PRO Investing - Apex EnginePRO Investing - Apex Engine
1. Core Concept: Why Does This Indicator Exist?
Traditional momentum oscillators like RSI or Stochastic use a fixed "lookback period" (e.g., 14). This creates a fundamental problem: a 14-period setting that works well in a fast, trending market will generate constant false signals in a slow, choppy market, and vice-versa. The market's character is dynamic, but most tools are static.
The Apex Engine was built to solve this problem. Its primary innovation is a self-optimizing core that continuously adapts to changing market conditions. Instead of relying on one fixed setting, it actively tests three different momentum profiles (Fast, Mid, and Slow) in real-time and selects the one that is most synchronized with the current price action.
This is not just a random combination of indicators; it's a deliberate synthesis designed to create a more robust momentum tool. It combines:
Volatility analysis (ATR) to generate adaptive lookback periods.
Momentum measurement (ROC) to gauge the speed of price changes.
Statistical analysis (Correlation) to validate which momentum measurement is most effective right now.
Classic trend filters (Moving Average, ADX) to ensure signals are only taken in favorable market conditions.
The result is an oscillator that aims to be more responsive in volatile trends and more stable in quiet periods, providing a more intelligent and adaptive signal.
2. How It Works: The Engine's Three-Stage Process
To be transparent, it's important to understand the step-by-step logic the indicator follows on every bar. It's a process of Adapt -> Validate -> Signal.
Stage 1: Adapt (Dynamic Length Calculation)
The engine first measures market volatility using the Average True Range (ATR) relative to its own long-term average. This creates a volatility_factor. In high-volatility environments, this factor causes the base calculation lengths to shorten. In low-volatility, they lengthen. This produces three potential Rate of Change (ROC) lengths: dynamic_fast_len, dynamic_mid_len, and dynamic_slow_len.
Stage 2: Validate (Self-Optimizing Mode Selection)
This is the core of the engine. It calculates the ROC for all three dynamic lengths. To determine which is best, it uses the ta.correlation() function to measure how well each ROC's movement has correlated with the actual bar-to-bar price changes over the "Optimization Lookback" period. The ROC length with the highest correlation score is chosen as the most effective profile for the current moment. This "active" mode is reflected in the oscillator's color and the dashboard.
Stage 3: Signal (Normalized Velocity Oscillator)
The winning ROC series is then normalized into a consistent oscillator (the Velocity line) that ranges from -100 (extreme oversold) to +100 (extreme overbought). This ensures signals are comparable across any asset or timeframe. Signals are only generated when this Velocity line crosses its signal line and the trend filters (explained below) give a green light.
3. How to Use the Indicator: A Practical Guide
Reading the Visuals:
Velocity Line (Blue/Yellow/Pink): The main oscillator line. Its color indicates which mode is active (Fast, Mid, or Slow).
Signal Line (White): A moving average of the Velocity line. Crossovers generate potential signals.
Buy/Sell Triangles (▲ / ▼): These are your primary entry signals. They are intentionally strict and only appear when momentum, trend, and price action align.
Background Color (Green/Red/Gray): This is your trend context.
Green: Bullish trend confirmed (e.g., price above a rising 200 EMA and ADX > 20). Only Buy signals (▲) can appear.
Red: Bearish trend confirmed. Only Sell signals (▼) can appear.
Gray: No clear trend. The market is likely choppy or consolidating. No signals will appear; it is best to stay out.
Trading Strategy Example:
Wait for a colored background. A green or red background indicates the market is in a tradable trend.
Look for a signal. For a green background, wait for a lime Buy triangle (▲) to appear.
Confirm the trade. Before entering, confirm the signal aligns with your own analysis (e.g., support/resistance levels, chart patterns).
Manage the trade. Set a stop-loss according to your risk management rules. An exit can be considered on a fixed target, a trailing stop, or when an opposing signal appears.
4. Settings and Customization
This script is open-source, and its settings are transparent. You are encouraged to understand them.
Synaptic Engine Group:
Volatility Period: The master control for the adaptive engine. Higher values are slower and more stable.
Optimization Lookback: How many bars to use for the correlation check.
Switch Sensitivity: A buffer to prevent frantic switching between modes.
Advanced Configuration & Filters Group:
Price Source: The data source for momentum calculation (default close).
Trend Filter MA Type & Length: Define your long-term trend.
Filter by MA Slope: A key feature. If ON, allows for "buy the dip" entries below a rising MA. If OFF, it's stricter, requiring price to be above the MA.
ADX Length & Threshold: Filters out non-trending, choppy markets. Signals will not fire if the ADX is below this threshold.
5. Important Disclaimer
This indicator is a decision-support tool for discretionary traders, not an automated trading system or financial advice. Past performance is not indicative of future results. All trading involves substantial risk. You should always use proper risk management, including setting stop-losses, and never risk more than you are prepared to lose. The signals generated by this script should be used as one component of a broader trading plan.

Pro Cumulative Volume RSI# Pro Cumulative Volume RSI - Professional Trading Indicator
## 📊 What is it?
The **Pro Cumulative Volume RSI** is an advanced momentum oscillator that analyzes buying and selling pressure through volume distribution. Unlike traditional RSI that only tracks price movements, this indicator separates volume into buying and selling components, providing two distinct RSI calculations that reveal market dynamics from both perspectives.
## 🔍 How Does It Work?
### Volume Distribution Algorithm
The indicator uses a sophisticated volume distribution method:
**Buying Volume (BV)** = Volume × (Close - Low) / (High - Low)
**Selling Volume (SV)** = Volume × (High - Close) / (High - Low)
This formula proportionally allocates volume based on where the candle closes within its range:
- If close is near the high → More buying volume
- If close is near the low → More selling volume
### Dual RSI Calculation
The indicator then calculates **two separate RSI values**:
1. **Green Line (Buying Volume RSI)**: Measures the dominance of buying pressure
2. **Red Line (Selling Volume RSI)**: Measures the dominance of selling pressure
Each RSI follows the traditional 14-period calculation but applies it to the volume pressure differences rather than price changes.
## 🎯 How to Use It
### Signal Interpretation
| Scenario | Meaning | Action |
|----------|---------|--------|
| Green > 70, Red < 30 | Strong buying dominance | Consider buying / Hold long |
| Red > 70, Green < 30 | Strong selling dominance | Consider selling / Avoid longs |
| Green crosses above Red | Momentum shift to buyers | Potential buy signal |
| Red crosses above Green | Momentum shift to sellers | Potential sell signal |
| Both near 50 | Balanced market | Wait for confirmation |
### Key Features
**1. Crossover Signals**
- **BUY signal**: When green line crosses above red line with sufficient momentum
- **SELL signal**: When red line crosses above green line with sufficient momentum
- Triangle markers appear automatically on the chart
**2. Divergence Detection**
- **Bullish Divergence (DIV+)**: Price makes lower lows but indicator makes higher lows → Potential reversal up
- **Bearish Divergence (DIV-)**: Price makes higher highs but indicator makes lower highs → Potential reversal down
- Yellow/orange circles mark divergences automatically
**3. Background Coloring**
- **Green background**: Buying pressure dominates
- **Red background**: Selling pressure dominates
- Intensity shows strength of pressure
**4. Live Status Table**
- Real-time RSI values for both buying and selling
- Current momentum status
- Market pressure assessment
- Last detected signal
### Settings Customization
**Basic Settings:**
- **RSI Period**: Default 14, adjust based on your trading timeframe (shorter = more sensitive)
**Visual Settings:**
- **Histogram Mode**: Toggle between line and histogram display
- **Background Coloring**: Enable/disable pressure-based background
- **Transparency**: Adjust background opacity
**Signal Settings:**
- **Crossover Signals**: Show/hide BUY/SELL markers
- **Divergence Detection**: Enable automatic divergence spotting
- **Sensitivity**: Low/Medium/High - controls how strong momentum must be for signals
**Level Lines:**
- **Overbought/Oversold**: Adjust threshold levels (default 70/30)
## ⚠️ IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER
### This Indicator Should NOT Be Used Alone
**ALWAYS combine this indicator with other forms of analysis:**
✅ **Price Action Analysis**
- Support and resistance levels
- Trend lines and chart patterns
- Candlestick formations
✅ **Other Technical Indicators**
- Moving Averages (trend confirmation)
- MACD (momentum confirmation)
- Volume Profile (context)
- ATR (volatility assessment)
- Bollinger Bands (volatility and extremes)
✅ **Multiple Timeframe Analysis**
- Check higher timeframes for overall trend
- Use lower timeframes for precise entries
- Ensure signals align across timeframes
✅ **Fundamental Analysis**
- News and economic events
- Earnings reports (for stocks)
- Market sentiment
- Macro conditions
✅ **Risk Management**
- **NEVER** risk more than 1-2% per trade
- Always use stop losses
- Calculate position size before entering
- Have a clear exit strategy
### Common Pitfalls to Avoid
❌ **Don't** take every signal blindly
❌ **Don't** ignore the overall market trend
❌ **Don't** trade against strong momentum without confirmation
❌ **Don't** forget about major support/resistance levels
❌ **Don't** over-leverage based on indicator signals
❌ **Don't** ignore fundamental catalysts
### Best Practices
✅ **Wait for confluence**: Multiple indicators agreeing
✅ **Consider market context**: Bull/bear market conditions
✅ **Use appropriate timeframes**: Match your trading style
✅ **Backtest first**: Test on historical data before live trading
✅ **Keep a trading journal**: Track what works and what doesn't
✅ **Respect your risk management rules**: Always
## 📈 Example Trading Scenarios
### Scenario 1: Strong Trend Following
- **Setup**: Green RSI consistently above 50, price in uptrend
- **Confirmation**: Higher timeframe trend is up, price above major MA
- **Entry**: BUY signal on pullback when green crosses red
- **Stop Loss**: Below recent swing low
- **Exit**: When red RSI crosses above green or divergence appears
### Scenario 2: Reversal Trading
- **Setup**: Bullish divergence (DIV+) appears at support level
- **Confirmation**: Price shows bullish candlestick pattern, other oscillators oversold
- **Entry**: After confirmation candle closes
- **Stop Loss**: Below divergence low
- **Exit**: At resistance or when momentum weakens
### Scenario 3: Avoiding False Signals
- **Signal**: BUY signal appears
- **Check**: Price is at strong resistance, higher timeframe shows downtrend
- **Action**: **SKIP the trade** - context overrides signal
- **Result**: Protected capital by avoiding low-probability setup

Pro Rata Volume (PRV)Pro Rata Volume (PRV): pro rata volume is a volume indicator that extrapolates the volume of the current bar to the time span of the bar of a time-based chart.
Delta Volume Columns Pro [LucF]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator displays volume delta information calculated with intrabar inspection on historical bars, and feed updates when running in realtime. It is designed to run in a pane and can display either stacked buy/sell volume columns or a signal line which can be calculated and displayed in many different ways.
Five different models are offered to reveal different characteristics of the calculated volume delta information. Many options are offered to visualize the calculations, giving you much leeway in morphing the indicator's visuals to suit your needs. If you value delta volume information, I hope you will find the time required to master Delta Volume Columns Pro well worth the investment. I am confident that if you combine a proper understanding of the indicator's information with an intimate knowledge of the volume idiosyncrasies on the markets you trade, you can extract useful market intelligence using this tool.
█ WARNINGS
1. The indicator only works on markets where volume information is available,
Please validate that your symbol's feed carries volume information before asking me why the indicator doesn't plot values.
2. When you refresh your chart or re-execute the script on the chart, the indicator will repaint because elapsed realtime bars will then recalculate as historical bars.
3. Because the indicator uses different modes of calculation on historical and realtime bars, it's critical that you understand the differences between them. Details are provided further down.
4. Calculations using intrabar inspection on historical bars can only be done from some chart timeframes. See further down for a list of supported timeframes.
If the chart's timeframe is not supported, no historical volume delta will display.
█ CONCEPTS
Chart bars
Three different types of bars are used in charts:
1. Historical bars are bars that have already closed when the script executes on them.
2. The realtime bar is the current, incomplete bar where a script is running on an open market. There is only one active realtime bar on your chart at any given time.
The realtime bar is where alerts trigger.
3. Elapsed realtime bars are bars that were calculated when they were realtime bars but have since closed.
When a script re-executes on a chart because the browser tab is refreshed or some of its inputs are changed, elapsed realtime bars are recalculated as historical bars.
Why does this indicator use two modes of calculation?
Historical bars on TradingView charts contain OHLCV data only, which is insufficient to calculate volume delta on them with any level of precision. To mine more detailed information from those bars we look at intrabars , i.e., bars from a smaller timeframe (we call it the intrabar timeframe ) that are contained in one chart bar. If your chart Is running at 1D on a 24x7 market for example, most 1D chart bars will contain 24 underlying 1H bars in their dilation. On historical bars, this indicator looks at those intrabars to amass volume delta information. If the intrabar is up, its volume goes in the Buy bin, and inversely for the Sell bin. When price does not move on an intrabar, the polarity of the last known movement is used to determine in which bin its volume goes.
In realtime, we have access to price and volume change for each update of the chart. Because a 1D chart bar can be updated tens of thousands of times during the day, volume delta calculations on those updates is much more precise. This precision, however, comes at a price:
— The script must be running on the chart for it to keep calculating in realtime.
— If you refresh your chart you will lose all accumulated realtime calculations on elapsed realtime bars, and the realtime bar.
Elapsed realtime bars will recalculate as historical bars, i.e., using intrabar inspection, and the realtime bar's calculations will reset.
When the script recalculates elapsed realtime bars as historical bars, the values on those bars will change, which means the script repaints in those conditions.
— When the indicator first calculates on a chart containing an incomplete realtime bar, it will count ALL the existing volume on the bar as Buy or Sell volume,
depending on the polarity of the bar at that point. This will skew calculations for that first bar. Scripts have no access to the history of a realtime bar's previous updates,
and intrabar inspection cannot be used on realtime bars, so this is the only to go about this.
— Even if alerts only trigger upon confirmation of their conditions after the realtime bar closes, they are repainting alerts
because they would perhaps not have calculated the same way using intrabar inspection.
— On markets like stocks that often have different EOD and intraday feeds and volume information,
the volume's scale may not be the same for the realtime bar if your chart is at 1D, for example,
and the indicator is using an intraday timeframe to calculate on historical bars.
— Any chart timeframe can be used in realtime mode, but plots that include moving averages in their calculations may require many elapsed realtime bars before they can calculate.
You might prefer drastically reducing the periods of the moving averages, or using the volume columns mode, which displays instant values, instead of the line.
Volume Delta Balances
This indicator uses a variety of methods to evaluate five volume delta balances and derive other values from those balances. The five balances are:
1 — On Bar Balance : This is the only balance using instant values; it is simply the subtraction of the Sell volume from the Buy volume on the bar.
2 — Average Balance : Calculates a distinct EMA for both the Buy and Sell volumes, and subtracts the Sell EMA from the Buy EMA.
3 — Momentum Balance : Starts by calculating, separately for both Buy and Sell volumes, the difference between the same EMAs used in "Average Balance" and
an SMA of double the period used for the "Average Balance" EMAs. The difference for the Sell side is subtracted from the difference for the Buy side,
and an RSI of that value is calculated and brought over the −50/+50 scale.
4 — Relative Balance : The reference values used in the calculation are the Buy and Sell EMAs used in the "Average Balance".
From those, we calculate two intermediate values using how much the instant Buy and Sell volumes on the bar exceed their respective EMA — but with a twist.
If the bar's Buy volume does not exceed the EMA of Buy volume, a zero value is used. The same goes for the Sell volume with the EMA of Sell volume.
Once we have our two intermediate values for the Buy and Sell volumes exceeding their respective MA, we subtract them. The final "Relative Balance" value is an ALMA of that subtraction.
The rationale behind using zero values when the bar's Buy/Sell volume does not exceed its EMA is to only take into account the more significant volume.
If both instant volume values exceed their MA, then the difference between the two is the signal's value.
The signal is called "relative" because the intermediate values are the difference between the instant Buy/Sell volumes and their respective MA.
This balance flatlines when the bar's Buy/Sell volumes do not exceed their EMAs, which makes it useful to spot areas where trader interest dwindles, such as consolidations.
The smaller the period of the final value's ALMA, the more easily you will see the balance flatline. These flat zones should be considered no-trade zones.
5 — Percent Balance : This balance is the ALMA of the ratio of the "On Bar Balance" value, i.e., the volume delta balance on the bar (which can be positive or negative),
over the total volume for that bar.
From the balances and marker conditions, two more values are calculated:
1 — Marker Bias : It sums the up/down (+1/‒1) occurrences of the markers 1 to 4 over a period you define, so it ranges from −4 to +4, times the period.
Its calculation will depend on the modes used to calculate markers 3 and 4.
2 — Combined Balances : This is the sum of the bull/bear (+1/−1) states of each of the five balances, so it ranges from −5 to +5.
█ FEATURES
The indicator has two main modes of operation: Columns and Line .
Columns
• In Columns mode you can display stacked Buy/Sell volume columns.
• The buy section always appears above the centerline, the sell section below.
• The top and bottom sections can be colored independently using eight different methods.
• The EMAs of the Buy/Sell values can be displayed (these are the same EMAs used to calculate the "Average Balance").
Line
• Displays one of seven signals: the five balances or one of two complementary values, i.e., the "Marker Bias" or the "Combined Balances".
• You can color the line and its fill using independent calculation modes to pack more information in the display.
You can thus appraise the state of 3 different values using the line itself, its color and the color of its fill.
• A "Divergence Levels" feature will use the line to automatically draw expanding levels on divergence events.
Default settings
Using the indicator's default settings, this is the information displayed:
• The line is calculated on the "Average Balance".
• The line's color is determined by the bull/bear state of the "Percent Balance".
• The line's fill gradient is determined by the advances/declines of the "Momentum Balance".
• The orange divergence dots are calculated using discrepancies between the polarity of the "On Bar Balance" and the chart's bar.
• The divergence levels are determined using the line's level when a divergence occurs.
• The background's fill gradient is calculated on advances/declines of the "Marker Bias".
• The chart bars are colored using advances/declines of the "Relative Balance". Divergences are shown in orange.
• The intrabar timeframe is automatically determined from the chart's timeframe so that a minimum of 50 intrabars are used to calculate volume delta on historical bars.
Alerts
The configuration of the marker conditions explained further is what determines the conditions that will trigger alerts created from this script. Note that simply selecting the display of markers does not create alerts. To create an alert on this script, you must use ALT-A from the chart. You can create multiple alerts triggering on different conditions from this same script; simply configure the markers so they define the trigger conditions for each alert before creating the alert. The configuration of the script's inputs is saved with the alert, so from then on you can change them without affecting the alert. Alert messages will mention the marker(s) that triggered the specific alert event. Keep in mind, when creating alerts on small chart timeframes, that discrepancies between alert triggers and markers displayed on your chart are to be expected. This is because the alert and your chart are running two distinct instances of the indicator on different servers and different feeds. Also keep in mind that while alerts only trigger on confirmed conditions, they are calculated using realtime calculation mode, which entails that if you refresh your chart and elapsed realtime bars recalculate as historical bars using intrabar inspection, markers will not appear in the same places they appeared in realtime. So it's important to understand that even though the alert conditions are confirmed when they trigger, these alerts will repaint.
Let's go through the sections of the script's inputs.
Columns
The size of the Buy/Sell columns always represents their respective importance on the bar, but the coloring mode for tops and bottoms is independent. The default setup uses a standard coloring mode where the Buy/Sell columns are always in the bull/bear color with a higher intensity for the winning side. Seven other coloring modes allow you to pack more information in the columns. When choosing to color the top columns using a bull/bear gradient on "Average Balance", for example, you will have bull/bear colored tops. In order for the color of the bottom columns to continue to show the instant bar balance, you can then choose the "On Bar Balance — Dual Solid Colors" coloring mode to make those bars the color of the winning side for that bar. You can display the averages of the Buy and Sell columns. If you do, its coloring is controlled through the "Line" and "Line fill" sections below.
Line and Line fill
You can select the calculation mode and the thickness of the line, and independent calculations to determine the line's color and fill.
Zero Line
The zero line can display dots when all five balances are bull/bear.
Divergences
You first select the detection mode. Divergences occur whenever the up/down direction of the signal does not match the up/down polarity of the bar. Divergences are used in three components of the indicator's visuals: the orange dot, colored chart bars, and to calculate the divergence levels on the line. The divergence levels are dynamic levels that automatically build from the line's values on divergence events. On consecutive divergences, the levels will expand, creating a channel. This implementation of the divergence levels corresponds to my view that divergences indicate anomalies, hesitations, points of uncertainty if you will. It precludes any attempt to identify a directional bias to divergences. Accordingly, the levels merely take note of divergence events and mark those points in time with levels. Traders then have a reference point from which they can evaluate further movement. The bull/bear/neutral colors used to plot the levels are also congruent with this view in that they are determined by the line's position relative to the levels, which is how I think divergences can be put to the most effective use. One of the coloring modes for the line's fill uses advances/declines in the line after divergence events.
Background
The background can show a bull/bear gradient on six different calculations. As with other gradients, you can adjust its brightness to make its importance proportional to how you use it in your analysis.
Chart bars
Chart bars can be colored using seven different methods. You have the option of emptying the body of bars where volume does not increase, as does my TLD indicator, and you can choose whether you want to show divergences.
Intrabar Timeframe
This is the intrabar timeframe that will be used to calculate volume delta using intrabar inspection on historical bars. You can choose between four modes. The three "Auto-steps" modes calculate, from the chart's timeframe, the intrabar timeframe where the said number of intrabars will make up the dilation of chart bars. Adjustments are made for non-24x7 markets. "Fixed" mode allows you to select the intrabar timeframe you want. Checking the "Show TF" box will display in the lower-right corner the intrabar timeframe used at any given moment. The proper selection of the intrabar timeframe is important. It must achieve maximal granularity to produce precise results while not unduly slowing down calculations, or worse, causing runtime errors. Note that historical depth will vary with the intrabar timeframe. The smaller the timeframe, the shallower historical plots you will be.
Markers
Markers appear when the required condition has been confirmed on a closed bar. The configuration of the markers when you create an alert is what determines when the alert will trigger. Five markers are available:
• Balances Agreement : All five balances are either bullish or bearish.
• Double Bumps : A double bump is two consecutive up/down bars with +/‒ volume delta, and rising Buy/Sell volume above its average.
• Divergence confirmations : A divergence is confirmed up/down when the chosen balance is up/down on the previous bar when that bar was down/up, and this bar is up/down.
• Balance Shifts : These are bull/bear transitions of the selected signal.
• Marker Bias Shifts : Marker bias shifts occur when it crosses into bull/bear territory.
Periods
Allows control over the periods of the different moving averages used to calculate the balances.
Volume Discrepancies
Stock exchanges do not report the same volume for intraday and daily (or higher) resolutions. Other variations in how volume information is reported can also occur in other markets, namely Forex, where volume irregularities can even occur between different intraday timeframes. This will cause discrepancies between the total volume on the bar at the chart's timeframe, and the total volume calculated by adding the volume of the intrabars in that bar's dilation. This does not necessarily invalidate the volume delta information calculated from intrabars, but it tells us that we are using partial volume data. A mechanism to detect chart vs intrabar timeframe volume discrepancies is provided. It allows you to define a threshold percentage above which the background will indicate a difference has been detected.
Other Settings
You can control here the display of the gray dot reminder on realtime bars, and the display of error messages if you are using a chart timeframe that is not greater than the fixed intrabar timeframe, when you use that mode. Disabling the message can be useful if you only use realtime mode at chart timeframes that do not support intrabar inspection.
█ RAMBLINGS
On Volume Delta
Volume is arguably the best complement to interpret price action, and I consider volume delta to be the most effective way of processing volume information. In periods of low-volatility price consolidations, volume will typically also be lower than normal, but slight imbalances in the trend of the buy/sell volume balance can sometimes help put early odds on the direction of the break from consolidation. Additionally, the progression of the volume imbalance can help determine the proximity of the breakout. I also find volume delta and the number of divergences very useful to evaluate the strength of trends. In trends, I am looking for "slow and steady", i.e., relatively low volatility and pauses where price action doesn't look like world affairs are being reassessed. In my personal mythology, this type of trend is often more resilient than high-volatility breakouts, especially when volume balance confirms the general agreement of traders signaled by the low-volatility usually accompanying this type of trend. The volume action on pauses will often help me decide between aggressively taking profits, tightening a stop or going for a longer-term movement. As for reversals, they generally occur in high-volatility areas where entering trades is more expensive and riskier. While the identification of counter-trend reversals fascinates many traders to no end, they represent poor opportunities in my view. Volume imbalances often precede reversals, but I prefer to use volume delta information to identify the areas following reversals where I can confirm them and make relatively low-cost entries with better odds.
On "Buy/Sell" Volume
Buying or selling volume are misnomers, as every unit of volume transacted is both bought and sold by two different traders. While this does not keep me from using the terms, there is no such thing as “buy only” or “sell only” volume. Trader lingo is riddled with peculiarities.
Divergences
The divergence detection method used here relies on a difference between the direction of a signal and the polarity (up/down) of a chart bar. When using the default "On Bar Balance" to detect divergences, however, only the bar's volume delta is used. You may wonder how there can be divergences between buying/selling volume information and price movement on one bar. This will sometimes be due to the calculation's shortcomings, but divergences may also occur in instances where because of order book structure, it takes less volume to increase the price of an asset than it takes to decrease it. As usual, divergences are points of interest because they reveal imbalances, which may or may not become turning points. To your pattern-hungry brain, the divergences displayed by this indicator will — as they do on other indicators — appear to often indicate turnarounds. My opinion is that reality is generally quite sobering and I have no reliable information that would tend to prove otherwise. Exercise caution when using them. Consequently, I do not share the overwhelming enthusiasm of traders in identifying bullish/bearish divergences. For me, the best course of action when a divergence occurs is to wait and see what happens from there. That is the rationale underlying how my divergence levels work; they take note of a signal's level when a divergence occurs, and it's the signal's behavior from that point on that determines if the post-divergence action is bullish/bearish.
Superfluity
In "The Bed of Procrustes", Nassim Nicholas Taleb writes: To bankrupt a fool, give him information . This indicator can display lots of information. While learning to use a new indicator inevitably requires an adaptation period where we put it through its paces and try out all its options, once you have become used to it and decide to adopt it, rigorously eliminate the components you don't use and configure the remaining ones so their visual prominence reflects their relative importance in your analysis. I tried to provide flexible options for traders to control this indicator's visuals for that exact reason — not for window dressing.
█ LIMITATIONS
• This script uses a special characteristic of the `security()` function allowing the inspection of intrabars — which is not officially supported by TradingView.
It has the advantage of permitting a more robust calculation of volume delta than other methods on historical bars, but also has its limits.
• Intrabar inspection only works on some chart timeframes: 3, 5, 10, 15 and 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12 hours, 1 day, 1 week and 1 month.
The script’s code can be modified to run on other resolutions.
• When the difference between the chart’s timeframe and the intrabar timeframe is too great, runtime errors will occur. The Auto-Steps selection mechanisms should avoid this.
• All volume is not created equally. Its source, components, quality and reliability will vary considerably with sectors and instruments.
The higher the quality, the more reliably volume delta information can be used to guide your decisions.
You should make it your responsibility to understand the volume information provided in the data feeds you use. It will help you make the most of volume delta.
█ NOTES
For traders
• The Data Window shows key values for the indicator.
• While this indicator displays some of the same information calculated in my Delta Volume Columns ,
I have elected to make it a separate publication so that traders continue to have a simpler alternative available to them. Both code bases will continue to evolve separately.
• All gradients used in this indicator determine their brightness intensities using advances/declines in the signal—not their relative position in a pre-determined scale.
• Volume delta being relative, by nature, it is particularly well-suited to Forex markets, as it filters out quite elegantly the cyclical volume data characterizing the sector.
If you are interested in volume delta, consider having a look at my other "Delta Volume" indicators:
• Delta Volume Realtime Action displays realtime volume delta and tick information on the chart.
• Delta Volume Candles builds volume delta candles on the chart.
• Delta Volume Columns is a simpler version of this indicator.
For coders
• I use the `f_c_gradientRelativePro()` from the PineCoders Color Gradient Framework to build my gradients.
This function has the advantage of allowing begin/end colors for both the bull and bear colors. It also allows us to define the number of steps allowed for each gradient.
I use this to modulate the gradients so they perform optimally on the combination of the signal used to calculate advances/declines,
but also the nature of the visual component the gradient applies to. I use fewer steps for choppy signals and when the gradient is used on discrete visual components
such as volume columns or chart bars.
• I use the PineCoders Coding Conventions for Pine to write my scripts.
• I used functions modified from the PineCoders MTF Selection Framework for the selection of timeframes.

Pro Bollinger Bands CalculatorThe "Pro Bollinger Bands Calculator" indicator joins our suite of custom trading tools, which includes the "Pro Supertrend Calculator", the "Pro RSI Calculator" and the "Pro Momentum Calculator."
Expanding on this series, the "Pro Bollinger Bands Calculator" is tailored to offer traders deeper insights into market dynamics by harnessing the power of the Bollinger Bands indicator.
Its core mission remains unchanged: to scrutinize historical price data and provide informed predictions about future price movements, with a specific focus on detecting potential bullish (green) or bearish (red) candlestick patterns.
1. Bollinger Bands Calculation:
The indicator kicks off by computing the Bollinger Bands, a well-known volatility indicator. It calculates two pivotal Bollinger Bands parameters:
- Bollinger Bands Length: This parameter sets the lookback period for Bollinger Bands calculations.
- Bollinger Bands Deviation: It determines the deviation multiplier for the upper and lower bands, typically set at 2.0.
2. Visualizing Bollinger Bands:
The Bollinger Bands derived from the calculations are skillfully plotted on the price chart:
- Red Line: Represents the upper Bollinger Band during bearish trends, suggesting potential price declines.
- Teal Line: Represents the lower Bollinger Band in bullish market conditions, signaling the possibility of price increases.
3.Analyzing Consecutive Candlesticks:
The indicator's core functionality revolves around tracking consecutive candlestick patterns based on their relationship with the Bollinger Bands lines. To be considered for analysis, a candlestick must consistently close either above (green candles) or below (red candles) the Bollinger Bands lines for multiple consecutive periods.
4. Labeling and Enumeration:
To convey the count of consecutive candles displaying consistent trend behavior, the indicator meticulously assigns labels to the price chart. The position of these labels varies depending on the direction of the trend, appearing either below (for bullish patterns) or above (for bearish patterns) the candlesticks. The label colors match the candle colors: green labels for bullish candles and red labels for bearish ones.
5. Tabular Data Presentation:
The indicator complements its graphical analysis with a customizable table that prominently displays comprehensive statistical insights. Key data points within the table encompass:
- Consecutive Candles: The count of consecutive candles displaying consistent trend characteristics.
- Candles Above Upper BB: The number of candles closing above the upper Bollinger Band during the consecutive period.
- Candles Below Lower BB: The number of candles closing below the lower Bollinger Band during the consecutive period.
- Upcoming Green Candle: An estimated probability of the next candlestick being bullish, derived from historical data.
- Upcoming Red Candle: An estimated probability of the next candlestick being bearish, also based on historical data.
6. Custom Configuration:
To cater to diverse trading strategies and preferences, the indicator offers extensive customization options. Traders can fine-tune parameters such as Bollinger Bands length, upper and lower band deviations, label and table placement, and table size to align with their unique trading approaches.
PRO Scalper(EN)
## What it is
**PRO Scalper** is an intraday price–action and liquidity map that helps you see where the market is likely to move **now**, not just where it has been.
It combines five building blocks that professional scalpers often watch together:
1. **Session Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP)** — the intraday “fair value” anchor.
2. **Opening Range** — the first minutes of the session that set the day’s balance.
3. **Trend filter** — higher-timeframe bias using **Exponential Moving Averages (EMA)** and optional **Average Directional Index (ADX)** strength.
4. **Two independent Supply/Demand zone engines** — zones are drawn from confirmed swing pivots, with midlines and **touch counters**.
5. **Order-flow style visuals**:
* **Delta bubbles** (green/red circles) show where buying or selling pressure was unusually strong, using a safe **delta proxy** (no external feeds).
* **Liquidity densities** (subtle rectangular bands) highlight clusters of large activity that often act as magnets or barriers and disappear when “eaten” by strong moves.
This mix gives you a **complete intraday picture**: the mean (VWAP), the day’s initial balance (Opening Range), the higher-timeframe push (trend filter), the nearby fuel or brakes (zones), and the live pressure points (bubbles and densities).
---
## Why these components
* **VWAP** tracks where the bulk of traded value sits. Price tends to rotate around it or accelerate away from it — a perfect compass for scalps.
* **Opening Range** frames the early auction. Many intraday breaks, fades and retests start at its boundaries.
* **EMA bias + ADX strength** separates trending conditions from chop, so you can keep only the zones that agree with the bigger push.
* **Pivot-based zones (two pairs at once)** are simple, objective and fast. Midlines help with confirmations; touch counters quantify how many times the zone was tested.
* **Bubbles and densities** add the “effort” layer: where the push appeared and where liquidity is concentrated. You see **where** a move is likely to continue or fail.
Together they reduce ambiguity: **context + level + effort** — all on one screen.
---
## How it works (plain language)
* **VWAP** resets each day and is calculated as the cumulative sum of typical price multiplied by volume divided by total volume.
* **Opening Range** is either automatic (a multiple of your chart timeframe) or a manual number of minutes. While it is forming, the highest high and lowest low are captured and plotted as the range.
* **Trend filter**
* **EMA Fast** and **EMA Slow** define directional bias.
* **ADX (optional)** adds “trend strength”: only when the Average Directional Index is above the chosen threshold do we treat the move as strong. You can source this from a higher timeframe.
* **Zones**
* There are **two independent pairs** of pivots at the same time (for example 10-left 10-right and 5-left 5-right).
* Each detected pivot creates a **Supply** (from a swing high) or **Demand** (from a swing low) box. Box depth = **zone depth × Average True Range** for adaptive sizing; the boxes **extend forward**.
* Midline (optional dashed line inside the box) is the “balance” of the zone.
* **“Only in trend”** mode can hide boxes that go against the higher-timeframe bias.
* The **touch counter** increases when price revisits the box. Labels show the pair name and the number of touches.
* **Bubbles**
* A safe **delta proxy** measures bar pressure (for example, range-weighted close vs open).
* A **quantile filter** shows only unusually large pressure: choose lookback and percentile, and the script draws a circle sized by intensity (green = bullish pressure, red = bearish).
* **Densities**
* The script marks heavy activity clusters as **subtle bands** around price (depth = fraction of Average True Range).
* If price **breaks** a density with volume above its moving average, the band **disappears** (“eaten”), which often precedes continuation.
---
## How to use — practical playbooks
> Recommended chart: crypto or index futures, one to five minutes. Use **one hour** or **fifteen minutes** for the higher-timeframe bias.
### 1) Trend pullback scalp (continuation)
1. Enable **Only in trend** zones.
2. In an uptrend: wait for a pullback into a **Demand** zone that overlaps with VWAP or sits just below the Opening Range midpoint.
3. Look for **green bubbles** near the zone’s bottom or a fresh **density** under price.
4. Enter on a candle closing **back above the zone midline**.
5. Stop-loss: below the bottom of the zone or a small multiple of Average True Range.
6. Targets: previous swing high, Opening Range high, fixed risk multiples, or VWAP.
Mirror the logic for downtrends using Supply zones, red bubbles and densities above price.
### 2) Reversion with liquidity sweep (fade)
1. Bias neutral or countertrend allowed.
2. Price **wicks through** a zone boundary (or an Opening Range line) and **closes back inside** the zone.
3. The bubble color often flips (absorption).
4. Enter toward the **inside** of the zone; stop beyond the sweep wick; first target = zone midline, second = opposite side of the zone or VWAP.
### 3) Opening Range break and retest
1. Wait for the Opening Range to complete.
2. A break with a large bubble suggests intent.
3. Look for a **retest** into a nearby zone aligned with VWAP.
4. Trade continuation toward the next zone or the session extremes.
### 4) Density “eaten” continuation
1. When a density band **disappears** on high volume, it often means the resting liquidity was consumed.
2. Trade in the direction of the break, toward the nearest opposing zone.

## Tips and risk management
* This script **does not use external order-flow feeds**. Delta is a **proxy** suitable for TradingView; tune quantiles per symbol and timeframe.
* Do not trade every bubble. Combine **context (trend + VWAP + Opening Range)** with **level (zone)** and **effort (bubble/density)**.
* Set stop-losses beyond the zone or at a fraction of Average True Range. Predefine risk per trade.
* Backtest your rules with a strategy script before using real funds.
* Markets differ. Parameters that work on Bitcoin may not transfer to low-liquidity altcoins or stocks.
* Nothing here is financial advice. Scalping is high-risk; slippage and over-trading can quickly damage your account.

(RU)
## Что это такое
**PRO Scalper** — это индикатор для внутридневной торговли, который показывает **контекст и ликвидность прямо сейчас**.
Он объединяет пять модулей, которыми профессиональные скальперы пользуются вместе:
1. **VWAP** — средневзвешенная по объему цена за сессию, «справедливая стоимость» дня.
2. **Opening Range** — первая часть сессии, задающая баланс дня.
3. **Фильтр тренда** — направление старшего таймфрейма по **экспоненциальным средним** и при желании по силе тренда **Average Directional Index**.
4. **Две независимые системы зон спроса/предложения** — зоны строятся от подтвержденных экстремумов (пивотов), имеют **среднюю линию** и **счетчик касаний**.
5. **Визуализация «ордер-флоу»**:
* **Пузыри дельты** (зеленые/красные круги) — места повышенного покупательного/продажного давления, рассчитанные через безопасный **прокси-дельты**.
* **Плотности ликвидности** (ненавязчивые прямоугольные ленты) — скопления объема, которые нередко притягивают цену или удерживают ее и исчезают, когда «разъедаются» сильным движением.
Итог — **полная картинка момента**: среднее (VWAP), баланс дня (Opening Range), старшая сила (фильтр тренда), ближайшие уровни топлива/тормозов (зоны), текущие точки усилия (пузыри и плотности).
---
## Почему именно эти элементы
* **VWAP** показывает, где сосредоточена стоимость; цена либо вращается вокруг него, либо быстро уходит — идеальный ориентир скальпера.
* **Opening Range** фиксирует ранний аукцион — от его границ часто начинаются пробои, возвраты и ретесты.
* **EMA + ADX** отделяют тренд от «пилы», позволяя оставлять на графике только зоны по направлению старшего таймфрейма.
* **Зоны от пивотов** просты, объективны и быстры; средняя линия помогает подтверждать разворот, счетчик касаний переводит субъективность в цифры.
* **Пузыри и плотности** добавляют слой «усилия»: где именно возник толчок и где сконцентрирована ликвидность.
Комбинация **контекста + уровня + усилия** уменьшает двусмысленность и ускоряет принятие решения.
---
## Как это работает (простыми словами)
* **VWAP** каждый день стартует заново: сумма «типичной цены × объем» делится на суммарный объем.
* **Opening Range** — автоматический (кратный минутам вашего таймфрейма) или вручную заданный период; пока он формируется, фиксируются максимум и минимум.
* **Фильтр тренда**
* Две экспоненциальные средние задают направление.
* **ADX** (по желанию) добавляет «силу». Источник можно взять со старшего таймфрейма.
* **Зоны**
* Одновременно работает **две пары** пивотов (например 10-лево 10-право и 5-лево 5-право).
* От пивота строится зона **предложения** (от максимума) или **спроса** (от минимума). Глубина зоны = **коэффициент × Average True Range**; зона тянется вперед.
* Внутри рисуется **средняя линия** (по желанию).
* Режим **«только по тренду»** скрывает зоны против старшего направления.
* **Счетчик касаний** увеличивается, когда цена снова входит в зону; подпись показывает пару и количество касаний.
* **Пузыри**
* Используется безопасный **прокси-дельты** — измерение «напряжения» внутри свечи.
* Через **квантильный фильтр** выводятся только необычно сильные места: настраиваются окно и процент квантиля; размер кружка — сила, цвет: зеленый покупатели, красный продавцы.
* **Плотности**
* Крупные активности отмечаются **ненавязчивыми прямоугольниками** (глубина — доля Average True Range).
* Если плотность **пробивается** объемом выше среднего, она **исчезает** — часто это предвещает продолжение.
---
## Как пользоваться — практические схемы
> Рекомендация: крипто или фьючерсы, таймфрейм 1–5 минут. Для старшего фильтра удобно взять **1 час** или **15 минут**.
### 1) Скальп на откат по тренду
1. Включите **«только по тренду»**.
2. В восходящем тренде дождитесь отката в **зону спроса**, желательно рядом с **VWAP** или серединой **Opening Range**.
3. Подтверждение — **зеленые пузыри** у нижней границы зоны или свежая **плотность** под ценой.
4. Вход после закрытия свечи **выше средней линии** зоны.
5. Стоп-лосс: за нижнюю границу зоны или небольшой множитель Average True Range.
6. Цели: предыдущий максимум, верх Opening Range, фиксированные R-множители, либо VWAP.
Для нисходящего тренда зеркально: зоны предложения, красные пузыри и плотности над ценой.
### 2) Контрдвижение с «выбиванием ликвидности»
1. Нейтральный или контртрендовый режим.
2. Цена **выносит хвостом** границу зоны (или линию Opening Range) и **закрывается обратно внутри**.
3. Цвет пузыря часто меняется (поглощение).
4. Вход внутрь зоны; стоп — за хвост выбивания; цели: средняя линия, противоположная граница зоны или VWAP.
### 3) Пробой Opening Range + ретест
1. Дождитесь завершения диапазона.
2. Сильный пробой с крупным пузырем — признак намерения.
3. Ищите **ретест** в зоне по тренду рядом с линией диапазона и VWAP.
4. Торгуйте продолжение к следующей зоне.
### 4) Продолжение после «съеденной» плотности
1. Когда прямоугольник плотности **исчезает** на повышенном объеме, это значит, что ликвидность поглощена.
2. Торгуйте в сторону пробоя к ближайшей противоположной зоне.

Pro RSI CalculatorThe "Pro RSI Calculator" indicator is the latest addition to a series of custom trading tools that includes the "Pro Supertrend Calculator" and the "Pro Momentum Calculator."
Building upon this series, the "Pro RSI Calculator" is designed to provide traders with further insights into market trends by leveraging the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator.
Its primary objective remains consistent: to analyze historical price data and make informed predictions about future price movements, with a specific focus on identifying potential bullish (green) or bearish (red) candlestick patterns.
1. RSI Calculation:
The indicator begins by computing the RSI, a widely used momentum oscillator. It calculates two crucial RSI parameters:
RSI Length: This parameter determines the lookback period for RSI calculations.
RSI Upper and Lower Bands: These thresholds define overbought and oversold conditions, typically set at 70 and 30, respectively.
2. RSI Bands Visualization:
The RSI values obtained from the calculation are skillfully plotted on the price chart, appearing as two distinct lines:
Red Line: Represents the RSI when indicating a bearish trend, anticipating potential price declines.
Teal Line: Represents the RSI in bullish market conditions, signaling the possibility of price increases.
3. Consecutive Candlestick Analysis:
The indicator's core functionality revolves around tracking consecutive candlestick patterns based on their relationship with the RSI lines.
To be included in the analysis, a candlestick must consistently close either above (green candles) or below (red candles) the RSI lines for multiple consecutive periods.
4. Labeling and Enumeration:
To communicate the count of consecutive candles displaying consistent trend behavior, the indicator meticulously assigns labels to the price chart.
Label positioning varies depending on the trend's direction, appearing either below (for bullish patterns) or above (for bearish patterns) the candlesticks.
The color scheme aligns with the candle colors: green labels for bullish candles and red labels for bearish ones.
5. Tabular Data Presentation:
The indicator enhances its graphical analysis with a customizable table that prominently displays comprehensive statistical insights.
Key data points in the table include:
- Consecutive Candles: The count of consecutive candles displaying consistent trend characteristics.
- Candles Above Upper RSI: The number of candles closing above the upper RSI threshold during the consecutive period.
- Candles Below Lower RSI: The number of candles closing below the lower RSI threshold during the consecutive period.
- Upcoming Green Candle: An estimated probability of the next candlestick being bullish, derived from historical data.
- Upcoming Red Candle: An estimated probability of the next candlestick being bearish, also based on historical data.
6. Custom Configuration:
To cater to various trading strategies and preferences, the indicator offers extensive customization options.
Traders can fine-tune parameters like RSI length, upper, and lower bands, label and table placement, and table size to align with their unique trading approaches.
Pro Supertrend CalculatorThis indicator is an adapted version of Julien_Eche's 'Pro Momentum Calculator' tailored specifically for TradingView's 'Supertrend indicator'.
The "Pro Supertrend Calculator" indicator has been developed to provide traders with a data-driven perspective on price movements in financial markets. Its primary objective is to analyze historical price data and make probabilistic predictions about the future direction of price movements, specifically in terms of whether the next candlestick will be bullish (green) or bearish (red). Here's a deeper technical insight into how it accomplishes this task:
1. Supertrend Computation:
The indicator initiates by computing the Supertrend indicator, a sophisticated technical analysis tool. This calculation involves two essential parameters:
- ATR Length (Average True Range Length): This parameter determines the sensitivity of the Supertrend to price fluctuations.
- Factor: This multiplier plays a pivotal role in establishing the distance between the Supertrend line and prevailing market prices. A higher factor value results in a more significant separation.
2. Supertrend Visualization:
The Supertrend values derived from the calculation are meticulously plotted on the price chart, manifesting as two distinct lines:
- Green Line: This line represents the Supertrend when it indicates a bullish trend, signifying an anticipation of rising prices.
- Red Line: This line signifies the Supertrend in bearish market conditions, indicating an expectation of falling prices.
3. Consecutive Candle Analysis:
- The core function of the indicator revolves around tracking successive candlestick patterns concerning their relationship with the Supertrend line.
- To be included in the analysis, a candlestick must consistently close either above (green candles) or below (red candles) the Supertrend line for multiple consecutive periods.
4.Labeling and Enumeration:
- To communicate the count of consecutive candles displaying uniform trend behavior, the indicator meticulously applies labels to the price chart.
- The positioning of these labels varies based on the direction of the trend, residing either below (for bullish patterns) or above (for bearish patterns) the candlestick.
- The color scheme employed aligns with the color of the candle, using green labels for bullish candles and red labels for bearish ones.
5. Tabular Data Presentation:
- The indicator augments its graphical analysis with a customizable table prominently displayed on the chart. This table delivers comprehensive statistical insights.
- The tabular data comprises the following key elements for each consecutive period:
a. Consecutive Candles: A tally of the number of consecutive candles displaying identical trend characteristics.
b. Candles Above Supertrend: A count of candles that remained above the Supertrend during the sequential period.
3. Candles Below Supertrend: A count of candles that remained below the Supertrend during the sequential period.
4. Upcoming Green Candle: An estimation of the probability that the next candlestick will be bullish, grounded in historical data.
5. Upcoming Red Candle: An estimation of the probability that the next candlestick will be bearish, based on historical data.
6. Tailored Configuration:
To accommodate diverse trading strategies and preferences, the indicator offers extensive customization options. Traders can fine-tune parameters such as ATR length, factor, label and table placement, and table size to align with their unique trading approaches.
In summation, the "Pro Supertrend Calculator" indicator is an intricately designed tool that leverages the Supertrend indicator in conjunction with historical price data to furnish traders with an informed outlook on potential future price dynamics, with a particular emphasis on the likelihood of specific bullish or bearish candlestick patterns stemming from consecutive price behavior.
Pro Momentum Table + Trade Alerts📊 Indicator Name: Pro Momentum Table – ADX + DI + ATR + Astro Timing
🧠 Concept:
This indicator is designed for professional scalpers and intraday traders who want to capture only strong momentum waves — not noise. It combines trend strength, volatility, directional movement, momentum oscillation, vega divergence, and astrological timing into a single compact table on your chart.
⚙️ Components Explained:
Metric Description
ADX (Average Directional Index) Measures the strength of the trend. Values above 20 indicate that a meaningful move is starting.
+DI / -DI (Directional Indicators) Show whether buyers (+DI) or sellers (-DI) are dominating. Increasing +DI with ADX rising = bullish momentum. Increasing -DI with ADX rising = bearish momentum.
ATR (Average True Range) Shows volatility and expected range. Used for setting realistic stop-loss and multi-level targets (1×, 1.5×, 2×, 2.5× ATR).
Price Displays the current price level for quick reference.
CMO (Chande Momentum Oscillator) Measures short-term momentum direction and strength. Helps identify overbought/oversold conditions in trend continuation.
Vega Divergence Shows a synthetic reading of volatility pressure — "Bullish" when volatility expansion supports upward moves, "Bearish" for downward pressure, and "Neutral" otherwise.
Astro Remark Suggests ideal time windows based on planetary cycles for scalping entries. “Bullish Window” often aligns with high-probability long trades; “Bearish Window” favors shorts.
Trade Signal The core momentum condition: “Bullish Momentum” if ADX > 20 and +DI rising, “Bearish Momentum” if ADX > 20 and -DI rising, else “No Clear Momentum.”
📈 How to Use:
Wait for ADX > 20 – This confirms that the market is entering a strong momentum phase.
Check DI direction:
✅ +DI rising: Buyers gaining strength → look for long setups.
✅ -DI rising: Sellers gaining strength → look for short setups.
Use ATR to plan exits:
🎯 TP1 = Entry ± 1 × ATR
🎯 TP2 = Entry ± 1.5 × ATR
🎯 TP3 = Entry ± 2 × ATR
🎯 TP4 = Entry ± 2.5 × ATR
CMO & Vega Divergence: Confirm momentum direction and volatility expansion before committing.
Astro Remark: Align your scalping activity with the planetary support window for higher probability trades.
🪙 Pro Tips for Scalpers:
Only trade when ADX > 20 and DI is consistently rising. Ignore signals in choppy or sideways phases.
Avoid trades if Vega is neutral and CMO is flat – these usually indicate fake breakouts.
If targets aren’t hit within expected ATR-based time, treat the move as false and exit early.
Combine with 9 EMA and 20 EMA (hidden) for wave structure confirmation without cluttering the chart.
💡 Summary:
This indicator acts as a real-time trade decision dashboard. It removes clutter from the chart and delivers everything a professional scalper needs — strength, direction, volatility, momentum, timing, and actionable trade bias — all in one elegant table.
Pro Momentum CalculatorThe Pro Momentum Calculator Indicator is a tool for traders seeking to gauge market momentum and predict future price movements. It achieves this by counting consecutive candle periods above or below a chosen Simple Moving Average (SMA) and then providing a percentage-based probability for the direction of the next candle.
Here's how this principle works:
1. Counting Consecutive Periods: The indicator continuously tracks whether the closing prices of candles are either above or below the chosen SMA.
- When closing prices are above the SMA, it counts consecutive periods as "green" or indicating potential upward momentum.
- When closing prices are below the SMA, it counts consecutive periods as "red" or suggesting potential downward momentum.
2. Assessing Momentum: By monitoring these consecutive periods, the indicator assesses the strength and duration of the current market trend.
This is important information for traders looking to understand the market's behavior.
3. Predicting the Next Candle: Based on the historical data of consecutive green and red periods, the indicator calculates a percentage probability for the direction of the next candle:
- If there have been more consecutive green periods, it suggests a higher likelihood of the next candle being green (indicating a potential upward movement).
- If there have been more consecutive red periods, it suggests a higher likelihood of the next candle being red (indicating a potential downward movement).
The Pro Momentum Calculator indicator's versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of financial markets, including stocks, Forex, indices, commodities, cryptocurrencies...

Comprehensive Table Display : A small table on the chart shows the current trend, the stop level, and whether advanced mode is active. This simple display provides an overview of the market, making decision-making easier.
Based on Larry Williams' Methodology : WillStop Pro builds upon Larry Williams' ideas, which are designed to capture major market trends while managing risk effectively. It provides a systematic way to follow these strategies without requiring deep technical analysis skills.
How Are Stop Levels Calculated? (For Advanced Users)
The WillStop Pro indicator determines stop levels by evaluating highs, lows, and closing prices over a specific lookback period. It uses this information to identify key points that justify adjusting your stop level, and there are separate approaches for both long and short positions.
Below, we explain the mathematical logic behind the stop calculations, along with some code snippets to give advanced users a clearer understanding.
For Long Stops (buy positions): The indicator looks for the highest closing price within the lookback period and continues until it finds three valid bars that meet certain criteria. Stops are adjusted to skip bars that have consecutive upward closes to ensure that the stop is placed at a level that offers solid support. Specifically, the function iterates over recent bars to determine the highest closing value, and checks for specific conditions before finalizing the stop level. Here is an excerpt of the relevant code:
getTrueLow(idx) => math.min(low , close )
findStopLevels() =>
float highestClose = close
int highestCloseIndex = 0
for i = 0 to lookback
if close > highestClose
highestClose := close
highestCloseIndex := i
// Logic to adjust based on up close skipping
int longCount = 0
int longCurrentIndex = highestCloseIndex
while longCount < 3 and longCurrentIndex < 100
if not isInsideBar(longCurrentIndex)
longCount += 1
longCurrentIndex += 1
// Determine the lowest low for the stop level
float longStopLevel = high * 2
for i = searchIndex to highestCloseIndex
longStopLevel := math.min(longStopLevel, getTrueLow(i))
// Apply offset
longStopLevel := longStopLevel - (offsetTicks * tickSize)
In this code snippet, the function findStopLevels() calculates the long stop level by first identifying the highest close within the lookback period and then finding a suitable support level while skipping certain conditions, such as inside bars or consecutive upward closes. Finally, the user-defined offset ( offsetTicks ) is applied to determine the stop level.
For Short Stops (sell positions): Similarly, the indicator finds the lowest closing price within the lookback period and then identifies three bars that fit the conditions for a short stop. It avoids using bars with consecutive down closes to help find a more robust resistance level. Here's a relevant code snippet:
getTrueHigh(idx) => math.max(high , close )
findStopLevels() =>
float lowestClose = close
int lowestCloseIndex = 0
for i = 0 to lookback
if close < lowestClose
lowestClose := close
lowestCloseIndex := i
// Logic to adjust based on down close skipping
int shortCount = 0
int shortCurrentIndex = lowestCloseIndex
while shortCount < 3 and shortCurrentIndex < 100
if not isInsideBar(shortCurrentIndex)
shortCount += 1
shortCurrentIndex += 1
// Determine the highest high for the stop level
float shortStopLevel = 0
for i = searchIndex to lowestCloseIndex
shortStopLevel := math.max(shortStopLevel, getTrueHigh(i))
// Apply offset
shortStopLevel := shortStopLevel + (offsetTicks * tickSize)
Here, findStopLevels() calculates the short stop level by finding the lowest closing price within the lookback period. It then determines the highest value that acts as a resistance level, excluding bars that do not fit certain criteria.
Volume Confirmation for Alert Accuracy : To further enhance the stop level accuracy, volume is used as a confirmation filter. The average volume (volAvg) is calculated over a 20-period moving average, and alerts are only generated if the volume exceeds a defined threshold (volMultiplier). This ensures that price movements are significant enough to consider as meaningful signals.
volAvg = ta.sma(volume, 20)
isVolumeConfirmed() =>
result = requireVolumeConfirmation ? volume > (volAvg * volMultiplier) : true
result
This additional logic ensures that stop level breaks or adjustments are not triggered during periods of low trading activity, thus enhancing the reliability of the generated signals.
These calculations are at the core of WillStop Pro's ability to determine dynamic stop levels that respond effectively to market movements, helping traders manage risk by placing stops at levels that make sense given historical price and volume data.
How to Identify Opportunities with WillStop Pro
WillStop Pro provides various signals that help you decide when to enter or exit a trade:
When a Stop Level is Broken: If a stop level (support for long positions or resistance for short positions) is broken, it may indicate a reversal. WillStop Pro visually plots arrows whenever a stop level is breached, making it easy for you to see where changes might occur. This feature helps traders identify momentum shifts quickly.
Support and Resistance Levels: The indicator plots support and resistance levels, which show key zones to watch for opportunities. These levels often act as psychological barriers in the market, where price action may either reverse or stall temporarily.
Dynamic State Management: The indicator shifts between long and short states based on price action, providing real-time feedback. This helps traders stick to their trading plan without second-guessing the market.
A major advantage of WillStop Pro is that it responds well to changing market conditions. By identifying when key support or resistance levels break, it allows you to adjust your strategies and react to new opportunities accordingly. Whether the market is trending strongly or staying within a range, WillStop Pro provides valuable information to help guide your trades.
Setting Up Alerts
Alerts are an important feature in trading, especially when you can’t be in front of your charts all the time. WillStop Pro has been enhanced to include flexible alert settings to help you stay on top of your trades without constantly monitoring the charts.
Enable Alerts: There is a master switch to enable or disable all alerts. This way, you can control whether you want to be notified of events at any time.
Alert Frequency: Choose between receiving alerts Once Per Bar or Once Per Bar Close . This helps you manage the frequency of alerts and decide if you need real-time updates or want confirmation after a bar closes.
Break Alerts: These alerts notify you when a stop level has been broken. This can help you catch potential reversals or trading opportunities as soon as they happen.
Strong Break Alerts: Alerts are available for strong breaks, which occur when the price breaks stop levels with confirmation based on additional price, volume, and momentum criteria. These alerts help identify significant shifts in the market.
Level Change Alerts: These alerts tell you whenever a new stop level is calculated, keeping you updated about changes in market dynamics. You can set a Minimum Level Change % to ensure that alerts are only triggered when the stop level changes significantly.
Require Volume Confirmation: You can opt to receive alerts only if the volume is above a certain threshold. This confirmation helps reduce false signals by ensuring that significant price changes are backed by increased trading activity.
Volume Multiplier: The volume multiplier allows you to set a minimum volume requirement that must be met for an alert to trigger. This ensures that alerts are triggered only when there is sufficient trading interest.
Here is a part of the updated alert logic that has been implemented in the indicator:
// Alert on break conditions
if alertsEnabled
if alertOnBreaks
if longStopBroken and isVolumeConfirmed()
alert(createAlertMessage("Support Break - Short Signal", useAdvancedStops), alertFreq)
if shortStopBroken and isVolumeConfirmed()
alert(createAlertMessage("Resistance Break - Long Signal", useAdvancedStops), alertFreq)
// Strong break alerts
if alertOnStrongBreaks
if longStopBroken and isStrongBreak(false)
alert(createAlertMessage("Strong Support Break - Short Signal", useAdvancedStops), alertFreq)
if shortStopBroken and isStrongBreak(true)
alert(createAlertMessage("Strong Resistance Break - Long Signal", useAdvancedStops), alertFreq)
// Level change alerts
if alertOnLevelChanges and isSignificantChange() and isVolumeConfirmed()
alert(createAlertMessage("Significant Level Change", useAdvancedStops), alertFreq)
Setting alerts allows you to react to market changes without having to watch the charts constantly. Alerts are particularly helpful if you have other responsibilities and can’t be actively monitoring your trades all day.
Understanding the Table Display

Neeson Volatility Adaptive Tracker ProVolatility Adaptive Tracker Pro: A Comprehensive Multi-Method Trading System
Executive Summary
The Volatility Adaptive Tracker Pro (VAT Pro) represents a sophisticated fusion of proven technical analysis methodologies with innovative adaptations, creating a unique multi-signal trading system. Unlike single-purpose indicators, VAT Pro combines multiple analytical approaches into a unified framework that addresses the complex realities of modern financial markets. This system is designed for traders who recognize that no single method consistently outperforms, and that market conditions require adaptive, multi-faceted approaches.
Original Innovations: What Sets VAT Pro Apart
1. Hybrid Volatility Measurement System
Most volatility indicators fall into two categories: those based on standard deviation (like Bollinger Bands) or those based on average true range (ATR). VAT Pro introduces a third approach: a weighted volatility measurement system that gives greater importance to recent price movements while maintaining sensitivity to overall market conditions. This creates a dynamic volatility assessment that adapts more responsively to changing market environments than conventional methods.
2. Dual-Layer Signal Architecture
While most indicators generate single-type signals, VAT Pro implements a tiered signaling system that distinguishes between:
Primary trend-following signals (based on price crossing adaptive volatility bands)
Secondary volume-confirmed signals (requiring both price movement and exceptional volume)
This dual-layer approach recognizes that not all market moves have equal significance, and that volume confirmation often signals more substantial moves worthy of special attention.
3. State-Based Logic with Memory
Conventional indicators typically generate signals independently on each bar. VAT Pro introduces persistent state tracking that maintains awareness of whether the market is currently in a bullish, bearish, or neutral condition. This prevents signal redundancy, reduces false signals, and provides valuable context for interpreting current market conditions.
What VAT Pro Does: Comprehensive Market Analysis
Primary Functions
Trend Identification: Detects transitions between bullish and bearish market conditions using multiple confirmation criteria.
Volume Analysis: Identifies exceptional trading activity that often precedes or confirms significant price movements.
Volatility Assessment: Continuously measures market volatility and adjusts sensitivity parameters accordingly.
Visual Context Provision: Uses color-coded price bars, trend lines, and clear signal markers to provide immediate visual feedback.
Multi-Timeframe Compatibility: Functions effectively across various trading timeframes from intraday to positional trading.
Implementation Methodology: The Technical Framework
Core Analytical Approaches
Among the hundreds of available technical analysis methods, VAT Pro specifically implements and integrates:
A. Adaptive Volatility Channel System
This approach modifies the traditional volatility channel concept by:
Using weighted moving averages for volatility calculation rather than simple or exponential averages
Implementing asymmetric response to upward versus downward volatility
Maintaining dynamic channel width that adjusts based on recent market conditions
The system falls within the broader category of volatility-adjusted trend following but introduces unique adaptations that improve responsiveness while maintaining stability.
B. Volume-Price Confirmation Method
Within volume analysis, VAT Pro specifically employs:
Threshold-based volume spike detection (volume exceeding moving average by specified multiples)
Price-direction confirmation (requiring price movement in the expected direction)
Contextual filtering (only considering volume signals in specific market conditions)
This represents a specific implementation within the volume confirmation family of methods, distinguished by its customizable thresholds and filtering logic.
C. Trailing Stop with Adaptive Positioning
The system implements a specific variant of trailing stop methodology characterized by:
State-dependent positioning (different logic for trending versus ranging markets)
Volatility-adjusted distance (stop levels adapt to current market conditions)
Memory of previous positions (the system "remembers" previous trend states)
This approach represents an advanced form of trailing stop placement that combines elements of volatility adjustment with trend state awareness.
Calculation Philosophy: The Core Principles
1. Weighted Response Philosophy
VAT Pro operates on the principle that recent market action should have greater influence than distant history, but not to the exclusion of broader context. This is implemented through custom weighting algorithms that balance responsiveness with stability.
2. Multi-Factor Confirmation Principle
The system is built on the premise that multiple confirming factors (price action, volume, volatility) provide more reliable signals than single-factor approaches. This represents a practical implementation of convergence/divergence analysis across different market dimensions.
3. State Transition Logic
Rather than viewing each bar in isolation, VAT Pro analyzes sequences of price action to determine market states and state transitions. This recognizes that markets often move through identifiable phases (accumulation, trending, distribution, ranging) that require different analytical approaches.
4. Adaptive Sensitivity
The system automatically adjusts its sensitivity based on current market volatility, becoming more responsive in low-volatility conditions and more stable in high-volatility environments. This represents a practical implementation of volatility-adjusted trading logic.

Enhanced Volume Flow Analysis Pro ♾️ IFEnhanced Volume Flow Analysis Pro (EVFA Pro)
A Comprehensive Guide to Understanding and Using Volume Flow Analysis
Introduction
The Enhanced Volume Flow Analysis Pro (EVFA Pro) represents a sophisticated approach to understanding market dynamics through the lens of volume analysis. This advanced technical indicator has been designed to peel back the layers of market activity, revealing the intricate dance between institutional and retail traders. By combining volume analysis, participant behavior patterns, and market condition recognition, EVFA Pro provides traders with a deeper understanding of market movements and potential opportunities.
Understanding the Core Framework
At its heart, EVFA Pro works by analyzing and categorizing trading volume based on several key characteristics. The indicator examines not just the raw volume, but also the context in which that volume occurs. It considers factors such as price movement, historical patterns, and market conditions to classify trading activity as either institutional or retail in nature.
The framework adapts dynamically to different market environments. Whether you're trading stocks, ETFs, cryptocurrencies, or commodities, the indicator automatically adjusts its parameters to match the typical behavior patterns of each asset class. This adaptability extends to different trading styles as well, with optimizations for everything from quick-paced scalping to longer-term position trading.
Market Participant Analysis
One of the most powerful aspects of EVFA Pro is its ability to distinguish between institutional and retail trading activity. The indicator accomplishes this through a sophisticated analysis of volume patterns, order flow, and price action. Institutional trading typically leaves distinct footprints in the market - large, well-organized volume patterns that often occur at strategic price levels. EVFA Pro identifies these patterns and separates them from the more scattered, emotion-driven patterns typical of retail trading.
The indicator maintains a constant watch on participation rates from both groups. When institutional participation rises above normal levels, it could signal the beginning of a significant move. Similarly, spikes in retail activity, especially when combined with certain price patterns, might indicate potential market turning points.
Reading Market Conditions
Market conditions are not static, and EVFA Pro recognizes this fundamental truth. The indicator continuously evaluates market conditions, classifying them into four main categories: normal, volatile, ranging, and trending. This classification isn't merely descriptive - it directly influences how the indicator interprets various patterns and signals.
In volatile markets, the indicator becomes more conservative in its pattern recognition, requiring stronger confirmation before signaling potential opportunities. During ranging periods, it adjusts to look for shorter-term movements and potential breakout scenarios. In trending markets, the focus shifts to finding continuation patterns and potential exhaustion points.
Pattern Recognition and Signal Generation
Pattern recognition in EVFA Pro goes beyond simple technical patterns. The indicator looks for complex interactions between volume, price, and participant behavior. It identifies accumulation patterns - periods where institutional buyers are actively building positions, often while keeping price movements relatively subtle to avoid drawing attention. Similarly, it recognizes distribution patterns, where larger players are gradually reducing positions.
Signal generation involves a sophisticated weighing of multiple factors. Volume strength, institutional participation, trend alignment, and price momentum all play roles in determining signal strength. This multi-factor approach helps reduce false signals and provides a more reliable indication of potential market moves.
Visual Analysis Tools
The visual components of EVFA Pro have been carefully designed to present complex information in an intuitive format. The main chart overlay uses color-coded volume bars to show the relative participation of institutional and retail traders. The intensity of these colors varies with volume significance, helping traders quickly identify potentially important market activity.
The information table provides a real-time summary of market conditions, participant activity, and detected patterns. This dashboard-style display allows traders to quickly assess market conditions and potential opportunities without needing to analyze multiple indicators.
Practical Application in Trading
To use EVFA Pro effectively, traders should integrate it into a comprehensive trading strategy. The indicator works best when its signals are considered alongside other forms of analysis and risk management tools. Strong signals from EVFA Pro might suggest potential opportunities, but traders should always consider the broader market context, their own risk tolerance, and their overall trading plan.
The indicator's alerts system can help traders stay informed of potentially significant market developments. However, these alerts should be viewed as starting points for analysis rather than automatic trading signals. Each alert provides specific information about the type of pattern or condition detected, allowing traders to quickly assess whether further investigation is warranted.
Advanced Features and Customization
EVFA Pro offers extensive customization options to suit different trading styles and preferences. Traders can adjust sensitivity levels, color schemes, and display options to match their needs. The indicator also includes special considerations for different trading sessions, allowing for more accurate analysis during pre-market, regular trading hours, and after-hours periods.
Market Application and Interpretation
Success with EVFA Pro comes from understanding not just what it shows, but why it shows what it does. The indicator's patterns and signals reflect real market dynamics - the actions and reactions of different types of traders. By understanding these underlying dynamics, traders can make more informed decisions about market opportunities and risks.

Smart Money Trades Pro [BOSWaves]Smart Money Trades Pro – Advanced Market Structure & Liquidity Visualizer
Overview
Smart Money Trades Pro is a comprehensive trading tool designed for traders seeking an in-depth understanding of market structure, liquidity dynamics, and institutional flow. The indicator systematically identifies key market turning points, including break of structure (BOS) and change of character (CHoCH) events, and overlays these with adaptive visualizations to highlight high-probability trade setups. By integrating ATR-based risk zones, progressive take-profit levels, and real-time trade analytics, Smart Money Trades Pro transforms complex price action into an interpretable framework suitable for multiple trading styles, including scalping, intraday, and swing trading.
Unlike traditional static indicators, Smart Money Trades Pro adapts continuously to market conditions. It evaluates swing highs and lows over a configurable lookback period, then determines structural breaks using customizable confirmation methods (candle body or wick). The resulting signals are augmented with dynamic entry, stop-loss, and target levels, allowing traders to analyze potential trade opportunities with both precision and context. The indicator’s design ensures that each visual element—trend-colored candles, signal markers, and risk/reward boxes—reflects real-time market conditions, offering an actionable interpretation of institutional activity.
How It Works
The indicator’s foundation is built upon market structure analysis. By calculating pivot highs and lows over a specified period, Smart Money Trades Pro identifies potential points of liquidity accumulation and exhaustion. When price breaks a pivot high or low, the indicator evaluates whether this constitutes a BOS or a CHoCH, signaling trend continuation or reversal. These events are marked on the chart with distinct visual cues, allowing traders to quickly discern shifts in market sentiment without manually analyzing historical price action.
Once a structural break is confirmed, the indicator automatically determines entry levels, stop-loss placements, and progressive take-profit zones (TP1, TP2, TP3). These calculations are based on ATR-derived volatility, ensuring that targets scale with current market conditions. Risk and reward zones are plotted as shaded boxes, providing a clear visual representation of potential profit relative to risk for each trade setup. This system allows traders to maintain discipline and consistency, with dynamic trade management baked directly into the visualization.
Trend direction is further reinforced by color-coded candles, which reflect the prevailing market bias. Bullish trends are represented by one color, bearish trends by another, and neutral conditions are displayed in muted tones. This continuous visual feedback simplifies the process of trend assessment and helps confirm the validity of trade setups alongside BOS and CHoCH markers.
Signals and Breakouts
Smart Money Trades Pro includes structured visual signals to indicate actionable price movements:
Bullish Break Signals – Triangular markers below the candle appear when a swing high is broken, suggesting potential long opportunities.
Bearish Break Signals – Triangular markers above the candle appear when a swing low is broken, indicating potential short setups.
Change of Character (CHoCH) – Special markers highlight trend reversals, showing where momentum shifts from bullish to bearish or vice versa.
These markers are strategically spaced to prevent overlap and remain clear during high-volatility periods. Traders can use them in combination with trend-colored candles, risk/reward zones, and ATR-based targets to assess the strength and reliability of each setup. The integrated table provides live trade information, including entry price, stop-loss level, take-profit levels, risk/reward ratio, and trade direction, ensuring that trade decisions are informed and data-driven.
Interpretation
Trend Analysis : The indicator’s trend coloring, combined with BOS and CHoCH detection, provides an immediate view of market direction. Rising structures indicate bullish momentum, while falling structures signal bearish momentum. CHoCH markers highlight potential trend reversals or significant liquidity sweeps.
Volatility and Risk Assessment : ATR-based calculations determine stop-loss distances and target levels, giving a quantitative measure of risk relative to market volatility. Wide ATR readings indicate periods of high price fluctuation, whereas narrow readings suggest consolidation and reduced risk exposure.
Market Structure Insights : By monitoring swing highs and lows alongside break confirmations, traders can identify where institutional players are likely active. Areas with multiple structural breaks or overlapping targets can indicate liquidity hotspots, potential reversal zones, or areas of market congestion.
Trade Management : The built-in trade zones allow traders to visualize entry, risk, and reward simultaneously. Progressive targets (TP1, TP2, TP3) reflect incremental profit-taking strategies, while dynamic stop-loss levels help preserve capital during adverse moves.
Strategy Integration
Smart Money Trades Pro supports a range of trading approaches:
Trend Following : Enter trades in the direction of confirmed BOS while using CHoCH markers and trend-colored candles to validate momentum.
Pullback Entries : Use failed breakout retests or minor reversals toward broken structure levels for lower-risk entries.
Mean Reversion : In consolidated zones with narrow ATR and repeated BOS/CHoCH activity, anticipate reversals or short-term corrective moves.
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation : Overlay signals on higher or lower timeframes to filter noise and improve trade accuracy.
Stop-loss levels should be placed just beyond the opposing structural point, while take-profit targets can be scaled using the ATR-based zones. Progressive targets allow for partial exits or scaling out of trades while maintaining exposure to larger moves.
Advanced Techniques
Traders seeking greater precision can combine Smart Money Trades Pro with volume, momentum, or volatility indicators to validate signals. Observing sequences of BOS and CHoCH markers across multiple timeframes provides insight into liquidity accumulation and depletion trends. Tracking the expansion or contraction of ATR-based zones helps anticipate shifts in volatility, enabling better timing for entries and exits.
Customizing the structure period and confirmation type allows the indicator to adapt to different asset classes and timeframes. Shorter periods increase sensitivity to smaller swings, while longer periods filter noise and emphasize higher-probability structural breaks. By integrating these features, the indicator offers a robust statistical framework for disciplined, data-driven trading decisions.
Inputs and Customization
Structure Detection Period : Defines the lookback window for pivot high and low calculation.
Break Confirmation : Choose whether to confirm breaks using candle body or wick.
Display CHoCH : Toggle visibility of change-of-character markers.
Color Trend Bars : Enable color-coding of candles based on market structure direction.

Introduction
Hey there! 👋
Welcome to our overview of the Flat Market Range Pro indicator. Whether you're new to trading or a seasoned pro, this tool is designed to help you spot those flat market conditions where prices are chilling within a certain range. By highlighting these consolidation zones and potential breakout points, it offers some pretty neat insights to boost your trading strategies. Let’s dive in and explore how this indicator can make your trading journey smoother and more informed!
How It Works
The Flat Market Range Pro indicator is all about understanding the ebb and flow of the market. Here's a simple breakdown:
Range Detection:
Range Period (range_period): This sets the number of bars (think of them as time slices) the indicator looks back to find the highest highs and lowest lows. It’s like setting the scope for your search.
Minimum Candles in Range (min_candles_in_range): Ensures that there are enough candles (price bars) within the range to make the detection meaningful. No point in highlighting a range if it’s too short, right?
Adaptive Moving Average (AMA):
Think of AMA as the indicator’s way of staying flexible. It smooths out the price data to better spot trends within those flat ranges. Don’t worry, it’s working behind the scenes and won’t clutter your chart.
Breakout Detection:
When the price decides to break free from its cozy range, the indicator flags it. It waits for confirmation to make sure it’s not just a fleeting move, adding a layer of reliability to your signals.
Visualization:
Flat Market Zones: These are shaded areas that highlight where the price has been consolidating.
Support and Resistance Lines: Automatically drawn lines that mark key price levels, helping you see where the price might bounce or break through.
Trade Signals: Arrows popping up to show potential buy or sell opportunities when breakouts occur.
Breaking It Down
1. Detecting the Range
The indicator scans through the past range_period bars to find the highest and lowest prices. This creates a dynamic range that adjusts as new data comes in. It’s like having a smart assistant keeping an eye on where the action is happening.
2. The Role of AMA
Even though you won’t see AMA on your chart, it plays a crucial role. It helps the indicator adapt to changing market conditions by smoothing out the data, making sure the breakout signals are spot-on and not just random noise.
3. Spotting Breakouts
A breakout happens when the price moves beyond the established range. The indicator marks these moments with clear arrows, so you know when it might be a good time to jump in or out of a trade. Plus, it waits for confirmation to ensure these signals are solid.
4. Visualizing Flat Markets
Shaded boxes highlight the areas where the price has been consolidating, making it easy to see when the market is flat. Support and resistance lines are drawn automatically, and you can even customize how they look to match your personal style.

Change the ma_length and ma_lookback to fine-tune how the AMA responds to price movements.
Visual Tweaks:
Pick your favorite colors and transparency levels for the shaded zones.
Choose whether to display support and resistance lines and extend them indefinitely if you like.
Toggle trade arrows and labels on or off based on what you find most helpful.
Organizing these settings into logical groups makes it super easy to customize the indicator just the way you like it.
Real-World Examples
1. Spotting Consolidation: Imagine you’re watching a stock that’s been moving sideways for a while. The indicator highlights this consolidation with shaded boxes and support/resistance lines, giving you a clear picture of where the price is hanging out.
2. Trading Breakouts: When the price finally decides to break free from the range, the indicator pops up buy or sell arrows. This helps you catch the move early, whether you’re looking to enter a new trade or exit an existing one.
3. Making Informed Decisions: With clear visual cues and reliable signals, you can make smarter trading decisions without getting overwhelmed by too much information.

CVD by tick levels
Customizable values area percentage
The image above thoroughly outlines what each metric in the delta boxes shows!
Metrics In Delta Boxes
"δ:", "\nδ%:", "\n⧎: ", "\n◭: ", "\n⧩: "
δ Delta (Difference between buy and sell volume)
δ% Delta Ratio (Delta as a percentage of total volume)
⧎ Total Volume At Level (Total volume at the price area)
◭ Total Buy Volume At Level (Total buy volume at the price area)
⧩ Total Sell Volume At Level (total sell volume at the price area)
Each metric comes with a corresponding symbol.
That said, until you become comfortable with the symbol, you can also turn on the descriptive labels setting!
The image above exemplifies the feature.
The image above shows Footprint IQ's full power!
Additionally, traders with an upgraded TradingView plan can make use of the "1-Second" feature Footprint IQ offers!
The image above shows each footprint generated using 1-second volume data. 1-second data is highly granular compared to 1-minute data and, consequently, each footprint is exceptionally more accurate!
Imbalance Detection
Footprint IQ pro is capable of detecting user-defined delta imbalances.
The image above further explains how Footprint IQ detects imbalances!
The imbalance percentage is customizable in the settings, and is set to 70% by default.
Therefore,
When net delta is positive, and the positive net delta constitutes >=70% of the total volume, a buying imbalance will be detected (upwards triangle).
When net delta is negative, and the negative net delta constitutes >=70% of the total volume, a buying imbalance will be detected (downwards triangle).
Stacked Imbalance Detection
In addition to imbalance detection, Footprint IQ Pro can also detect stacked imbalances!
The image above shows Footprint IQ Pro detecting stacked imbalances!
Stacked imbalances occur when consecutive imbalances at sequential price areas occur. Stacked imbalances are generally interpreted as significant price moves that are supported by volume, rather than a significant result with disproportionate effort.
The criteria for stacked imbalance detection (how many imbalances must occur at sequential price areas) is customizable in the settings.
The default value is three. Therefore, when three imbalances occur at sequential price areas, golden triangles will begin to print to show a stacked imbalance.
Additionally, traders can set alerts for when stacked imbalances occur!
Highest +Delta and Highest -Delta Levels
In addition to being a fully-fledged Footprint indicator, Footprint IQ Pro goes one step further by detecting price areas where the greater +Delta and -Delta are!
The image above shows price behavior near highest +Delta price areas detected by Footprint IQ!
These +Delta levels are considered important as there has been strong interest from buyers at these price areas when they are traded at.
It's expected that these levels can function as support points that are supported by volume.
The image above shows a similar function for resistance points!
Blue lines = High +Delta Detected Price Areas
Red lines = High -Delta Detected Price Areas
Value Area Detection
Similar to traditional volume profile, Footprint IQ Pro displays the value area per bar.
Green lines next to each footprint show the value area for the bar. The value area % is customizable in the settings.
CVD Levels
Footprint IQ Pro is capable of storing historical volume delta information to provide CVD measurements at each price area!
The image above exemplifies this feature!
When this feature is enabled, you will see the CVD of each price area, rather than the net delta!
And that's it!
Thank you so much to TradingView for offering the greatest charting platform for everyone to create on!
If you have any feature requests you'd like to see for Footprint IQ, please feel free to share them with us!
Thank you!
