Individual investors can discover the direction of the flow of large funds through on-chain transfers. These large funds are often referred to as Whale. Whale can have a significant impact on the price movements of cryptocurrencies, especially Bitcoin . Therefore, how to monitor Whale trends is of great significance both in terms of fundamentals and technical aspects.

Readme

In real life, I am a prolific inventor. I have successfully applied for more than 60 international and regional patents in the past 12 years. But in the past two years or so, I have tried to transfer my creativity to the development of trading strategies. Tradingview is the ideal platform for me. I am selecting and contributing some of the hundreds of scripts to publish in Tradingview community. Welcome everyone to interact with me to discuss these interesting pine scripts.

The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works.

Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.

Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.

Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.

Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.

Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.

Please BLACKCAT .... I ask you if you return to leave the bars of the original color, when the green and red bars were shown, since now they are blue and in those green and red bars there was information if the price was going up or down, I ask you please, thank you

Amazing script! Works very good with my strategy. My question is: which information give us these yellow bars? What means a bar is higher than others?
Thank you master!

I am just guessing how to read this indicator. The ribbon is metering the momentum; the yellow histogram shows the extent of the whales' activities, the very tiny red and green boxes at the axis (or neutral line), I have no idea what they are.
Please Blackcat, could you explain how to make use of the indicator. I am hoping it could foretell whales' pumping. No?

If I may give input, is that when two indicators are combined such as this one, if the amplitude of the first one is much bigger than the second one, it made the second one to be hard to be seen or appears just as a flat line in the middle. I've tried this indicator on stocks and the middle (whale pump part?) appeared as just one line most of the time. Thanks and regards.

@MasBart, could you share the trading pair and time frame you use that have the problem? I will look into it.

@blackcat1402, I focus on stocks so for example: AAPL and GOOG, with daily timeframe. Thanks
