Advanced Volume Suite (24h, Pulse, Spikes, Breakout Pressure)Advanced Volume Suite transforms raw volume into a complete market-intelligence toolkit for breakout, momentum, and liquidity-driven trading.
Unlike the basic volume indicator, this tool analyzes volume in true USDT value, tracks rolling 24h exchange-style volume, measures volume strength vs historical averages, detects smart spikes, and highlights breakout pressure near support/resistance.
Core Features:
• USDT-based volume histogram
• 24h rolling volume line
• Volume Pulse (volume vs moving average)
• Smart spike detection with directional filters
• Breakout pressure system (breakouts + near-breakout conditions)
• 3 advanced volume color modes (Simple / Body / Delta-style)
• All signals and thresholds fully configurable
Perfect for traders who rely on volume confirmation for breakouts, momentum entries, scalping, or detecting institutional activity.
XAU Micro ScalperThis indicator is designed for short-term price rotation detection on XAUUSD, especially on the 1-minute timeframe.
It combines three momentum components—Stochastic, RSI, and OBV slope—to highlight potential reversal points and short-term scalping opportunities.
Core Logic
The script generates a signal only when multiple conditions align:
1. Stochastic Reversal (Timing Component)
A basic long/short trigger occurs when the Stochastic oscillator exits oversold (long) or overbought (short).
This represents a potential shift in short-term momentum.
2. RSI “Smart Rotation” Filter (Context Component)
Instead of using fixed oversold/overbought thresholds, the indicator checks whether RSI is turning:
Long: RSI is below a contextual ceiling (default 50) and rising
Short: RSI is above a contextual floor (default 55) and falling
This avoids premature entries during strong trending phases and confirms that momentum is actually rotating.
3. OBV Slope Filter (Volume Confirmation)
The On-Balance Volume trend is compared to its previous value:
Long: OBV slope improving
Short: OBV slope deteriorating
This helps confirm whether volume pressure is shifting in favor of the trade direction.
Both RSI and OBV filters can be enabled or disabled independently via the indicator settings.
Signals
Small circles mark raw Stochastic reversal points (unfiltered).
Green / red triangles represent validated long/short signals where all active filters agree.
Optional candle coloring highlights confirmed entry signals on the chart.
Use Cases
Intraday and scalping strategies on XAUUSD
Identifying short-term momentum reversals
Filtering noisy signals during high-volatility sessions
Studying how volume and momentum align around turning points
Customization
Users can adjust:
RSI contextual thresholds
Lookback periods
OBV slope sensitivity
Stochastic parameters
Activation of RSI and OBV filters
This flexibility allows the indicator to adapt to different market conditions and timeframes.

BT SpikeBT Spike is a lightweight but highly effective alert engine designed to identify
moments of unusual volatility and volume expansion . These spikes often appear
at the very beginning of major moves, giving traders early insight into:
Momentum ignition
Breakout confirmation
Liquidity shifts
Stop runs & displacement moves
Trend acceleration
High-impact expansions before news or volatility events
Rather than watching charts all day, BT Spike allows traders to receive
instant alerts whenever the market enters an abnormal volatility regime.
---
■ What BT Spike Measures
1. ATR Spike
Detects sudden expansion in true range (micro-volatility).
This often marks the beginning of a displacement candle.
2. Volume Spike
Identifies candles where volume exceeds typical market participation.
3. Combined Spike
A powerful signal triggered only when both conditions occur together:
ATR Spike AND Volume Spike
4. Spike Score (0–100)
A normalized measure of spike intensity.
• Higher score → Stronger anomaly
• 90+ → Extreme event (liquidity shifts, stop runs, institutional activity)
---
■ Visual Elements
• True Range Line
Shows per-candle volatility relative to baseline ATR.
• Volume Bars (Color-Scaled)
Volume bars turn:
Green for bullish spikes
Red for bearish spikes
Intensity based on Spike Score
Gray during normal activity
This creates a clear volatility heatmap directly in the volume panel.
• Spike Score Histogram
Helps visually identify:
Minor spikes
Major volatility clusters
Extreme anomalies
• Threshold Lines
Yellow = Minor
Orange = Major
Red = Extreme
---
■ Why BT Spike Is Useful
Spike-based analysis helps traders:
Catch large moves early
Confirm breakouts and avoid fake ones
Identify when smart money enters the market
Find the start of momentum legs
Monitor many charts with alerts instead of manual watching
A spike is often the first footprint of a meaningful move.
---
■ Practical Trading Uses
1. Breakout Confirmation
A breakout with no spike is often weak.
A breakout with a spike is typically genuine and sustained.
2. Reversal Detection
Extreme spike after a sweep often signals a reversal event.
3. Trend Ignition
Spikes frequently occur at the beginning of:
Trend legs
News-driven surges
Momentum continuation moves
4. Divergence With Price
High-volume, high-ATR spikes with little price movement can indicate:
Absorption
Trap conditions
Exhaustion
5. Alert-Driven Market Monitoring
Set alerts for:
ATR Spike
Volume Spike
Combined Spike
Major Spike (Score ≥ threshold)
Extreme Spike (Score ≥ threshold)
This allows traders to walk away while still catching every volatility event.
---
■ Spike Score Guide
0–30 → Mild noise
30–60 → Minor shift
60–80 → Strong volatility expansion
80–95 → Major spike (high-impact)
95–100 → Extreme event (institutional presence, sweeps, stop runs)
---
■ Final Summary
BT Spike gives traders:
Early detection of volatility expansion
Bull/Bear intensity visualization
Powerful alert automation
A universal signal layer that fits any strategy
Cleaner insight into where major moves originate
BT Spike = Your volatility radar .
It tells you when to look at a chart—before the move happens.
VAPO OsilatorThe Real Map of Buying and Selling Pressure.
VAPO Advanced is fundamentally different from conventional oscillators that only measure momentum based on price. By integrating Volume and price movement (Pressure), it quantitatively maps the true buying and selling pressure in the market.
How It Works and What Are Its Advantages?
1. Core Pressure Measurement
Logic: The oscillator interprets high-volume price increases as strong buying pressure (+P) and high-volume price decreases as strong selling pressure (-P). Low-volume moves weaken the signal strength.
Benefit: This effectively filters out misleading signals caused by "fake" price movements (manipulation or low-volume spikes). It only displays momentum shifts that are supported by volume.
2. Dynamic Signal Line and Histogram
Signal Line: Provides a dynamic signal line smoothed by your choice of Moving Average type (EMA, SMA, WMA).
Histogram: Shows the difference between the VAPO line and the Signal line. A zero-line crossover of the histogram is the clearest signal that pressure is shifting direction. As the Green histogram grows, Buying Pressure accelerates; as the Red histogram grows, Selling Pressure accelerates.
3. Reliable Confirmation Tool
VAPO serves as an excellent confirmation tool when used alongside your primary trend indicators. For instance, when a trend indicator gives a BUY signal, VAPO crossing above the zero line (positive pressure) significantly increases the reliability of that signal.

VWAP-Anchored MACD [BOSWaves]VWAP-Anchored MACD - Volume-Weighted Momentum Mapping With Zero-Line Filtering
Overview
The VWAP-Anchored MACD delivers a refined momentum model built on volume-weighted price rather than raw closes, giving you a more grounded view of trend strength during sessions, weeks, or months.
Instead of tracking two EMAs of price like a standard MACD, this tool reconstructs the MACD engine using anchored VWAP as the core input. The result is a momentum structure that reacts to real liquidity flow, filters out weak crossovers near the zero line, and visualizes acceleration shifts with clear, high-contrast gradients.
This indicator acts as a precise momentum map that adapts in real time. You see how weighted price is accelerating, where valid crossovers form, and when trend conviction is strong enough to justify execution.
It uses gradient line coloring to show bullish or bearish momentum, histogram shading to highlight energy shifts, cross dots to mark valid crossovers, optional buy/sell diamonds for execution cues, and candle coloring to display trend strength at a glance.
Theoretical Foundation
Traditional MACD compares the difference between two exponential moving averages of price.
This variant replaces price with anchored VWAP, making the calculation sensitive to actual traded volume across your chosen period (Session, Week, or Month).
Three principles drive the logic:
Anchored VWAP Momentum : Price is weighted by volume and aggregated across the selected anchor. The fast and slow VWAP-EMAs then expose how liquidity-corrected momentum is expanding or contracting.
Zero-Line Distance Filtering : Crossover signals that occur too close to the zero line are removed. This eliminates the common MACD problem of generating weak, directionless signals in choppy phases.
Directional Visualization : MACD line, signal line, histogram, candle colors, and optional diamond markers all react to shifts in VWAP-momentum, giving you a clean structural read on market pressure.
Anchoring VWAP to session, weekly, or monthly resets creates a systematic framework for tracking how capital flow is driving momentum throughout each trading cycle.
How It Works
The core engine processes momentum through several mapped layers:
VWAP Aggregation : Price × volume is accumulated until the anchor resets. This creates a continuous, liquidity-corrected VWAP curve.
MACD Construction : Fast and slow VWAP-EMAs define the MACD line, while a smoothed signal line identifies edges where momentum shifts.
Zero-Line Distance Filter : MACD and signal must both exceed a threshold distance from zero for a crossover to count as valid. This prevents fake crossovers during compression.
Visual Momentum Layers : It uses gradient line coloring to show bullish or bearish momentum, histogram shading to highlight energy shifts, cross dots to mark valid crossovers, optional buy/sell diamonds for execution cues, and candle coloring to display trend strength at a glance.
This layered structure ensures you always know whether momentum is strengthening, fading, or transitioning.
Interpretation
You get a clean, structural understanding of VWAP-based momentum:
Bullish Phases : MACD > Signal, histogram expands, candles turn bullish, and crossovers occur above the threshold.
Bearish Phases : MACD < Signal, histogram drives lower, candles shift bearish, and downward crossovers trigger below the threshold.
Neutral/Compression : Both lines remain near the zero boundary, histogram flattens, and signals are suppressed to avoid noise.
This creates a more disciplined version of MACD momentum reading - less noise, more conviction, and better alignment with liquidity.
Strategy Integration
Trend Continuation : Use VWAP-MACD crossovers that occur far from the zero line as higher-conviction entries.
Zero-Line Rejection : Watch for histogram contractions near zero to anticipate flattening momentum and potential reversal setups.
Session/Week/Month Anchors : Session anchor works best for intraday flows. Weekly or monthly anchor structures create cleaner macro momentum reads for swing trading.
Signal-Only Execution : Optional buy/sell diamonds give you direct points to trigger trades without overanalyzing the chart.
This indicator slots cleanly into any momentum-following system and offers higher signal quality than classic MACD variants due to the volume-weighted core.
Technical Implementation Details
VWAP Reset Logic : Session (D), Week (W), or Month (M)
Dynamic Fast/Slow VWAP EMAs : Fully configurable lengths, smoothing and anchor settings
MACD/Signal Line Framework : Traditional structure with volume-anchored input
Zero-Line Filtering : Adjustable threshold for structural confirmation
Dual Visualization Layers : MACD body + histogram + crosses + candle coloring
Optimized Performance : Lightweight, fast rendering across all timeframes
Optimal Application Parameters
Timeframes:
1- 15 min : Short-term momentum scalping and rapid trend shifts
30- 240 min : Balanced momentum mapping with clear structural filtering
Daily : Macro VWAP regime identification
Suggested Configuration:
Fast Length : 12
Slow Length : 26
Signal Length : 9
Zero Threshold : 200 - 500 depending on asset range
These suggested parameters should be used as a baseline; their effectiveness depends on the asset volatility, liquidity, and preferred entry frequency, so fine-tuning is expected for optimal performance.
Performance Characteristics
High Effectiveness:
Assets with strong intraday or session-based volume cycles
Markets where volume-weighted momentum leads price swings
Trend environments with strong acceleration
Reduced Effectiveness:
Ultra-choppy markets hugging the VWAP axis
Sessions with abnormally low volume
Ranges where MACD naturally compresses
Disclaimer
The VWAP-Anchored MACD is a structural momentum tool designed to enhance directional clarity - not a guaranteed predictor. Performance depends on market regime, volatility, and disciplined execution. Use it alongside broader trend, volume, and structural analysis for optimal results.

Kinetic EMA & Volume with State EngineKinetic EMA & Volume with State Engine (EMVOL)
1. Introduction & Concept
The EMVOL indicator converts a dense family of EMA signals and volume flows into a compact “state engine”. Instead of looking at individual EMA lines or simple crossovers, the script treats each EMA as part of a kinetic vector field and classifies the market into interpretable states:
- Trend direction and strength (from a grid of prime‑period EMAs).
- Volume regime (expansion, contraction, climax, dry‑up).
- Order‑flow bias via delta (buy versus sell volume).
- A combined scenario label that summarises how these three layers interact.
The goal is educational: to help traders see that moving averages and volume become more meaningful when observed as a structure, not as isolated lines. EMVOL is therefore designed as a real‑time teaching tool, not as an automatic signal generator.
2. Volume Settings
Group: “Volume Settings”
A. Calculation Method
- Geometry (Source File) – Default mode.
Buy and sell volume are estimated from each candle’s geometry: the close is compared to the high/low range and the bar’s total volume is split proportionally between buyers and sellers. This approximation works on any TradingView plan and does not require lower‑timeframe data.
- Intrabar (Precise) – Reconstructs buy/sell volume using a lower timeframe via requestUpAndDownVolume(). The script asks TradingView for historical intrabar data (e.g., 15‑second bars) and builds buy/sell volume and delta from that stream. This mode can produce a more accurate view of order flow, but coverage is limited by your account’s history limits and the symbol’s available lower‑timeframe data.
B. Intrabar Resolution (If Precise)
- Intrabar Resolution (If Precise) – Selected only when the calculation method is “Intrabar (Precise)”. It defines which lower timeframe (for example 15S, 30S, 1m) is used to compute up/down volume. Smaller intrabar timeframes may give smoother and more granular deltas, but require more historical depth from the platform.
When “Intrabar (Precise)” is active, the dashboard’s extended section shows the resolution and the number of bars for which precise volume has been successfully retrieved, in the format:
- Mode: Intrabar (15S) – where N is the count of bars with valid high‑resolution volume data.
In Geometry mode this counter simply reflects the processed bars in the current session.
3. Kinetic Vector Settings
Group: “Kinetic Vector”
A. Vector Window
- Vector Window – Controls the temporal smoothing applied to the aggregated vectors (trend, volume, delta, etc.). Internally, each bar’s vector value is averaged with a simple moving window of this length.
- Shorter windows make the state engine more reactive and sensitive to local swings.
- Longer windows make the states more stable and better suited to higher‑timeframe structure.
B. Max Prime Period
- Max Prime Period – Sets the largest prime number used in the EMA grid. The engine builds a family of EMAs on prime lengths (2, 3, 5, 7, …) up to this limit and converts their slopes into angles.
- A higher limit increases the number of long‑horizon EMAs in the grid and makes the vectors sensitive to broader structure.
- A lower limit focuses the analysis on short- and medium‑term behaviour.
C. Price Source
- Price Source – The price series from which the kinetic EMA grid is built (e.g., Close, HLC3, OHLC4). Changing the source modifies the context that the state engine is reading but does not change the core logic.
4. State Engine Settings
Group: “State Engine Settings”
These inputs define how the continuous vectors are translated into discrete states.
A. Trend Thresholds
- Strong Trend Threshold – Value above which the trend vector is treated as “extreme bullish” and below which it is “extreme bearish”.
- Weak Trend Threshold – Inner boundary between neutral and directional conditions.
Roughly:
- |trend| < weak → Neutral trend state.
- weak < |trend| ≤ strong → Bullish/Bearish.
- |trend| > strong → Extreme Bullish/Extreme Bearish.
B. Volume Thresholds
- Volume Climax Threshold – Upper bound at which volume is considered “climax” (unusually expanded participation).
- Volume Expansion Threshold – Boundary for normal expansion versus contraction.
Conceptually:
- Volume above “expansion” indicates increasing activity.
- Volume near or above “climax” marks extreme participation.
- Negative values below the symmetric thresholds map to contraction and extreme dry‑up (liquidity vacuum) states.
C. Delta Thresholds
- Strong Delta Threshold – Cut‑off for extreme buying or selling dominance in delta.
- Weak Delta Threshold – Threshold for mild buy/sell bias versus neutral order flow.
Combined with the sign of the delta vector, these thresholds classify order flow as:
- Extreme Buy, Buy‑Dominant, Neutral, Sell‑Dominant, Extreme Sell.
D. State Hysteresis Bars
- State Hysteresis Bars – Minimum number of bars for which a new state must persist before the engine commits to the change. This prevents the dashboard from flickering during fast spikes and emphasises persistent market behaviour.
- Smaller values switch states quickly; larger values demand more confirmation.
5. Visual Interface
Group: “Visual Interface”
A. Ribbon Base Color
- Ribbon Base Color – Base hue for the multi‑layer EMA ribbon drawn around price. The script plots a dense grid of hidden EMAs and fills the gaps between them to form a semi‑transparent band. Narrow, overlapping bands hint at compression; wider separation hints at dispersion across EMA horizons.
B. Show Dashboard
- Show Dashboard – Toggles the on‑chart table which summarises the current state engine output. Disable this if you only want to keep the EMA ribbon and volume‑based structure on the price chart.
C. Color Theme
- Color Theme – Switch between a dark and light style for the dashboard background and text colours so that the table matches your chart theme.
D. Table Position
- Table Position – Places the dashboard at any corner or edge of the chart (Top / Middle / Bottom × Left / Centre / Right).
E. Table Size
- Table Size – Changes the dashboard’s text size (Tiny, Small, Normal, Large). Use a larger size on high‑resolution screens or when streaming.
F. Show Extended Info
- Show Extended Info – Adds diagnostic rows under the main state summary:
- Mode / Primes / Vector – Shows the current calculation mode (Geometry / Intrabar), the selected intrabar resolution and coverage in bars ( ), how many prime periods are active, and the vector window.
- Values – Displays the current aggregated vectors:
- P: price vector
- V: volume vector
- B: buy‑volume vector
- S: sell‑volume vector
- D: delta vector
Values are bounded between ‑1 and +1.
- Volume Stats – Prints the last bar’s raw buy volume, sell volume and delta as formatted numbers.
- Footer – A final row with the symbol and current time: #SYMBOL | HH:MM.
These extended rows are meant for inspecting how the engine is behaving under the hood while you scroll the chart and compare different assets or timeframes.
6. Language Settings
Group: “Language Settings”
- Select Language – Switches the entire dashboard between English and Turkish.
The underlying calculations and scenario logic are identical; only the labels, titles and comments in the table are translated.
7. Dashboard Structure & Reading Guide
The table summarises the current situation in a few rows:
1. System Header – Shows the script name and the active calculation method (“Geometry” or “Intrabar”).
2. Scenario Title – High‑level description of the current combined scenario (e.g., “Trending Buy Confirmed”, “Sideways Balanced”, “Bull Trap”, “Blow‑Off Top”). The background colour is derived from the scenario family (trending, compression, exhaustion, anomaly, etc.).
3. Bias / Trend Line – States the dominant trend bias derived from the trend vector (Extreme Bullish, Bullish, Neutral, Bearish, Extreme Bearish).
4. Signal / Consideration Line – A short sentence giving qualitative guidance about the current state (for example: continuation risk, exhaustion risk, trap‑like behaviour, or compression). This is deliberately phrased as a consideration, not as a direct trading signal.
5. Trend / Volume / Delta Rows – Three separate rows explain, in plain language, how the trend, volume regime and delta are classified at this bar.
6. Extended Info (optional) – Mode / primes / vector settings, current vector values, and last‑bar volume statistics, as described above.
Together, these rows are meant to be read as a narrative of what price, volume and order‑flow are doing, not as mechanical instructions.
8. State Taxonomy
The state engine organizes market behaviour in three stages.
8.1 Trend States (from the Price Vector)
- Extreme Bullish Trend – The prime‑grid price vector is strongly upward; most EMAs are aligned to the upside.
- Bullish Trend – Upward bias is present, but less extreme.
- Neutral Trend – EMAs are mixed or flat; price is effectively sideways relative to the grid.
- Bearish Trend – Downward bias, with the EMA grid sloping down.
- Extreme Bearish Trend – Strong downside alignment across the grid.
8.2 Volume Regime States (from the Volume Vector)
- Volume Climax (Buy‑Side) – Strong positive volume vector; participation is unusually high in the current direction.
- Volume Expansion – Activity above normal but below the climax threshold.
- Neutral Volume – No major expansion or contraction versus recent history.
- Volume Contraction – Activity is drying up compared with the past.
- Extreme Dry‑Up / Liquidity Vacuum – Very low participation; the market is thin and prone to slippage.
8.3 Delta Behaviour States (from the Delta Vector)
- Extreme Buy Delta – Buying pressure dominates strongly.
- Buy‑Dominant Delta – Buy volume exceeds sell volume, but not at an extreme.
- Neutral Delta – Buy and sell flows are roughly balanced.
- Sell‑Dominant Delta – Selling pressure dominates.
- Extreme Sell Delta – Aggressive, one‑sided selling.
8.4 Combined Scenario State s
EMVOL uses the three base states above to generate a single scenario label. These scenarios are designed to be read as context, not as entry or exit signals.
Trending Scenarios
1. Trending Buy Confirmed
- Bullish or extreme bullish trend, supported by expanding or climax volume and buy‑side delta.
- Educational idea: a healthy uptrend where both participation and order flow agree with the direction.
2. Trending Buy – Weak Volume
- Bullish trend, but volume is neutral, contracting or in dry‑up while delta is still buy‑side.
- Educational idea: price is advancing, yet participation is thinning; trend continuation becomes more fragile.
3. Trending Sell Confirmed
- Bearish or extreme bearish trend, with expanding or climax volume and sell‑side delta.
- Educational idea: strong downtrend with both volume and order‑flow confirmation.
4. Trending Sell – Weak Volume
- Bearish trend, but volume is neutral, contracting or very low while delta remains sell‑side.
- Educational idea: downside continues but with limited participation; vulnerable to short‑covering.
Sideways / Range Scenarios
5. Sideways Balanced
- Neutral trend, neutral delta, neutral volume.
- Classic range environment; low directional edge, suitable for observation and context rather than trend trading.
6. Sideways with Buy Pressure
- Neutral trend, but buy‑side delta is dominant or extreme.
- Range with latent accumulation: price may still appear sideways, but buyers are quietly more active.
7. Sideways with Sell Pressure
- Neutral trend with dominant or extreme sell‑side delta.
- Distribution‑like environment where price chops while sellers are gradually more aggressive.
Exhaustion & Volume Extremes
8. Exhaustion – Buy Risk
- Extreme bullish trend, volume climax and strong buy‑side delta.
- Educational idea: very strong up‑move where both participation and delta are already stretched; risk of exhaustion or blow‑off.
9. Exhaustion – Sell Risk
- Extreme bearish trend, volume dry‑up and strong sell‑side delta.
- Suggests one‑sided selling into increasingly thin liquidity.
10. Volume Climax (Buy)
- Neutral trend, neutral delta, but volume at climax levels.
- Often associated with a “big event” bar where participation spikes without a clear directional commitment.
11. Volume Climax (Sell / Dry‑Up)
- Neutral trend and neutral delta, while the volume vector indicates an extreme dry‑up.
- Highlights a stand‑still episode: very limited interest from both sides, increasing the sensitivity to future impulses.
Divergences
12. Divergence – Bullish Context
- Bullish or extreme bullish trend, but delta has faded back to neutral.
- Price trend continues while order‑flow conviction softens; can precede pauses or complex corrections.
13. Divergence – Bearish Context
- Bearish or extreme bearish trend with a neutral delta.
- Downtrend persists, but selling pressure no longer dominates as clearly.
Consolidation & Compression
14. Consolidation
- Default state when no specific pattern dominates and the market is broadly balanced.
- Educational use: treat this as a “no strong edge” label; focus on structure rather than direction.
15. Breakout Imminent
- Neutral trend with contracting volume.
- Compression phase where energy is building up; often precedes transitions into trending or shock scenarios.
Traps & Hidden Divergences
16. Bull Trap
- Bullish trend, with neutral or contracting volume and sell‑side delta.
- Price appears strong, but order‑flow shifts against it; often seen near fake breakouts or failing rallies.
17. Bear Trap
- Bearish trend, neutral or contracting volume, but buy‑side delta.
- Downtrend “looks” intact, while buyers become more aggressive underneath the surface.
18. Hidden Bullish Divergence
- Bullish trend, contracting volume, but strong buy‑side delta.
- Educational idea: price dips or slows while aggressive buyers step in, often inside an ongoing uptrend.
19. Hidden Bearish Divergence
- Bearish trend, volume expansion and strong sell‑side delta.
- Reinforced downside pressure even if price is temporarily retracing.
Reversal & Transition Patterns
20. Reversal to Bearish
- Neutral trend, volume climax and strong sell‑side delta.
- Suggests that heavy selling appears at the top of a move, turning a previously neutral or rising context into potential downside.
21. Reversal to Bullish
- Neutral trend, extreme volume dry‑up and strong buy‑side delta.
- Often associated with selling exhaustion where buyers start to take control.
22. Indecision Spike
- Neutral trend with extreme volume (climax or dry‑up) but neutral delta.
- Crowd participation changes sharply while order‑flow remains undecided; treat as an informational spike rather than a direction.
Extended Compression & Acceleration
23. Coiling Phase
- Neutral trend, contracting volume, and delta that is neutral or only mildly one‑sided.
- Extended compression where price, volume and delta all contract into a tightly coiled range, often preceding a strong move.
24. Bullish Acceleration
- Bullish trend with volume expansion and strong buy‑side delta.
- Uptrend not only continues but gains kinetic strength; educationally, this illustrates how trend, volume and delta align in the strongest phases of a move.
25. Bearish Acceleration
- Bearish trend with volume expansion and strong sell‑side delta.
- Mirror image of Bullish Acceleration on the downside.
Trend Exhaustion & Climax Reversal
26. Bull Exhaustion
- Bullish or extreme bullish trend, with contraction or dry‑up in volume and buy‑side or neutral delta.
- The move has already travelled far; participation fades while price is still elevated.
27. Bear Exhaustion
- Bearish or extreme bearish trend, with volume climax or contraction and sell‑side or neutral delta.
- Down‑move may be approaching a point where additional selling pressure has diminishing impact.
28. Blow‑Off Top
- Extreme bullish trend, volume climax and extreme buy delta all at once.
- Classic blow‑off behaviour: price, volume and order‑flow are simultaneously stretched in the same direction.
29. Selling Climax Reversal
- Extreme bearish trend with extreme volume dry‑up and extreme sell‑side delta.
- Marks a very aggressive capitulation phase that can precede major rebounds.
Advanced VSA / Anomaly Scenarios
30. Absorption
- Typically neutral trend with expanding or climax volume and extreme delta (either buy or sell).
- Educational focus: large participants are aggressively absorbing liquidity from the opposite side, while price remains relatively contained.
31. Distribution
- Scenario where volume remains elevated while directional conviction weakens and the trend slows.
- Represents potential “selling into strength” or “buying into weakness”, depending on the active side.
32. Liquidity Vacuum
- Combination of thin liquidity (extreme dry‑up) with a directional trend or strong delta.
- Highlights environments where even small orders can move price disproportionately.
33. Anomaly / Shock Event
- Triggered when the vector z‑scores detect rare combinations of price, volume and delta behaviour that deviate from their own historical distribution.
- Intended as a warning label for unusual events rather than a specific tradeable pattern.
9. Educational Usage Notes
- EMVOL does not produce mechanical “buy” or “sell” commands. Instead, it classes each bar into an interpretable state so that traders can study how trends, volume and order‑flow interact over time.
- A common exercise is to overlay your usual EMA crossovers, support/resistance or price patterns and observe which EMVOL scenarios appear around entries, exits, traps and climaxes.
- Because the vectors are normalized (bounded between ‑1 and +1) and then discretized, the same conceptual states can be compared across different symbols and timeframes.

On Balance Volume [BrightSideTrading]
# On Balance Volume - Complete User Guide
## Overview
This enhanced OBV indicator provides clean, actionable volume analysis with intelligent signal filtering. It combines On-Balance Volume (OBV) with a smoothed signal line to identify shifts in buying and selling pressure without chart clutter.
**Key Features:**
- Real-time OBV and signal line visualization
- Smart crossover detection with confirmation filtering
- Z-Score momentum analysis
- Customizable signal alerts with V-shaped markers
- Window-normalized option for detrended analysis
---
## What is On-Balance Volume (OBV)?
OBV is a volume-based momentum indicator that accumulates volume on up days and subtracts volume on down days. It answers a fundamental question: **Is volume flowing in (buying) or out (selling)?**
**Formula:**
- If Close > Previous Close: OBV = Previous OBV + Volume
- If Close < Previous Close: OBV = Previous OBV - Volume
- If Close = Previous Close: OBV = Previous OBV (unchanged)
**What it tells you:**
- **Rising OBV** = Accumulation (smart money buying)
- **Falling OBV** = Distribution (smart money selling)
- **OBV above zero line** = Net positive buying pressure
- **OBV below zero line** = Net negative selling pressure
---
## Interface & Settings
### **MAIN VISUALIZATION**
**OBV Line (Green/Red Ribbon)**
- Green when OBV is above the signal line (bullish trend)
- Red when OBV is below the signal line (bearish trend)
- Toggles between window-normalized (detrended) and raw values
**Signal Line (Orange)**
- Smoothed average of OBV
- Crossovers with OBV generate buy/sell signals
- Default: 21-period SMA
**V-Shaped Markers**
- Green upward V = Bullish crossover (buy signal)
- Red downward V = Bearish crossover (sell signal)
- Appears at the OBV value when signal is triggered
**Zero Line (Yellow)**
- Center equilibrium point for volume balance
- Acts as support/resistance for OBV
- Separates buying pressure (above) from selling pressure (below)
---
### **SOURCE GROUP**
**Source**
- **Default:** Close
- **Options:** Open, High, Low, or any custom value
- Controls which price value triggers OBV direction changes
- Most traders use Close for standard OBV calculation
---
### **SIGNAL SMOOTHING GROUP**
**Show Signal?**
- **Default:** ON
- Toggle visibility of the signal line
- Disable if you prefer to see raw OBV only
**Smoothing Type**
- **SMA (Simple Moving Average)** - Default, standard smoothing
- **EMA (Exponential Moving Average)** - Faster response, weights recent bars more heavily
- **Choose SMA** for consistent, traditional OBV signals
- **Choose EMA** for faster trend identification (more whipsaws possible)
**Smoothing Length**
- **Default:** 21 bars
- **Range:** 1-200 bars
- **Lower values** (5-14): Faster signals, more noise
- **Higher values** (30-50): Slower signals, fewer false alarms
- **Recommendation:** Use 21-25 for most timeframes
---
### **SIGNAL FILTERING GROUP**
This is your primary control for signal quality and frequency.
**Show Signal Markers?**
- **Default:** ON
- Toggle the V-shaped buy/sell markers on/off
- Disable if markers distract from your analysis
**Signal Filter Type**
- **None** - Shows every single crossover (noisy, best for skilled traders)
- **Confirmation Bars** - Waits N bars before confirming signal (recommended)
- **Strength-Based** - Only signals during strong momentum (filters weakest moves)
#### **CONFIRMATION BARS MODE** (Recommended)
Best for reducing false signals while staying responsive to real moves.
**Confirmation Bars**
- **Default:** 2 bars
- **Range:** 1-10 bars
- Waits for the signal to hold for N consecutive bars after crossover
- **Setting 1:** Every crossover (same as "None")
- **Setting 2:** Wait 1 bar confirmation (good balance)
- **Setting 3:** Wait 2 bars confirmation (filters 50% of noise)
- **Setting 4+:** Very selective, misses quick reversals
**How it works:**
1. OBV crosses signal line → Confirmation counter starts
2. If OBV stays on correct side for 2 bars → V-marker appears
3. If OBV crosses back → Counter resets, no signal
#### **STRENGTH-BASED MODE**
Only signals when momentum is statistically significant.
**Min Z-Score Strength**
- **Default:** 0.3
- **Range:** 0.0-3.0
- Requires OBV deviation from its mean to reach this threshold
- **Setting 0.1-0.3:** More signals, lower quality
- **Setting 0.5-0.8:** Moderate signals, good quality
- **Setting 1.0+:** Only the strongest momentum shifts
**How it works:**
- Calculates how far OBV is from its 50-bar average (Z-score)
- Only shows signals when this distance is meaningful
- Automatically avoids weak, choppy market conditions

**Setup:**
- Signal Filter Type: **Confirmation Bars**
- Confirmation Bars: **2-3**
- Show Signal Markers: **ON**
**Rules:**
1. **BUY signal** (green V): When OBV crosses above signal line and holds for 2-3 bars
- Confirms buying pressure is building
- Look for price to follow within 1-3 bars
2. **SELL signal** (red V): When OBV crosses below signal line and holds for 2-3 bars
- Confirms selling pressure is increasing
- Expect price decline
3. **Exit:** Take profits at next signal or use price support/resistance

2. **Fade extremes:** Take opposite position when Z-Score hits extreme
- High Z (>2.0) = OBV overbought, expect pullback
- Low Z (<-2.0) = OBV oversold, expect bounce
3. **Confirm:** Wait for crossover signal to enter
4. **Target:** Outer zone of opposite side or zero line
**Best For:** Range trading, mean reversion, experienced traders only

## Common Questions & Troubleshooting
**Q: Why are there more sell signals than buy signals?**
A: This reflects the actual market action. Markets often decline faster than they rise (fear > greed). Confirm signals with price action and support/resistance.
**Q: The indicator keeps whipsawing, should I hide it?**
A: Increase Confirmation Bars to 3-4 or switch to Strength-Based filter. Market conditions matter—choppy markets require stricter filters.
**Q: What's the difference between normalized and raw OBV?**
A: Normalized (detrended) shows shorter-term momentum by removing long-term trends. Raw OBV shows absolute accumulation/distribution over the full period. Use normalized for swing signals, raw for trend confirmation.
**Q: My signals come too late. How do I get faster entry?**
A: Reduce Smoothing Length (try 14 instead of 21), use EMA instead of SMA, or set Confirmation Bars to 1. Trade-off: More false signals.
**Q: Can I use this for day trading?**
A: Yes, on 1m-5m charts with aggressive settings. Use Confirmation Bars: 1 and focus on Z-Score > 0.5 entries only.
**Q: Should I trade every signal?**
A: No. Filter signals using: price near support/resistance, multiple indicators confirming, and Z-Score showing momentum. Best signals occur at key levels.

## Best Practices
1. **Always confirm with price action:** OBV signals work best when price is near support, resistance, or moving average. Don't trade signals in a vacuum.
2. **Use volume context:** Check if volume is increasing or decreasing on the signal. Strong signals have volume confirmation (increasing volume on OBV spikes).
3. **Adjust settings per timeframe:**
- 1m-5m: Smoothing 12, Confirmation 1, Z-Score 0.2
- 15m-1h: Smoothing 20, Confirmation 2, Z-Score 0.3
- 4h-1d: Smoothing 25, Confirmation 3, Z-Score 0.5
4. **Watch the zero line:** It's your friend. OBV behavior at the zero line reveals trend strength. Bounces = healthy trend. Breaks = reversal.
5. **Risk management:** No indicator is perfect. Use proper position sizing and stop losses. OBV should confirm your thesis, not be the only reason to trade.
6. **Combine with other indicators:**
- Price moving averages for trend confirmation
- RSI or Stochastic for overbought/oversold levels
- Support/resistance for entry/exit zones
- MACD for momentum divergences

Effort per 1% Move (Normalized Columns)This indicator Shows a Normalized "effort" needed to move a certain assets price by 1 percent.
Used correctly, this can help in visualizing manipulation and shows a certain chance of a candle turning to a swing point.
KIMATIX S|R Zones Intra-SwingKIMATIX S|R Zones Intra-Swing is a higher-timeframe support–resistance engine designed to map the most important swing levels for intraday and swing traders.
The script scans Daily and 4H price action, detects wick-based swing highs and lows,
and converts them into clean S/R zones that project into the future.
Zones are color-coded by timeframe and by role (support or resistance),
giving you an instant visual map of where price is most likely to react.
When price breaks cleanly through a zone,
it dynamically flips (resistance → support or support → resistance),
so your levels always reflect the current market structure.
To avoid clutter, only the closest zones around current price are displayed – ideal for planning entries, targets, and stop placement.
Use it as a higher-timeframe roadmap and combine it with your intraday execution system for precise, high-confluence trades.
Volume Anomaly AVWAP BiasThis indicator detects volume anomaly candles and tracks their anchored VWAPs. It measures the percentage of following candles that close on the favored side of each anomaly's VWAP and only continues to track anomalies with strong directional bias until broken.
Liquidation HeatmapSDSH Liquidation Heatmap: Stochastic Microstructure Modeling
Technical Summary
This indicator implements an advanced algorithmic approach for the detection of liquidity and liquidation zones using the State-Dependent Spread Hawkes (SDSH) model. Unlike conventional heatmaps that aggregate raw Ask/Bid and Open Interest (OI) data from external data providers, this script generates a synthetic liquidity topology based purely on the physics of price movement and market microstructure.
Scientific Foundation: The SDSH Model
The core of the indicator relies on two integrated mathematical components that allow for the inference of latent order locations without reading the Limit Order Book (LOB):
State-Dependent Spread Estimation: It uses variations of range-based volatility estimators (based on Corwin-Schultz principles) to calculate the "effective spread" of the market in real-time. This allows determining the actual price friction and, consequently, where leveraged positions are statistically likely to accumulate.
Self-Exciting Hawkes Processes: A stochastic point process model (Hawkes Process) is applied to measure the "intensity" of liquidity events. The algorithm assumes that order arrivals and volatility cluster in time; the model quantifies this market "memory" to project the future intensity of liquidations.
High-Fidelity Replication without Level 2 Data
The critical value of this indicator lies in its ability to replicate with spatial exactitude the zones that a Liquidation Heatmap based on Tick-level or real market depth data would signal, but operating in a "black box" environment regarding provider data.
By triangulating volatility, temporal intensity decay (Hawkes Decay), and standard leverage projections (100x, 50x, 25x), the algorithm reconstructs the liquidation map. Mathematically, real liquidation zones are a function of participant entry and subsequent volatility; by modeling these variables accurately, the visual result converges with the actual location of stop-losses and mass liquidation points.
Utility for Quantitative Modeling (Quants)
This tool is designed for research and quantitative trading environments that require:
Data Independence: Elimination of the need for expensive subscriptions to Open Interest or Depth of Market (DOM) data.
Noise Filtering: As a mathematical model, it filters out "spoofing" (fake orders in the book) that often clutters traditional heatmaps, showing only zones where market structure mathematically forces the existence of liquidity.
Structural Backtesting: It allows for the validation of mean reversion and liquidity breakout strategies on historical data where market depth information is often unavailable or unreliable.
Visual Parameters
The indicator renders "stress boxes" with opacity gradients based on the probability of price collision.
Colors: Map the density of estimated synthetic contracts.
Persistence: Zones remain active until the price interacts with them (absorption) or the model determines that liquidity has dissipated (Hawkes decay).
VWAP From Pivots Lows and Highs
This script starts automatically VWAP from pivot lows and highs.
Parameter allows you to enable up to 3 VWAP (default).
If you use 3, the VWAP from the last three pivots point will be drawn.
If you use 1, just the last pivot point will be used.
You can also just enable VWAPs starting from pivot lows or highs.

Non-Repainting Dynamic EMA SystemDynamic EMA System - Detailed Explanation
Overview
This indicator creates four adaptive Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) that automatically adjust their periods based on current market conditions. Unlike traditional fixed-period EMAs, these lines dynamically become faster or slower to better match the market's behavior.
Core Components
1. Base EMA Lengths (Starting Points)
EMA 1: Base period of 10 (fastest)
EMA 2: Base period of 20 (fast-medium)
EMA 3: Base period of 30 (medium)
EMA 4: Base period of 200 (trend identifier)
These base values are not fixed—they serve as starting points that get multiplied by various market condition factors.
Market Analysis Features
The indicator analyzes 12 different market characteristics to understand current conditions:
Technical Indicators Used:
RSI (Relative Strength Index)
Measures momentum and overbought/oversold conditions
Normalized to 0-1 scale
ADX (Average Directional Index)
Measures trend strength
Higher values = stronger trends
Bollinger Bands Position
Shows where price sits relative to volatility bands
Indicates potential reversals or breakouts
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
Institutional trading benchmark
Signals if price is above/below average weighted price
Ichimoku Cloud
Japanese indicator showing support/resistance
Tenkan-Kijun relationship indicates trend direction
TRAMA (Triangular Moving Average)
Advanced adaptive moving average
Responds to genuine price movements
Volume Analysis
Compares current volume to 20-period average
Higher volume = more significant moves
ATR-Based Volatility
Weighted by volume for accuracy
Adjusts EMAs to market speed
Shannon Entropy
Measures market randomness vs. order
High entropy = choppy; Low entropy = trending
Price Correlation (Short-term)
How consistent price movements are
Detects momentum shifts
Price Correlation (Long-term)
Broader trend consistency
Confirms regime stability
Volume Strength
Normalized volume ratio
Validates price movements
How Length Adaptation Works
Market Regimes Identified:
The system identifies 4 distinct market conditions based on the 12 features:
Regime 1 (Green): Calm, ranging market → Shorter EMAs (more responsive)
Regime 2 (Blue): Strong trending market → Medium-length EMAs (balance speed/noise)
Regime 3 (Red): High volatility/choppy → Longer EMAs (filter noise)
Regime 4 (Gray): Transitional/neutral → Moderate EMAs (adaptive middle ground)
Adaptation Formula:
Each EMA length is calculated as:
Final Length = Base Length × Regime Multiplier × Volatility Adjustment × Momentum Adjustment × Entropy Adjustment
Where:
Regime Multiplier: 0.3x to 2.5x depending on market type
Volatility Adjustment: Increases length during high volatility (filters noise)
Momentum Adjustment: Based on RSI - extreme readings adjust sensitivity
Entropy Adjustment: Lower entropy (trending) = tighter EMAs
Key Adaptive Features
1. Volatility Response
When market volatility increases:
EMAs lengthen automatically to avoid whipsaws
Calculated using ATR weighted by volume
2. Volume Integration
Higher volume makes the system:
React faster to price changes
Increase learning rate
Trust the current move more
3. Correlation Analysis
Short-term correlation: Detects immediate momentum
Long-term correlation: Confirms overall trend stability
Adjusts EMA sensitivity accordingly
4. Entropy Monitoring
Measures market "disorder"
Trending markets → Tighter EMAs (follow trend)
Choppy markets → Wider EMAs (reduce noise)
Non-Repainting Design
Critical Safety Features:
Confirmed Data Only
All calculations use close , high , low , etc.
Current bar data is only used if barstate.isconfirmed
Locked Updates
EMA lengths only change when bar closes
Variables prefixed with confirmed_ store locked values
No Look-Ahead
System learns from past bars only
Future data cannot influence current values
Historical Consistency
Once a bar closes, its EMA values never change
Alerts and signals are reliable
Visual Interpretation
Background Colors:
Green: Calm/ranging market (Regime 1)
Blue: Strong trend (Regime 2)
Red: High volatility/choppy (Regime 3)
Gray: Transitional state (Regime 4)
Color transparency indicates confidence:
Solid color = High confidence in regime identification
Faint color = Lower confidence, potential transition
EMA Lines:
Red EMA (fastest): Short-term momentum
Orange EMA: Medium-term trend
Yellow EMA: Intermediate trend confirmation
Blue EMA: Long-term trend direction

Summary
This is an intelligent, self-adjusting EMA system that reads 12 different market characteristics to automatically optimize its speed. It identifies whether the market is trending, ranging, volatile, or transitional, then adjusts all four EMAs accordingly. The non-repainting design ensures historical accuracy, while the quality metrics (Silhouette score, regime strength) tell you when to trust the signals most.

Volume Delta + Bandas de Bollinger📊 Volume Delta + Bollinger Bands Indicator
Characteristics
• Volume Delta Histogram
• Shows the difference between buying and selling pressure.
• Green bars indicate positive delta (buyers dominating).
• Red bars indicate negative delta (sellers dominating).
• The histogram oscillates around the zero line, which represents balance between buyers and sellers.
• Bollinger Bands applied to Delta
• A moving average (basis line) of the delta is calculated.
• Upper and lower bands are plotted using standard deviation.
• These bands highlight periods when the delta moves to statistically extreme levels.
• Helps identify unusual buying or selling pressure compared to recent history.
• Zero Line Reference
• A horizontal line at zero shows equilibrium.
• Crossing above zero suggests net buying pressure.
• Crossing below zero suggests net selling pressure.
How to Use
• Identify Buyer/Seller Dominance
• Green histogram bars above zero → buyers are stronger.
• Red histogram bars below zero → sellers are stronger.
• Spot Extremes with Bollinger Bands
• When delta touches or exceeds the upper band, it signals unusually strong buying pressure.
• When delta touches or exceeds the lower band, it signals unusually strong selling pressure.
• These extremes can precede reversals or mark continuation if confirmed by price action.
• Combine with Price Analysis
• Use delta signals together with price trends and support/resistance levels.
• For example, if price is at resistance and delta spikes into the upper band, it may indicate exhaustion of buyers.
• If price is at support and delta spikes into the lower band, it may indicate exhaustion of sellers.
• Trading Strategy Ideas
• Reversal setups: Look for delta extremes against key price levels.
• Trend confirmation: Sustained delta above zero supports bullish trends; sustained delta below zero supports bearish trends.
• Volatility filter: Bollinger Bands help filter out normal fluctuations and highlight significant imbalances.
👉 In short, this indicator combines order flow pressure (delta) with volatility context (Bollinger Bands), making it useful for spotting moments when buying or selling activity becomes unusually strong compared to recent history.
Triple ATR Adaptive MAs + VWAP Option + Clouds + Candle Trend V2Another one of my experiences ... combining things...
📘 Indicator Description – Triple ATR Adaptive Moving Averages with VWAP Influence
This indicator plots three adaptive moving averages whose behavior changes dynamically based on market volatility (ATR) and optionally VWAP deviation.
Because they adapt in real time to both volatility and VWAP pressure, their movement, slope, and reaction speed differ significantly from traditional moving averages.
🔶 1. ATR-Adaptive Moving Averages
Each of the three MAs uses a custom adaptive formula:
ATR (Average True Range) is measured over a chosen period.
Higher ATR → more volatility → the MA becomes more reactive and moves closer to price.
Lower ATR → stable market → the MA becomes smoother and slower.
This creates a volatility-aware smoothing factor, making the MA expand, contract, and respond to market conditions in ways a classic SMA, EMA, or HMA cannot.
🔷 2. Optional VWAP Influence
Each MA has an independent toggle allowing it to be influenced by VWAP.
When enabled:
The MA is gently “pulled” toward VWAP.
The strength of this attraction is determined by the VWAP Influence parameter (0–1).
This causes the moving averages to behave differently from normal MAs:
In trending markets, the ATR and price push the MA away from VWAP.
In mean-reverting or balanced conditions, VWAP pulls the MA back toward fair value.
The result is an MA that reflects both trend pressure and fair-value pressure.
🔶 3. Visual Behavior: Non-Traditional Movement
Because each MA is simultaneously influenced by volatility, trend magnitude, and VWAP deviation, their shape is often very distinct from normal moving averages.
They may:
Respond faster during high volatility
Flatten out earlier during consolidation
Curve toward VWAP when price becomes extended
Separate or compress depending on ATR strength
This is intentional and essential, since the goal is to show:
✔ Volatility expansion
✔ Trend exhaustion
✔ Overextended price relative to VWAP
✔ Dynamic trend confirmation
Rather than simply smoothing past price.
🔷 4. Three Independent Adaptive Lines
Each of the three moving averages has:
Its own ATR length
Its own sensitivity multiplier
Its own optional VWAP influence
Its own color and trail
This allows the user to combine:
a fast volatility-adaptive trend line
a mid-range adaptive baseline
a slow adaptive long-trend MA
All adapting independently to volatility and VWAP conditions.
🔶 5. Optional Candle Coloring
The indicator can color candles according to trend strength derived from the fast/slow MAs.
Stronger trends produce more vivid colors. Neutral or conflicting trends produce softer colors.
This adds a visual layer to identify:
Trend direction
Trend strength
Volatility state
Market compression
at a glance.
📌 Summary
This indicator does not behave like standard SMAs or EMAs because each line dynamically adapts to:
🔸 ATR (volatility)
🔸 VWAP (fair value)
This makes the indicator extremely responsive to market conditions while still reducing noise during stable phases.
It provides a more realistic, context-aware, and intelligent representation of price behavior compared to traditional moving averages.
SMAs TimePortalPlots 5× SMAs from 3 different timeframes - plus current chart timeframe
Plots 2× VWAPs with bands.
Meant for personal use, but maybe you can find it useful too.
Disclaimer: Beware I might update this with big changes in the future.

Delta Bars [Elykia]Delta Bars — Order Flow & Momentum Analysis
Description:
Delta Bars is an "Order Flow Oscillator" designed to instantly visualize buyer and seller aggression within every price move.
Unlike standard volume, it breaks down what is happening "under the hood" (Delta) and offers a clear reading of market reversals thanks to intelligent divergence detection.
🔥 Key Features:
1. Dual Calculation Mode:
Timeframe Mode: Displays classic Delta based on time (e.g., 1min, 5min).
Range Bars Mode: (Exclusive) Builds Delta bars based on price movement (volatility) rather than time. This filters out noise during consolidation periods and reveals true strength during impulses.
2. 🧠 Smart Auto-Detection (Plug & Play):
No need to manually calculate "Box" or "Tick" sizes for each asset. The indicator automatically recognizes the asset you are trading and applies the optimal institutional calibration:
US Indices (NQ, ES, YM...)
Forex (EURUSD, JPY...)
Crypto (BTC, ETH)
Commodities (Gold, Oil)
Note: You can still switch to manual mode if needed.
3. "Flip" Detection (Divergences) ⚡:
The indicator automatically identifies anomalies between price and Delta:
If the candle closes Green but Delta is Negative (Absorption/Failed Selling Effort).
If the candle closes Red but Delta is Positive.
These situations are marked with a ⚡ symbol and a specific highlight color (Orange by default), often signaling an imminent reversal.
4. Technical Dashboard:
A discreet panel displays the current mode and "Box" size (in ticks/points) in real-time, ensuring you always know how the data is being filtered.
How to read the signals?
1. Green/Red Bars: They indicate Net Delta (the difference between buying and selling volume). A tall bar implies strong conviction.
2. The ⚡ Symbol (The Flip): This is the most critical signal. It appears when Delta contradicts the candle direction (e.g., Positive Delta on a Bearish candle). This indicates Absorption (passive orders blocking the move) and often precedes a reversal.
3. Range Bars Mode: Use this mode to "smooth out" the market. If the market is choppy, Range Bars will filter the noise and only draw a new bar if the price actually moves.
⚠️ Important: Replay Mode
Since this indicator performs heavy calculations (simulated tick-by-tick), it includes a safety feature for Replay Mode.
To use Replay: Go to settings and set the "Force Replay Date" to a date close to your starting point. This ensures maximum fluidity and avoids TradingView limit errors.
Configuration:
Works on all timeframes but excels on seconds charts (1s, 5s) or fast minute charts (1m) for scalping.
