Demand and Supply Zones Lite [Afnan]Are you looking to level up your trading game and spot potential turning points in the stock market? Introducing the Smart Money Demand and Supply Zones indicator, a powerful tool designed to identify opportunities created by the Smart money.
The Smart Money Demand and Supply Zones indicator is built upon the principles of Rally Base Rally (RBR), Rally Base Drop (RBD), Drop Base Rally (DBR), Drop Base Drop (DBD).
🔍 Key Details 🔍
The "Smart Money" concept refers to large institutional investors and professional traders who possess significant financial resources and expertise. The importance of smart money lies in their influence on market trends and price movements. Their actions and positions often serve as signals for retail traders and investors to make informed decisions.
Formation of Smart Money: Smart money is attracted to areas in the market where they can find favourable risk-to-reward opportunities.
1. Rally Base Rally (RBR) Zones: These zones occur after a rally (upward price movement), followed by a period of consolidation (base formation), and then another rally. Smart money often forms positions here as it suggests a strong uptrend continuation.
2. Rally Base Drop (RBD) Zones: In this case, there is a rally, followed by a base formation, but instead of another rally, the price drops. Smart money may position themselves here in anticipation of a potential trend reversal.
3. Drop Base Rally (DBR) Zones: These zones form when there is a drop in price, followed by a base formation, and then a rally. Smart money may take positions here, expecting a trend reversal to the upside.
4. Drop Base Drop (DBD) Zones: In this scenario, the price drops, then forms a base, but subsequently continues to drop. Smart money might take bearish positions here, anticipating further downward movement.
🚀 Pending Orders from Smart Money Zones: 🚀
When the price approaches these smart money zones, institutional investors often place remaining pending orders to enter the market.
By identifying RBR/DBR zones as potential buying opportunities and RBD/DBD zones as potential selling opportunities on price charts, retail traders can align their trades with smart money activities. Implementing proper risk management and confirming signals enhances the likelihood of successful trades by following the footsteps of institutional investors.

💎 Employing a Top-Down Approach and Multiple Time Frame Analysis: 💎
Let's delve into the concept of adopting a top-down approach combined with multiple time frame analysis in trading scenarios. It is consistently recommended to trade with the trend because, as the saying goes, "the trend is your friend." If you identify a demand zone on the chart but the overall trend is downward, it's crucial to confirm the stock's trend in higher timeframes. Avoid purchasing from the demand zone in such a scenario as you would be going against the trend. To consider buying from the demand zone, ensure that the overall trend is upward by checking the higher timeframe.
Similarly, if the higher timeframe trend is upward but the price is approaching a higher timeframe supply zone, refrain from buying in the lower timeframe. If the price reaches a higher timeframe supply zone, there is a likelihood that the price will face rejection from this zone.
If the price is significantly extended from the EMA 20 on a higher timeframe, for instance, if you plan to trade on a 30-minute timeframe and the price is considerably extended from the daily EMA 20, consider trading from zones that are closer to the daily EMA 20. When the price is extended from the higher timeframe EMA 20, it implies that the price is expensive, and there may be a tendency for it to return to the EMA 20. Therefore, it is advisable to trade from zones that are closer to the higher timeframe EMA 20 and avoid zones that are extended from the higher timeframe EMA 20.
For instance, imagine you're considering purchasing a stock that has reached a demand zone known as Rally Base Rally (RBR). If you identify a corresponding demand zone in a higher time frame located at the same position, and concurrently observe that the intermediate time frame indicates an upward trend, your potential for a successful trade is enhanced.
Conversely, if you spot a buying zone in a lower time frame, but notice a supply zone in the higher time frame at that exact position, the likelihood of a profitable trade decreases significantly. In such cases, it's prudent to steer clear of the lower time frame zone. This emphasizes the critical significance of employing a top-down approach or conducting a multiple time frame analysis.
Note: By Doing top down approach you can easily follow the footprints of smart money in the stock market or any other market by using this indicator and make well-informed trading decisions.
Remember, don't make decisions based only on one time frame. Check the overall trend of the stock and look at buying and selling points on bigger time scales. If you only use one time scale, your chances of making successful trades will be lower.

Advanced VSA: Trend and Range LevelsThe indicator is designed for traders who are more interested in market structures and price action using volumes. Analyzing volumes, key market levels, market phases (trend or range/sideways), and multiple timeframes can help the trader build a clearer and more comprehensive view of the market. The data analysis algorithm is developed based on VSA methods, elements of the ICT concept, and the results of my research to assist trader in gaining a better understanding of the market and uncovering information that might go unnoticed.
The key idea is to consider multiple timeframes in trading. Understanding larger market movements from higher timeframes can provide a deeper context when making trading decisions, aiming to assist in more effective entries and exits. This is achieved by identifying the trend and its support levels on multiple timeframes, identifying ranges and their current boundaries, as well as buyer and seller interest zones.
Key Features
Trend Identification: The indicator determines the trend and its current support level. All significant price &movements occur in the form of impulses (either by sellers or buyers). An impulse consists of one or several consecutive candlesticks, at least one of which has a closing price beyond the boundaries of the previous impulse. The indicator displays the base of the impulse and/or the entire impulse. The base of the impulse represents the trend's support level.
Range Identification: The indicator can identify ranges and their current boundaries. Institutional traders take positions within price ranges, and many market reversals occur after flats. A range is a sequential price movement up and down within a specific price range. A range is formed by a minimum of 4 points, 2 above and 2 below, and is defined by its boundaries. The indicator detects ranges based on two (two consecutive impulses in one direction) or three impulses (the first and third in one direction, and the second in the opposite direction). The indicator displays the current boundary points of the range and the level of protection after exiting the range and initiating a trend.
Buyer and seller zones within impulses: After the impulse ends, a correction occurs. It is advisable to look for entry points during this correction in the direction of the impulse from the zone of interest of the owner of the impulse: the buyer's zone for a long impulse and the seller's zone for a short impulse. A zone consists of a series of consecutive candlesticks grouped on the chart in a specific manner.
Multi-Timeframe Trend Identification: The indicator also identifies the trend on two higher timeframes and displays the two latest bases of impulses from those higher timeframes on the chart.
Additional Features
Identification of Test Levels and Effort. A test is the price's return to a zone or to a candle of effort, followed by a continuation in the direction of the initial price movement. It is characterized by the test level. An effort or effort candle is a single candle that is individually larger in volume than the previous 2.
Example Use Cases
You can display the base levels of impulses from a 4-hour time frame and a daily time frame on a 15-minute chart to keep track of important levels from higher timeframes.
By exploring different timeframes, you can identify consolidations (range/sideways movements) and trade within them in the direction of the trend from higher timeframes.
If the market is in a trending phase (the presence of a trend is determined by two consecutive impulses in the same direction), look for trades in the direction of the impulse, following these priorities:
When the impulse base level is protected by the host of the impulse.
During corrections, look for buy trades in the buyer's zone for an uptrend and sell trades in the seller's zone for a downtrend.
During corrections, look for buy trades from a buyer's effort candle for an uptrend and sell trades from a seller's effort candle for a downtrend.
If the market is in a consolidation phase (range), look for trades:
When the current or maximum/minimum historical boundaries of the consolidation (range) are protected, look for trades towards the opposite current boundary.
If the price exits the consolidation/range (closes outside all consolidation boundaries, including both current and historical boundaries), then during corrections, look for trades in the direction of the exit.
Settings
Trend: Display base levels of impulses and/or the entire impulse. Sideways Ranges (Sideways Markets): Display the required number of sideways ranges on the chart, along with protection levels for exiting the sideways range. There are two modes for finding sideways ranges. The first mode requires touching points. The second mode (advanced) does not require precise touching of points if there are increased volumes at the extreme points of the sideways range. Touching these volumes is sufficient for the price.
Zones: Display zones on the chart. Choose the types of displayed zones and their colors. They are divided into three types. The first type is the most promising for finding trades. Type 3 represents more aggressive trades.
Test Levels: Display test levels for zones and efforts on the chart. There are three types of test levels. The first type is the most promising for finding trades. Type 3 is not recommended for finding trades as it represents the most aggressive trades.
Higher Time Frames: Choose 2 timeframes and the types of displayed impulse base lines.
Delta Zones Buy/Sell PressureScript Description:
Delta Zones Buy/Sell Pressure Indicator
Description:
The "Delta Zones Buy/Sell Pressure" indicator, created by the original author "scarf", is a technical tool that unveils key areas of buying and selling pressure in the market. This indicator utilizes the concept of Delta, calculating differences between open, close, high, and low prices. When these differences exceed a threshold determined by the user-defined standard deviation, areas of intense buying (indicated by green boxes) and selling pressure (indicated by red boxes) on the chart are identified.
How It Works:
The indicator calculates Delta using various combinations of candle prices to determine buying and selling pressure. When Delta surpasses a certain level, indicated by the user-defined standard deviation, visual signals in the form of boxes on the chart are generated. These boxes highlight specific areas where buying or selling pressure is particularly strong, aiding traders in identifying potential entry and exit points in the market.
How to Use:
* When a green box is drawn, it indicates strong buying pressure in the market. This can be interpreted as a signal to consider long positions.
* When a red box is drawn, it indicates strong selling pressure in the market. This can be interpreted as a signal to consider short positions.
* Use these signals in combination with your own analysis and risk management strategies to make informed trading decisions.
Originality:
What makes this indicator original is its unique approach to identifying specific areas of buying and selling pressure. By calculating Delta in multiple ways and utilizing standard deviation as a filter, this indicator provides clear and concise visual signals about market activity. The combination of these features distinguishes it as a valuable tool for traders seeking a better understanding of market behavior. This modification differs from the original by displaying the information on the price chart with horizontal bars, below each delta, instead of an oscillator at the bottom similar to the volume indicator.
Final Recommendations:
Consider Market Trends:
Before making any trading decisions using the Delta Zones Buy/Sell Pressure Indicator, it is crucial to analyze the prevailing market trends. Assess the overall direction of the market, whether it's trending upward, downward, or moving sideways. Align your trades with the dominant trend to increase the probability of successful outcomes. The indicator's signals can be more reliable when they align with the broader market trend.
Evaluate Macro-Economic Factors:
Additionally, take into account macro-economic factors that could influence price movements. Factors such as economic indicators, geopolitical events, interest rate decisions, and global market sentiments can significantly impact the financial markets. Stay updated with relevant news and economic reports to anticipate potential market shifts. Understanding the broader economic context can help you interpret the indicator's signals within a more informed framework.
Practice Risk Management:
Regardless of the signals provided by the Delta Zones Buy/Sell Pressure Indicator, always implement effective risk management strategies. This includes setting stop-loss orders, diversifying your portfolio, and only risking a small percentage of your trading capital on each trade. By managing your risk, you can protect your investments and ensure longevity in the market, even during volatile periods.
Continuous Learning and Adaptation:
Financial markets are dynamic and constantly evolving. Continuously educate yourself about new trading strategies, technical analysis tools, and economic developments. Stay open to adapting your trading approach based on changing market conditions. Regularly reviewing your trading strategy and adjusting it according to your experiences and market feedback can significantly enhance your trading performance over the long term.
Seek Professional Advice if Necessary:
If you are uncertain about specific market trends, indicators, or economic factors, don't hesitate to seek guidance from financial advisors or professionals. Their expertise can provide valuable insights and help you make well-informed decisions, especially in complex or uncertain market environments.
By incorporating these recommendations into your trading approach, you can enhance your decision-making process, mitigate risks, and increase your overall chances of successful trading outcomes. Remember, the key to successful trading lies not only in the tools you use but also in your ability to interpret them within the broader market context.
Flux Charts MTF Supply and Demand Zones (Premium)Indicator Overview
The Multi-Timeframe Supply & Demand Zones indicator by Flux Charts displays supply and demand zones on multiple timeframes with two different zone detection methods. These zones are commonly known as areas where there are lots of buyers/sellers present in the market.
Adaptive Detection Method
AMEX:SPY 5m timeframe, October 8 2023
Indicator Settings: (Timeframe: Chart & 15m, Method: Adaptive, Zone Multiplier: 1)
Many times supply and demand scripts try and precisely define conditions that qualify for supply and demand zones. People, however, when locating supply and demand zones manually generally do not take a quantitative approach, rather looking for qualities in price action that have generalized qualities and trends. The adaptive algorithm uniqueness comes from adapting the human approach to work computationally. It generalizes the qualities of supply and demand zones and locates areas in the chart with an acceptable similarity. Specifically, it looks for consolidated areas within the chart that are preceded by a rise or fall in price. The rise or fall length has to be a certain ratio to the consolidation length. If the criteria are met it will draw the zone, if a zone already exists at that price level it will ignore it or merge them if they are different timeframes. This results in a much more consistent ability to identify areas of supply and demand.
Basic Detection Method
The basic detection method looks for areas where price made drastic movements within a small period of time, which could indicate a high level of buyers/sellers at the spot. Thus, these zones are formed and can be used as areas of trading where money is going in/out of the markets.
Multi-Timeframe (MTF) S&D
Flux Charts supply and demand script utilizes MTF. This allows for displaying zones from different timeframes on one chart. Utilizing higher timeframes is a common practice in trading, and it can be easy to forget about key levels & zones on higher timeframes which could cause reversals/bounces.
Here is an example of a 15 minute supply zone formed on the NASDAQ, and with this indicator, you can also see this same 15 minute supply zone while being on a 5 minute candlestick chart, since you have the 15 minute zones enabled in the settings. This indicator offers supply & demand zones on multiple timeframes including the 5 minute, 15 minute, 30 minute, 1 hour, and 4 hour.

Psychological Support/Resistence [BigBeluga]The Psychological Support/Resistance indicator aims to provide the user with hypothetical support and resistance zones that are likely to provoke a strong reaction in price, either in both directions, providing good bouncing zones or significant movements once those levels are breached.
🔶 CALCULATION
The script takes into consideration the total number of sequential candles moving in the same direction, as determined by the user's settings. When this sequence is identified, a level is created.
A level is considered broken when the candle's close is above the top/bottom of the level.
Users have the option to select the width of the area based on the Average (AVG), Open, or Close.
AVG will provide the average width of the level of the area.
Close will offer a broader range to work with.
Open will provide a very narrow area.
🔶 METHODOLOGY
The idea behind these areas is that the price will be more likely to produce either a substantial move in the ongoing direction or, when breached, a strong price reaction.
The more the support level is touched or tested, the more likely it is to break.
The longer it has been since its creation and the less it has been tested, the more likely it is to offer strong support or resistance.
Wicks starting to close above the level will indicate a potential breakout to the upside or downside if a candle manages to close above it.
🔶 INPUTS
Users have the option to determine the number of sequential candles.
Users also have the option to decide how many zones to display on the chart.
Color changes are possible.
The possibility to show volume on the creation of the zone is included."
Supply and Demand Anchored [LuxAlgo]The Supply and Demand Anchored indicator is an anchored version of the popular Supply and Demand Visible Range indicator. Once adding the indicator to the chart, users need to manually select the starting and ending points for the indicator's calculation. The estimated supply/demand zones are then extended.
🔶 USAGE
The proposed indicator makes use of the same method highlighted in previous posts (see related scripts section below) to estimate supply and demand zones.
When adding the indicator to the chart, users will be prompted to select a starting and ending point for the calculation of the supply and demand zones, click on your chart to select those points.
Once calculated, each zone/level will be extended to the right of the chart. These can be used as support/resistance zones. Clicking on one of the graphical elements of the indicator or the indicator title will highlight the starting and ending calculation points, these can be dragged to be set at different locations.
🔶 SETTINGS
Threshold %: Percentage of the total visible range volume used as a threshold to set supply/demand areas. Higher values return wider areas.
Resolution: Determines the number of bins used to find each area. Higher values will return more precise results.
Intra-bar TF: Timeframe used to obtain intra-bar data.

Incomplete Session Candle - Incomplete Timeframe Candle Marker The "Incomplete Session Candle - Incomplete Timeframe Candle Marker" is an advanced tool tailored for technical analysts who understand the importance of accurate timeframes in their charting. While the indicator is not limited to the Indian market, its genesis is rooted in the nuances of trading sessions like those in India, which span 375 minutes from 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM.
Key Features:
Detects if the current timeframe is intraday (minutes or hours).
Calculates the expected duration of the candle for the chosen timeframe.
Highlights candles that don't achieve their expected session duration by placing a cross shape above the bar.
Compatible across various intraday timeframes, aiding traders in spotting discrepancies promptly.
Why We Made This: Not Just for India:
While we looked at the Indian market, this indicator works everywhere. Regular timeframes like 30 minutes, 1 hour, and 2 hours often end with incomplete candles, especially at the end of the trading day. For example:
A 30-minute timeframe makes 13 candles, but the last one is only 15 minutes long.
A 1-hour timeframe shows 7 candles, but the last one is just the last 15 minutes.
By switching to different timeframes like 25 minutes, 75 minutes, and 125 minutes, you get more complete information for better trading decisions. Learn more about this in our article: "Power of 25, 75, and 125-Minute Timeframes in the Indian Market", recognized by Trading View's Editors' Pick.
Benefits:
The indicator extends its benefits even to users without access to certain timeframes. It accommodates traders using a 1-hour timeframe (pertaining to Indian traders). By employing this indicator, traders consistently remain mindful of incomplete candles within their chosen timeframe
For those who utilize concepts like RBR, RBD, DBR, and DBD, this indicator is paramount. An incomplete candle can skew analysis, leading to potential misinterpretations of base or leg candles.
Final thoughts:
In markets like the Indian stock market, adopting such a tool is not just beneficial, but necessary. Whether you have access to unconventional timeframes or are using traditional ones, recognizing and accounting for the limitations of incomplete candles is critical & it's important to know if your candles fit the timeframe properly. This indicator gives you a better view of the market, which helps you make smarter trades.

Supply And DemandThis supply and demand indicator uses sessions, volume spikes, higher timeframe price action and other volume calculations to spot areas on the chart where price will likely react. From the 1 minute and below charts to the daily and up charts, you can get excellent levels for any timeframe.
Why Use Supply And Demand?
One of the safest ways to trade is to wait for price to enter an area of interest where price should react. When we play reversals off of these areas, you increase the likelihood that your trade will be profitable because there was previous price action that told you that the current level is one where price will react. So we look for reversals at or very near these levels to enter into scalp or swing trade positions and look to exit that position when price is at or near the next major supply and demand level.
How To Use
The strategy with this indicator is to wait for price action to reach the levels shown by this supply and demand indicator and then enter trades at these levels, looking for a reversal. The thicker lines and the lines that are from the highest timeframes will be the most important levels on the chart. There is a table on the chart that will help you identify what timeframe the levels are using, with the color of that line next to it for easy identification.
The default settings are designed for scalping the 1-5 minute charts, so there are more levels turned on than necessary if you are using higher timeframes than 5 minutes. If you are using higher timeframes, make sure to turn off some of the lower timeframe levels so that it doesn’t clog up your charts. On the daily timeframe and above, many of the levels are coded to not turn on so that you don’t have to turn them off manually, but be aware that you will need to adjust your charts to suit your preferences, especially if you are on anything above the 5 minute chart.
For scalping, wait for price to react from the supply and demand levels by showing wicks, struggling to break through or getting reversal candles at those levels. Ride those moves to the next major supply and demand area before taking profit. You may want to turn on sessions and some of the lower timeframe levels as well if there are big gaps on the chart that are not suitable for scalping.
For swing trading, you will want to turn some of the lower timeframe and session levels off. Leave it to only higher timeframe OHLC lines and volume spike levels. Then you can swing moves that reverse off of the supply and demand lines.
Customization
This indicator is fully customizable. You can turn on or off any of the levels as well as increase the number specific levels so your charts suit your preferences.
All of the levels used are color coded individually so you can easily tell which type of level it is and these colors can be changed within the settings to suit your preferences. These colors are also reflected in the line identification table that show you exactly which color each type of level is.
There are toggles for the line identification table and session identification table as well if you don’t want them on your chart.
Types Of Levels Used
This indicator uses 4 different types of levels that I have found to be extremely influential on the price action. They are: volume spikes, higher timeframe price action, country based trading sessions and the VWAP. All of these levels have proven to be very important levels in my testing and are very helpful in spotting reversal areas.
Volume Spikes
This indicator is looking for the largest volume spikes and plotting the levels where that volume came in. It checks for the highest volume spikes across multiple different lengths of candles so that you get recent levels as well as the most important levels in the past. There are volume spike calculations for your current chart timeframe, 1 hour charts, 4 hour charts, daily charts, weekly charts, and monthly charts. Each of these looks for volume spikes across various lengths of candles for each timeframe and is color coded so you can identify which levels are which easily. The weekly and monthly volume spike levels are fatter than the normal volume spike levels with a line width of 2 to signify their importance.
OHLC Higher Timeframe Candles
This script plots levels of higher timeframe candles since price usually reacts very strongly to these levels. The levels it will produce are the high, low, open and close of the most recent closed candle of each higher timeframe. You can adjust these to show as many or as few previous HTF candles as you would like. The higher timeframe candles available to use are as follows: 1 hour, 4 hour, daily, 3 day, weekly, monthly, quarterly and yearly. The monthly, quarterly and yearly levels are fatter than the normal levels with a line width of 2 to signify their importance.
Trading Sessions
Trading sessions are very important levels because the market makers of different parts of the world are typically positioning themselves at these specific times. The number of each trading session line can be adjusted to show more or less levels depending on your preference. When you adjust the number, it will affect all lines that are enabled for that specific session. The levels available for each Tokyo, London & New York session are as follows: session premarket open, regular session open, session close, and session high & low. The session close boxes are fatter than the others with a line width of 2 to signify its importance.
VWAP & Previous Close
We all know that the VWAP aka Volume Weighted Average Price is a very important level on any chart, so we included this level as a default. However, we decided to take this a step further and include the previous daily session’s VWAP closing price and plot those levels. These are extremely important levels that you should pay very close attention to, along with the other levels mentioned above. The market makers are hedging their positions based on these levels and you will typically see very strong reactions to these levels, especially in the first hour when the markets open up. The VWAP and previous session VWAP close levels can be turned on or off and the default for the number of previous VWAP session close prices is set to 5. These levels are fatter lines because they are extremely important, so make sure to pay attention to them!
Line & Session Identification Tables
There are two tables to help you identify what is on the chart. The first is a large table in the top right that shows you the color and type of each line that is turned on so you can easily identify which lines are which. The second table is a small one at the bottom center of the chart that tells you which trading session we are currently in and what color that session is on the chart. These tables can be turned on or off and you can also change where they are on the chart by adjusting them at the bottom of the settings page.
Markets
This Supply And Demand indicator can be used on any market with price data such as stocks, crypto, forex and futures.
Timeframes
This Supply And Demand indicator can be used on any timeframe, from the second charts all the way up to the yearly charts.
Probability Box Rule of Thirds [PPI]█ Probability Box Rule of Thirds
The Probability Box Rule of Thirds , is a visual indicator that helps traders identify possible overbought and oversold conditions. It does this by dividing the price range – highest high minus the lowest low of a given lookback period or date range – into thirds. Each third has distinct probability characteristics and when combined represent a probability box.
We have spent years refining the probability box concept, and have previously published a How To on Trading View – "How to Trade Probability Ranges – The Critical Rule of 1/3" which can be found here:
To quickly summarize the How To – when using the Rule of Thirds , you are using a combination of statistics, probabilities of success, and prior price action to determine when to enter a trade. The visual range division helps remove subjectivity and clearly shows when the trading odds are stacked in your favor. By identifying and taking higher probability trades, you have a higher chance of success as trading is all about probability and risk management.
Implementing the Rule of Thirds starts with finding an instrument that is consolidating and identifying the nearest important support and resistance levels based on your targeted trading timeframe or lookback period.
The range between the support and resistance levels is divided into thirds to form three zones within the consolidation range.
When going LONG , you want to BUY in the bottom third of the range. Once you buy, your objective is to hold during the middle third and sell when the price enters the top third.
When you buy in the lower third, there's a 66.6% probability of success. If you buy in the middle third, you only have a 50% / 50% chance of success. Going long in the top third of the range gives you a 33.3% chance of success as you are already close to the identified resistance level.
When going SHORT , the sequence and odds are reversed. You want to SELL in the top third of the range, hold the middle third and exit in the bottom third of the range. This gives you a 66.6% chance of success when entering in the top third, a 50% / 50% chance when entering in the middle third, and a 33.3% chance in the bottom third given you are already close to the identified support level.
When the price lies in the middle third, the even 50% / 50% odds provide no probability edge and a trader is better off waiting until the price reaches the upper or lower thirds of the price range.
The Rule of Thirds allows us to quickly visually evaluate trades based on probabilities, selectively enter trades that have the highest odds of success, and avoid likely losing trades. The Rule of Thirds gives you confidence to hold trades based on prior trading ranges and provides clear levels where the prices are likely to either reverse or start trending.
The Probability Box Rule of Thirds automatically implements the first two steps of the Rule of Thirds by using the highest high and lowest low of a given lookback period to identify the support and resistance levels, and automatically divides the range into thirds. The rest of the Rule of Thirds rules remain the same.
Just having the price within the bottom thirds or top thirds, however, does not mean the price will immediately reverse. The GE chart below is an example of a stock that remained 'stuck' in the upper thirds of the price range for an extended amount of time:
And the CVS chart below is an example where the price is 'stuck' in the lower thirds of the price range:
While the price is in the upper or lower thirds, it is very important that the trader should use other indicators to identify when a significant trend reversal occurs. Once a trend reversal event happens, the trader either enters a trade AND/OR exits a trade if already in one.
When the price exceeds the bounds of the probability box, there are three possible outcomes – a strong continuation trend, the price consolidates around the probability box edge, or a trend reversal. Your favorite indicators will help determine which event is happening.
The CVS chart above is a good example of the probability box being exceeded with the last bar. The price exceeding the price range is temporary event as the price range will expand to encompass the revised price range on the next trading day.
█ Indicator Features
Each supported timeframe – Monthly, Weekly, and Daily – allows the selection of an appropriate lookback period for your trading style. The defaults are a good starting point for swing trading and long-term investing. You many need to experiment to find the optimal lookback period for your trading style.
Even if you only day trade, the Probability Box Rule of Thirds with the appropriate lookback periods can help you visualize the bigger picture of where the instrument is heading.
When viewing the charts, you can find the currently selected lookback period above the upper edge of the price range.
The indicator will display a dotted yellow line at 50% of the price range and show the line's value when requested.
The visibility of the actual thirds and border price values are controlled by the " Show Probability Box Values " checkbox. You may need to expand the chart's right margin to see the values.
The " Show Internal Labels " checkbox controls the display of the internal ⅓ Division labels and the percentage odds, along with the 50% label. This option by default is set to off.
The " Show Error Messages " checkbox controls the display of error messages and by default is turned on. Turn off to prevent error messages from being shown on intraday timeframes. Save as indicator default to prevent having to turn off this setting each time added to chart.
The color and transparency controls allow the user to modify the colors used for each third. The default settings are optimized for use with a DARK background.
█ Implementation Notes
IMPORTANT - the Probability Box Rule of Thirds is set up to only handle Monthly, Weekly and Daily charts. This is intentional as the indicator is designed to be used for safer multiple day and longer swing trades. When viewed on intraday charts, the indicator will be hidden.
The Probability Box Rule of Thirds uses a rolling window of the equivalent number of bars for the lookback period rather than relying on the bar starting and ending dates. This allows the use of a standard number of days in the selected lookback window across various instruments and ensures fast, efficient calculations.
The lookback periods are adjusted when non-standard timeframe multipliers are used – e.g., a 12M chart timeframe and a 3-year lookback period will result in a 3 bar lookback. Fractional bars in this calculation are rounded up and any incompatible lookback period and chart timeframe combination will generate a runtime error.
In summary, the Probability Box Rule of Thirds automates and visually identifies overbought and oversold areas, which combined with the Rule of Thirds probability risk profiles, increases your odds of success through better trade selections and higher confidence in your trades.

Supply and Demand Daily [LuxAlgo]The Supply and Demand Daily indicator displays daily supply and demand areas on the user's chart. These areas are constructed using the market data within a previous daily interval.
This script makes use of the same logic as our previous Supply and Demand Visible Range indicator .
🔶 USAGE
The supply/demand areas & levels displayed by the indicator aim to provide potential support/resistance levels for users. Supply areas highlight where buyers are willing to exit the market and sell the asset, thus providing resistance and potentially causing prices to reverse or bounce back downwards, while demand areas highlights where buyers were willing to purchase the asset, thus providing support and potentially causing prices to reverse or bounce back upwards.
Historical areas allow the user to study the evolution of supply/demand from one day to another. Wider areas highlight prices avoiding reverting to this area, while thinner areas highlight prices returning more frequently to them.
Trends can be determined by looking at the price position relative to the previous day's supply/demand areas. Price breaking down from the demand zone is indicative of a downtrend, while price breaking above the supply zone is indicative of an uptrend.
Pullback/throwback scenarios can also be common using this indicator.
🔶 SETTINGS
Threshold %: Percentage of the total visible range volume used as a threshold to set supply/demand areas. Higher values return wider areas.
Resolution: Determines the number of bins used to find each area. Higher values will return more precise results.
Intra-bar TF: Timeframe used to obtain intra-bar data.

Demand & Supply Zone Scoring: Rally Base & Drop ConceptDemand & Supply Zone Scoring Indicator
The Demand & Supply Zone Scoring indicator is designed to calculate the Trade Strength Score based on the concepts of demand and supply zones, specifically RBR (Rally Base Rally), RBD (Rally Base Drop), DBD (Drop Base Drop), and DBR (Drop Base Rally).
The Demand & Supply Zone Scoring indicator is specifically designed to facilitate a top-down approach with multiple timeframe analysis. It considers the higher timeframe (HTF) for curve analysis, intermediate timeframes (ITF) for trend analysis, and lower timeframes (LTF) for zone-specific analysis.
The indicator provides a table displayed on the chart, offering valuable information for analysis. Let's go through each row of the table:
1. Location:
This row represents the analysis of the curve on the higher time frame (HTF) to identify key levels. It determines whether the price is in a retail area (high on the curve) or a wholesale area (low on the curve). Trading within the wholesale area is considered a strong sign.
2. Trend:
This row focuses on the intermediate time frame (ITF) trend. It indicates whether the trend is upward or downward. If the ITF trend is up and you intend to buy, it suggests a strong point.
3. Achievement:
This row analyzes the achievement of the zone on the lower time frame (LTF). It considers whether the leg-out candle or follow-through candles of the zone have broken any opposite side zone or pivot level. A breakout in the opposite direction is seen as an excellent point.
4. Strength:
This row assesses the strength of the zone on the lower time frame (LTF) where the trade is planned. It looks at the strength of the leg-out candle, such as whether it's a gap candle, an exciting candle, or a candle with follow-through. A strong leg-out candle indicates an excellent point.
5. Time:
This row evaluates the time spent by base candles inside the zone on the lower time frame (LTF). It considers the number of base candles and the duration spent in the zone. Typically, 1 to 3 base candles are seen as strong, while more than 6 base candles receive 0 points.
6. Reward-to-Risk Ratio (RR):
This row focuses on the Risk-to-Reward (RR) ratio of the zone on the lower time frame (LTF) where the trade is planned. It compares the potential reward to the risk. A higher RR ratio, such as 1:3 or greater, is considered excellent.
7. Freshness:
This row analyzes the freshness of the zone on the lower time frame (LTF). It indicates whether the zone is new or has been tested multiple times. A fresh zone or one that has been tested only once is preferable.
Furthermore, it's important to mention that you have the flexibility to customize the text for each parameter according to your specific requirements. The table is designed to be fully customizable, allowing you to adapt the wording to your preferences and trading strategy.
This customization feature ensures that the indicator aligns with your personal trading approach and makes it easier for you to interpret and analyze the information provided in the table.
Additionally, please note that only the total score is displayed in the table on the chart by default. This is to avoid any visibility issues caused by displaying all the parameters. However, if you wish to see all the parameters in the table on the chart, you can easily enable them through the settings.
By enabling the parameters, you will have a comprehensive view of each factor's contribution to the Trade Strength Score directly on the chart.
By utilizing this indicator, calculating the Trade Strength Score becomes easier, providing a comprehensive analysis of various factors that influence trading decisions.
This indicator is developed by Afnan Tajuddin to assist fellow traders in conducting a top-down approach in an effective and efficient manner.

Intraday Intensity ModesIntraday Intensity Index was created by David Bostian and its use was later featured by John Bollinger in his book "Bollinger on Bollinger Bands" . It is categorically a volume indicator and considered to be a useful tool for analyzing supply and demand dynamics in the market. By measuring the level of buying and selling pressure within a given trading session it attempts to provide insights into the strength of market participants' interest and their aggressiveness in executing trades throughout the day. It can be used in conjunction with Bollinger Bands® or other envelope type indicators as a complimentary indicator to aid in trying to identify potential turning points or trends.
Intraday intensity is calculated based upon the relationship between the price change and the volume of shares traded during each daily interval. It aims to capture the level of buying or selling activity relative to the overall volume. A high intraday intensity value suggests a higher level of buying or selling pressure, indicating a more active and potentially volatile market. Conversely, a low intraday intensity value indicates less pronounced trading activity and a potentially quieter market. Overall, intraday intensity provides a concise description of the intensity of trading activity during a particular trading session, giving traders an additional perspective on market dynamics. Note that because the calculation uses volume this indicator will only work on symbols where volume is available.
While there are pre-existing versions within community scripts, none were found to have applied the calculations necessary for the various modes that are presented within this version, which are believed to be operating in the manner originally intended when first described by Bostian and again later by Bollinger. When operating in default modes on daily or lower chart timeframes the logic used within this script tracks the intraday high, low, close and volume for the day with each progressing intraday bar.
The BB indicator was included on the top main chart to help illustrate example usage as described below. The Intraday Intensity Modes indicator is pictured operating in three different modes beneath the main chart:
• The top pane beneath the main chart shows the indicator operating as a normalized 21 day II% oscillator. A potential use while in this mode would be to look for positive values as potential confirmation of strength when price tags the upper or lower Bollinger bands, and to look for negative values as potential confirmation of weakness when price tags the upper or lower Bollinger bands.
• The middle pane shows the indicator operating as an "open ended" cumulative sum of II. A potential use while in this mode would be to look for convergence or divergence of trend when price is making new highs or lows, or while price is walking the upper or lower Bollinger bands.
• The bottom pane shows the indicator operating in standard III mode, which provides independent values per session.
Indicator Settings: Inputs tab:
Osc Length : Set to 1 disables oscillation, values greater than 1 enables oscillation for II% (Intraday Intensity percent) mode.
Tootip : Hover mouse over (i) to show recommended example Settings for various modes.
Cumulative : When enabled values are cumulatively summed for the entire chart and indicator operates in II mode.
Normalized : When enabled a rolling window of Osc Length values are summed and normalized to the rolling window's volume.
Intrabar : When enabled price range and volume are evaluated for intensity per bar instead of per day which is a departure from the original
concept. Whenever this setting is enabled the indicator should be regarded as operating in an experimental mode.
Colors For Up Down : Sets the plot colors used, may be overridden in Settings:Style tab.
Styles / Width : Sets the plot style and width used, may be overridden in Settings:Style tab.
This indicator is designed to work with any chart timeframe, with the understanding that when used on timeframes higher than daily the indicator becomes "IntraPeriod" intensity, for example on weekly bars it would be "IntraWeek" intensity. On Daily or lower timeframes the indicator operates as "IntraDay" intensity and is being updated on each bar as each day progresses. If the experimental setting Intrabar is enabled then the indicator operates as "IntraBar" intensity and is no longer constrained to daily or higher evaluations, for example with Intrabar enabled on a 4H timeframe the indicator would operate as "Intra4H" intensity.

Supply and DemandThis is a "Supply and Demand" script designed to help traders spot potential levels of supply (resistance) and demand (support) in the market by identifying pivot points from past price action.
Differences from Other Scripts:
Unlike many pivot point scripts, this one offers a greater degree of customization and flexibility, allowing users to determine how many ranges of pivot points they wish to plot (up to 10), as well as the number of the most recent ranges to display.
Furthermore, it allows users to restrict the plotting of pivot points to specific timeframes (15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, and daily) using a toggle input. This is useful for traders who wish to focus on these popular trading timeframes.
This script also uses the color.new function for a more transparent plotting, which is not commonly used in many scripts.
How to Use:
The script provides two user inputs:
"Number of Ranges to Plot (1-10)": This determines how many 10-bar ranges of pivot points the script will calculate and potentially plot.
"Number of Last Ranges to Show (1-?)": This determines how many of the most recent ranges will be displayed on the chart.
"Limit to specific timeframes?": This is a toggle switch. When turned on, the script only plots pivot points if the current timeframe is one of the following: 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, or daily.
The pivot points are plotted as circles on the chart, with pivot highs in red and pivot lows in green. The transparency level of these plots can be adjusted in the script.
Market and Conditions:
This script is versatile and can be used in any market, including Forex, commodities, indices, or cryptocurrencies. It's best used in trending markets where supply and demand levels are more likely to be respected. However, like all technical analysis tools, it's not foolproof and should be used in conjunction with other indicators and analysis techniques to confirm signals and manage risk.
A technical analyst, or technician, uses chart patterns and indicators to predict future price movements. The "Supply and Demand" script in question can be an invaluable tool for a technical analyst for the following reasons:
Identifying Support and Resistance Levels : The pivot points plotted by this script can act as potential levels of support and resistance. When the price of an asset approaches these pivot points, it might bounce back (in case of support) or retreat (in case of resistance). These levels can be used to set stop-loss and take-profit points.
Timeframe Analysis : The ability to limit the plotting of pivot points to specific timeframes is useful for multiple timeframe analysis. For instance, a trader might use a longer timeframe to determine the overall trend and a shorter one to decide the optimal entry and exit points.
Customization : The user inputs provided by the script allow a technician to customize the ranges of pivot points according to their unique trading strategy. They can choose the number of ranges to plot and the number of the most recent ranges to display on the chart.
Confirmation of Other Indicators : If a pivot point coincides with a signal from another indicator (for instance, a moving average crossover or a relative strength index (RSI) divergence), it could provide further confirmation of that signal, increasing the chances of a successful trade.
Transparency in Plots : The use of the color.new function allows for more transparent plotting. This feature can prevent the chart from becoming too cluttered when multiple ranges of pivot points are plotted, making it easier for the analyst to interpret the data.
In summary, this script can be used by a technical analyst to pinpoint potential trading opportunities, validate signals from other indicators, and customize the display of pivot points to suit their individual trading style and strategy. Always remember, however, that no single indicator should be used in isolation, and effective risk management strategies should always be employed.
Strong Demands & Supplies + Liquidity | Zonas de Compra e VendaThis indicator is inspired on the Smart Money Concepts indicator (Credits to @LuxAlgo) and it was optimized to show only the most relevant demand and supply zones (premium) on every time frame - but on higher time frames (1H and above) the zones are more relevant and stronger, meaning these zones can handle the price for longer time.
I've added a new feature that includes the Liquidity lines in order to add more confluence and importance to a demand or supply zone: when a demand or supply zone has strong liquidity (like weekly or monthly) next to it means that zone can be a strongest price target.
- Blue Line: Daily liquidity
- Yellow Line: Weekly Liquidity
- Purple Line: Monthly Liquidity
Main Features:
- Displays the most relevant demand and supply zones (green and red boxes) and which ones are strong and weak
- Displays the relevant change of character and break of structure
- Displays the previous day highest price and previous day lowest price
- Display imbalances between sell and buy orders (purple boxes)
- Displays the liquidity areas with lines on each point.
- It works for Forex and Cryptocurrency as well.
Portuguese:
Este indicador é inspirado no Smart Money Concepts (Créditos para @LuxAlgo) e foi otimizado para mostrar apenas as zonas de procura e oferta mais relevantes em cada time frame - mas em time frames maiores as zonas são mais relevantes e mais fortes.
Adicionei uma nova funcionalidade que inclui as linhas de Liquidez de forma a adicionar mais confluência e importância a uma zona de procura ou oferta: quando uma zona de procura ou oferta tem forte liquidez (como semanal/linha amarela ou mensal/linha roxa) junto a ela significa que aquela zona pode ser um alvo de preço mais forte.
- Linha Azul: Liquidez diária
- Linha Amarela: Liquidez Semanal
- Linha Roxa: Liquidez Mensal
Principais características:
- Exibe as zonas de procura e oferta mais relevantes (zonas a verde e zonas a vermelho) e quais delas são fortes e fracas
- Exibe a mudança relevante de caráter e quebra de estrutura
- Exibe o preço mais alto do dia anterior e o preço mais baixo do dia anterior
- Exibe as imbalances entre as ordens de venda e compra (zonas a roxo)
- Exibe as zonas de maior liquidez através de linhas no gráfico
- Funciona tanto para Forex como para Criptomoedas
Break Levels – Peaks and Valleys – Market StructureDescription
An experimental script, designed as a visual aid, to highlight two consecutive green candles after a red candle, and two consecutive red candles after a green candle. We can assume these formations to be potential candidates as an origin of a peak and valley. The highest point of the 1st red candle and lowest point of the 1st green candle is to be considered as break levels.
How to use
Expect attacks/tests or a break of these levels in the future. A solid break through these levels may produce a potential retest in the opposite direction. The greater the number of times a zone is tested, the more likely it is to break.
By using them as reference points, traders are expected to follow their own set of rules and mark higher probability supply and demand zones in the area.
Alerts are added for either a candle close or wick through the levels. For the alerts the script only trails the latest high and low break levels.
This can be used as an alternative to those who use fractals for market structure.
Indicator in use
The Zone Seeker Supply and Demand - by Karoshi TradingThe Zone Seeker Supply and Demand - by Karoshi Trading
The Zone Seeker is based on the Supply & Demand Methodology.
Activating this indicator will mark all the zones of your chart.
Depending on your setting preferences, some zones will be showed or not.
The indicator code works as follow:
We will use the number of consecutive candles, body size compared to the wick and body length to calculate the zones.
Here is an example of the indicator.
1# Consecutive Candles
The indicator will search for minimum 2 consecutive candles of the same color. That means, that both candles has to close above the opening price of each candle (Bullish) or close below there opening prices (Bearish).
2# Body Size
After the first condition is met, the Code will now look into each candles of step #1.
Each of the candles should be equal or above 50% body, to meet the second requirement.
It will calculate the body size, compared to the full candle size to determine the percentage of the body itself.
3# Body Length
If the first two steps are positive, the code will jump into the 3rd phase of the indicator, the „Body Length“. With 2 options (ATR & MA) the code will calculate within a 14 candles period the average range of the candles. With that information, the code will now compare the average range to our candles from step #1.
The candles from step #1 has to be equal or bigger than 1.5 times the range/size of the average candle to met our last requirement.
4# Demand & Supply Zones
After all 3 requirements are met, the code will search for the last candle of the opposite color, to mark a zone. As example, if we have a demand zone with all conditions met, the indicator will search for the latest candle where the price closed below the opening price.
After finding such a candle, the indicator will mark the whole range of this candle (body + wick) and create a colored rectangle with a description in it. As example „Demand CTF“
CTF = Current Time Frame
5# Testing the Zones
As a test, we only count if the price went inside or touched the zone and left it and closed outside the zone. (You can choose by yourself if touched is on or off in the settings).
The code will not count each candle as a test, but each phase where the price went into the zone and closed outside the zone. As an example, if price went into a demand zone and closes 2 candles within the zone and the 3rd candle closes above the demand zone, that will count as one test.
Each test, will change the color of the zone, to keep in track of the freshness of the zones. After the 3rd test of a zone, the zone will be automatically deleted.
6# Flipping Zones
As a flipping zone is meant, that if the demand zone get broken to the downside by 2 or less candles it will automatically turn into a fresh supply zone. Important to know is, it will only occur if the candles closes below the demand zone. Same occurs for supply zones.
7# Multiple TimeFrames
It is possible, to choose one more time frame on top of the current time frame your are actually trading.
The code will separate both time frames, so you can choose how many zones you want to see in each time frame.
The supplementary time frame zones will be in 3 different grey colors, to destinguish the zones.
Also, overlapping zones will have a little info box, to avoid overlapping text.
On top of that, you can also show "all" time frames at once.
Current Time Frame = Colorized Zones
Supplementary Time Frames = Grey Zones
MATHR3E LINES█ OVERVIEW
MATHR3E LINES automatically draws Demand lines and Supply lines with their associated targets
█ CONCEPTS
Disclaimer:
MATHR3E LINES indicator is intended for advanced traders and may fit your profile, whether you are a day trader or a long-term investor.
It was originally developed by a renowned market analyst and documented in numerous books. Among them is the author Jason Perl.
It is recommended to have read the trading techniques mentioned in the books covering this indicator beforehand.
How to use:
The indicator draws Demand lines and Supply lines with their associated targets.
These lines connect pivot points which are:
- Lows surrounded on either side by higher lows
- Highs surrounded on either side by lower highs.
The key to drawing trend lines objectively is to select the right pivot points. Their significance is determined by the number of surrounding highs and lows.
By default, these are set to 1 since they are more sensitive to price action than higher level pivot points, and therefore provide an earlier breakout signal.
Another approach suggests that the most significant points to connect are those whose levels coincide with trend reversals.
Once you have chosen a demand line, there are 3 conditions that must be met for the trend line to be used.
As far as one or more of the conditions is met, a break of the intrabar trendline is expected, and a closing violation above the breakout level is likely.
Qualifiers
• Qualifier #1: Reverse Break
• Qualifier #2: Gap Break
• Qualifier #3: Pressure Break
In turn, a confirmed breakout entry may be invalidated the following bar, if any of the disqualifying conditions occur:

Professional Zones - Institutional Demand and Supply Imbalances
Intro to Supply and Demand Zone Technical Analysis
Supply and demand is an increasingly common strategy among day and swing traders in equity, forex, and the futures markets. The goal of analyzing supply and demand zones is to pre-determine where price action may pivot before that pivot happens, thus giving us an edge over the market. There are many unique charting/trading strategies that fit under the supply and demand umbrella, however we are going to focus primarily on Institutional Zones of Demand and Supply Imbalances, as this is what our TradingView indicator actively displays.
What are Institutional Zones of Demand and Supply Imbalances?
First, let’s break down the phrase above. The first word is ‘institutional’, which is a key aspect in our trading. As a retail trader, you must understand that retail traders (individual traders like you and I) have very little control and very little effect on price action in the major markets. The price action that we see everyday is caused by large institutions and hedge funds buying and selling equities in massive quantities.
This chart displays the price action for ES, which is the S&P500 E-mini futures .
At the time this guide was created, that chart for ES displays the low of this year (2022). You can see major highs and major lows, as well as steep drops and momentous runs.
Price action like this appears random to the naked eye, however it is all controlled by major institutions. These institutions place large buy and sell orders for markets such as the S&P 500 Index which causes these moves.
Our Institutional Demand and Supply Analysis attempts to discover the price zones where institutions have placed their buy/sell orders. Their buy orders create “demand zones”. And their sell orders create “supply zones”. Knowing where these zones exist allows us to anticipate price trend reversals so we can profitably participate in them alongside the major institutions when these key moves take place.
We are looking for areas in the chart where institutions have created major imbalances (more buy orders than sell orders or vice versa) which creates demand and supply zones that impact price action and trend reversals in predictable ways.
What Causes These Supply and Demand Zones?
Understanding that institutions control the price of the markets is crucial for understanding how these zones of supply and demand imbalances are formed, and it can be derived from historical price action.
There are two types of price action, balanced and imbalanced. Balanced price action is flat, consolidatory price action where the overall direction is sideways. Imbalanced price action is an exaggerated move in price either up or down. Now here is the key: institutional supply and demand imbalances are formed when price action goes from balanced to imbalanced. Below is an example of balanced price action .
There are clearly areas of institutional buy and sell orders that are causing price action to oscillate between the areas of demand and supply. The longer price action consolidates and moves sideways, the larger the volume profile will be in this range. In other words, more institutional orders will build up as price remains relatively the same for a longer period of time.
Here is how a demand zone is formed :
Due to bullish CPI news, price action went from balanced to imbalanced by exploding to the upside. This bullish price action filled all of the sell orders and broke past the previous area of supply. Because price moved up so fast, the buy orders did not get a chance to fill, essentially leaving an area with a high concentration of buy orders remaining. Hence, a new demand zone is formed which is shown here .
Our state-of-the-art indicator automatically scans for these historical shifts in price action (balanced to imbalanced) via our supply and demand zone detection formula, and displays them on your chart instantly. Remember the first image sent of blank price action? Here it is below:
The image below shows the exact same chart of ES, however, our advanced Professional Zones - Institutional Demand and Supply Imbalances indicator has been applied to the chart.
Just like that, price action has been transformed from unexplainable chaos to an orderly sequence of demand bounces and supply rejections.
Yes, all of these zones may be charted manually if one were to acquire the knowledge required to chart them by hand, and spend numerous hours going back in time to find all these zones. Additionally, these charts would then have to be constantly monitored and updated, which would require hours of work each day. This powerful indicator automates all of that work to give you more precious time to analyze and trade these zone-driven pivots in the markets.
How To Measure the Strength of Supply and Demand Zones?
The longer the consolidation takes place, the larger the demand/ supply zone will be. This strength is measured by the time frame of the origin of the zone.
Each zone may be formed on a different time frame, the biggest being the 1 Month time frame, and the smallest being the 30 Minute. Each supply and demand zone is automatically labeled based on the time frame from which the zone originated.
The weakest zones are derived from the 30 minute time frame. This means the zone only took two 30 minute candles to form, which is not a lot of time for institutions to place large orders. This means that the bounces and rejections off of these zones will usually be smaller, and usually won’t last more than a few days.
Larger zones such as 1 Day, 1 Week, and 1 Month often cause large swings in the market lasting weeks, months and even years. So pay attention not just to where the demand and supply zones currently appear, but also to the strength of that zone. You can see below that the demand zone that the market bottomed in and reversed out of in 2022 was in fact, a very strong weekly zone.
What is the Significance of Supply and Demand Zone Breaks?
These zones are order-based. This means that a supply zone level doesn’t turn into demand when price action breaks above it, and demand doesn’t turn into supply when price action breaks below it. It is unlike standard trend-based support and resistance levels. If price action breaks below demand by even $0. 01 , all of the buy orders have been filled and the demand must be deleted from the chart (and vice versa for a supply zone ).
While it is possible to play these zone breaks as continuation plays off of current momentous price action, it is unpredictable how far price will go up or down after breaking supply or demand during that leg.
However, in my years of supply and demand experience, I have noticed that if demand breaks, the market will eventually come down to the next viable demand zone . This is because without a pivot caused by an institutional-created demand or supply imbalance, there is often not enough participation to cause a sustainable trend reversal for a long period of time. Below is an example of this:
Above is the 4 Hour chart of TSLA bouncing up off of a demand zone . We call this a bounce in “no man's land”, as there is no major demand bounce to support this reversal to the upside. So in theory, price action should return lower to the next major historical zone of demand before it has a chance of pulling off a solid reversal. Here is what happened:
As you can see above, TSLA did indeed end up heading back down into the next major demand zone before getting a sustainable reversal to the upside. So you may play these supply and demand zone breaks as continuation trades, either long or short, with a price target at the next major zone. Just make sure to use proper risk management and position sizing, as timing the trigger of a price target can be difficult.
How Might I Place a Trade Using the Indicator?
Now that the basics of institutional supply and demand zones have been discussed, there will come a time that this strategy must be actively applied to personal trading with a goal of becoming profitable. Here is a step-by-step process to place a trade using supply and demand paired with an example of a day trade from the 1 minute time frame.
Step 1: Find a highly institutionally traded stock that is currently in supply or demand as shown by our indicator. For example, AAPL:
Step 2: Look for an above-average (exaggerated) volume spike. Because we are in one of the green zones at the bottom of the chart, we know that we are in demand where large institutional buy orders reside. We need to wait for some of these orders to actually fill before we take our trade. This is known as volume confirmation. The color of the volume usually does not matter in this situation.
Step 3: Now that we have a volume spike which is confirmation of large orders being filled, we need more confirmation that the institutional orders are not only a buy, but large enough to actually reverse the current trend.
This is ultimately a judgment call. A few green candles may be good enough to dictate a reversal, or a trend break. It comes down to personal preference and how aggressive you would like to be. Keep in mind, the longer you wait, the more confirmation your trade has, but also, the longer you wait, the greater the risk of missing the new trend. In this example, we will use a trend line to confirm our trend reversal.
Step 4: Enter the trade. Now that you have proper demand confirmation, you may place your trade. Be sure to determine your stop loss, price target, position size, and all other risk management factors along the way.
In this example, AAPL ran all the way up to supply before rejecting; making for a perfect demand to supply call trade. Also, more short trade entries could have been taken based off of the multiple supply rejections AAPL had.
The Bottom Line
There are many ways one may go about trading the stock market. However in my years of trading and teaching, there has never been a strategy that has not only changed my career, but improved the trading careers of my students, more dramatically than Institutional Zones of Demand and Supply Imbalances.
Though charting new zones and deleting broken ones everyday was time consuming and repetitive, the results of trading these zones made it well-worth the hours of charting. However, after months of development and fine-tuning, the painful charting process has been automated by this powerful indicator, completely replacing the tedious charting work for myself and my students.
While numerous other indicators include the name “Supply and Demand Zones”, we believe that no supply and demand indicator remotely this advanced and accurate available on TradingView. I am very blessed to finally bring this revolutionary tool to the market.
Introduction to the Aurora Demand and Supply Indicator for TradingView and its Functionality
This page is dedicated to providing a thorough walk-through of our Professional Zones - Institutional Demand and Supply Imbalances indicator. The settings functionality, customizability, and purpose will be discussed to give you an in-depth understanding of the indicator. Understanding the purpose of the different functions and settings is crucial to utilizing this powerful tool at its full potential.
First Look Upon Indicator Addition
After purchasing the indicator, your chart may initially appear cluttered, zoomed out, and hard to read. But do not worry, it just means the indicator settings must be fine-tuned to optimize your experience. Tt may appear overwhelming. However this page will discuss each major customizable setting and the functionality behind it to streamline your TradingView set up.
Filter Options Settings Category
This is the first customizable feature that appears when accessing the settings of the indicator. What Filter Zone Ranges does is allow you to filter the range at which zones appear both above and below the current asset price. With this setting unchecked, every single demand and supply zone within the 5k candle limit (or 20k limit if you have a premium TradingView account) will appear on your chart. This causes chart clutter which limits the visibility of price action.
If you have this setting activated, you can choose exactly the range of zones visible to you. This range is percent based and is measured both above and below the current market price. For example, if you activate Filter Zone Ranges and set the Filter Percentage at 7%, only zones within the range of 7% above, and 7% below the current asset price will be shown.
Demand/ Supply Zone Options Settings Category
The next two categories contain the majority of the customizability for supply and demand zones. The first option in both the Demand/ Supply Zone Options is Create Demand/Supply Zones. This toggle is very straight forward, you may choose whether or not to display all demand zones, or all supply zones.
The next two options are Demand/ Supply Zone Border and Demand/ Supply Zone Fill. Again, these are straight forward. The border setting allows you to edit both the color and opacity of the zones’ border lines. The fill setting allows you to edit the color and opacity of the interior of the supply/demand boxes.
Following the first pair of visual settings, you will see Demand/ Supply Zone Box Offset. This allows you to toggle how much the indicator offsets each zone from its origin point. In other words, move it to the left or right from the point in time at which the zone was created. The 0 offset is the base setting which is actually a slight offset to the right of the origin point to ensure that the candlesticks remain unobstructed visually.
After the offset options, you will find Demand/ Supply Zone ERC Multiple. This is a key setting which inputs the value our formula utilizes to scan the areas of institutional supply and demand imbalances. Unless you are extremely experienced with supply and demand analysis or you are running backtesting, it is highly recommended this value is left at ‘2’ for both the demand and supply options.
The next two options you will see in your indicator settings are Extend Demand/ Supply Zone and Demand/ Supply Zone Size. This feature allows you to customize exactly how far your zones will extend from the point of origin into the future.
The three options on the drop down menu are Extend, Fixed, and Dynamic. Each of these options extend your zones in a different fashion. It is important to note that the value inputted in the size option is the amount of units the zones will extend to the right for both Fixed and Dynamic options. The larger this input is, the further out the zones will extend into the future, and vice versa.
The final setting in the Demand/ Supply Zone Options category is Broken Zones to Keep and Broken Demand/ Supply Zone Fill. The Broken Zones to Keep input allows you to see recent supply or demand zones that have been broken and deleted from your chart. This may be useful for a trader in a few different ways. The Broken Demand/ Supply Zone Fill setting allows you to customize the number of broken zones displayed as well as their color and opacity. The most prominent example of this option’s utility is for traders that do not observe price action during the entirety of the market open.
If an individual left their charts for a few hours and missed a demand break, it may give the illusion that there was never a demand there and price action has been in “no-man's land” all day. However if that individual inputted ‘1’ in the Broken Zones to Keep setting, they would be able to see that a demand has broken. This may be useful as the trader may have an altered sentiment after knowing that a zone did in fact break.
Note: the value inputted is the amount of previously broken zones that will appear on your chart. For example, if the value ‘3’ is inputted, the three most recently broken zones will appear on your chart.
Time Frame Options Settings Category
Time Frame Options Settings allows you to toggle which supply and demand zones appear on your chart by time frame. For example, if you are analyzing a chart on a larger time frame such as the daily or weekly, the small 30 minute and 45 minute zones will often clutter your chart. By deselecting the weaker and smaller time frame zones, it will clean your chart up, allowing you to only see the zones that assist your analysis.
However the first two options in the category are unique.The first is Show Forming Zones. This option is extremely useful if you are watching price action play out live, when seeing the possibility of a supply or demand zone forming may be of benefit during your day trading. By toggling this setting ON, you will see all possible supply and demand zones forming in real time. However, this could cause clutter if multiple zones are forming at once in which case, toggling it off may be more beneficial.
The second option in the Timeframe Options category is the Show Zones Inside toggle, which controls the table at the top right of your screen (you may get rid of this table by deselecting tables in display settings).
This setting simply is a “yes” or “no” as to whether or not the table located at the top right of your screen will display the number of zones price action is currently sitting in. This setting is useful as zones may sometimes pile up on top of one another, making it hard to know exactly how many zones price action is currently sitting in.
Gap Options Settings Category
Just below the Timeframe Options category, is the Gap Options category. Gaps appear when two daily candles highs and lows do not overlap. These are often created when a catalyst is released into the market overnight causing a large move, resulting in a “gap” up or down the next morning.
A Gap often forms due to a strong move to the upside, and the indicator highlights this gap with a gray box. Gaps are important to many traders as there is often a large lack of liquidity inside the gap area, which often acts as a magnet that attracts future price action to fill it. If toggled on, the indicator displays the gap among the supply and demand zones seamlessly. The rest of the settings for this category are options to customize the color, opacity, size, and offset. These have the same effect as the options in the Demand/ Supply Zone Options category.
Text Options Settings Category
The final category in the indicator input settings is Text Options. This category allows you to toggle zone labeling on or off, and to specify how you would like the zone labels to appear. It’s strongly recommended that zone labeling is left ON because knowing the time frame a supply or demand zone originated from is a massive indicator of its strength. Top right alignment causes labeling such as “3H” to appear at the top right of each zone.
Indicator Data Limitations
There are a few limitations of TradingView which impact the Professional Zones - Institutional Supply and Demand Imbalances indicator. The first is the data TradingView provides to its users. With a basic TradingView account, a user only has access to 5,000 candles of data. So if a user is on the 1 minute time frame, that user can only see 5,000 candles before that current point. This is important because our advanced indicator scans historical price action that has formed supply and demand zones and displays it on your chart. This means that if a user is on a 1 minute time frame chart, they will only be able to see zones formed within the last 5,000 candles. Older supply and demand zones can not be displayed. However if a user has the Premium TradingView subscription, they can access up to 20,000 candles, which greatly increases the potential zones the user may see on the smaller time frames.
To counter this, we strongly recommend checking the larger time frames before starting your trading day, as there could be an old zone lurking behind the scenes. Once you spot it on the 30 minute time frame, for example, you may easily take note of the demand zone and its location.
The Bottom Line
This indicator has been intricately and powerfully designed to not only display institutional supply and demand imbalances more accurately and efficiently than any other TradingView indicator, but it has also been designed to give the user full control. Full control means the user has the ability to customize the appearance and inputs, as well as toggle specific objects visible to the trader.
We have meticulously designed the Professional Zones - Institutional Supply and Demand Imbalances indicator to be extremely valuable as a stand-alone strategy, as well as versatile enough to incorporate multiple other trading strategies on top of supply and demand .
However, in order for this indicator to be utilized by you at its full potential, it is important that you understand all of its features, capabilities and configuration options before you dive into trading.
Equity Bond Currency DashboardDepicts demand-flow between Equities, Bonds and Currencies of 6 countries. Useful in tracking the flow of smart money and checking the dynamics of inter-connected markets.
Principle:
DXY lies at the heart of the diagram with usd-currency pairs of 5 countries connected to it. When demand for a currency increases it strengthens against Dollar. This is depicted by a line from DXY to the currency indicating demand flow from Dollar to the currency (DXY is only an indicative symbol for Dollar, the currency may not be part of the dollar index). Similarly when Dollar strengthens against the currency, demand flow is depicted by a line from the currency to DXY. Currency blocks are connected to Equity and Bond Yields of the respective countries. Equities and Bonds, when bought, takes the demand from the respective currencies and vice versa.
Overall, the demand flows in the direction of arrows. The flow is incomplete without commodities, import/export, interest/inflation rates of countries, however, the diagram most of the times explains why an asset class is performing the way it is.
Left side bar of each block is very similar to OHLC candles except for the following -
Instead of wicks, top and bottom of the bar represents high and low for the selected time-frame
Open and close are normalised for high and low
Bar border is red if close < prev.close, green if close >= prev.close
Other notes:
The diagram requires at least 200 bars in the chart to render. Please select the symbol and time-frame that contain at least 200 bars.
The diagram requires a live market to render the flow. To check flows on historical bars, set the option from settings.
Desired indices could be selected for countries of choice. Default settings point to futures wherever possible to have the markets live simultaneously across the countries.
Gap ZonesSharing a simple gap zone identifier, simply detects gap up/down areas and plots them for visual reference. Calculation uses new candle open compared to previous candle close and draws the zone, a mid point is plotted also as far too often it's significance is proven effective.
Works on any timeframe and market though I recommend utilizing timeframes such as weekly or daily for viewing at lower timeframes such as 5, 15 or 30 minutes.
Often price is observed reaching towards zone high/mid/low before rejection/bouncing. These gap zones can give quantitative basis for trade management.
Future features may include alerts based on price crossing up/down gap low, mid and highs. Feel free to message with any other suggestions.
Mark LevelsMark Levels is marking liquidity pools by drawing lines on their pivots and labelling them so that you can instantly detect them on your realtime chart
It supports:
- marking previous and current day lows and highs
- marking previous and current week lows and highs
- marking previous and current month lows and highs
- marking equal lows and highs
technically it re-builds them on the last bar or as soon as new realtime bar is updated. it looks with 1k bars back to find higher timeframe ranges and find lows and highs there
Adjustments:
- changing the line style of the group
- changing the lines color and the labels on the groups
- currently pools are split on 2 groups Period Liquidity and Equal Pivots Liquidity.
