Whale VWAP HeatmapWhat it does
This indicator paints a heatmap around an anchored VWAP to make market context obvious at a glance.
Above VWAP → cyan background
Below VWAP → amber background
The farther price is from VWAP (in %), the stronger the color intensity.
How it works
Uses an anchored VWAP that resets on the period you choose (Session / Week / Month / Quarter / Year / Decade / Century / Earnings / Dividends / Splits).
Computes the percentage distance between price and VWAP, then maps that distance to background opacity.
Optional VWAP line can be shown/hidden.
Inputs (Settings)
Anchor Period — choose when VWAP resets (Session→Year, plus E/D/S options).
Source — price source (default hlc3).
Hide on D/W/M (Session only) — hides the script on Daily/Weekly/Monthly when anchor=Session (avoids NA behavior).
Enable Heatmap — turn background coloring on/off.
Max distance for full color (%) — at/above this % from VWAP, color hits full intensity (typical 0.5–2% depending on volatility).
Show VWAP Line / Line Color/Width — visual preference.
How to read it (quick playbook)
Context first: color tells you if price is trading above/below “fair value” (VWAP).
Intensity = how stretched price is from VWAP.
Use it to frame bias (above/below VWAP) and to avoid chasing extended moves.
Notes & limitations
Requires volume (VWAP is volume-weighted). If the data vendor doesn’t provide volume for the symbol, the script will stop.
For intraday, Session anchor is common. For swing/context, try Week or Month.

What is VWAP?
The Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) is the average price of a period weighted by traded volume. It’s used as a fair-value reference (mean) and resets at the start of each new period.
Included VWAP Modes
Session — resets each trading day (current session).
Week / Month / Quarter / Year — current calendar periods.
Anchored Week / Month / Quarter / Year — starts at the beginning of the previous completed period.
Rolling 7D / 30D / 90D — rolling windows: today + last 6/29/89 daily sessions.
Important
This suite does not generate buy/sell signals. It provides structure and confluence; decisions remain yours.
Use Cases
Identify fair-value zones / mean-reversion areas.
Plan TP / SL around periodic VWAPs.
Define DCA levels (e.g., anchored to prior week/month).
Gauge trend bias via VWAP slope and reactions.
How to Use
Inputs → VWAP 1..5: Choose the period per slot (Session, Anchored, Rolling, etc.) and toggle Show .
Sources: Select the price source for all VWAPs (default: HLC3).
Global: Line offset (bars) shifts plots visually (does not affect calculations).
Style tab: Adjust per-line colors, thickness, and line style.
Alerts
Price crosses a VWAP (per slot).
VWAP slope turns UP or DOWN (per slot).
Tips & Notes
Volume required: Poor/absent volume (e.g., some FX tickers) can degrade accuracy.
Anchored modes: Start at the prior period’s open; values appear only after that timestamp.
Rolling modes: Use completed daily sessions (including today).
Clutter control: If labels crowd, increase Line offset or hide unneeded slots.
Confluence: Combine with market structure, liquidity zones, or momentum filters for stronger context.

Dynamic Threshold Money Flow Indexi thought this script was a clever idea, but the more i tried to improve it, the worse it seemed to get.
the idea behind this script was to build a context around a Money Flow Index that changes based on market conditions.
the width of the channel is controlled by a combination of the choppiness index and an inverted, normalized, absolute value of the ROC. when the market begins trending, the channel narrows, making the MFI more likely to break out of the channel in the direction of the emerging trend. as the market becomes more choppy and the trend diminishes, the channel widens, recapturing the MFI.
my initial hopes for this script was that the context-based thresholds would spare the user from choppy markets, but perhaps i need to make the channel non-linear.
Volume Spike Detector - by TenAMTrader📌 Volume Spike Detector – by TenAMTrader
This indicator is designed to help traders quickly identify unusual surges in trading volume relative to recent activity. High-volume spikes can often signal strong buying or selling pressure, potential trend reversals, or breakout setups.
⚙️ How It Works
The script calculates the average trading volume over a user-defined period (default: 21 bars).
It then sets a spike threshold, which is that average volume plus a percentage buffer (default: 25%).
Whenever the current bar’s volume exceeds this threshold, a 💰 label is plotted below the candle.
If alerts are enabled, you’ll also receive a real-time alert whenever a spike occurs.
🔧 User Settings
Spike Ratio % → Adjust how much higher than average volume must be to qualify as a spike.
Trading Period → Set the lookback period used to calculate the average volume.
Enable Alert → Turn alerts on/off.
📊 Practical Use Cases
Breakout Trading: Volume spikes often confirm breakouts from consolidation zones.
Reversal Signals: A sudden surge in volume may precede a trend reversal.
News & Events: Spot unusual activity during earnings, economic releases, or unexpected events.

Volume Profile Grid [Alpha Extract]A sophisticated volume distribution analysis system that transforms market activity into institutional-grade visual profiles, revealing hidden support/resistance zones and market participant behavior. Utilizing advanced price level segmentation, bullish/bearish volume separation, and dynamic range analysis, the Volume Profile Grid delivers comprehensive market structure insights with Point of Control (POC) identification, Value Area boundaries, and volume delta analysis. The system features intelligent visualization modes, real-time sentiment analysis, and flexible range selection to provide traders with clear, actionable volume-based market context.
🔶 Dynamic Range Analysis Engine
Implements dual-mode range selection with visible chart analysis and fixed period lookback, automatically adjusting to current market view or analyzing specified historical periods. The system intelligently calculates optimal bar counts while maintaining performance through configurable maximum limits, ensuring responsive profile generation across all timeframes with institutional-grade precision.
// Dynamic period calculation with intelligent caching
get_analysis_period() =>
if i_use_visible_range
chart_start_time = chart.left_visible_bar_time
current_time = last_bar_time
time_span = current_time - chart_start_time
tf_seconds = timeframe.in_seconds()
estimated_bars = time_span / (tf_seconds * 1000)
range_bars = math.floor(estimated_bars)
final_bars = math.min(range_bars, i_max_visible_bars)
math.max(final_bars, 50) // Minimum threshold
else
math.max(i_periods, 50)
🔶 Advanced Bull/Bear Volume Separation
Employs sophisticated candle classification algorithms to separate bullish and bearish volume at each price level, with weighted distribution based on bar intersection ratios. The system analyzes open/close relationships to determine volume direction, applying proportional allocation for doji patterns and ensuring accurate representation of buying versus selling pressure across the entire price spectrum.
🔶 Multi-Mode Volume Visualization
Features three distinct display modes for bull/bear volume representation: Split mode creates mirrored profiles from a central axis, Side by Side mode displays sequential bull/bear segments, and Stacked mode separates volumes vertically. Each mode offers unique insights into market participant behavior with customizable width, thickness, and color parameters for optimal visual clarity.
// Bull/Bear volume calculation with weighted distribution
for bar_offset = 0 to actual_periods - 1
bar_high = high
bar_low = low
bar_volume = volume
// Calculate intersection weight
weight = math.min(bar_high, next_level) - math.max(bar_low, current_level)
weight := weight / (bar_high - bar_low)
weighted_volume = bar_volume * weight
// Classify volume direction
if bar_close > bar_open
level_bull_volume += weighted_volume
else if bar_close < bar_open
level_bear_volume += weighted_volume
else // Doji handling
level_bull_volume += weighted_volume * 0.5
level_bear_volume += weighted_volume * 0.5
🔶 Point of Control & Value Area Detection
Implements institutional-standard POC identification by locating the price level with maximum volume accumulation, providing critical support/resistance zones. The Value Area calculation uses sophisticated sorting algorithms to identify the price range containing 70% of trading volume, revealing the market's accepted value zone where institutional participants concentrate their activity.
🔶 Volume Delta Analysis System
Incorporates real-time volume delta calculation with configurable dominance thresholds to identify significant bull/bear imbalances. The system visually highlights price levels where buying or selling pressure exceeds threshold percentages, providing immediate insight into directional volume flow and potential reversal zones through color-coded delta indicators.
// Value Area calculation using 70% volume accumulation
total_volume_sum = array.sum(total_volumes)
target_volume = total_volume_sum * 0.70
// Sort volumes to find highest activity zones
for i = 0 to array.size(sorted_volumes) - 2
for j = i + 1 to array.size(sorted_volumes) - 1
if array.get(sorted_volumes, j) > array.get(sorted_volumes, i)
// Swap and track indices for value area boundaries
// Accumulate until 70% threshold reached
for i = 0 to array.size(sorted_indices) - 1
accumulated_volume += vol
array.push(va_levels, array.get(volume_levels, idx))
if accumulated_volume >= target_volume
break
❓How It Works
🔶 Weighted Volume Distribution
Implements proportional volume allocation based on the percentage of each bar that intersects with price levels. When a bar spans multiple levels, volume is distributed proportionally based on the intersection ratio, ensuring precise representation of trading activity across the entire price spectrum without double-counting or volume loss.
🔶 Real-Time Profile Generation
Profiles regenerate on each bar close when in visible range mode, automatically adapting to chart zoom and scroll actions. The system maintains optimal performance through intelligent caching mechanisms and selective line updates, ensuring smooth operation even with maximum resolution settings and extended analysis periods.
🔶 Market Sentiment Analysis
Features comprehensive volume analysis table displaying total volume metrics, bullish/bearish percentages, and overall market sentiment classification. The system calculates volume dominance ratios in real-time, providing immediate insight into whether buyers or sellers control the current price structure with percentage-based sentiment thresholds.
🔶 Visual Profile Mapping
Provides multi-layered visual feedback through colored volume bars, POC line highlighting, Value Area boundaries, and optional delta indicators. The system supports profile mirroring for alternative perspectives, line extension for future reference, and customizable label positioning with detailed price information at critical levels.
Why Choose Volume Profile Grid
The Volume Profile Grid represents the evolution of volume analysis tools, combining traditional volume profile concepts with modern visualization techniques and intelligent analysis algorithms. By integrating dynamic range selection, sophisticated bull/bear separation, and multi-mode visualization with POC/Value Area detection, it provides traders with institutional-quality market structure analysis that adapts to any trading style. The comprehensive delta analysis and sentiment monitoring system eliminates guesswork while the flexible visualization options ensure optimal clarity across all market conditions, making it an essential tool for traders seeking to understand true market dynamics through volume-based price discovery.

Fibo Swing MFI by julzALGOOVERVIEW
Fibo Swing MFI by julzALGO blends MFI → RSI → Least-Squares smoothing to flag overbought/oversold swings and continuously plot Fibonacci retracements from the rolling high/low of the last 200 bars. It’s built to spot momentum shifts while giving you a clean, always-current fib map of the recent market range.
CORE PRINCIPLES
Hybrid Momentum Signal
- Uses MFI to integrate price and volume.
- Applies RSI to MFI for momentum clarity.
- Smooths the result with Least Squares regression to reduce noise.
Swing Identification
- Marks potential swing highs when momentum is overbought.
- Marks potential swing lows when momentum is oversold.
Fixed-Window Fibonacci Mapping
- Always calculates fib levels from the highest high and lowest low of the last 200 bars.
- This keeps fib zones consistent, independent of swing point detection.
Visual Clarity & Non-Repainting Logic
- Clean labels for OB/OS zones.
- Lines and levels update only as new bars confirm changes.
Adaptability
- Works on any market and timeframe.
- Adjustable momentum length, OB/OS thresholds, and smoothing.
HOW IT WORKS
- Computes Money Flow Index (MFI) from price & volume.
- Applies RSI to the MFI for clearer OB/OS momentum.
- Smooths the hybrid with a Least Squares (linear regression) filter.
- Swing labels appear when OB/OS conditions are met (green = swing low, red = swing high).
- Fibonacci retracements are always drawn from the highest high and lowest low of the last 200 bars (rolling window), independent of swing labels.
HOW TO USE
- Watch for OB/OS flips to mark potential swing highs/lows.
- Use the 200-bar fib grid as your active map of pullback levels and reaction zones.
- Combine fib reactions with your price action/volume cues for confirmation.
- Works across markets and timeframes.
SETTINGS
- Length – Period for both MFI and RSI.
- OB/OS Levels – Overbought/oversold thresholds (default 70/30).
- Smooth – Least-Squares smoothing length.
- Fibonacci Window – Fixed at 200 bars in this version (changeable in code via fibLen).
NOTES
- Logic is non-repainting aside from standard bar/label confirmation.
- Increase Length on very low timeframes to reduce noise.
- Swing labels help context; fibs are always based on the most recent 200-bar high/low range.
SUMMARY
Fibo Swing MFI by julzALGO is a momentum-plus-price action tool that merges MFI → RSI → smoothing to identify overbought/oversold swings and automatically plot Fibonacci retracements based on the rolling high/low of the last 200 bars. It’s designed to help traders quickly see potential reversal points and pullback zones, offering visual confluence between momentum shifts and fixed-window price structure.

Volume Spike DetectorDetects a spike in Volume . based on volume on tradingviews. It highlights when volume is 1.5X of usual average
Nifty Power -> Nifty 50 chart + EMA of RSI + avg volume strategyThis strategy works in 1 hour candle in Nifty 50 chart. In this strategy, upward trade takes place when there is a crossover of RSI 15 on EMA50 of RSI 15 and volume is greater than volume based EMA21. On the other hand, lower trade takes place when RSI 15 is less than EMA50 of RSI 15. Please note that there is no stop loss given and also that the trade will reverse as per the trend. Sometimes on somedays, there will be no trades. Also please note that this is an Intraday strategy. The trade if taken closes on 15:15 in Nifty 50. This strategy can be used for swing trading. Some pine script code such as supertrend and ema21 of close is redundant. Try not to get confused as only EMA50 of RSI 15 is used and EMA21 of volume is used. I am using built-in pinescript indicators and there is no special calculation done in the pine script code. I have taken numbars variable to count number of candles. For example, if you have 30 minuite chart then numbars variable will count the intraday candles accordingly and the same for 1 hour candles.
High Tick Volume Alert (Classic Style)This indicator has the classic appearance of the volume indicator for tick volume. It notifies you according to your individual settings when there is increased volume on price.
Previous High/Low Range (D,W,M)Previous High/Low Range (D,W,M)
This indicator displays the previous period’s High, Low, and 50% Midpoint levels for the Day, Week, and Month. It visually extends these levels into the future for easy reference, helping traders identify key support and resistance zones. Users can customize the visibility, colors, and line styles for each timeframe, and optionally show labels and a dashed midpoint line for clearer analysis. Ideal for trend analysis and spotting potential reversal points.
Dual Volume Profiles: Session + Rolling (Range Delineation)Dual Volume Profiles: Session + Rolling (Range Delineation)
INTRO
This is a probability-centric take on volume profile. I treat the volume histogram as an empirical PDF over price, updated in real time, which makes multi-modality (multiple acceptance basins) explicit rather than assumed away. The immediate benefit is operational: if we can read the shape of the distribution, we can infer likely reversion levels (POC), acceptance boundaries (VAH/VAL), and low-friction corridors (LVNs).
My working hypothesis is that what traders often label “fat tails” or “power-law behavior” at short horizons is frequently a tail-conditioned view of a higher-level Gaussian regime. In other words, child distributions (shorter periodicities) sit within parent distributions (longer periodicities); when price operates in the parent’s tail, the child regime looks heavy-tailed without being fundamentally non-Gaussian. This is consistent with a hierarchical/mixture view and with the spirit of the central limit theorem—Gaussian structure emerges at aggregate scales, while local scales can look non-Gaussian due to nesting and conditioning.
This indicator operationalizes that view by plotting two nested empirical PDFs: a rolling (local) profile and a session-anchored profile. Their confluence makes ranges explicit and turns “regime” into something you can see. For additional nesting, run multiple instances with different lookbacks. When using the default settings combined with a separate daily VP, you effectively get three nested distributions (local → session → daily) on the chart.
This indicator plots two nested distributions side-by-side:
Rolling (Local) Profile — short-window, prorated histogram that “breathes” with price and maps the immediate auction.
Session Anchored Profile — cumulative distribution since the current session start (Premkt → RTH → AH anchoring), revealing the parent regime.
Use their confluence to identify range floors/ceilings, mean-reversion magnets, and low-volume “air pockets” for fast traverses.
What it shows
POC (dashed): central tendency / “magnet” (highest-volume bin).
VAH & VAL (solid): acceptance boundaries enclosing an exact Value Area % around each profile’s POC.
Volume histograms:
Rolling can auto-color by buy/sell dominance over the lookback (green = buying ≥ selling, red = selling > buying).
Session uses a fixed style (blue by default).
Session anchoring (exchange timezone):
Premarket → anchors at 00:00 (midnight).
RTH → anchors at 09:30.
After-hours → anchors at 16:00.
Session display span:
Session Max Span (bars) = 0 → draw from session start → now (anchored).
> 0 → draw a rolling window N bars back → now, while still measuring all volume since session start.
Why it’s useful
Think in terms of nested probability distributions: the rolling node is your local Gaussian; the session node is its parent.
VA↔VA overlap ≈ strong range boundary.
POC↔POC alignment ≈ reliable mean-reversion target.
LVNs (gaps) ≈ low-friction corridors—expect quick moves to the next node.
Quick start
Add to chart (great on 5–10s, 15–60s, 1–5m).
Start with: bins = 240, vaPct = 0.68, barsBack = 60.
Watch for:
First test & rejection at overlapping VALs/VAHs → fade back toward POC.
Acceptance beyond VA (several closes + growing outer-bin mass) → traverse to the next node.
Inputs (detailed)
General
Lookback Bars (Rolling)
Count of most-recent bars for the rolling/local histogram. Larger = smoother node that shifts slower; smaller = more reactive, “breathing” profile.
• Typical: 40–80 on 5–10s charts; 60–120 on 1–5m.
• If you increase this but keep Number of Bins fixed, each bin aggregates more volume (coarser bins).
Number of Bins
Vertical resolution (price buckets) for both rolling and session histograms. Higher = finer detail and crisper LVNs, but more line objects (closer to platform limits).
• Typical: 120–240 on 5–10s; 80–160 on 1–5m.
• If you hit performance or object limits, reduce this first.
Value Area %
Exact central coverage for VAH/VAL around POC. Computed empirically from the histogram (no Gaussian assumption): the algorithm expands from POC outward until the chosen % is enclosed.
• Common: 0.68 (≈“1σ-like”), 0.70 for slightly wider core.
• Smaller = tighter VA (more breakout flags). Larger = wider VA (more reversion bias).
Max Local Profile Width (px)
Horizontal length (in pixels) of the rolling bars/lines and its VA/POC overlays. Visual only (does not affect calculations).
Session Settings
RTH Start/End (exchange tz)
Defines the current session anchor (Premkt=00:00, RTH=your start, AH=your end). The session histogram always measures from the most recent session start and resets at each boundary.
Session Max Span (bars, 0 = full session)
Display window for session drawings (POC/VA/Histogram).
• 0 → draw from session start → now (anchored).
• > 0 → draw N bars back → now (rolling look), while still measuring all volume since session start.
This keeps the “parent” distribution measurable while letting the display track current action.
Local (Rolling) — Visibility
Show Local Profile Bars / POC / VAH & VAL
Toggle each overlay independently. If you approach object limits, disable bars first (POC/VA lines are lighter).
Local (Rolling) — Colors & Widths
Color by Buy/Sell Dominance
Fast uptick/downtick proxy over the rolling window (close vs open):
• Buying ≥ Selling → Bullish Color (default lime).
• Selling > Buying → Bearish Color (default red).
This color drives local bars, local POC, and local VA lines.
• Disable to use fixed Bars Color / POC Color / VA Lines Color.
Bars Transparency (0–100) — alpha for the local histogram (higher = lighter).
Bars Line Width (thickness) — draw thin-line profiles or chunky blocks.
POC Line Width / VA Lines Width — overlay thickness. POC is dashed, VAH/VAL solid by design.
Session — Visibility
Show Session Profile Bars / POC / VAH & VAL
Independent toggles for the session layer.
Session — Colors & Widths
Bars/POC/VA Colors & Line Widths
Fixed palette by design (default blue). These do not change with buy/sell dominance.
• Use transparency and width to make the parent profile prominent or subtle.
• Prefer minimal? Hide session bars; keep only session VA/POC.
Reading the signals (detailed playbook)
Core definitions
POC — highest-volume bin (fair price “magnet”).
VAH/VAL — upper/lower bounds enclosing your Value Area % around POC.
Node — contiguous block of high-volume bins (acceptance).
LVN — low-volume gap between nodes (low friction path).
Rejection vs Acceptance (practical rule)
Rejection at VA edge: 0–1 closes beyond VA and no persistent growth in outer bins.
Acceptance beyond VA: ≥3 closes beyond VA and outer-bin mass grows (e.g., added volume beyond the VA edge ≥ 5–10% of node volume over the last N bars). Treat acceptance as regime change.
Confluence scores (make boundary/target quality objective)
VA overlap strength (range boundary):
C_VA = 1 − |VA_edge_local − VA_edge_session| / ATR(n)
Values near 1.0 = tight overlap (stronger boundary).
Use: if C_VA ≥ 0.6–0.8, treat as high-quality fade zone.
POC alignment (magnet quality):
C_POC = 1 − |POC_local − POC_session| / ATR(n)
Higher C_POC = greater chance a rotation completes to that fair price.
(You can estimate these by eye.)
Setups
1) Range Fade at VA Confluence (mean reversion)
Context: Local VAL/VAH near Session VAL/VAH (tight overlap), clear node, local color not screaming trend (or flips to your side).
Entry: First test & rejection at the overlapped band (wick through ok; prefer close back inside).
Stop: A tick/pip beyond the wider of the two VA edges or beyond the nearest LVN, a small buffer zone can be used to judge whether price is truly rejecting a VAL/VAH or simply probing.
Targets: T1 node mid; T2 POC (size up when C_POC is high).
Flip: If acceptance (rule above) prints, flip bias or stand down.
2) LVN Traverse (continuation)
Context: Price exits VA and enters an LVN with acceptance and growing outer-bin volume.
Entry: Aggressive—first close into LVN; Conservative—retest of the VA edge from the far side (“kiss goodbye”).
Stop: Back inside the prior VA.
Targets: Next node’s VA edge or POC (edge = faster exits; POC = fuller rotations).
Note: Flatter VA edge (shallower curvature) tends to breach more easily.
3) POC→POC Magnet Trade (rotation completion)
Context: Local POC ≈ Session POC (high C_POC).
Entry: Fade a VA touch or pullback inside node, aiming toward the shared POC.
Stop: Past the opposite VA edge or LVN beyond.
Target: The shared POC; optional runner to opposite VA if the node is broad and time-of-day is supportive.
4) Failed Break (Reversion Snap-back)
Context: Push beyond VA fails acceptance (re-enters VA, outer-bin growth stalls/shrinks).
Entry: On the re-entry close, back toward POC.
Stop/Target: Stop just beyond the failed VA; target POC, then opposite VA if momentum persists.
How to read color & shape
Local color = most recent sentiment:
Green = buying ≥ selling; Red = selling > buying (over the rolling window). Treat as context, not a standalone signal. A green local node under a blue session VAH can still be a fade if the parent says “over-valued.”
Shape tells friction:
Fat nodes → rotation-friendly (fade edges).
Sharp LVN gaps → traversal-friendly (momentum continuation).
Time-of-day intuition
Right after session anchor (e.g., RTH 09:30): Session profile is young and moves quickly—treat confluence cautiously.
Mid-session: Cleanest behavior for rotations.
Close / news: Expect more traverses and POC migrations; tighten risk or switch playbooks.
Risk & execution guidance
Use tight, mechanical stops at/just beyond VA or LVN. If you need wide stops to survive noise, your entry is late or the node is unstable.
On micro-timeframes, account for fees & slippage—aim for targets paying ≥2–3× average cost.
If acceptance prints, don’t fight it—flip, reduce size, or stand aside.
Suggested presets
Scalp (5–10s): bins 120–240, barsBack 40–80, vaPct 0.68–0.70, local bars thin (small bar width).
Intraday (1–5m): bins 80–160, barsBack 60–120, vaPct 0.68–0.75, session bars more visible for parent context.
Performance & limits
Reuses line objects to stay under TradingView’s max_lines_count.
Very large bins × multiple overlays can still hit limits—use visibility toggles (hide bars first).
Session drawings use time-based coordinates to avoid “bar index too far” errors.
Known nuances
Rolling buy/sell dominance uses a simple uptick/downtick proxy (close vs open). It’s fast and practical, but it’s not a full tape classifier.
VA boundaries are computed from the empirical histogram—no Gaussian assumption.
This script does not calculate the full daily volume profile. Several other tools already provide that, including TradingView’s built-in Volume Profile indicators. Instead, this indicator focuses on pairing a rolling, short-term volume distribution with a session-wide distribution to make ranges more explicit. It is designed to supplement your use of standard or periodic volume profiles, not replace them. Think of it as a magnifying lens that helps you see where local structure aligns with the broader session.
How to trade it (TL;DR)
Fade overlapping VA bands on first rejection → target POC.
Continue through LVN on acceptance beyond VA → target next node’s VA/POC.
Respect acceptance: ≥3 closes beyond VA + growing outer-bin volume = regime change.
FAQ
Q: Why 68% Value Area?
A: It mirrors the “~1σ” idea, but we compute it exactly from empirical volume, not by assuming a normal distribution.
Q: Why are my profiles thin lines?
A: Increase Bars Line Width for chunkier blocks; reduce for fine, thin-line profiles.
Q: Session bars don’t reach session start—why?
A: Set Session Max Span (bars) = 0 for full anchoring; any positive value draws a rolling window while still measuring from session start.

BlackDelta : Consolidation DetectorVisuals :
Purple background → whole chart section is in consolidation.
Small orange circle under the bar → that specific bar is meeting all conditions. (Consolidation)
So visually:
Purple shaded region = "market is coiling here"
You can track price action in that shaded zone, then look for a breakout beyond the range for trades.
This tool basically filters out fake quiet periods and only highlights the real compression zones that often lead to a breakout.

Rolling VWAP with Bands (Locked Timeframe)Rolling VWAP with Customizable Bands — Locked Timeframe
This indicator plots a rolling Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) over a fixed, user-selected timeframe — so it stays consistent no matter what chart timeframe you’re viewing. Unlike the standard anchored VWAP, this one works like a moving average weighted by volume, providing a smoother, more adaptive central price line that doesn’t reset each session.
It also includes up to three optional deviation bands, each with its own toggle and multiplier setting. The bands are based on standard deviation, helping you quickly identify when price is stretched above or below its mean.
Features:
Locked-timeframe VWAP — calculation stays fixed to your chosen resolution (e.g., 1H, 4H, Daily)
Adjustable lookback length for VWAP calculation
Up to 3 standard deviation bands, each with:
On/Off toggle
Independent multiplier control
Works on any chart timeframe without changing shape
Optional filled shading between bands for clarity
Uses:
Spot overbought/oversold conditions relative to VWAP
Identify dynamic support & resistance
Confirm trend strength or mean reversion setups
Keep a consistent reference line across multiple chart timeframes
Jose's Rolling VWAP with BandsRolling VWAP with Customizable Deviation Bands
This indicator plots a rolling Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) over a user-defined lookback period, rather than resetting each day or from a fixed anchor point. The rolling calculation makes it act more like a moving average — but weighted by volume — providing a smoother, more adaptive central price line.
It also includes up to three optional deviation bands, which can be independently toggled on/off and assigned their own multipliers. These bands are calculated using the chosen lookback’s standard deviation, giving traders a quick visual of price dispersion around VWAP.
Features:
Adjustable rolling VWAP lookback length
Up to 3 customizable standard deviation bands
Individual checkboxes for enabling/disabling each band
Independent multiplier control for each band
Works on any timeframe and symbol
Uses:
Identify overextended price moves relative to VWAP
Spot dynamic support/resistance zones
Gauge mean reversion opportunities
Confirm trend strength when price hugs or breaks away from VWAP
