Obsidian Flux Matrix# Obsidian Flux Matrix | JackOfAllTrades Made with my Senior Level AI Pine Script v6 coding bot for the community! Narrative Overview Obsidian Flux Matrix (OFM) is an open-source Pine Script v6 study that fuses social sentiment, higher timeframe trend bias, fair-value-gap detection, liquidity raids, VWAP gravitation, session profiling, and a diagnostic HUD. The layout keeps the obsidian palette so critical overlays stay readable without overwhelming a price chart. Purpose & Scope OFM focuses on actionable structure rather than marketing claims. It documents every driver that powers its confluence engine so reviewers understand what triggers each visual. Core Analytical Pillars 1. Social Pulse Engine Sentiment Webhook Feed: Accepts normalized scores (-1 to +1). Signals only arm when the EMA-smoothed value exceeds the `sentimentMin` input (0.35 by default). Volume Confirmation: Requires local volume > 30-bar average × `volSpikeMult` (default 2.0) before sentiment flags. EMA Cross Validation: Fast EMA 8 crossing above/below slow EMA 21 keeps momentum aligned with flow. Momentum Alignment: Multi-timeframe momentum composite must agree (positive for longs, negative for shorts). 2. Peer Momentum Heatmap Multi-Timeframe Blend: RSI + Stoch RSI fetched via request.security() on 1H/4H/1D by default. Composite Scoring: Each timeframe votes +1/-1/0; totals are clamped between -3 and +3. Intraday Readability: Configurable band thickness (1-5) so scalpers see context without losing space. Dynamic Opacity: Stronger agreement boosts column opacity for quick bias checks. 3. Trend & Displacement Framework Dual EMA Ribbon: Cyan/magenta ribbon highlights immediate posture. HTF Bias: A higher-timeframe EMA (default 55 on 4H) sets macro direction. Displacement Score: Body-to-ATR ratio (>1.4 default) detects impulses that seed FVGs or VWAP raids. ATR Normalization: All thresholds float with volatility so the study adapts to assets and regimes. 4. Intelligent Fair Value Gap (FVG) System Gap Detection: Three-candle logic (bullish: low > high ; bearish: high < low ) with ATR-sized minimums (0.15 × ATR default). Overlap Prevention: Price-range checks stop redundant boxes. Spacing Control: `fvgMinSpacing` (default 5) avoids stacking from the same impulse. Storage Caps: Max three FVGs per side unless the user widens the limit. Session Awareness: Kill zone filters keep taps focused on London/NY if desired. Auto Cleanup: Boxes delete when price closes beyond their invalidation level. 5. VWAP Magnet + Liquidity Raid Engine Session or Rolling VWAP: Toggle resets to match intraday or rolling preferences. Equal High/Low Scanner: Looks back 20 bars by default for liquidity pools. Displacement Filter: ATR multiplier ensures raids represent genuine liquidity sweeps. Mean Reversion Focus: Signals fire when price displaces back toward VWAP following a raid. 6. Session Range Breakout System Initial Balance Tracking: First N bars (15 default) define the session box. Breakout Logic: Requires simultaneous liquidity spikes, nearby FVG activity, and supportive momentum. Z-Score Volume Filter: >1.5σ by default to filter noisy moves. 7. Lifestyle Liquidity Scanner Volume Z-Scores: 50-bar baseline highlights statistically significant spikes. Smart Money Footprints: Bottom-of-chart squares color-code buy vs sell participation. Panel Memory: HUD logs the last five raid timestamps, direction, and normalized size. 8. Risk Matrix & Diagnostic HUD HUD Structure: Table in the top-right summarizes HTF bias, sentiment, momentum, range state, liquidity memory, and current risk references. Signal Tags: Aggregates SPS, FVG, VWAP, Range, and Liquidity states into a compact string. Risk Metrics: Swing-based stops (5-bar lookback) + ATR targets (1.5× default) keep risk transparent. Signal Families & Alerts Social Pulse (SPS): Volume-confirmed sentiment alignment; triangle markers with “SPS”. Kill-Zone FVG: Session + HTF alignment + FVG tap; arrow markers plus SL/TP labels. Local FVG: Captures local reversals when HTF bias has not flipped yet. VWAP Raid: Equal-high/low raids that snap toward VWAP; “VWAP” label markers. Range Breakout: Initial balance violations with liquidity and imbalance confirmation; circle markers. Liquidity Spike: Z-score spikes ≥ threshold; square markers along the baseline. Visual Design & Customization Theme Palette: Primary background RGB (12,6,24). Accent shading RGB (26,10,48). Long accents RGB (88,174,255). Short accents RGB (219,109,255). Stylized Candles: Optional overlay using theme colors. Signal Toggles: Independently enable markers, heatmap, and diagnostics. Label Spacing: Auto-spacing enforces ≥4-bar gaps to prevent text overlap. Customization & Workflow Notes Adjust ATR/FVG thresholds when volatility shifts. Re-anchor sentiment to your webhook cadence; EMA smoothing (default 5) dampens noise. Reposition the HUD by editing the `table.new` coordinates. Use multiples of the chart timeframe for HTF requests to minimize load. Session inputs accept exchange-local time; align them to your market. Performance & Compliance Pure Pine v6: Single-line statements, no `lookahead_on`. Resource Safe: Arrays trimmed, boxes limited, `request.security` cached. Repaint Awareness: Signals confirm on close; alerts mirror on-chart logic. Runtime Safety: Arrays/loops guard against `na`. Use Cases Measure when social sentiment aligns with structure. Plan ICT-style intraday rebalances around session-specific FVG taps. Fade VWAP raids when displacement shows exhaustion. Watch initial balance breaks backed by statistical volume. Keep risk/target references anchored in ATR logic. Signal Logic Snapshot Social Pulse Long/Short: `sentimentEMA` gated by `sentimentMin`, `volSpike`, EMA 8/21 cross, and `momoComposite` sign agreement. Keeps hype tied to structural follow-through. Kill-Zone FVG Long/Short: Requires session filter, HTF EMA bias alignment, and an active FVG tap (`bullFvgTap` / `bearFvgTap`). Labels include swing stops + ATR targets pulled from `swingLookback` and `liqTargetMultiple`. Local FVG Long/Short: Uses `localBullish` / `localBearish` heuristics (EMA slope, displacement, sequential closes) to surface intraday reversals even when HTF bias has not flipped. VWAP Raids: Detect equal-high/equal-low sweeps (`raidHigh`, `raidLow`) that revert toward `sessionVwap` or rolling VWAP when displacement exceeds `vwapAlertDisplace`. Range Breakouts: Combine `rangeComplete`, breakout confirmation, liquidity spikes, and nearby FVG activity for statistically backed initial balance breaks. Liquidity Spikes: Volume Z-score > `zScoreThreshold` logs direction, size, and timestamp for the HUD and optional review workflows. Session Logic & VWAP Handling Kill zone + NY session inputs use TradingView’s session strings; `f_inSession()` drives both visual shading and whether FVG taps are tradeable when `killZoneOnly` is true. Session VWAP resets using cumulative price × volume sums that restart when the daily timestamp changes; rolling VWAP falls back to `ta.vwap(hlc3)` for instruments where daily resets are less relevant. Initial balance box (`rangeBars` input) locks once complete, extends forward, and stays on chart to contextualize later liquidity raids or breakouts. Parameter Reference Trend: `emaFastLen`, `emaSlowLen`, `htfResolution`, `htfEmaLen`, `showEmaRibbon`, `showHtfBiasLine`. Momentum: `tf1`, `tf2`, `tf3`, `rsiLen`, `stochLen`, `stochSmooth`, `heatmapHeight`. Volume/Liquidity: `volLookback`, `volSpikeMult`, `zScoreLen`, `zScoreThreshold`, `equalLookback`. VWAP & Sessions: `vwapMode`, `showVwapLine`, `vwapAlertDisplace`, `killSession`, `nySession`, `showSessionShade`, `rangeBars`. FVG/Risk: `fvgMinTicks`, `fvgLookback`, `fvgMinSpacing`, `killZoneOnly`, `liqTargetMultiple`, `swingLookback`. Visualization Toggles: `showSignalMarkers`, `showHeatmapBand`, `showInfoPanel`, `showStylizedCandles`. Workflow Recipes Kill-Zone Continuation: During the defined kill session, look for `killFvgLong` or `killFvgShort` arrows that line up with `sentimentValid` and positive `momoComposite`. Use the HUD’s risk readout to confirm SL/TP distances before entering. VWAP Raid Fade: Outside kill zone, track `raidToVwapLong/Short`. Confirm the candle body exceeds the displacement multiplier, and price crosses back toward VWAP before considering reversions. Range Break Monitor: After the initial balance locks, mark `rangeBreakLong/Short` circles only when the momentum band is >0 or <0 respectively and a fresh FVG box sits near price. Liquidity Spike Review: When the HUD shows “Liquidity” timestamps, hover the plotted squares at chart bottom to see whether spikes were buy/sell oriented and if local FVGs formed immediately after.

Copper_to_Gold_Ratio by Zeche Cu/Au Ratio – LINES + LABELS is a clean, macro-oriented indicator built around the Copper/Gold price ratio — a well-known gauge of economic strength, market sentiment, and shifts between risk-taking and risk-aversion. The script calculates: the 120-day SMA of the Copper/Gold ratio the standard deviation over the same period the ±1σ, ±1.5σ, and ±2σ deviation bands automatic labels on the last bar for maximum clarity The design is minimalistic and visually optimized so users can quickly understand where the current ratio sits relative to long-term norms. The deviation zones help highlight moments when the market transitions into RISK-ON or RISK-OFF behavior. How to interpret the signals: Above +2σ → RISK-OFF environment (defensive tone, macro stress) Below −2σ → RISK-ON environment (increased risk appetite) ±1σ bands represent normal cyclical movements The SMA acts as the long-term equilibrium level

Daily Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) Simulator & Yearly PerformanceThis indicator simulates a "Daily Dollar Cost Averaging" strategy directly on your chart. Unlike standard backtesters that trade based on signals, this script calculates the performance of a portfolio where a fixed dollar amount is invested every single day, regardless of price action. Key Features: Daily Accumulation: Simulates buying a specific dollar amount (e.g., $10) at the market close every day. Yearly Breakdown Table: A detailed dashboard displayed on the chart that breaks down performance by year. It tracks total invested, average entry price, total holdings, current value, and PnL percentage for each individual year. Global Stats: The bottom row of the table summarizes the total performance of the entire strategy since the start date. Breakeven Line: Plots a yellow line on the chart representing your "Global Average Price." When the current price is above this line, the total strategy is in profit. How to Use: Add to chart (Works best on the Daily (D) timeframe). Open settings to adjust your Daily Investment Amount and Start Year. The table will automatically update to show how a daily investment strategy would have performed over time.

A.P.E Quarter PtsThis indicator draws a set of straight horizontal price levels on your chart. Each line is spaced evenly apart at a distance you choose — these are called quarter-points. As price moves, the grid of lines stays centered around the current price, so you always see the nearest support and resistance levels. The lines above price show possible resistance, and the lines below price show possible support. Some of the lines can be drawn thicker or in a stronger color to show more important levels. Overall, the indicator gives you a clean, easy-to-read structure of evenly spaced levels that help you see where price may react, stall, bounce, or reverse.

Smart Non-Overlapping S/R How to Interpret This Chart The "Cluster" Effect: Look for areas where lines from different timeframes are close together (e.g., a Daily Support line is right next to a 4-Hour Support line). These "clusters" are very strong zones where price is highly likely to bounce. Breakouts: Bullish Breakout: If a candle closes above a Resistance line (e.g., "Daily Res"), that line often turns into new Support. Bearish Breakout: If a candle closes below a Support line (e.g., "Daily Sup"), that line often turns into new Resistance. Color Coding: Orange (Daily): Major levels. Expect big reactions here. Purple (4H): Medium trend levels. Good for swing trades. Blue (1H): Minor levels. Good for day trading entries.

Multi-exchange Support Users can choose OI data from Binance, Bybit, or OKX. Any combination is supported. Smooth OI Trendline An optional EMA-based OI line provides a clear view of the underlying trend in trader activity. Delta Bars (optional) Highlights whether Open Interest expanded or contracted within the candle. 🔹 How to Interpret OI Typical relationships between price and OI: Price ↑ + OI ↑ → Trend continuation likely New positions entering the market. Price ↑ + OI ↓ → Short squeeze / weak move Shorts closing, not new longs opening. Price ↓ + OI ↑ → New shorts entering Often signals bearish pressure. Price ↓ + OI ↓ → Longs closing Can indicate capitulation or consolidation. These concepts help traders understand the strength or weakness behind a price move. 🔹 Inputs Choose exchange(s) for OI data Adjust candle opacity Enable/disable OI line Smoothing length for OI line Optional delta bars Range lookback for line offset All settings are customizable to suit different styles of analysis. 🔹 Notes Some assets may not have Open Interest data available on all exchanges. The indicator uses standard TradingView data sources via request.security(). No trading signals are generated; this script is a visualization tool only. 🔹 Author Created by ruben_procrypto for traders who analyze liquidity, Open Interest, and market participation.

VV Moving Average Convergence Divergence # VMACDv3 - Volume-Weighted MACD with A/D Divergence Detection ## Overview **VMACDv3** (Volume-Weighted Moving Average Convergence Divergence Version 3) is a momentum indicator that applies volume-weighting to traditional MACD calculations on price, while using the Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) line for divergence detection. This hybrid approach combines volume-weighted price momentum with volume distribution analysis for comprehensive market insight. ## Key Features - **Volume-Weighted Price MACD**: Traditional MACD calculation on price but weighted by volume for earlier signals - **A/D Divergence Detection**: Identifies when A/D trend diverges from MACD momentum - **Volume Strength Filtering**: Distinguishes high-volume confirmations from low-volume noise - **Color-Coded Histogram**: 4-color system showing momentum direction and volume strength - **Real-Time Alerts**: Background colors and alert conditions for bullish/bearish divergences ## Difference from ACCDv3 | Aspect | VMACDv3 | ACCDv3 | |--------|---------|---------| | **MACD Input** | **Price (Close)** | **A/D Line** | | **Volume Weighting** | Applied to price | Applied to A/D line | | **Primary Signal** | Volume-weighted price momentum | Volume distribution momentum | | **Use Case** | Price momentum with volume confirmation | Volume flow and accumulation/distribution | | **Sensitivity** | More responsive to price changes | More responsive to volume patterns | | **Best For** | Trend following, breakouts | Volume analysis, smart money tracking | **Key Insight**: VMACDv3 shows *where price is going* with volume weight, while ACCDv3 shows *where volume is accumulating/distributing*. ## Components ### 1. Volume-Weighted MACD on Price Unlike standard MACD that uses simple price EMAs, VMACDv3 weights each price by its corresponding volume: ``` Fast Line = EMA(Price × Volume, 12) / EMA(Volume, 12) Slow Line = EMA(Price × Volume, 26) / EMA(Volume, 26) MACD = Fast Line - Slow Line ``` **Benefits of Volume Weighting**: - High-volume price movements have greater impact - Filters out low-volume noise and false moves - Provides earlier trend change signals - Better reflects institutional activity ### 2. Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) Line Used for divergence detection, measuring buying/selling pressure: ``` A/D = Σ ((2 × Close - Low - High) / (High - Low)) × Volume ``` - **Rising A/D**: Accumulation (buying pressure) - **Falling A/D**: Distribution (selling pressure) - **Doji Handling**: When High = Low, contribution is zero ### 3. Signal Lines - **MACD Line** (Blue, #2962FF): The fast-slow difference showing momentum - **Signal Line** (Orange, #FF6D00): EMA or SMA smoothing of MACD - **Zero Line**: Reference for bullish (above) vs bearish (below) bias ### 4. Histogram Color System The histogram uses 4 distinct colors based on **direction** and **volume strength**: | Condition | Color | Meaning | |-----------|-------|---------| | Rising + High Volume | **Dark Green** (#1B5E20) | Strong bullish momentum with volume confirmation | | Rising + Low Volume | **Light Teal** (#26A69A) | Bullish momentum but weak volume (less reliable) | | Falling + High Volume | **Dark Red** (#B71C1C) | Strong bearish momentum with volume confirmation | | Falling + Low Volume | **Light Pink** (#FFCDD2) | Bearish momentum but weak volume (less reliable) | Additional shading: - **Light Cyan** (#B2DFDB): Positive but not rising (momentum stalling) - **Bright Red** (#FF5252): Negative and accelerating down ### 5. Divergence Detection VMACDv3 compares A/D trend against volume-weighted price MACD: #### Bullish Divergence (Green Background) - **Condition**: A/D is trending up BUT MACD is negative and trending down - **Interpretation**: Volume is accumulating while price momentum appears weak - **Signal**: Smart money accumulation, potential bullish reversal - **Action**: Look for long entries, especially at support levels #### Bearish Divergence (Red Background) - **Condition**: A/D is trending down BUT MACD is positive and trending up - **Interpretation**: Volume is distributing while price momentum appears strong - **Signal**: Smart money distribution, potential bearish reversal - **Action**: Consider exits, avoid new longs, watch for breakdown ## Parameters | Parameter | Default | Range | Description | |-----------|---------|-------|-------------| | **Source** | Close | OHLC/HLC3/etc | Price source for MACD calculation | | **Fast Length** | 12 | 1-50 | Period for fast EMA (shorter = more sensitive) | | **Slow Length** | 26 | 1-100 | Period for slow EMA (longer = smoother) | | **Signal Smoothing** | 9 | 1-50 | Period for signal line (MACD smoothing) | | **Signal Line MA Type** | EMA | SMA/EMA | Moving average type for signal calculation | | **Volume MA Length** | 20 | 5-100 | Period for volume average (strength filter) | ## Usage Guide ### Reading the Indicator 1. **MACD Lines (Blue & Orange)** - **Blue Line (MACD)**: Volume-weighted price momentum - **Orange Line (Signal)**: Smoothed trend of MACD - **Crossovers**: Blue crosses above orange = bullish, below = bearish - **Distance**: Wider gap = stronger momentum - **Zero Line Position**: Above = bullish bias, below = bearish bias 2. **Histogram Colors** - **Dark Green (#1B5E20)**: Strong bullish move with high volume - **most reliable buy signal** - **Light Teal (#26A69A)**: Bullish but low volume - wait for confirmation - **Dark Red (#B71C1C)**: Strong bearish move with high volume - **most reliable sell signal** - **Light Pink (#FFCDD2)**: Bearish but low volume - may be temporary dip 3. **Background Divergence Alerts** - **Green Background**: A/D accumulating while price weak - potential bottom - **Red Background**: A/D distributing while price strong - potential top - Most powerful at key support/resistance levels ### Trading Strategies #### Strategy 1: Volume-Confirmed Trend Following 1. Wait for MACD to cross above zero line 2. Look for **dark green** histogram bars (high volume confirmation) 3. Enter long on second consecutive dark green bar 4. Hold while histogram remains green 5. Exit when histogram turns light green or red appears 6. Set stop below recent swing low **Example**: ``` Price: 26,400 → 26,450 (rising) MACD: -50 → +20 (crosses zero) Histogram: Light teal → Dark green → Dark green Volume: 50k → 75k → 90k (increasing) ``` #### Strategy 2: Divergence Reversal Trading 1. Identify divergence background (green = bullish, red = bearish) 2. Confirm with price structure (support/resistance, chart patterns) 3. Wait for MACD to cross signal line in divergence direction 4. Enter on first **dark colored** histogram bar after divergence 5. Set stop beyond divergence area 6. Target previous swing high/low **Example - Bullish Divergence**: ``` Price: Making lower lows (26,350 → 26,300 → 26,250) A/D: Rising (accumulation) MACD: Below zero but starting to curve up Background: Green shading appears Entry: MACD crosses signal line + dark green bar Stop: Below 26,230 Target: 26,450 (previous high) ``` #### Strategy 3: Momentum Scalping 1. Trade only in direction of MACD zero line (above = long, below = short) 2. Enter on dark colored bars only 3. Exit on first light colored bar or opposite color 4. Quick in and out (1-5 minute holds) 5. Tight stops (0.2-0.5% depending on instrument) #### Strategy 4: Histogram Pattern Trading **V-Bottom Reversal (Bullish)**: - Red histogram bars start rising (becoming less negative) - Forms "V" shape at the bottom - Transitions to light red → light teal → **dark green** - Entry: First dark green bar - Signal: Momentum reversal with volume **Λ-Top Reversal (Bearish)**: - Green histogram bars start falling (becoming less positive) - Forms inverted "V" at the top - Transitions to light green → light pink → **dark red** - Entry: First dark red bar - Signal: Momentum exhaustion with volume ### Multi-Timeframe Analysis **Recommended Approach**: 1. **Higher Timeframe (15m/1h)**: Identify overall trend direction 2. **Trading Timeframe (5m)**: Time entries using VMACDv3 signals 3. **Lower Timeframe (1m)**: Fine-tune entry prices **Example Setup**: ``` 15-minute: MACD above zero (bullish bias) 5-minute: Dark green histogram appears after pullback 1-minute: Enter on break of recent high with volume ``` ### Volume Strength Interpretation The volume filter compares current volume to 20-period average: - **Volume > Average**: Dark colors (green/red) - high confidence signals - **Volume < Average**: Light colors (teal/pink) - lower confidence signals **Trading Rules**: - ✓ **Aggressive**: Take all dark colored signals - ✓ **Conservative**: Only take dark colors that follow 2+ light colors of same type - ✗ **Avoid**: Trading light colored signals during high volatility - ✗ **Avoid**: Ignoring volume context during news events ## Technical Details ### Volume-Weighted Calculation ```pine // Volume-weighted fast EMA fast_ma = ta.ema(src * volume, fast_length) / ta.ema(volume, fast_length) // Volume-weighted slow EMA slow_ma = ta.ema(src * volume, slow_length) / ta.ema(volume, slow_length) // MACD is the difference macd = fast_ma - slow_ma // Signal line smoothing signal = ta.ema(macd, signal_length) // or ta.sma() if SMA selected // Histogram hist = macd - signal ``` ### Divergence Detection Logic ```pine // A/D trending up if above its 5-period SMA ad_trend = ad > ta.sma(ad, 5) // MACD trending up if above zero macd_trend = macd > 0 // Divergence when trends oppose each other divergence = ad_trend != macd_trend // Specific conditions for alerts bullish_divergence = ad_trend and not macd_trend and macd < 0 bearish_divergence = not ad_trend and macd_trend and macd > 0 ``` ### Histogram Coloring Logic ```pine hist_color = (hist >= 0 ? (hist < hist ? (vol_strength ? #1B5E20 : #26A69A) // Rising: dark/light green : #B2DFDB) // Positive but falling: cyan : (hist < hist ? (vol_strength ? #B71C1C : #FFCDD2) // Rising (less negative): dark/light red : #FF5252)) // Falling more: bright red ``` ## Alerts Built-in alert conditions for divergence detection: ### Bullish Divergence Alert - **Trigger**: A/D trending up, MACD negative and trending down - **Message**: "Bullish Divergence: A/D trending up but MACD trending down" - **Use Case**: Potential reversal or continuation after pullback - **Action**: Look for long entry setups ### Bearish Divergence Alert - **Trigger**: A/D trending down, MACD positive and trending up - **Message**: "Bearish Divergence: A/D trending down but MACD trending up" - **Use Case**: Potential top or trend reversal - **Action**: Consider exits or short entries ### Setting Up Alerts 1.
