign different timeframes to each AVWAP calculation for macro and micro analysis.
Helps in identifying long-term institutional trading levels alongside short-term intraday trends.
4. Z-Score Normalization Mode
Option to standardize oscillator values based on AVWAP deviations.
Converts price movements into a statistical Z-score, allowing traders to measure price strength in a normalized range.
Helps in detecting extreme price dislocations and mean-reversion opportunities.
5. Customizable Visual & Aesthetic Settings
Fully customizable line colors, transparency, and thickness to enhance clarity.
Users can modify AVWAP and deviation band colors to distinguish between different levels.
Configurable display options to match personal trading preferences.
6. Oscillator Mode for Trend & Momentum Analysis
The indicator converts price deviations into an oscillator format, displaying AVWAP strength and weakness dynamically.
This provides traders with a momentum-based perspective on volume-weighted price movements.
User Guide & Implementation
1. Configuring AVWAPs for Optimal Use
Choose the mode for each AVWAP instance:
Fixed (set historical point)
Perpetual (rolling, continuously updated AVWAP)
Extension (projection from past AVWAP levels)
High Volume (anchored to highest volume bar)
None (disables the AVWAP line)
Adjust the length settings to fine-tune calculation sensitivity.
2. Utilizing Deviation Bands for Market Context
Activate deviation bands to see statistical boundaries of price action.
Monitor +1 / -1 and +2 / -2 standard deviation levels for extended price movements.
Consider price action outside of deviation bands as potential mean-reversion signals.
3. Multi-Timeframe Analysis for Institutional-Level Insights
Assign different timeframes to each AVWAP to compare:
Daily VWAP (institutional trading levels)
Weekly VWAP (swing trading trends)
Intraday VWAPs (short-term momentum shifts)
Helps identify where institutional liquidity is positioned relative to price.
4. Activating the Oscillator for Momentum & Bias Confirmation
The oscillator converts AVWAP deviations into a normalized value.
Use overbought/oversold levels to determine strength and potential reversals.
Combine with other indicators (RSI, MACD) for confluence-based trading decisions.
Trading Applications & Strategies
5. Trend Confirmation & Institutional VWAP Tracking
If price consistently holds above the primary AVWAP, it signals a bullish trend.
If price remains below AVWAP, it indicates selling pressure and a bearish trend.
Monitor retests of AVWAP levels for potential trend continuation or reversal.
6. Dynamic Support & Resistance Levels
AVWAP lines act as dynamic floating support and resistance zones.
Price bouncing off AVWAP suggests continuation, whereas breakdowns indicate a shift in momentum.
Look for confluence with high-volume zones for stronger trade signals.
7. Mean Reversion & Statistical Edge Trading
Prices that deviate beyond +2 or -2 standard deviations often revert toward AVWAP.
Mean reversion traders can fade extended moves and target AVWAP re-tests.
Helps in identifying exhaustion points in trending markets.
8. Institutional Liquidity & Volume Footprints
Institutions often execute large trades near VWAP zones, causing price reactions.
Tracking multi-timeframe AVWAP levels allows traders to anticipate key liquidity areas.
Use higher timeframe AVWAPs as macro support/resistance for swing trading setups.
9. Enhancing Momentum Trading with AVWAP Oscillator
The oscillator provides a momentum-based measure of AVWAP deviations.
Helps in confirming entry and exit timing for trend-following trades.
Useful for pairing with stochastic oscillators, MACD, or RSI to validate trade decisions.
Best Practices & Trading Tips
Use in Conjunction with Volume Analysis: Combine with volume profiles, OBV, or CVD for increased accuracy.
Adjust Timeframes Based on Trading Style: Scalpers can focus on short-term AVWAP, while swing traders benefit from weekly/daily AVWAP tracking.
Backtest Different AVWAP Configurations: Experiment with different anchoring methods and lookback periods to optimize trade performance.
Monitor Institutional Order Flow: Identify key VWAP zones where institutional traders may be active.
Use with Other Technical Indicators: Enhance trading confidence by integrating with moving averages, Bollinger Bands, or Fibonacci retracements.
Final Thoughts & Disclaimer
The Multiple AVWAP indicator provides a comprehensive approach to volume-weighted price tracking, making it ideal for professional traders. While this tool enhances market clarity and trade decision-making, it should be used as part of a well-rounded trading strategy with risk management principles in place.

TJR SEEK AND DESTROYTJR SEEK AND DESTROY – Intraday ICT Trading Tool
Built for day traders, TJR SEEK AND DESTROY combines Smart Money concepts like order blocks, fair value gaps, and liquidity sweeps with structure breaks and daily bias to pinpoint high-probability trades during US market hours (9:30–16:00). Ideal for scalping or intraday strategies on stocks, futures, or forex.
What Makes It Unique?
Unlike standalone ICT indicators, this script integrates:
Order Blocks with volume and range filters for precise support/resistance zones.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG) to spot pre-market price imbalances.
Break of Structure (BOS) and Liquidity Sweeps for trend and reversal signals.
A 1H MA-based Bias to align trades with the day’s direction.
BUY/SELL Labels triggered only when bias, BOS, and sweeps align, reducing noise.
How Does It Work?
Order Blocks: Marks zones with high volume (>1.5x 20-period SMA) and low range (<0.5x ATR20) as teal boxes—potential reversal points.
Fair Value Gap: Compares the prior day’s close to the current open (pre- or post-9:30), shown as a purple line and label (e.g., "FVG: 0.005").
Pivot Point: Calculates (prevHigh + prevLow + prevClose) / 3 from the prior day, plotted as an orange line for equilibrium.
Break of Structure: Detects crossovers of 5-bar highs/lows (gray lines), marked with red triangles.
Liquidity Sweeps: Tracks breaches of the prior day’s high/low (yellow lines), marked with yellow triangles.
Daily Bias: Uses 1H close vs. 20-period MA (blue line) for bullish (green background), bearish (red), or neutral (gray) context.
Signals: BUY (green label) when bias is bullish, price breaks up, and sweeps the prior high; SELL (red label) when bias is bearish, price breaks down, and sweeps the prior low.
How to Use It
Setup: Apply to 1M–15M charts for US session trading (9:30–16:00 EST).
Trading:
Wait for a BUY label after a yellow sweep triangle above the prior day’s high in a green (bullish) background.
Wait for a SELL label after a yellow sweep triangle below the prior day’s low in a red (bearish) background.
Use order blocks (teal boxes) as support/resistance for stop-loss or take-profit.
Markets: Best for SPY, ES futures, or forex pairs with US session volatility.
Underlying Concepts
Order Blocks: High-volume, low-range bars suggest institutional activity.
FVG: Gaps between close and open indicate imbalance to be filled.
BOS & Sweeps: Price breaking key levels signals momentum or stop-hunting.
Bias: 1H MA filters trades by broader trend.
Chart Setup
Displays order blocks (teal boxes), pivot (orange), open (purple), bias (colored background), BOS/sweeps (triangles), and signals (labels). Keep other indicators off for clarity.

Volume Metrics & Market CapitalizationThis Pine Script indicator provides a comparative view of volume metrics and market capitalization to help traders analyze relative volume strength in the context of a stock’s overall size.
Key Features:
Volume Formatting:
Converts numerical values into readable units (K for thousand, M for million, B for billion, T for trillion).
Volume Metrics:
Displays current bar volume, cumulative daily volume, and 30-day average volume.
Market Capitalization Calculation:
Uses the outstanding shares multiplied by closing price to estimate market cap.
Table Display:
Shows all these values in an easy-to-read table in the bottom-right of the chart.
How It Helps Compare Relative Volume to Market Cap
Relative Volume Strength
By comparing current volume and 30-day average volume, traders can quickly gauge if today’s volume is unusually high or low.
If daily volume exceeds the 30-day average, it suggests increased market interest in the stock.
Market Cap Context
Market cap provides a reference for whether a stock is large-cap, mid-cap, or small-cap, influencing how volume should be interpreted.
A high volume surge in a low market cap stock may indicate stronger momentum compared to the same volume change in a large-cap stock.
Liquidity and Volatility Signals
Comparing volume to market cap helps determine liquidity—stocks with low market cap but high volume may be more volatile.
Example: A small-cap stock with $50M market cap trading $20M daily volume is seeing 40% turnover, a significant indicator of strong movement.
Practical Use Case
Day Traders: Spot stocks experiencing unusual volume surges relative to their market cap, identifying potential breakout or momentum plays.
Swing Traders: Assess if a stock is trading at above-average volume levels, confirming strength in trends.
Investors: Understand liquidity and potential institutional interest in stocks, as larger players typically trade in high market-cap names with sustained volume.
This indicator is a quick-glance tool for identifying high-volume stocks relative to their size, helping traders make more informed decisions on potential opportunities. 🚀

Request█ OVERVIEW
This library is a tool for Pine Script™ programmers that consolidates access to a wide range of lesser-known data feeds available on TradingView, including metrics from the FRED database, FINRA short sale volume, open interest, and COT data. The functions in this library simplify requests for these data feeds, making them easier to retrieve and use in custom scripts.
█ CONCEPTS
Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED)
FRED (Federal Reserve Economic Data) is a comprehensive online database curated by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. It provides free access to extensive economic and financial data from U.S. and international sources. FRED includes numerous economic indicators such as GDP, inflation, employment, and interest rates. Additionally, it provides financial market data, regional statistics, and international metrics such as exchange rates and trade balances.
Sourced from reputable organizations, including U.S. government agencies, international institutions, and other public and private entities, FRED enables users to analyze over 825,000 time series, download their data in various formats, and integrate their information into analytical tools and programming workflows.
On TradingView, FRED data is available from ticker identifiers with the "FRED:" prefix. Users can search for FRED symbols in the "Symbol Search" window, and Pine scripts can retrieve data for these symbols via `request.*()` function calls.
FINRA Short Sale Volume
FINRA (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) is a non-governmental organization that supervises and regulates U.S. broker-dealers and securities professionals. Its primary aim is to protect investors and ensure integrity and transparency in financial markets.
FINRA's Short Sale Volume data provides detailed information about daily short-selling activity across U.S. equity markets. This data tracks the volume of short sales reported to FINRA's trade reporting facilities (TRFs), including shares sold on FINRA-regulated Alternative Trading Systems (ATSs) and over-the-counter (OTC) markets, offering transparent access to short-selling information not typically available from exchanges. This data helps market participants, researchers, and regulators monitor trends in short-selling and gain insights into bearish sentiment, hedging strategies, and potential market manipulation. Investors often use this data alongside other metrics to assess stock performance, liquidity, and overall trading activity.
It is important to note that FINRA's Short Sale Volume data does not consolidate short sale information from public exchanges and excludes trading activity that is not publicly disseminated.
TradingView provides ticker identifiers for requesting Short Sale Volume data with the format "FINRA:_SHORT_VOLUME", where "" is a supported U.S. equities symbol (e.g., "AAPL").
Open Interest (OI)
Open interest is a cornerstone indicator of market activity and sentiment in derivatives markets such as options or futures. In contrast to volume, which measures the number of contracts opened or closed within a period, OI measures the number of outstanding contracts that are not yet settled. This distinction makes OI a more robust indicator of how money flows through derivatives, offering meaningful insights into liquidity, market interest, and trends. Many traders and investors analyze OI alongside volume and price action to gain an enhanced perspective on market dynamics and reinforce trading decisions.
TradingView offers many ticker identifiers for requesting OI data with the format "_OI", where "" represents a derivative instrument's ticker ID (e.g., "COMEX:GC1!").
Commitment of Traders (COT)
Commitment of Traders data provides an informative weekly breakdown of the aggregate positions held by various market participants, including commercial hedgers, non-commercial speculators, and small traders, in the U.S. derivative markets. Tallied and managed by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) , these reports provide traders and analysts with detailed insight into an asset's open interest and help them assess the actions of various market players. COT data is valuable for gaining a deeper understanding of market dynamics, sentiment, trends, and liquidity, which helps traders develop informed trading strategies.
TradingView has numerous ticker identifiers that provide access to time series containing data for various COT metrics. To learn about COT ticker IDs and how they work, see our LibraryCOT publication.
█ USING THE LIBRARY
Common function characteristics
• This library's functions construct ticker IDs with valid formats based on their specified parameters, then use them as the `symbol` argument in request.security() to retrieve data from the specified context.
• Most of these functions automatically select the timeframe of a data request because the data feeds are not available for all timeframes.
• All the functions have two overloads. The first overload of each function uses values with the "simple" qualifier to define the requested context, meaning the context does not change after the first script execution. The second accepts "series" values, meaning it can request data from different contexts across executions.
• The `gaps` parameter in most of these functions specifies whether the returned data is `na` when a new value is unavailable for request. By default, its value is `false`, meaning the call returns the last retrieved data when no new data is available.
• The `repaint` parameter in applicable functions determines whether the request can fetch the latest unconfirmed values from a higher timeframe on realtime bars, which might repaint after the script restarts. If `false`, the function only returns confirmed higher-timeframe values to avoid repainting. The default value is `true`.
`fred()`
The `fred()` function retrieves the most recent value of a specified series from the Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED) database. With this function, programmers can easily fetch macroeconomic indicators, such as GDP and unemployment rates, and use them directly in their scripts.
How it works
The function's `fredCode` parameter accepts a "string" representing the unique identifier of a specific FRED series. Examples include "GDP" for the "Gross Domestic Product" series and "UNRATE" for the "Unemployment Rate" series. Over 825,000 codes are available. To access codes for available series, search the FRED website .
The function adds the "FRED:" prefix to the specified `fredCode` to construct a valid FRED ticker ID (e.g., "FRED:GDP"), which it uses in request.security() to retrieve the series data.
Example Usage
This line of code requests the latest value from the Gross Domestic Product series and assigns the returned value to a `gdpValue` variable:
float gdpValue = fred("GDP")
`finraShortSaleVolume()`
The `finraShortSaleVolume()` function retrieves EOD data from a FINRA Short Sale Volume series. Programmers can call this function to retrieve short-selling information for equities listed on supported exchanges, namely NASDAQ, NYSE, and NYSE ARCA.
How it works
The `symbol` parameter determines which symbol's short sale volume information is retrieved by the function. If the value is na , the function requests short sale volume data for the chart's symbol. The argument can be the name of the symbol from a supported exchange (e.g., "AAPL") or a ticker ID with an exchange prefix ("NASDAQ:AAPL"). If the `symbol` contains an exchange prefix, it must be one of the following: "NASDAQ", "NYSE", "AMEX", or "BATS".
The function constructs a ticker ID in the format "FINRA:ticker_SHORT_VOLUME", where "ticker" is the symbol name without the exchange prefix (e.g., "AAPL"). It then uses the ticker ID in request.security() to retrieve the available data.
Example Usage
This line of code retrieves short sale volume for the chart's symbol and assigns the result to a `shortVolume` variable:
float shortVolume = finraShortSaleVolume(syminfo.tickerid)
This example requests short sale volume for the "NASDAQ:AAPL" symbol, irrespective of the current chart:
float shortVolume = finraShortSaleVolume("NASDAQ:AAPL")
`openInterestFutures()` and `openInterestCrypto()`
The `openInterestFutures()` function retrieves EOD open interest (OI) data for futures contracts. The `openInterestCrypto()` function provides more granular OI data for cryptocurrency contracts.
How they work
The `openInterestFutures()` function retrieves EOD closing OI information. Its design is focused primarily on retrieving OI data for futures, as only EOD OI data is available for these instruments. If the chart uses an intraday timeframe, the function requests data from the "1D" timeframe. Otherwise, it uses the chart's timeframe.
The `openInterestCrypto()` function retrieves opening, high, low, and closing OI data for a cryptocurrency contract on a specified timeframe. Unlike `openInterest()`, this function can also retrieve granular data from intraday timeframes.
Both functions contain a `symbol` parameter that determines the symbol for which the calls request OI data. The functions construct a valid OI ticker ID from the chosen symbol by appending "_OI" to the end (e.g., "CME:ES1!_OI").
The `openInterestFutures()` function requests and returns a two-element tuple containing the futures instrument's EOD closing OI and a "bool" condition indicating whether OI is rising.
The `openInterestCrypto()` function requests and returns a five-element tuple containing the cryptocurrency contract's opening, high, low, and closing OI, and a "bool" condition indicating whether OI is rising.
Example usage
This code line calls `openInterest()` to retrieve EOD OI and the OI rising condition for a futures symbol on the chart, assigning the values to two variables in a tuple:
= openInterestFutures(syminfo.tickerid)
This line retrieves the EOD OI data for "CME:ES1!", irrespective of the current chart's symbol:
= openInterestFutures("CME:ES1!")
This example uses `openInterestCrypto()` to retrieve OHLC OI data and the OI rising condition for a cryptocurrency contract on the chart, sampled at the chart's timeframe. It assigns the returned values to five variables in a tuple:
= openInterestCrypto(syminfo.tickerid, timeframe.period)
This call retrieves OI OHLC and rising information for "BINANCE:BTCUSDT.P" on the "1D" timeframe:
= openInterestCrypto("BINANCE:BTCUSDT.P", "1D")
`commitmentOfTraders()`
The `commitmentOfTraders()` function retrieves data from the Commitment of Traders (COT) reports published by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). This function significantly simplifies the COT request process, making it easier for programmers to access and utilize the available data.
How It Works
This function's parameters determine different parts of a valid ticker ID for retrieving COT data, offering a streamlined alternative to constructing complex COT ticker IDs manually. The `metricName`, `metricDirection`, and `includeOptions` parameters are required. They specify the name of the reported metric, the direction, and whether it includes information from options contracts.
The function also includes several optional parameters. The `CFTCCode` parameter allows programmers to request data for a specific report code. If unspecified, the function requests data based on the chart symbol's root prefix, base currency, or quoted currency, depending on the `mode` argument. The call can specify the report type ("Legacy", "Disaggregated", or "Financial") and metric type ("All", "Old", or "Other") with the `typeCOT` and `metricType` parameters.
Explore the CFTC website to find valid report codes for specific assets. To find detailed information about the metrics included in the reports and their meanings, see the CFTC's Explanatory Notes .
View the function's documentation below for detailed explanations of its parameters. For in-depth information about COT ticker IDs and more advanced functionality, refer to our previously published COT library .

Example usage
This code line retrieves "Noncommercial Positions (Long)" data, without options information, from the "Legacy" report for the chart symbol's root, base currency, or quote currency:
float nonCommercialLong = commitmentOfTraders("Noncommercial Positions", "Long", false)
This example retrieves "Managed Money Positions (Short)" data, with options included, from the "Disaggregated" report:
float disaggregatedData = commitmentOfTraders("Managed Money Positions", "Short", true, "", "Disaggregated")
█ NOTES
• This library uses dynamic requests , allowing dynamic ("series") arguments for the parameters defining the context (ticker ID, timeframe, etc.) of a `request.*()` function call. With this feature, a single `request.*()` call instance can flexibly retrieve data from different feeds across historical executions. Additionally, scripts can use such calls in the local scopes of loops, conditional structures, and even exported library functions, as demonstrated in this script. All scripts coded in Pine Script™ v6 have dynamic requests enabled by default. To learn more about the behaviors and limitations of this feature, see the Dynamic requests section of the Pine Script™ User Manual.
• The library's example code offers a simple demonstration of the exported functions. The script retrieves available data using the function specified by the "Series type" input. The code requests a FRED series or COT (Legacy), FINRA Short Sale Volume, or Open Interest series for the chart's symbol with specific parameters, then plots the retrieved data as a step-line with diamond markers.
Look first. Then leap.
█ EXPORTED FUNCTIONS
This library exports the following functions:
fred(fredCode, gaps)
Requests a value from a specified Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED) series. FRED is a comprehensive source that hosts numerous U.S. economic datasets. To explore available FRED datasets and codes, search for specific categories or keywords at fred.stlouisfed.org Calls to this function count toward a script's `request.*()` call limit.
Parameters:
fredCode (series string) : The unique identifier of the FRED series. The function uses the value to create a valid ticker ID for retrieving FRED data in the format `"FRED:fredCode"`. For example, `"GDP"` refers to the "Gross Domestic Product" series ("FRED:GDP"), and `"GFDEBTN"` refers to the "Federal Debt: Total Public Debt" series ("FRED:GFDEBTN").
gaps (simple bool) : Optional. If `true`, the function returns a non-na value only when a new value is available from the requested context. If `false`, the function returns the latest retrieved value when new data is unavailable. The default is `false`.
Returns: (float) The value from the requested FRED series.
finraShortSaleVolume(symbol, gaps, repaint)
Requests FINRA daily short sale volume data for a specified symbol from one of the following exchanges: NASDAQ, NYSE, NYSE ARCA. If the chart uses an intraday timeframe, the function requests data from the "1D" timeframe. Otherwise, it uses the chart's timeframe. Calls to this function count toward a script's `request.*()` call limit.
Parameters:
symbol (series string) : The symbol for which to request short sale volume data. If the specified value contains an exchange prefix, it must be one of the following: "NASDAQ", "NYSE", "AMEX", "BATS".
gaps (simple bool) : Optional. If `true`, the function returns a non-na value only when a new value is available from the requested context. If `false`, the function returns the latest retrieved value when new data is unavailable. The default is `false`.
repaint (simple bool) : Optional. If `true` and the chart's timeframe is intraday, the value requested on realtime bars may change its time offset after the script restarts its executions. If `false`, the function returns the last confirmed period's values to avoid repainting. The default is `true`.
Returns: (float) The short sale volume for the specified symbol or the chart's symbol.
openInterestFutures(symbol, gaps, repaint)
Requests EOD open interest (OI) and OI rising information for a valid futures symbol. If the chart uses an intraday timeframe, the function requests data from the "1D" timeframe. Otherwise, it uses the chart's timeframe. Calls to this function count toward a script's `request.*()` call limit.
Parameters:
symbol (series string) : The symbol for which to request open interest data.
gaps (simple bool) : Optional. If `true`, the function returns non-na values only when new values are available from the requested context. If `false`, the function returns the latest retrieved values when new data is unavailable. The default is `false`.
repaint (simple bool) : Optional. If `true` and the chart's timeframe is intraday, the value requested on realtime bars may change its time offset after the script restarts its executions. If `false`, the function returns the last confirmed period's values to avoid repainting. The default is `true`.
Returns: ( ) A tuple containing the following values:
- The closing OI value for the symbol.
- `true` if the closing OI is above the previous period's value, `false` otherwise.
openInterestCrypto(symbol, timeframe, gaps, repaint)
Requests opening, high, low, and closing open interest (OI) data and OI rising information for a valid cryptocurrency contract on a specified timeframe. Calls to this function count toward a script's `request.*()` call limit.
Parameters:
symbol (series string) : The symbol for which to request open interest data.
timeframe (series string) : The timeframe of the data request. If the timeframe is lower than the chart's timeframe, it causes a runtime error.
gaps (simple bool) : Optional. If `true`, the function returns non-na values only when new values are available from the requested context. If `false`, the function returns the latest retrieved values when new data is unavailable. The default is `false`.
repaint (simple bool) : Optional. If `true` and the `timeframe` represents a higher timeframe, the function returns unconfirmed values from the timeframe on realtime bars, which repaint when the script restarts its executions. If `false`, it returns only confirmed higher-timeframe values to avoid repainting. The default is `true`.
Returns: ( ) A tuple containing the following values:
- The opening, high, low, and closing OI values for the symbol, respectively.
- `true` if the closing OI is above the previous period's value, `false` otherwise.
commitmentOfTraders(metricName, metricDirection, includeOptions, CFTCCode, typeCOT, mode, metricType)
Requests Commitment of Traders (COT) data with specified parameters. This function provides a simplified way to access CFTC COT data available on TradingView.

typeCOT (series string) : Optional. The type of report to request. Possible values are: "Legacy", "Disaggregated", "Financial". The default is "Legacy".
mode (series string) : Optional. Specifies the information the function extracts from a symbol. Possible modes are:
- "Root": The function extracts the futures symbol's root prefix information (e.g., "ES" for "ESH2020").
- "Base currency": The function extracts the first currency from a currency pair (e.g., "EUR" for "EURUSD").
- "Currency": The function extracts the currency of the symbol's quoted values (e.g., "JPY" for "TSE:9984" or "USDJPY").
- "Auto": The function tries the first three modes (Root -> Base currency -> Currency) until it finds a match.
The default is "Auto". If the specified mode is not available for the symbol, it causes a runtime error.
metricType (series string) : Optional. The metric type. Possible values are: "All", "Old", "Other". The default is "All".
Returns: (float) The specified Commitment of Traders data series. If no data is available, it causes a runtime error.

- Includes label displays to support visual analysis.
What Can It Do for You?
1. Identify Arbitrage Opportunities
By observing price differences (premiums) between exchanges, you can identify arbitrage opportunities.
Example: If Bitcoin is cheaper on Binance and more expensive on Coinbase, you could buy on Binance and sell on Coinbase to capture the price difference.
2. Understand Regional Supply and Demand Trends
Each exchange's premium reflects the supply and demand dynamics of its respective region.
Example: A high premium on Upbit may indicate excess demand or regulatory impacts in the South Korean market.
3. Analyze Liquidity
Price differences often highlight liquidity disparities between exchanges. Markets with lower trading volumes tend to have larger premiums due to price distortions.
4. Evaluate Macroeconomic Impacts
Premium movements may reflect changes in macroeconomic factors, such as exchange rates, regulations, or financial conditions specific to each region.
5. Analyze Trends and Market Sentiment
By tracking premium trends, you can gauge market sentiment and understand regional or exchange-specific behaviors to inform your investment decisions.
6. Support Strategic Trading
This tool is useful for short-term arbitrage strategies as well as long-term evaluations of market health.
Exchange Characteristics and Premium Implications
The meaning of premiums varies by exchange.
- Coinbase (US Market)
Primarily used by investors buying directly with fiat currency (USD). A higher premium often signals bullish sentiment among institutional and retail investors.
- Bitfinex (Global Market)
A trader-focused exchange with active large-scale and leveraged trading. Premiums may reflect liquidity and risk appetite.
- Upbit (South Korean Market)
Priced in KRW, making it subject to forex rates and local market dynamics. High premiums may indicate strong demand or regulatory influences in South Korea.
- Binance (Global Market)
The largest exchange by trading volume. Premiums here are often a reflection of the overall market balance.
Notes
- This indicator is for reference only and does not guarantee trading decisions.
- Please consider the characteristics and conditions of each exchange when using this tool.
First day candle high and low of monthThis script is designed to mark the high and low levels of the first candle of each month on the chart. These levels are often considered significant support and resistance zones, as they can represent key liquidity points in the market.
The idea behind this tool is based on the observation that the low of the first monthly candle can act as a critical support level, especially during a bullish market trend. If the price breaks below this low in a bull market, it may indicate a potential manipulation or stop-loss hunting rather than a genuine shift in trend. Similarly, the high of the first monthly candle may serve as a key resistance level, particularly in consolidating or range-bound markets.
By dynamically plotting these levels, the script provides traders with valuable insights into potential liquidity zones and significant market reactions. It allows for customizable line colors and lengths, making it adaptable to various trading styles and preferences.
This tool is particularly useful for traders who wish to align their strategies with institutional market behaviors, as it highlights areas where liquidity is likely to be targeted. Use it as part of your broader analysis to identify potential trade setups, manage risk effectively, and understand market dynamics more comprehensively.
M2 Money Shift for Bitcoin [SAKANE]M2 Money Shift for Bitcoin was developed to visualize the impact of M2 Money, a macroeconomic indicator, on the Bitcoin market and to support trade analysis.
