DESIGNED FOR DAILY CHARTS
Weis Wave ChartThis indicator is based on the Weis Wave described by David H. Weis in his book Trades About to Happen: A Modern Adaptation of the Wyckoff Method, more info how to use this indicator can be found in this video . The Weis Wave is an adaptation of Richard D. Wyckoff’s method Wave Charts. It works in all time periods and can be applied to all asset types.
Unlike other implementations I found here on TradingView, this implementation make use of a Renko-like zig zag pattern, very similar to how it is described in David H. Weis' book. The settings for the zig zag pattern are very similar to the standard Renko settings here on TradingView, in the "Renko Assignment Method" you either chose "ATR" or "Traditional" (read more about it here ). The ATR length or the brick size is then entered in the textbox "Value". You can also chose another setting in the "Renko Assignment Method" drop down named "Part of Price" which calculate the brick size from the current close and divide it by the value in the text box "Value". It is also possible to chose if the zig zag pattern shall use the high/low, the open/close or just the close as the most extreme values in its calculation, you select this in the drop down "Price Source".
TradingView's pine script does currently not support to print non-static text on the chart, so it is not possible at this point to write out the volume on the zig zag chart. It is also not possible to have both an overlay and separate chart pane in the same indicator, therefor this indicator is split up in two.

Smart Money Flow Signals [QuantAlgo]🟢 Overview
The Smart Money Flow Signals indicator synthesizes significant volume-price dynamics through multi-component analysis to identify potential accumulation and distribution phases driven by substantial market participants. It combines Money Flow Index momentum, Chaikin Money Flow accumulation patterns, volume-weighted price momentum, and buying/selling pressure metrics into a unified composite oscillator that quantifies periods of concentrated capital movement, helping traders and investors identify conditions where significant volume participants may be actively positioning across multiple market conditions and timeframes.
🟢 How It Works
The indicator's core methodology lies in its weighted composite approach, where multiple volume-price components are calculated sequentially and then integrated to create a comprehensive significant flow activity signal.
First, the Money Flow Index (MFI) is calculated to measure buying and selling pressure by incorporating volume into price momentum analysis:
raw_money_flow = source * volume
positive_flow = source >= source ? raw_money_flow : 0
negative_flow = source < source ? raw_money_flow : 0
positive_money_flow = math.sum(positive_flow, mfi_period)
negative_money_flow = math.sum(negative_flow, mfi_period)
money_flow_index = 100 - 100 / (1 + positive_money_flow / negative_money_flow)
This creates an RSI-style momentum indicator that tracks whether money (price × volume) is flowing into or out of the asset, with values ranging from 0 to 100 where readings above 50 suggest buying pressure dominance.
Then, Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) is computed to evaluate accumulation and distribution by analyzing where prices close within each bar's range, weighted by volume:
money_flow_multiplier = high != low ? (close - low - (high - close)) / (high - low) : 0
money_flow_volume = money_flow_multiplier * volume
volume_sma = ta.sma(volume, trend_period)
chaikin_money_flow = volume_sma != 0 ? ta.sma(money_flow_volume, trend_period) / volume_sma : 0
Positive CMF values indicate accumulation (closes near the high of the range), while negative values indicate distribution (closes near the low of the range), with volume weighting emphasizing periods of significant participation.
Next, Volume Analysis is performed to quantify current volume intensity relative to historical averages:
volume_average = ta.sma(volume, trend_period)
volume_strength = volume_average != 0 ? volume / volume_average : 1
volume_weight = math.log(volume_strength + 1)
The logarithmic transformation creates a volume weight that amplifies signals during high-volume periods while preventing extreme volume spikes from overwhelming the composite calculation.
Following this, Buy/Sell Pressure is quantified by comparing cumulative volume during bullish versus bearish candles:
buying_pressure = math.sum(volume * (close >= open ? 1 : 0), trend_period)
selling_pressure = math.sum(volume * (close < open ? 1 : 0), trend_period)
pressure_ratio = (buying_pressure - selling_pressure) / (buying_pressure + selling_pressure) * 100
This creates a directional pressure ratio that reveals whether significant participants are predominantly buying or selling, expressed as a percentage between -100 (all selling) and +100 (all buying).
Then, Volume-Weighted Momentum is calculated through an exponential smoothing channel that adjusts price deviation based on volume intensity:
exponential_smooth_average = ta.ema(source, momentum_channel_period)
deviation = ta.ema(math.abs(source - exponential_smooth_average), momentum_channel_period)
channel_index = deviation != 0 ? (source - exponential_smooth_average) / (0.015 * deviation) * (1 + volume_weight * 0.5) : 0
This channel index measures how far price has deviated from its exponential average relative to typical deviation, with the volume weight multiplier (1 + volume_weight * 0.5) amplifying the signal when significant volume accompanies the price movement.
Finally, the Composite Wave is constructed by combining all components with specific weighting to create the final oscillator:
momentum_wave = ta.ema(channel_index, trend_period)
money_flow_wave = (money_flow_index - 50) * 1.2
chaikin_flow_wave = chaikin_money_flow * 100
composite_wave = momentum_wave * 0.5 + chaikin_flow_wave * 0.3 + money_flow_wave * 0.2
smoothed_wave = ta.sma(composite_wave, signal_smoothing)
This creates a multi-dimensional volume flow oscillator that combines price-volume momentum, accumulation-distribution patterns, and buying-selling pressure into a single signal, providing traders with probabilistic insights into periods of concentrated market activity and directional bias based on weighted component convergence.
🟢 Signal Interpretation
▶ Positive Values (Above Zero, Green): Composite money flow above equilibrium indicating net accumulation pressure, positive buying volume dominance, and bullish volume-price alignment = Favorable conditions for long positions, significant capital flowing into the asset = Buy/hold opportunities
▶ Negative Values (Below Zero, Red): Composite money flow below equilibrium indicating net distribution pressure, negative selling volume dominance, and bearish volume-price alignment = Unfavorable conditions for long positions, significant capital flowing out of the asset = Sell/short opportunities
▶ Extreme Overbought Zone: Excessive bullish money flow indicating potential accumulation exhaustion, where buying pressure may have reached unsustainable levels with elevated reversal risk = Caution on new longs, potential distribution phase beginning, profit-taking zone for existing positions
▶ Extreme Oversold Zone: Excessive bearish money flow indicating potential distribution exhaustion, where selling pressure may have reached unsustainable levels with elevated reversal risk = Caution on new shorts, potential accumulation phase beginning, buying opportunity zone for contrarian entries
▶ Smoothed Trend Line (White) Alignment: When the smoothed trend line confirms the composite wave direction, it validates the underlying volume-price trend and filters false signals caused by short-term noise
▶ Volume Intensity Correlation: Gradient intensity (color saturation) reflects combined wave strength, volume participation, and directional alignment, where darker/more saturated colors indicate stronger concentrated activity and higher-probability directional moves
🟢 Features
▶ Preconfigured Presets: Three optimized parameter configurations accommodate different trading styles, timeframes, and market analysis approaches.
1. "Default" provides balanced volume flow measurement suitable for swing trading on 4-hour and daily charts, offering moderate responsiveness to money flow shifts with standard RSI-equivalent MFI period and moderate smoothing for most market conditions.
2. "Fast Response" delivers heightened sensitivity optimized for active intraday trading and scalping on 1-minute to 1-hour charts, using compressed calculation periods across all components and minimal smoothing to capture rapid volume flow changes and quick trend shifts as they develop, ideal for early entry/exit opportunities with acceptance of increased signal frequency during consolidation.
3. "Smooth Trend" offers conservative extreme identification ideal for position trading and long-term analysis on daily to weekly charts, employing extended periods across all money flow components with substantial smoothing to filter short-term noise and isolate only strong, sustained accumulation and distribution phases driven by significant volume participants.
▶ Built-in Alerts: Seven alert conditions enable comprehensive automated monitoring of significant money flow transitions and extreme market states.
1. "Bullish Flow" triggers when the composite wave crosses above zero, signaling the shift from distribution to accumulation and concentrated buying activity beginning.
2. "Bearish Flow" activates when the composite wave crosses below zero, signaling the shift from accumulation to distribution and concentrated selling activity starting.
3. "Any Flow Direction Change" provides a combined notification for either bullish or bearish crossover regardless of direction, useful for general money flow momentum shifts.
4. "Extreme Overbought" alerts when the composite wave reaches or exceeds the overbought threshold (default +60), indicating excessive buying pressure and potential exhaustion.
5. "Extreme Oversold" notifies when the composite wave reaches or falls below the oversold threshold (default -60), indicating excessive selling pressure and potential capitulation.
6. "Overbought Reversal" triggers specifically when the wave crosses back down through the overbought level after being extended, signaling the beginning of distribution from extreme levels.
7. "Oversold Reversal" activates when the wave crosses back up through the oversold level after being extended, signaling the beginning of accumulation from extreme levels.
▶ Color Customization: Six visual themes (Classic, Aqua, Cosmic, Ember, Neon, plus Custom) accommodate different chart backgrounds and visual preferences, ensuring optimal contrast and immediate identification of bullish versus bearish volume flow conditions across various devices and screen sizes. Optional bar coloring provides instant visual context of current significant volume activity intensity and direction without switching between the price pane and indicator pane, enabling traders and investors to immediately assess volume-price positioning dynamics while analyzing price action.
Adaptive Market Wave TheoryAdaptive Market Wave Theory
🌊 CORE INNOVATION: PROBABILISTIC PHASE DETECTION WITH MULTI-AGENT CONSENSUS
Adaptive Market Wave Theory (AMWT) represents a fundamental paradigm shift in how traders approach market phase identification. Rather than counting waves subjectively or drawing static breakout levels, AMWT treats the market as a hidden state machine —using Hidden Markov Models, multi-agent consensus systems, and reinforcement learning algorithms to quantify what traditional methods leave to interpretation.
The Wave Analysis Problem:
Traditional wave counting methodologies (Elliott Wave, harmonic patterns, ABC corrections) share fatal weaknesses that AMWT directly addresses:
1. Non-Falsifiability : Invalid wave counts can always be "recounted" or "adjusted." If your Wave 3 fails, it becomes "Wave 3 of a larger degree" or "actually Wave C." There's no objective failure condition.
2. Observer Bias : Two expert wave analysts examining the same chart routinely reach different conclusions. This isn't a feature—it's a fundamental methodology flaw.
3. No Confidence Measure : Traditional analysis says "This IS Wave 3." But with what probability? 51%? 95%? The binary nature prevents proper position sizing and risk management.
4. Static Rules : Fixed Fibonacci ratios and wave guidelines cannot adapt to changing market regimes. What worked in 2019 may fail in 2024.
5. No Accountability : Wave methodologies rarely track their own performance. There's no feedback loop to improve.
The AMWT Solution:
AMWT addresses each limitation through rigorous mathematical frameworks borrowed from speech recognition, machine learning, and reinforcement learning:
• Non-Falsifiability → Hard Invalidation : Wave hypotheses die permanently when price violates calculated invalidation levels. No recounting allowed.
• Observer Bias → Multi-Agent Consensus : Three independent analytical agents must agree. Single-methodology bias is eliminated.
• No Confidence → Probabilistic States : Every market state has a calculated probability from Hidden Markov Model inference. "72% probability of impulse state" replaces "This is Wave 3."
• Static Rules → Adaptive Learning : Thompson Sampling multi-armed bandits learn which agents perform best in current conditions. The system adapts in real-time.
• No Accountability → Performance Tracking : Comprehensive statistics track every signal's outcome. The system knows its own performance.
The Core Insight:
"Traditional wave analysis asks 'What count is this?' AMWT asks 'What is the probability we are in an impulsive state, with what confidence, confirmed by how many independent methodologies, and anchored to what liquidity event?'"
🔬 THEORETICAL FOUNDATION: HIDDEN MARKOV MODELS
Why Hidden Markov Models?
Markets exist in hidden states that we cannot directly observe—only their effects on price are visible. When the market is in an "impulse up" state, we see rising prices, expanding volume, and trending indicators. But we don't observe the state itself—we infer it from observables.
This is precisely the problem Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) solve. Originally developed for speech recognition (inferring words from sound waves), HMMs excel at estimating hidden states from noisy observations.
HMM Components:
1. Hidden States (S) : The unobservable market conditions
2. Observations (O) : What we can measure (price, volume, indicators)
3. Transition Matrix (A) : Probability of moving between states
4. Emission Matrix (B) : Probability of observations given each state
5. Initial Distribution (π) : Starting state probabilities
AMWT's Six Market States:
State 0: IMPULSE_UP
• Definition: Strong bullish momentum with high participation
• Observable Signatures: Rising prices, expanding volume, RSI >60, price above upper Bollinger Band, MACD histogram positive and rising
• Typical Duration: 5-20 bars depending on timeframe
• What It Means: Institutional buying pressure, trend acceleration phase
State 1: IMPULSE_DN
• Definition: Strong bearish momentum with high participation
• Observable Signatures: Falling prices, expanding volume, RSI <40, price below lower Bollinger Band, MACD histogram negative and falling
• Typical Duration: 5-20 bars (often shorter than bullish impulses—markets fall faster)
• What It Means: Institutional selling pressure, panic or distribution acceleration
State 2: CORRECTION
• Definition: Counter-trend consolidation with declining momentum
• Observable Signatures: Sideways or mild counter-trend movement, contracting volume, RSI returning toward 50, Bollinger Bands narrowing
• Typical Duration: 8-30 bars
• What It Means: Profit-taking, digestion of prior move, potential accumulation for next leg
State 3: ACCUMULATION
• Definition: Base-building near lows where informed participants absorb supply
• Observable Signatures: Price near recent lows but not making new lows, volume spikes on up bars, RSI showing positive divergence, tight range
• Typical Duration: 15-50 bars
• What It Means: Smart money buying from weak hands, preparing for markup phase
State 4: DISTRIBUTION
• Definition: Top-forming near highs where informed participants distribute holdings
• Observable Signatures: Price near recent highs but struggling to advance, volume spikes on down bars, RSI showing negative divergence, widening range
• Typical Duration: 15-50 bars
• What It Means: Smart money selling to late buyers, preparing for markdown phase
State 5: TRANSITION
• Definition: Regime change period with mixed signals and elevated uncertainty
• Observable Signatures: Conflicting indicators, whipsaw price action, no clear momentum, high volatility without direction
• Typical Duration: 5-15 bars
• What It Means: Market deciding next direction, dangerous for directional trades
The Transition Matrix:
The transition matrix A captures the probability of moving from one state to another. AMWT initializes with empirically-derived values then updates online:
From/To IMP_UP IMP_DN CORR ACCUM DIST TRANS
IMP_UP 0.70 0.02 0.20 0.02 0.04 0.02
IMP_DN 0.02 0.70 0.20 0.04 0.02 0.02
CORR 0.15 0.15 0.50 0.10 0.10 0.00
ACCUM 0.30 0.05 0.15 0.40 0.05 0.05
DIST 0.05 0.30 0.15 0.05 0.40 0.05
TRANS 0.20 0.20 0.20 0.15 0.15 0.10
Key Insights from Transition Probabilities:
• Impulse states are sticky (70% self-transition): Once trending, markets tend to continue
• Corrections can transition to either impulse direction (15% each): The next move after correction is uncertain
• Accumulation strongly favors IMP_UP transition (30%): Base-building leads to rallies
• Distribution strongly favors IMP_DN transition (30%): Topping leads to declines
The Viterbi Algorithm:
Given a sequence of observations, how do we find the most likely state sequence? This is the Viterbi algorithm—dynamic programming to find the optimal path through the state space.
Mathematical Formulation:
δ_t(j) = max_i × B_j(O_t)
Where:
δ_t(j) = probability of most likely path ending in state j at time t
A_ij = transition probability from state i to state j
B_j(O_t) = emission probability of observation O_t given state j
AMWT Implementation:
AMWT runs Viterbi over a rolling window (default 50 bars), computing the most likely state sequence and extracting:
• Current state estimate
• State confidence (probability of current state vs alternatives)
• State sequence for pattern detection
Online Learning (Baum-Welch Adaptation):
Unlike static HMMs, AMWT continuously updates its transition and emission matrices based on observed market behavior:
f_onlineUpdateHMM(prev_state, curr_state, observation, decay) =>
// Update transition matrix
A *= decay
A += (1.0 - decay)
// Renormalize row
// Update emission matrix
B *= decay
B += (1.0 - decay)
// Renormalize row
The decay parameter (default 0.85) controls adaptation speed:
• Higher decay (0.95): Slower adaptation, more stable, better for consistent markets
• Lower decay (0.80): Faster adaptation, more reactive, better for regime changes
Why This Matters for Trading:
Traditional indicators give you a number (RSI = 72). AMWT gives you a probabilistic state assessment :
"There is a 78% probability we are in IMPULSE_UP state, with 15% probability of CORRECTION and 7% distributed among other states. The transition matrix suggests 70% chance of remaining in IMPULSE_UP next bar, 20% chance of transitioning to CORRECTION."
This enables:
• Position sizing by confidence : 90% confidence = full size; 60% confidence = half size
• Risk management by transition probability : High correction probability = tighten stops
• Strategy selection by state : IMPULSE = trend-follow; CORRECTION = wait; ACCUMULATION = scale in
🎰 THE 3-BANDIT CONSENSUS SYSTEM
The Multi-Agent Philosophy:
No single analytical methodology works in all market conditions. Trend-following excels in trending markets but gets chopped in ranges. Mean-reversion excels in ranges but gets crushed in trends. Structure-based analysis works when structure is clear but fails in chaotic markets.
AMWT's solution: employ three independent agents , each analyzing the market from a different perspective, then use Thompson Sampling to learn which agents perform best in current conditions.
Agent 1: TREND AGENT
Philosophy : Markets trend. Follow the trend until it ends.
Analytical Components:
• EMA Alignment: EMA8 > EMA21 > EMA50 (bullish) or inverse (bearish)
• MACD Histogram: Direction and rate of change
• Price Momentum: Close relative to ATR-normalized movement
• VWAP Position: Price above/below volume-weighted average price
Signal Generation:
Strong Bull: EMA aligned bull AND MACD histogram > 0 AND momentum > 0.3 AND close > VWAP
→ Signal: +1 (Long), Confidence: 0.75 + |momentum| × 0.4
Moderate Bull: EMA stack bull AND MACD rising AND momentum > 0.1
→ Signal: +1 (Long), Confidence: 0.65 + |momentum| × 0.3
Strong Bear: EMA aligned bear AND MACD histogram < 0 AND momentum < -0.3 AND close < VWAP
→ Signal: -1 (Short), Confidence: 0.75 + |momentum| × 0.4
Moderate Bear: EMA stack bear AND MACD falling AND momentum < -0.1
→ Signal: -1 (Short), Confidence: 0.65 + |momentum| × 0.3
When Trend Agent Excels:
• Trend days (IB extension >1.5x)
• Post-breakout continuation
• Institutional accumulation/distribution phases
When Trend Agent Fails:
• Range-bound markets (ADX <20)
• Chop zones after volatility spikes
• Reversal days at major levels
Agent 2: REVERSION AGENT
Philosophy: Markets revert to mean. Extreme readings reverse.
Analytical Components:
• Bollinger Band Position: Distance from bands, percent B
• RSI Extremes: Overbought (>70) and oversold (<30)
• Stochastic: %K/%D crossovers at extremes
• Band Squeeze: Bollinger Band width contraction
Signal Generation:
Oversold Bounce: BB %B < 0.20 AND RSI < 35 AND Stochastic < 25
→ Signal: +1 (Long), Confidence: 0.70 + (30 - RSI) × 0.01
Overbought Fade: BB %B > 0.80 AND RSI > 65 AND Stochastic > 75
→ Signal: -1 (Short), Confidence: 0.70 + (RSI - 70) × 0.01
Squeeze Fire Bull: Band squeeze ending AND close > upper band
→ Signal: +1 (Long), Confidence: 0.65
Squeeze Fire Bear: Band squeeze ending AND close < lower band
→ Signal: -1 (Short), Confidence: 0.65
When Reversion Agent Excels:
• Rotation days (price stays within IB)
• Range-bound consolidation
• After extended moves without pullback
When Reversion Agent Fails:
• Strong trend days (RSI can stay overbought for days)
• Breakout moves
• News-driven directional moves
Agent 3: STRUCTURE AGENT
Philosophy: Market structure reveals institutional intent. Follow the smart money.
Analytical Components:
• Break of Structure (BOS): Price breaks prior swing high/low
• Change of Character (CHOCH): First break against prevailing trend
• Higher Highs/Higher Lows: Bullish structure
• Lower Highs/Lower Lows: Bearish structure
• Liquidity Sweeps: Stop runs that reverse
Signal Generation:
BOS Bull: Price breaks above prior swing high with momentum
→ Signal: +1 (Long), Confidence: 0.70 + structure_strength × 0.2
CHOCH Bull: First higher low after downtrend, breaking structure
→ Signal: +1 (Long), Confidence: 0.75
BOS Bear: Price breaks below prior swing low with momentum
→ Signal: -1 (Short), Confidence: 0.70 + structure_strength × 0.2
CHOCH Bear: First lower high after uptrend, breaking structure
→ Signal: -1 (Short), Confidence: 0.75
Liquidity Sweep Long: Price sweeps below swing low then reverses strongly
→ Signal: +1 (Long), Confidence: 0.80
Liquidity Sweep Short: Price sweeps above swing high then reverses strongly
→ Signal: -1 (Short), Confidence: 0.80
When Structure Agent Excels:
• After liquidity grabs (stop runs)
• At major swing points
• During institutional accumulation/distribution
When Structure Agent Fails:
• Choppy, structureless markets
• During news events (structure becomes noise)
• Very low timeframes (noise overwhelms structure)
Thompson Sampling: The Bandit Algorithm
With three agents giving potentially different signals, how do we decide which to trust? This is the multi-armed bandit problem —balancing exploitation (using what works) with exploration (testing alternatives).
Thompson Sampling Solution:
Each agent maintains a Beta distribution representing its success/failure history:
Agent success rate modeled as Beta(α, β)
Where:
α = number of successful signals + 1
β = number of failed signals + 1
On Each Bar:
1. Sample from each agent's Beta distribution
2. Weight agent signals by sampled probabilities
3. Combine weighted signals into consensus
4. Update α/β based on trade outcomes
Mathematical Implementation:
// Beta sampling via Gamma ratio method
f_beta_sample(alpha, beta) =>
g1 = f_gamma_sample(alpha)
g2 = f_gamma_sample(beta)
g1 / (g1 + g2)
// Thompson Sampling selection
for each agent:
sampled_prob = f_beta_sample(agent.alpha, agent.beta)
weight = sampled_prob / sum(all_sampled_probs)
consensus += agent.signal × agent.confidence × weight
Why Thompson Sampling?
• Automatic Exploration : Agents with few samples get occasional chances (high variance in Beta distribution)
• Bayesian Optimal : Mathematically proven optimal solution to exploration-exploitation tradeoff
• Uncertainty-Aware : Small sample size = more exploration; large sample size = more exploitation
• Self-Correcting : Poor performers naturally get lower weights over time
Example Evolution:
Day 1 (Initial):
Trend Agent: Beta(1,1) → samples ~0.50 (high uncertainty)
Reversion Agent: Beta(1,1) → samples ~0.50 (high uncertainty)
Structure Agent: Beta(1,1) → samples ~0.50 (high uncertainty)
After 50 Signals:
Trend Agent: Beta(28,23) → samples ~0.55 (moderate confidence)
Reversion Agent: Beta(18,33) → samples ~0.35 (underperforming)
Structure Agent: Beta(32,19) → samples ~0.63 (outperforming)
Result: Structure Agent now receives highest weight in consensus
Consensus Requirements by Mode:
Aggressive Mode:
• Minimum 1/3 agents agreeing
• Consensus threshold: 45%
• Use case: More signals, higher risk tolerance
Balanced Mode:
• Minimum 2/3 agents agreeing
• Consensus threshold: 55%
• Use case: Standard trading
Conservative Mode:
• Minimum 2/3 agents agreeing
• Consensus threshold: 65%
• Use case: Higher quality, fewer signals
Institutional Mode:
• Minimum 2/3 agents agreeing
• Consensus threshold: 75%
• Additional: Session quality >0.65, mode adjustment +0.10
• Use case: Highest quality signals only
🌀 INTELLIGENT CHOP DETECTION ENGINE
The Chop Problem:
Most trading losses occur not from being wrong about direction, but from trading in conditions where direction doesn't exist . Choppy, range-bound markets generate false signals from every methodology—trend-following, mean-reversion, and structure-based alike.
AMWT's chop detection engine identifies these low-probability environments before signals fire, preventing the most damaging trades.
Five-Factor Chop Analysis:
Factor 1: ADX Component (25% weight)
ADX (Average Directional Index) measures trend strength regardless of direction.
ADX < 15: Very weak trend (high chop score)
ADX 15-20: Weak trend (moderate chop score)
ADX 20-25: Developing trend (low chop score)
ADX > 25: Strong trend (minimal chop score)
adx_chop = (i_adxThreshold - adx_val) / i_adxThreshold × 100
Why ADX Works: ADX synthesizes +DI and -DI movements. Low ADX means price is moving but not directionally—the definition of chop.
Factor 2: Choppiness Index (25% weight)
The Choppiness Index measures price efficiency using the ratio of ATR sum to price range:
CI = 100 × LOG10(SUM(ATR, n) / (Highest - Lowest)) / LOG10(n)
CI > 61.8: Choppy (range-bound, inefficient movement)
CI < 38.2: Trending (directional, efficient movement)
CI 38.2-61.8: Transitional
chop_idx_score = (ci_val - 38.2) / (61.8 - 38.2) × 100
Why Choppiness Index Works: In trending markets, price covers distance efficiently (low ATR sum relative to range). In choppy markets, price oscillates wildly but goes nowhere (high ATR sum relative to range).
Factor 3: Range Compression (20% weight)
Compares recent range to longer-term range, detecting volatility squeezes:
recent_range = Highest(20) - Lowest(20)
longer_range = Highest(50) - Lowest(50)
compression = 1 - (recent_range / longer_range)
compression > 0.5: Strong squeeze (potential breakout imminent)
compression < 0.2: No compression (normal volatility)
range_compression_score = compression × 100
Why Range Compression Matters: Compression precedes expansion. High compression = market coiling, preparing for move. Signals during compression often fail because the breakout hasn't occurred yet.
Factor 4: Channel Position (15% weight)
Tracks price position within the macro channel:
channel_position = (close - channel_low) / (channel_high - channel_low)
position 0.4-0.6: Center of channel (indecision zone)
position <0.2 or >0.8: Near extremes (potential reversal or breakout)
channel_chop = abs(0.5 - channel_position) < 0.15 ? high_score : low_score
Why Channel Position Matters: Price in the middle of a range is in "no man's land"—equally likely to go either direction. Signals in the channel center have lower probability.
Factor 5: Volume Quality (15% weight)
Assesses volume relative to average:
vol_ratio = volume / SMA(volume, 20)
vol_ratio < 0.7: Low volume (lack of conviction)
vol_ratio 0.7-1.3: Normal volume
vol_ratio > 1.3: High volume (conviction present)
volume_chop = vol_ratio < 0.8 ? (1 - vol_ratio) × 100 : 0
Why Volume Quality Matters: Low volume moves lack institutional participation. These moves are more likely to reverse or stall.
Combined Chop Intensity:
chopIntensity = (adx_chop × 0.25) + (chop_idx_score × 0.25) +
(range_compression_score × 0.20) + (channel_chop × 0.15) +
(volume_chop × i_volumeChopWeight × 0.15)
Regime Classifications:
Based on chop intensity and component analysis:
• Strong Trend (0-20%): ADX >30, clear directional momentum, trade aggressively
• Trending (20-35%): ADX >20, moderate directional bias, trade normally
• Transitioning (35-50%): Mixed signals, regime change possible, reduce size
• Mid-Range (50-60%): Price trapped in channel center, avoid new positions
• Ranging (60-70%): Low ADX, price oscillating within bounds, fade extremes only
• Compression (70-80%): Volatility squeeze, expansion imminent, wait for breakout
• Strong Chop (80-100%): Multiple chop factors aligned, avoid trading entirely
Signal Suppression:
When chop intensity exceeds the configurable threshold (default 80%), signals are suppressed entirely. The dashboard displays "⚠️ CHOP ZONE" with the current regime classification.
Chop Box Visualization:
When chop is detected, AMWT draws a semi-transparent box on the chart showing the chop zone. This visual reminder helps traders avoid entering positions during unfavorable conditions.
💧 LIQUIDITY ANCHORING SYSTEM
The Liquidity Concept:
Markets move from liquidity pool to liquidity pool. Stop losses cluster at predictable locations—below swing lows (buy stops become sell orders when triggered) and above swing highs (sell stops become buy orders when triggered). Institutions know where these clusters are and often engineer moves to trigger them before reversing.
AMWT identifies and tracks these liquidity events, using them as anchors for signal confidence.
Liquidity Event Types:
Type 1: Volume Spikes
Definition: Volume > SMA(volume, 20) × i_volThreshold (default 2.8x)
Interpretation: Sudden volume surge indicates institutional activity
• Near swing low + reversal: Likely accumulation
• Near swing high + reversal: Likely distribution
• With continuation: Institutional conviction in direction
Type 2: Stop Runs (Liquidity Sweeps)
Definition: Price briefly exceeds swing high/low then reverses within N bars
Detection:
• Price breaks above recent swing high (triggering buy stops)
• Then closes back below that high within 3 bars
• Signal: Bullish stop run complete, reversal likely
Or inverse for bearish:
• Price breaks below recent swing low (triggering sell stops)
• Then closes back above that low within 3 bars
• Signal: Bearish stop run complete, reversal likely
Type 3: Absorption Events
Definition: High volume with small candle body
Detection:
• Volume > 2x average
• Candle body < 30% of candle range
• Interpretation: Large orders being filled without moving price
• Implication: Accumulation (at lows) or distribution (at highs)
Type 4: BSL/SSL Pools (Buy-Side/Sell-Side Liquidity)
BSL (Buy-Side Liquidity):
• Cluster of swing highs within ATR proximity
• Stop losses from shorts sit above these highs
• Breaking BSL triggers short covering (fuel for rally)
SSL (Sell-Side Liquidity):
• Cluster of swing lows within ATR proximity
• Stop losses from longs sit below these lows
• Breaking SSL triggers long liquidation (fuel for decline)
Liquidity Pool Mapping:
AMWT continuously scans for and maps liquidity pools:
// Detect swing highs/lows using pivot function
swing_high = ta.pivothigh(high, 5, 5)
swing_low = ta.pivotlow(low, 5, 5)
// Track recent swing points
if not na(swing_high)
bsl_levels.push(swing_high)
if not na(swing_low)
ssl_levels.push(swing_low)
// Display on chart with labels
Confluence Scoring Integration:
When signals fire near identified liquidity events, confluence scoring increases:
• Signal near volume spike: +10% confidence
• Signal after liquidity sweep: +15% confidence
• Signal at BSL/SSL pool: +10% confidence
• Signal aligned with absorption zone: +10% confidence
Why Liquidity Anchoring Matters:
Signals "in a vacuum" have lower probability than signals anchored to institutional activity. A long signal after a liquidity sweep below swing lows has trapped shorts providing fuel. A long signal in the middle of nowhere has no such catalyst.
📊 SIGNAL GRADING SYSTEM
The Quality Problem:
Not all signals are created equal. A signal with 6/6 factors aligned is fundamentally different from a signal with 3/6 factors aligned. Traditional indicators treat them the same. AMWT grades every signal based on confluence.
Confluence Components (100 points total):
1. Bandit Consensus Strength (25 points)
consensus_str = weighted average of agent confidences
score = consensus_str × 25
Example:
Trend Agent: +1 signal, 0.80 confidence, 0.35 weight
Reversion Agent: 0 signal, 0.50 confidence, 0.25 weight
Structure Agent: +1 signal, 0.75 confidence, 0.40 weight
Weighted consensus = (0.80×0.35 + 0×0.25 + 0.75×0.40) / (0.35 + 0.40) = 0.77
Score = 0.77 × 25 = 19.25 points
2. HMM State Confidence (15 points)
score = hmm_confidence × 15
Example:
HMM reports 82% probability of IMPULSE_UP
Score = 0.82 × 15 = 12.3 points
3. Session Quality (15 points)
Session quality varies by time:
• London/NY Overlap: 1.0 (15 points)
• New York Session: 0.95 (14.25 points)
• London Session: 0.70 (10.5 points)
• Asian Session: 0.40 (6 points)
• Off-Hours: 0.30 (4.5 points)
• Weekend: 0.10 (1.5 points)
4. Energy/Participation (10 points)
energy = (realized_vol / avg_vol) × 0.4 + (range / ATR) × 0.35 + (volume / avg_volume) × 0.25
score = min(energy, 1.0) × 10
5. Volume Confirmation (10 points)
if volume > SMA(volume, 20) × 1.5:
score = 10
else if volume > SMA(volume, 20):
score = 5
else:
score = 0
6. Structure Alignment (10 points)
For long signals:
• Bullish structure (HH + HL): 10 points
• Higher low only: 6 points
• Neutral structure: 3 points
• Bearish structure: 0 points
Inverse for short signals
7. Trend Alignment (10 points)
For long signals:
• Price > EMA21 > EMA50: 10 points
• Price > EMA21: 6 points
• Neutral: 3 points
• Against trend: 0 points
8. Entry Trigger Quality (5 points)
• Strong trigger (multiple confirmations): 5 points
• Moderate trigger (single confirmation): 3 points
• Weak trigger (marginal): 1 point
Grade Scale:
Total Score → Grade
85-100 → A+ (Exceptional—all factors aligned)
70-84 → A (Strong—high probability)
55-69 → B (Acceptable—proceed with caution)
Below 55 → C (Marginal—filtered by default)
Grade-Based Signal Brightness:
Signal arrows on the chart have transparency based on grade:
• A+: Full brightness (alpha = 0)
• A: Slight fade (alpha = 15)
• B: Moderate fade (alpha = 35)
• C: Significant fade (alpha = 55)
This visual hierarchy helps traders instantly identify signal quality.
Minimum Grade Filter:
Configurable filter (default: C) sets the minimum grade for signal display:
• Set to "A" for only highest-quality signals
• Set to "B" for moderate selectivity
• Set to "C" for all signals (maximum quantity)
🕐 SESSION INTELLIGENCE
Why Sessions Matter:
Markets behave differently at different times. The London open is fundamentally different from the Asian lunch hour. AMWT incorporates session-aware logic to optimize signal quality.
Session Definitions:
Asian Session (18:00-03:00 ET)
• Characteristics: Lower volatility, range-bound tendency, fewer institutional participants
• Quality Score: 0.40 (40% of peak quality)
• Strategy Implications: Fade extremes, expect ranges, smaller position sizes
• Best For: Mean-reversion setups, accumulation/distribution identification
London Session (03:00-12:00 ET)
• Characteristics: European institutional activity, volatility pickup, trend initiation
• Quality Score: 0.70 (70% of peak quality)
• Strategy Implications: Watch for trend development, breakouts more reliable
• Best For: Initial trend identification, structure breaks
New York Session (08:00-17:00 ET)
• Characteristics: Highest liquidity, US institutional activity, major moves
• Quality Score: 0.95 (95% of peak quality)
• Strategy Implications: Best environment for directional trades
• Best For: Trend continuation, momentum plays
London/NY Overlap (08:00-12:00 ET)
• Characteristics: Peak liquidity, both European and US participants active
• Quality Score: 1.0 (100%—maximum quality)
• Strategy Implications: Highest probability for successful breakouts and trends
• Best For: All signal types—this is prime time
Off-Hours
• Characteristics: Thin liquidity, erratic price action, gaps possible
• Quality Score: 0.30 (30% of peak quality)
• Strategy Implications: Avoid new positions, wider stops if holding
• Best For: Waiting
Smart Weekend Detection:
AMWT properly handles the Sunday evening futures open:
// Traditional (broken):
isWeekend = dayofweek == saturday OR dayofweek == sunday
// AMWT (correct):
anySessionActive = not na(asianTime) or not na(londonTime) or not na(nyTime)
isWeekend = calendarWeekend AND NOT anySessionActive
This ensures Sunday 6pm ET (when futures open) correctly shows "Asian Session" rather than "Weekend."
Session Transition Boosts:
Certain session transitions create trading opportunities:
• Asian → London transition: +15% confidence boost (volatility expansion likely)
• London → Overlap transition: +20% confidence boost (peak liquidity approaching)
• Overlap → NY-only transition: -10% confidence adjustment (liquidity declining)
• Any → Off-Hours transition: Signal suppression recommended
📈 TRADE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The Signal Spam Problem:
Many indicators generate signal after signal, creating confusion and overtrading. AMWT implements a complete trade lifecycle management system that prevents signal spam and tracks performance.
Trade Lock Mechanism:
Once a signal fires, the system enters a "trade lock" state:
Trade Lock Duration: Configurable (default 30 bars)
Early Exit Conditions:
• TP3 hit (full target reached)
• Stop Loss hit (trade failed)
• Lock expiration (time-based exit)
During lock:
• No new signals of same type displayed
• Opposite signals can override (reversal)
• Trade status tracked in dashboard
Target Levels:
Each signal generates three profit targets based on ATR:
TP1 (Conservative Target)
• Default: 1.0 × ATR
• Purpose: Quick partial profit, reduce risk
• Action: Take 30-40% off position, move stop to breakeven
TP2 (Standard Target)
• Default: 2.5 × ATR
• Purpose: Main profit target
• Action: Take 40-50% off position, trail stop
TP3 (Extended Target)
• Default: 5.0 × ATR
• Purpose: Runner target for trend days
• Action: Close remaining position or continue trailing
Stop Loss:
• Default: 1.9 × ATR from entry
• Purpose: Define maximum risk
• Placement: Below recent swing low (longs) or above recent swing high (shorts)
Invalidation Level:
Beyond stop loss, AMWT calculates an "invalidation" level where the wave hypothesis dies:
invalidation = entry - (ATR × INVALIDATION_MULT × 1.5)
If price reaches invalidation, the current market interpretation is wrong—not just the trade.
Visual Trade Management:
During active trades, AMWT displays:
• Entry arrow with grade label (▲A+, ▼B, etc.)
• TP1, TP2, TP3 horizontal lines in green
• Stop Loss line in red
• Invalidation line in orange (dashed)
• Progress indicator in dashboard
Persistent Execution Markers:
When targets or stops are hit, permanent markers appear:
• TP hit: Green dot with "TP1"/"TP2"/"TP3" label
• SL hit: Red dot with "SL" label
These persist on the chart for review and statistics.
💰 PERFORMANCE TRACKING & STATISTICS
Tracked Metrics:
• Total Trades: Count of all signals that entered trade lock
• Winning Trades: Signals where at least TP1 was reached before SL
• Losing Trades: Signals where SL was hit before any TP
• Win Rate: Winning / Total × 100%
• Total R Profit: Sum of R-multiples from winning trades
• Total R Loss: Sum of R-multiples from losing trades
• Net R: Total R Profit - Total R Loss
Currency Conversion System:
AMWT can display P&L in multiple formats:
R-Multiple (Default)
• Shows risk-normalized returns
• "Net P&L: +4.2R | 78 trades" means 4.2 times initial risk gained over 78 trades
• Best for comparing across different position sizes
Currency Conversion (USD/EUR/GBP/JPY/INR)
• Converts R-multiples to currency based on:
- Dollar Risk Per Trade (user input)
- Tick Value (user input)
- Selected currency
Example Configuration:
Dollar Risk Per Trade: $100
Display Currency: USD
If Net R = +4.2R
Display: Net P&L: +$420.00 | 78 trades
Ticks
• For futures traders who think in ticks
• Converts based on tick value input
Statistics Reset:
Two reset methods:
1. Toggle Reset
• Turn "Reset Statistics" toggle ON then OFF
• Clears all statistics immediately
2. Date-Based Reset
• Set "Reset After Date" (YYYY-MM-DD format)

🎓 PROFESSIONAL USAGE PROTOCOL
Phase 1: Learning the System (Week 1)
Goal: Understand AMWT concepts and dashboard interpretation
Setup:
• Signal Mode: Balanced
• Display: All features enabled
• Grade Filter: C (see all signals)
Actions:
• Paper trade ONLY—no real money
• Observe HMM state transitions throughout the day
• Note when agents agree vs disagree
• Watch chop detection engage and disengage
• Track which grades produce winners vs losers
Key Learning Questions:
• How often do A+ signals win vs B signals? (Should see clear difference)
• Which agent tends to be right in current market? (Check dashboard)
• When does chop detection save you from bad trades?
• How do signals near liquidity events perform vs signals in vacuum?
Phase 2: Parameter Optimization (Week 2)
Goal: Tune system to your instrument and timeframe
Signal Mode Testing:
• Run 5 days on Aggressive mode (more signals)
• Run 5 days on Conservative mode (fewer signals)
• Compare: Which produces better risk-adjusted returns?
Grade Filter Testing:
• Track A+ only for 20 signals
• Track A and above for 20 signals
• Track B and above for 20 signals
• Compare win rates and expectancy
Chop Threshold Testing:
• Default (80%): Standard filtering
• Try 70%: More aggressive filtering
• Try 90%: Less filtering
• Which produces best results for your instrument?
Phase 3: Strategy Development (Weeks 3-4)
Goal: Develop personal trading rules based on system signals
Position Sizing by Grade:
• A+ grade: 100% position size
• A grade: 75% position size
• B grade: 50% position size
• C grade: 25% position size (or skip)
Session-Based Rules:

• Net R positive
• No revenge trading incidents
• Emotional control maintained
💡 DEVELOPMENT INSIGHTS
Why HMM Over Simple Indicators:
Early versions used standard indicators (RSI >70 = overbought, etc.). Win rates hovered at 52-55%. The problem: indicators don't capture state. RSI can stay "overbought" for weeks in a strong trend.
The insight: markets exist in states, and state persistence matters more than indicator levels. Implementing HMM with state transition probabilities increased signal quality significantly. The system now knows not just "RSI is high" but "we're in IMPULSE_UP state with 70% probability of staying in IMPULSE_UP."
The Multi-Agent Evolution:
Original version used a single analytical methodology—trend-following. Performance was inconsistent: great in trends, destroyed in ranges. Added mean-reversion agent: now it was inconsistent the other way.
The breakthrough: use multiple agents and let the system learn which works . Thompson Sampling wasn't the first attempt—tried simple averaging, voting, even hard-coded regime switching. Thompson Sampling won because it's mathematically optimal and automatically adapts without manual regime detection.
Chop Detection Revelation:
Chop detection was added almost as an afterthought. "Let's filter out obviously bad conditions." Testing revealed it was the most impactful single feature. Filtering chop zones reduced losing trades by 35% while only reducing total signals by 20%. The insight: avoiding bad trades matters more than finding good ones.
Liquidity Anchoring Discovery:
Watched hundreds of trades. Noticed pattern: signals that fired after liquidity events (stop runs, volume spikes) had significantly higher win rates than signals in quiet markets. Implemented liquidity detection and anchoring. Win rate on liquidity-anchored signals: 68% vs 52% on non-anchored signals.
The Grade System Impact:
Early system had binary signals (fire or don't fire). Adding grading transformed it. Traders could finally match position size to signal quality. A+ signals deserved full size; C signals deserved caution. Just implementing grade-based sizing improved portfolio Sharpe ratio by 0.3.
🚨 LIMITATIONS & CRITICAL ASSUMPTIONS
What AMWT Is NOT:
• NOT a Holy Grail : No system wins every trade. AMWT improves probability, not certainty.
• NOT Fully Automated : AMWT provides signals and analysis; execution requires human judgment.
• NOT News-Proof : Exogenous shocks (FOMC surprises, geopolitical events) invalidate all technical analysis.
• NOT for Scalping : HMM state estimation needs time to develop. Sub-minute timeframes are not appropriate.
Core Assumptions:
1. Markets Have States : Assumes markets transition between identifiable regimes. Violation: Random walk markets with no regime structure.
2. States Are Inferable : Assumes observable indicators reveal hidden states. Violation: Market manipulation creating false signals.
3. History Informs Future : Assumes past agent performance predicts future performance. Violation: Regime changes that invalidate historical patterns.
4. Liquidity Events Matter : Assumes institutional activity creates predictable patterns. Violation: Markets with no institutional participation.
Performs Best On:
• Liquid Futures : ES, NQ, MNQ, MES, CL, GC
• Major Forex Pairs : EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY
• Large-Cap Stocks : AAPL, MSFT, TSLA, NVDA (>$5B market cap)
• Liquid Crypto : BTC, ETH on major exchanges
Performs Poorly On:
• Illiquid Instruments : Low volume stocks, exotic pairs
• Very Low Timeframes : Sub-5-minute charts (noise overwhelms signal)
• Binary Event Days : Earnings, FDA approvals, court rulings
• Manipulated Markets : Penny stocks, low-cap altcoins
Known Weaknesses:
• Warmup Period : HMM needs ~50 bars to initialize properly. Early signals may be unreliable.
• Regime Change Lag : Thompson Sampling adapts over time, not instantly. Sudden regime changes may cause short-term underperformance.
• Complexity : More parameters than simple indicators. Requires understanding to use effectively.
⚠️ RISK DISCLOSURE
Trading futures, stocks, options, forex, and cryptocurrencies involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Adaptive Market Wave Theory, while based on rigorous mathematical frameworks including Hidden Markov Models and multi-armed bandit algorithms, does not guarantee profits and can result in significant losses.
AMWT's methodologies—HMM state estimation, Thompson Sampling agent selection, and confluence-based grading—have theoretical foundations but past performance is not indicative of future results.
Hidden Markov Model assumptions may not hold during:
• Major news events disrupting normal market behavior
• Flash crashes or circuit breaker events
• Low liquidity periods with erratic price action
• Algorithmic manipulation or spoofing
Multi-agent consensus assumes independent analytical perspectives provide edge. Market conditions change. Edges that existed historically can diminish or disappear.
Users must independently validate system performance on their specific instruments, timeframes, and broker execution environment. Paper trade extensively before risking capital. Start with micro position sizing.
Never risk more than you can afford to lose completely. Use proper position sizing. Implement stop losses without exception.
By using this indicator, you acknowledge these risks and accept full responsibility for all trading decisions and outcomes.

Market Electromagnetic Field [The_lurker]Market Electromagnetic Field
An innovative analytical indicator that presents a completely new model for understanding market dynamics, inspired by the laws of electromagnetic physics — but it's not a rhetorical metaphor, rather a complete mathematical system.
Unlike traditional indicators that focus on price or momentum, this indicator portrays the market as a closed physical system, where:
⚡ Candles = Electric charges (positive at bullish close, negative at bearish)
⚡ Buyers and Sellers = Two opposing poles where pressure accumulates
⚡ Market tension = Voltage difference between the poles
⚡ Price breakout = Electrical discharge after sufficient energy accumulation
█ Core Concept
Markets don't move randomly, but follow a clear physical cycle:
Accumulation → Tension → Discharge → Stabilization → New Accumulation
When charges accumulate (through strong candles with high volume) and exceed a certain "electrical capacitance" threshold, the indicator issues a "⚡ DISCHARGE IMMINENT" alert — meaning a price explosion is imminent, giving the trader an opportunity to enter before the move begins.
█ Competitive Advantage
- Predictive forecasting (not confirmatory after the event)
- Smart multi-layer filtering reduces false signals
- Animated 3D visual representation makes reading price conditions instant and intuitive — without need for number analysis
█ Theoretical Physical Foundation
The indicator doesn't use physical terms for decoration, but applies mathematical laws with precise market adjustments:
⚡ Coulomb's Law
Physics: F = k × (q₁ × q₂) / r²
Market: Field Intensity = 4 × norm_positive × norm_negative
Peaks at equilibrium (0.5 × 0.5 × 4 = 1.0), and decreases at dominance — because conflict increases at parity.
⚡ Ohm's Law
Physics: V = I × R
Market: Voltage = norm_positive − norm_negative
Measures balance of power:
- +1 = Absolute buying dominance
- −1 = Absolute selling dominance
- 0 = Balance
⚡ Capacitance
Physics: C = Q / V
Market: Capacitance = |Voltage| × Field Intensity
Represents stored energy ready for discharge — increases with bias combined with high interaction.
⚡ Electrical Discharge
Physics: Occurs when exceeding insulation threshold
Market: Discharge Probability = min(Capacitance / Discharge Threshold, 1.0)
When ≥ 0.9: "⚡ DISCHARGE IMMINENT"
📌 Key Note:
Maximum capacitance doesn't occur at absolute dominance (where field intensity = 0), nor at perfect balance (where voltage = 0), but at moderate bias (±30–50%) with high interaction (field intensity > 25%) — i.e., in moments of "pressure before breakout".
█ Detailed Calculation Mechanism
⚡ Phase 1: Candle Polarity
polarity = (close − open) / (high − low)
- +1.0: Complete bullish candle (Bullish Marubozu)
- −1.0: Complete bearish candle (Bearish Marubozu)
- 0.0: Doji (no decision)
- Intermediate values: Represent the ratio of candle body to its range — reducing the effect of long-shadow candles
⚡ Phase 2: Volume Weight
vol_weight = volume / SMA(volume, lookback)
A candle with 150% of average volume = 1.5x stronger charge
⚡ Phase 3: Adaptive Factor
adaptive_factor = ATR(lookback) / SMA(ATR, lookback × 2)
- In volatile markets: Increases sensitivity
- In quiet markets: Reduces noise
- Always recommended to keep it enabled
⚡ Phase 4–6: Charge Accumulation and Normalization
Charges are summed over lookback candles, then ratios are normalized:
norm_positive = positive_charge / total_charge
norm_negative = negative_charge / total_charge
So that: norm_positive + norm_negative = 1 — for easier comparison
⚡ Phase 7: Field Calculations
voltage = norm_positive − norm_negative
field_intensity = 4 × norm_positive × norm_negative × field_sensitivity
capacitance = |voltage| × field_intensity
discharge_prob = min(capacitance / discharge_threshold, 1.0)

█ Visual Representation: A Visual Language for Diagnosing Price Conditions
✨ Design Philosophy
The representation isn't "decoration", but a complete cognitive model — each element carries information, and element interaction tells a complete story.
The brain perceives changes in size, color, and movement 60,000 times faster than reading numbers — so you can "sense" the change before your eye finishes scanning.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🟢 Positive Pole (Green Sphere — Left)
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
What does it represent?
Active buying pressure accumulation — not just an uptrend, but real demand force supported by volume and volatility.
● Dynamic Size
Size = pole_size × (0.7 + norm_positive × 0.6)
- 70% of base size = No significant charge
- 130% of base size = Complete dominance
- The larger the sphere: Greater buyer dominance, higher probability of bullish continuation
Size Interpretation:
- Large sphere (>55%): Strong buying pressure — Buyers dominate
- Medium sphere (45–55%): Relative balance with buying bias
- Small sphere (<45%): Weak buying pressure — Sellers dominate
● Lighting and Transparency
- 20% transparency (when Bias = +1): Pole currently active — Bullish direction
- 50% transparency (when Bias ≠ +1): Pole inactive — Not the prevailing direction
Lighting = Current activity, while Size = Historical accumulation
● Pulsing Inner Glow
A smaller sphere pulses automatically when Bias = +1:
inner_pulse = 0.4 + 0.1 × sin(anim_time × 3)
Symbolizes continuity of buy order flow — not static dominance.
● Orbital Rings
Two rings rotating at different speeds and directions:
- Inner: 1.3× sphere size — Direct influence range
- Outer: 1.6× sphere size — Extended influence range
Represent "influence zone" of buyers:
- Continuous rotation = Stability and momentum
- Slowdown = Momentum exhaustion
● Percentage
Displayed below sphere: norm_positive × 100
- >55% = Clear dominance
- 45–55% = Balance
- <45% = Weakness
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🔴 Negative Pole (Red Sphere — Right)
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
What does it represent?
Active selling pressure accumulation — whether cumulative selling (smart distribution) or panic selling (position liquidation).
● Visual Dynamics
Same size, lighting, and inner glow mechanism — but in red.
Key Difference:
- Rotation is reversed (counter-clockwise)
- Visually distinguishes "buy flow" from "sell flow"
- Allows reading direction at a glance — even for colorblind users
📌 Pole Reading Summary:
🟢 Large + Bright green sphere = Active buying force
🔴 Large + Bright red sphere = Active selling force
🟢🔴 Both large but dim = Energy accumulation (before discharge)
⚪ Both small = Stagnation / Low liquidity
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🔵 Field Lines (Curved Blue Lines)
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
What do they represent?
Energy flow paths between poles — the arena where price battle is fought.
● Number of Lines
4–16 lines (Default: 8)
More lines: Greater sense of "interaction density"
● Arc Height
arc_h = (i − half_lines) × 15 × field_intensity × 2
- High field intensity = Highly elevated lines (like waves)
- Low intensity = Nearly straight lines
● Oscillating Transparency
transp = 30 + phase × 40
where phase = sin(anim_time × 2 + i × 0.5) × 0.5 + 0.5
Creates illusion of "flowing current" — not static lines
● Asymmetric Curvature
- Upper lines curve upward
- Lower lines curve downward
- Adds 3D depth and shows "pressure" direction
⚡ Pro Tip:
When you see lines suddenly "contract" (straighten), while both spheres are large — this is an early indicator of impending discharge, because the interaction is losing its flexibility.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
⚪ Moving Particles
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
What do they represent?
Real liquidity flow in the market — who's driving price right now.
● Number and Movement
- 6 particles covering most field lines
- Move sinusoidally along the arc:
t = (sin(phase_val) + 1) / 2
- High speed = High trading activity
- Clustering at a pole = That side's control
● Color Gradient
From green (at positive pole) to red (at negative)
Shows "energy transformation":
- Green particle = Pure buying energy
- Orange particle = Conflict zone
- Red particle = Pure selling energy
📌 How to Read Them?
- Moving left to right (🟢 → 🔴): Buy flow → Bullish push
- Moving right to left (🔴 → 🟢): Sell flow → Bearish push
- Clustered in middle: Balanced conflict — Wait for breakout
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🟠 Discharge Zone (Orange Glow — Center)
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
What does it represent?
Point of stored energy accumulation not yet discharged — heart of the early warning system.
● Glow Stages
Initial Warning (discharge_prob > 0.3):
- Dim orange circle (70% transparency)
- Meaning: Watch, don't enter yet
High Tension (discharge_prob ≥ 0.7):
- Stronger glow + "⚠️ HIGH TENSION" text
- Meaning: Prepare — Set pending orders
Imminent Discharge (discharge_prob ≥ 0.9):
- Bright glow + "⚡ DISCHARGE IMMINENT" text
- Meaning: Enter with direction (after candle confirmation)
● Layered Glow Effect (Glow Layering)
3 concentric circles with increasing transparency:
- Inner: 20%
- Middle: 35%
- Outer: 50%
Result: Realistic aura resembling actual electrical discharge.
📌 Why in the Center?
Because discharge always starts from the relative balance zone — where opposing pressures meet.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📊 Voltage Meter (Bottom of Scene)
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
What does it represent?
Simplified numeric indicator of voltage difference — for those who prefer numerical reading.
● Components
- Gray bar: Full range (−100% to +100%)
- Green fill: Positive voltage (extends right)
- Red fill: Negative voltage (extends left)
- Lightning symbol (⚡): Above center — reminder it's an "electrical gauge"
- Text value: Like "+23.4%" — in direction color
● Voltage Reading Interpretation
+50% to +100%:
Overwhelming buying dominance — Beware of saturation, may precede correction
+20% to +50%:
Strong buying dominance — Suitable for buying with trend
+5% to +20%:
Slight bullish bias — Wait for additional confirmation
−5% to +5%:
Balance/Neutral — Avoid entry or wait for breakout
−5% to −20%:
Slight bearish bias — Wait for confirmation
−20% to −50%:
Strong selling dominance — Suitable for selling with trend
−50% to −100%:
Overwhelming selling dominance — Beware of saturation, may precede bounce
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📈 Field Strength Indicator (Top of Scene)
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
What it displays: "Field: XX.X%"
Meaning: Strength of conflict between buyers and sellers.
● Reading Interpretation
0–5%:
- Appearance: Nearly straight lines, transparent
- Meaning: Complete control by one side
- Strategy: Trend Following
5–15%:
- Appearance: Slight curvature
- Meaning: Clear direction with light resistance
- Strategy: Enter with trend
15–25%:
- Appearance: Medium curvature, clear lines
- Meaning: Balanced conflict
- Strategy: Range trading or waiting
25–35%:
- Appearance: High curvature, clear density
- Meaning: Strong conflict, high uncertainty
- Strategy: Volatility trading or prepare for discharge
35%+:
- Appearance: Very high lines, strong glow
- Meaning: Peak tension
- Strategy: Best discharge opportunities
📌 Golden Relationship:
Highest discharge probability when:
Field Strength (25–35%) + Voltage (±30–50%) + High Volume
← This is the "red zone" to monitor carefully.
█ Comprehensive Visual Reading
To read market condition at a glance, follow this sequence:
Step 1: Which sphere is larger?
- 🟢 Green larger ← Dominant buying pressure
- 🔴 Red larger ← Dominant selling pressure

Step 2: Which sphere is bright?
- 🟢 Green bright ← Current bullish direction
- 🔴 Red bright ← Current bearish direction
- Both dim ← Neutral/No clear direction
Step 3: Is there orange glow?
- None ← Discharge probability <30%
- 🟠 Dim glow ← Discharge probability 30–70%
- 🟠 Strong glow with text ← Discharge probability >70%
Step 4: What's the voltage meter reading?
- Strong positive ← Confirms buying dominance
- Strong negative ← Confirms selling dominance
- Near zero ← No clear direction

المجال الكهرومغناطيسي للسوق - Market Electromagnetic Field
مؤشر تحليلي مبتكر يقدّم نموذجًا جديدًا كليًّا لفهم ديناميكيات السوق، مستوحى من قوانين الفيزياء الكهرومغناطيسية — لكنه ليس استعارة بلاغية، بل نظام رياضي متكامل.
على عكس المؤشرات التقليدية التي تُركّز على السعر أو الزخم، يُصوّر هذا المؤشر السوق كـنظام فيزيائي مغلق، حيث:
⚡ الشموع = شحنات كهربائية (موجبة عند الإغلاق الصاعد، سالبة عند الهابط)
⚡ المشتريون والبائعون = قطبان متعاكسان يتراكم فيهما الضغط
⚡ التوتر السوقي = فرق جهد بين القطبين
⚡ الاختراق السعري = تفريغ كهربائي بعد تراكم طاقة كافية
█ الفكرة الجوهرية
الأسواق لا تتحرك عشوائيًّا، بل تخضع لدورة فيزيائية واضحة:
تراكم → توتر → تفريغ → استقرار → تراكم جديد
عندما تتراكم الشحنات (من خلال شموع قوية بحجم مرتفع) وتتجاوز "السعة الكهربائية" عتبة معيّنة، يُصدر المؤشر تنبيه "⚡ DISCHARGE IMMINENT" — أي أن انفجارًا سعريًّا وشيكًا، مما يمنح المتداول فرصة الدخول قبل بدء الحركة.
█ الميزة التنافسية
- تنبؤ استباقي (ليس تأكيديًّا بعد الحدث)
- فلترة ذكية متعددة الطبقات تقلل الإشارات الكاذبة
- تمثيل بصري ثلاثي الأبعاد متحرك يجعل قراءة الحالة السعرية فورية وبديهية — دون حاجة لتحليل أرقام
█ الأساس النظري الفيزيائي
المؤشر لا يستخدم مصطلحات فيزيائية للزينة، بل يُطبّق القوانين الرياضية مع تعديلات سوقيّة دقيقة:
⚡ قانون كولوم (Coulomb's Law)
الفيزياء: F = k × (q₁ × q₂) / r²
السوق: شدة الحقل = 4 × norm_positive × norm_negative
تصل لذروتها عند التوازن (0.5 × 0.5 × 4 = 1.0)، وتنخفض عند الهيمنة — لأن الصراع يزداد عند التكافؤ.
⚡ قانون أوم (Ohm's Law)
الفيزياء: V = I × R
السوق: الجهد = norm_positive − norm_negative
يقيس ميزان القوى:
- +1 = هيمنة شرائية مطلقة
- −1 = هيمنة بيعية مطلقة
- 0 = توازن
⚡ السعة الكهربائية (Capacitance)
الفيزياء: C = Q / V
السوق: السعة = |الجهد| × شدة الحقل
تمثّل الطاقة المخزّنة القابلة للتفريغ — تزداد عند وجود تحيّز مع تفاعل عالي.
⚡ التفريغ الكهربائي (Discharge)
الفيزياء: يحدث عند تجاوز عتبة العزل
السوق: احتمال التفريغ = min(السعة / عتبة التفريغ, 1.0)
عندما ≥ 0.9: "⚡ DISCHARGE IMMINENT"
📌 ملاحظة جوهرية:
أقصى سعة لا تحدث عند الهيمنة المطلقة (حيث شدة الحقل = 0)، ولا عند التوازن التام (حيث الجهد = 0)، بل عند انحياز متوسط (±30–50%) مع تفاعل عالي (شدة حقل > 25%) — أي في لحظات "الضغط قبل الاختراق".
█ آلية الحساب التفصيلية
⚡ المرحلة 1: قطبية الشمعة
polarity = (close − open) / (high − low)
- +1.0: شمعة صاعدة كاملة (ماروبوزو صاعد)
- −1.0: شمعة هابطة كاملة (ماروبوزو هابط)
- 0.0: دوجي (لا قرار)
- القيم الوسيطة: تمثّل نسبة جسم الشمعة إلى مداها — مما يقلّل تأثير الشموع ذات الظلال الطويلة
⚡ المرحلة 2: وزن الحجم
vol_weight = volume / SMA(volume, lookback)
شمعة بحجم 150% من المتوسط = شحنة أقوى بـ 1.5 مرة
⚡ المرحلة 3: معامل التكيف (Adaptive Factor)
adaptive_factor = ATR(lookback) / SMA(ATR, lookback × 2)
- في الأسواق المتقلبة: يزيد الحساسية
- في الأسواق الهادئة: يقلل الضوضاء
- يوصى دائمًا بتركه مفعّلًا
⚡ المرحلة 4–6: تراكم وتوحيد الشحنات
تُجمّع الشحنات على lookback شمعة، ثم تُوحّد النسب:
norm_positive = positive_charge / total_charge
norm_negative = negative_charge / total_charge
بحيث: norm_positive + norm_negative = 1 — لتسهيل المقارنة
⚡ المرحلة 7: حسابات الحقل
voltage = norm_positive − norm_negative
field_intensity = 4 × norm_positive × norm_negative × field_sensitivity
capacitance = |voltage| × field_intensity
discharge_prob = min(capacitance / discharge_threshold, 1.0)

█ التمثيل البصري: لغة بصرية لتشخيص الحالة السعرية
✨ الفلسفة التصميمية
التمثيل ليس "زينة"، بل نموذج معرفي متكامل — كل عنصر يحمل معلومة، وتفاعل العناصر يروي قصة كاملة.
العقل يدرك التغيير في الحجم، اللون، والحركة أسرع بـ 60,000 مرة من قراءة الأرقام — لذا يمكنك "الإحساس" بالتغير قبل أن تُنهي العين المسح.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🟢 القطب الموجب (الكرة الخضراء — يسار)
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
ماذا يمثّل؟
تراكم ضغط الشراء النشط — ليس مجرد اتجاه صاعد، بل قوة طلب حقيقية مدعومة بحجم وتقلّب.
● الحجم المتغير
حجم = pole_size × (0.7 + norm_positive × 0.6)
- 70% من الحجم الأساسي = لا شحنة تُذكر
- 130% من الحجم الأساسي = هيمنة تامة
- كلما كبرت الكرة: زاد تفوّق المشترين، وارتفع احتمال الاستمرار الصعودي
تفسير الحجم:
- كرة كبيرة (>55%): ضغط شراء قوي — المشترون يسيطرون
- كرة متوسطة (45–55%): توازن نسبي مع ميل للشراء
- كرة صغيرة (<45%): ضعف ضغط الشراء — البائعون يسيطرون
● الإضاءة والشفافية
- شفافية 20% (عند Bias = +1): القطب نشط حالياً — الاتجاه صعودي
- شفافية 50% (عند Bias ≠ +1): القطب غير نشط — ليس الاتجاه السائد
الإضاءة = النشاط الحالي، بينما الحجم = التراكم التاريخي
● التوهج الداخلي النابض
كرة أصغر تنبض تلقائيًّا عند Bias = +1:
inner_pulse = 0.4 + 0.1 × sin(anim_time × 3)
يرمز إلى استمرارية تدفق أوامر الشراء — وليس هيمنة جامدة.
● الحلقات المدارية
حلقتان تدوران بسرعات واتجاهات مختلفة:
- الداخلية: 1.3× حجم الكرة — نطاق التأثير المباشر
- الخارجية: 1.6× حجم الكرة — نطاق التأثير الممتد
تمثّل "نطاق تأثير" المشترين:
- الدوران المستمر = استقرار وزخم
- التباطؤ = نفاد الزخم
● النسبة المئوية
تظهر تحت الكرة: norm_positive × 100
- >55% = هيمنة واضحة
- 45–55% = توازن
- <45% = ضعف
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🔴 القطب السالب (الكرة الحمراء — يمين)
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
ماذا يمثّل؟
تراكم ضغط البيع النشط — سواء كان بيعًا تراكميًّا (التوزيع الذكي) أو بيعًا هستيريًّا (تصفية مراكز).
● الديناميكيات البصرية
نفس آلية الحجم والإضاءة والتوهج الداخلي — لكن باللون الأحمر.
الفرق الجوهري:
- الدوران معكوس (عكس اتجاه عقارب الساعة)
- يُميّز بصريًّا بين "تدفق الشراء" و"تدفق البيع"
- يسمح بقراءة الاتجاه بنظرة واحدة — حتى للمصابين بعَمَى الألوان
📌 ملخص قراءة القطبين:
🟢 كرة خضراء كبيرة + مضيئة = قوة شرائية نشطة
🔴 كرة حمراء كبيرة + مضيئة = قوة بيعية نشطة
🟢🔴 كرتان كبيرتان لكن خافتتان = تراكم طاقة (قبل التفريغ)
⚪ كرتان صغيرتان = ركود / سيولة منخفضة
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🔵 خطوط الحقل (الخطوط الزرقاء المنحنية)
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
ماذا تمثّل؟
مسارات تدفق الطاقة بين القطبين — أي الساحة التي تُدار فيها المعركة السعرية.
● عدد الخطوط
4–16 خط (الافتراضي: 8)
كلما زاد العدد: زاد إحساس "كثافة التفاعل"
● ارتفاع القوس
arc_h = (i − half_lines) × 15 × field_intensity × 2
- شدة حقل عالية = خطوط شديدة الارتفاع (مثل موجة)
- شدة منخفضة = خطوط شبه مستقيمة
● الشفافية المتذبذبة
transp = 30 + phase × 40
حيث phase = sin(anim_time × 2 + i × 0.5) × 0.5 + 0.5
تخلق وهم "تيّار متدفّق" — وليس خطوطًا ثابتة
● الانحناء غير المتناظر
- الخطوط العلوية تنحني لأعلى
- الخطوط السفلية تنحني لأسفل
- يُضفي عمقًا ثلاثي الأبعاد ويُظهر اتجاه "الضغط"
⚡ تلميح احترافي:
عندما ترى الخطوط "تتقلّص" فجأة (تستقيم)، بينما الكرتان كبيرتان — فهذا مؤشر مبكر على قرب التفريغ، لأن التفاعل بدأ يفقد مرونته.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
⚪ الجزيئات المتحركة
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
ماذا تمثّل؟
تدفق السيولة الحقيقية في السوق — أي من يدفع السعر الآن.
● العدد والحركة
- 6 جزيئات تغطي معظم خطوط الحقل
- تتحرك جيبيًّا على طول القوس:
t = (sin(phase_val) + 1) / 2
- سرعة عالية = نشاط تداول عالي
- تجمّع عند قطب = سيطرة هذا الطرف
● تدرج اللون
من أخضر (عند القطب الموجب) إلى أحمر (عند السالب)
يُظهر "تحوّل الطاقة":
- جزيء أخضر = طاقة شرائية نقية
- جزيء برتقالي = منطقة صراع
- جزيء أحمر = طاقة بيعية نقية
📌 كيف تقرأها؟
- تحركت من اليسار لليمين (🟢 → 🔴): تدفق شرائي → دفع صعودي
- تحركت من اليمين لليسار (🔴 → 🟢): تدفق بيعي → دفع هبوطي
- تجمّعت في المنتصف: صراع متكافئ — انتظر اختراقًا
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
🟠 منطقة التفريغ (التوهج البرتقالي — المركز)
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
ماذا تمثّل؟
نقطة تراكم الطاقة المخزّنة التي لم تُفرّغ بعد — قلب نظام الإنذار المبكر.
● مراحل التوهج
إنذار أولي (discharge_prob > 0.3):
- دائرة برتقالية خافتة (شفافية 70%)
- المعنى: راقب، لا تدخل بعد
توتر عالي (discharge_prob ≥ 0.7):
- توهج أقوى + نص "⚠️ HIGH TENSION"
- المعنى: استعد — ضع أوامر معلقة
تفريغ وشيك (discharge_prob ≥ 0.9):
- توهج ساطع + نص "⚡ DISCHARGE IMMINENT"
- المعنى: ادخل مع الاتجاه (بعد تأكيد شمعة)
● تأثير التوهج الطبقي (Glow Layering)
3 دوائر متحدة المركز بشفافية متزايدة:
- داخلي: 20%
- وسط: 35%
- خارجي: 50%
النتيجة: هالة (Aura) واقعية تشبه التفريغ الكهربائي الحقيقي.
📌 لماذا في المركز؟
لأن التفريغ يبدأ دائمًا من منطقة التوازن النسبي — حيث يلتقي الضغطان المتعاكسان.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
📊 مقياس الجهد (أسفل المشهد)
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

● تفسير قراءات الجهد
+50% إلى +100%:
هيمنة شرائية ساحقة — احذر التشبع، قد يسبق تصحيح
+20% إلى +50%:
هيمنة شرائية قوية — مناسب للشراء مع الاتجاه
+5% إلى +20%:
ميل صعودي خفيف — انتظر تأكيدًا إضافيًّا

Liquidity Market Seeking SwiftEdgeThis indicator is designed to identify potential liquidity levels on the chart by detecting swing highs and lows, which are often areas where stop-loss orders or significant orders accumulate. It visualizes these levels with horizontal lines and labels on the right side of the chart, color-coded based on volume to help traders understand where the market might seek liquidity.
How It Works
Swing Highs and Lows: The indicator uses the ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions to identify significant swing points over a user-defined lookback period (Swing Length). These points are considered potential liquidity levels where stop-loss orders might be placed.
Volume Analysis: The indicator compares the volume at each swing point to the average volume over a specified period (Volume Average Length). Levels with above-average volume are colored red, indicating higher liquidity, while levels with below-average volume are colored green.
Liquidity Visualization: Horizontal dashed lines are drawn at each identified level, extending across the chart. Labels on the right side display the estimated liquidity amount (simulated based on volume and a multiplier, Volume Multiplier for Liquidity).
Sell Signal: A "SELL NOW" label appears when the price approaches a liquidity level after an uptrend (detected using a simple moving average crossover). This suggests a potential reversal as the market may target liquidity at that level.
Strategy Concept: Market Seeking Liquidity
The indicator is based on the concept that markets often move toward areas of high liquidity, such as clusters of stop-loss orders or significant order accumulations. These liquidity pools are typically found around swing highs and lows, where traders place their stop-losses or large orders. By identifying these levels and highlighting those with higher volume (red lines), the indicator aims to show where the market might move to "grab" this liquidity. For example, after an uptrend, the market may reverse at a swing high to take out stop-losses above that level, providing liquidity for larger players to enter or exit positions.
Settings
Swing Length: The number of bars to look back for detecting swing highs and lows. Default is 20.
Liquidity Threshold: The price threshold for merging nearby levels to avoid duplicates. Default is 0.001.
Volume Average Length: The period for calculating the average volume to compare against. Default is 20.
Volume Multiplier for Liquidity: A multiplier to scale the volume into a simulated liquidity amount (displayed as "K"). Default is 1000.
Usage Notes
Use this indicator on any timeframe, though it may be more effective on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H) where swing points are more significant.
Red lines indicate levels with higher volume, suggesting stronger liquidity pools that the market might target.
Green lines indicate levels with lower volume, which may be less significant.
The "SELL NOW" signal is a basic example of how to use liquidity levels for trading decisions. It appears when the price approaches a liquidity level after an uptrend, but it should be used in conjunction with other analysis.
Adjust the Volume Multiplier for Liquidity to scale the displayed liquidity amounts based on your instrument (e.g., forex pairs may need a higher multiplier than indices).
ADM Indicator [CHE] Comprehensive Description of the Three Market Phases for TradingView
Introduction
Financial markets often exhibit patterns that reflect the collective behavior of participants. Recognizing these patterns can provide traders with valuable insights into potential future price movements. The ADM Indicator is designed to help traders identify and capitalize on these patterns by detecting three primary market phases:
1. Accumulation Phase
2. Manipulation Phase
3. Distribution Phase
This indicator places labels on the chart to signify these phases, aiding traders in making informed decisions. Below is an in-depth explanation of each phase, including how the ADM Indicator detects them.
1. Accumulation Phase
Definition
The Accumulation Phase is a period where informed investors or institutions discreetly purchase assets before a potential price increase. During this phase, the price typically moves within a confined range between established highs and lows.
Characteristics
- Price Range Bound: The asset's price stays within the previous high and low after a timeframe change.
- Low Volatility: Minimal price movement indicates a balance between buyers and sellers.
- Steady Volume: Trading volume may remain relatively constant or show slight increases.
- Market Sentiment: General market interest is low, as the accumulation is not yet apparent to the broader market.
Detection with ADM Indicator
- Criteria: An accumulation is detected when the price remains within the previous high and low after a timeframe change.
- Indicator Action: At the end of the period, if accumulation has occurred, the indicator places a label "Accumulation" on the chart.
- Visual Cues: A yellow semi-transparent background highlights the accumulation phase, enhancing visual recognition.
Implications for Traders
- Entry Opportunity: Consider preparing for potential long positions before a possible upward move.
- Risk Management: Use tight stop-loss orders below the support level due to the defined trading range.
2. Manipulation Phase
Definition
The Manipulation Phase, also known as the Shakeout Phase, occurs when dominant market players intentionally move the price to trigger stop-loss orders and create panic among less-informed traders. This action generates liquidity and better entry prices for large positions.
Characteristics
- False Breakouts: The price moves above the previous high or below the previous low but quickly reverses.
- Increased Volatility: Sharp price movements occur without fundamental reasons.
- Stop-Loss Hunting: The price targets common stop-loss areas, triggering them before reversing.
- Emotional Trading: Retail traders may react impulsively, leading to poor trading decisions.
Detection with ADM Indicator
- Manipulation Up:
- Criteria: Detected when the price rises above the previous high and then falls back below it.
- Indicator Action: Places a label "Manipulation Up" on the chart at the point of detection.
- Manipulation Down:
- Criteria: Detected when the price falls below the previous low and then rises back above it.
- Indicator Action: Places a label "Manipulation Down" on the chart at the point of detection.
- Visual Cues:
- Manipulation Up: Blue background highlights the phase.
- Manipulation Down: Orange background highlights the phase.
Implications for Traders
- Caution Advised: Be wary of false signals and avoid overreacting to sudden price changes.
- Preparation for Next Phase: Use this phase to anticipate potential distribution and adjust strategies accordingly.
3. Distribution Phase
Definition
The Distribution Phase occurs when the institutions or informed investors who accumulated positions start selling to the general market at higher prices. This phase often follows a Manipulation Phase and may signal an impending trend reversal.
Characteristics
- Price Reversal: The price moves in the opposite direction of the prior manipulation.
- High Trading Volume: Increased selling activity as large players offload positions.
- Trend Weakening: The previous trend loses momentum, indicating a potential shift.
- Market Sentiment Shift: Optimism fades, and uncertainty or pessimism may emerge.
Detection with ADM Indicator
- Distribution Up:
- Criteria: Detected after a verified Manipulation Up when the price subsequently falls below the previous low.
- Indicator Action: Places a label "Distribution Up" on the chart.
- Distribution Down:
- Criteria: Detected after a verified Manipulation Down when the price subsequently rises above the previous high.
- Indicator Action: Places a label "Distribution Down" on the chart.
- Visual Cues:
- Distribution Up: Purple background highlights the phase.
- Distribution Down: Maroon background highlights the phase.
Implications for Traders
- Exit Signals: Consider closing long positions if in a Distribution Up phase.
- Short Selling Opportunities: Potential to enter short positions anticipating a downtrend.

Intrabar Volume Flow IntelligenceIntrabar Volume Flow Intelligence: A Comprehensive Analysis:
The Intrabar Volume Flow Intelligence indicator represents a sophisticated approach to understanding market dynamics through the lens of volume analysis at a granular, intrabar level. This Pine Script version 5 indicator transcends traditional volume analysis by dissecting price action within individual bars to reveal the true nature of buying and selling pressure that often remains hidden when examining only the external characteristics of completed candlesticks. At its core, this indicator operates on the principle that volume is the fuel that drives price movement, and by understanding where volume is being applied within each bar—whether at higher prices indicating buying pressure or at lower prices indicating selling pressure—traders can gain a significant edge in anticipating future price movements before they become obvious to the broader market.
The foundational innovation of this indicator lies in its use of lower timeframe data to analyze what happens inside each bar on your chart timeframe. While most traders see only the open, high, low, and close of a five-minute candle, for example, this indicator requests data from a one-minute timeframe by default to see all the individual one-minute candles that comprise that five-minute bar. This intrabar analysis allows the indicator to calculate a weighted intensity score based on where the price closed within each sub-bar's range. If the close is near the high, that volume is attributed more heavily to buying pressure; if near the low, to selling pressure. This methodology is far more nuanced than simple tick volume analysis or even traditional volume delta calculations because it accounts for the actual price behavior and distribution of volume throughout the formation of each bar, providing a three-dimensional view of market participation.
The intensity calculation itself demonstrates the coding sophistication embedded in this indicator. For each intrabar segment, the indicator calculates a base intensity using the formula of close minus low divided by the range between high and low. This gives a value between zero and one, where values approaching one indicate closes near the high and values approaching zero indicate closes near the low. However, the indicator doesn't stop there—it applies an open adjustment factor that considers the relationship between the close and open positions within the overall range, adding up to twenty percent additional weighting based on directional movement. This adjustment ensures that strongly directional intrabar movement receives appropriate emphasis in the final volume allocation. The adjusted intensity is then bounded between zero and one to prevent extreme outliers from distorting the analysis, demonstrating careful consideration of edge cases and data integrity.
The volume flow calculation multiplies this intensity by the actual volume transacted in each intrabar segment, creating buy volume and sell volume figures that represent not just quantity but quality of market participation. These figures are accumulated across all intrabar segments within the parent bar, and simultaneously, a volume-weighted average price is calculated for the entire bar using the typical price of each segment multiplied by its volume. This intrabar VWAP becomes a critical reference point for understanding whether the overall bar is trading above or below its fair value as determined by actual transaction levels. The deviation from this intrabar VWAP is then used as a weighting mechanism—when the close is significantly above the intrabar VWAP, buying volume receives additional weight; when below, selling volume is emphasized. This creates a feedback loop where volume that moves price away from equilibrium is recognized as more significant than volume that keeps price near balance.
The imbalance filter represents another layer of analytical sophistication that separates meaningful volume flows from normal market noise. The indicator calculates the absolute difference between buy and sell volume as a percentage of total volume, and this imbalance must exceed a user-defined threshold—defaulted to twenty-five percent but adjustable from five to eighty percent—before the volume flow is considered significant enough to register on the indicator. This filtering mechanism ensures that only bars with clear directional conviction contribute to the cumulative flow measurements, while bars with balanced buying and selling are essentially ignored. This is crucial because markets spend considerable time in equilibrium states where volume is simply facilitating position exchanges without directional intent. By filtering out these neutral periods, the indicator focuses trader attention exclusively on moments when one side of the market is demonstrating clear dominance.
The decay factor implementation showcases advanced state management in Pine Script coding. Rather than allowing imbalanced volume to simply disappear after one bar, the indicator maintains decayed values using variable state that persists across bars. When a new significant imbalance occurs, it replaces the decayed value; when no significant imbalance is present, the previous value is multiplied by the decay factor, which defaults to zero point eight-five. This means that a large volume imbalance continues to influence the indicator for several bars afterward, gradually diminishing in impact unless reinforced by new imbalances. This decay mechanism creates persistence in the flow measurements, acknowledging that large institutional volume accumulation or distribution campaigns don't execute in single bars but rather unfold across multiple bars. The cumulative flow calculation then sums these decayed values over a lookback period, creating a running total that represents sustained directional pressure rather than momentary spikes.
The dual moving average crossover system applied to these volume flows creates actionable trading signals from the underlying data. The indicator calculates both a fast exponential moving average and a slower simple moving average of the buy flow, sell flow, and net flow values. The use of EMA for the fast line provides responsiveness to recent changes while the SMA for the slow line provides a more stable baseline, and the divergence or convergence between these averages signals shifts in volume flow momentum. When the buy flow EMA crosses above its SMA while volume is elevated, this indicates that buying pressure is not only present but accelerating, which is the foundation for the strong buy signal generation. The same logic applies inversely for selling pressure, creating a symmetrical approach to detecting both upside and downside momentum shifts based on volume characteristics rather than price characteristics.
The volume threshold filtering ensures that signals only generate during periods of statistically significant market participation. The indicator calculates a simple moving average of total volume over a user-defined period, defaulted to twenty bars, and then requires that current volume exceed this average by a multiplier, defaulted to one point two times. This ensures that signals occur during periods when the market is actively engaged rather than during quiet periods when a few large orders can create misleading volume patterns. The indicator even distinguishes between high volume—exceeding the threshold—and very high volume—exceeding one point five times the threshold—with the latter triggering background color changes to alert traders to exceptional participation levels. This tiered volume classification allows traders to calibrate their position sizing and conviction levels based on the strength of market participation supporting the signal.
The flow momentum calculation adds a velocity dimension to the volume analysis. By calculating the rate of change of the net flow EMA over a user-defined momentum length—defaulted to five bars—the indicator measures not just the direction of volume flow but the acceleration or deceleration of that flow. A positive and increasing flow momentum indicates that buying pressure is not only dominant but intensifying, which typically precedes significant upward price movements. Conversely, negative and decreasing flow momentum suggests selling pressure is building upon itself, often preceding breakdowns. The indicator even calculates a second derivative—the momentum of momentum, termed flow acceleration—which can identify very early turning points when the rate of change itself begins to shift, providing the most forward-looking signal available from this methodology.
The divergence detection system represents one of the most powerful features for identifying potential trend reversals and continuations. The indicator maintains separate tracking of price extremes and flow extremes over a lookback period defaulted to fourteen bars. A bearish divergence is identified when price makes a new high or equals the recent high, but the net flow EMA is significantly below its recent high—specifically less than eighty percent of that high—and is declining compared to its value at the divergence lookback distance. This pattern indicates that while price is pushing higher, the volume support for that movement is deteriorating, which frequently precedes reversals. Bullish divergences work inversely, identifying situations where price makes new lows without corresponding weakness in volume flow, suggesting that selling pressure is exhausted and a reversal higher is probable. These divergence signals are plotted as distinct diamond shapes on the indicator, making them visually prominent for trader attention.
The accumulation and distribution zone detection provides a longer-term context for understanding institutional positioning. The indicator uses the bars-since function to track consecutive periods where the net flow EMA has remained positive or negative. When buying pressure has persisted for at least five consecutive bars, average intensity exceeds zero point six indicating strong closes within bar ranges, and volume is elevated above the threshold, the indicator identifies an accumulation zone. These zones suggest that smart money is systematically building long positions across multiple bars despite potentially choppy or sideways price action. Distribution zones are identified through the inverse criteria, revealing periods when institutions are systematically exiting or building short positions. These zones are visualized through colored fills on the indicator pane, creating a backdrop that helps traders understand the broader volume flow context beyond individual bar signals.
The signal strength scoring system provides a quantitative measure of conviction for each buy or sell signal. Rather than treating all signals as equal, the indicator assigns point values to different signal components: twenty-five points for the buy flow EMA-SMA crossover, twenty-five points for the net flow EMA-SMA crossover, twenty points for high volume presence, fifteen points for positive flow momentum, and fifteen points for bullish divergence presence. These points are summed to create a buy score that can range from zero to one hundred percent, with higher scores indicating that multiple independent confirmation factors are aligned. The same methodology creates a sell score, and these scores are displayed in the information table, allowing traders to quickly assess whether a signal represents a tentative suggestion or a high-conviction setup. This scoring approach transforms the indicator from a binary signal generator into a nuanced probability assessment tool.
The visual presentation of the indicator demonstrates exceptional attention to user experience and information density. The primary display shows the net flow EMA as a thick colored line that transitions between green when above zero and above its SMA, indicating strong buying, to a lighter green when above zero but below the SMA, indicating weakening buying, to red when below zero and below the SMA, indicating strong selling, to a lighter red when below zero but above the SMA, indicating weakening selling. This color gradient provides immediate visual feedback about both direction and momentum of volume flows. The net flow SMA is overlaid in orange as a reference line, and a zero line is drawn to clearly delineate positive from negative territory. Behind these lines, a histogram representation of the raw net flow—scaled down by thirty percent for visibility—shows bar-by-bar flow with color intensity reflecting whether flow is strengthening or weakening compared to the previous bar. This layered visualization allows traders to simultaneously see the raw data, the smoothed trend, and the trend of the trend, accommodating both short-term and longer-term trading perspectives.
The cumulative delta line adds a macro perspective by maintaining a running sum of all volume deltas divided by one million for scale, plotted in purple as a separate series. This cumulative measure acts similar to an on-balance volume calculation but with the sophisticated volume attribution methodology of this indicator, creating a long-term sentiment gauge that can reveal whether an asset is under sustained accumulation or distribution across days, weeks, or months. Divergences between this cumulative delta and price can identify major trend exhaustion or reversal points that might not be visible in the shorter-term flow measurements.
The signal plotting uses shape-based markers rather than background colors or arrows to maximize clarity while preserving chart space. Strong buy signals—meeting multiple criteria including EMA-SMA crossover, high volume, and positive momentum—appear as full-size green triangle-up shapes at the bottom of the indicator pane. Strong sell signals appear as full-size red triangle-down shapes at the top. Regular buy and sell signals that meet fewer criteria appear as smaller, semi-transparent circles, indicating they warrant attention but lack the full confirmation of strong signals. Divergence-based signals appear as distinct diamond shapes in cyan for bullish divergences and orange for bearish divergences, ensuring these critical reversal indicators are immediately recognizable and don't get confused with momentum-based signals. This multi-tiered signal hierarchy helps traders prioritize their analysis and avoid signal overload.
The information table in the top-right corner of the indicator pane provides real-time quantitative feedback on all major calculation components. It displays the current bar's buy volume and sell volume in millions with appropriate color coding, the imbalance percentage with color indicating whether it exceeds the threshold, the average intensity score showing whether closes are generally near highs or lows, the flow momentum value, and the current buy and sell scores. This table transforms the indicator from a purely graphical tool into a quantitative dashboard, allowing discretionary traders to incorporate specific numerical thresholds into their decision frameworks. For example, a trader might require that buy score exceed seventy percent and intensity exceed zero point six-five before taking a long position, creating objective entry criteria from subjective chart reading.
The background shading that occurs during very high volume periods provides an ambient alert system that doesn't require focused attention on the indicator pane. When volume spikes to one point five times the threshold and net flow EMA is positive, a very light green background appears across the entire indicator pane; when volume spikes with negative net flow, a light red background appears. These backgrounds create a subliminal awareness of exceptional market participation moments, ensuring traders notice when the market is making important decisions even if they're focused on price action or other indicators at that moment.
The alert system built into the indicator allows traders to receive notifications for strong buy signals, strong sell signals, bullish divergences, bearish divergences, and very high volume events. These alerts can be configured in TradingView to send push notifications to mobile devices, emails, or webhook calls to automated trading systems. This functionality transforms the indicator from a passive analysis tool into an active monitoring system that can watch markets continuously and notify the trader only when significant volume flow developments occur. For traders monitoring multiple instruments, this alert capability is invaluable for efficient time allocation, allowing them to analyze other opportunities while being instantly notified when this indicator identifies high-probability setups on their watch list.
The coding implementation demonstrates advanced Pine Script techniques including the use of request.security_lower_tf to access intrabar data, array manipulation to process variable-length intrabar arrays, proper variable scoping with var keyword for persistent state management across bars, and efficient conditional logic that prevents unnecessary calculations. The code structure with clearly delineated sections for inputs, calculations, signal generation, plotting, and alerts makes it maintainable and educational for those studying Pine Script development. The use of input groups with custom headers creates an organized settings panel that doesn't overwhelm users with dozens of ungrouped parameters, while still providing substantial customization capability for advanced users who want to optimize the indicator for specific instruments or timeframes.
For practical trading application, this indicator excels in several specific use cases. Scalpers and day traders can use the intrabar analysis to identify accumulation or distribution happening within the bars of their entry timeframe, providing early entry signals before momentum indicators or price patterns complete. Swing traders can use the cumulative delta and accumulation-distribution zones to understand whether short-term pullbacks in an uptrend are being bought or sold, helping distinguish between healthy retracements and trend reversals. Position traders can use the divergence detection to identify major turning points where price extremes are not supported by volume, providing low-risk entry points for counter-trend positions or warnings to exit with-trend positions before significant reversals.
The indicator is particularly valuable in ranging markets where price-based indicators produce numerous false breakout signals. By requiring that breakouts be accompanied by volume flow imbalances, the indicator filters out failed breakouts driven by low participation. When price breaks a range boundary accompanied by a strong buy or sell signal with high buy or sell score and very high volume, the probability of successful breakout follow-through increases dramatically. Conversely, when price breaks a range but the indicator shows low imbalance, opposing flow direction, or low volume, traders can fade the breakout or at minimum avoid chasing it.
During trending markets, the indicator helps traders identify the healthiest entry points by revealing where pullbacks are being accumulated by smart money. A trending market will show the cumulative delta continuing in the trend direction even as price pulls back, and accumulation zones will form during these pullbacks. When price resumes the trend, the indicator will generate strong buy or sell signals with high scores, providing objective entry points with clear invalidation levels. The flow momentum component helps traders stay with trends longer by distinguishing between healthy momentum pauses—where momentum goes to zero but doesn't reverse—and actual momentum reversals where opposing pressure is building.
The VWAP deviation weighting adds particular value for traders of liquid instruments like major forex pairs, stock indices, and high-volume stocks where VWAP is widely watched by institutional participants. When price deviates significantly from the intrabar VWAP and volume flows in the direction of that deviation with elevated weighting, it indicates that the move away from fair value is being driven by conviction rather than mechanical order flow. This suggests the deviation will likely extend further, creating continuation trading opportunities. Conversely, when price deviates from intrabar VWAP but volume flow shows reduced intensity or opposing direction despite the weighting, it suggests the deviation will revert to VWAP, creating mean reversion opportunities.
The ATR normalization option makes the indicator values comparable across different volatility regimes and different instruments. Without normalization, a one-million share buy-sell imbalance might be significant for a low-volatility stock but trivial for a high-volatility cryptocurrency. By normalizing the delta by ATR, the indicator accounts for the typical price movement capacity of the instrument, making signal thresholds and comparison values meaningful across different trading contexts. This is particularly valuable for traders running the indicator on multiple instruments who want consistent signal quality regardless of the underlying instrument characteristics.
The configurable decay factor allows traders to adjust how persistent they want volume flows to remain influential. For very short-term scalping, a lower decay factor like zero point five will cause volume imbalances to dissipate quickly, keeping the indicator focused only on very recent flows. For longer-term position trading, a higher decay factor like zero point nine-five will allow significant volume events to influence the indicator for many bars, revealing longer-term accumulation and distribution patterns. This flexibility makes the single indicator adaptable to trading styles ranging from one-minute scalping to daily chart position trading simply by adjusting the decay parameter and the lookback bars.
The minimum imbalance percentage setting provides crucial noise filtering that can be optimized per instrument. Highly liquid instruments with tight spreads might show numerous small imbalances that are meaningless, requiring a higher threshold like thirty-five or forty percent to filter noise effectively. Thinly traded instruments might rarely show extreme imbalances, requiring a lower threshold like fifteen or twenty percent to generate adequate signals. By making this threshold user-configurable with a wide range, the indicator accommodates the full spectrum of market microstructure characteristics across different instruments and timeframes.
In conclusion, the Intrabar Volume Flow Intelligence indicator represents a comprehensive volume analysis system that combines intrabar data access, sophisticated volume attribution algorithms, multi-timeframe smoothing, statistical filtering, divergence detection, zone identification, and intelligent signal scoring into a cohesive analytical framework. It provides traders with visibility into market dynamics that are invisible to price-only analysis and even to conventional volume analysis, revealing the true intentions of market participants through their actual transaction behavior within each bar. The indicator's strength lies not in any single feature but in the integration of multiple analytical layers that confirm and validate each other, creating high-probability signal generation that can form the foundation of complete trading systems or provide powerful confirmation for discretionary analysis. For traders willing to invest time in understanding its components and optimizing its parameters for their specific instruments and timeframes, this indicator offers a significant informational advantage in increasingly competitive markets where edge is derived from seeing what others miss and acting on that information before it becomes consensus.
Cosmic Volume Analyzer [JOAT]
Cosmic Volume Analyzer - Astrophysics Edition
Overview
Cosmic Volume Analyzer is an open-source oscillator indicator that applies astrophysics-inspired concepts to volume analysis. It classifies volume into buy/sell categories, calculates volume flow, detects accumulation/distribution phases, identifies climax volume events, and uses gravitational and stellar mass analogies to visualize volume dynamics.
What This Indicator Does
The indicator calculates and displays:
Volume Classification - Categorizes each bar as CLIMAX_BUY, CLIMAX_SELL, HIGH_BUY, HIGH_SELL, NORMAL_BUY, or NORMAL_SELL
Volume Flow - Percentage showing buy vs sell pressure over a lookback period
Buy/Sell Volume - Separated volume based on candle direction
Accumulation/Distribution - Phase detection using Money Flow Multiplier
Volume Oscillator - Fast vs slow volume EMA comparison
Gravitational Pull - Volume-weighted price attraction metric
Stellar Mass Index - Volume ratio combined with price momentum
Black Hole Detection - Identifies extremely low volume periods (liquidity voids)
Supernova Events - Detects extreme volume with extreme price movement
Orbital Cycles - Sine-wave based cyclical visualization
How It Works
Volume classification uses volume ratio and candle direction:
classifyVolume(series float vol, series float close, series float open) =>
float avgVol = ta.sma(vol, 20)
float volRatio = avgVol > 0 ? vol / avgVol : 1.0
if volRatio > 1.5
if close > open
classification := "CLIMAX_BUY"
else
classification := "CLIMAX_SELL"
else if volRatio > 1.2
// HIGH_BUY or HIGH_SELL
else
// NORMAL_BUY or NORMAL_SELL
Volume flow separates buy and sell volume over a period:
calculateVolumeFlow(series float vol, series float close, simple int period) =>
float currentBuyVol = close > open ? vol : 0.0
float currentSellVol = close < open ? vol : 0.0
// Accumulate in buffers
float flow = (buyVolume - sellVolume) / totalVol * 100
Accumulation/Distribution uses the Money Flow Multiplier:
float mfm = ((close - low) - (high - close)) / (high - low)
float mfv = mfm * vol
float adLine = ta.cum(mfv)
if adLine > adEMA and ta.rising(adLine, 3)
phase := "ACCUMULATION"
else if adLine < adEMA and ta.falling(adLine, 3)
phase := "DISTRIBUTION"
Gravitational pull uses volume-weighted price distance:
gravitationalPull(series float vol, series float price, simple int period) =>
float massCenter = ta.vwma(price, period)
float distance = math.abs(price - massCenter)
float mass = vol / ta.sma(vol, period)
float gravity = distance > 0 ? mass / (distance * distance) : 0.0
Signal Generation
Signals are generated based on volume conditions:
Buy Climax: Volume exceeds 2 standard deviations above average on bullish candle
Sell Climax: Volume exceeds 2 standard deviations above average on bearish candle
Strong Buy Flow: Volume flow exceeds positive threshold (default 45%)
Strong Sell Flow: Volume flow exceeds negative threshold (default -45%)
Supernova: Volume 3x average AND price change 3x average
Black Hole: Volume 2 standard deviations below average

VV Moving Average Convergence Divergence # VMACDv3 - Volume-Weighted MACD with A/D Divergence Detection
## Overview
**VMACDv3** (Volume-Weighted Moving Average Convergence Divergence Version 3) is a momentum indicator that applies volume-weighting to traditional MACD calculations on price, while using the Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) line for divergence detection. This hybrid approach combines volume-weighted price momentum with volume distribution analysis for comprehensive market insight.
## Key Features
- **Volume-Weighted Price MACD**: Traditional MACD calculation on price but weighted by volume for earlier signals
- **A/D Divergence Detection**: Identifies when A/D trend diverges from MACD momentum
- **Volume Strength Filtering**: Distinguishes high-volume confirmations from low-volume noise
- **Color-Coded Histogram**: 4-color system showing momentum direction and volume strength
- **Real-Time Alerts**: Background colors and alert conditions for bullish/bearish divergences
## Difference from ACCDv3
| Aspect | VMACDv3 | ACCDv3 |
|--------|---------|---------|
| **MACD Input** | **Price (Close)** | **A/D Line** |
| **Volume Weighting** | Applied to price | Applied to A/D line |
| **Primary Signal** | Volume-weighted price momentum | Volume distribution momentum |
| **Use Case** | Price momentum with volume confirmation | Volume flow and accumulation/distribution |
| **Sensitivity** | More responsive to price changes | More responsive to volume patterns |
| **Best For** | Trend following, breakouts | Volume analysis, smart money tracking |
**Key Insight**: VMACDv3 shows *where price is going* with volume weight, while ACCDv3 shows *where volume is accumulating/distributing*.
## Components
### 1. Volume-Weighted MACD on Price
Unlike standard MACD that uses simple price EMAs, VMACDv3 weights each price by its corresponding volume:
```
Fast Line = EMA(Price × Volume, 12) / EMA(Volume, 12)
Slow Line = EMA(Price × Volume, 26) / EMA(Volume, 26)
MACD = Fast Line - Slow Line
```
**Benefits of Volume Weighting**:
- High-volume price movements have greater impact
- Filters out low-volume noise and false moves
- Provides earlier trend change signals
- Better reflects institutional activity
### 2. Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) Line
Used for divergence detection, measuring buying/selling pressure:
```
A/D = Σ ((2 × Close - Low - High) / (High - Low)) × Volume
```
- **Rising A/D**: Accumulation (buying pressure)
- **Falling A/D**: Distribution (selling pressure)
- **Doji Handling**: When High = Low, contribution is zero
### 3. Signal Lines
- **MACD Line** (Blue, #2962FF): The fast-slow difference showing momentum
- **Signal Line** (Orange, #FF6D00): EMA or SMA smoothing of MACD
- **Zero Line**: Reference for bullish (above) vs bearish (below) bias
### 4. Histogram Color System
The histogram uses 4 distinct colors based on **direction** and **volume strength**:
| Condition | Color | Meaning |
|-----------|-------|---------|
| Rising + High Volume | **Dark Green** (#1B5E20) | Strong bullish momentum with volume confirmation |
| Rising + Low Volume | **Light Teal** (#26A69A) | Bullish momentum but weak volume (less reliable) |
| Falling + High Volume | **Dark Red** (#B71C1C) | Strong bearish momentum with volume confirmation |
| Falling + Low Volume | **Light Pink** (#FFCDD2) | Bearish momentum but weak volume (less reliable) |
Additional shading:
- **Light Cyan** (#B2DFDB): Positive but not rising (momentum stalling)
- **Bright Red** (#FF5252): Negative and accelerating down
### 5. Divergence Detection
VMACDv3 compares A/D trend against volume-weighted price MACD:
#### Bullish Divergence (Green Background)
- **Condition**: A/D is trending up BUT MACD is negative and trending down
- **Interpretation**: Volume is accumulating while price momentum appears weak
- **Signal**: Smart money accumulation, potential bullish reversal
- **Action**: Look for long entries, especially at support levels
#### Bearish Divergence (Red Background)
- **Condition**: A/D is trending down BUT MACD is positive and trending up
- **Interpretation**: Volume is distributing while price momentum appears strong
- **Signal**: Smart money distribution, potential bearish reversal
- **Action**: Consider exits, avoid new longs, watch for breakdown
## Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| **Source** | Close | OHLC/HLC3/etc | Price source for MACD calculation |
| **Fast Length** | 12 | 1-50 | Period for fast EMA (shorter = more sensitive) |
| **Slow Length** | 26 | 1-100 | Period for slow EMA (longer = smoother) |
| **Signal Smoothing** | 9 | 1-50 | Period for signal line (MACD smoothing) |
| **Signal Line MA Type** | EMA | SMA/EMA | Moving average type for signal calculation |
| **Volume MA Length** | 20 | 5-100 | Period for volume average (strength filter) |

MACD: -50 → +20 (crosses zero)
Histogram: Light teal → Dark green → Dark green
Volume: 50k → 75k → 90k (increasing)
```
#### Strategy 2: Divergence Reversal Trading
1. Identify divergence background (green = bullish, red = bearish)
2. Confirm with price structure (support/resistance, chart patterns)
3. Wait for MACD to cross signal line in divergence direction
4. Enter on first **dark colored** histogram bar after divergence
5. Set stop beyond divergence area
6. Target previous swing high/low
**Example - Bullish Divergence**:
```
Price: Making lower lows (26,350 → 26,300 → 26,250)
A/D: Rising (accumulation)
MACD: Below zero but starting to curve up
Background: Green shading appears
Entry: MACD crosses signal line + dark green bar
Stop: Below 26,230
Target: 26,450 (previous high)
```
#### Strategy 3: Momentum Scalping
1. Trade only in direction of MACD zero line (above = long, below = short)
2. Enter on dark colored bars only
3. Exit on first light colored bar or opposite color
4. Quick in and out (1-5 minute holds)
5. Tight stops (0.2-0.5% depending on instrument)
#### Strategy 4: Histogram Pattern Trading
**V-Bottom Reversal (Bullish)**:
- Red histogram bars start rising (becoming less negative)
- Forms "V" shape at the bottom
- Transitions to light red → light teal → **dark green**
- Entry: First dark green bar
- Signal: Momentum reversal with volume
**Λ-Top Reversal (Bearish)**:
- Green histogram bars start falling (becoming less positive)
- Forms inverted "V" at the top
- Transitions to light green → light pink → **dark red**
- Entry: First dark red bar
- Signal: Momentum exhaustion with volume
### Multi-Timeframe Analysis
**Recommended Approach**:
1. **Higher Timeframe (15m/1h)**: Identify overall trend direction
2. **Trading Timeframe (5m)**: Time entries using VMACDv3 signals
3. **Lower Timeframe (1m)**: Fine-tune entry prices
**Example Setup**:
```
15-minute: MACD above zero (bullish bias)
5-minute: Dark green histogram appears after pullback
1-minute: Enter on break of recent high with volume
```
### Volume Strength Interpretation
The volume filter compares current volume to 20-period average:
- **Volume > Average**: Dark colors (green/red) - high confidence signals
- **Volume < Average**: Light colors (teal/pink) - lower confidence signals
**Trading Rules**:
- ✓ **Aggressive**: Take all dark colored signals
- ✓ **Conservative**: Only take dark colors that follow 2+ light colors of same type
- ✗ **Avoid**: Trading light colored signals during high volatility
- ✗ **Avoid**: Ignoring volume context during news events
## Technical Details
### Volume-Weighted Calculation
```pine
// Volume-weighted fast EMA
fast_ma = ta.ema(src * volume, fast_length) / ta.ema(volume, fast_length)
// Volume-weighted slow EMA
slow_ma = ta.ema(src * volume, slow_length) / ta.ema(volume, slow_length)
// MACD is the difference
macd = fast_ma - slow_ma
// Signal line smoothing
signal = ta.ema(macd, signal_length) // or ta.sma() if SMA selected
// Histogram
hist = macd - signal
```
### Divergence Detection Logic
```pine
// A/D trending up if above its 5-period SMA
ad_trend = ad > ta.sma(ad, 5)
// MACD trending up if above zero
macd_trend = macd > 0
// Divergence when trends oppose each other
divergence = ad_trend != macd_trend
// Specific conditions for alerts
bullish_divergence = ad_trend and not macd_trend and macd < 0
bearish_divergence = not ad_trend and macd_trend and macd > 0
```
### Histogram Coloring Logic
```pine
hist_color = (hist >= 0
? (hist < hist
? (vol_strength ? #1B5E20 : #26A69A) // Rising: dark/light green
: #B2DFDB) // Positive but falling: cyan
: (hist < hist
? (vol_strength ? #B71C1C : #FFCDD2) // Rising (less negative): dark/light red
: #FF5252)) // Falling more: bright red
```

## Best Practices
### Entry Rules
✓ **Wait for dark colors**: High-volume confirmation is key
✓ **Confirm divergences**: Use with price support/resistance
✓ **Trade with zero line**: Long above, short below for best odds
✓ **Multiple timeframes**: Align 1m, 5m, 15m signals
✓ **Watch for patterns**: V-bottoms and Λ-tops are reliable
### Exit Rules
✓ **Partial profits**: Take 50% at first target
✓ **Trail stops**: Use histogram color changes
✓ **Respect signals**: Exit on opposite dark color
✓ **Time stops**: Close positions before major news
✓ **End of day**: Square up before close
### Avoid
✗ **Don't chase light colors**: Low volume = low confidence
✗ **Don't ignore divergence**: Early warning system
✗ **Don't overtrade**: Wait for clear setups
✗ **Don't fight the trend**: Zero line dictates bias
✗ **Don't skip stops**: Always use risk management
## Risk Management
### Position Sizing
- **Dark green/red signals**: 1-2% account risk
- **Light signals**: 0.5% account risk or skip
- **Divergence plays**: 1% account risk (higher uncertainty)
- **Multiple confirmations**: Up to 2% account risk
### Stop Loss Placement
- **Trend trades**: Below/above recent swing (20-30 points typical)
- **Breakout trades**: Below/above breakout level (15-25 points)
- **Divergence trades**: Beyond divergence extreme (25-40 points)
- **Scalp trades**: Tight stops at 10-15 points
### Profit Targets
- **Minimum**: 1.5:1 reward to risk ratio
- **Scalps**: 15-25 points (quick in/out)
- **Swing**: 50-100 points (hold through pullbacks)
- **Runners**: Trail with histogram color changes
## Timeframe Recommendations
| Timeframe | Trading Style | Typical Hold | Advantages | Challenges |
|-----------|---------------|--------------|------------|------------|
| **1-minute** | Scalping | 1-5 minutes | Fast profits, many setups | Noisy, high false signals |
| **5-minute** | Intraday | 15-60 minutes | Balance of speed/clarity | Still requires quick decisions |
| **15-minute** | Swing | 1-4 hours | Clearer trends, less noise | Fewer opportunities |
| **1-hour** | Position | 4-24 hours | Strong signals, less monitoring | Wider stops required |
**Recommendation**: Start with 5-minute for best balance of signal quality and opportunity frequency.
## Combining with Other Indicators
### VMACDv3 + ACCDv3
- **Use**: Confirm volume flow with price momentum
- **Signal**: Both showing dark green = highest conviction long
- **Divergence**: VMACDv3 bullish + ACCDv3 bearish = examine price action
### VMACDv3 + RSI
- **Use**: Overbought/oversold with momentum confirmation
- **Signal**: RSI < 30 + dark green VMACD = strong reversal
- **Caution**: RSI > 70 + light green VMACD = potential false breakout
### VMACDv3 + Elder Impulse
- **Use**: Bar coloring + histogram confirmation
- **Signal**: Green Elder bars + dark green VMACD = aligned momentum
- **Exit**: Blue Elder bars + light colors = momentum stalling
## Limitations
- **Requires volume data**: Will not work on instruments without volume feed
- **Lagging indicator**: MACD inherently follows price (2-3 bar delay)
- **Consolidation noise**: Generates false signals in tight ranges
- **Gap handling**: Large gaps can distort volume-weighted values
- **Not standalone**: Should combine with price action and support/resistance
## Troubleshooting
**Problem**: Too many light colored signals
**Solution**: Increase Volume MA Length to 30-40 for stricter filtering
**Problem**: Missing entries due to waiting for dark colors
**Solution**: Lower Volume MA Length to 10-15 for more signals (accept lower quality)
**Problem**: Divergences not appearing
**Solution**: Verify volume data available; check if A/D line is calculating
**Problem**: Histogram colors not changing
**Solution**: Ensure real-time data feed; refresh indicator
## Version History

ACCDv3# ACCDv3 - Accumulation/Distribution MACD with Divergence Detection
## Overview
**ACCDv3** (Accumulation/Distribution MACD Version 3) is an advanced volume-weighted momentum indicator that combines the Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) line with MACD methodology and divergence detection. It helps identify trend strength, momentum shifts, and potential reversals by analyzing volume-weighted price movements.
## Key Features
- **Volume-Weighted MACD**: Applies MACD calculation to volume-weighted A/D values for earlier, more reliable signals
- **Divergence Detection**: Identifies when A/D trend diverges from MACD momentum
- **Volume Strength Filtering**: Distinguishes high-volume confirmations from low-volume noise
- **Color-Coded Histogram**: 4-color system showing momentum direction and volume strength
- **Real-Time Alerts**: Background colors and alert conditions for bullish/bearish divergences
## Components
### 1. Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) Line
The A/D line measures buying and selling pressure by comparing the close price to the trading range, weighted by volume:
```
A/D = Σ ((2 × Close - Low - High) / (High - Low)) × Volume
```
- **Rising A/D**: More accumulation (buying pressure)
- **Falling A/D**: More distribution (selling pressure)
- **Doji Handling**: When High = Low, contribution is zero (avoids division errors)
### 2. Volume-Weighted MACD
Instead of simple EMAs, the indicator weights A/D values by volume:
- **Fast Line** (default 12): `EMA(A/D × Volume, 12) / EMA(Volume, 12)`
- **Slow Line** (default 26): `EMA(A/D × Volume, 26) / EMA(Volume, 26)`
- **MACD Line**: Fast Line - Slow Line (green line)
- **Signal Line** (default 9): EMA or SMA of MACD (orange line)
- **Histogram**: MACD - Signal (color-coded columns)
This volume-weighting ensures that periods with higher volume have greater influence on the indicator values.
### 3. Histogram Color System
The histogram uses 4 distinct colors based on **direction** and **volume strength**:
| Condition | Color | Meaning |
|-----------|-------|---------|
| Rising + High Volume | **Dark Green** (#1B5E20) | Strong bullish momentum with volume confirmation |
| Rising + Low Volume | **Light Teal** (#26A69A) | Bullish momentum but weak volume (less reliable) |
| Falling + High Volume | **Dark Red** (#B71C1C) | Strong bearish momentum with volume confirmation |
| Falling + Low Volume | **Light Red/Pink** (#FFCDD2) | Bearish momentum but weak volume (less reliable) |
Additional shading:
- **Light Cyan** (#B2DFDB): Positive but not rising (momentum stalling)
- **Bright Red** (#FF5252): Negative and accelerating down
### 4. Divergence Detection
Divergence occurs when A/D trend and MACD momentum move in opposite directions:
#### Bullish Divergence (Green Background)
- **Condition**: A/D is trending up BUT MACD is negative and trending down
- **Interpretation**: Accumulation increasing while momentum appears weak
- **Signal**: Potential bullish reversal or continuation
- **Action**: Look for entry opportunities or hold long positions
#### Bearish Divergence (Red Background)
- **Condition**: A/D is trending down BUT MACD is positive and trending up
- **Interpretation**: Distribution increasing while momentum appears strong
- **Signal**: Potential bearish reversal or weakening uptrend
- **Action**: Consider exits, tighten stops, or prepare for reversal
## Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Range | Description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-------------|
| **Fast Length** | 12 | 1-50 | Period for fast EMA (shorter = more sensitive) |
| **Slow Length** | 26 | 1-100 | Period for slow EMA (longer = smoother) |
| **Signal Smoothing** | 9 | 1-50 | Period for signal line (MACD smoothing) |
| **Signal Line MA Type** | EMA | SMA/EMA | Moving average type for signal calculation |
| **Volume MA Length** | 20 | 5-100 | Period for volume average (strength filter) |
## Usage Guide
### Reading the Indicator
1. **MACD Lines (Green & Orange)**
- **Crossovers**: When green crosses above orange = bullish, below = bearish
- **Distance**: Wider gap = stronger momentum
- **Zero Line**: Above = bullish bias, below = bearish bias
2. **Histogram Colors**
- Focus on **dark colors** (dark green/red) for high-confidence signals
- Be cautious with **light colors** (teal/pink) - wait for volume confirmation
- Watch for **rising red bars** (V-bottom pattern) = potential bullish reversal
- Watch for **falling green bars** (Λ-top pattern) = potential bearish reversal
3. **Background Divergence Alerts**
- **Green background**: Bullish divergence - consider long entries
- **Red background**: Bearish divergence - consider exits or shorts
- Best used in combination with price action and support/resistance levels
### Trading Strategies
#### Trend Following
1. Wait for MACD to cross above zero line with dark green histogram
2. Enter long when histogram shows consecutive dark green bars
3. Exit when histogram turns light green or red appears
#### Divergence Trading
1. Wait for background divergence alert (green or red)
2. Confirm with price action (support/resistance, candlestick patterns)
3. Enter on next dark-colored histogram bar in divergence direction
4. Set stops beyond recent swing high/low
#### Volume Confirmation
1. Ignore signals during low-volume periods (light colors)
2. Take aggressive positions during high-volume confirmations (dark colors)
3. Use volume strength as position sizing guide (larger size on dark bars)
### Best Practices
✓ **Combine with price action**: Don't rely on indicator alone
✓ **Wait for dark colors**: High-volume bars are more reliable
✓ **Watch for divergences**: Early warning signs of reversals
✓ **Use multiple timeframes**: Confirm signals across 1m, 5m, 15m
✓ **Respect zero line**: Trading direction should align with MACD side
✗ **Don't chase light-colored signals**: Low volume = lower reliability
✗ **Don't ignore context**: Market structure and levels matter
✗ **Don't over-trade**: Wait for clear, high-volume setups
✗ **Don't ignore alerts**: Divergences are early warnings
## Technical Details
### Volume-Weighted Calculation Method
Traditional MACD uses simple price EMAs. ACCDv3 weights each A/D value by its corresponding volume:
```pine
// Volume-weighted fast EMA
close_vol_fast = ta.ema(ad × volume, fast_length)
vol_fast = ta.ema(volume, fast_length)
vw_ad_fast = close_vol_fast / vol_fast
// Same for slow EMA
close_vol_slow = ta.ema(ad × volume, slow_length)
vol_slow = ta.ema(volume, slow_length)
vw_ad_slow = close_vol_slow / vol_slow
// MACD is the difference
macd = vw_ad_fast - vw_ad_slow
```
This ensures high-volume periods have proportionally more impact on the indicator.
### Volume Strength Filter
Determines whether current volume is above or below average:
```pine
vol_avg = ta.sma(volume, vol_length)
vol_strength = volume > vol_avg
```
Used to select dark (high volume) vs light (low volume) histogram colors.
### Divergence Logic
```pine
// A/D trending up if above its 5-period SMA
ad_trend = ad > ta.sma(ad, 5)
// MACD trending up if above zero
macd_trend = macd > 0
// Divergence when trends oppose
divergence = ad_trend != macd_trend
// Specific conditions
bullish_divergence = ad_trend and not macd_trend and macd < 0
bearish_divergence = not ad_trend and macd_trend and macd > 0
```
## Alerts
The indicator includes built-in alert conditions:
- **Bullish Divergence**: "Bullish Divergence: A/D trending up but MACD trending down"
- **Bearish Divergence**: "Bearish Divergence: A/D trending down but MACD trending up"
To enable:
1. Click "Create Alert" button in TradingView
2. Select "ACCDv3" as condition
3. Choose "Bullish Divergence" or "Bearish Divergence"
4. Configure notification method (popup, email, webhook, etc.)

Quarterly Theory ICT 01 [TradingFinder] XAMD + Q1-Q4 Sessions🔵 Introduction
The Quarterly Theory ICT indicator is an advanced analytical system based on the concepts of ICT (Inner Circle Trader) and fractal time. It divides time into quarterly periods and accurately determines entry and exit points for trades by using the True Open as the starting point of each cycle. This system is applicable across various time frames including annual, monthly, weekly, daily, and even 90-minute sessions.
Time is divided into four quarters: in the first quarter (Q1), which is dedicated to the Accumulation phase, the market is in a consolidation state, laying the groundwork for a new trend; in the second quarter (Q2), allocated to the Manipulation phase (also known as Judas Swing), sudden price changes and false moves occur, marking the true starting point of a trend change; the third quarter (Q3) is dedicated to the Distribution phase, during which prices are broadly distributed and price volatility peaks; and the fourth quarter (Q4), corresponding to the Continuation/Reversal phase, either continues or reverses the previous trend.
By leveraging smart algorithms and technical analysis, this system identifies optimal price patterns and trading positions through the precise detection of stop-run and liquidity zones.
With the division of time into Q1 through Q4 and by incorporating key terms such as Quarterly Theory ICT, True Open, Accumulation, Manipulation (Judas Swing), Distribution, Continuation/Reversal, ICT, fractal time, smart algorithms, technical analysis, price patterns, trading positions, stop-run, and liquidity, this system enables traders to identify market trends and make informed trading decisions using real data and precise analysis.
♦ Important Note :
This indicator and the "Quarterly Theory ICT" concept have been developed based on material published in primary sources, notably the articles on Daye( traderdaye ) and Joshuuu . All copyright rights are reserved.
🔵 How to Use
The Quarterly Theory ICT strategy is built on dividing time into four distinct periods across various time frames such as annual, monthly, weekly, daily, and even 90-minute sessions. In this approach, time is segmented into four quarters, during which the phases of Accumulation, Manipulation (Judas Swing), Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal appear in a systematic and recurring manner.
The first segment (Q1) functions as the Accumulation phase, where the market consolidates and lays the foundation for future movement; the second segment (Q2) represents the Manipulation phase, during which prices experience sudden initial changes, and with the aid of the True Open concept, the real starting point of the market’s movement is determined; in the third segment (Q3), the Distribution phase takes place, where prices are widely dispersed and price volatility reaches its peak; and finally, the fourth segment (Q4) is recognized as the Continuation/Reversal phase, in which the previous trend either continues or reverses.
This strategy, by harnessing the concepts of fractal time and smart algorithms, enables precise analysis of price patterns across multiple time frames and, through the identification of key points such as stop-run and liquidity zones, assists traders in optimizing their trading positions. Utilizing real market data and dividing time into Q1 through Q4 allows for a comprehensive and multi-level technical analysis in which optimal entry and exit points are identified by comparing prices to the True Open.
Thus, by focusing on keywords like Quarterly Theory ICT, True Open, Accumulation, Manipulation, Distribution, Continuation/Reversal, ICT, fractal time, smart algorithms, technical analysis, price patterns, trading positions, stop-run, and liquidity, the Quarterly Theory ICT strategy acts as a coherent framework for predicting market trends and developing trading strategies.

🔵 Conclusion
Quarterly Theory ICT provides a fractal and recurring approach to analyzing price behavior by dividing time into four quarters (Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4) and defining the True Open at the beginning of the second phase.
The Accumulation, Manipulation (Judas Swing), Distribution, and Continuation/Reversal phases repeat in each cycle, allowing traders to identify price patterns with greater precision across annual, monthly, weekly, daily, and even micro-level time frames.
Focusing on the True Open as the primary reference point enables faster recognition of potential trend changes and facilitates optimal management of trading positions.

By understanding its components and how to configure it, traders of all levels can leverage this indicator to enhance their trading strategies. Experiment with the settings and integrate it into your analysis to gain valuable insights into market movements.
Indicator Components
WMA Length : The length of the WMA. This controls how many periods are included in the calculation.
Start : The starting value for accumulation levels.
End : The ending value for accumulation levels.
Key Concepts
Weighted Moving Average (WMA): A type of moving average that gives more weight to recent price data, making it more responsive to recent price changes.
Growth Rate : Measures how much the WMA has increased or decreased over a specified period, expressed as a percentage.
Accumulation and Distribution Levels : Zones where buying (accumulation) or selling (distribution) pressure is expected.
Configuring the Inputs
WMA Length : Adjust this value to change the sensitivity of the WMA. A smaller value makes the WMA more sensitive to recent price changes, while a larger value smooths out the data more.
Start and End : Adjust these values to define the range for accumulation and distribution levels. The indicator will automatically adjust the colors based on whether the Start value is higher or lower than the End value.
Interpreting the Plots
WMAT Line : The main trend line that shows the direction and strength of the trend.
Growth Index : Shows the growth rate of the WMAT.
Accumulation Levels : Indicated by lines and fill colors, showing potential zones to increase positions.
Distribution Levels : Indicated by lines and fill colors, showing potential zones to decrease positions.
The indicator checks if "Start" is greater than "End". Based on this check, it assigns colors to the accumulation and distribution levels. This color scheme helps traders visually distinguish between areas of potential buying and selling zones.
Wyckoff Range StrategyThe Wyckoff Range Strategy is a trading strategy that aims to identify potential accumulation and distribution phases in the market using the principles of Wyckoff analysis. It also incorporates the detection of spring and upthrust patterns.
Here's a step-by-step explanation of how to use this strategy:
Understanding Accumulation and Distribution Phases:
Accumulation Phase: This is a period where smart money (large institutional traders) accumulates a particular asset at lower prices. It is characterized by a sideways or consolidating price action.
Distribution Phase: This is a period where smart money distributes or sells a particular asset at higher prices. It is also characterized by a sideways or consolidating price action.
Input Variables:
crossOverLength: This variable determines the length of the moving average crossover used to identify accumulation and distribution phases. You can adjust this value based on the market you are trading and the time frame you are analyzing.
stopPercentage: This variable determines the percentage used to calculate the stop loss level. It helps you define a predefined level at which you would exit a trade if the price moves against your position.
Strategy Conditions:
Enter Long: The strategy looks for a crossover of the close price above the SMA of the close price with a length of crossOverLength and a crossover of the low price above the SMA of the low price with a length of 20. This combination suggests the start of an accumulation phase and a potential buying opportunity.
Exit Long: The strategy looks for a crossunder of the close price below the SMA of the close price with a length of crossOverLength or a crossunder of the high price below the SMA of the high price with a length of 20. This combination suggests the end of an accumulation phase and a potential exit signal for long positions.
Enter Short: The strategy looks for a crossunder of the close price below the SMA of the close price with a length of crossOverLength and a crossunder of the high price below the SMA of the high price with a length of 20. This combination suggests the start of a distribution phase and a potential selling opportunity.
Exit Short: The strategy looks for a crossover of the close price above the SMA of the close price with a length of crossOverLength or a crossover of the low price above the SMA of the low price with a length of 20. This combination suggests the end of a distribution phase and a potential exit signal for short positions.
Stop Loss:
The strategy sets a stop loss level for both long and short positions. The stop loss level is calculated based on the stopPercentage variable, which represents the percentage of the current close price. If the price reaches the stop loss level, the strategy will automatically exit the position.
Plotting Wyckoff Schematics:
The strategy plots different shapes on the chart to indicate the identified phases and patterns. Green and red labels indicate the accumulation and distribution phases, respectively. Blue triangles indicate spring patterns, and orange triangles indicate upthrust patterns.

Teemo Volume Delta & Market HUDTeemo Volume Delta & Market HUD
Description:
Teemo Volume Delta goes beyond simple volume indicators to provide expert-level analysis of Buy and Sell pressure within the market. It visualizes supply/demand imbalances inside candles and provides an immediate grasp of market control via a real-time HUD.
With the v1.2.0 update, we have removed unnecessary overlays (like EMAs) to focus on Pure Delta Analysis and a flexible Smart Accumulation System, making the tool lighter and more powerful.
🚀 Key Features
1. Dual Calculation Modes Offers two calculation methods tailored to your trading environment and goals:
Estimation: Rapidly estimates buy/sell volume based on candle shape (OHLC) and price range. It features fast loading times and works instantly on all assets.
Intraday: Analyzes lower timeframe data (e.g., 1-minute bars) to calculate the precise delta of the current timeframe. (Loading time may vary depending on TradingView data limits.)
2. Smart Accumulation System Supports strategic analysis beyond simple summation with two distinct modes:
Time Based: Resets the Cumulative Delta to 0 at specific intervals (e.g., every 4 hours, Daily). This is optimized for session-based analysis or day trading.
Infinite: Continuously accumulates data without resetting, ideal for analyzing long-term Divergences between price and delta.
3. Intuitive HUD (Heads-Up Display) Displays critical market data on the chart for instant decision-making:
Delta Panel: Shows real-time Buy/Sell volume and Net Delta for the current candle.
Market HUD: Provides a comprehensive view of Trend Strength (ADX), Momentum (RSI), and the Cumulative Buy/Sell status for the current period.
4. Teemo Design System (v1.2) Provides optimized color themes for visual comfort during long trading sessions:
Teemo Neon: High-contrast Mint/Purple theme optimized for dark backgrounds.
Classic Soft: A calming Soft Green/Red theme designed to reduce eye strain (Recommended for all backgrounds).
⚙️ Settings Guide
Calculation Mode: Choose between Estimation (Speed) or Intraday (Precision).
Accumulation Mode: Choose Time Based (Periodic Reset) or Infinite (Continuous).
Reset Period: Set the reset interval for Time Based mode (e.g., 1D = Daily Reset).
Color Preset: Select between Teemo Neon or Classic Soft themes.
💡 Trading Tips
Delta Divergence: If the price makes a higher high but the Cumulative Delta (HUD) makes a lower high, it signals weakening buying pressure and a potential reversal.
Candle Coloring: A solid Mint (or Green) candle body indicates a price rise accompanied by strong actual buying volume, offering higher reliability than standard candles.
HUD Confluence: Consider trend-following entries when the ADX is above 25 and the Delta is heavily skewed in one direction.
This indicator is for informational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice. The Estimation mode provides approximations based on algorithms, and the Intraday mode's accuracy depends on the quality of the lower timeframe data provided by the exchange.

💡 활용 팁 (Trading Tips)
델타 다이버전스: 가격은 신고가를 갱신하지만 누적 델타(Cum Delta)는 낮아진다면, 매수세가 약화되고 있다는 강력한 반전 신호입니다.
캔들 컬러링: 캔들의 몸통 색상이 짙은 민트색(또는 그린)이라면 강력한 매수세가 동반된 상승을 의미하며, 신뢰도가 높습니다.
HUD 활용: ADX가 25 이상이면서 델타가 한쪽 방향으로 쏠릴 때 추세 매매를 고려하세요.
이 지표는 정보 제공의 목적으로만 사용되며, 재정적 조언이 아닙니다. Estimation 모드는 근사치를 제공하며, Intraday 모드는 거래소에서 제공하는 하위 데이터의 품질에 따라 정확도가 달라질 수 있습니다.
