Open Interest Weighted Average Price [Arjo]Open Interest Weighted Average Price , or OIWAP , is a simple visual indicator that shows the average price of an asset based on changes in open interest .
Instead of using trading volume like VWAP, this indicator gives more weight to prices where new futures contracts are being added or removed . This helps highlight the price levels where traders are actively building or closing positions.
The indicator shows:
A main line that represents the average price weighted by open interest changes.
Upper and lower bands (standard deviation bands) that show how far the price moves away from this average.
OIWAP is mainly useful for NSE futures markets , where open interest data is available. It helps traders visually understand where most market participation and positioning are taking place relative to price .
Concepts:
Applies statistical concepts, including weighted averaging and standard deviation, to open interest data
Uses the absolute change in open interest as a weighting factor for each price point
Creates a dynamic average that reflects where significant open interest activity has occurred during a given period
Standard deviation bands are computed from this weighted average to show the statistical spread of prices around the OIWAP line
Resets calculations based on user-selected time periods (daily, weekly, monthly, or session-based)
Allows for fresh analysis at regular intervals
Similar concept to volume-weighted average price (VWAP) indicators, but uses open interest changes as the weighting component
Features:
Weighted Average: Calculates a central line based on contract activity.
Flexible Anchors: Allows users to choose the reset period for the calculation.
Volatility Bands: Displays outer and mid-bands to visualize price stretches.
Data Check: Built-in alerts notify you if Open Interest data is missing for a symbol.
Visual Zones: Color-coded areas help identify price location at a glance.
How To Use
When you add the indicator to your chart, you will see:
A main OIWAP line — the open-interest-weighted price level
Mid-bands around the line (±0.5 standard deviations)
Outer bands farther away (±2.0 standard deviations)
Shaded background zones between these lines
You can:
Change the reset period to see how the average behaves over different time ranges
Adjust the timeframe for open-interest data
Turn mid-bands on or off
Adjust colors and styles to improve readability
Conclusion
The OIWAP indicator serves as an educational tool for visualizing the relationship between price movements and open interest activity in futures markets
Presents a weighted average price line along with statistical deviation bands
Offers a structured framework for chart analysis
Customizable settings allow users to adapt the display to their analytical preferences
Maintains focus on visual interpretation rather than directional predictions
Functions as a supplementary charting overlay that may complement other forms of technical and fundamental analysis

Debye-Einstein Trend Oscillator [Dual Mode] | IkkeOmarDebye-Einstein Trend Oscillator
Indicator Settings Guide
Visual Settings View Mode: Switches the chart display. Select "Standard Flow" to see the raw physics energy bars and crossover lines. Select "Trend Diff (MACD)" to see the histogram that highlights momentum shifts and chaos spikes.
Physics Engine Trend Lookback: Defines the "Mass" of the trend. This sets the long-term baseline (default 1500 bars). Higher values filter out noise and focus only on macro-cycles; lower values make the system faster but noisier. Chaos Threshold (%): Controls the trigger for the Einstein (Chaos) state. Set to 95, only the top 5% of highest-energy volume events will trigger the vertical white spikes. Lowering this value makes the system more sensitive to volatility.
Flow Moving Averages MA Type: Choose between SMA (Simple) or EMA (Exponential) for the smoothing calculation. Fast / Slow Length: These settings determine the sensitivity of the momentum logic. The difference between these two lengths creates the histogram in "Trend Diff" mode.
1. Concept & Theoretical Basis
This script applies principles from Solid State Physics—specifically the Debye and Einstein models of specific heat capacity—to financial market trend analysis.
The core hypothesis is that market trends behave like physical lattices:
Low Energy State (Debye Model): The market moves in a coordinated, wave-like manner (phonons). Trends are sustainable and correlated.
High Energy State (Einstein Model): The market becomes chaotic. Individual participants (atoms) vibrate independently and violently. This represents capitulation or euphoria.
We model "Price" as the position of particles and "Volume × Range" as the thermal energy (Temperature) entering the system.
2. Implementation Models
We constructed the oscillator using three primary physical components:
A. The Trend Vector (Mass)
We assume the "Mass" of the market is its inertia relative to a long-term baseline.
Model: Distance from a 1500-period SMA, normalized by ATR.
Assumption: Price deviation from a deep baseline indicates the magnitude of the trend "force."
B. Thermodynamics (Temperature)
We define "Work" as Volume * True Range.
Temperature (T): The Percentile Rank of this Work over the lookback period (1500 bars).
Assumption: High volume combined with high range equals high thermal energy.
C. The Dual Regimes (Amplifiers)
This is the engine of the script. We apply a scalar multiplier to the Trend Vector based on the current Temperature (T).
Debye Regime (Sustainable): When T is below the critical threshold (95%), we use a polynomial function (T^2). This mimics the Debye T^3 law where energy scales smoothly.
Effect: Smoothly amplifies standard trends.
Einstein Regime (Chaos): When T breaches the critical threshold (95%), we switch to an exponential function derived from the Einstein Solid model.
Effect: Creates massive vertical spikes during trend exhaustions or breakouts.
3. Code Explanation
The Physics Scalars
debye_amp(t) => 1.0 + (math.pow(t, 2) * 5.0)
Defines the sustainable state multiplier. Squaring the temperature t creates a non-linear but smooth response curve that gradually increases with volatility.
einstein_amp(t) => 1.0 + ((1.0 / (math.exp(1.0 / t_safe) - 1.0)) * 15.0)
Deep Dive: This function applies the Bose-Einstein distribution formula (1 / (e^(1/T) - 1)).
The Physics: In quantum mechanics, this formula calculates the occupancy of energy states. At low temperatures, the value is effectively zero (the "frozen" state).
The Function: As our market "Temperature" (T) rises, the denominator shrinks, causing the output to grow exponentially.
The Result: This mathematically forces the system to ignore low-volatility noise but react explosively once the "Boiling Point" is reached, creating the vertical spikes seen on the chart.
is_einstein = (T * 100) >= thresh_einstein
A boolean check that determines if the current market energy (Temperature) has exceeded the user-defined chaos threshold (default 95%).
physics_scalar = is_einstein ? einstein_amp(T) : debye_amp(T)
The regime switch. If the threshold is breached, the system applies the exponential Einstein scalar; otherwise, it applies the polynomial Debye scalar.
Trend Differentiation Logic
final_flow = trend_vector * physics_scalar
Calculates the primary oscillator value by multiplying the directional Trend Vector (Mass) by the active Physics Scalar (Energy).
diff_val = ma_fast - ma_slow
Calculates the momentum of the flow itself by subtracting the Slow Moving Average from the Fast Moving Average. This creates the MACD-style histogram.
4. Visual Reporting & Chart Analysis
Referring to the generated charts (Trend Diff Mode):
The Histogram: Represents the diff_val (Fast MA - Slow MA).
Cyan/Pink: Standard trend momentum (Debye mode).
White Spikes: These represent the Einstein Threshold (Chaos). These spikes generally appear at local bottoms or explosive breakout points, confirming that "Temperature" has exceeded the 95th percentile.
Zero Line: Crossing the zero line implies the trend momentum has shifted (Fast MA crossed Slow MA).
5. Assumptions & Limitations
A. The "Always in Trend" Bias
The "Trend Diff" mode calculates the delta between two moving averages of the flow.
Risk: MAs are laggy by definition. By using a 200/500 MA combo on the oscillator, we are smoothing the data significantly.
Consequence: In a ranging market, the MAs will converge near zero. However, if a sudden burst of Volume enters (Temperature rises) without price moving much, the Einstein scalar will trigger. This may amplify a small move into a large signal, implying a trend where there is only volatility.
B. Lag
The lookback period is 1500 bars. This is a "Macro" trend system. It will not react quickly to short-term reversals unless the Volume/Range shock is massive enough to trigger the Einstein scalar immediately.
Example "physics values"
In the Standard Flow view, the vertical columns represent the raw energy of the trend—Teal and Red bars indicate normal, sustainable market movement (Debye state), while bright Lime and Fuchsia bars signal chaotic, high-volatility events (Einstein state). The height of these bars shows the combined strength of price direction and volume. Overlaying these columns are two moving averages, a fast Blue line and a slow Red line, which smooth out this data to show the underlying momentum. When the Blue line crosses the Red line, it signals a shift in the trend's direction, while the color of the bars warns you if that move is stable or nearing exhaustion.
ADR Dashboard with Move, Left and AlertsIndicator Name: ADR Dashboard with Move, Left and Alerts
Overview
The ADR Dashboard is a powerful real-time trading tool that tracks how much a stock, crypto, or other asset has moved today relative to its Average Daily Range (ADR). It provides a clear visual representation of:
1. Today’s price movement (Move)
2. Remaining potential movement left to reach ADR (Left)
3. Percentage of ADR covered (% Covered)
4.Additionally, it provides automated alerts for key movement thresholds.
A) What it Does
1.Calculates the Average Daily Range (ADR):
2. Uses True Range over a user-defined lookback period (default 14 days).
3. ADR measures typical daily volatility.
B) Tracks Today’s Move:
1. Move = Current Price – Today’s Open (Realtime)
2. Positive → bullish move, Negative → bearish move
C) Tracks Remaining Potential (Left):
1. Left = ADR – |Move| (Realtime)
2. Shows how much of the ADR is still available for today’s move
3. Percentage Covered:
4. % Covered = |Move| / ADR × 100
D) Color-coded for visual clarity:
1. Green (<50%) → small move, plenty of range left
2. Yellow (50–80%) → moderate move, watch for acceleration
3. Orange (80–100%) → strong move, ADR almost reached
4. Red (>100%) → ADR exceeded, momentum may be exhausted
E) Dashboard Table:
1. Columns: ADR | Move | Left | % Covered
2. Position: middle-right of the chart
F) Left column color-coded:
1. Green → some ADR left
2. Red → ADR fully reached or exceeded
3. Move column: usually yellow for visibility, but could be enhanced for positive/negative moves
G) Alerts
The indicator provides directional alerts:
Bullish Alerts (upward moves):
1. 90% ADR warning: fires when Move ≥ 90% of ADR → early warning of strong bullish momentum
2. 100% ADR breach: fires when Move ≥ ADR → full daily range reached
Bearish Alerts (downward moves):
1. 90% ADR warning: fires when Move ≤ -90% of ADR → early warning of strong bearish momentum
2. 100% ADR breach: fires when Move ≤ -ADR → full daily range reached
All alerts are unique and fire once per session per threshold.
H) How Traders Can Use This Indicator
Momentum Trading:
1. Identify strong intraday moves approaching ADR.
2. Enter positions early at 90% ADR warning or take profits near 100% ADR.
Scalping & Intraday Trading:
1. Gauge how much of today’s range is left for quick entries/exits.
2. Avoid trades when ADR is almost fully consumed → reduces risk of reversals.
Swing Trading:
1. Combine with trend indicators to see if today’s move is significant relative to historical volatility.
I) Risk Management:

Intraday ORB-Anchored VWAP Structure [Arjo]Intraday ORB-Anchored VWAP Structure
This indicator is built for intraday traders. This tool helps them to see how the market is behaving today. It uses Opening Range, VWAP, and commonly used reference levels to show the market's general direction.
It will not tell you exactly when to buy or sell. Instead, it provides a clear picture of the market so you can make better decisions on your own.
What This Indicator Does
1. Defines the Trading Session
The indicator works only during the selected intraday session (for example, the Indian market). All levels reset automatically at the start of each new trading day.
2. Calculates the Opening Range (ORB)
The Opening Range is the high and low formed during the first few minutes of the session (e.g., first 15 minutes). This range helps identify early market direction.
3. Determines Early Directional Bias
After the Opening Range ends, a smooth trend filter (using a smooth function) evaluates whether price behavior is more bullish or bearish.
This step is used only to decide where VWAP should be anchored , not to generate signals.
4. Anchors VWAP from the Opening Range
If early price behavior is bullish, VWAP is anchored from the Opening Range High
If early price behavior is bearish, VWAP is anchored from the Opening Range Low
5. Plots Important Reference Levels
Previous Day High (PDH) and Low (PDL)
Central Pivot Range (TC, PP, BC)
Opening Range High and Low
Optional Opening Range box
Anchored VWAP for the current session only
How You Can Use This Indicator
Use Opening Range High and Low to understand where the market found early support and resistance.
Observe how price behaves relative to the anchored VWAP :
Staying above VWAP suggests intraday strength
Staying below VWAP suggests intraday weakness
Use PDH, PDL, and CPR levels as reference zones where price may react.
Combine these levels with your own entry rules, confirmation tools, and risk management.
Notes
This indicator is a visual reference and structure tool only.
It does not predict price, provide trade calls, or guarantee outcomes .
All calculations are non-repainting once the Opening Range is complete.
Designed for educational, discretionary, and semi-systematic intraday analysis.
Disclaimer:
This script is intended for market analysis and educational purposes only . Trading involves risk, and users are responsible for their own trading decisions.

Williams Volatility Channel (Full Range Breakout)Overview
This indicator implements a volatility breakout system inspired by legendary trader Larry Williams. It plots daily breakout levels calculated as the previous day’s close ± the full previous day’s range (high – low). These levels act as extreme volatility expansion thresholds:
- Upper Level: Previous close + previous day’s range
- Lower Level: Previous close – previous day’s range
A price move beyond these levels signals a strong directional breakout driven by expanded volatility — a classic Larry Williams concept for identifying potential trend continuation or acceleration days.
This version uses the full prior range (multiplier = 1.0), making it more aggressive than Williams’ original examples (which often used smaller fractions like 0.25–0.5 × range). It is particularly useful on instruments with clear daily sessions and visible overnight gaps or volatility spikes.
Key Features
Daily breakout levels plotted as horizontal lines that update at the start of each new trading day.
Optional semi-transparent fill between upper and lower levels for better visual channel perception.
Subtle background shading on the first bar of each new day and new week for easier time orientation.
Configurable colors and visibility toggles.
Generic session duration input (informational only) to help estimate candles per day on non-standard markets (e.g., European indices ≈ 8.5h, US stocks ≈ 6.5h, crypto ≈ 24h).
How to Use the Indicator
Breakout Signals
Bullish Breakout: Price closes or sustains above the Upper Level → potential strong upward momentum. Consider long entries or adding to existing longs.
Bearish Breakout: Price closes or sustains below the Lower Level → potential strong downward momentum. Consider short entries or adding to existing shorts.
These breakouts often occur on news events, earnings, or when the market “wakes up” after low-volatility periods.
Trend Confirmation
Use the direction of the breakout to confirm the prevailing trend: In an uptrend, focus primarily on upside breakouts.
In a downtrend, focus primarily on downside breakouts.
Breakouts against the trend can signal potential reversals (use with caution and additional confirmation).
Support & Resistance
Once price has broken a level, that level often flips role: A broken Upper Level can act as support on pullbacks.
A broken Lower Level can act as resistance on bounces.
Risk Management
Place stops beyond the opposite level or use ATR-based stops.
Consider partial profit-taking at 1× or 2× the prior day’s range from entry.
Best Markets & Timeframes
Works well on: Stock indices (DAX, FTSE MIB, CAC, S&P 500 futures, etc.)
Individual stocks
Commodities and futures with defined daily sessions
Cryptocurrencies (adjust session hours to 24 for continuous markets)
Recommended intraday timeframes: 5–60 minutes. On higher timeframes (4H, daily), the levels still appear but are less frequently tested intraday.
Important Notes
This is a trend-following / momentum tool, not a mean-reversion or gap-fading strategy (unlike Larry Williams’ famous “OOPS” pattern).
False breakouts can occur in low-volatility or ranging markets — always use additional confluence (volume, trend filters, higher-timeframe context).
The session duration input is informational and allows definition of how many candles per day should be used in the calculation.
This indicator provides a clean, visually intuitive way to spot high-volatility breakout opportunities based on one of Larry Williams’ timeless volatility concepts. Add it to your charts and combine it with your existing trading system for enhanced entry timing on strong momentum days.
Smart WaveTrend Crossover█ OVERVIEW
Smart WaveTrend Crossover is an indicator based on WaveTrend crossovers, designed to reduce the number of false signals typically produced by classic oscillator crossovers.
Instead of triggering a signal immediately at the line crossover, the indicator requires additional confirmation in the form of a price breakout from a box, created at the moment of the WaveTrend signal.
The script also includes:
- a trend filter based on a separate WaveTrend
- “fog” visualization
- candle coloring based on trend direction
- fully configurable entry signals
- automatic Take Profit / Stop Loss levels
- a real-time TP/SL table
█ CONCEPTS
Classic WaveTrend crossovers often generate noise, especially during consolidation.
Smart WaveTrend Crossover attempts to address this issue using a breakout confirmation mechanism:
- at the moment WT1 crosses WT2, a horizontal price box is created
- a trade signal is generated only when price closes outside the box
- an optional trend filter limits signals to the dominant market direction
The trend filter is built on a WaveTrend crossover using larger, slower parameters, independent from the signal-generating WaveTrend.
This allows short-term momentum to be separated from the broader market direction, and all trend filter parameters can be freely adjusted.
WaveTrend signal settings are not identical to the original / classic values.
They are configured to generate a higher number of signals, which works better in combination with breakout boxes and confirmation logic.
Signal sensitivity can be easily adjusted by modifying channel length and averaging parameters.
By default, show_only_matching is enabled:
- bullish crossover → bullish breakout only (BUY)
- bearish crossover → bearish breakout only (SELL)
█ FEATURES
WaveTrend (Signals & Trend):
- two independent WaveTrend setups:
- one for signal generation
- one for trend determination
- signal parameters configured more aggressively than classic defaults
- trend filter based on a slower WaveTrend crossover
- trend direction visualized using directional fog, not a histogram
WaveTrend Input Explanation:
- Channel Length – controls WaveTrend reaction speed (shorter = more signals)
- Average Length – smoothing of the main WT1 line
- MA Length – smoothing of the signal line WT2
- Source – price source used in calculations (default: hlc3)
Fog (Visualization):
- visual representation of market pressure in the direction of the trend
- fog height based on average candle size × offset_mult
- adjustable transparency or fully disableable
Breakout Boxes:
- a box is created on every WaveTrend direction change
- default height based on the signal candle range
- optional box expansion using average candle size × box_multiplier
Signals:
- triangles or “BUY / SELL” labels
- direction matching filter (show_only_matching)
- option to display all breakouts regardless of crossover direction
- built-in BUY and SELL alerts
Visual Settings:
- candle coloring based on WaveTrend trend direction
- full control over bullish and bearish colors
Risk Management – TP / SL:
- automatic TP1, TP2, TP3 and SL levels
- two calculation modes:
- Candle Multiplier – based on average candle range
- Percentage – percentage from entry price
- separate parameters for each level
- TP/SL lines drawn on the chart
- real-time TP/SL price table
█ HOW TO USE
Add the indicator to your TradingView chart → Indicators → search “Smart WaveTrend Crossover”
Key settings:
- WaveTrend Settings for Signals – signal sensitivity
- WaveTrend Settings for Trend – market direction filter
- Signal Settings – signal type and box logic
- Fog – pressure visualization
- Risk Management – TP/SL configuration
Signal meaning:
- BUY → upward breakout from a box after a bullish crossover
- SELL → downward breakout from a box after a bearish crossover
- visible boxes → breakout watch zones
- fog and candle color → current market direction
█ APPLICATIONS
Standalone entry system
- entering directly on BUY / SELL signals
- or entering on trend color change
Filter for price-action strategies
- using WaveTrend signals as directional confirmation
- e.g. level breakout + WaveTrend confirmation = entry
Trend indicator
- trading other tools only in the direction of the WaveTrend trend
- e.g. RSI breaks above 50 while WaveTrend trend is bullish
█ NOTES
- Default settings are a starting point and may require adjustment
- The indicator works best as part of a broader trading system
Volatility Shield ProConcept: Volatility Shield Pro is a multi-dimensional execution engine designed to filter high-probability entries by triangulating Trend, Institutional Volume, and Statistical Exhaustion.
Why this is original: Unlike standard indicators that look at price in a vacuum, this uses a Volume-Weighted ATR (VWATR) to distinguish between retail noise and institutional "Strikes." It integrates an ADR (Average Daily Range) Fuel gauge to prevent entries into exhausted moves, solving the common problem of buying the "top" of a trend.
Components & Logic:
Institutional Strike Engine: Uses VWATR normalized against a 50-period SMA to find momentum backed by volume.
ADR Fuel Gauge: Calculated by comparing current price travel to the 10-day ADR. A "State" of EXHAUSTED is triggered at 120% to warn of mean reversion.
HTF Anchor: A built-in Higher Time Frame EMA filter (default 4H) to ensure local trades align with the macro tide.
Live EDGE Tracker: A real-time backtesting module that calculates the win rate of the "Strike" signals on the current chart history using a 1.5:1 Reward-to-Risk ratio.
This combined tool addresses the three main reasons most trading systems fail by integrating higher-timeframe bias, daily range exhaustion, and volume confirmation into one framework:
Fighting the Tide (HTF Ribbon): Keeps traders aligned with the dominant higher-timeframe trend to avoid counter-trend entries.
Running Out of Gas (ADR Fuel): Measures a symbol’s average daily range to prevent chasing moves that have already reached their statistical limit.
Ghost Volume (RVOL/VWATR): Filters out low-quality, retail-driven activity by requiring institutional-level volume spikes before taking trades.
In essence, it combines trend alignment, range exhaustion detection, and real-volume filtering to eliminate the most common account-killing mistakes.
The "Triple-Threat" Trade Setup
This is the highest-probability setup the tool can produce. When these three things align, the "Edge" is at its peak:
The Anchor: HTF Ribbon is Bright Green.
The Local: Atlas Trend Bias is BULLISH and State is STRIKE.
The Value: ADR Fuel is Low (40-60%), meaning the stock has massive room to move before hitting daily resistance.

A customizable confluence score (0-6) ensures signals meet user-defined criteria, reducing whipsaws in volatile markets.
• Dynamic Prediction Thresholds:
ADX-driven adjustments lower the required prediction percentage (e.g., 60% in strong trends) for "PERFECT TIME" entries, adapting to market conditions like ranging or trending phases.
• Visual Analysis Table:
A sleek, color-coded dashboard displays progress bars for each indicator, prediction percentages, and status (e.g., "PERFECT TIME" or "WAIT"). Supports long and short analyses with intuitive ASCII bars for quick scans.
• Projection Candles:
Simulates potential next-candle outcomes with volatility-scaled (via Bollinger Bands width) green long and red short candles, aiding in visualizing price targets.
• Buy/Sell Signals and Alerts:
Generates labeled "BUY" and "SELL" arrows on EMA crossovers within confirmed trends, with separate alerts for basic signals and high-confluence "PERFECT TIME" opportunities.
• Customizable Inputs:
Adjust ATR periods, Supertrend factors, minimum confluence scores, and volume ratios to tailor the indicator for stocks, forex, or crypto perpetual futures.
How It Works:
This TradingView script calculates long and short scores using weighted contributions from key indicators, normalizing them into prediction percentages. A confluence check—factoring trend, EMA alignment, MACD, Stochastic, volume, and ADX—triggers "PERFECT TIME" only when conditions align robustly. For example:
• In a downtrend (Supertrend red), with bearish MACD and Stochastic, and sufficient volume, the indicator highlights short opportunities.
• Dynamic thresholds ensure aggressive entries in strong trends (ADX >25) and conservative ones in weak trends.
• Backtested for reliability, it excels in identifying reversals and continuations, making it a must-have for traders seeking an edge in futures trading strategies.

Leveraging a multi-indicator confluence strategy, this tool provides traders with actionable long and short prediction percentages, enhanced by dynamic ADX-based thresholds and visual projection candles. Ideal for scalping, day trading, or swing trading on platforms like MEXC or Binance futures, it combines Supertrend, MACD, RSI, Stochastic, ADX, and volume analysis to deliver high-probability buy and sell signals while minimizing false positives.
Key Features:
* Multi-Indicator Confluence Scoring: Integrates Supertrend for trend direction, EMAs (8, 21, 50) for alignment, MACD for momentum crossovers, RSI for overbought/oversold conditions, Stochastic for divergence detection, ADX for trend strength, and volume ratios for confirmation. A customizable confluence score (0-6) ensures signals meet user-defined criteria, reducing whipsaws in volatile markets.
* Dynamic Prediction Thresholds: ADX-driven adjustments lower the required prediction percentage (e.g., 60% in strong trends) for "PERFECT TIME" entries, adapting to market conditions like ranging or trending phases.
* Visual Analysis Table: A sleek, color-coded dashboard displays progress bars for each indicator, prediction percentages, and status (e.g., "PERFECT TIME" or "WAIT"). Supports long and short analyses with intuitive ASCII bars for quick scans.
* Projection Candles: Simulates potential next-candle outcomes with volatility-scaled (via Bollinger Bands width) green long and red short candles, aiding in visualizing price targets.
Buy/Sell Signals and Alerts: Generates labeled "BUY" and "SELL" arrows on EMA crossovers within confirmed trends, with separate alerts for basic signals and high-confluence "PERFECT TIME" opportunities.
* Customizable Inputs: Adjust ATR periods, Supertrend factors, minimum confluence scores, and volume ratios to tailor the indicator for stocks, forex, or crypto perpetual futures.
How It Works:
This TradingView script calculates long and short scores using weighted contributions from key indicators, normalizing them into prediction percentages. A confluence check—factoring trend, EMA alignment, MACD, Stochastic, volume, and ADX—triggers "PERFECT TIME" only when conditions align robustly. For example:
In a downtrend (Supertrend red), with bearish MACD and Stochastic, and sufficient volume, the indicator highlights short opportunities.
Dynamic thresholds ensure aggressive entries in strong trends (ADX >25) and conservative ones in weak trends.
Backtested for reliability, it excels in identifying reversals and continuations, making it a must-have for traders seeking an edge in futures trading strategies.
Usage Instructions:
1. Add the indicator to your TradingView chart.
2. Customize settings via the inputs panel (e.g., set minConfluence to 5 for stricter signals).
3. Monitor the analysis table for predictions and confluence scores.
4. Act on "BUY/SELL" labels or "PERFECT TIME" alerts, combining with your risk management.
5. Enable projection candles for visual forecasting of the next bar.
Compatible with all timeframes, from 1-minute scalping to daily swings. Note: This is not financial advice; always verify signals with additional analysis.

Quant-Action Pro: Triple Confluence EngineQuant-Action Pro: Triple Confluence Engine
Systematic Framework for Structural Price Action Analysis
Quant-Action Pro is a high-performance analytical engine designed to synchronize institutional liquidity flow with market geometry. Instead of traditional "signals," this framework identifies Structural States where three independent algorithmic layers align, providing a objective roadmap for the current price action context.
1. Core Algorithmic Matrix
The engine operates by monitoring the interaction between price and three proprietary logic layers:
A. Institutional Flow Node (SP2L) —
Logic: Monitors "Passive Liquidity Absorption" at the 20-period EMA.
Function: Identifies zones where institutional buyers/sellers are defending the trend's equilibrium. This is not a simple touch; it requires a validated "Touch-and-Hold" sequence.
B. Structural Flip Scanner (BTB) —
Logic: Detects the transition from old supply to new demand (S/R Flip).
Function: Uses a 3-phase Break-Test-Break verification to confirm that a structural breakout is backed by volume, reducing the risk of "Fake-outs."
C. Liquidity Compression Monitor (Micro Map) —
Logic: Statistical range-contraction analysis (Volatility Squeeze).
Function: Signals a High-Density State where price is coiling for an expansion move.
2. The Golden State: Triple Confluence Logic
The GOLD label represents the "Apex" of this engine. It is triggered only when the SP2L, BTB, and Micro Map layers synchronize on a single candle. In structural terms, this means:
Trend Defense (SP2L) is active.
Structural Breakout (BTB) is confirmed.
Volatility Expansion (MM) is imminent.
This Triple-Layer filtering ensures that Golden Signals only appear during periods of maximum market conviction.
3. Professional Implementation (Structural View)
MTF Trend Matrix: A built-in dashboard provides a 1H, 4H, and 1D diagnosis to ensure local setups align with the Macro Trend.
Smart Invalidation (Adaptive Trendlines): The engine draws dynamic geometry to define the current "Structural Floor/Ceiling." A decisive close beyond these lines acts as a clear Invalidation Point for the current thesis.
Mean Reversion: The system uses the 200-EMA as the primary directional filter, defining whether the market is in a "Bullish Expansion" or "Bearish Correction" state.
⚠️ Risk Disclaimer
Trading financial instruments involves significant risk. Quant-Action Pro is an educational tool designed for research and structural analysis. It does not provide financial advice. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always use strict risk management.
Max Pain Options [QuantLabs] v5 (Balanced)Institutional Grade Options Analysis: Max Pain, Gamma & Pin Risk
For years, TradingView users have been flying blind without access to Options Chain data. QuantLabs: Max Pain & Gamma Exposure changes that. This is not just a support/resistance indicator—it is a sophisticated, algorithmic model that reverse-engineers the incentives of Market Makers using synthetic Black-Scholes logic.
This tool visualizes the "invisible hand" of the market: the hedging requirements of large dealers who are forced to buy or sell to keep their books neutral.
CORE FEATURES:
🔴 Max Pain Gravity Model The bright red line represents the "Max Pain" strike—the price level where the maximum amount of Options Open Interest (Calls + Puts) expires worthless.
Theory: As OpEx (Expiration) approaches, Market Makers maximize profits by pinning the price to this level.
Strategy: Use this as a mean-reversion target. If price is far away, look for a snap-back to the red line.
🟣 Gamma Exposure Profiles (The Purple Lines) These neon histograms show you the estimated "Gamma Walls."
Long Gamma: Dealers trade against the trend (stabilizing price).
Short Gamma: Dealers trade with the trend (accelerating volatility).
Visual: The larger the purple bar, the harder it will be for price to break through that level.
📦 Algorithmic "Pin Risk" Zones The dashed red box highlights the "Kill Zone." When price enters this area near expiration, volatility often dies as dealers pin the asset to kill retail premiums.
Warning: Do not expect breakouts while inside the Pin Zone.
📊 Institutional HUD A clean, non-intrusive dashboard provides real-time Greeks and risk analysis:
Pin Risk: High/Medium/Low probability of a pinned close.
Exp Mode: Detects if the market is in "Short Gamma" (Squeeze territory) or "Long Gamma" (Chop territory).
HOW IT WORKS (The Math): Since live options data is not available via Pine Script, this engine uses a proprietary Synthetic OI Distribution Model. It inputs Volume, Volatility (IV), and Time-to-Expiry into a modified Black-Scholes equation to probability-map where the heavy open interest likely sits.
SETTINGS & CUSTOMIZATION:
Responsiveness: Tuned for the "Goldilocks Zone" (Spread: 12, Decay: 22) to catch local liquidity walls without over-fitting.
Visuals: Designed for Dark Mode. High-contrast Neon aesthetics for maximum readability.
BB Squeeze - HighQToolsBBW Squeeze — HighQTools
As always, if anyone has any tips or additional features they'd like to see, feel free to reach out!
Overview
The BBW Percentile Squeeze highlights periods of exceptionally compressed volatility by measuring Bollinger Band Width (BBW) and ranking it within a rolling historical percentile. When BBW falls into the lowest portion of its own distribution, price is statistically “tight” relative to recent history—a condition that often precedes volatility expansion.
Instead of plotting an oscillator in a separate pane, this tool expresses information directly on the price chart by changing bar colors during squeeze conditions, keeping charts clean and execution-focused.
How It Works
Standard Bollinger Bands are calculated using a configurable length and standard deviation.
Band width is normalized and evaluated against a rolling lookback window.
The current width is converted into a percentile rank (0–100):
Lower percentile = tighter volatility
Higher percentile = expanded volatility
When the percentile drops below the user-defined threshold, the market is considered to be in a squeeze.
An optional RTH-only mode allows the percentile calculation to consider Regular Trading Hours bars only, which is especially useful for futures traders who want to ignore overnight volatility distortions.
Visual Signals
Squeeze Bars
Bars are recolored when BBW percentile falls below the selected threshold, indicating extreme compression.
Release Bar (optional)
The first bar exiting the squeeze can be highlighted separately, marking the resolution of compression.
No oscillator, no bands, no shapes—only context applied directly to price.
How to Use It
The squeeze itself is not a trade signal.
Squeeze conditions indicate stored energy—expect range expansion, not direction.
Focus on:
Market structure
Higher-timeframe context
Volume, delta, or acceptance/rejection
The release from squeeze often provides the best opportunity, especially when aligned with directional bias or structural breaks.
For best results, use this tool as a context filter alongside execution setups rather than as a standalone entry signal.
Recommended Settings
BB Length: 10
Std Dev: 2.0
Percentile Lookback: 200–300 bars
Squeeze Threshold: 5-10 percentile
RTH-only: Enabled for index futures
Disclaimer
This indicator is designed to provide context, not predictions. Always combine volatility information with sound risk management and a complete trading plan.
Volatility Squeeze Pro [JOAT]
Volatility Squeeze Pro — Advanced Volatility Compression Analysis System
This indicator addresses a specific analytical challenge in volatility analysis: how to identify periods when different volatility measurements show compression relationships that may indicate potential energy buildup in the market. It combines two distinct volatility calculation methods—standard deviation-based bands and ATR-based channels—with a momentum oscillator to provide comprehensive volatility state analysis.
Why This Combination Provides Unique Analytical Value
Traditional volatility indicators typically focus on single measurements, but markets exhibit different types of volatility that require different analytical approaches:
1. **Closing Price Volatility** (Standard Deviation): Measures how much closing prices deviate from their average
2. **Trading Range Volatility** (ATR): Measures the actual high-to-low trading ranges
3. **Directional Momentum**: Measures where price sits within its recent range
The problem with using these individually:
- Standard deviation alone doesn't account for intraday volatility
- ATR alone doesn't consider closing price clustering
- Momentum alone doesn't provide volatility context
- No single measurement captures the complete volatility picture
This indicator's originality lies in creating a comprehensive volatility analysis system that:
**Identifies Volatility Compression**: When closing price volatility contracts inside trading range volatility, it suggests potential energy buildup
**Provides Momentum Context**: Shows directional bias during compression periods
**Offers Multi-Dimensional Analysis**: Combines three different analytical approaches into one coherent system
**Delivers Real-Time Assessment**: Continuously monitors the relationship between different volatility types
Technical Innovation and Originality
While individual components (Bollinger Bands, Keltner Channels, Linear Regression) are standard, the innovation lies in:
1. **Volatility Relationship Detection**: The mathematical comparison between standard deviation bands and ATR channels creates a unique compression identification system
2. **Integrated Momentum Analysis**: Linear regression-based momentum calculation provides directional context specifically during volatility compression periods
3. **Multi-State Visualization**: The indicator provides clear visual encoding of different volatility states (compressed vs. normal) with momentum direction
4. **Adaptive Threshold System**: The squeeze detection automatically adapts to different instruments and timeframes without manual calibration
How the Components Work Together Analytically
The three components create a comprehensive volatility analysis framework:
**Standard Deviation Component**: Measures closing price dispersion around the mean
float bbBasis = ta.sma(close, bbLength)
float bbDev = bbMult * ta.stdev(close, bbLength)
float bbUpper = bbBasis + bbDev
float bbLower = bbBasis - bbDev
**ATR Channel Component**: Measures actual trading range volatility
float kcBasis = ta.ema(close, kcLength)
float kcRange = ta.atr(atrLength)
float kcUpper = kcBasis + kcRange * kcMult
float kcLower = kcBasis - kcRange * kcMult
**Squeeze Detection Logic**: Identifies when closing price volatility compresses within trading range volatility
bool squeezeOn = bbLower > kcLower and bbUpper < kcUpper
// This condition indicates closing prices are clustering more tightly
// than the typical trading range would suggest
**Momentum Context Component**: Provides directional bias during compression
float highestHigh = ta.highest(high, momLength)
float lowestLow = ta.lowest(low, momLength)
float momentum = ta.linreg(close - math.avg(highestHigh, lowestLow), momLength, 0)
float momSmooth = ta.sma(momentum, smoothLength)
The analytical relationship creates a system where:
- Squeeze detection identifies WHEN volatility compression occurs
- Momentum analysis shows WHERE price is positioned during compression
- Combined analysis provides both timing and directional context
How the Volatility Comparison Works
The indicator compares two volatility measurements:
Standard Deviation Bands
These measure how much closing prices deviate from their average. When prices cluster tightly around the average, the bands contract.
// Standard deviation bands calculation
float bbBasis = ta.sma(close, bbLength)
float bbDev = bbMult * ta.stdev(close, bbLength)
float bbUpper = bbBasis + bbDev
float bbLower = bbBasis - bbDev
ATR-Based Channels
These measure volatility using Average True Range—the typical distance between high and low prices. They respond to the actual trading range rather than closing price dispersion.
// ATR-based channels calculation
float kcBasis = ta.ema(close, kcLength)
float kcRange = ta.atr(atrLength)
float kcUpper = kcBasis + kcRange * kcMult
float kcLower = kcBasis - kcRange * kcMult
The Squeeze Condition
A "squeeze" is detected when the standard deviation bands are completely contained within the ATR channels:
// Squeeze detection
bool squeezeOn = bbLower > kcLower and bbUpper < kcUpper
This condition indicates that closing price volatility has compressed relative to the overall trading range.
The Momentum Component
The momentum oscillator measures where price sits relative to its recent high-low range, using linear regression for smoothing:
// Momentum calculation
float highestHigh = ta.highest(high, momLength)
float lowestLow = ta.lowest(low, momLength)
float momentum = ta.linreg(close - math.avg(highestHigh, lowestLow), momLength, 0)
float momSmooth = ta.sma(momentum, smoothLength)
Positive values indicate price is above the midpoint of its recent range; negative values indicate below.
Why Display Both Together
The squeeze detection shows WHEN volatility is compressed. The momentum reading shows the current directional bias of price within that compression. Together, they provide two pieces of information:
1. Is volatility currently compressed? (squeeze status)
2. Where is price leaning within the current range? (momentum)
These are observations about current conditions, not predictions about future movement.

Important Limitations and Realistic Expectations
Volatility compression detection is a mathematical relationship between calculations—it does not predict future price movements
Many compression periods do not result in significant price expansion or directional moves
Momentum direction during compression does not reliably indicate future breakout direction
This indicator analyzes current and historical volatility conditions only—it cannot predict future volatility
False signals are common—not every squeeze leads to tradeable price movement
Different parameter settings will produce different compression detection sensitivity
Market conditions, news events, and fundamental factors often override technical volatility patterns
No volatility indicator can predict the timing, direction, or magnitude of future price movements
This tool should be used as one component of comprehensive market analysis
Appropriate Use Cases
This indicator is designed for:
- Volatility state analysis and monitoring
- Educational study of volatility relationships
- Multi-dimensional volatility assessment
- Supplementary analysis alongside other technical tools
- Understanding market compression/expansion cycles
This indicator is NOT designed for:
- Standalone trading signal generation
- Guaranteed breakout prediction
- Automated trading system triggers
- Market timing precision
- Replacement of fundamental analysis
Understanding Volatility Analysis Limitations
Volatility analysis, while useful for understanding market conditions, has inherent limitations:
- Past volatility patterns do not guarantee future patterns
- Compression periods can extend much longer than expected
- Expansion periods may be brief and insufficient for trading
- External factors (news, fundamentals) often override technical patterns
- Different markets and timeframes exhibit different volatility characteristics

BAVC (Clone) Rolling Curves, Peak MarkersBAVC (Clone) — Rolling Curves + Peak Markers
BAVC (Clone) is a volume-based momentum and participation indicator designed to visualize aggressive buying vs aggressive selling pressure using rolling volume curves and structural peak detection.
This script is a functional clone of a Bid/Ask Volume Curve concept, implemented using approximated volume splitting (uptick/downtick or close vs open) so it works on standard TradingView data without requiring true bid/ask feeds.
What the Indicator Shows
1. Rolling Buy & Sell Volume Curves
Volume is split into Buy (aggressive buyers) and Sell (aggressive sellers) using a selectable approximation method.
Each side is accumulated over a configurable lookback window.
Optional EMA smoothing is applied to reduce noise and highlight participation trends.
Interpretation:
Rising Buy Curve → increasing buyer dominance
Rising Sell Curve → increasing seller dominance
Expanding separation → stronger directional conviction
Convergence / flattening → balance, absorption, or transition
2. Adaptive Color Intensity (Optional)
Curve opacity can remain fixed or
Automatically adapt based on relative dominance strength
Stronger imbalances visually stand out without adding extra indicators
3. Structural Peak & Trough Detection
The script identifies significant local extremes in both curves:
Buy-side peaks & troughs
Sell-side peaks & troughs
Each peak is filtered using:
Swing width (bars left/right)
Relative strength vs recent maximum
Minimum depth for troughs
Markers can be displayed as:
Circles directly on the curves, or
Minimal labels (▲ / ▼)
Interpretation:
Buy-side highs → possible exhaustion or distribution
Buy-side lows → loss of initiative / absorption
Sell-side highs → aggressive selling climax
Sell-side lows → selling pressure weakening
4. Alerts
Optional alerts fire when:
A significant Buy-side peak forms
A significant Buy-side trough forms
A significant Sell-side peak forms
A significant Sell-side trough forms
These are intended as contextual signals, not standalone trade triggers.
5. Status Line Helper
An optional real-time status label displays:
Lookback settings
Current rolling Buy and Sell volume sums
This is useful for quick confirmation without opening the settings panel.
Important Notes
This indicator uses volume behavior, not price.
It is best used as a confirmation tool alongside:
Structure
Time-based context
VWAP / trend filters
It does not generate buy or sell signals by itself.
Best Use Cases
Spotting institutional participation
Confirming trend strength or exhaustion
Identifying absorption before reversals
Filtering low-quality entries during choppy periods
Market Acceptance Envelope [Interakktive]The Market Acceptance Envelope (MAE) is a diagnostic tool that shows where price statistically belongs — not where it might go. Unlike traditional bands that expand with volatility, MAE expands with acceptance: regions where price rotates comfortably, efficiency drops, and the market agrees on fair value.
This is the anti-Bollinger thesis: bands should represent where price IS accepted, not where it MIGHT reach based on standard deviation.
█ USAGE
The filled corridor represents the current acceptance zone — where price has demonstrated rotational behavior with low directional efficiency. When price is inside the corridor, it's "home." When outside, it's exploring territory the market hasn't yet accepted.
For discretionary traders, MAE provides instant context: "Is price where it belongs, or is it extended?"
For systematic traders, the exported values (confidence, asymmetry, position) can inform position sizing and filter logic.
█ ACCEPTANCE CENTROID
Unlike traditional bands centered on a moving average, MAE uses an Acceptance Centroid — a time-weighted price level where acceptance behavior concentrates. The centroid is calculated by weighting price by:
• Inverse efficiency (low efficiency = high acceptance)
• Volatility stability (stable vol = higher weight)
• Dwell factor (time spent near level)
This means the centroid drifts toward where price actually rotates, not simply where it averages.
█ ASYMMETRIC BOUNDARIES
MAE calculates upper and lower boundaries independently. Markets rarely treat up and down equally — during uptrends, the upper boundary may be wider (more accepted upside exploration), while the lower boundary stays tight (quick rejection of dips).
This asymmetry is visible on the chart and exported as a metric (-1 to +1).
█ CONFIDENCE-BASED VISIBILITY
The corridor's opacity reflects acceptance confidence:
• High confidence → clearly visible corridor (price is in accepted rotation)
• Low confidence → faded corridor (trending/directional market, acceptance not established)
When the corridor fades, it's telling you: "Acceptance hasn't been earned here yet."
█ WHAT THIS INDICATOR IS
• A diagnostic acceptance envelope showing where price statistically belongs
• Asymmetric by design — upper and lower calculated independently
• Confidence-weighted visibility — fades when acceptance is not earned
• Non-repainting — uses closed-bar data only
█ WHAT THIS INDICATOR IS NOT
• NOT Bollinger Bands (no standard deviation around a mean)
• NOT Keltner Channels (no ATR-scaled envelope)
• NOT a signal generator — no touches = signals philosophy
• NO arrows, NO entries/exits, NO buy/sell recommendations
█ HOW IT WORKS
MAE uses an acceptance-weighted calculation approach:
1. ACCEPTANCE WEIGHT
Each bar receives a weight based on:
• Efficiency: (1 - efficiency) — low efficiency = rotational = high acceptance
• Volatility Stability: stable vol environment = higher weight
• Dwell Factor: price staying near central tendency = higher weight
2. ACCEPTANCE CENTROID
Weighted average of price using acceptance weights:
centroid = Σ(price × weight) / Σ(weight)
Smoothed adaptively — faster during drift, slower when stable.
3. ASYMMETRIC BOUNDARIES
Upper and lower distances calculated separately:
• rngUp = acceptance-weighted average of (price - centroid) when price > centroid
• rngDn = acceptance-weighted average of (centroid - price) when price < centroid
4. CONFIDENCE SCORE
Composite of average acceptance weight, volatility stability, and centroid stability.
Maps to corridor opacity: high confidence = visible, low confidence = faded.
█ SETTINGS
Market Acceptance Envelope — Core
• Acceptance Lookback (20): Bars to evaluate for acceptance conditions. Higher = smoother, slower response.

这是一个为实盘决策服务，而非视觉美观的专业级日内交易辅助指标。
======================================================================
Dual-Timeframe ABR Dashboard is a volatility reference tool designed specifically for day traders, providing a clear view of Average Bar Range (ABR) on both the current timeframe and the daily timeframe.
By measuring the simple average of each bar’s high–low range, this indicator helps traders quickly assess:
What constitutes a “normal” bar movement on the active timeframe
Current price movement expressed as a percentage of ABR
Whether the session has already consumed most of its typical daily range
Instead of plotting lines on the chart, the indicator presents real-time ABR values via the status line and a fixed dashboard table, keeping the chart clean and execution-focused.
This tool is particularly useful for:
Profit target and trade management
Evaluating remaining trend potential during the session
Avoiding late entries after the daily range is largely exhausted
Built for practical intraday decision-making, not visual clutter.
Market State Intelligence [Interakktive]Market State Intelligence (MSI) is a diagnostic market-context indicator that reveals how the market is behaving — not where price "should" go.
MSI does not generate buy/sell signals. Instead, it classifies market conditions into clear behavioural regimes by continuously measuring:
- DRIVE (directional effort)
- OPPOSITION (absorption / resistance)
- STABILITY (structural persistence)
MSI is designed to answer three practical questions:
- What state is the market in right now?
- Is energy building, releasing, or decaying?
- Is participation aligned with price, or opposing it?
█ WHAT MSI DOES
MSI operates as a real-time regime classification engine that processes each closed bar through three independent measurement systems:
DRIVE — Directional Effort (0–100)
- Displacement efficiency (net progress vs total path)
- Range expansion quality (actual range vs expected ATR range)
- Body dominance (body vs candle range)
OPPOSITION — Absorption / Resistance (0–100)
- Wick pressure (rejection relative to attempt)
- Effort–result gap (high effort, low progress)
- Reversal density (counter-moves frequency)
STABILITY — Persistence (0–100)
- Condition persistence (how long conditions hold)
- Variance score (flip frequency)
- Follow-through consistency (reaction continuity)
These three forces feed a deterministic classifier with hysteresis (anti-flicker) to identify five regimes:
COMPRESSION — low drive, low opposition, higher stability (pressure building, direction unclear)
EXPANSION — high drive, low opposition (directional energy release)
TREND — medium-high drive, higher stability, low-medium opposition (healthy continuation)
DISTRIBUTION — medium drive, high opposition (effort absorbed; progress blocked)
TRANSITION — rapidly rising opposition, low stability (regime breakdown / uncertainty)
█ WHAT MSI DOES NOT DO
- No buy/sell signals, entries/exits, or performance claims
- No prediction of future direction
- No repainting: calculations use closed-bar data only
MSI is a market state layer intended to support your execution framework.
█ VISUAL SYSTEM
MSI uses a layered visual grammar designed to remain readable on live charts:
Regime Ribbon
A thin horizontal band showing the current regime via colour. Ribbon opacity reflects regime confidence (stronger confidence = more visible).
Pressure Envelope (core visual)
A soft corridor around price that expands with Drive and becomes more visible as Opposition increases. This visualises "pressure thickness" around current action (not a volatility band for entries).
Structural Memory
Faint background stains appear where regimes previously failed (e.g., expansion collapsing into absorption). These are behavioural context zones showing where market intention was rejected — not support/resistance.
Regime Change Markers (optional)
Subtle labels appear when regimes transition after confirmation. Useful for replay and education.
Effort Halo (optional)
Candle highlighting when Opposition materially exceeds Drive, indicating absorption/inefficiency.
█ HUD PANEL
The HUD displays:
- Current regime name + colour indicator
- A context gate showing whether conditions are aligned with long-bias or short-bias context (not an entry/exit system)
█ REGIME LEGEND
When enabled, displays:
- A one-line definition of the current regime
- Live Drive / Opposition / Stability values for interpretation
█ TIME-TO-DECISION METER
A visual pressure gauge that tends to fill during Compression (energy building) and drain during Expansion (energy releasing). It is a state-tracking meter, not a timing tool.
█ SETTINGS
MSI — Settings
- Preset Mode: Scalper / Swing / Position
- Analysis Mode (Minimal): ON = subtle visuals, OFF = full intensity
- Regime Ribbon, Structural Memory, HUD Panel, Time-to-Decision Meter, Effort Halo
MSI — Visual Options
- Show Regime Changes: Labels when regime transitions occur
- Show Regime Legend: Definition and live values display
- Panel Position: Move the entire panel anywhere on chart
MSI — Advanced (Tuning)
- Sensitivity (0.5–2.0)
- Smoothing (0.5–2.0)
- Memory Decay (0.5–2.0)
- Visual Intensity (Low / Medium / High)
█ PRESETS EXPLAINED
Scalper
Higher sensitivity + lower smoothing + faster memory decay. Best for 1m–15m monitoring.
Swing (default)
Balanced behaviour. Best for 15m–4H analysis.
Position
Lower sensitivity + higher smoothing + slower memory decay. Best for 4H–1D macro context.
█ STRUCTURAL MEMORY
When a regime fails (example: Expansion → Distribution), MSI creates a memory imprint:
- Fixed stain window (preset dependent)
- Strength decays over time
- Limited to a maximum number of imprints to reduce chart clutter
These zones represent behavioural rejection, not levels.
█ SUITABLE MARKETS
MSI is designed for Forex, Crypto, Indices, Stocks, and Commodities.
Works from intraday to Daily, with particularly strong readability on 15m–4H.
█ DISCLAIMER
This indicator is for educational and informational purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice, trading recommendations, or solicitation. Trading involves substantial risk. Always use proper risk management and make independent decisions.
Volume Weighted ATRThis script implements a Volume‑Weighted Average True Range (VWATR) indicator, a variation of ATR that incorporates trading volume into the volatility calculation. Instead of treating all price movements equally, it amplifies true range during high‑volume periods and dampens it during low‑volume periods, producing a volatility measure that adapts to liquidity conditions. The script begins by allowing the user to choose a lookback length and a smoothing method, offering RMA, SMA, EMA, or WMA for flexibility in how responsive the indicator should be.
The core of the calculation starts with the standard true range, which captures the most meaningful price movement of each bar. This true range is then multiplied by volume, creating a volume‑weighted true range that gives more importance to bars where market participation is higher. To ensure consistency, the script defines a custom moving‑average function that applies the selected smoothing method to any input series. This function is used twice: once to smooth the volume‑weighted true range and once to smooth volume itself.
The final VWATR value is obtained by dividing the smoothed volume‑weighted true range by the smoothed volume. Mathematically, this produces a volume‑weighted mean of true range, making the indicator more sensitive to volatility expansions that occur with strong participation and less reactive to low‑volume noise. The script concludes by plotting this VWATR line, giving traders a clean, adaptive measure of volatility that can be used for regime detection, breakout confirmation, or dynamic stop sizing

Spike Detector (Ticks / Points) helps you easily spot large, high-volatility candles on your chart. These “spike” candles often happen during strong momentum, breakouts, stop runs, or sudden reversals.
Instead of guessing whether a candle is “big enough,” this indicator automatically measures each candle’s size and highlights it when it exceeds a threshold you choose.
How It Works (Simple Explanation)
The indicator measures the high-to-low range of every candle
It converts that range into ticks using the instrument’s minimum tick size
If the candle size is equal to or greater than your selected threshold, it is marked as a spike
Spike candles are:
Colored green for bullish candles
Colored red for bearish candles
A label is placed on the chart showing the candle size in ticks or points
This logic is non-repainting and works on all timeframes.
