Volume Range Map [BigBeluga]This volume-based tool identifies the highest and lowest price extremes within a lookback period and constructs two dynamic range zones. Each zone is filled with horizontal volume profiles that visualize the distribution of traded volume across price bins, helping traders pinpoint key areas of accumulation and distribution.
🔵Key Features:
Dynamic High/Low Zones:
➣ Automatically detects the highest and lowest price levels within a custom lookback window.
➣ Draws two shaded zones: one near the high and one near the low, representing potential supply and demand areas.
Volume Profiles per Zone:
➣ Each zone is filled with a volume profile histogram divided into bins.
➣ The length of each horizontal bar represents the relative volume traded at that price level.
➣ Bins collectively account for 100% of the zone’s volume.
POC Highlighting:
➣ The price bin with the highest volume is marked as the Point of Control (POC), along with a label showing its share of total volume in percentage.
➣ A dashed line is drawn at the middle level of the zone.
Customizable Display:
➣ Traders can adjust the number of bins, zone width, and toggle midline visibility to match their strategy needs.
➣ Colors of upper and lower volume zones are fully customizable.
🔵Usage:
Supply/Demand Analysis: Use upper/lower volume zones to find key reversal or continuation areas where market participants were most active.
Volume Confirmation: Confirm breakout or rejection trades by watching how price reacts to high-volume areas inside each zone.
POC Strategy: Treat POC levels as magnet zones — price tends to revisit them due to high liquidity.
Trade Planning: Use volume-weighted levels instead of raw price action to plan entries, stop-losses, and targets.
Volume Range Map offers a clean and powerful way to analyze volume distribution at price extremes. By combining precise volume histograms, POC highlights, and adaptive zone drawing, it brings market structure into sharper focus for range and breakout traders alike.
Channeltradiung
Half-Trend Channel [BigBeluga]Half Trend Channel is a powerful trend-following indicator designed to identify trend direction, fakeouts, and potential reversal points. The combination of upper/lower bands, midline coloring, and specific signals makes it ideal for spotting trend continuation and market reversals.
The base of the channel is calculated using smoothed half-trend logic.
// Initialize half trend on the first bar
if barstate.isfirst
hl_t := close
// Update half trend value based on conditions
switch
closeMA < hl_t and highestHigh < hl_t => hl_t := highestHigh
closeMA > hl_t and lowestLow > hl_t => hl_t := lowestLow
=> hl_t := hl_t
// Smooth
float s_hlt = ta.hma(hl_t, len)
🔵 Key Features:
Upper and Lower Bands:
The bands adapt dynamically to market volatility.
Price movements toward the bands help identify areas of overextension and potential reversal points.
Midline Trend Signal:
The midline changes color to reflect the current trend:
Green Midline: Indicates an uptrend.
Purple Midline: Signals a downtrend.
Fakeout Signals ("X"):
"X" markers appear when price briefly breaches the outer bands but fails to sustain the move.
Fakeouts help traders identify areas where price momentum weakens.
Reversal Signals (Triangles):
Triangles (▲ and ▼) mark potential tops and bottoms:
▲ Up Triangles: Suggest a potential bottom and a reversal to the upside.
▼ Down Triangles: Indicate a potential top and a reversal to the downside.
Dynamic Trend Labels:
At the last bar, the indicator displays labels like "Trend Up" or "Trend Dn" , reflecting the current trend direction.
🔵 Usage:
Use the colored midline to determine the overall trend direction.
Monitor "X" fakeout signals to spot failed breakouts or momentum exhaustion near the bands.
Watch for reversal triangles (▲ and ▼) to identify potential trend reversals at tops or bottoms.
Combine the bands and midline signals to confirm trade entries and exits:
Enter long trades when price bounces off the lower band with a green midline.
Consider short trades when price reverses from the upper band with a purple midline.
Use the trend label (e.g., "Trend Up" or "Trend Dn") for quick confirmation of the current market state.
The Half Trend Channel is an essential tool for traders who want to follow trends, avoid fakeouts, and identify reliable tops and bottoms to optimize their trading decisions.
