Ober Trend Oscillator [by Oberlunar]The Ober Trend Oscillator by Oberlunar unifies a volume-weighted view of price with order-flow information in a single, disciplined signal. At its core is a Triple Hull Moving Average applied to the session VWAP. This pairing is intentional: the Hull family is widely used because its quadratic weighting and internal differencing reduce phase lag versus SMA/EMA while preserving a smooth, readable contour; running it on top of VWAP anchors the calculation to a price already “risk-weighted” by volume, which behaves in practice like a microstructural equilibrium level. Around VWAP, the indicator computes standard-deviation envelopes that provide statistical context; excursions to the far band against the prevailing direction often mark probabilistic excess and become the first checkpoint for signal qualification.
The order-flow module is built on a tick-rule Cumulative Volume Delta, the most robust choice when native bid/ask deltas are unavailable. Volumes are signed by up- or down-moves, cumulatively integrated, then smoothed by a configurable EMA. To make the series comparable across instruments and timeframes, the CVD is standardised via an adjustable z-score window. This normalisation matters because it reframes “push” and “exhaustion” as deviations from recent behaviour rather than absolute thresholds tied to each market’s idiosyncratic liquidity. When enabled, a pivot-based divergence engine searches for fresh local highs or lows in price that the CVD refuses to confirm and annotates the symbol Δ with the percentage size of the divergence on price, on CVD, or both. Quantifying divergence avoids binary, eye-ball readings and lets you compare the relative strength of signals over time.
Signal generation follows a two-stage logic. Stage one is regime detection by the THMA on VWAP. The slope of the long THMA defines the primary trend, while the instantaneous difference between the THMA and its own lag sets the “serpentine” colour that conveys the local direction of pressure. Using slope on the longer window is deliberate: trend-following practice shows that slope filters materially reduce false positives in choppy regimes. Stage two enforces contextual alignment between price and higher-timeframe VWAP bands. For a long, the THMA computed on the higher-timeframe VWAP must sit below the current curve and below the second lower deviation, consistent with either a mean-reverting excess or early re-accumulation; shorts are defined symmetrically. Volume-flow confirmation is then required through either a rising CVD, a supportive z-score, or a detected pivot divergence in the same direction. To discourage over-trading, signals alternate by design and a strict colour gate is applied: a green diamond is never printed on a red line and bullish divergences are not drawn when the serpentine indicates bearish pressure. This visual consistency is not cosmetic; it reduces cognitive dissonance between filters and execution signal and improves reading discipline.
Parameters are organised to make these choices explicit. The main THMA length controls the oscillator’s sensitivity to VWAP, while the “trend” and “long-term” lengths drive the slope filter, with the latter acting as the regime anchor. The higher timeframe used to compute THMA on VWAP is the context-alignment knob and enables true multi-period operation, which is essential in fractal markets such as crypto, FX and equity indices. The VWAP deviation multiplier sets the breadth of the statistical bands; values modestly below one are a deliberate default to keep excess detection sensitive without turning the envelopes into a very wide channel. The ATR window that drives the line’s thickness is not a visual gimmick: thickness adapts to volatility and communicates the movement’s energy at a glance, much like an adaptive envelope.
The CVD package offers full control. A dedicated timeframe lets you decouple order-flow estimation from the chart’s timeframe when a slower, more reliable read of pressure is preferred. The calculation mode can reference Close-to-Close for responsiveness or HL2 for slightly greater robustness to closing noise, depending on the instrument’s microstructure. EMA smoothing governs granularity, the slope lookback sets how many observations are required to validate an inflection, and the z-score length defines the statistical horizon for normalisation—longer windows make the signal steadier, shorter windows make it more tactical. The pivot divergence option with percentage sizing grades relevance rather than merely flagging presence. Measuring both the price change between pivots and the CVD change is intentional: the most actionable divergences exhibit not only directionally opposing shapes but also a quantitative mismatch between price and flow; putting the two numbers side by side clarifies whether price is outrunning flow or flow is reversing ahead of price.
On the attached weekly Bitcoin example, the turquoise serpentine highlights impulsive phases while red denotes retracement or distribution. Δ labels with “P:%” and “C:%” mark points where price sets a new extreme without a matching CVD extreme; the percentage annotation helps distinguish a trivial imbalance from a credible exhaustion. Diamonds appear only when their colour agrees with the serpentine, and their location relative to the higher-TF VWAP bands clarifies when the market stops pushing “with volume” and starts pushing “against volume”—often the operational cue that precedes mean reversion or a consolidation before the next impulse.
Three methodological choices deserve emphasis. The THMA-on-VWAP architecture addresses the classic lag-versus-noise trade-off by combining a low-lag smoother with a volume-anchored base series that reflects institutional execution practice. Z-scoring the CVD is consistent with a statistical reading of flow that reasons in deviations from expected behaviour rather than fixed thresholds, which is particularly relevant on assets with shifting liquidity regimes. Finally, the colour gate plus signal alternation mitigates the well-known clustering of false positives in sideways markets: you do not print green on red or red on green, and you do not fire the same direction twice in a row without an opposite transition, which avoids hammering into the same move.
Practical usage is straightforward. Select your trading timeframe and align context with a higher timeframe in the VWAP-THMA; tune the VWAP deviation multiplier to match the instrument’s excess profile; choose an equal or slower CVD timeframe to extract structural pressure; enable divergence sizing when you want to measure, not only see, the gap between price and flow. Signals can also be drawn on the main chart, so next to candles, you will see both the execution diamonds and Δ labels with their percentage sizes. If you work with higher-timeframe inputs via `request.security`, be aware that those series confirm only at their own close; you can require confirmation for both the higher-TF VWAP and CVD timeframes to eliminate any practical repaint. Integrated alerts tied to THMA+VWAP+CVD validation convert discretionary reading into a monitorable workflow consistent with systematic routines.
Known limitations are stated explicitly. Tick-rule CVD is an approximation and, while standard in the absence of native bid/ask deltas, it may diverge from “true” delta on venues with unusual execution dynamics; normalisation helps but does not eliminate this. Pivot divergences depend on swing definition and require sensitivity calibration to avoid over-signalling on erratic markets. By construction, the oscillator favours trending contexts with statistically motivated pullbacks; during prolonged congestion, signals will naturally thin out, and the standardised CVD becomes the primary discriminator.
In sum, the Ober Trend Oscillator is a dual-channel reader: the THMA-on-VWAP line tells you about regime and movement quality, and the normalised CVD tells you about the pressure sustaining that movement. When the two stories align, continuation probability improves; when they diverge, the Δ annotation quantifies the gap and offers an objective basis for judging whether you are seeing a healthy pause or an impending reversal. The integration of volume-weighted price, simple statistics, and order-flow makes the indicator genuinely multi-period, capable of scaling from intraday to swing without changing its visual language or its decision criteria.

VWAP + Multi-Timeframe RSI StrategyThis strategy combines VWAP trend direction with confirmation from RSI on a higher timeframe. The idea is to only take trades when both intraday momentum and higher-timeframe trend are aligned, increasing accuracy.
LONG Entry:
Price above VWAP (bullish environment).
RSI on the current timeframe is below overbought (room to rise).
RSI on the higher timeframe (default H1) is above 50 (bullish confirmation).
SHORT Entry:
Price below VWAP (bearish environment).
RSI on the current timeframe is above oversold (room to fall).
RSI on the higher timeframe is below 50 (bearish confirmation).
Exit Rule:
Stop-loss near VWAP.
Take-profit at ~2x risk or when major levels are reached.
Best Timeframes:
Use 15m or 30m chart with H1 RSI for intraday trading.
Use 1H chart with Daily RSI for swing trading.
⚡ The higher-timeframe RSI filter reduces false signals and aligns trades with institutional flow.
VWAP Pullback + RSI ConfirmationThis strategy focuses on trend continuation entries. Instead of betting on reversions, it looks for opportunities when price pulls back to VWAP but the dominant trend remains intact.
Trend Bias:
Price above VWAP = bullish environment → look for BUY pullbacks.
Price below VWAP = bearish environment → look for SELL pullbacks.
Entry Logic:
BUY: Price pulls back near VWAP, RSI stays above oversold (momentum intact).
SELL: Price pulls back near VWAP, RSI stays below overbought (momentum intact).
Exit Rule:
Stop-loss just below/above VWAP.
Take-profit at 1.5–2x risk (default script uses ~2%).
Best Timeframes:
15m–1H → good for intraday trend-following setups.
Daily → captures stronger, longer trends.
⚡ This strategy is powerful in trending markets because VWAP acts as a "magnet" for pullbacks, while RSI prevents overbought/oversold traps.

VWAP Bands by PKTELUGUTRADERThe VWAP bands are like moving-average bands, but instead of being based on a simple or exponential moving average, they are calculated around the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP).
UPDATED LINE COLORS
Hybrid Trend MAHybrid Trend MA (Pine Script v6)
This indicator combines Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) and Arnaud Legoux Moving Averages (ALMA) into a single hybrid trend-following tool. It is designed to help traders visualize medium- and long-term trend directions while also capturing smoother short-term signals.
Key Features:
EMA Trend Structure
Three EMAs are plotted (lengths: 38, 62, 200).
Each EMA line changes color depending on whether it is rising or falling relative to the others:
Red → Strong uptrend alignment.
Lime → Strong downtrend alignment.
Aqua → Neutral or transition.
The indicator also fills the space between EMA zones with silver shading to highlight trend channels.
ALMA Trend Confirmation
Two ALMA curves are plotted (lengths: 13, 50).
Similar rising/falling logic is applied to color them:
Red → Bullish alignment and rising.
Green → Bearish alignment and falling.
Cyan → Neutral or uncertain trend.
A cross marker is plotted whenever the fast and slow ALMA lines cross, which may serve as an entry/exit confirmation.
Customizable Smoothing
The smoothe setting controls how many bars are checked to confirm whether an EMA or ALMA is rising/falling, helping reduce noise.
How to Use:
Trend Identification: The EMA set shows the larger market structure. When all EMAs align in direction and color, the trend is stronger.
Entry & Exit Confirmation: The ALMA cross signals can be used to refine entries and exits within the broader EMA trend.
Dynamic Visuals: Colored EMAs + ALMAs make it easy to distinguish bullish, bearish, and ranging conditions at a glance.

Dynamic EMA x VWAP AlertsDynamic EMA × VWAP Alerts generates buy and sell signals only when an EMA crossover happens in a meaningful VWAP (or standard deviation band) context. By combining classic EMA logic with flexible VWAP anchors (Daily, Weekly, Rolling) and optional advanced filters (ATR, Relative Volume, Deviation, Distance, Time Windows) to trim noise further, the script creates location-aware, filterable alerts rather than “everywhere” crosses. The value for trading and originality here lies in the integration of one or multiple anchors, band gating, combinator logic, and advanced regime filters. It’s designed for use across multiple instruments and timeframes, where EMA/VWAP context is relevant. It can run quietly in the background while you focus on price action and your own S/R levels.
What it does (quick take)
Detects EMA crossovers (double or optional triple) and evaluates them in VWAP context.
Plots Buy/Sell markers only when all chosen conditions are met.
Clean UX: keep all or parts of the engine visible or hide everything and let alerts run based on the silent engine behind your own S/R levels in an uncluttered, practical chart, as illustrated below.
Engine illustration: All selected engines visible
Practical use case: Same snapshot sequence as above but all selected engines invisible
Swing examples (beyond intraday)
Signals-only (clean value view):
Signals + your own S/R lines:
EMA selection (choose your playbook)
Defaults: Fast 9, Medium 21 (common intraday combo).
Modes: Double Cross — Fast vs Medium.
Triple Cross (optional) — adds a Slow EMA trend filter (enable Slow > 0).
Ranges: you can set each EMA 0–200 (0 = hidden/off)
Visuals are optional; you can display or hide each EMA line
EMA cross footprints (optional): Helps you assess trend continuation or change.
Use your own strategy: switch to 9/50, 20/50, 50/200, or whatever EMA set you trust for your instrument/timeframe.
VWAP Selection (the context engine)
Daily VWAP – resets each chart day (00:00–23:59). Typical fit: scalpers and fast intraday decision points.
Weekly VWAP – resets at the start of the calendar week. Typical fit: intraday with higher-timeframe context (aligns day trades with weekly bias).
Rolling VWAP – an adjustable VWMA-based rolling anchor (not session-reset), used as a flexible context reference Typical fit: multi-day swings when you want a flexible anchor that adapts across sessions.
Standard deviation bands (σ ±1/±2/±3) available for each anchor and help you express the “how far from fair value” idea.
Why VWAP matters: it’s a running, volume-weighted anchor where strong moves relative to VWAP and its bands help frame mean-reversion vs. trend-continuation risk. Evaluating crosses relative to VWAP/±σ reduces “everywhere” noise and helps frame potential setups.
How alerts are decided
An alert triggers only when:
Your selected EMA crossover occurs, and
Your chosen VWAP gate(s) and any filters pass. (Computed on bar close to avoid mid-bar noise)
Signals and alerts do not repaint; alerts evaluate and fire once per bar close.
Alert gates (Single / AND / OR)
Select one VWAP source or combine two (e.g., Daily + Weekly) with Single, AND, or OR logic.
Choose gate levels from VWAP or standard deviation bands (±σ). Typical long logic: price at/under VWAP or −σ. Typical short logic: price at/over VWAP or +σ.
Practical recipes:
Trend-follow: Daily AND Weekly at/above VWAP → confirms strength on two anchors.
Mean-reversion probe: Daily OR Rolling at −1σ → allows earlier fades with flexibility.
Advanced filtering: Suitable for advanced/Quant traders
During the research and development of this indicator, the EMA/VWAP cross logic was tested on historical S&P500 Futures data to explore patterns on multiple timeframes. These selected filtering indicators below showed correlation between certain market conditions and chosen indicator thresholds, helping reduce noise and lower-quality alerts. Results were research-oriented and are not predictive of future performance.
Therefore, I have built these indicator filters that run silently in the background. They let you trim noise by requiring alerts to appear only in market regimes you define. Each one constrains alert conditions; using them together helps tailor alerts to your strategy—but overly strict settings may filter out most or all alerts.
Relative Volume (RVOL): compares current volume to a baseline; ensures alerts arrive with participation instead of thin tape.
Deviation Threshold (%): controls how close the cross must be to the VWAP/σ level; tight = anchored signals, loose = more activity.
ATR Gate (+ Relative regime): keeps alerts inside a volatility regime; avoids both dead tape and chaotic spikes.
Distance Guard: requires price to be at least X ticks/% away from VWAP; useful to avoid premature signals near fair value.
Note: It’s not recommended to activate all of them at once or change the values aggressively. Unless you’ve done deeper backtesting or machine learning calibration, you can easily filter out everything. Use small thresholds at first, then adjust to your instrument once you see how each filter changes alert frequency and quality. Advanced/quant users can fine-tune freely.
Case example:
Unfiltered: Timeframe 15 min, EMA Selection 9/21, VWAP gates Rolling (250 bars) OR Weekly
Filtered: Same setup as above + activated filters:
RVOL: 100 bars, Min. RVOL 0.4
Deviation threshold (%): 0.3
ATR Length: 14
Min ATR (%): 0.05
Relative regime: Base length 2000, Min Ratio 0.85, Max Ratio 2
Under the hood
This indicator leans on TradingView built-ins (e.g., EMA, VWMA, ATR, alertcondition) to maximize speed, stability, and compatibility while we implement the custom logic (VWAP anchors, band gating, combinator gates, advanced filters, time windows). Built-ins were easy to work with and reduced edge-case bugs and kept the visuals responsive, while the design gives fine-tuning and clean visuals—so both discretionary traders and quant-minded users can shape the alerts to their strategy and workflow.

Volume Pressure Arrows[Blk0ut]Volume Pressure Arrows are an innovative (I think) market pressure tool designed to cut through noise and provide traders with a realistic, but quick insight into buying vs selling pressure and which has real control. Rather than relying on any single classic indicator, this script blends five complementary measures of price–volume dynamics—Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD), VWAP distance, OBV slope, ATR expansion, and the DMI ratio—into a unified “pressure score.”
Each component is normalized, weighted, and combined into a single metric that can be read at a glance through intuitive up and down arrows plotted directly on the chart. By transforming multiple complex data streams into a single aggregated signal, Volume Pressure Arrows help traders answer some of the hardest questions we can face: is the current move backed by conviction? is there true momentum? Is price action about to reverse?
Why It’s Different
Traditional oscillators often create conflicting signals, forcing traders to guess which one to trust. This indicator integrates five perspectives on volume and momentum pressure into a single framework, balancing raw flow (CVD), relative positioning (VWAP), trend conviction (OBV slope), volatility expansion (ATR), and directional bias (DMI). The result is a weighted, probability-minded score capped between -100 and +100 for consistency and clarity.
Important note : Inspiration for the use of directly plotted arrows came from dgtrd "https://www.tradingview.com/u/dgtrd/" and their brilliant work on LazyBear's Squeeze Indicator "https://www.tradingview.com/script/Dsr7B2xE-Squeeze-Momentum-Indicator-LazyBear-vX-by-DGT/"
How to Read It
Bullish Arrows appear below the candles when the pressure score pushes above the neutral threshold, signaling meaningful buyer dominance.
Bearish Arrows appear above the candles when pressure drops below the negative threshold, indicating strong selling pressure.
Neutral Arrows (smaller, faded) mark conditions where pressure exists but is not decisive—useful for spotting early rotations or fading momentum.
Color Gradients dynamically adjust with score intensity, making stronger signals visually brighter and weaker ones softer.
How to Use It Effectively
This tool is best applied as a confirmation and timing layer. It is not meant to replace your core strategy, but to validate whether momentum pressure supports your trade thesis.
Combine with trendlines, chart patterns, or breakouts to gauge conviction.
Use bullish or bearish arrows as filters, only take trades when price action aligns with strong directional pressure.
Watch neutral arrows near key levels; they often foreshadow balance breaking into directional moves.
Adjust the weightings to emphasize the components that matter most to your style (e.g., more weight on CVD for scalpers, or ATR expansion for volatility traders).
As with any indicator, this is not a magic ball and does not guarantee success. But it does allow you to increase the probability odds to your favor if you align it with your edge. Happy trading!
Structural Liquidity Signals [BullByte]Structural Liquidity Signals (SFP, FVG, BOS, AVWAP)
Short description
Detects liquidity sweeps (SFPs) at pivots and PD/W levels, highlights the latest FVG, tracks AVWAP stretch, arms percentile extremes, and triggers after confirmed micro BOS.
Full description
What this tool does
Structural Liquidity Signals shows where price likely tapped liquidity (stop clusters), then waits for structure to actually change before it prints a trigger. It spots:
Liquidity sweeps (SFPs) at recent pivots and at prior day/week highs/lows.
The latest Fair Value Gap (FVG) that often “pulls” price or serves as a reaction zone.
How far price is stretched from two VWAP anchors (one from the latest impulse, one from today’s session), scaled by ATR so it adapts to volatility.
A “percentile” extreme of an internal score. At extremes the script “arms” a setup; it only triggers after a small break of structure (BOS) on a closed bar.
Originality and design rationale, why it’s not “just a mashup”
This is not a mashup for its own sake. It’s a purpose-built flow that links where liquidity is likely to rest with how structure actually changes:
- Liquidity location: We focus on areas where stops commonly cluster—recent pivots and prior day/week highs/lows—then detect sweeps (SFPs) when price wicks beyond and closes back inside.
- Displacement context: We track the last Fair Value Gap (FVG) to account for recent inefficiency that often acts as a magnet or reaction zone.
- Stretch measurement: We anchor VWAP to the latest N-bar impulse and to the Daily session, then normalize stretch by ATR to assess dislocation consistently across assets/timeframes.
- Composite exhaustion: We combine stretch, wick skew, and volume surprise, then bend the result with a tanh transform so extremes are bounded and comparable.
- Dynamic extremes and discipline: Rather than triggering on every sweep, we “arm” at statistical extremes via percent-rank and only fire after a confirmed micro Break of Structure (BOS). This separates “interesting” from “actionable.”
Key concepts
SFP (liquidity sweep): A candle briefly trades beyond a level (where stops sit) and closes back inside. We detect these at:
Pivots (recent swing highs/lows confirmed by “left/right” bars).
Prior Day/Week High/Low (PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL).
FVG (Fair Value Gap): A small 3‑bar gap (bar2 high vs bar1 low, or vice versa). The latest gap often acts like a magnet or reaction zone. We track the most recent Up/Down gap and whether price is inside it.
AVWAP stretch: Distance from an Anchored VWAP divided by ATR (volatility). We use:
Impulse AVWAP: resets on each new N‑bar high/low.
Daily AVWAP: resets each new session.
PR (Percentile Rank): Where the current internal score sits versus its own recent history (0..100). We arm shorts at high PR, longs at low PR.
Micro BOS: A small break of the recent high (for longs) or low (for shorts). This is the “go/no‑go” confirmation.
How the parts work together
Find likely liquidity grabs (SFPs) at pivots and PD/W levels.
Add context from the latest FVG and AVWAP stretch (how far price is from “fair”).
Build a bounded score (so different markets/timeframes are comparable) and compute its percentile (PR).
Arm at extremes (high PR → short candidate; low PR → long candidate).
Only print a trigger after a micro BOS, on a closed bar, with spacing/cooldown rules.
What you see on the chart (legend)
Lines:
Teal line = Impulse AVWAP (resets on new N‑bar extreme).
Aqua line = Daily AVWAP (resets each session).
PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL = prior day/week levels (toggle on/off).
Zones:
Greenish box = latest Up FVG; Reddish box = latest Down FVG.
The shading/border changes after price trades back through it.
SFP labels:
SFP‑P = SFP at Pivot (dotted line marks that pivot’s price).
SFP‑L = SFP at Level (at PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL).
Throttle: To reduce clutter, SFPs are rate‑limited per direction.
Triggers:
Triangle up = long trigger after BOS; triangle down = short trigger after BOS.
Optional badge shows direction and PR at the moment of trigger.
Optional Trigger Zone is an ATR‑sized box around the trigger bar’s close (for visualization only).
Background:
Light green/red shading = a long/short setup is “armed” (not a trigger).
Dashboard (Mini/Pro) — what each item means
PR: Percentile of the internal score (0..100). Near 0 = bullish extreme, near 100 = bearish extreme.
Gauge: Text bar that mirrors PR.
State: Idle, Armed Long (with a countdown), or Armed Short.
Cooldown: Bars remaining before a new setup can arm after a trigger.
Bars Since / Last Px: How long since last trigger and its price.
FVG: Whether price is in the latest Up/Down FVG.
Imp/Day VWAP Dist, PD Dist(ATR): Distance from those references in ATR units.
ATR% (Gate), Trend(HTF): Status of optional regime filters (volatility/trend).
How to use it (step‑by‑step)
Keep the Safety toggles ON (default): triggers/visuals on bar‑close, optional confirmed HTF for trend slope.
Choose timeframe:
Intraday (5m–1h) or Swing (1h–4h). On very fast/thin charts, enable Performance mode and raise spacing/cooldown.
Watch the dashboard:
When PR reaches an extreme and an SFP context is present, the background shades (armed).
Wait for the trigger triangle:
It prints only after a micro BOS on a closed bar and after spacing/cooldown checks.
Use the Trigger Zone box as a visual reference only:
This script never tells you to buy/sell. Apply your own plan for entry, stop, and sizing.
Example:
Bullish: Sweep under PDL (SFP‑L) and reclaim; PR in lower tail arms long; BOS up confirms → long trigger on bar close (ATR-sized trigger zone shown).
Bearish: Sweep above PDH/pivot (SFP‑L/P) and reject; PR in upper tail arms short; BOS down confirms → short trigger on bar close (ATR-sized trigger zone shown).

Reading PR (the built‑in “oscillator”)
PR ~ 0–10: Potential bullish extreme (long side can arm).
PR ~ 90–100: Potential bearish extreme (short side can arm).
Important: “Armed” ≠ “Enter.” A trigger still needs a micro BOS on a closed bar and spacing/cooldown to pass.
Repainting, confirmations, and HTF notes
By default, prints wait for the bar to close; this reduces repaint‑like effects.
Pivot SFPs only appear after the pivot confirms (after the chosen “right” bars).
PD/W levels come from the prior completed candles and do not change intraday.
If you enable confirmed HTF values, the HTF slope will not change until its higher‑timeframe bar completes (safer but slightly delayed).
Performance tips
If labels/zones clutter or the chart lags:
Turn ON Performance mode.
Hide FVG or the Trigger Zone.
Reduce badge history or turn badge history off.
If price scaling looks compressed:
Keep optional “score”/“PR” plots OFF (they overlay price and can affect scaling).
Alerts (neutral)
Structural Liquidity: LONG TRIGGER
Structural Liquidity: SHORT TRIGGER
These fire when a trigger condition is met on a confirmed bar (with defaults).
Limitations and risk
Not every sweep/extreme reverses; false triggers occur, especially on thin markets and low timeframes.
This indicator does not provide entries, exits, or position sizing—use your own plan and risk control.

Dynamic Swing Anchored VWAP STRAT (Zeiierman/PineIndicators)Dynamic Swing Anchored VWAP STRATEGY — Zeiierman × PineIndicators (Pine Script v6)
A pivot-to-pivot Anchored VWAP strategy that adapts to volatility, enters long on bullish structure, and closes on bearish structure. Built for TradingView in Pine Script v6.
Full credits to zeiierman.
Repainting notice: The original indicator logic is repainting. Swing labels (HH/HL/LH/LL) are finalized after enough bars have printed, so labels do not occur in real time. It is not possible to execute at historical label points. Treat results as educational and validate with Bar Replay and paper trading before considering any discretionary use.
Concept
The script identifies swing highs/lows over a user-defined lookback ( Swing Period ). When structure flips (most recent swing low is newer than the most recent swing high, or vice versa), a new regime begins.
At each confirmed pivot, a fresh Anchored VWAP segment is started and updated bar-by-bar using an EWMA-style decay on price×volume and volume.
Responsiveness is controlled by Adaptive Price Tracking (APT) . Optionally, APT auto-adjusts with an ATR ratio so that high volatility accelerates responsiveness and low volatility smooths it.
Longs are opened/held in bullish regimes and closed when the regime turns bearish. No short positions are taken by design.
How it works (under the hood)
Swing detection: Uses ta.highestbars / ta.lowestbars over prd to update swing highs (ph) and lows (pl), plus their bar indices (phL, plL).
Regime logic: If phL > plL → bullish regime; else → bearish regime. A change in this condition triggers a re-anchor of the VWAP at the newest pivot.
Adaptive VWAP math: APT is converted to an exponential decay factor ( alphaFromAPT ), then applied to running sums of price×volume and volume, producing the current VWAP estimate.
Rendering: Each pivot-anchored VWAP segment is drawn as a polyline and color-coded by regime. Optional structure labels (HH/HL/LH/LL) annotate the swing character.
Orders: On bullish flips, strategy.entry("L") opens/maintains a long; on bearish flips, strategy.close("L") exits.
Inputs & controls
Swing Period (prd) — Higher values identify larger, slower swings; lower values catch more frequent pivots but add noise.
Adaptive Price Tracking (APT) — Governs the VWAP’s “half-life.” Smaller APT → faster/closer to price; larger APT → smoother/stabler.
Adapt APT by ATR ratio — When enabled, APT scales with volatility so the VWAP speeds up in turbulent markets and slows down in quiet markets.
Volatility Bias — Tunes the strength of APT’s response to volatility (above 1 = stronger effect; below 1 = milder).
Style settings — Colors for swing labels and VWAP segments, plus line width for visibility.
Trade logic summary
Entry: Long when the swing structure turns bullish (latest swing low is more recent than the last swing high).
Exit: Close the long when structure turns bearish.
Position size: qty = strategy.equity / close × 5 (dynamic sizing; scales with account equity and instrument price). Consider reducing the multiplier for a more conservative profile.
Recommended workflow
Apply to instruments with reliable volume (equities, futures, crypto; FX tick volume can work but varies by broker).
Start on your preferred timeframe. Intraday often benefits from smaller APT (more reactive); higher timeframes may prefer larger APT (smoother).
Begin with defaults ( prd=50, APT=20 ); then toggle “Adapt by ATR” and vary Volatility Bias to observe how segments tighten/loosen.
Use Bar Replay to watch how pivots confirm and how the strategy re-anchors VWAP at those confirmations.
Layer your own risk rules (stops/targets, max position cap, session filters) before any discretionary use.
Practical tips
Context filter: Consider combining with a higher-timeframe bias (e.g., daily trend) and using this strategy as an entry timing layer.
First pivot preference: Some traders prefer only the first bullish pivot after a bearish regime (and vice versa) to reduce whipsaw in choppy ranges.
Deviations: You can add VWAP deviation bands to pre-plan partial exits or re-entries on mean-reversion pulls.
Sessions: Session-based filters (RTH vs. ETH) can materially change behavior on futures and equities.
Extending the script (ideas)
Add stops/targets (e.g., ATR stop below last swing low; partial profits at k×VWAP deviation).
Introduce mirrored short logic for two-sided testing.
Include alert conditions for regime flips or for price-VWAP interactions.
Incorporate HTF confirmation (e.g., only long when daily VWAP slope ≥ 0).
Throttle entries (e.g., once per regime flip) to avoid over-trading in ranges.
Known limitations
Repainting: Swing labels and pivot confirmations depend on future bars; historical labels can look “perfect.” Treat them as annotations, not executable signals.
Execution realism: Strategy includes commission and slippage fields, yet actual fills differ by venue/liquidity.
No guarantees: Past behavior does not imply future results. This publication is for research/education only and not financial advice.
Defaults (backtest environment)
Initial capital: 10,000
Commission value: 0.01
Slippage: 1
Overlay: true
Max bars back: 5000; Max labels/polylines set for deep swing histories
Quick checklist
Add to chart and verify that the instrument has volume.
Use defaults, then tune APT and Volatility Bias with/without ATR adaptation.
Observe how each pivot re-anchors VWAP and how regime flips drive entries/exits.
Paper trade across several symbols/timeframes before any discretionary decisions.

VWAP Trend Strategy (Intraday) [KedarArc Quant]Description:
An intraday strategy that anchors to VWAP and only trades when a local EMA trend gate and a volume participation gate are both open. It offers two entry templates—Cross and Cross-and-Retest—with an optional Momentum Exception for impulsive moves. Exits combine a TrendBreak (structure flips) with an ATR emergency stop (risk cap).
Updates will be published under this script.
Why this merits a new script
This is not a simple “VWAP + EMA + ATR” overlay. The components are sequenced as gates and branches that *change the trade set* in ways a visual mashup cannot:
1. Trend Gate first (EMA fast vs. slow on the entry timeframe)
Counter-trend VWAP crosses are suppressed. Many VWAP scripts fire on every cross; here, no entry logic even evaluates unless the trend gate is open.
2. Participation Gate second (Volume SMA × multiplier)
This gate filters thin liquidity moves around VWAP. Without it, the same visuals would produce materially more false triggers.
3. Branching entries with structure awareness
* Cross: Immediate VWAP cross in the trend direction.
* Cross-and-Retest: Requires a revisit to VWAP vicinity within a lookback window (recent low near VWAP for longs; recent high for shorts). This explicitly removes first-touch fakeouts that a plain cross takes.
* Momentum Exception (optional): A quantified body% + volume condition can bypass the retest when flow is impulsive—intentional risk-timing, not “just another indicator.”
4. Dual exits that reference both anchor and structure
* TrendBreak: Close only when price loses VWAP and EMA alignment flips.
* ATR stop: Placed at entry to cap tail risk.
These exits complement the entry structure rather than being generic stop/target add-ons.
What it does
* Trades the session’s fair value anchor (VWAP), but only with local-trend agreement (EMA fast vs. slow) and sufficient participation (volume filter).
* Lets you pick Cross or Cross-and-Retest entries; optionally allow a fast Momentum Exception when candles expand with volume.
* Manages positions with a structure exit (TrendBreak) and an emergency ATR stop from entry.
How it works (concepts & calculations)
* VWAP (session anchor):
Standard VWAP of the active session; entries reference the cross and the retest proximity to VWAP.
* Trend gate:
Long context only if `EMA(fast) > EMA(slow)`; short only if `EMA(fast) < EMA(slow)`.
A *gate*, not a trigger—entries aren’t considered unless this is true.
* Participation (volume) gate:
Require `volume > SMA(volume, volLen) × volMult`.
Screens out low-participation wiggles around VWAP.
Entries:
* Cross: Price crosses VWAP in the trend direction while volume gate is open.
* Cross-and-Retest: After crossing, price revisits VWAP vicinity within `lookback` (recent *low near VWAP* for longs; recent *high near VWAP* for shorts).
* Momentum Exception (optional): If body% (|close−open| / range) and volume exceed thresholds, enter without waiting for the retest.
Exits:
* TrendBreak (structure):
* Longs close when `price < VWAP` and `EMA(fast) < EMA(slow)` (mirror for shorts).
* ATR stop (risk):
* From entry: `stop = entry ± ATR(atrLen) × atrMult`.
How to use it ?
1. Select market & timeframe: Intraday on liquid symbols (equities, futures, crypto).
2. Pick entry mode:
* Start with Cross-and-Retest for fewer, more selective signals.
* Enable Momentum Exception if strong moves leave without retesting.
3. Tune guards:
* Raise `volMult` to ignore thin periods; lower it for more activity.
* Adjust `lookback` if retests come late/early on your symbol.
4. Risk:
* `atrLen` and `atrMult` set the emergency stop distance.
5. Read results per session: Optional panel (if enabled) summarizes Net-R, Win%, and PF for today’s session to evaluate
behavior regime by regime.

AVWAP (ATR-Weighted VWAP) IndicatorAVWAP (Average True Range Weighted Average Price), you typically combine two core indicators:
1. VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
This is the base indicator that calculates the average price weighted by volume over a session or specified period.
VWAP serves as the core reference price level around which volatility adjustments are made for AVWAP.
2. ATR (Average True Range)
ATR measures market volatility, representing the average price range over a set period.
ATR is used to create volatility bands or buffers around the VWAP, adjusting levels to reflect prevailing market volatility.
How These Indicators Work Together for AVWAP:
Use VWAP to establish your average price line weighted by volume.
Calculate ATR to understand the average price movement range.
Apply ATR as multipliers to VWAP to create upper and lower volatility-adjusted bands (e.g., VWAP ± 1 × ATR), which form the AVWAP bands.
These bands help identify volatility-aware support/resistance and stop-loss placement zones.
So to make things easier I have built a custom AVWAP indicator to be used
How to use my custom indicator:
The central blue line is the VWAP.
The red and green bands above and below VWAP are AVWAP bands set at VWAP ± 1.5 × ATR by default.
Adjust the ATR length and multiplier inputs to suit the timeframe and volatility preferences.
Use the bands as dynamic support/resistance and for setting stop loss zones based on volatility.
Monthly VWAPDescription
This indicator identifies potential mean reversion opportunities by tracking price deviations from monthly VWAP with dynamic volatility-adjusted thresholds.
Core Logic:
The indicator monitors when price moves significantly away from monthly VWAP and looks for potential reversal opportunities. It uses ATR-based dynamic thresholds that adapt to current market volatility, combined with volume confirmation to filter out weak signals.
Key Features:
Adaptive Thresholds: ATR-based bands that adjust to market volatility
Volume Confirmation: Requires average volume spike to validate signals
Monthly Reset: VWAP anchors reset each month for fresh reference levels
Visual Clarity: Color-coded deviation line with background highlights for active signals
Info Panel: Shows days from anchor and current price context vs fair value
Signal Generation:
Buy Signal: Price below monthly VWAP by threshold amount with elevated volume
Sell Signal: Price above monthly VWAP by threshold amount with elevated volume
Neutral: Price within threshold range or insufficient volume
Best Used For:
Mean reversion strategies in ranging markets
Identifying potential oversold/overbought conditions
Understanding price position relative to monthly fair value
Option Selling Indicator
* ✅ Bullish Trend → Background turns Green (favorable for Put Selling)
* ❌ Bearish Trend → Background turns Red (favorable for Call Selling)
* ⚪ Sideways / Weak Trend → Background turns White (avoid trades or use range strategies)
📊 How to Use:
1. Apply the indicator on Index Futures or Stocks where Options are actively traded.
2. Use the **background color** as a visual guide:
* Green → Consider **Put Selling** opportunities.
* Red → Consider **Call Selling** opportunities.
* Grey → Market is sideways → **Avoid trades** or use strangle/straddle strategies.
3. Confirm signals with **VWAP levels** for better entries.
Weekly VwapsThe Weekly Vwaps indicator lets you plot weekly Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) lines for up to six months of your choosing, with years ranging from 2020 to 2050. It’s a focused tool pulled straight from the weekly VWAP section of the Advanced VWAP Calendar indicator, keeping all the same controls and look but expanded to handle more months. You can use it alongside the original indicator if you need extra weekly VWAPs (up to 30 lines total) or run it on its own for a clean, dedicated setup.
How It Works: Six Month Groups: Pick any six months (e.g., Jan 2020, Sep 2025, or Jul 2040) and enable up to five weekly VWAPs per month (W1–W5), starting from Monday midnight.
Default Setup: Loads with September 2025 VWAPs turned on, with other months (August–April 2025) off but ready to enable. All default to 2025.
Customization: Toggle all weeks in a month or pick specific ones. Adjust label sizes (tiny to huge) and line widths (1–5). Colors are teal, fuchsia, red, green, and yellow/orange for weeks 1–5, with clear labels like “W1 Sep 2025 123.45”.
Label Control: A “Show All Labels” switch lets you hide labels to keep your chart tidy.
Intraday Only: Works on intraday timeframes (e.g., 5-minute, 1-hour) for accurate VWAPs.
Why Use It: Add to Advanced VWAP Calendar: If the original’s two-month limit isn’t enough, this adds six more months of weekly VWAPs for deeper analysis.
Standalone Option: Perfect if you only want weekly VWAPs without other features, with flexibility to pick any months and years.
User-Friendly: Ready to go with September 2025 enabled, easy to tweak for past or future data.
Get Started: Add it to your TradingView chart, and September 2025 VWAPs will show up instantly. Adjust months, years, or toggles in the settings to focus on what you need. Test it on intraday charts and use the label toggle to manage clutter. Great for traders wanting precise, customizable weekly VWAPs!
