Adaptive Price-Volume SegmentsThis indicator combines Price and Volume data to map out market structure.
While standard charts only show whether price went up or down, this indicator reveals the exact price levels where the highest trading activity (volume) took place.
By identifying where major institutional market participants (banks, hedge funds) have placed their orders, making high-probability trading decisions becomes much clearer.
The 3 Main Visual Components on Your Chart
1. Dashed Lines (Point of Control / POC)
What it is: A dotted horizontal line assigned to each individual cluster. It highlights the single most important price level within that section.
Why it matters: This represents the exact price where the maximum contract quantity was traded.
How to trade it:
If price is trading above this line, it acts as dynamic Support.
If price is trading below this line, it acts as dynamic Resistance.
2. Horizontal Histogram Bars (Volume Profile Boxes)
Long Bars (High Volume Nodes): Indicate price ranges with heavy trading competition between buyers and sellers. When price returns here, it tends to stall or consolidate.
Short Bars or Gaps (Low Volume Nodes): Indicate price levels with low market interest. Price usually moves through these zones very rapidly.
3. Total Volume Readouts
Located on the far-right edge of each cluster (e.g., Total: 1.5M).
Displays the total accumulated volume traded within that entire price segment, helping you determine which price zones hold the most institutional liquidity.
3 Core Trading Strategies
Strategy 1: POC Bounce (Support & Resistance Entries)
Watch how price approaches a segment's POC (dashed line).
If price drops into a POC from above and forms a bullish reaction pattern, look for BUY opportunities.
Place your Stop Loss just below that cluster's boundary and target the next higher cluster's POC.
Strategy 2: Low-Volume Acceleration (Vacuum Zones)
Identify the gaps or short bars between two dense volume profiles.
When price breaks into this low-volume zone, it typically moves quickly toward the next high-volume area due to lack of order friction.
Use these zones to catch high-momentum breakout trades.
Strategy 3: Trend Continuation
If price breaks out of a cluster and holds above it, it confirms trend strength.
As long as price stays above the current cluster's POC, the prevailing Uptrend remains intact.
Key Settings Breakdown
Historical Depth (Default: 200): The lookback window of candles analyzed. Use 100–200 for day trading/scalping, or 300–500 for swing trading.
Total Segments (Default: 5): Divides the price range into 5 distinct clusters to keep the chart clean and readable.
Right Offset (Default: 10): Shifts the volume profile histograms to the right side of active price bars, keeping your main chart clear. Indicator

Volume Profile Anchored VWAP, AVWAP Bands & Deviation [LunqFX]Most anchored VWAP tools make you drag the anchor by hand, and it goes stale the moment structure changes. This one places the anchor automatically at confirmed swing pivots, wraps it in volume weighted standard deviation bands, hangs the leg's volume profile off the right edge, and then measures whether those bands are being respected on the symbol in front of you.
The annotated charts below explain the script's output element by element.
❶ AUTO ANCHORED VWAP
An anchored VWAP is only meaningful from a point that mattered. Anchor it at an arbitrary bar and it describes nothing; anchor it where the market last turned and it becomes the average price everyone trading THIS leg is carrying — which is exactly the level they defend.
The anchor is placed at confirmed swing pivots, with two guards that matter more than they sound:
▸ MINIMUM LEG — a fresh pivot cannot take over until the running leg has had room to form. Without that rule a cluster of pivots chops the curve into stubs and the VWAP never describes anything. ▸ MAXIMUM LEG — a leg that outlives its usefulness resets rather than growing into a whole-history average.
Session, weekly and monthly anchors are available for traders who prefer calendar anchoring.
❷ STANDARD DEVIATION BANDS
Around the anchored VWAP the script draws volume weighted standard deviation bands at three depths, filled as a gradient so distance from fair value is readable without measuring. Three details make them behave:
▸ WARM-UP — at the anchor the deviation is zero by definition, so the first bars of every leg would draw as a collapsing funnel. Those bars are still measured; they are simply not drawn. ▸ MINIMUM WIDTH — an ATR floor stops the bands pinching shut during dead stretches. ▸ DISPLAY SMOOTHING — the deviation path is box-filtered for drawing only. The VWAP itself and every statistic use the raw values, so nothing you act on is smoothed.
❸ VOLUME FLOW
Each bar's participation is drawn as fine texture reaching inward from the band edges: buy pressure rises from the lower edge, sell pressure falls from the upper one, split by where the bar closed inside its own range. The bands are the baseline, so the leg's pressure reads along the structure instead of on a separate pane.
❹ VOLUME PROFILE OF THE LEG
At the right edge the script hangs the volume distribution of the whole leg, split buy against sell, with a seam line at the join and a traced outline. Each bar is binned against its OWN slice of the channel rather than a fixed price grid, so a sloping leg does not smear the distribution — a detail most profile overlays skip, and the reason the shape stays honest on a trending market.
❺ BAND REACTION STATISTICS
Bands tell you where price is. They do not tell you what that has meant here. So the script measures it: for every touch of the chosen band inside the current leg it checks whether price returned to the VWAP within your window, and reports the share that did, together with the number of touches.
That single number changes how the same picture is read. A leg where touches of the upper band came back to VWAP most of the time is mean-reverting, and the band is a fade. A leg where they did not is trending, and the same touch is continuation. Samples too small to conclude anything from are marked with a tilde rather than presented as a result.
❻ WHAT YOU SEE ON THE CHART
▸ Dashed vertical line with the ANCHOR badge — where the current leg begins. ▸ Three teal bands below and three red bands above, filled as a gradient — deviation depth from the VWAP. ▸ Dark line through the middle — the anchored VWAP itself. ▸ Fine ticks along the band edges — per-bar buy and sell participation. ▸ Horizontal rows at the right edge — the leg's volume profile, teal for buy, red for sell. ▸ Panel — side of the VWAP, distance in σ with a position ruler, the VWAP and band levels, and the reaction statistics.
❼ HOW TO TRADE IT
1 — Read the header. Above or below the anchored VWAP is the leg's bias; the σ figure is how stretched price is right now. 2 — Check the reaction row before deciding what a band touch means. High return rate means the bands are fades. Low return rate means they are continuation. 3 — Use the VWAP as the leg's fair value. Pullbacks into it in the direction of the leg are the cleanest entries this tool produces. 4 — Use the volume profile to find where the leg actually traded. Thin rows are areas price passed through quickly and tends to pass through quickly again. 5 — Watch the anchor. A new anchor means structure turned and the previous leg's levels stopped applying.
❽ NON-REPAINTING
This is the part that separates an anchored VWAP from a rolling regression channel, and it is worth being precise about. The anchor is a CONFIRMED pivot and only ever moves forward. A VWAP is cumulative, so once a bar closes its contribution to the average is fixed forever — every band value already printed stays exactly where it is. Nothing is recalculated behind you. Every statistic is built from closed bars only.
SETTINGS
▸ Anchor — anchor mode (swing pivot, session, week, month), pivot length, minimum and maximum leg. ▸ Bands — three deviation depths, warm-up bars hidden, minimum width in ATR, display smoothing, gradient fill and VWAP line toggles. ▸ Volume Flow — texture height in ATR and thickness. ▸ Volume Profile — rows, width, thickness, seam and outline toggle. ▸ Band Reaction — which band counts as a touch, the reaction window, optional touch markers. ▸ Visuals — candle colouring, anchor marker, dashboard position.
ALERTS — upper band touch, lower band touch, VWAP reclaimed, VWAP lost, and new anchor. All fire on closed bars only.
WHY THESE PARTS ARE ONE SCRIPT
They describe one object at four resolutions. The anchor defines the leg; the standard deviation bands measure dispersion inside it; the flow and the volume profile show where its volume actually went; and the reaction statistics say whether that structure is being respected. Take the anchor away and the VWAP averages a period nobody traded as a unit. Take the profile away and the bands float above an unknown distribution. Take the statistics away and the bands become decoration you have to interpret by feel. None of them stands alone, which is why they ship together.
Works on any symbol with volume — forex, metals, indices, crypto and stocks — on intraday and higher timeframes alike. Symbols without real volume data will report a flat profile.
This indicator is an educational market-analysis tool, not financial advice. The reaction statistics describe the recorded historical behaviour of the current leg on the loaded chart; past behaviour does not predict future results. Always confirm with your own analysis and manage your risk. Indicator

Volume Profile Session EditionThe native TradingView Volume Profile does not work on CFD/OTC
brokers like EasyMarkets, OANDA, Pepperstone, and others — because
these feeds provide zero or no real volume data.
This indicator solves that problem by automatically fetching volume
from a liquid proxy symbol that matches your chart instrument.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HOW IT WORKS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The indicator detects your chart symbol and automatically selects
a real-volume proxy from a regulated exchange:
- (60+ instruments mapped automatically)
If no proxy is found, it falls back to bar range (High–Low) so
the profile always renders regardless of the instrument.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT YOU GET
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔷 Session Volume Profile
A classic histogram anchored to each trading session. Bars are
split into bullish (up) and bearish (down) volume side by side.
The Value Area is highlighted in separate colors for quick reading.
🔷 POC — Point of Control
The price level with the highest traded volume in the session.
Extends to the right edge of the chart on the current session.
🔷 VAH / VAL — Value Area High & Low
Upper and lower boundaries of the configurable Value Area
(default 70% of total volume).
🔷 Info Panel
Shows the active proxy symbol, current session POC, VAH and VAL
prices updated in real time.

SESSION MODES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Day mode (default)
One profile per calendar day (UTC). Resets automatically at
midnight. Works on any intraday timeframe.
Candles mode
One profile every N bars. Fully configurable — examples:
• 15m chart → 96 candles = 1 full day
• 15m chart → 32 candles = 8 hours (London session)

EVA Ai + POC, Liquidity & Smart Money 1.4.1 RU💎 EVA Ai + POC, Liquidity & Smart Money 1.4.1 RU — РЫНОК, РАЗЛОЖЕННЫЙ ПО ЦЕНАМ
Обычный объём под графиком отвечает на вопрос «сколько проторговали за свечу». EVA Volume Profile PRO показывает другое: на каких ценах проходил основной объём, где рынок принимал стоимость, где оставались пустоты и к каким зонам цена может вернуться за ликвидностью.
На одном графике собраны Volume Profile, POC, Value Area, VAH, VAL, HVN, LVN, направленный объём и подтверждённые пулы BSL/SSL. Без сплошной заливки экрана. Профиль остаётся читаемым даже рядом со свечами, а AUTOPILOT подстраивает детализацию под таймфрейм и доступный объём данных.
Это инструмент для анализа аукциона и ликвидности. Он не рисует готовые LONG/SHORT-входы и не подменяет риск-менеджмент. Его задача — показать структуру рынка до принятия решения.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚡ ЧТО РАССЧИТЫВАЕТ ИНДИКАТОР
• Volume Profile — горизонтальное распределение объёма по ценам.
• POC — цена с максимальным проторгованным объёмом.
• Value Area — диапазон, где сосредоточена выбранная доля объёма; стандартная цель — 70%.
• VAH и VAL — верхняя и нижняя границы зоны стоимости.
• HVN — узлы высокого объёма, где рынок принимал цену и часто переходил в баланс.
• LVN — узлы низкого объёма, через которые цена обычно проходит быстрее либо резко отказывается от уровня.
• Up/Down Volume — направленный контекст объёма по свечам младшего таймфрейма.
• BSL/SSL — подтверждённые buy-side и sell-side liquidity pools около равных swing high / swing low.
• Delta — разница между классифицированным Up Volume и Down Volume внутри выбранного диапазона.
• Nearest Liquidity — ближайшие BSL/SSL, расстояние до них в ATR, качество Q и текущее состояние.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧭 КАК ЧИТАТЬ ПРОФИЛЬ НА ГРАФИКЕ
1. Начните с положения цены относительно Value Area
Цена между VAL и VAH находится в зоне принятой стоимости. Здесь рынок чаще вращается вокруг POC, тестирует HVN и возвращается к балансу.
Закрепление выше VAH показывает выход из справедливой стоимости вверх. Закрепление ниже VAL — выход вниз. Сам пробой ещё не является входом: смотрите, удерживается ли граница после ретеста и подтверждает ли движение объём.
2. Найдите POC
Яркая розовая линия POC отмечает цену максимальной концентрации объёма. Это главный центр текущего профиля и сильный рыночный магнит.
Если цена находится далеко от POC, рынок может продолжить поиск новой стоимости или вернуться к прежнему балансу. Если цена торгуется около POC, преимущество сторон обычно слабее — здесь чаще появляется шум и двусторонняя торговля.
3. Прочитайте форму гистограммы
Чем длиннее горизонтальная строка, тем больше объёма прошло на этой цене. Короткая строка означает низкое принятие цены.
Основной профиль выполнен в спокойной нейтральной палитре. Тонкая neon-рейка у якоря показывает доминирующую сторону каждой строки: бирюзовый цвет — преимущество Up Volume, розовый — Down Volume. Яркость растёт вместе с дисбалансом.
4. Используйте HVN как зоны принятия
Синие HVN-зоны отмечают локальные пики объёма. Здесь цена может замедляться, формировать консолидацию, повторно тестировать уровень или использовать его как поддержку/сопротивление.
HVN не исчезает после касания. Это уже проторгованная структура рынка, а не ожидающий стоп-пул.
5. Используйте LVN как коридоры непринятия
Янтарные LVN-зоны показывают провалы объёма. Внутри таких участков рынок провёл мало времени, поэтому движение может ускоряться. На границе LVN также возможен резкий отказ, если цена не получает нового объёмного подтверждения.
LVN тоже не удаляется после первого теста: он остаётся частью рассчитанного профиля и перестраивается вместе с выбранным диапазоном.
6. Проверьте BSL и SSL
BSL формируется над подтверждёнными равными swing high — там часто концентрируются стопы продавцов и ликвидность покупателей. SSL строится под равными swing low, где может находиться ликвидность продавцов.
Зона появляется только после подтверждения минимум двух сопоставимых экстремумов и прохождения фильтра качества. В Q учитываются относительный объём, rejection wick и расстояние между подтверждениями.
Состояния зон:
• FRESH — подтверждённая зона ещё не тестировалась.
• TESTED — цена вошла в диапазон, но не прошла его полностью; зона становится визуально слабее.
• OFF — пул остаётся в расчёте, но находится за рабочим ATR-радиусом и временно скрыт с графика.
• SWEPT — дальняя граница пройдена; зона считается собранной и полностью удаляется.
7. Сверьтесь с Delta
Положительная Delta означает, что внутри всего выбранного профиля больше объёма классифицировано как Up Volume. Отрицательная — преимущество Down Volume.
Delta относится ко всему диапазону, а не к последней свече. Поэтому текущая красная свеча может находиться внутри положительного профиля — противоречия здесь нет.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📊 ЧТО ПОКАЗЫВАЕТ ПАНЕЛЬ EVA LIQUIDITY
• Autopilot — активна ли автоматическая адаптация.
• Auction — цена внутри Value Area, выше VAH или ниже VAL.
• Range — Visible Range, Session HD или Fixed Range.
• Source — свечи графика либо выбранный Lower Timeframe.
• Rows × Step — количество строк и фактический ценовой шаг.
• Up / Down — доли направленного объёма.
• Delta — суммарный дисбаланс диапазона.
• POC / dist — POC и расстояние текущей цены до него.
• VAL — VAH — границы справедливой стоимости.
• Nearest BSL / SSL — ближайший пул, расстояние в ATR, Q и статус.
• Nearest HVN / LVN — ближайшие объёмные узлы.
• Structure — верхняя, нижняя или сбалансированная концентрация профиля.
• Status — developing-профиль, закрытые свечи либо безопасный fallback источника данных.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚙️ ТРИ РЕЖИМА VOLUME PROFILE
VISIBLE RANGE
Профиль рассчитывается только по свечам, видимым на экране. Изменили масштаб или прокрутили график — расчёт автоматически обновился. Это основной режим для быстрого анализа текущей рыночной структуры.
SESSION HD
Строит отдельный профиль торговой сессии. Подходит для intraday, day trading и поиска дневных POC, VAH/VAL, HVN/LVN.
FIXED RANGE
Позволяет исследовать конкретный импульс, накопление, боковик или участок от пробоя до текущей цены. Начало и конец задаются временными маркерами.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🚀 БЫСТРЫЕ СЦЕНАРИИ ЧТЕНИЯ
БАЛАНС
Цена внутри Value Area и рядом с POC/HVN. Рынок принимает стоимость. В таком режиме логичнее ждать реакции от границ VA, а не преследовать движение в центре профиля.
ПОИСК ЦЕНЫ ВВЕРХ
Цена удерживается выше VAH, профиль расширяется вверх, Delta поддерживает покупателей, а впереди находится BSL. Контекст бычий, пока возврат под VAH не отменил выход из стоимости.
ПОИСК ЦЕНЫ ВНИЗ
Цена закрепляется ниже VAL, Down Volume усиливается, а ближайшая SSL расположена ниже. Медвежий контекст сохраняется, пока цена не вернулась внутрь Value Area.
БЫСТРОЕ ПРОХОЖДЕНИЕ
Цена входит в LVN без встречного объёма. Внутри низкообъёмного коридора движение может ускориться до следующего HVN, границы VA или активного liquidity pool.
СБОР ЛИКВИДНОСТИ
Цена проходит дальнюю границу BSL/SSL, пул удаляется, затем рынок показывает принятие либо отказ. Оценивайте реакцию свечей, объём и положение относительно VAH/VAL — сам sweep не гарантирует разворот.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧠 AUTOPILOT И ТОЧНОСТЬ РАСЧЁТА
AUTOPILOT автоматически выбирает младший таймфрейм, плотность строк, пороги HVN/LVN, параметры pivot и минимальное качество liquidity pools. Developing-профиль обновляется по мере поступления новых данных.
Для более точного распределения объёма индикатор может использовать Lower Timeframe OHLCV. Если младшие данные недоступны или неполны, система переключается на полный набор свечей текущего графика без скрытой обрезки диапазона.
EVA использует объём, который предоставляет источник данных выбранного инструмента. Для Forex это часто tick volume. Pine Script не даёт исторический биржевой стакан и полноценный bid/ask footprint, поэтому индикатор не выдумывает такие данные: направленный объём рассчитывается по движению свечей младшего таймфрейма.
Подтверждённые BSL/SSL создаются по закрытым pivot-событиям и не дорисовываются задним числом на более ранних барах. Visible Range и developing-профиль закономерно пересчитываются при изменении диапазона или поступлении новой свечи — это нормальная работа динамического Volume Profile.

💎 EVA VOLUME PROFILE PRO — SEE WHERE THE MARKET ACCEPTED PRICE
Volume bars below a chart tell you when activity happened. EVA Volume Profile PRO shows where it happened.
The indicator maps traded volume across price, calculates POC and the Value Area, detects HVN/LVN structure, tracks directional volume and builds confirmed BSL/SSL liquidity pools. The result is a clean auction map for traders who use Volume Profile, Smart Money concepts, market structure and liquidity analysis — without flooding the candles with heavy color.
Use it for stocks, crypto and Forex, from scalping and intraday trading to swing analysis. AUTOPILOT adapts the lower timeframe, row density, node thresholds and liquidity-quality filters to the active chart.
This is a market-reading tool, not a LONG/SHORT signal generator. Its job is to show where value sits, where price may accelerate and where confirmed liquidity remains active before you build a trade plan.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚡ CORE MARKET MAP
• Volume Profile — horizontal volume distribution by price.
• POC — the price row with the highest calculated volume.
• Value Area — the price range containing the selected share of total volume; 70% is the standard target.
• VAH / VAL — upper and lower Value Area boundaries.
• HVN — high-volume acceptance nodes where price may slow, balance or retest.
• LVN — low-volume rejection corridors where price can travel quickly.
• Up / Down Volume — directional volume context classified from lower-timeframe candles.
• Delta — the difference between classified Up Volume and Down Volume across the profile.
• BSL / SSL — confirmed buy-side and sell-side liquidity pools around equal swing highs and lows.
• Liquidity Quality Q — a quality score using relative volume, rejection wick and spacing between confirmations.
• Nearest Targets — closest BSL, SSL, HVN and LVN with ATR distance and live state.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🗺 HOW TO READ THE CHART
START WITH VALUE
Price between VAL and VAH is trading inside accepted value. This is usually a two-sided auction: POC attracts price, HVNs can hold rotation and the center of the profile often produces more noise than its edges.
Holding above VAH signals price discovery above value. Holding below VAL signals price discovery below value. A single breakout is not enough on its own — watch whether the boundary survives a retest and whether directional volume supports the move.
READ THE POC
The bright magenta POC marks the highest-volume price in the selected range. It acts as the profile’s center of gravity.
Price close to POC is usually balanced. Price far from POC may be building a new area of value or preparing a rotation back toward the old one. Context decides which path is active.
READ THE PROFILE SHAPE
Long horizontal rows represent heavier participation. Short rows show low acceptance.
The main histogram uses a restrained neutral palette. A thin neon rail at the profile anchor shows row-level direction: teal for Up Volume dominance, pink for Down Volume dominance. Stronger imbalance produces a brighter rail without recoloring the entire histogram.
HVN — ACCEPTANCE
Blue HVN zones mark local volume peaks. These are areas where the market previously agreed on price. Expect slower movement, consolidation, support/resistance behavior or repeated tests.
An HVN does not disappear after a touch. It represents completed volume structure, not uncollected stops.
LVN — REJECTION AND FAST TRAVEL
Amber LVN zones mark local volume valleys. Price spent less time there, so movement may accelerate through the corridor until it reaches the next HVN, Value Area boundary or active liquidity pool.
LVNs remain part of the calculated profile and update when the selected range changes.
BSL / SSL — CONFIRMED LIQUIDITY
BSL appears above confirmed equal swing highs, where short stops and breakout liquidity can cluster. SSL appears below confirmed equal swing lows, where long stops and sell-side liquidity may sit.
A pool requires at least two comparable confirmed pivots and must pass the adaptive Q filter. The script does not print every high and low as “liquidity.”
Liquidity states:
• FRESH — confirmed and not yet tested.
• TESTED — price entered the zone without completing the full sweep; the zone fades.
• OFF — still calculated but outside the active ATR work radius, so it is hidden from the chart.
• SWEPT — price cleared the far boundary; every drawing for that pool is deleted.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚙️ THREE VOLUME PROFILE MODES
VISIBLE RANGE
Calculates only the candles currently visible on the screen. Zoom or scroll and the profile rebuilds around the market structure you are actually studying.
SESSION HD
Creates a separate profile for each selected trading session. Useful for intraday POC, daily Value Area, opening rotations and session-based support/resistance.
FIXED RANGE
Measures one specific impulse, consolidation, breakout leg or accumulation range between two adjustable time markers.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎯 PRACTICAL READING SCENARIOS
BALANCED AUCTION
Price is inside Value Area and close to POC or an HVN. The market is accepting price. Chasing the middle of the profile offers less structural clarity than waiting for a reaction at VAH, VAL or a nearby liquidity zone.
BULLISH PRICE DISCOVERY
Price holds above VAH, directional volume remains constructive and BSL is active overhead. The bullish auction remains valid while price accepts above value; a return below VAH weakens that read.
BEARISH PRICE DISCOVERY
Price holds below VAL, Down Volume expands and an SSL pool remains below. The bearish auction stays active until price regains the Value Area.
LVN TRAVEL
Price enters an LVN without opposing participation. The low-volume corridor may provide a faster route toward the next HVN, POC, VA boundary or liquidity target.
LIQUIDITY SWEEP
Price clears the far edge of BSL or SSL and the pool disappears. The next question is acceptance or rejection: check candle response, volume, Delta and location relative to VAH/VAL. A sweep alone does not guarantee reversal.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧠 AUTOPILOT, LOWER TIMEFRAME DATA AND INTEGRITY
AUTOPILOT adjusts lower-timeframe selection, row density, HVN/LVN thresholds, pivot sensitivity, pool width, minimum Q and the visible ATR radius. The developing profile updates as new confirmed microbars arrive.
Lower-timeframe OHLCV improves price allocation inside each chart candle. If the requested intrabar history is unavailable or incomplete, EVA falls back to the complete chart-candle sample rather than silently using a truncated profile.
The script uses the volume supplied by the active symbol’s data feed. On some markets, especially Forex, that may be tick volume. Pine Script cannot access a historical exchange order book or full bid/ask footprint, so EVA does not fabricate either one. The directional rail is an order-flow-style approximation derived from lower-timeframe candle direction.
Confirmed BSL/SSL pools are created from closed pivot events and are not backfilled onto earlier bars. Visible Range and developing profiles recalculate when the viewport or incoming data changes — expected behavior for a dynamic Volume Profile, not a historical trading signal being rewritten.

Indicator
EVA Ai+ Auto Chart Patterns - Price Action & Trading Signals EN 🧬 EVA AI Chart Pattern Scanner is an advanced price action and technical analysis indicator designed to automatically detect high-value chart patterns directly on the TradingView chart.
Instead of manually searching through hundreds of candles, the indicator continuously analyzes market structure, confirmed pivot points, volatility, pattern geometry, volume behavior and breakout conditions.
The result is a clean visual map of developing and confirmed trading setups.
🔍 PATTERNS DETECTED
The indicator automatically identifies:
• Bull Flags and Bear Flags
• Bullish and Bearish Pennants
• Symmetrical Triangles
• Ascending Triangles
• Descending Triangles
• Rising Wedges
• Falling Wedges
• Double Bottom patterns
• Double Top patterns
• Head and Shoulders
• Inverse Head and Shoulders
Both local MICRO patterns and larger MACRO market structures can be detected.
⚡ INTELLIGENT PATTERN SCANNING
EVA AI does not rely on one fixed pattern length.
The scanner evaluates multiple market windows and compares available structures by geometry, compression, trend context, pole strength, volatility and overall pattern quality.
This adaptive approach allows the indicator to detect compact intraday formations as well as larger swing trading patterns.
When two independent structures exist at the same time, the indicator can display both instead of hiding one valid setup behind another.
📐 PREMIUM CHART VISUALIZATION
Developing patterns are displayed directly on the chart with projected boundaries and optional transparent pattern zones.
Confirmed patterns become brighter after a valid closed-candle breakout.
Depending on the detected structure, the chart may display:
• Pattern boundaries
• Pivot point labels
• Neckline levels
• Calculated apex projections
• LONG or SHORT breakout labels
• Pattern quality score
• MICRO or MACRO classification
• Measured price targets
• Target guide lines
Every pattern family has its own visual style and color, making complex market structure easier to read.
🎯 CLOSED-CANDLE BREAKOUT CONFIRMATION
LONG and SHORT signals are generated only after the required breakout has been confirmed on a closed candle.
The script does not use lookahead, future market data or historical signal backfilling.
This means a confirmed signal is fixed on the candle where the breakout condition is actually validated rather than being drawn retrospectively on an earlier candle.
📊 PATTERN QUALITY FILTER
Every detected structure receives an internal quality score from 0 to 100.
The score evaluates factors such as:
• Pattern geometry
• Price compression
• Strength of the preceding movement
• Pattern proportions
• Pivot symmetry
• Breakout candle strength
• Volume behavior
• MICRO or MACRO structure priority
Separate quality thresholds are available for developing patterns and confirmed trading signals.
Raise the threshold to receive fewer but more selective setups. Lower it to increase pattern coverage.
📈 VOLUME AND BREAKOUT FILTERS
Optional volume filters can be used to evaluate consolidation volume and breakout activity.
Traders can choose whether volume should contribute to the quality score or become a strict confirmation requirement.
This makes the indicator adaptable to stocks, cryptocurrency, forex, futures, indices and other liquid markets.
🧠 REVERSAL PATTERN ENGINE
Double Top, Double Bottom, Head and Shoulders and Inverse Head and Shoulders patterns are analyzed through confirmed pivot sequences.
The engine evaluates:
• Distance between pattern points
• Relative height and depth
• Time symmetry
• Shoulder proportions
• Head dominance
• Neckline slope
• Prior directional price movement
• Breakout candle body
• Pattern lifetime
A separate MACRO pivot stream helps detect large reversal structures that may otherwise be hidden by smaller market noise.
🔺 TRIANGLE AND WEDGE DETECTOR
Triangles and wedges are selected from multiple pivot combinations rather than only the most recent four turning points.
The scanner compares slope direction, boundary convergence, initial pattern height, final compression and projected apex distance.
This improves the detection of larger chart formations while filtering weak or geometrically invalid structures.
🛠 FLEXIBLE SETTINGS
The indicator includes detailed controls for:
• Minimum and maximum pattern length
• Pivot sensitivity
• MICRO and MACRO pattern detection
• Pattern quality thresholds
• Breakout confirmation buffer
• Breakout candle strength
• Volume confirmation
• Pattern projection length
• Target calculation
• Pattern colors and transparency
• Maximum number of displayed structures
• Signal cooldown
• Developing pattern visibility
Default settings are balanced for general chart analysis, while experienced traders can create stricter profiles for scalping, day trading or swing trading.
💡 HOW TO USE
1. Add the indicator to a standard candlestick chart.
2. Watch the developing structure and its projected boundaries.
3. Check the pattern type, direction and quality score.
4. Wait for a confirmed closed-candle breakout.
5. Use the calculated target as a technical reference.
6. Confirm the setup with trend direction, liquidity, support and resistance, volume and personal risk management.
The indicator can be used as a chart pattern scanner, breakout indicator, price action tool, market structure detector and technical analysis assistant.
It is suitable for traders working with crypto, forex, stocks, futures and indices across intraday and higher timeframes.

Volume DNA: Heatmap [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Volume DNA: Heatmap is an advanced technical indicator created by BigBeluga to decode institutional volume and price action dynamics using market microstructure principles. Traditional volume indicators often look at volume in isolation, failing to account for the efficiency or inefficiency of price movement. In order to provide a solution to this problem, this indicator combines rolling volume Z-scores with high-low price spread Z-scores, classifying every single bar into distinct institutional signatures—such as Absorption, Effort, Exhaustion, and Stagnation.
The indicator aims to visualize institutional accumulation, distribution, and exhaustion points directly on the chart. The core element of its calculation involves tracking volume and spread deviations against rolling means defined as:
volZ = (volume - volMean) / volStd
spreadZ = (spread - spreadMean) / spreadStd
where volMean and spreadMean are moving averages over lookback lengths volLengthInput and spreadLengthInput , and volStd and spreadStd represent standard deviations. Higher values of volThreshInput and spreadThreshInput allow the indicator to filter out random market noise and isolate major institutional footprints.
🔵 FEATURES
The system utilizes a multi-layered matrix structure to provide actionable market intelligence:
1 — DNA Engine & Classification Matrix
Absorption ( ABS ): Triggered by high volume and narrow spread via highVol and narrowSpread , signaling institutional limit orders absorbing market flow.
Effort Bullish / Bearish ( EFF+ / EFF- ): Triggered by high volume and wide spread via highVol and wideSpread , signaling aggressive buying or selling pressure driving trend continuation.
Exhaustion ( EXH ) & Stagnation ( STG ): Tracks low volume relative to price spreads to identify thin liquidity moves or equilibrium consolidation phases.
2 — Visual Enhancements & Ghost Glows
Ghost Glow Effect: Renders a semi-transparent wider candle behind classified DNA bars using plotcandle(showGlowBar ? bodymax + glowExpand : na, ...) to visually distinguish key events from normal price action.
Liquidity Clouds: Draws transparent box zones over Absorption bars extending cloudExtendInput bars to the right, marking where institutional limit orders may be resting.
3 — Real-Time Barcode Tape & Statistics Tables
DNA Barcode Tape: Displays a vertical heatmap table on the chart showing the DNA type and volume of the last tapeRowsInput bars as a real-time institutional activity tape.
Stats Panel Table: Summarizes current bar status, Volume Z-Scores via str.tostring(volZ, "#.##") , and Spread Z-Scores for instant quantitative feedback.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Apart from the basic visualization of institutional volume signatures, this tool can also act in alternative ways to support decision-making:
Spot Institutional Absorption: Look for ABS candles and their accompanying Liquidity Cloud zones to identify potential support or resistance levels where large market participants are absorbing flow.
Ride Trend Continuations via Effort: Monitor EFF+ and EFF- signal shapes (where size and color intensity scale with volume Z-scores) to confirm aggressive momentum driving price in the direction of the breakout.
Anticipate Reversals with Exhaustion: Watch for EXH signals where price moves on thin liquidity, signaling that a current trend may be running out of fuel and nearing a pullback or reversal.
🔵 NOTES
Why this implementation is unique:
It merges volume and price spread analytics using statistical Z-scores rather than arbitrary thresholds, offering an objective look at market efficiency.
The multi-table interface provides both historical sequencing (Barcode Tape) and real-time metric tracking without crowding the main price action view.
The script is fully optimized for Pine Script version 6, utilizing high-performance array management (`var array dnaHistory = array.new(tapeRowsInput, 0)`) for smooth execution across extensive historical data.
Note: The indicator relies on rolling standard deviation calculations; initial chart loads require enough bars to populate the lookback window accurately.

Smart Money Volume Absorption Signals I EonMetricsSmart Money Volume Absorption Signals
Volume Absorption marks a specific situation as a LONG or SHORT setup, with an entry, a stop and two targets. But instead of only printing an arrow and leaving you to reconstruct what happened, it tracks that setup through four stages and shows you exactly how far along it is — how many conditions are met, which one is still missing, how many bars are left before the setup is discarded, and what the same sequence has already done on the history your chart has loaded.
🔶 THE SITUATION IT TRACKS
A bar trades far more volume than its own recent normal, and then closes at the wrong end of its own range. Heavy participation that failed to pay the side that pushed: effort without result. The direction is set against the side that was absorbed — a heavy bar closing in the bottom third of its range is a short premise, one closing in the top third is a long premise.
One thing has to be said plainly, because it decides how much weight this premise deserves: total volume cannot tell you who traded. It cannot separate buyers from sellers. What this gate actually measures is heavy participation combined with a failure to hold the direction the bar travelled. The absorption reading is an interpretation of that pattern, not a measurement of order flow. If you want that distinction to matter less, the remaining three gates are where the work is done.
Absorption on its own happens constantly and most of it leads nowhere. So the tool requires three further confirmations, in order, before it marks anything.
🔶 THE FOUR GATES
G1 · ABSORPTION — bar volume lands in an extreme percentile of its own recent history while the bar closes in the far third of its own range. This gate fixes the direction and nothing later can change it. It also plants the invalidation anchor at that bar's extreme. Optionally the direction must agree with a slow trend filter.
G2 · REACTION — a following bar closes in the direction G1 set. The absorption produced something instead of merely stalling.
G3 · EXPANSION — a candle body in the top percentile of its own recent history, pointing the setup's way. That candle's OPEN becomes the origin level, and the origin level is where entry would be.
G4 · HOLD — price returns to the origin level and closes without violating it. Only now does the signal print, on bar close.
This is a retest model, not a breakout model, and the consequence is worth stating before you use it. A setup whose expansion runs away and never comes back to the origin level will never complete, no matter how far the move goes. You will see setups sit at 3/4 while price travels past the drawn targets, and then expire. That is the design working as intended — the entry is the retest — but if you want a tool that chases the move instead, this is not that tool.
The dashboard reads: which stage the setup is in, the direction, which gate is being waited on, the expiry countdown, the entry and stop levels, and the record of every completed setup on the loaded history.
🔶 ORIGINALITY
Five design decisions separate this from a stack of conditions with an AND between them.
Percentiles instead of ATR multiples. A fixed "1.5 × ATR" or "2 × average volume" threshold means something different in a trending market than in a compressed one, so it has to be re-tuned per symbol and per period. Every threshold here is a percentile rank against the instrument's own recent history — "top 30% of the last 200 bars" keeps its meaning when volatility changes, without tuning.
Gates do not add up to a score. Each gate is a separate class of evidence and none substitutes for another. Three expansion bars in a row are still 1/4, not 3/4. A weighted-sum model can be outvoted by one loud condition repeating itself; this one cannot. There is deliberately no confidence percentage anywhere in this script — with four binary gates in a fixed sequence, the only honest information is how many of them have filled, and dressing that up as a percentage would add precision that does not exist.
The setup dies on its own. Every tracked setup carries an invalidation anchor (a close beyond the absorption bar's extreme) and a bar countdown that resets at each gate advance. When either fires, the setup is discarded immediately — it does not linger until an opposite signal replaces it, and it does not quietly stay on the books.
One setup at a time. While a completed setup is still resolving toward its target or its stop, a new setup will not complete — it waits at 3/4 and may still fire later if the first one resolves in time, or expire if it does not. This exists so that what the dashboard counts is what a person following the tool could actually have taken, one position at a time, rather than an overlapping stack of positions nobody could hold.
It shows its own record. The last two rows of the dashboard walk every completed setup on the chart you are looking at, bar by bar, and count which level price reached first — Target 1 or the stop. The stop is checked before the target, so a bar that spans both counts against the setup, and the bar the signal prints on is not counted at all. That number is whatever it is. It is not a claim, it is not tuned to flatter, and it will read differently on every symbol and timeframe you load — which is exactly the point. You are meant to check it on YOUR instrument before deciding what the tool is worth to you, instead of taking anyone's word for it. Most signal tools do not show this. That is a choice they made, and this is a different one.
🔶 HOW IT IS CALCULATED
Both percentile ranks are ta.percentrank() over one configurable window — one on bar volume (G1), one on the absolute candle body (G3). The close position is (close − low) / (high − low), so it describes where the bar finished inside its own range rather than relative to any external level.
The optional trend filter is a plain exponential moving average of the closing price on the chart's own timeframe, used as a slow-trend proxy: long setups are only allowed above it, short setups only below it. Set its length to 0 to switch it off. There are no higher-timeframe data requests anywhere in this script.
Entry is the open of the expansion bar. The stop is the absorption bar's extreme, plus an optional buffer in ticks. Both targets are multiples of that entry-to-stop distance, so they scale with the setup instead of with a fixed price amount. Target 1 is the level the record row measures against; Target 2 is drawn for reference only.
Every gate is evaluated and latched on confirmed bars only. There is no lookahead and there are no forward-looking references. A filled gate is never un-filled retroactively; the live bar can only be rejected, never rewritten. A bar that would satisfy two gates at once advances the setup by exactly one step — each gate has to be paid for with its own bar.
The chart geometry is redrawn from scratch on the last bar rather than accumulated, so what you see on the chart is always the setup the dashboard is describing, and closed setups do not leave debris behind.
🔶 ALERTS
Six conditions: setup reached 2/4, setup reached 3/4, signal LONG, signal SHORT, setup expired, setup invalidated.
The staged alerts follow from the same idea as the meter: being told a setup is one gate away is more useful than only being told after it is over.
🔶 HOW TO USE
1. Read the record row before anything else. Load your instrument and your timeframe and see what it says there. If it does not convince you, that is the tool telling you honestly that it is not for that market.
2. Check the sample size in the same row. A run of ten or twenty setups is an anecdote. The row flags small samples for exactly this reason.
3. Watch the meter, not the arrows. Most of the information is in setups that reach 2/4 or 3/4 and then die — that tells you what the market is refusing to do.
4. The stop sits at the absorption bar's extreme by default, which is tight. On fast intraday charts try the Stop Buffer input and watch how the record row responds.
5. The trend filter changes the population of setups substantially. Check the record row with it on and with it off on your own market before deciding which you prefer.
6. Set the 3/4 alert if you want to be at the chart before a setup completes rather than after.
🔶 SETTINGS
Volume (percentile window) · Gate Thresholds (G1 volume percentile, G1 close position, G3 body percentile, trend filter length, setup TTL) · Trade Levels (draw toggle, stop buffer in ticks, two R-multiple targets) · Display (dashboard and position, current-signal marker, all-past-signals marker, colors).
🔶 HONEST LIMITATIONS
Volume alone cannot be attributed to buyers or sellers. This tool reads total bar volume against the bar's close position. It does not know who traded, and it is not order-flow data. Treat the absorption premise as a reading of effort against result, which is what it is.
The volume itself is only as good as the feed. On spot forex and CFDs the exchange reports TICK volume rather than real traded volume, so the percentile ranks describe activity rather than quantity. On symbols with no volume data at all the gates cannot fill, and the dashboard says so in its top-right corner.
The retest requirement will cost you moves. As described above, setups that never return to the origin level expire unfilled even when price travels well beyond the drawn targets. This is structural, not a bug, and on strongly trending stretches it happens often.
Percentiles are relative to their window. After an abrupt change of volatility regime the ranks need a few dozen bars to catch up, and during that stretch the thresholds are still measuring the old regime.
The record row is an honest count, not a backtest. It assumes a fill at the exact entry price and it ignores fees, spread and slippage — all of which work against you in reality, and all of which matter a great deal when the outcome is close to even. A record that looks positive before costs can be negative after them. It also covers only the setups on the history your chart has loaded, which on intraday timeframes is a small sample.
Results vary far more between markets than between settings. The same script on the same timeframe can produce a very different record on two different symbols, and there is no timeframe this tool is generally "best" on. Any suggestion otherwise would be an invention. Check your own market.
This tool describes a sequence of conditions in price and volume. It does not forecast anything, it makes no claim about how often the sequence resolves favourably, and the drawn levels are the geometry of the setup, not a recommendation. It is published for analysis and education, it is not financial advice, and past behaviour of a pattern does not guarantee its future behaviour. Check the record on your own market, manage your own risk, and decide for yourself.

SNIPERS CANDLESSNIPERS CANDLES
SNIPERS CANDLES is an enhanced PVSRA volume analysis indicator that classifies candles according to relative trading activity while introducing a configurable Volume Participation Baseline for additional market participation analysis.
The indicator combines traditional PVSRA candle classification with an independent participation threshold, allowing traders to compare current trading activity against both recent market behaviour and configurable average volume levels within a single visual tool.
How the Indicator Works
The indicator analyses volume using the PVSRA methodology and classifies each candle into one of three participation levels.
Normal Volume
Represents standard market participation.
150% Volume
Highlights candles where volume exceeds approximately 150% of the recent average, indicating increasing market participation.
200% Volume (Vector Candle)
Highlights candles where volume exceeds approximately 200% of the recent average or produces exceptional volume relative to recent price range activity, identifying significant market participation.
Bullish and bearish candles are colour coded independently to preserve directional context.
Volume Participation Baseline
In addition to standard PVSRA candle classification, SNIPERS CANDLES includes a configurable Volume Participation Baseline.
The Participation Baseline calculates an average volume over a user-defined lookback period and applies an optional multiplier to create a dynamic participation threshold.
This allows traders to compare current trading activity against configurable average participation levels rather than relying solely on fixed PVSRA classifications.
The Participation Baseline is designed to complement the original PVSRA methodology by providing additional context when market participation transitions between below-average and above-average volume.
Instrument Override
For cryptocurrency markets, the indicator can automatically retrieve volume data from the equivalent Binance Perpetual Futures contract when available.
Where an equivalent perpetual contract is unavailable, the indicator automatically falls back to the chart's native volume data.
A manual symbol override is also included for users who wish to specify an alternative volume source.
Features
Traditional PVSRA candle classification
150% and 200% vector candle detection
Independent bullish and bearish candle colouring
Configurable Volume Participation Baseline
Adjustable Participation Baseline lookback period
Configurable Participation Baseline multiplier
Customisable Participation Baseline colour and width
Automatic Binance Perpetual Futures volume support
Manual volume source override
Main-chart candle colouring
Colour-coded volume histogram
Configurable alerts
Alert Conditions
The indicator includes alert conditions for:
Any Vector Candle
Any 200% Volume Peak Vector Candle
Any 150% Volume Rising Vector Candle
Bullish 200% Vector Candle
Bearish 200% Vector Candle
Bullish 150% Vector Candle
Bearish 150% Vector Candle
Volume Crossing the Participation Baseline
Volume Crossing Above the Participation Baseline
Volume Crossing Below the Participation Baseline
Participation Baseline alerts are designed to identify changes in market participation as trading activity transitions above or below the configured threshold.
Intended Use
SNIPERS CANDLES is designed to provide visual context for analysing:
Relative market participation
High-volume trading activity
Volume confirmation
Market momentum
Trend participation
Price action
Multi-timeframe analysis
The indicator is intended as an analytical tool and does not generate automatic buy or sell signals. It is designed to complement the trader's own market analysis, price action and risk management process.
Markets
The indicator can be applied to all TradingView-supported markets, including:
Forex
Indices
Commodities
Cryptocurrencies
Equities
When enabled, cryptocurrency markets can automatically utilise Binance Perpetual Futures volume where available.
Disclaimer
This open-source indicator is provided free of charge for educational and analytical purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any financial instrument. Users remain responsible for their own analysis, trading decisions and risk management.

Simple Volume Pro - HVE/HVY/HVQSimple Volume Pro — HVE/HVY/HVQ Liquidity & Volume Classifier
A volume analysis tool that goes beyond a plain volume histogram — it classifies every bar into meaningful categories (Pocket Pivots, Dry Volume, High Up/Down Volume, Power Volume) and automatically flags historic volume extremes directly on the chart, so you can spot institutional activity and liquidity shifts at a glance.
Core Features:
Color-coded volume bars — instantly distinguishes:
Blue: Pocket Pivot Volume (up-day volume exceeding the highest down-day volume of the recent lookback window) — a classic sign of institutional accumulation.
Green / Red: Up-day and down-day volumes exceeding the moving average — highlighting days with real participation.
Orange: Dry volume — days with abnormally low turnover, often preceding a breakout.
Grey: everything else, kept deliberately muted so the signal bars stand out.
Highest Volume tags (HVE / HVY / HVQ) — automatically labels the bar that set a new All-Time High (HVE), Yearly High (HVY), or Quarterly High (HVQ) in volume. Each bar shows only its highest-tier tag (an all-time high is never also double-labeled as a yearly/quarterly high), keeping the chart clean and easy to read at a glance.
Lowest Volume tags (Y / Q) — flags yearly and quarterly volume lows with a minimal single-letter marker sitting just above the bar, so unusually dry stretches are visible without cluttering the pane with numbers.
IPO / Listing Day Exclusion — a stock's first trading day (IPO listing, or a demerged entity's first session) often prints an abnormal volume spike that skews averages and can falsely trigger record-high tags for months afterward. This indicator lets you exclude that specific bar from all averages and highest/lowest-volume calculations, so your readings reflect genuine, sustained trading activity. Toggle it off anytime if you want the listing day included.
Bull Snort detection — flags high-conviction up days (3x+ average volume, closing near the highs) with an optional marker.
Liquidity Table — a compact on-chart table showing Average ₹ Volume (in Cr/Lakhs/Millions), Projected Relative Volume (extrapolated from the session's elapsed time), and 1-minute Liquidity — useful for quickly judging whether a stock can absorb your intended position size without excessive slippage.
Fully customizable — every color, label size, lookback period, and table position can be adjusted from the settings panel, along with an option to paint these signals directly onto price bars.
How to use it:
Use the HVE/HVY/HVQ tags to identify potential institutional accumulation zones — multiple high-volume tags clustering near a breakout or basing area are historically significant. Use the Y/Q dry-volume tags to spot low-liquidity consolidation phases that often precede expansion moves. The liquidity table helps size positions appropriately for the stock's actual tradability.
Note: This is a volume/liquidity reference tool, not a standalone buy/sell signal generator. Combine it with your own price action framework and risk management Indicator

Futures Volume + Delta - CFD ChartsA volume pane for CFD and cash-index charts that shows the REAL traded volume
of the matching futures contract — plus an estimated buy/sell delta and
absorption flags for effort-without-result bars.
What makes it original: CFD "volume" is broker tick count, not market
participation. This pane never uses it — every column is the exchange volume
of the auto-detected futures contract. The delta column is built from the
futures contract's own lower-timeframe candles (up-candle volume counts as
buying, down-candle volume as selling): the volume is real, only the side
attribution is an estimate, and it is labeled as such. Absorption flags then
combine both axes — volume percentile high while the price range percentile is
low — the candle-data footprint that hidden passive interest (iceberg-style
execution) leaves behind. Pine has no order book, so this is explicitly a
footprint proxy, not order-book detection.
How it works:
- The futures contract is auto-detected from the chart symbol (DAX/GER40 ->
FDAX, NAS100 -> NQ, US30 -> YM, UK100 -> Z, US500 -> ES), or set manually.
- Histogram = futures volume per chart bar; columns tint with bar direction,
a configurable MA marks the average.
- Delta = buy-minus-sell futures volume from 1/5/15-minute intrabars
(auto-selected by chart timeframe, manual override). Lower-timeframe
history is limited, so the delta reaches less far back than the histogram.
- Absorption flag (orange diamond + alert): volume percentile >= X and range
percentile <= Y over a rolling lookback — both thresholds adjustable.
- A status label confirms the active source and the delta resolution.
How to use it: read it like a footprint-lite. Rising price on rising futures
volume = participation confirms the move. An absorption diamond after an
extended run — heavy contracts traded, no price progress — marks where passive
interest is absorbing the aggression; combined with a one-sided delta it is a
common exhaustion/iceberg footprint. Delayed futures feeds confirm bars a few
minutes late; the historical picture is complete.

Anchored VWAP Engine [Quantum Algo]Anchored VWAP Engine
====================================================
🔶 OVERVIEW
Anchored VWAP Engine is a multi-stream anchored Volume Weighted Average Price indicator that removes the hardest part of trading with anchored VWAP: choosing the anchor. The engine runs up to seven independently anchored VWAP streams that place and reset their own anchors automatically — the week open (the default stream), session open, month open, confirmed swing highs and swing lows, the highest-volume bar in a lookback, and a liquidity-sweep anchor that re-anchors from the exact bar where a stop run occurred. On top of the streams it adds volume-weighted deviation bands, automatic confluence cluster zones where multiple streams converge, band-rejection signals, and a stability metric that names which VWAP the market is currently respecting most.
Out of the box the chart shows a single clean line: the week-anchored Volume Weighted Average Price with its deviation bands. Every additional stream is one checkbox away.
🔶 WHAT IS AN ANCHORED VWAP?
The Volume Weighted Average Price is the average price of an instrument weighted by traded volume — the closest public approximation of the average position price of everyone who transacted since a chosen starting point. An anchored VWAP starts that calculation from a meaningful event rather than an arbitrary date: a weekly open, a swing low, a high-volume climax bar. Price above an anchored VWAP means the average participant since that event is in profit; price returning to it often behaves as a decision level, because it is where the average position breaks even. The power of the tool depends entirely on where it is anchored — which is exactly what this engine automates.
🔶 WHY THIS SCRIPT IS ORIGINAL
1. Automatic multi-anchor engine. Seven streams anchor and re-anchor themselves from objectively defined events — no manual anchor placement, no stale anchors, no guessing.
2. The liquidity-sweep anchor. When a swing level is wicked through and rejected — a stop run — the sweep stream re-anchors from that exact bar and colors itself by implication: the accumulation tone after a sell-side sweep, the distribution tone after a buy-side raid. Averaging from the stop-run bar tracks the entry basis of the participants who engineered it. To our knowledge this anchor type has not been published before.
3. Exact swing anchoring. Swing-anchored streams rebuild their sums retroactively from the true pivot bar once the pivot confirms, so the calculation is mathematically identical to a VWAP hand-anchored on the swing itself — not started late at the confirmation bar.
4. Confluence clusters. When two or more active streams converge within an Average True Range tolerance, the engine draws a cluster zone and labels its strength. Multiple independent volume-weighted averages agreeing on one price is the strongest form of VWAP confluence, detected automatically.
5. The In Control metric. An exponentially decayed crossing-rate measures how cleanly price is respecting each stream; the dashboard names the stream currently in control. Users learn which anchor matters today instead of watching all of them equally.
6. True volume-weighted deviation bands. The bands are built from the volume-weighted variance of the primary stream — not a simple price standard deviation — at two configurable widths, with band-rejection signals printed as a single σ character whose full context lives in the hover tooltip, protected by a signal cooldown.
7. Quiet by default. One stream, one set of bands, capped signals, and a compact dashboard. The engine detects everything; the chart shows only what is asked of it.
🔶 HOW IT WORKS
Streams: Each stream maintains volume-weighted price and variance sums that reset on its anchor event — new week, new session, new month, a confirmed swing, a lookback volume record, or a qualified liquidity sweep. Between events the sums accumulate bar by bar, producing the stream's live anchored VWAP.
Sweep detection: A sweep qualifies when price wicks through the last confirmed swing level but closes back inside it, with per-level memory so the same level cannot re-trigger. The sweep stream then re-anchors from that bar.
Deviation bands: The primary stream (selectable; week open by default) carries inner and outer bands at configurable sigma multiples computed from its own volume-weighted variance, with softly tinted zones between them.
Signals: A wick beyond the outer band with a close back inside, on the correct side of the VWAP, prints the σ rejection signal — reversion bias toward the average — evaluated on closed bars only and rate-limited by the cooldown.
Clusters: On the live bar the engine groups all active stream values within the tolerance and draws a labeled zone for each group of two or more.
Dashboard: A fully themeable panel lists every stream with its live distance from price in Average True Range units and side, plus the In Control stream, active cluster count, and the current band width.
Non-repainting: Anchors use confirmed events, sweeps and signals are evaluated at bar close, and swing streams rebuild exactly rather than approximately.
🔶 HOW TO USE IT
1. Works on any market with reliable volume — cryptocurrency, stocks, indices, futures. On the default settings, read the week-anchored VWAP as the institutional benchmark: above it with rising distance means the average weekly participant is in profit.
2. Treat the VWAP itself as the decision level and the outer bands as stretch: σ rejections at the outer band carry a reversion bias back toward the average.
3. Enable the swing and sweep anchors to study reactions: price returning to a sweep-anchored VWAP is returning to the average entry of the stop-run — a level worth watching.
4. Cluster zones are the highest-value levels the engine produces: several independent volume-weighted averages agreeing on one price. Watch how price behaves on first touch.
5. Use the In Control row to pick which stream deserves your attention today, and the distance column to see what is nearby before it is hit.
6. Intraday traders can switch the primary stream to Session Open; swing traders can promote Month Open.
🔶 SETTINGS
- Anchors: independent toggles for all seven streams, swing pivot length, highest-volume lookback. Default: Week Open only.
- Primary stream selection with inner and outer band multiples.
- Cluster detection with Average True Range tolerance.
- Signals: toggle, cooldown, and signals to keep.
- Individual colors for every stream plus accent and neutral colors.
- Themeable dashboard: position, four text sizes, title band, background, frame, grid, and three text colors.
🔶 ALERTS
- Bullish / Bearish Band Rejection — price rejected the outer deviation band of the primary stream.
- Price Crossed Above / Below Primary VWAP.
- VWAP Cluster Formed — two or more streams converged into a confluence zone.
- Sweep Anchor Reset — a liquidity sweep occurred and the sweep stream re-anchored from the stop-run bar.
🔶 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Does the indicator repaint? No. Anchor events are confirmed before they act, swing streams rebuild exactly from the confirmed pivot bar, and signals are evaluated on closed bars. Swing confirmation carries its standard pivot lag by design.
Why do I only see one line? By default only the week-anchored stream is enabled for a clean first chart. Every other anchor is a checkbox in settings.
What makes the sweep anchor special? It averages price and volume from the exact bar where stops were run — the basis of the participants who engineered the move — rather than from a calendar date or swing alone.
Why is there no cluster or In Control reading? Both features compare multiple streams; enable two or more anchors and they activate.
Which markets should avoid it? Any Volume Weighted Average Price tool is only as good as the volume feed. On symbols with unreliable or synthetic volume reporting, treat every stream with caution.
🔶 CREDITS
The Volume Weighted Average Price was introduced by Stephen Berkowitz, Dennis Logue and Eugene Noser (1988), and the anchored application was popularized by Brian Shannon, whose work established anchoring from meaningful events as a discipline. This script gratefully acknowledges both. The multi-stream auto-anchoring engine, the liquidity-sweep anchor, the exact retroactive swing rebuild, confluence clustering, the In Control stability metric, and all code in this script are original work — no third-party or open-source script code was reused.
🔶 LIMITATIONS
Volume quality determines VWAP quality; symbols with unreliable volume produce unreliable averages. Deviation bands need bars to mature after each re-anchor. Cluster detection reports convergence, not a guarantee of reaction. The In Control metric measures recent respect, not future behavior. No indicator replaces independent analysis.

VWAP Suite I EonMetricsVWAP Suite
VWAP Suite plots three independently anchored Volume-Weighted Average Price lines — Session, Weekly and Monthly — with volume-weighted deviation bands and the previous period's VWAP close kept on the chart as a reference level. Everything is computed from first principles at each anchor, so every line resets exactly where its period starts.
🔶 WHAT VWAP IS
VWAP is the average price of the period weighted by how much volume traded at each price. It answers one question: "what is the fair average price actually paid since the anchor?" That is why institutional execution desks benchmark fills against it, and why price so often reacts when it returns there — it is the level where the average participant in the period is at break-even. Above the VWAP the average buyer of the period is in profit; below it, under water.
🔶 WHAT IT DOES
Three anchors — Session (resets each trading day), Weekly and Monthly VWAP, each with its own toggle and color. Intraday traders typically work with Session, swing traders add Weekly, and Monthly serves as the higher-timeframe fair-value reference. Anchors that make no sense on the current chart timeframe (e.g. a Session VWAP on a daily chart) hide themselves automatically.
Deviation bands — ±1σ, ±2σ and optional ±3σ around ONE chosen anchor. The deviation is volume-weighted and anchored to the same period as the VWAP it wraps — not a rolling standard deviation — which is the statistically consistent way to band a VWAP (the same math TradingView's built-in VWAP bands use). ±2σ is the classic stretched-price reference; the optional gradient fill keeps the zones readable without clutter.
Previous VWAP Close — the exact level where the Session (or Weekly) VWAP finished its previous period, drawn flat through the current one. The same idea as previous day high/low, but volume-based: yesterday's fair price is a natural magnet and reaction level for today. Few VWAP tools carry this level forward — it is the reason this suite exists.
🔶 HOW IT IS CALCULATED
From each anchor the script accumulates three sums bar by bar: volume × price, volume, and volume × price². VWAP = Σ(volume × price) / Σ(volume). The band deviation comes from the volume-weighted variance Σ(volume × price²)/Σ(volume) − VWAP². At every period rollover the previous VWAP value is captured first, then the sums reset to zero. Values only update on confirmed data — there is no repainting logic anywhere in the script.
🔶 ALERTS
Seven alert conditions: price crossing each of the three VWAPs, price touching the +2σ or −2σ band, and price crossing the previous Session or previous Week VWAP close.
🔶 HOW TO USE
1. Pick your anchors — Session for intraday, add Weekly for swing context.
2. Choose which anchor carries the deviation bands (Bands Around).
3. Keep Previous Session VWAP on — reactions at yesterday's fair price are the cleanest thing this tool shows.
4. Set alerts on the crossings you actually trade around.
🔶 SETTINGS
Source (price input, hlc3 default) · Anchors (Session / Weekly / Monthly, each with color) · Deviation Bands (anchor selector, ±1σ/±2σ/±3σ toggles, gradient fill) · Previous VWAP Close (Session / Weekly levels).
🔶 HONEST LIMITATIONS
On CFDs and spot forex the data feed reports TICK volume (number of price updates), not true traded volume. VWAP built on tick volume is still the standard practice on those markets and tracks the real one closely on liquid symbols, but you should know what feeds the math. On symbols with no volume data at all the script deliberately shows nothing rather than fake a line. VWAP is a descriptive average, not a prediction — this tool draws levels, it does not generate signals.

NIMBUS [ThrowMaster]NIMBUS — Ichimoku, Reimagined
Classic Ichimoku is brilliant at one question: "Where is the market right now — above, below, or inside equilibrium?" It is far weaker at a second question every trader actually asks: "What is the market about to do?" NIMBUS keeps the timeless Ichimoku framework intact and adds three dimensions built to close that gap — while staying, above all, honest about what it is: a context compass, not a signal service.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT NIMBUS ADDS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⭐ Kumo Calendar — Twist Countdown
Here is a fact most traders overlook: the cloud in front of price is already fully drawn. It is built entirely from bars that have ALREADY closed, then shifted forward. That means the next Kumo twist — the moment Senkou Span A and B swap places — is knowable in advance. NIMBUS scans the forward cloud and counts the exact number of bars until that twist reaches price, and warns you when a thin (weak-support) section is approaching. Ichimoku's most-criticised trait, its lag, becomes a schedule you can read ahead of time.
🩵 Breath — Volume-Reactive Cloud
A traditional cloud shows only price geometry; two identical-looking clouds can hide wildly different conviction. NIMBUS makes the cloud breathe: it grows more solid on high-participation bars and fainter on quiet ones, using a rolling volume percentile. Strength becomes something you feel at a glance, not something you have to calculate. (If a symbol reports no volume, the cloud simply falls back to a fixed opacity — no errors, no false readings.)
🎯 Tenkan / Kijun Cross Clarity
The Tenkan–Kijun cross is one of Ichimoku's core events, yet on most charts it hides in a tangle of lines. NIMBUS marks it precisely: a teal circle at the exact price and bar of a bullish cross, coral for bearish. No hunting, no guessing.
◈ Alignment Hints
When four independent Ichimoku dimensions agree — price vs cloud, Tenkan vs Kijun, cloud colour, and the lagging read — AND price reclaims or loses the cloud on a confirmed bar, NIMBUS prints a small diamond. Think of it as a puzzle-game hint: a nudge to look at the right place at the right time. It is deliberately NOT a buy or sell command, and it never gives a target.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HOW IT WORKS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
NIMBUS uses the standard Ichimoku engine — Tenkan (9), Kijun (26), Senkou Span A/B, and the lagging span, all fully adjustable. "Price vs cloud" always compares price to the cloud value formed 25 bars ago — the cloud actually sitting beneath price — so the reading reflects real, settled structure. The Breath layer reads a 100-bar volume percentile. The Twist Countdown walks the already-shifted forward cloud bar by bar. The dashboard summarises everything in one compact, theme-aware panel with a mobile Compact Mode.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HOW TO USE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• Read the cloud for trend context: above = bullish structure, below = bearish, inside = balance/chop.
• Watch the Twist Countdown to anticipate when the cloud's support/resistance character is about to flip — useful for planning, not for firing blind.
• Let Breath tell you whether a move carries participation or is running on fumes.
• Treat Hints as a reason to zoom in and do your own analysis, never as an instruction.
• Combine with your own risk management. NIMBUS describes context; your plan decides the trade.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
ON REPAINTING (honest)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Once a bar closes, every Tenkan/Kijun/Span value is fixed and never redrawn. Hints and cross circles are all confirmed on bar close, so a printed mark cannot later disappear. The forward cloud is built only from closed bars, so it is fixed the moment it appears. Like all Ichimoku tools, values on the CURRENT, still-forming bar update in real time until that bar closes — this is inherent to the framework, not hidden repainting, and it is documented directly in the code comments.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT MAKES IT ORIGINAL
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
NIMBUS is not another line pack bolted onto Ichimoku. The Kumo Calendar reframes the forward cloud as a countdown rather than a static shape; Breath encodes participation into the cloud's opacity; and the whole tool is presented as an explicit, self-aware CONTEXT instrument — it tells you what the market is, and refuses to pretend it knows your trade. The code is fully open for you to read, study, and learn from.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
NOTE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
No indicator predicts the future or guarantees results, and NIMBUS makes no such claim. It is a decision-support and context tool. Markets involve risk; always use independent judgement and sound risk management. Not financial advice.

Orderflow Suite [martineye15]Orderflow Suite — four order-flow tools in one indicator: Cumulative Volume Delta, footprint bars, imbalance / absorption signals, and a volume profile. Each module toggles independently, so you can run the full suite or just the part you need. CVD gets its own pane; the footprint, signals and profile draw directly on the price chart, so no second script is required.
MODULES
- Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD): running buy-minus-sell volume, with Session / Day / Week / None reset anchoring and a Line, Columns or Candle display (candles show open = previous CVD, close = new CVD, wicks from the intrabar delta extremes). Optional price-CVD divergence: bearish when price makes a higher high while CVD makes a lower high, bullish when price makes a lower low while CVD makes a higher low.
- Footprint bars: the most recent bars are split into price bins, each showing aggregated buy x sell volume, shaded by its net delta, with the bar's highest-volume bin (VPOC) framed.
- Imbalance & absorption: delta-imbalance triangles when |delta| / volume passes a threshold, stacked-imbalance zones when several same-direction imbalance bars line up, plus absorption labels (heavy volume in a tight range near a swing) and exhaustion labels (a new swing high on negative delta, or a new swing low on positive delta).
- Volume profile: a volume-at-price histogram over a lookback window with POC, value-area high / low and the 70% value area, in total-volume or delta-coloured mode.
DELTA ENGINE (please read)
TradingView does not provide a true bid/ask tick feed, so delta here is an approximation, not exchange order flow. Historical delta is estimated from lower-timeframe intrabars: an intrabar counts as buy volume when it closes above its open, sell volume when below, and is split evenly on an unchanged close. On the live bar you can optionally accumulate tick-based delta instead (uptick = buy, downtick = sell). Because TradingView does not store ticks, realtime values built this way can differ from what the same bar shows after a chart refresh. Treat every delta value as an estimate.
ALERTS
Ten conditions: CVD bullish / bearish divergence, bullish / bearish imbalance, stacked bullish / bearish imbalance, absorption at highs / lows, and exhaustion top / bottom.
HOW TO USE
Add it to a symbol that has volume (crypto, futures or stocks — spot forex usually has no real volume, and the tool will tell you so). Intraday timeframes from about 1 minute to 1 hour work best. Turn on the modules you want, set the delta engine (lower-timeframe auto / manual, and optional realtime tick mode), and adjust the per-module thresholds and sizes. Use CVD and its divergences for momentum and non-confirmation, the footprint and profile to see where volume actually traded, and the imbalance / absorption / exhaustion signals as context around swings. Set alerts on any of the ten conditions.
WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
It combines CVD, footprint, imbalance / absorption and a volume profile in a single indicator, sharing one delta engine and drawing the price-chart modules through force_overlay from a lower pane — a combined order-flow view without stacking several scripts. Drawing counts are budgeted internally so the modules together stay within TradingView's object limits.
REPAINTING & LIMITATIONS
Confirmed-bar behaviour is stable: footprints are built on closed bars, CVD divergences use confirmed pivots (so they appear a few bars after the pivot — normal pivot lag, not repainting), and the profile is computed over completed bars. The delta approximation is the main caveat: the live bar's delta is an estimate, and if you enable realtime tick mode, the live values will not match the same bar's historical lower-timeframe values after a refresh — this is inherent to how TradingView exposes data and is noted in the input tooltips. One-second intrabars need a plan with seconds data; without it the tool uses a one-minute fallback, and very old bars beyond the intrabar budget fall back to whole-bar classification. A symbol with no volume cannot produce delta and will show a notice instead.
This is a visual, decision-support tool. It is not a strategy, it places no orders and reports no performance statistics, and it is not financial advice. Indicator
Adaptive Volume Confluence OscillatorWhat it is
One pane that fuses seven different reads of the bar into a single 0–100 confluence score, gates that score by a trend-vs-chop regime filter, confirms it against an auto-mapped higher timeframe, and — most importantly — forward-calibrates its own Buy/Sell signals against an unconditional base rate, so you can see whether the construction actually carries an edge on your instrument.
The seven votes: momentum sign · momentum vs its signal · money flow · trend structure (MA fan) · price location vs VWAP · trend slope · higher-timeframe bias.
The displayed wave is a volume-flow ribbon; the votes drive the score, the signals and the verdict. A plain-language verdict and a subtle pane tint make it readable at a glance (Simple view); a full analytic layer is available for advanced users (Pro view).
Why these are combined (mashup rationale)
A single oscillator whipsaws and a single signal over-fires. Combining helps only when the inputs key on different quantities and their agreement is checked. Each vote reads a different thing — momentum, momentum-vs-signal, volume flow, multi-MA structure, location vs a session mean, slope, and a higher-timeframe read — so the count that agrees carries more information than any one of them alone. A Kaufman Efficiency-Ratio regime gate suppresses conviction in chop, and a forward-calibration harness ties the whole construction back to realised forward outcomes.
An honest caveat, stated up front: the votes are not statistically independent. The oscillator itself embeds money flow, and vote 2 is derived from vote 1's series. Treat the score as a weight-of-evidence read, not as seven independent confirmations. The harness exists precisely so you can check whether the construction earns its keep on your instrument rather than taking the claim on faith.
How it works
Score — how many of the seven votes are bullish, scaled 0–100.
Regime — Kaufman Efficiency Ratio. Below the chop threshold, conviction dims, signals are withheld, and the verdict reads "WAIT – choppy".
HTF — the chart timeframe auto-maps to a confirming higher timeframe (~4–6×), requested with lookahead_off and offset by one bar while the live bar forms.
Signals — Buy/Sell fire only when the oscillator crosses its signal at a statistical OB/OS extreme and the score agrees and the regime isn't choppy and the visible wave isn't already at the opposite extreme.
Climax — a volume spike at an OB/OS extreme prints a Possible Bottom/Top exhaustion mark.
Divergence (Pro) — regular + hidden, from confirmed pivots on the momentum oscillator.
Calibration — each Buy/Sell is queued and resolved a fixed horizon later, then compared with the unconditional same-horizon base rate. The dashboard shows, per side: Hit %, Edge = Hit − Base, sample size, and a Wilson-gated star.
How to use it
Read the verdict and the score. Above the gate = bullish weight of evidence; below = bearish; in between, or in chop, the tool says WAIT — and it means it.
Treat Buy/Sell marks as context, not triggers. They already require the score, the regime and the wave to agree, but they remain a description of conditions — not a recommendation.
Read the Edge row before you weight any signal. If Buy/Sell Edge isn't clearly positive with an adequate sample and a star, this construction is not carrying an edge on this instrument — weight it down or ignore it. Do not tune the parameters until the Edge turns green: that is curve-fitting, and the harness is there to catch it, not to be defeated.
Combine with your own levels, structure and risk rules.
Universal across markets
Price / high / low are inputs, so the engine runs on any symbol or timeframe. The volume votes (money flow, climax, VWAP location) need real volume — prefer a futures contract or a stock. On a symbol with no volume the tool degrades gracefully: money flow is neutralised, the score falls back to the price-only votes, and the dashboard says "NO VOLUME", so you're never misled by a blank or a phantom reading.
Non-repainting
Votes read confirmed closes. The HTF series uses lookahead_off and is offset by one bar while the live bar forms. Divergences come from ta.pivot* and confirm a few bars after the pivot; once printed they don't move. The calibration harness logs and resolves only on confirmed bars, so its statistics never inflate intrabar. The live oscillator updates each bar, like any oscillator.

CVD Pressure Ledger - Cumulative Volume Delta FlowCVD Pressure Ledger - Cumulative Volume Delta Flow
CVD Pressure Ledger is a neutral volume-pressure research tool for studying how cumulative volume delta evolves, resets, normalizes, and interacts with price response.
It is designed for traders who want to observe the slope of supply/demand pressure, volume imbalance, price-flow agreement, and effort-versus-response context without turning those observations into automated trade signals.
This script is a context and visualization tool, not a trading system. It does not generate buy/sell signals. It does not provide entries, exits, targets, stops, position sizing, forecasts, win-rate claims, or performance claims.
What It Visualizes
The script displays a reset-aware cumulative volume delta framework with several optional visual layers:
- CVD line
- CVD candles
- Bar delta histogram
- Rescaled pressure score line
- Zero line and reset anchor tint
- Neutral pressure background
- Compact ledger table
- Data-quality notes for limited volume, fallback mode, live bars, and non-standard charts
The goal is to make volume-pressure context readable without overloading the chart.
Delta Engine
The script offers multiple calculation modes:
1. Auto intrabar
The script first attempts to use an intrabar CVD calculation when a valid lower timeframe is available. If it cannot use intrabar data safely, it falls back to a bar-based approximation.
2. Intrabar CVD
Uses TradingView's official TradingView/ta library requestVolumeDelta() function to request lower-timeframe volume delta information and build intrabar-aware CVD candles when the selected lower timeframe is valid.
3. Tick-rule approximation
Estimates positive or negative delta from the candle direction. This is a bar-based approximation and is not real bid/ask order flow.
4. CLV range-weighted approximation
Estimates delta from where the close sits within the candle range using a Close Location Value style calculation. This is also an approximation and is not real bid/ask order flow.
Auto lower timeframe mode avoids seconds/tick requests by default for stability. Manual lower timeframe mode remains available for users who want to research smaller timeframes when their data plan, feed, and symbol support them.
What Makes It Different
Many CVD tools focus mainly on a cumulative line, CVD candles, or a delta histogram.
CVD Pressure Ledger adds several context layers around the core CVD calculation:
- Reset-aware CVD state
- Pressure score normalized to a -100 to +100 scale
- CVD z-score and percentile context
- Delta share normalization
- Pressure persistence age
- New positive/negative CVD extremes within the reset period
- Price-flow agreement and mismatch context
- Effort-versus-response classification
- A compact ledger fingerprint that summarizes pressure, z-score bucket, response bucket, state age, and mismatch context
This makes the script more of a volume-pressure ledger than a simple cumulative delta plot.
Pressure Score
The pressure score is a normalized composite value from -100 to +100. It combines several configurable components:
- CVD slope
- Delta share
- CVD z-score
- Pressure persistence
Each component has a user-adjustable weight. The score is not a signal. It is a research value intended to summarize the current pressure context.
Pressure states are classified as Positive, Negative, or Neutral using a configurable threshold, neutral band, and optional hysteresis. Hysteresis helps reduce rapid state flipping around the threshold.
Price-Flow Agreement
The price-flow agreement layer compares price slope and CVD slope over a configurable lookback.
It classifies the context into neutral descriptive states such as:
- Price up / flow up
- Price down / flow down
- Price up / flow soft
- Price down / flow firm
- Mixed / flat
The script can also detect when price-flow mismatch starts or expands. These are contextual observations only, not trade signals.
Effort vs Response
The effort-versus-response layer compares volume-delta effort with normalized price movement.
It can classify contexts such as:
- High effort / muted response
- Flow and price aligned
- Price response leads flow
- Low activity
- Mixed response
This layer is intended to help users study whether large delta activity is accompanied by a proportional price response. It does not imply absorption, reversal, continuation, or a future outcome by itself.
Ledger Fingerprint
The ledger fingerprint is a compact text summary shown in the table.
Example format:
P0 Z1 Rm A5 M0
Meaning:
- P+, P-, P0: pressure polarity
- Z0, Z1, Z2: CVD z-score bucket
- Rh, Rm, Rl: response bucket
- A: pressure state age
- M0, Mx, Mn: mismatch context
This helps users quickly compare the current volume-pressure context across symbols, timeframes, and reset settings.
Inputs and Customization
The script includes grouped inputs for:
- Delta engine
- Reset / anchor mode
- Normalization
- Pressure score
- Price-flow agreement
- Effort vs response
- Display mode
- Colors
- Ledger table
- Alerts
- Safety / data warnings
Users can adjust calculation mode, lower timeframe, reset method, session settings, smoothing, lookbacks, thresholds, weights, display mode, table position, table size, colors, and alert availability.
Display Modes
The script includes several display presets:
- Clean: CVD line, zero line, and compact table
- Candle: CVD candles and delta histogram
- Research: CVD, pressure score, histogram, and table context
- Minimal: CVD line with minimal warnings
The visual design is intentionally restrained so the output remains readable on both dark and light chart themes.
Alerts
The script includes factual alert conditions, such as:
- Pressure state changed
- Positive pressure state started
- Negative pressure state started
- Pressure returned to neutral
- New positive CVD extreme
- New negative CVD extreme
- Price-flow mismatch started
- Price-flow mismatch expanded
- High effort / muted response context
- Reset period started
- Data fallback active
Alerts are descriptive context events only. They are not entry, exit, buy, sell, target, or stop signals.
Limitations
Delta calculations are approximations unless the selected data source and TradingView functions provide suitable lower-timeframe information.
Lower-timeframe and intrabar calculations depend on available historical data, symbol, exchange, feed, and account/data-plan limits.
FX, CFD, index, and synthetic symbols may use tick volume, broker-specific volume, or limited volume data. This can affect all volume-based calculations.
If a chart has no usable volume data, CVD may appear as a flat line because there is no volume input to accumulate. In that case, the table will show a volume limitation note. This is expected behavior, not a directional reading.
Non-standard chart types such as Heikin Ashi, Renko, Kagi, Point & Figure, Range, and other synthetic charts can affect price, volume, and derived calculations.
Realtime values can update until the bar closes. When Confirmed bars only is enabled, events and alerts are gated to confirmed bars, but visual values may still update on the live bar.
The default settings are research starting points, not optimized parameters.
What This Script Does Not Do
This script does not:
- Generate buy or sell signals
- Recommend trades
- Forecast price
- Provide entries or exits
- Provide targets or stops
- Provide position sizing
- Claim accuracy, profitability, or statistical reliability
- Reconstruct true bid/ask order flow
- Replace exchange-native order book or footprint data
Suggested Chart Setup
For publication screenshots and general use, a clean chart is recommended:
- Use one liquid symbol with visible volume
- Show the full symbol and timeframe
- Use only this script on the chart unless another script is necessary and explained
- Use Research mode when demonstrating the full context layers
- Use Clean mode when showing the CVD line and ledger table more simply
