Time-Decay Liquidity Zones [BackQuant]Time-Decay Liquidity Zones
A dynamic liquidity map that turns single-bar exhaustion events into fading, color-graded zones, so you can see where trapped traders and unfinished business still matter, and when those areas have finally stopped pulling price.
What this is
This indicator detects unusually strong impulsive moves into wicks, converts them into supply or demand “zones,” then lets those zones decay over time. Each zone carries a strength score that fades bar by bar. Zones that stop attracting or rejecting price are gradually de-emphasized and eventually removed, while the most relevant areas stay bright and obvious.
Instead of static rectangles that live forever, you get a living liquidity map where:
Zones are born from objective criteria: volatility, wick size, and optional volume spikes.
Zones “age” using a configurable decay factor and maximum lifetime.
Zone color and opacity reflect current relative strength on a unified clear → green → red gradient.
Zones freeze when broken, so you can distinguish “active reaction areas” from “historical levels that have already given way”.
Conceptual idea
Large wicks with strong volatility often mark areas where aggressive orders met hidden liquidity and got absorbed. Price may revisit these areas to test leftover interest or to relieve trapped positions. However, not every wick matters for long. As time passes and more bars print, the market “forgets” some areas.
Time-Decay Liquidity Zones turns that idea into a rule-based system:
Find bars that likely reflect strong aggressive flows into liquidity.
Mark a zone around the wick using ATR-based thickness.
Assign a strength score of 1.0 at birth.
Each bar, reduce that score by a decay factor and remove zones that fall below a threshold or live too long.
Color all surviving zones from weak to strong using a single gradient scale and a visual legend.
How events are detected
Detection lives in the Event Detection group. The script combines range, wick size, and optional volume filters into simple rules.
Volatility filter
ATR Length — computes a rolling ATR over your chosen window. This is the volatility baseline.
Min range in ATRs — bar range (High–Low) must exceed this multiple of ATR for an event to be considered. This avoids tiny bars triggering zones.
Wick filters
For each bar, the script splits the candle into body and wicks:
Upper wick = High minus the max(Open, Close).
Lower wick = min(Open, Close) minus Low.
Then it tests:
Upper wick condition — upper wick must be larger than Min wick size in ATRs × ATR.
Lower wick condition — lower wick must be larger than Min wick size in ATRs × ATR.
Only bars with a sufficiently long wick relative to volatility qualify as candidate “liquidity events”.
Volume filter
Optionally, the script requires a volume spike:
Use volume filter — if enabled, volume must exceed a rolling volume SMA by a configurable multiplier.
Volume SMA length — period for the volume average.
Volume spike multiplier — how many times above the SMA current volume needs to be.
This lets you focus only on “heavy” tests of liquidity and ignore quiet bars.
Event types
Putting it together:
Upper event (potential supply / long liquidation, etc.)
Occurs when:
Upper wick is large in ATR terms.
Full bar range is large in ATR terms.
Volume is above the spike threshold (if enabled).
Lower event (potential demand / short liquidation, etc.)
Symmetric conditions using the lower wick.
How zones are constructed
Zone geometry lives in Zone Geometry .
When an event is detected, the script builds a rectangular box that anchors to the wick and extends in the appropriate direction by an ATR-based thickness.
For upper (supply-type) zones
Bottom of the zone = event bar high.
Top of the zone = event bar high + Zone thickness in ATRs × ATR.
The zone initially spans only the event bar on the x-axis, but is extended to the right as new bars appear while the zone is active.
For lower (demand-type) zones
Top of the zone = event bar low.
Bottom of the zone = event bar low − Zone thickness in ATRs × ATR.
Same extension logic: box starts on the event bar and grows rightward while alive.
The result is a band around the wick that scales with volatility. On high-ATR charts, zones are thicker. On calm charts, they are narrower and more precise.
Zone lifecycle, decay, and removal
All lifecycle logic is controlled by the Decay & Lifetime group.
Each zone carries:
Score — a floating-point “importance” measure, starting at 1.0 when created.
Direction — +1 for upper zones, −1 for lower zones.
Birth index — bar index at creation time.
Active flag — whether the zone is still considered unbroken and extendable.
1) Active vs broken
Each confirmed bar, the script checks:
For an upper zone , the zone is counted as “broken” when the close moves above the top of the zone.
For a lower zone , the zone is counted as “broken” when the close moves below the bottom of the zone.
When a zone breaks:
Its right edge is frozen at the previous bar (no further extension).
The zone remains on the chart, but is no longer updated by price interaction. It still decays in score until removal.
This lets you see where a major level was overrun, while naturally fading its influence over time.
2) Time decay
At each confirmed bar:
Score := Score × Score decay per bar .
A decay value close to 1.0 means very slow decay and long-lived zones.
Lower values (closer to 0.9) mean faster forgetting and more current-focused zones.
You are controlling how quickly the market “forgets” past events.
3) Age and score-based removal
Zones are removed when either:
Age in bars exceeds Max bars a zone can live .
This is a hard lifetime cap.
Score falls below Minimum score before removal .
This trims zones that have decayed into irrelevance even if their age is still within bounds.
When a zone is removed, its box is deleted and all associated state is freed to keep performance and visuals clean.
Unified gradient and color logic
Color control lives in Gradient & Color . The indicator uses a single continuous gradient for all zones, above and below price, so you can read strength at a glance without guessing what palette means what.
Base colors
You set:
Mid strength color (green) — used for mid-level strength zones and as the “anchor” in the gradient.
High strength color (red) — used for the strongest zones.
Max opacity — the maximum visual opacity for the solid part of the gradient. Lower values here mean more solid; higher values mean more transparent.
The script then defines three internal points:
Clear end — same as mid color, but with a high alpha (close to transparent).
Mid end — mid color at the strongest allowed opacity.
High end — high color at the strongest allowed opacity.
Strength normalization
Within each update:
The script finds the maximum score among all existing zones.
Each zone’s strength is computed as its score divided by this maximum.
Strength is clamped into .
This means a zone with strength 1.0 is currently the strongest zone on the chart. Other zones are colored relative to that.
Piecewise gradient
Color is assigned in two stages:
For strength between 0.0 and 0.5: interpolate from “clear” green to solid green.
Weak zones are barely visible, mid-strength zones appear as solid green.
For strength between 0.5 and 1.0: interpolate from solid green to solid red.
The strongest zones shift toward the red anchor, clearly separating them from everything else.
Strength scale legend
To make the gradient readable, the indicator draws a vertical legend on the right side of the chart:
About 15 cells from top (Strong) to bottom (Weak).
Each cell uses the same gradient function as the zones themselves.
Top cell is labeled “Strong”; bottom cell is labeled “Weak”.
This legend acts as a fixed reference so you can instantly map a zone’s color to its approximate strength rank.
What it plots
At a glance, the indicator produces:
Upper liquidity zones above price, built from large upper wick events.
Lower liquidity zones below price, built from large lower wick events.
All zones colored by relative strength using the same gradient.
Zones that freeze when price breaks them, then fade out via decay and removal.
A strength scale legend on the right to interpret the gradient.
There are no extra lines, labels, or clutter. The focus is the evolving structure of liquidity zones and their visual strength.
How to read the zones
Bright red / bright green zones
These are your current “major” liquidity areas. They have high scores relative to other zones and have not yet decayed. Expect meaningful reactions, absorption attempts, or spillover moves when price interacts with them.
Faded zones
Pale, nearly transparent zones are either old, decayed, or minor. They can still matter, but priority is lower. If these are in the middle of a long consolidation, they often become background noise.
Broken but still visible zones
Zones whose extension has stopped have been overrun by closing price. They show where a key level gave way. You can use them as context for regime shifts or failed attempts.
Absence of zones
A chart with few or no zones means that, under your current thresholds, there have not been strong enough liquidity events recently. Either tighten the filters or accept that recent price action has been relatively balanced.
Use cases
1) Intraday liquidity hunting
Run the indicator on lower timeframes (e.g., 1–15 minute) with moderately fast decay.
Use the upper zones as potential sell reaction areas, the lower zones as potential buy reaction areas.
Combine with order flow, CVD, or footprint tools to see whether price is absorbing or rejecting at each zone.
2) Swing trading context
Increase ATR length and range/wick multipliers to focus only on major spikes.
Set slower decay and higher max lifetime so zones persist across multiple sessions.
Use these zones as swing inflection areas for larger setups, for example anticipating re-tests after breakouts.
3) Stop placement and invalidation
For longs, place invalidation beyond a decaying lower zone rather than in the middle of noise.
For shorts, place invalidation beyond strong upper zones.
If price closes through a strong zone and it freezes, treat that as additional evidence your prior bias may be wrong.
4) Identifying trapped flows
Upper zones formed after violent spikes up that quickly fail can mark trapped longs.
Lower zones formed after violent spikes down that quickly reverse can mark trapped shorts.
Watching how price behaves on the next touch of those zones can hint at whether those participants are being rescued or squeezed.
Settings overview
Event Detection
Use volume filter — enable or disable the volume spike requirement.
Volume SMA length — rolling window for average volume.
Volume spike multiplier — how aggressive the volume spike filter is.
ATR length — period for ATR, used in all size comparisons.
Min wick size in ATRs — minimum wick size threshold.
Min range in ATRs — minimum bar range threshold.
Zone Geometry
Zone thickness in ATRs — vertical size of each liquidity zone, scaled by ATR.
Decay & Lifetime
Score decay per bar — multiplicative decay factor for each zone score per bar.
Max bars a zone can live — hard cap on lifetime.
Minimum score before removal — score cut-off at which zones are deleted.
Gradient & Color
Mid strength color (green) — base color for mid-level zones and the lower half of the gradient.
High strength color (red) — target color for the strongest zones.
Max opacity — controls the most solid end of the gradient (0 = fully solid, 100 = fully invisible).
Tuning guidance
Fast, session-only liquidity
Shorter ATR length (e.g., 20–50).
Higher wick and range multipliers to focus only on extreme events.
Decay per bar closer to 0.95–0.98 and moderate max lifetime.
Volume filter enabled with a decent multiplier (e.g., 1.5–2.0).
Slow, structural zones
Longer ATR length (e.g., 100+).
Moderate wick and range thresholds.
Decay per bar very close to 1.0 for slow fading.
Higher max lifetime and slightly higher min score threshold so only very weak zones disappear.
Noisy, high-volatility instruments
Increase wick and range ATR multipliers to avoid over-triggering.
Consider enabling the volume filter with stronger settings.
Keep decay moderate to avoid the chart getting overloaded with old zones.
Notes
This is a structural and contextual tool, not a complete trading system. It does not account for transaction costs, execution slippage, or your specific strategy rules. Use it to:
Highlight where liquidity has recently been tested hard.
Rank these areas by decaying strength.
Guide your attention when layering in separate entry signals, risk management, and higher-timeframe context.
Time-Decay Liquidity Zones is designed to keep your chart focused on where the market has most recently “cared” about price, and to gradually forget what no longer matters. Adjust the detection, geometry, decay, and gradient to fit your product and timeframe, and let the zones show you which parts of the tape still have unfinished business.

Advanced Triple Strategy ScalperHere are the three scalping strategies presented in the video "3 Scalping Strategies That Work Every Day (Backtested & Proven)" by Asia Forex Mentor – Ezekiel Chew:
### Scalper’s Trend Filter (Triple EMA)
This strategy uses three EMAs (25, 50, 100) on the 5-minute chart to filter high-probability trades aligned with momentum .
- Only trade when all three EMAs are angled in the same direction and clearly separated (no crossing or tangling) .
- Enter when price pulls back toward the 25 or 50 EMA and then bounces back toward the 25 EMA, but do not enter if price closes below the 100 EMA .
- Set stop-loss just below the 50 EMA or swing low and aim for a risk-to-reward ratio of 1:1.5 .
### Flip Zone Trap (Reversal Catching)
This method identifies precise reversal moments where market structure shifts from weakness to strength .
- Use the 15-min chart to locate key support or resistance zones where price previously reacted .
- Wait for price to stop making lower lows and begin making higher highs (or vice versa for shorts); confirm with a trendline break AND follow-through (higher lows & highs within 5-7 candles) .
- Use confirmation candles (bullish engulfing, pin bar rejection) at the zone before entry .
### Liquidity Shift Trigger (Smart Money Trap)
This system leverages institutional stop hunts and liquidity sweeps at key zones for sniper entries .
- Start with a 15-min chart to identify structure breaks and points of interest (order blocks, flip zones, demand zones) .
- Drop to 1-min chart and wait for price to enter the refined zone and sweep liquidity (sharp wick/spike below/above key level) .
- Once liquidity is swept, wait for a clean structure shift (break of most recent internal high or low) within 5–6 candles—if confirmed, refine entry to the candle that caused the break and enter when price returns to that candle with a strong reaction .
***
### Practical Application
- These strategies are systematic, rule-based, and designed to cut out fake moves, avoid early stop-outs, and align entries with momentum and institutional activity .
- Perfect for short timeframes and volatile pairs like XAUUSD, especially if paired with additional confirmation from other technical analysis tools .
All three strategies emphasize filtering noise, waiting for momentum/trend confirmation, and avoiding impulsive entries—key principles for consistent scalping success
Institution Radar Institution Radar
Institution Radar compares Price RSI with Volume-Delta RSI to show when price moves are real (backed by volume) or fake (moving without volume).
This helps reveal two powerful concepts:
Absorption (Bullish or Bearish)
Absorption happens when a large limit order is sitting in the order book.
Market orders hit it over and over, but the level doesn't break.
This usually means:
Strong players are absorbing the aggressive orders
Price is likely to move in the opposite direction
The next candle often reacts immediately
Can lead to a full reversal or just a short 1–2 candle move
Exhaustion (Bullish or Bearish)
Exhaustion happens when institutions pull their limit orders away.
There is no real volume behind the move, so price drifts up or down easily.
This usually means:
The current move is weak
A slowdown, pullback, or reversal is likely
Often shows up right before a flip in direction
📌 What the Signals Mean
Green signal → next candles often push upward
Red signal → next candles often push downward
These can mark trend reversals or temporary 1–2 candle reactions
🎚️ Sensitivity Setting
You can adjust how strict the signals are:
Lower sensitivity = more signals, more noise
Higher sensitivity = fewer signals, but more accurate and stronger
A higher sensitivity is recommended if you only want the cleanest institutional moments.
Trend ProTrend Pro is a volatility-adaptive trend and momentum system designed for scalping, day trading, and short-term swing trading.
It uses an ATR-based dynamic trend line (Alpha-Trend style) to identify momentum shifts and confirm directional strength.
Unlike traditional moving averages, Trend Pro adapts to volatility and reacts faster during expansions while filtering noise during chop.
🔍 How Trend Pro Works
Trend Pro builds a dynamic volatility channel using ATR and tracks whether price stays above or below this adaptive line.
When price crosses and closes on the opposite side, it suggests a shift in market control.
When price closes above the line → the trend turns BULLISH (green)
When price closes below the line → the trend turns BEARISH (red)
This gives a clear, visual trend state without repainting.
Tips for Best Performance:
✔ Avoid signals directly inside major ranges or sideways chop
✔ Strongest entries come after small pullbacks into the line
✔ Combine signals with:
Market structure
Key swing highs/lows
Liquidity sweeps
Session timing (NYSE open, power hour)
✔ Trend Pro works best when used with the trend, not counter-trend
Enjoy!
ADX HUD LabelStatic ADX Strength Label
Drops a fixed label in the top-right corner of your chart that only tells you one thing: is the trend worth trading or not.
The label constantly updates the current ADX value and changes color: red below 20 (dead / choppy), yellow between 20–25 (warming up), and green above 25 (strong trend, go hunting).
Use it as a quick trend-filter so you’re not forcing trades when the market is caca chop.
Cumulative Volume Delta (HA Option)# **📘 Ultimate Guide to Trading With CVD Heikin Ashi (CVD+)**
## **🔍 What This Indicator Shows**
This tool plots **Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)** as candlesticks—optionally transformed into **Heikin Ashi CVD candles**.
Instead of price, each candle represents the *battle between buyers and sellers* within your chosen timeframe.
**Volume Delta = Buying Volume – Selling Volume**
CVD takes all deltas and stacks them cumulatively, showing who is controlling the auction *over time*.
With Heikin Ashi smoothing layered on top, trend detection becomes cleaner, letting you see the “true pressure” behind price moves.
---
# **💡 Why CVD Is a Game Changer**
Most traders only see price.
Serious traders watch **pressure**.
CVD exposes what price hides:
* Absorption
* Hidden accumulation
* Seller exhaustion
* Fake breakouts
* True reversals
* Momentum strength / weakness
* Smart money footprint
When combined with Heikin-Ashi smoothing, you get delta trends with way less noise and fewer fake flips.
---
# **📈 How to Actually Use It (The Edge)**
## **1. Spot True Trend vs. Fake Trend**
If **price goes up** but **CVD goes down**, that’s:
* Passive sellers absorbing
* A weak rally
* High probability of reversal
If **price pulls back** but **CVD keeps rising**, that’s:
* Secret accumulation
* A continuation setup
* Great dip-buy opportunity
**Rule of thumb:**
🔹 *Follow the CVD trend, not the price noise.*
---
## **2. Catch Reversals Early**
Watch for:
### **🔻 Bearish Reversal Signals**
* CVD makes a **lower high**
* Heikin Ashi CVD prints **red bodies with rising upper shadows**
* Price makes one final push up on low delta
This is classic distribution → the drop usually follows fast.
### **🔹 Bullish Reversal Signals**
* CVD forms a **higher low**
* HA CVD flips from red to green with full bodies
* Price still looks weak = bottom forming
This is exactly how pros catch bottoms early.
---
## **3. Identify Absorption Levels**
If price hits a level multiple times but CVD keeps climbing (or falling), that level is being defended.
Example:
* Price stalls at support
* CVD keeps rising
= **Buyers absorbing sells → high-probability bounce**
Opposite works for resistance.
---
## **4. Validate Breakouts**
A breakout with *weak or negative CVD* is usually a trap.
A breakout with **strong, rising HA CVD** is real.
If CVD diverges from the breakout direction → fade it.
If CVD confirms → ride it.
---
## **5. Use Heikin Ashi to Stay in Trends**
HA smoothing removes the nasty chop of raw delta data.
Look for:
* Consecutive **full-body teal candles = strong buying wave**
* Consecutive **full-body red candles = strong selling wave**
* Small-bodied candles after a trend = momentum dying
This keeps you in winners longer and cuts losers faster.
---
# **🎯 Practical Trading Playbook**
### **A) Long Setup**
1. Price pullback into support
2. CVD stays bullish or makes a higher low
3. HA CVD flips green or prints a strong body
4. Enter long
5. Stop under CVD structural low
### **B) Short Setup**
1. Price pushes into resistance
2. CVD forms bearish divergence
3. HA CVD prints red bodies
4. Enter short
5. Stop above CVD swing high
### **C) Chop Filter**
No clear HA CVD trend = avoid trading → stop donating money to the market.
---
# **🧠 Tips for Mastery**
* Use lower timeframe delta (1m–5m) for scalping entries
* Use a higher anchor timeframe (1D) to define direction
* When price trends but CVD is flat → expect a fakeout
* When CVD trends but price is flat → expect a breakout
* Trade WITH delta, fade AGAINST delta
---
# **⚠️ Important Notes**
* Crypto = full tick-by-tick volume → CVD is extremely accurate
* Stocks = depends on your broker/data vendor
* Futures = best signal-to-noise ratio
* If your symbol has no volume → indicator will warn you
---
# **📥 Recommended Settings**
* **Anchor timeframe**: 1D or 4H
* **Lower timeframe**: 1m, 3m, or 5m
* **Heikin Ashi**: ON for trend filtering, OFF for raw delta
---
# **🔥 Final Word**
Price can lie.
Delta usually doesn’t.
CVD + Heikin Ashi gives you the closest thing to reading the market’s heartbeat in real time.
Use it to confirm breakouts, detect reversals early, identify real trend strength, and avoid getting caught in manipulation.
If you learn to read CVD well…
you stop trading price, and start trading the **intent** behind the price.
Hidden Zone Detector AI - Crypto/Forex/StockHidden Zone Detector AI - Crypto Forex Stock
Hidden Zone Detector AI is a professional TradingView indicator designed to find hidden supply and demand zones across markets — crypto, forex and stocks — and surface high-probability areas earlier than classical pivot-only methods. It combines price structure analysis, volatility/ATR sizing, volume profiling and multi-mode AI heuristics (Fast / Balanced / Accurate) to generate prediction zones, highlight tested areas, and visually mark zone breakouts. Built with practical trader workflow in mind: configurable anti-repaint options, adaptable Light/Dark UI, clear labels, and candle-coloring for immediate visual context.
How it works
• Detects hidden zones by scanning pivot formations and finding internal “hidden” bars that represent real institutional activity (not just visible swing points).
• Scores zones by size (ATR-relative), volume, and touch characteristics to produce a strength percentage (Weak/Medium/Strong).
• AI heuristics aggregate price, momentum, moving averages, RSI/MACD signals and volume patterns to propose prediction zones — adjustable for speed vs. accuracy.
• Zones are drawn as persistent boxes with optional midlines, labels, and tailored styling when broken or tested.
Main advantages
• Early edge: finds hidden zones that often act before obvious pivots.
• Actionable visuals: labeled zones, color-coded candles, and breakout styling speed decision-making.
• Flexible AI modes: choose Fast for responsiveness, Balanced for day-to-day use, or Accurate for stricter signals.
• Anti-repaint controls: require confirmed bars for predictions to improve signal reliability.
• Multi-market ready: tuned for crypto, forex and stock chart behavior.
• Light/Dark friendly: UI color handling ensures labels remain readable on any chart background.
• Open & reusable: released under Mozilla Public License 2.0 (MPL-2.0) — use and adapt freely with attribution.
Best practices & tips
• Start with Balanced mode and sensitivity ~5; increase sensitivity for earlier but noisier predictions.
• Use prediction confirmation (Require AI Prediction Confirmation) for lower repaint risk.
• Combine zone reads with higher-timeframe context and orderflow/volume tools for stronger entries.
• Adjust max active zones and opacity to keep charts clean on lower timeframes.

Smart Money Volume Matrix [Ata]Smart Money Volume Matrix
The Smart Money Volume Matrix (SMV Matrix) is an advanced volume-spread analysis (VSA) dashboard and charting tool designed to identify significant market anomalies by analyzing the relationship between price extremes and volume flow.
Unlike traditional indicators that rely solely on moving averages or oscillators, this tool performs a "Snapshot Analysis" of a defined lookback period (default: 100 bars) to rank price action based on Order Flow Dominance. It isolates the Top 10 Highest and Lowest Close prices and scrutinizes the volume behind them to categorize market sentiment into four distinct phases: Distribution, No Demand, Absorption, and Exhaustion.
Core Logic & Methodology
The script operates on a Zero-Lag Snapshot Engine. It does not print historical signals bar-by-bar; instead, it evaluates the current market structure relative to the recent history (Lookback Period).
1. Ranking Engine: The script scans the lookback period to find the Top 10 Highest Closes and Top 10 Lowest Closes.
2. Volume Classification: For each ranked bar, it calculates the "Intrabar Buy/Sell Volume" (or approximates it using candle geometry if Intrabar data is unavailable).
3. Dominance Detection: It compares Buying Volume vs. Selling Volume to determine who is in control at critical price levels.
Signal Classifications (VSA Logic)
The indicator generates labels on the chart and updates the dashboard table based on the following logic:
1. At Price Tops (Resistance Areas):
- Distribution (Supply): High Price + High Total Volume + Sellers Dominant.
Interpretation: Indicates heavy institutional selling into rising prices. Often precedes a reversal.
- Buy Climax: High Price + High Total Volume + Buyers Dominant.
Interpretation: Extreme buying frenzy. While bullish, it often marks a "trap" or temporary top due to exhaustion.
- No Demand: High Price + Low Volume.
Interpretation: Prices drifted higher but lack institutional participation. A sign of weakness.
2. At Price Bottoms (Support Areas):
- Absorption: Low Price + High Total Volume + Buyers Dominant.
Interpretation: Institutional money is absorbing selling pressure (passive buying). A strong sign of accumulation.
- Panic Sell: Low Price + High Total Volume + Sellers Dominant.
Interpretation: Extreme fear. High volume at lows typically indicates capitulation and potential hands-changing.
- Exhaustion: Low Price + Low Volume.
Interpretation: Selling pressure has dried up. The market may float upward due to lack of sellers.
Key Features
- Dashboard Matrix Table:
Displays the exact Close Price, Buy/Sell Volume, and Market State (Group) for the Top 10 ranking bars.
Smart Footer: Automatically detects the active "Resistance Zone" (derived from G1 Distribution levels) and "Support Zone" (derived from G3 Absorption levels) and reports the current price status relative to these zones (e.g., "Testing Resistance", "Breakout", "At Support").
- Smart Zones (Auto S/R):
Automatically draws Support and Resistance boxes extending into the future based on the most significant volume clusters found in the rankings. Includes logic to detect "Flips" (e.g., when Support breaks, it is labeled as a flip to Resistance).
- Average Trend Channels:
Calculates a Linear Regression trend line based specifically on the coordinates of the Top 10 Highs and Top 10 Lows, providing a "Best Fit" channel for the current market structure.
- Visual Clarity:
Labels utilize a "Smart Stacking" algorithm to prevent overlap on the chart. Guide lines connect labels to their respective candles for precise identification.
Settings & Configuration
- Matrix Settings: Lookback Period (default 100 bars) and Top Rank Count.
- Volume Engine: Choose between "Intrabar (Precise)" for accurate order flow or "Geometry (Approx)" for standard volume estimation.
- Visuals: Toggle Table, Labels, Lines, Zones, and Trend Lines. Adjust transparency and font sizes.
IMPORTANT NOTE ON SNAPSHOT LOGIC
This indicator is designed as a Real-Time Dashboard. It continuously updates the "Top 10" list as new candles form. Therefore, a label that appears on a candle may disappear if that candle falls out of the Top 10 ranking or leaves the lookback window. This is intended behavior to ensure the chart always reflects the current most critical levels, rather than a historical record of past signals. It is best used for live market analysis rather than historical back testing.
Disclaimer: This tool is for educational and analytical purposes only. Volume analysis is subjective and should be used in conjunction with other methods of technical analysis.

Weighted RSI DivergenceWeighted RSI Divergence
A powerful divergence engine that grades every RSI divergence by strength, context, and confluence — helping you filter noise and focus only on the highest-probability reversal setups.
This script combines RSI divergences with five confirmation layers to produce confidence-weighted signals, clearer trade decisions, and alert-ready setups for both bullish and bearish reversals.
What This Indicator Detects
Bullish Divergence → Price makes a lower low while RSI makes a higher low
Bearish Divergence → Price makes a higher high while RSI makes a lower high
Confirmation Factors (Each Adds +1 to the Score)
Volume Spike: Above-average volume on the divergence bar
Trend Alignment: Divergence occurs in harmony with higher-timeframe trend dynamics
Key Level Proximity: Price tests significant support or resistance
Momentum Extremes: RSI reaches oversold/overbought thresholds
Candle Reversal Pattern: Engulfing, pin bar, or similar reversal structure
Confidence Scoring
1–2 → Low Confidence (gray)
3 → Medium Confidence (yellow)
4–5 → High Confidence (green/red)
Higher scores = higher-probability setups.
Visual Components
RSI plot with dynamic gradient coloring
Divergence lines mapped to RSI pivots
Signal labels showing confidence + factors
Background highlighting for high-confidence events
Real-time confidence meter for active bar conditions
Optional data table for factor-by-factor breakdown
Alerts Included
High-confidence bullish & bearish divergences
Medium-confidence signals
Any divergence meeting your minimum threshold
Best Practices
Prioritize setups with 4 or 5 confirmations
Use higher timeframes (4H, 1D, 1W) for more reliable signals
Combine with market structure and price action (S/R, HTF trend, liquidity zones)
Counter-trend divergences require stronger scores to validate
Final Notes
This script focuses on clarity, risk reduction, and selective trade timing. The confidence system helps distinguish weak divergences from high-probability reversal conditions — giving traders a structured, repeatable edge.

Volume Delta PROThis indicator show delta moves and producing it in a way that you can see what MADE the delta - buyers or sellers.
Important delta candles are also marked.
I also shows average delta and can be adjusted by reading data from lower time frames.
Weekday Close vs Open — Last N (per weekday)# Weekday Close vs Open - Last N Occurrences
This indicator distills every weekday's historical open-to-close behavior into a compact table so you can see how "typical" the current session is before the day even closes. It runs independently of your chart timeframe by pulling daily OHLCV data under the hood, tracking the last **N** completed occurrences for each weekday, and refreshing only when a daily bar closes. On daily charts you can also shade every past bar that matches today's weekday (excluding the in-progress session) to reinforce the pattern visually while the table remains non-repainting.
## What It Shows
- **Win/Loss/Tie counts** - how many of the last `N` occurrences closed above the open (wins), below (losses), or inside the tie threshold you define as "flat".
- **Win % heatmap** - the win column is color-coded (deep green > deep red) so you immediately recognize strong or weak weekdays.
- **Advanced metrics (optional)** - average daily volume plus the average percentage excursion above/below the open (`AvgUp%`, `AvgDn%`) for that weekday.
- **Totals row** - aggregates every weekday into one row to estimate overall hit rate and average stats across the entire data set.
- **Weekday shading (optional)** - on daily charts you can tint every bar that matches today's weekday (all Mondays, all Fridays, etc.) for instant pattern recognition.
## How It Works
1. The script requests daily OHLCV data (non-repainting) regardless of the chart timeframe.
2. When a new daily bar confirms, it packs that day's data into one of seven arrays (one per weekday). Each day contributes five floats (O/H/L/C/V) so trimming and statistics stay in lockstep.
3. A helper function (`f_dayMetrics`) scans daily history to compute average volume, average excursion above/below the open, and win/loss/tie counts for the requested weekday.
4. The table populates on the last bar of the chart session, respecting your advanced/totals toggles and keeping text at `size.normal`.
## Reading the Table
- **Win/Loss/Tie columns**: raw counts taken from your chosen `N`.
- **Win %***: excludes ties from the denominator so it reflects only decisive closes.
- **AvgUp% / AvgDn%**: typical intraday extension (high vs open, open vs low) in percent.
- **Avg Vol**: arithmetic mean of daily volume for that weekday.
- **TOTAL row**: provides a global win rate plus volume/up/down averages weighted by how many samples each weekday contributed.
## Practical Uses
- Spot weekdays that historically trend higher or lower before entering a trade.
- Compare current price action against the typical intraday range (`AvgUp%` vs today's move).
- Filter mean-reversion vs breakout setups based on the most reliable weekday patterns.
- Quickly gauge whether today is behaving "in character" by referencing the highlighted row or the optional whole-chart weekday shading.
> **Tip:** Use smaller `N` values (e.g., 10-20) for adaptive, recent behavior and larger values (50+) to capture longer-term seasonality. Tighten the tie threshold if you want almost every candle to register as win/loss, or widen it to focus only on meaningful moves.

Whale Activity Detector (V20 - Candle-Relative Diamonds)This indicator is to visualize the "footprints" of large institutional traders, often referred to as "whales." By monitoring spikes in trading volume relative to a long-term average, the indicator flags moments when significant capital is entering or exiting the market.
How the Indicator Works (The Logic)
Volume Threshold : It calculates a Moving Average (MA) of the recent volume (default 20 bars). This average is then multiplied by a Spike Multiplier (default 3.0x) to create a dynamic threshold.
Spike Detection : Any price bar whose total volume exceeds this threshold is flagged as a potential "Whale Activity" bar.
Direction Confirmation : The color of the signal is determined by the price action of that bar (close > open for buying/accumulation, or close < open for selling/distribution).
RSI VWAP EMA ON CHART1. Understand the components
VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price)
Green: price is above VWAP → bullish trend
Red: price is below VWAP → bearish trend
Blue: price exactly at VWAP → neutral
Acts as a dynamic trend line and support/resistance.
4 Moving Averages (MA1–MA4)
Customizable lengths and type (SMA or EMA).
Useful for trend confirmation and dynamic support/resistance.
Typically:
MA1 = fastest (short-term)
MA4 = slowest (long-term)
When price is above multiple MAs → strong bullish trend; below → bearish trend.
RSI Overlay with VWAP Alignment
RSI line normalized to price scale.
Background shading indicates momentum aligned with VWAP trend:
Green shading: RSI > 50 and price above VWAP → bullish momentum
Red shading: RSI < 50 and price below VWAP → bearish momentum
Gray areas: neutral or momentum does not align with VWAP.
2. Basic usage workflow
Trend Confirmation
Look at VWAP color: price above → bullish, below → bearish.
Check RSI + VWAP shading: green confirms bullish momentum, red confirms bearish momentum.
Check MA alignment: shorter MAs above longer MAs = stronger bullish trend; vice versa for bearish.
Entry Signals (Scalping)
Long (Buy) Setup
Price above VWAP (green)
RSI green shading (RSI > 50)
Shorter MAs above longer MAs (trend support)
Short (Sell) Setup
Price below VWAP (red)
RSI red shading (RSI < 50)
Shorter MAs below longer MAs
Exits / Stops
Exit if price closes against VWAP trend (e.g., price drops below VWAP during a bullish trade).
Use nearest MA support/resistance as stop-loss or take-profit zones.
3. Optional adjustments for scalping
RSI length / thresholds
Shorter RSI (7–10) → faster response for scalping.
Standard RSI (14) → smoother, fewer false signals.
MA lengths
Short-term: 20–50
Medium-term: 50–100
Long-term: 100–200
Can tweak for the timeframe you trade (1m, 5m, 15m).
Timeframe
VWAP works best on intraday charts (1m, 5m, 15m).
Use higher timeframe (e.g., 15m or 1h) for trend direction and lower timeframe (1m–5m) for entries.
4. Example Scalping Setup
Bullish setup (buy):
Price above VWAP → VWAP green
RSI > 50 and green shading

SWUltimate Sniper: SMT + AO + Money Flow
Overview This indicator is a comprehensive trading system designed to identify high-probability reversal points by combining three powerful concepts: Smart Money Techniques (SMT), Awesome Oscillator (AO) Momentum Divergences, and Macro Money Flow Analysis. It aims to filter out false signals by requiring confirmation from multiple technical factors before generating a signal.
Key Features & Logic
1. SMT Divergence (Smart Money Tool) The core of this indicator compares the current asset's price structure (Highs and Lows) against a benchmark symbol (Default: BTCUSDT).
Bullish SMT: When Bitcoin makes a Lower Low (LL), but the Altcoin makes a Higher Low (HL). This suggests underlying strength and accumulation in the Altcoin despite BTC's weakness.
Bearish SMT: When Bitcoin makes a Higher High (HH), but the Altcoin makes a Lower High (LH). This suggests weakness and distribution in the Altcoin despite BTC's strength.
2. Awesome Oscillator (AO) Confirmation To prevent premature entries based solely on price action, the indicator checks for momentum divergence on the Awesome Oscillator.
If the "AO Filter" option is enabled in settings, a signal (triangle) will only appear if both SMT Divergence and AO Divergence occur simultaneously (or within the same pivot window). This significantly increases the reliability of the setup.
3. Money Flow Dashboard A dashboard in the top-right corner provides real-time macro context to ensure you are trading with the trend.
USDT.D (Tether Dominance): Monitors whether capital is entering (Bullish) or leaving (Bearish) the crypto market.
BTC.D (Bitcoin Dominance): Monitors whether capital is flowing into Bitcoin or rotating into Altcoins (Altcoin Season).
How to Use
Buy Signal (Green Triangle): Look for a Green Triangle below the bar. Ideally, confirm this with the Dashboard showing "Money Flow: Entering" (Green) and "Trend: Flowing to Alts" (Green).
Sell Signal (Red Triangle): Look for a Red Triangle above the bar.
Dashboard: Use the dashboard as a trend filter. Do not long an Altcoin if USDT.D is spiking (Market Bearish).
Settings
Comparison Symbol: Select the benchmark asset (Default: BTCUSDT).
Pivot Period: Adjust the sensitivity of the divergence detection.
Use AO Filter: Toggle ON/OFF to require Awesome Oscillator confirmation for signals.
Dashboard: Toggle the visibility of the Money Flow panel.
Dobrusky Pressure CoreWhat it does & who it’s for
Dobrusky Pressure Core is a volume by time replacement for traders who care about which side actually controls each bar. Instead of just plotting total volume, it splits each bar into estimated buy vs sell pressure and overlays a custom, session-aware volume baseline. It’s built for discretionary traders who want more nuanced volume context for entries, breakouts, and pullbacks.
Core ideas
Buy/sell pressure split: Each bar’s volume is broken into estimated buying and selling pressure.
Dominant side highlighting: The dominant side (buy or sell) is always displayed starting from the bottom of the bar, so you can quickly see who “owned” that bar.
Median-based baseline: Uses the median of the last N bars (50 by default) to build a robust volume baseline that’s less sensitive to one-off spikes.
Session-aware behavior: Baseline is calculated from Regular Trading Hours (RTH) by default, with an option to include Extended Hours (ETH) and a control to force Regular data on higher timeframes.
Volume regimes: Three multipliers (1x, 1.5x, 2x by default) show normal, high, and extreme volume regions.
Flexible display: Baseline can be shown as lines or as columns behind the volume, with full color customization.
How the pressure logic works
For each bar, the script:
Adjusts the range for gaps relative to the prior close so the “true” traded range is more consistent.
Computes buy pressure as a proportion of the adjusted range from low to close.
Defines sell pressure as: total volume minus buy pressure.
Marks the bar as buy-dominant if buy pressure ≥ sell pressure, otherwise sell-dominant, and colors the dominant side from the bottom to at least the midpoint using the selected buy/sell colors.
In practice, this turns basic volume columns into bars where the internal split and dominant side are clearly visible, helping you judge whether aggressive buyers or sellers truly controlled the bar instead of just looking at the price action.
Volume baseline & session logic
The script builds a session-aware baseline from recent volume:
Baseline length: A rolling window (default 50 bars) is used to compute a median volume value instead of a simple moving average.
RTH-only by default: By default, the baseline is built from Regular Trading Hours bars only. During extended hours, the baseline effectively “freezes” at the last RTH-derived value unless you choose to include extended session data.
Extended mode: If you select Extended mode, the script builds separate rolling baselines for RTH and ETH trading, using the appropriate one depending on the current session.
Force Regular Above Timeframe: On timeframes equal to or higher than your chosen threshold, the baseline automatically uses Regular session data, even if Extended is selected.
Multipliers: Three adjustable multipliers (1x, 1.5x, 2x by default) create normal, high, and extreme volume bands for quick identification.
This lets you choose whether you want a pure RTH reference or a baseline that adapts to extended-session activity.
Example ways to use it
1. Replace standard volume bars
Add Dobrusky Pressure Core to your volume pane and hide the default volume if you prefer a clean look.
Use the colors and split to see at a glance whether buyers or sellers were dominant on each bar.
2. Pressure confirmation for entries
For longs (example concept; adapt to your own rules):
Require that the entry bar’s buy pressure is greater than the previous bar’s sell pressure , or
If the entry and prior bar are both buy-dominant, require that the entry bar has more buy pressure than the prior bar.
This helps avoid taking a long when buying pressure is clearly fading relative to what sellers recently showed. A mirrored idea can be used for short setups with sell pressure.
3. Context from baseline multipliers
Use ~1x baseline as “normal” volume.
Watch for bars at or above 1.5x baseline when you want to see increased participation.
Treat 2x baseline and above as “extreme” volume zones that may mark climactic or especially important bars.
In practice, the baseline and multipliers are best used as context and filters, not as rigid rules.
Settings overview
Display
- Show Volume Baseline: toggle the baseline and its levels on or off.
- Baseline Display: choose between Line or Bars for the baseline visualization.
Baseline Calculation
- Length: lookback for the median baseline (default 50, configurable).
- Baseline Session Data: choose Regular or Extended to control which session data feeds the baseline.
Session Controls
- Regular Session (Local to TZ): define your RTH window (e.g., 0930-1600).
- Session Time Zone: choose the time zone used for that window.
- Force Regular Above Timeframe: on higher timeframes, force the baseline to use Regular session data only.
Baseline Levels
- Show Level x Multiplier 1/2/3: toggle each volume regime level.
- Multiplier 1/2/3: define what you consider normal, high, and extreme volume (defaults: 1.0, 1.5, 2.0).
Colors
- Buy Volume / Sell Volume: choose colors for buy and sell pressure.
- Baseline Bars (Base / x2 / x3): colors when the baseline is drawn as columns.
- Baseline Line (Base / x2 / x3): colors when the baseline is drawn as lines.
Limitations & best practices
This is a decision-support and visualization tool, not a buy/sell signal generator.
Best suited to markets where volume data is meaningful (e.g., index futures, liquid equities, liquid crypto).
The usefulness of any volume-based metric depends on the underlying data feed and instrument structure.
Always combine pressure and baseline context with your own strategy, risk management, and testing.
Originality
Most volume tools either show total volume only or compare it to a simple moving average. Dobrusky Pressure Core combines:
An intrabar buy/sell pressure split based on a gap-adjusted price range.
A median-based, configurable baseline built from session-specific data.
Session-aware behavior that keeps the baseline focused on Regular hours by default, with the option to incorporate Extended hours and force Regular data on higher timeframes.
The goal is to give traders a richer, session-aware view of participation and pressure that standard volume bars and simple SMA overlays don’t provide, while keeping everything transparent and open-source so users can review and adapt the logic.
ueuito VWAP + VWAP Previous Day EndThis script is a fully featured VWAP indicator, based on the standard Volume-Weighted Average Price formula used by professional traders. It calculates the VWAP anchored to the selected period and also provides optional standard deviation or percentage-based bands.
In addition to the traditional VWAP logic, this version introduces an important enhancement:
⭐ Previous Day VWAP Closing Line (New Feature)
The script automatically calculates the final VWAP value of the previous trading day and plots it as a horizontal line at the start of each new session.
This line remains visible throughout the current day, allowing traders to quickly identify where the market closed relative to the VWAP on the prior day.
This added feature provides several advantages:
Highlights a key institutional reference level that is often used for mean-reversion setups.
Allows intraday traders to compare current price action with the previous session’s VWAP benchmark.
Helps identify support/resistance behavior around the prior VWAP close.
The line is customizable with options for:
Color
Width
Style (solid, dashed, dotted)
On/off toggle
✔ Summary of Features
Standard VWAP calculation with optional session or custom anchors
Three optional VWAP bands (standard deviation or percentage based)
Fully configurable appearance settings

Works on any intraday timeframe
Automatically resets at the start of each trading session
Montosca's Volume Delta Volume Delta Montosca - Indicator Summary
Volume Delta Montosca is a specialized Pine Script indicator for TradingView designed to analyze buying and selling pressure within each candle. It focuses on identifying high-impact volume events combined with strong directional dominance.
Key Features
1. Volume Delta Visualization
Displays volume bars split into Buy Volume (Blue) and Sell Volume (Red).
Includes centered text labels inside the bars showing the exact percentage of buy and sell volume for clear readability.
2. Signal Generation Logic (Triangles)
The indicator generates Buy (Blue Triangle) and Sell (Red Triangle) signals based on two strict criteria that must be met simultaneously:
Criterion A: Significant Volume (SMA Filter)
The current candle's volume must exceed a dynamic threshold.
This threshold is calculated using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the volume (e.g., 20 periods) multiplied by a user-defined Adjustment Factor (e.g., 150%).
Example: If the factor is 150%, the volume must be 1.5x higher than the average.
Criterion B: Directional Dominance
The candle must show strong internal conviction.
The Buy Percentage (for long signals) or Sell Percentage (for short signals) must exceed a specific Dominance Threshold (e.g., 70%).
3. Simplified Analysis
Alerts: Integrated alert conditions for both Buy and Sell signals for automated trading or notifications.
Volume Surge AlertVolume is often the fuel behind meaningful price moves. The Volume Surge Alert indicator highlights bars where volume explodes above its recent average, helping you spot accumulation, distribution, and breakout attempts before the price fully reacts.
Calculates a configurable simple moving average of volume to establish “normal” activity.
Flags bars where the current volume exceeds the SMA by a user-defined multiple (default 2×).
Colors the column and background on surge bars for quick visual confirmation.
Provides an alert condition so you can receive notifications the moment activity spikes.
Use it on any timeframe or market to monitor for unusual participation, confirm breakouts, or filter entries. Adjust the SMA length and surge multiple to match your market’s typical liquidity profile.
