Range Analysis - By LeviathanThe Interactive Range Analysis script is an essential tool for analyzing price ranges. It automatically draws important range levels, generates a Volume Profile or Open Interest profile and horizontal/vertical heatmaps, plots the anchored VWAP, draws Fibonacci levels, and much more.
How to use the indicator:
1. The script will prompt you to select the "Start Time" and "End Time" using Tradingview's interactive interface. These two points will determine the length of the range.
2. Once you have selected the range, the script will automatically anchor the range highs and lows to the highest and lowest close/wick/hlc3/ohlc4 (whichever you prefer).
3. You can then begin exploring different tools and options such as Quarters, Eighths, Fibonacci, Outer Levels, VWAP, Horizontal Volume/OI Heatmap, Vertical Volume/OI Heatmap, Fixed Range Volume Profile, Open Interest Profile, Value Area, VAH, VAL, and POC.
4. You can adjust the range by dragging the Start Time and End Time anchors or by removing/reapplying the script.
Tool overview
Range Levels
After selecting your preferred time range, the script will identify and draw a range high level and a range low level, which serve as a base for other important levels. “Half” is the level halfway between the range high and range low. “Quarters” will, as the name suggests, split the range into four equal zones (quarters) and “Eighths” will split the range into eight equal zones (eighths).
”Fibonacci” option allows you to display Fibonacci retracement levels (0.786, 0.618, 0.382, 0.236). “VWAP” will plot a Volume Weighted Average Price, anchored to the start of the range. “Direction” input lets you choose whether your range is UP or DOWN trending in order to make sure that the Fibonacci levels and labels are generated and assigned correctly. With “Outer” turned ON, the script will also generate active levels (quarters/eighths/Fibonacci) above and below the selected price range. “Extend Right” will extend all levels to the right indefinitely, while “Extend (+Bars)” lets you choose how far right the levels get extended. “Diagonal Line” is drawn from the bottom left of the range to the top right of the range or from the top left of the range to the bottom right of the range, depending on the “Direction” input.
Volume Profile / Open Interest Profile
After selecting the “Data Type”, Volume Profile or OI Profile can be generated by turning ON the “Volume/OI Profile” option.
“Resolution” input defines the amount of nodes/rows in the range that are used in profile/heatmap generation for distributing the data. While you can increase the “Resolution” to get better, more granular profiles, you should keep in mind that you might need to lower the resolution when generating profiles for larger ranges.
”Node Type” offers you two options when it comes to the representation of data: Up/Down - divides a node in two sections for up volume/OI and down volume/OI, Total - one node for total volume/OI and Delta - net difference in up volume/OI and down volume/OI.
”Profile Position” lets you choose whether the profile is positioned on the left side of the range or on the right side of the range.
“Profile Direction” determines whether the profile nodes are facing right or left.
“Profile Type” enables you to visualize the nodes in a classic way (Type 1) or in a way where down volume/negative OI are positioned on the left side of the y axis and up volume/positive OI on the right side of the y axis.
“Node Size (%)” defines how much space in the range can be taken by the profile’s nodes. Eg. 50% will allow the largest node to extend to the middle of the range (and others scaled accordingly), 100% will allow the largest node to extend the max right point of the range (and others scaled accordingly).
”Value Area (%)” defines the VA zone, which represents the area where the most volume occured (usually 70% or 68%).
”Horizontal Heatmap” will display a heatmap-like overlay, that will help you identify the price levels where most volume/open interest action occurred.
”Vertical Heatmap” will display a heatmap-like overlay, that will help you identify the points in time where most volume/open interest action occurred.
A more detailed description of this indicator is coming in the next few days.
Important:
* If volume or OI profile does not get generated, try lowering the resolution.
* Once in a while, the script will disappear from your chart. Just remove and reapply.
* Open Interest data is only avaiable on Binance Perpetual Futures pairs

Fair Value Gap Profiles [AlgoAlpha]🟠 OVERVIEW
This script draws and manages Fair Value Gap (FVG) zones by detecting unfilled gaps in price action and then augmenting them with intra-gap volume profiles from a lower timeframe. It is designed to help traders find potential areas where price may return to fill liquidity voids, and to provide extra detail about volume distribution inside each gap to assess strength and likely mitigation. The script automatically tracks each gap, updates its state over time, and can show which gaps are still unfilled or have been mitigated.
🟠 CONCEPTS
A Fair Value Gap is a zone between candles where no trades occurred, often seen as an inefficiency that price later revisits. The script checks each bar to see if a bullish (low above 2-bars-ago high) or bearish (high below 2-bars-ago low) gap has formed, and measures whether the gap’s size exceeds a threshold defined by a volatility-adjusted multiplier of past gap widths (to only detect significantly large gaps). Once a qualified gap is found, it gets recorded and visualized with a box that can stretch forward in time until filled. To add more context, a mini volume profile is built from a lower timeframe’s price and volume data, showing how volume is distributed inside the gap. The lowest-volume subzone is also highlighted using a sliding window scan method to visualise the true gap (area with least trading activity)
🟠 FEATURES
Visual gap boxes that appear automatically when bullish or bearish fair value gaps are detected on the chart.
Color-coded zones showing bullish gaps in one color and bearish gaps in another so you can easily see which side the gap favors.
Volume profile histograms plotted inside each gap using data from a lower timeframe, helping you see where volume concentrated inside the gap area.
Highlight of the lowest-volume subzone within each gap so you can spot areas price may target when filling the gap.
Dynamic extension of the gap boxes across the chart until price comes back and fills them, marking them as mitigated.
Customizable colors and transparency settings for gap boxes, profiles, and low-volume highlights to match your chart style.
Alerts that notify you when a new gap is created or when price fills an existing gap.
🟠 USAGE
This indicator helps you find and track unfilled price gaps that often act as magnets for price to revisit. You can use it to spot areas where liquidity may rest and plan entries or exits around these zones.
The colored gap boxes show you exactly where a fair value gap starts and ends, so you can anticipate potential pullbacks or continuations when price approaches them.
The intra-gap volume profile lets you gauge whether the gap was created on strong or thin participation, which can help judge how likely it is to be filled. The highlighted lowest-volume subzone shows where price might accelerate once inside the gap.
Traders often look for entries when price returns to a gap, aiming for a reaction or reversal in that area. You can also combine the mitigation alerts with your trade management to track when gaps have been closed and adjust your bias accordingly. Overall, the tool gives a clear visual reference for imbalance zones that can help structure trades around supply and demand dynamics.

Market Core [BigBeluga]MARKET CORE Toolkit
The BigBeluga Market Core Toolkit is a comprehensive suite of advanced trading indicators designed to provide traders with a holistic view of market dynamics, structure, and potential opportunities.
In an ever-evolving market, relying on a single indicator can leave traders vulnerable to gaps in their analysis. The BigBeluga Market Core Toolkit addresses this challenge by integrating a range of complementary indicators that work synergistically to reveal the full picture. From detecting key support and resistance levels to identifying market structure shifts, volume imbalances, inefficiencies or analysis of money flow, this toolkit covers every aspect of market behavior.
⬤ Order Blocks
BigBeluga Order Blocks revolutionize the way traders visualize potential areas of significant market activity. Unlike traditional order block indicators that often result in cluttered, noisy charts, these Order Blocks are designed for clarity and effectiveness. They simulate and predict where large areas of market orders may rest by analyzing volume and volatility, providing excellent support or resistance areas.
The blocks offer cleaner chart presentation with reasonable distribution, volume ratio visualization within each block, and categorization into Strong, High and Balanced blocks.
Additionally, a third line has been introduced to rank order blocks by volume using a modified percent rank method for more precise ranking.
This ranking system uses percentile ranks, a concept commonly used in standardized tests. In the context of order blocks, the percentile rank of a particular order block's volume is interpreted as the percentage of the order blocks strength. This method provides a more nuanced and statistically robust way of comparing and prioritizing order blocks.
Key features:
Cleaner chart presentation with reasonable distribution of blocks
Volume ratio visualization within each block (bullish vs bearish)
Categorization into High and Balanced blocks for easy identification of significant levels
Relative volume percentage and volume delta display
Advanced ranking system using modified percent rank method for volume comparison
These Order Blocks help traders:
Forecast excellent support or resistance areas
Gain insight into the balance of the market at specific levels
Identify significant market levels at a glance
Visualize market imbalances through volume delta
Prioritize order blocks based on their relative volume importance
Make more informed decisions about potential entry and exit points
⬤ Beluga Profile
The Beluga Profile is a revolutionary market analysis tool that transforms complex market data into a clear, intuitive visual narrative. At its core, it combines a Dual-Profile Analysis, merging Delta Volume Profile with Money Flow Profile to give traders a comprehensive view of market dynamics.
The percentage scale on the left side aren't just numbers; they represent the Levels Strength Percentage, a crucial ranking system that immediately draws your attention to the most significant price zones. Complementing this, a heat map overlay brings these strength levels to life, offering an instant, color-coded representation of where the market's most influential areas lie.
To the right, a detailed breakdown of volume and money flow for each level provides the hard data behind the visual cues. This granular information allows you to dive deep into the market's structure, understanding not just where the significant levels are, but why they matter.
Below the main chart, the Delta Volume Bar serves as a foundation, showing the average delta of the volume profile. This bar is more than just a measure of volume – it's a window into the underlying forces driving price movement. Just above this bar, a macro trend indicator in the form of an arrow offers a quick, clear signal of the overall market direction based on these delta volume calculations.
But the Beluga Profile doesn't just show you what's happening – it helps you understand the 'why' and 'how'. The Adaptive Points of Interest feature allows you to customize your analysis, focusing on the areas that matter most to your trading strategy. You can select from various options including Money Flow, Delta+, Delta-, Volume+, and Level % (Highest), tailoring the display to your specific analytical needs. This flexibility ensures you can focus on the most relevant data for your trading style. Real-time Active Price Tracking ensures you're always in sync with the latest market movements.
All of these elements work in concert, creating a symphony of market information. They empower you to:
Spot key price levels with uncanny precision
Foresee potential market turns before they happen
Grasp the quality and strength of price moves
Adjust your strategy on the fly as market conditions shift
Develop a holistic understanding of market structure and participant behavior
Make informed decisions backed by a clear view of the overall market trend
In essence, the Beluga Profile isn't just a tool – it's your market storyteller, translating the complex language of price, volume, and money flow into a narrative that you can understand and act upon with confidence.
⬤ Smart Money Concepts (SMC)
The Smart Money Concepts component of the toolkit focuses on automatically detecting key market structures crucial in technical analysis. It identifies and visualizes Break of Structure (BOS) and Change of Character (CHOCH) patterns, helping traders spot potential trend reversals and significant market movements. This includes BOS identification when price breaks previous support or resistance and CHOCH detection for potential trend reversals, with automatic detection of both bullish and bearish patterns.
The latest enhancement to this feature adds a new layer of analysis through Delta Volume Calculation. When a BOS or CHOCH is detected, the toolkit calculates the delta volume within the range from the high or low point to the break point. This analysis considers all the candles in this range and determines whether the volume is predominantly bullish, bearish, or neutral.
Bullish Volume: If the delta volume is bullish, a green diamond is plotted at the high or low point, indicating potential upward momentum.
Bearish Volume: If the delta volume is bearish, a red diamond is plotted, suggesting downward pressure.
Neutral Volume: When the volume is neutral, a yellow diamond is displayed, indicating a balance in buying and selling forces.
This visual representation of volume dynamics provides an additional layer of insight, helping traders assess the strength and direction of price movements following a structure break. You can see an example of this on the attached image, where the diamonds clearly indicate the type of volume driving the breakout.
The toolkit also incorporates Fair Value Gap (FVG) Detection. Fair Value Gaps represent inefficiencies in the market, where there is an imbalance between buy and sell orders. These gaps often act as magnets for price, potentially leading to future reversals or continuations when filled. The toolkit identifies and highlights these gaps, allowing traders to recognize areas where the market may seek to rebalance.
Additionally, Double Top and Bottom Pattern Detection has been integrated, identifying potential reversal points at these classic price formations. Double tops signal potential bearish reversals after a price peak, while double bottoms suggest potential bullish reversals after a price dip. These patterns can be crucial indicators for traders looking to capitalize on upcoming trend changes.
Smart Money Concepts help traders:
Identify potential trend reversals early with a clearer view of market structure.
Recognize significant changes in market structure and volume participation.
Differentiate between temporary pullbacks and genuine trend changes using volume insights (color coded diamonds).
Shows Fair Value gaps which helps to identify price momentum and inefficiencies in the market.
This enhancement ensures that traders can not only see structural changes but also understand the volume behind those moves, leading to more informed and confident trading decisions.
⬤ Support and Resistance Levels
This powerful tool is designed to identify key price levels in the market, providing traders with a clear visual representation of potential support and resistance areas. It goes beyond simple level identification by incorporating a sophisticated ranking system and adjustable sensitivity.
The grading system of levels is a unique feature that evaluates the significance of high and low points in the price action. It takes into consideration how many times the price has touched or interacted with specific levels. This means that levels which have been tested multiple times are given higher importance in the ranking. For example, a price level that has acted as support or resistance three times will be ranked higher than a level that has only been touched once.
By leveraging this grading system, traders can focus on the most significant levels that have repeatedly influenced price action, potentially improving the accuracy of their trading decisions and risk management strategies.
This Support and Resistance Levels indicator helps traders:
Identify and prioritize potential reversal points based on their historical significance and frequency of price interaction
Set more accurate entry and exit points aligned with key market levels, focusing on those with higher ranking
Understand the hierarchical structure of market support and resistance, distinguishing between major and minor levels
Plan stop-loss and take-profit levels with greater precision, using the ranking to gauge the strength of each level
Adapt their analysis to varying market strengths and volatilities, with the ability to filter out less significant levels
Recognize recurring price patterns and potential breakout levels based on the ranked historical price interactions
⬤ How to Use the Toolkit
Each of these indicators, while powerful on its own, works synergistically with the others to provide a more complete picture of the market.
The strength of this toolkit lies in its ability to analyze the market from multiple perspectives
Combining these advanced trading indicators into a cohesive toolkit empowers traders with a comprehensive, multi-dimensional view of the market that no single indicator could provide on its own. The market's complexity demands an approach that goes beyond relying on just one aspect, such as price action, volume, or order flow. Integrating these diverse indicators creates a robust analytical framework that captures the market from multiple angles, leading to more accurate insights and better-informed decision-making.

Market Structure Volume Distribution [LuxAlgo]The Market Structure Volume Distribution tool allows traders to identify the strength behind breaks of market structure at defined price ranges to measure de correlation of forces between bulls and bears visually and easily.
🔶 USAGE
This tool has three main features: market structure highlighting, grid levels, and volume profile. Each feature is covered more in depth below:
🔹 Market Structure
The basic unit of market structure is a swing point, the period of the swing point is user-defined, so traders can identify longer-term market structures. Price breaking a prior swing point will confirm the occurrence of a market structure.
The tool will plot a line after a market structure is confirmed, by default the lines on bullish MS will be green (indicative of an uptrend), and red in case of bearish MS (indicative of a downtrend).
🔹 Grid Levels
The Grid visually divides the price range contained inside the tool execution window, into equal size rows, the number of rows is user-defined so users can divide the full price range up to 100 rows.
The main objective of this feature is to help identify the execution window and the limits of each row in the volume profile so traders can know in a simple look what BoMS belongs to each row.
There is however another use for the grid, by dividing the range into equal-sized parts, this feature provides automatic support and resistance levels as good as any other.
Grid provides a visual help to know what our execution window is and to associate MS with their rows in the profile. It can provide S/R levels too.
🔹 Volume Profile
The volume profile feature shows in a visually easy way the volume behind each MS aggregated by rows and divided into buy and sell volume to spot the differences in a simple look.
This tool allows users to spot the liquidity associated with the event of a market structure in a specific price range, allowing users to know which price areas where associated with the most trading activity during the occurrence of a market structutre.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Data Gathering
Execute on all visible range: Activate this to use all visible bars on the calculations. This disables the use of the next parameter "Execute on the last N bars". Default false.
Execute on the last N bars: Use last N bars on the calculations. To use this parameter "Execute on all visible range" must be disabled. Values from 20 to 5000, default 500.
Pivot Length: How many bars will be used to confirm a pivot. The bigger this parameter is the fewer breaks of structure will detect. Values from 1, default 2
🔹 Profile
Profile Rows: Number of rows in the volume profile. Values from 2 to 100, default 10.
Profile Width: Maximum width of the volume profile. Values from 25 to 500, default 200.
Profile Mode: How the volume will be displayed on each row. "TOTAL VOLUME" will aggregate buy & sell volume per row, "BUY&SELL VOLUME" will separate the buy volume from the sell volume on each row. Default BUY&SELL VOLUME.
🔹 Style
Buy Color: This is the color for the buy volume on the profile when the "BUY&SELL VOLUME" mode is activated. Default green.
Sell Color: This is the color for the sell volume on the profile when the "BUY&SELL VOLUME" mode is activated. Default red.
Show dotted grid levels: Show dotted inner grid levels. Default true.
Supply, Demand and Equilibrium Zones, Interactive by DGTSupply, Demand and Equilibrium Zones, Interactive
The law of supply and demand is a theory that explains the interaction between the sellers of an asset and the buyers for that asset. The theory defines the relationship between the price of a given asset and the willingness of traders to either buy or sell it. Generally, as price increases, traders are willing to supply more and demand less and vice versa when the price falls.
Simply said, the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded, and from the seller's perspective, the higher the price, the higher the quantity supplied
Equilibrium zones are the price levels where both selling and buying trading activity is high, both sellers and buyres are interested at that price levels. More correctly, there is a great deal of activity on both the buy and sell side and the market stays at that price level for a great deal of time. Supply and demand are balanced or in equilibrium
Supply and Demand Shifts may occur when institutional investors step in, a change in both price and quantity demanded from one point to another
This experimental study attempts to presend Supply, Demand and Equilibrium Zones by measuring traded volume at all price levels on the market over a specified time period. Then the result is plotted as horizontal zones on the finacial isntrumnet's chart that highlights supply, demand and equilibrium zones at specific price levels
It is important for supply, demand and equilibrium zones to understand that time is always a dimension on charts. The quantity demanded or supplied, found along the horizontal axis, is always measured in traded volume of the asset over a given time interval. Longer or shorter time intervals can influence the levels of supply, demand and equilibrium zones
The study is made interactive, which requires the users to select two points on the chart, by simply clicking on the chart. In case the user would like to view different range then just dragging the vertical lines will be enough
By increasing/decreasing values for supply and demand zones or equilibrium zones, you will either get the zones enlarged or detect supply and demand shifts or other equilibrium zones
It is adviced to use this study in conjuction with a Volume Profile study, such as Volume-Profile-and-Volume-Indicator , Volume-Profile-Custom-Range , Anchored-Volume-Profile , and Price-Action-Support-Resistance , where volume profiles presents trading activities at specific price levels and Supply and Demand Zones can be treated as Value Area (they are not exact same but similar) for Volume Profiles

Delta Profile SpaceManBTCDelta Profile SpaceManBTC
Delta Profile SpaceManBTC, provides 2 very useful functions to tradingview traders with increased statistic for their candles in which case they can use to add confluence to their trading style.
Profile Types:
There are 2 main modes as it stands:
Delta Profile: Comes with the ability to show where buyers and sellers are stepping in more aggressively at which points to show a representation of trapped traders easier and aggression in the market.
Volume Profile: Can be used to do the same but in a more pure volume form, as well as allows for an ease in detecting a momentum shift.
Statistic Types: works with all modes
Ask/Bid Ask bid gives you the pure representation of that data showing at which points buyers stepped in and seller stepped in, no additional calculation on top.
Delta Delta shows the difference between, ie delta, for the ask and bid so its easier to view the difference at loss of the exact values used.
Volume Volume, shows the pure volumetric values no explanation of who buyers and sellers are allowing for a clean view of what is happening in the market with no code functionality applied.
The statistics are not isolated to their desired profile type as this provides the ability to use the volume profile type and delta values and vice versa, allowing users to choose which UI representation they want but which data.
This allows users to get both parts of the picture at any one time!
Using the tick data provided i am able to accurately caclulate the information, however this means for historical data there is none until the script is run for a period of time without stopping.
The tool is a method of providing flow data to the tradingview community, it can allow for good confluences at key levels of interaction E.G., key swing points/S/R points is when its accuracy for trading shines and can give you a good understanding of whats
happening at that time in the market.
Highly recommend dialing the ticksize manually. this provides greater consistency, auto ticksize was made for entry level users to quickly get a feel of the indicator but manually tuning to get the data you require without too much noise is very useful.
TO DO:
Sessions: accounting for Asia,Europe and North America
Tick based candles. e.g number of ticks before a new candle is generated.
Pristine Value Areas & MGIThe Pristine Value Areas indicator enables users to perform comprehensive technical analysis through the lens of the market profile in a fraction of the time! 🏆
A Market Profile is a charting technique devised by J. Peter Steidlmayer, a trader at the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), in the 1980's. He created it to gain a deeper understanding of market behavior and to analyze the auction process in financial markets. A market profile is used to analyze an auction using price, volume, and time to create a distribution-based view of trading activity. It organizes market data into a bell-curve-like structure, which reveals areas of value, balance, and imbalance.
💠 How is a Value Area Calculated?
A value area is a distribution of 68%-70% of the trading volume over a specific time interval, which represents one standard deviation above and below the point of control, which is the most highly traded level over that period.
The key reference points are as follows:
Value area low (VAL) - The lower boundary of a value area
Value area high (VAH) - The upper boundary of a value area
Point of Control (POC) - The price level at which the highest amount of a trading period's volume occurred
If we take the probability distribution of trading activity and flip it 90 degrees, the result is our Pristine Value Area!
Market Profile is our preferred method of technical analysis at Pristine Capital because it provides an objective and repeatable assessment of whether an asset is being accumulated or distributed by institutional investors. Market Profile levels work remarkably well for identifying areas of interest, because so many institutional trading algorithms have been programmed to use these levels since the 1980's!
The benefits of using Market Profile include better trade location, improved risk management, and enhanced market context. It helps traders differentiate between trending and consolidating markets, identify high-probability trade setups, and adjust their strategies based on whether the market is in balance (consolidation) or imbalance (trending). Unlike traditional indicators that rely on past price movements, Market Profile provides real-time insights into trader behavior, giving an edge to those who can interpret its nuances effectively.
Virgin Point of Control (VPOC) - A point of control from a previous time period that has not yet been revisited in subsequent periods. VPOCs are great for identifying prior supply or demand zones.
Below is a great example of price reversing lower after taking out an upside VPOC
💠 Are all POCs Created Equal?
If POCs are used to gauge supply & demand zones at key levels, then a POC with higher volume should be viewed as more significant than a POC that traded lower volume, right? We created Golden POCs as a tool to identify high volume POCs on all timeframes.
Golden POC (GPOC) - A POC that traded the highest volume compared to prior POCs (proprietary to Pristine Capital)
We calculate value areas for the following time intervals based on the user selected timeframe:
5 Minute and 15 Minute Timeframes -> Daily Value Area
The daily value area paints the distribution of the PRIOR session's trading activity. The "d" in the label references for VAHd, POCd and VALd is a visual cue that value area shown is daily.
1 Hour Timeframe -> Weekly Value Area
The weekly value area paints the distribution of the PRIOR week's trading activity. The "w" in the label references for VAHw, POCw and VALw is a visual cue that value area shown is weekly.
1 Day Timeframe -> Monthly Value Area
The monthly value area paints the distribution of the PRIOR month's trading activity. The "m" in the label references for VAHm, POCm and VALm is a visual cue that value area shown is monthly.
1 Week Timeframe -> Yearly Value Area
The yearly value area paints the distribution of the PRIOR year's trading activity. The "y" in the label references for VAHy, POCy and VALy is a visual cue that value area shown is yearly.
💠 What is a developing value area?
The developing value area provides insight into the upcoming value area while it is still forming! It appears when 80% of the way through the current value area. As the end of a trading period approaches, it can make sense to start trading off the developing value area. When the time period flips, the developing value area becomes the active value area!
💠 Value Areas Trading Setups
Two popular market profile concepts are the bullish and bearish 80% rules. The concept is that there is an 80% probability that the market will traverse the entire relevant value area.
Bullish 80% Rule - If a security opens a period below the value area low , and subsequently closes above it, the bullish 80% rule triggers, turning the value area green. One can trade for a move to the top of the value area, using a close below the value area low as a potential stop!
In the below example, HOOD triggered the bullish 80% rule after it reclaimed the monthly value area!
HOOD proceeded to rally through the monthly value area and beyond in subsequent trading sessions. Finding the first stocks to trigger the bullish 80% rule after a market correction is key for spotting the next market leaders!
Bearish 80% Rule - If a security opens a period above the value area high , and subsequently closes below it, the bearish 80% rule triggers, turning the value area red. One can trade for a move to the bottom of the value area, using a close above the value area high as a potential stop!
ES proceeded to follow through and test the value area low before trending below the weekly value area
Value Area Breakouts - When a security is inside of value, the auction is in balance. When it breaks out from a value area, it could be entering a period of price discovery. One can trade these breaks out of value with tight risk control by setting a stop inside the value area! These breakouts can be traded on all chart timeframes depending on the timeframe of the individual trader. Combining multiple timeframes can result in even more effective trading setups.
RBLX broke out from the monthly value area on 4/22/25👇
RBLX proceeded to rally +62.78% in 39 trading sessions following the monthly VAH breakout!
💠 Market Generated Information to Improve Your Situational Awareness!
In addition to the value areas, we've also included stat tables with useful market generated information. The stats displayed vary based on the timeframe the user has up on their screen. This incentivizes traders to check the chart on multiple timeframes before taking a trade!
Metrics Grouped By Use Case
Performance
▪ YTD α - YTD Alpha (α) measures the risk-adjusted, excess return of a security over its user defined benchmark, on a year-to-date basis.
▪ MTD α - MTD Alpha (α) measures the risk-adjusted, excess return of a security over its user defined benchmark, on a month-to-date basis.
▪ WTD α - WTD Alpha (α) measures the risk-adjusted, excess return of a security over its user defined benchmark, on a week-to-date basis.
▪ YTD %Δ - Year-to-date percent change in price
▪ MTD %Δ - Month-to-date percent change in price
▪ WTD %Δ - Week-to-date percent change in price
Volatility
▪ ATR % - The Average True Range (ATR) expressed as a percentage of an asset's price.
▪ Beta - Measures the price volatility of a security compared to the S&P 500 over the prior 5 years (since inception if 5 years of data is not available)
Risk Analysis
▪ LODx - Low-of-day extension - ATR % multiple from the low of day (measures how extended a stock is from its low of day)
▪ MAx - Moving average extension - ATR % multiple from the user-defined moving average (measures how extended a security is from its moving average). Default moving average = 50D SMA
Why does MAx matter?
MAx measures the number of ATR % multiples a security is trading away from a key moving average. The default moving average length is 50 days.
MAx can be used to identify mean reversion trades . When a security trends strongly in one direction and moves significantly above or below its moving average, the price often tends to revert back toward the average.
Example, if the ATR % of the security is 5%, and the stock is trading 50% higher than the 50D SMA, the MAx would be 50%/5% = 10. A user might opt to take a countertrend trade when the MAx exceeds a predetermined level.
The MAx can also be useful when trading breakouts above or below the key moving average of your choosing. The lower the MAx, the tighter stop loss one can take if trading against that level.

💠 Trend Analysis
The Trend Analysis section consists of short-term and long-term stage analysis data as well as the value area timeframe and price in relation to the value area.
Stage Analysis
▪ ST ⇅ - Short-term stage analysis indicator
▪ LT ⇅ - Long-term stage analysis indicator
Short-term and long-term stage analysis data is provided in the two rightmost columns of each table. The columns are labeled ST ⇅ and LT ⇅.
Why is Stage Analysis important? Popularized by Stan Weinstein, stage analysis is a trend following system that classifies assets into four stages based on price-trend analysis.
The problem? The interpretation of stage analysis is highly subjective. Based on the methodology provided in Stan Weinstein’s books, five different traders could look at the same chart, and come to different conclusions as to which stage the security is in!
We solved for this by creating our own methodology for classifying stocks into stages using moving averages. This indicator automates that analysis, and produces short-term and long-term trend signals based on user-defined key moving averages. You won’t find this in any textbook or course, because it’s completely unique to the Pristine trading methodology.
Our indicator calculates a short-term trend signal using two moving averages; a fast moving average, and a slow moving average. We default to the 10D EMA as the fast moving average & the 20D SMA as the slow moving average. A trend signal is generated based on where price is currently trading with respect to the fast moving average and the slow moving average. We use the signal to guide shorter-term swing trades.
In general, we want to take long trades in stocks with strengthening trends, and short trades in stocks with weakening trends. The user is free to change the moving averages based on their own short-term timeframe. Every trader is unique!
The same process is applied to calculate the long-term trend signal. We default to the 50D SMA as our fast moving average, and the 200D SMA as the slow moving average for the LT ⇅ signal calculation, but users can change these to fit their own unique trading style.
What is Stage 1?
Stage 1 identifies stocks that transitioned from downtrends, into bottoming bases.
Stage 1A - Bottom Signal: Marks the first day a security shows initial signs of recovery after a downtrend, with early indications of strength emerging.👇
Stage 1B - Bottoming Process: Identifies the ongoing phase where the security continues to stabilize and strengthen, confirming the base-building process after the initial signal.👇
Stage 1R - Failed Uptrend: Detects when a security that had entered an early uptrend loses momentum and slips back into a bottoming phase, signaling a failed breakout.👇
What is Stage 2?
Stage 2 identifies stocks that transitioned from bottoming bases to uptrends.
Stage 2A - Breakout: Marks the first day a security decisively breaks out, signaling the start of a new uptrend.👇
Stage 2B - Uptrend: Identifies when the security continues to trade in an established uptrend following the initial breakout, with momentum building but not yet showing full strength.👇
Stage 2C - Strong Uptrend: Detects when the uptrend strengthens further, with the security displaying clear signs of accelerating strength and buying pressure.👇
Stage 2R - Failed Breakdown: Detects when a security that had recently entered a corrective phase reverses course and reclaims its upward trajectory, moving back into an uptrend.👇
What is Stage 3?
Stage 3 identifies stocks that transitioned from uptrends to topping bases.
Stage 3A - Top Signal: Marks the first day a security shows initial signs of weakness after an uptrend, indicating the start of a potential topping phase.👇
Stage 3B - Topping Process: Identifies the period following the initial signal when the security continues to show signs of distribution and potential trend exhaustion.👇
Stage 3R - Failed Breakdown: Detects when a security that had entered a deeper corrective phase reverses upward, recovering enough strength to re-enter the topping phase.👇
What is Stage 4?
Stage 4 identifies stocks that transitioned from topping bases to downtrends.
Stage 4A - Breakdown: Marks the first day a security decisively breaks below key support levels, signaling the start of a new downward trend.👇
Stage 4B - Downtrend: Identifies when the security continues to trend lower following the initial breakdown, with sustained bearish momentum, though not yet fully entrenched.👇
Stage 4C - Strong Downtrend: Detects when the downtrend intensifies, with the security displaying clear signs of accelerating weakness and selling pressure.👇
Stage 4R - Failed Bottom: Detects when a security that had begun to show early signs of bottoming reverses course and resumes its decline, falling back into a downtrend.👇
Stage N/A - Recent IPO: Applies to stocks that recently IPO’ed and don’t have enough data to calculate all necessary moving averages.
Value Area
In Trend Analysis, the value area information is helpful to gauge price in relation to the value area.
▪ VA(y) - Categorizes the security based on the relation of price to the yearly value area
▪ VA(m) - Categorizes the security based on the relation of price to the monthly value area
▪ VA(w) - Categorizes the security based on the relation of price to the weekly value area
Value area states:
▪ ABOVE = Price above the value area high
▪ BELOW = Price below the value area low
▪ INSIDE = Price inside the value area
▪ Bull 80% = Bullish 80% rule in effect
▪ Bear 80% rule = Bearish 80% rule in effect
For example, in the chart above, VA(m) - ABOVE indicates a monthly value area and price is above the VAH.
💠 What Makes This Indicator Unique
There are many value area indicators, however...
Value Area
▪ Golden POC (GPOC) - This is a proprietary concept.
▪ Unique Label Customization
Pristine value areas often comprehensive and unique label customizations. Styles include options to display any combination of the following on your labels:
• Price levels associated with market profile levels

On the weekly timeframe the focus is the bigger picture and the metrics reflect this perspective. Performance data includes YTD Alpha and YTD percent change in price. Volatility is measured using ATR % and the industry standard beta. Trend analysis for this higher timeframe include the 52-week range, which measures where a security is trading in relation to its 52wk high and 52wk low. Also included is the where price is in relation to yearly value area.
▪ Daily Timeframe
As one drills down to the daily timeframe, the performance metrics include MTD alpha and MTD percent change in price.
Risk analysis includes the low-of-day extension (LODx), which is the ATR % multiple from the low of the day, to measures how extended a stock is from its low of day. In addition, the moving average extension (MAx) is the ATR % multiple from the user-defined moving average, measures how extended a security is from its
moving average. The default moving average is the 50D SMA, however this can be customized in Settings.
Trend Analysis on the daily timeframe includes the Pristine Capital methodology for classifying stocks into stages using moving averages. Both short-term and long-term stage analysis data is included. Finally, price in relation to monthly value area is shown.
▪ Hourly Timeframe
An the hourly timeframe, performance metrics include WTD alpha and WTD percent change in price. Trend analysis includes the daily closing range (DCR) and price in relation to weekly value area.

Quantum Volume Point of Control (VPOC)Many forex traders are familiar with the concepts of volume price analysis as enshrined in Wyckoff’s three laws of effort and result, cause and effect and supply and demand. This is the linear relationship between volume and price. Now with the Volume Point of Control, this relationship is taken to the next level adding the concept of time and inspired by the ideas behind market profile.
The Quantum Volume Point of Control, or VPOC indicator blends ALL THREE of these important aspects of trading into a single powerful and visual indicator.
The Quantum VPOC indicator takes the analysis of volume and price to a higher level, which both complements and expands the VPA relationship. Whilst the Quantum tick volumes indicator considers the relationship between a single volume bar and its associated candle on the price time x-axis or groups of candles and volume bars, the Quantum VPOC indicator analyses the density and intensity of volume over time against price. In other words, the volume price relationship on the y axis. It does this in three distinct ways as follows:
First, the Quantum VPOC indicator constructs the Volume Profile from a set number of bars in history to the most current bar. The Volume Profile is then presented as a vertical histogram shown at the right edge of the chart – a stack of horizontal bars of varying lengths, but of equal height representing the amount of activity at each price level.
Second, the Quantum VPOC analyzes the Volume Profile to find the key price levels where activity is strong and rising, or weak and falling. In other words, the indicator looks for peaks (long bars) of the Volume Profile where price tends to be attracted as these are areas where price was previously accepted. These are called High Volume Nodes (HVN). The indicator also looks for troughs or valleys (short bars) of the Volume Profile where price tends to be repelled as these are areas where price was previously rejected. These are referred to as Low Volume Nodes (LVN). Both types of price level act as precise zones of support and resistance and as such are projected across the chart within the given period.
Third, the Quantum VPOC indicator looks for the Highest Volume Node or the highest peak in the Volume Profile and marks it as the Volume Point of Control – the price level which acts as the fulcrum from which price pivots. The indicator completes its calculations and updates as each new volume bar is delivered.
The result is a chart revealing the overarching influence of volume at price, coupled with time.
The Quantum VPOC indicator displays several key pieces of information on the chart as follows:
- Volume Profile – this appears as a histogram of volume on the vertical price axis on the right-hand side of the chart. The peaks and troughs are clearly displayed highlighting both High and Low Volume nodes.
- High volume node (HVN) – this is where we have a bulge in the volume profile generally because of an extended phase of price congestion. As a result, as the market approaches these regions on the chart price action is likely to become waterlogged with further congestion likely with the node acting as a strong area of support or resistance. As we have seen a strong acceptance of price at this level in the past, this is likely to be repeated with the market swinging in a range. Ultimately the market may reverse off these levels, with any move through then confirming the current sentiment.
- Low volume node (LVN) – this is where we see low volume in the volume profile. In these regions, the market has only paused temporarily – in other words a region where price has been rejected in the past. As such we are likely to see the market move quickly through these regions with little in the way of resistance or support acting to prevent a further advance of decline in price. The current sentiment is likely to continue and build quickly through these levels.
- Support and Resistance Zones – these are drawn at the High and Low Volume nodes to highlight the various HVN and LVN levels on the price axis.
- Volume Point of Control Line – this is drawn as a single line on the highest volume of the High Volume Node in the timeframe and clearly defines the tipping point of sentiment. This moves dynamically and represents the fulcrum of market sentiment where price has reached agreement, before moving on. If it is above the price action, then the current market sentiment is bearish. If it is below the current price action, then the current market sentiment is bullish. The VPOC Line reveals this balance simply, quickly, and clearly allowing you to judge market sentiment with accuracy and confidence.
As with all the Quantum Trading indicators, the VPOC indicator is dynamic, constantly changing and updating to reflect the relentless shift in sentiment as the market moves from bullish to bearish and back again. The indicator works in all timeframes and provides a powerful and much deeper understanding of support and resistance through the prism of volume and the associated High and Low Volume Nodes, with the Point of Control itself, acting as the fulcrum of the market.

Pivot Point Profile [LuxAlgo]The Pivot Point Profile indicator groups and displays data accumulated from previous pivot points, providing a comprehensive method for prioritizing and displaying areas of interest directly given by swing highs and lows.
Users have access to common settings present in other profile-type indicators.
🔶 USAGE
The Pivot Point Profile is particularly helpful in identifying highly active reversal zones that have been visited multiple times by price. Because of this, we could generally expect these areas to serve as future points of interest, often acting as support or resistance when re-visited.
The profile displays data associated with both Pivot Highs and Pivot Lows. Each row consists of pivot high and pivot low counts side-by-side, forming the total width of the row.
By analyzing the row as a whole, we can gain a better understanding of WHERE to look for interactions.
By analyzing the pivot counts independently, we can gain a better understanding of WHAT to expect when returning to these areas.
For example:
If a row in the profile contains entirely Pivot Lows, this could be seen as an indication to look for buyers to hold that level for a continuation upwards. A break of this level could be interpreted as a lack of interest from previous buyers at this level, indicating a further move down.
🔹 Concentrated Areas
Each row in the profile displays the current count of high pivots and low pivots within the selected lookback. The largest count for each pivot direction is identified as a "Concentrated Area (CA)", these CAs are highlighted over the chart with a line displaying the average of all pivots within that CA. The CA Average is the average of all pivot points (in the majority direction) within the given row.
These can hold more importance as potential support/resistance areas.
Note: The CA Threshold can be manually adjusted to highlight all rows based on a user-selected value.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Calculation
The idea behind the Pivot Point Profile is a new analysis method for pivot points, taking the idea of a volume profile and adapting it to display pivot points instead of volume. By using this data, in theory, we should be able to better prioritize zones to anticipate reversals, as well as identify key levels to watch for buyer & seller interactions to use as confirmations in direction.
The (vertical) width of each row is the product of the script's "Row Size", this is the number of rows that the profile will consist of. With a max of 250, the profile can be decently granular. That being said, A more granular profile will have fewer overlapping pivot points. By decreasing the row size (Using fewer rows in the profile) you will increase the tolerance for grouping pivot points. Potentially leading to a more comprehensive Profile. Inversely, By reducing the tolerance for grouping, you will better visualize only similar highs and lows but may have noisier data to sift through.
The Profile is calculated based on a "Lookback" parameter, using only the lookback amount of previous high and low pivots to calculate the profile. Configuring this parameter alongside "Pivot Length", will allow for great control over the frame of reference of the profile.
Note: This indicator is capable of utilizing the full chart history of pivot points, this can be done by enabling the "Use Full Chart History" setting, this will cause the script will calculate from everything it has access to on your current chart.
🔹 Display
The Pivot Point Profile display can be customized to fit a various range of chart styles and visual needs. The specific settings to adjust these can be located in the "Profile Display" Section of the User Inputs.
Profile Width: Sets the Left to Right Width of the Profile. This is the maximum width that the profile will occupy and will scale to fit within this width.
Profile Offset: Sets the distance of the Profile's Axis from the current chart candle. This moves the entire profile left and right to enable to user to set the distance between the profile and the current candle.
Direction: Changes the display direction of the profile, allowing for "Left", "Right", or "Center" display styles.
🔶 SETTINGS

Volume Profile displays a vertical histogram on the right side of the price chart, representing the volume traded at each price level. The length of each bar corresponds to the total volume traded at that particular price level. Traders can analyze the shape and distribution of the Volume Profile to gain valuable information about the market structure.
Here's how Volume Profile is used and applied in trading:
Identifying Areas of High Volume:
Volume Profile helps traders identify areas of high trading activity. Peaks in the Volume Profile histogram indicate price levels where significant buying or selling pressure was present. These areas can act as support or resistance levels in the future, as they represent levels where traders have previously shown interest.
Understanding Price Acceptance and Rejection:
Volume Profile assists in determining whether the market has accepted or rejected specific price levels. When the volume is higher at a particular price level, it suggests that traders have accepted that price and consider it fair. On the other hand, low volume at a price level indicates rejection, suggesting that traders are not willing to transact at that price.
Identifying Value Areas:
Volume Profile can help identify value areas, which are price regions where the most volume has been traded. These areas are considered significant as they reflect levels where the market has found fair value and attracted substantial trading activity. Traders often pay attention to these value areas as potential support or resistance zones.
Confirming Breakouts and Reversals:
Volume Profile can be used to confirm the validity of breakouts and reversals. If a price breaks out of a range with high volume, it suggests strong conviction and increases the likelihood of a sustained move. Similarly, if a price reverses near a high-volume area, it provides additional confirmation of a potential trend reversal.
Assessing Market Sentiment:
By analyzing the shape and structure of the Volume Profile, traders can gain insights into market sentiment. A balanced Volume Profile with volume evenly distributed across price levels indicates a neutral market. Skewed or asymmetrical Volume Profiles may suggest bullish or bearish sentiment, depending on where the volume is concentrated.
It's important to note that traders often combine Volume Profile with price patterns, trendlines, and momentum indicators to validate signals and develop a comprehensive understanding of the market.
By studying the Volume Profile, traders can gain a clearer picture of where significant trading activity has occurred and identify levels of potential support, resistance, and value. This information can assist in making more informed trading decisions and improving overall market analysis.

VWAP(Volume Weighted Average Price) is a technical analysis tool that calculates the average price weighted by trading volume over a specified time period. It provides traders with insights into the average price at which a particular asset has traded during a given period, considering the volume traded at each price level.
Here's a general explanation of VWAP and its application in trading:
Calculation of VWAP:
VWAP is calculated by multiplying the price of each trade by its corresponding volume, summing these values over a specific time period, and dividing the total by the cumulative volume. The calculation continuously updates as new trades occur within the specified time frame.
Interpretation of VWAP:
VWAP is primarily used as a reference point to assess whether a current price is relatively high or low compared to the average price weighted by volume. Traders compare the current price to the VWAP to gauge whether the price is trading above or below the average level. If the price is above VWAP, it suggests that the asset is trading at a premium, while a price below VWAP indicates a discount.
VWAP as a Trading Indicator:
Traders use VWAP in various ways to support their trading decisions. Here are a few common applications:
a. Trend Identification: Traders analyze the relationship between the current price and VWAP to identify the prevailing market trend. If the price consistently trades above VWAP, it is often seen as a bullish signal, while prices below the VWAP is considered a bearish signal. This approach helps traders align their trades with the overall market direction.
b. Support and Resistance Levels: VWAP can act as a dynamic support or resistance level. Traders observe how the price reacts when approaching the VWAP. If the price bounces off the VWAP and continues in the direction of the prevailing trend, it may indicate support or resistance. Traders can use the VWAP as a reference for setting stop-loss levels or determining potential entry or exit points.
c. Reversal Signals: In some cases, when the price deviates significantly from VWAP, it may indicate overbought or oversold conditions. Traders watch for price reversals when the price moves away from the VWAP, potentially signaling a short-term market reversal.
d. Volume Analysis: VWAP considers volume along with price, providing insights into the significance of price moves. Traders analyze the relationship between volume and VWAP to evaluate the strength of price movements. Higher volume trading near the VWAP may suggest increased market interest and potential continuation of the trend.
It's worth noting that the VWAP is often used in intra-day trading and is more relevant for short-term analysis. Traders typically adjust the VWAP time frame based on their trading style and the asset being analyzed.

The Zig Zag works by filtering out price movements below a certain threshold (percentage or points) and only displaying significant price changes. This helps to eliminate minor price fluctuations and focus on the more substantial market movements.
When applying the Zig Zag indicator, traders typically select a percentage or point value as the threshold. For example, if a 5% threshold is chosen, the Zig Zag indicator will only plot a new point when the price has moved up or down by at least 5% from the previous significant high or low.
The indicator plots lines connecting the significant highs and lows on the price chart, creating a zigzag pattern. The lines are drawn in a way that reflects the change in the trend direction. The indicator can be adjusted to suit different timeframes and trading styles.
The primary purpose of the Zig Zag indicator is to identify and highlight trend reversals and price swings. Traders often use it to:
Identify major turning points: The Zig Zag indicator helps traders spot major highs and lows in the price action. These levels can act as potential support or resistance areas for future price movements.
Filter out noise: By filtering out minor price fluctuations, the Zig Zag indicator helps traders focus on the more significant price moves and trends. This can provide a clearer picture of the overall market direction.
Confirm chart patterns: The Zig Zag indicator can be used to confirm the validity of chart patterns, such as trendlines, channels, or chart formations. It can help traders validate breakouts, pullbacks, or continuation patterns.
Set trailing stops: Traders may use the Zig Zag indicator to set trailing stops based on the significant swing highs and lows. This allows them to trail their stop-loss orders behind the price action and potentially lock in profits as the trend develops.
Additionally, it's essential to customize the settings of the Zig Zag indicator according to the specific market being analyzed, as different markets and timeframes may require different threshold values for optimal performance.
Please keep in mind that while the Zig Zag indicator can provide valuable insights, it should be used alongside other analysis tools and not solely relied upon for trading decisions.

Fibonacci extensions and retracements are both technical analysis tools that traders use to identify potential levels of support and resistance in financial markets. Here's a clear understanding of each concept and how they are used in trading:
1. Fibonacci Retracement:
Fibonacci retracement is based on the idea that after an upward or downward price movement, the price tends to retrace a portion of that move before continuing in the original direction. The key levels used in Fibonacci retracement are based on ratios derived from the Fibonacci sequence, such as 0.382 (38.2%), 0.500 (50%), and 0.618 (61.8%).
To apply Fibonacci retracements, traders typically select two significant points on a price chart: a swing high and a swing low. The retracement levels are then plotted as horizontal lines based on the Fibonacci ratios. These levels act as potential support (in an uptrend) or resistance (in a downtrend) where the price may reverse or consolidate before resuming the overall trend.
Traders often use Fibonacci retracement levels to identify potential entry or exit points, place stop-loss orders, or assess the strength of a trend. The most commonly used retracement levels are 38.2%, 50%, and 61.8%, but other Fibonacci ratios like 23.6% and 78.6% are also sometimes used.
2. Fibonacci Extension:
Fibonacci extension is used to identify potential price targets beyond the initial trend or price move. It helps traders determine where the price may reach once it surpasses the previous swing high or swing low.
Similar to Fibonacci retracement, Fibonacci extension levels are derived from the Fibonacci sequence. The most commonly used extension levels are 138.2%, 161.8%, 261.8%, and 423.6%, although other ratios can also be applied.
To use Fibonacci extension, traders select three points on a price chart: a swing low, a swing high (corresponding to the previous trend), and a subsequent swing low or swing high (from where the extension is projected). The extension levels are then projected beyond the swing high or swing low, acting as potential price targets or areas of interest.
Fibonacci extension levels are often used to determine potential profit targets or to identify areas where a trend may reverse or consolidate. Traders may also use extensions in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to confirm trade signals or assess the overall market structure

The Pitchfan tool is based on the concept of Andrew's Pitchfork, which is a popular technical analysis tool developed by Dr. Alan H. Andrews. It consists of three parallel trendlines that are drawn to encompass the price action of an asset. The trendlines are typically drawn by connecting three significant points on a price chart - usually a pivot high, a pivot low, and another pivot high.
Once the Pitchfork is plotted, the Pitchfan tool extends the concept by adding additional trendlines that are parallel to the original Pitchfork. These additional trendlines are drawn based on certain mathematical ratios (e.g., Fibonacci ratios) applied to the distance between the original trendlines.
The Pitchfan can be used to identify potential support and resistance levels, as well as potential areas for price reversal or continuation. Traders may look for price reactions near these trendlines, with the expectation that the price may find support or encounter resistance at these levels.
---
Higher timeframe opens refer to the opening prices of different sessions or timeframes above the one being currently analyzed. For example, in intra-day trading, higher timeframe opens can refer to the daily session open or the opening prices of other significant market sessions in the forex market.
In addition to higher timeframe opens, traders often utilize daily reference ranges by incorporating indicators such as Average True Range (ATR) and the previous day's range. These tools help traders gauge the potential price volatility for the day and establish reference levels for stop-loss orders, profit targets, overall risk management strategies and market knowledge to develop a comprehensive trading approach.

Volume Range Map [BigBeluga]This volume-based tool identifies the highest and lowest price extremes within a lookback period and constructs two dynamic range zones. Each zone is filled with horizontal volume profiles that visualize the distribution of traded volume across price bins, helping traders pinpoint key areas of accumulation and distribution.
🔵Key Features:
Dynamic High/Low Zones:
➣ Automatically detects the highest and lowest price levels within a custom lookback window.
➣ Draws two shaded zones: one near the high and one near the low, representing potential supply and demand areas.
Volume Profiles per Zone:
➣ Each zone is filled with a volume profile histogram divided into bins.
➣ The length of each horizontal bar represents the relative volume traded at that price level.
➣ Bins collectively account for 100% of the zone’s volume.
POC Highlighting:
➣ The price bin with the highest volume is marked as the Point of Control (POC), along with a label showing its share of total volume in percentage.
➣ A dashed line is drawn at the middle level of the zone.
Customizable Display:
➣ Traders can adjust the number of bins, zone width, and toggle midline visibility to match their strategy needs.
➣ Colors of upper and lower volume zones are fully customizable.
🔵Usage:
Supply/Demand Analysis: Use upper/lower volume zones to find key reversal or continuation areas where market participants were most active.
Volume Confirmation: Confirm breakout or rejection trades by watching how price reacts to high-volume areas inside each zone.
POC Strategy: Treat POC levels as magnet zones — price tends to revisit them due to high liquidity.
Trade Planning: Use volume-weighted levels instead of raw price action to plan entries, stop-losses, and targets.
Volume Range Map offers a clean and powerful way to analyze volume distribution at price extremes. By combining precise volume histograms, POC highlights, and adaptive zone drawing, it brings market structure into sharper focus for range and breakout traders alike.

Dollar Volume DivergenceOverview
The Dollar Volume Profile and Divergence Indicator is a comprehensive tool designed to analyze both standard volume and dollar volume activity in the market. It visualizes dollar volume (calculated as close * volume) and highlights divergences between dollar volume and standard volume, providing insights into underlying market dynamics that aren't immediately visible with traditional volume analysis.
Key Features
Dollar Volume Profile:
Plots dollar volume as a histogram.
Highlights high-dollar volume bars in green (indicating significant trading activity).
Includes an optional average dollar volume line to show trends over time.
Volume-Divergence Analysis:
Calculates the difference (divergence) between dollar volume and standard volume.
Displays positive divergence (dollar volume > standard volume) in green and negative divergence (dollar volume < standard volume) in red.
Supports both histogram and boolean point visualization for divergence, offering flexibility in how the data is displayed.
Customizable Visualization:
Users can toggle between a Histogram or Boolean Points for divergence visualization.
Option to enable or disable the dollar volume profile and its average line.

Depth of Market (DOM) [LuxAlgo]The Depth Of Market (DOM) tool allows traders to look under the hood of any market, taking price and volume analysis to the next level. The following features are included: DOM, Time & Sales, Volume Profile, Depth of Market, Imbalances, Buying Pressure, and up to 24 key intraday levels (it really packs a punch).
As a disclaimer, this tool does not use tick data, it is a DOM reconstruction from the provided real-time time series data (price and volume). So the volume you see is from filled orders only, this tool does not show unfilled limit orders.
Traders can enable or disable any of the features at will to avoid being overwhelmed with too much information and to make the tool perform faster.
The features that have the biggest impact on performance are Historical Data Collection, Key Levels (POC & VWAP), Time & Sales, Profile, and Imbalances. Disable these features to improve the indicator computational performance.
🔶 DOM
This is the simplest form of the tool, a simple DOM or ladder that displays the following columns:
PRICE: Price level
BID: Total number of market sell orders filled or limit buy orders filled.
SELL: Sell market orders
BUY: Buy market orders
ASK: Total number of market buy orders filled or limit sell orders filled.
The DOM only collects historical data from the last 24 hours and real-time data.
Traders can select a reset period for the DOM with two options:
DAILY: Resets at the beginning of each trading day
SESSIONS: Resets twice, as DAILY and 15.5 hours later, to coincide with the start of the RTH session for US tickers.
The DOM has two main modes, it can display price levels as ticks or points. The default is automatic based on the current daily volatility, but traders can manually force one mode or the other if they wish.
For convenience, traders have the option to set the number of lines (price levels), and the size of the text and to display only real-time data.
By default, the top price is set to 0 so that the DOM automatically adjusts the price levels to be displayed, but traders can set the top price manually so that the tool displays only the desired price levels in a fixed manner.
🔹 Volume Profile
As additional features to the basic DOM, traders have access to the volume profile histogram and the total volume per price level.
This helps traders identify at a glance key price areas where volume is accumulating (high volume nodes) or areas where volume is lacking (low volume nodes) - these areas are important to some traders who base their decision-making process on them.
🔹 Imbalances
Other added features are imbalances and buying pressure:
Interlevel Imbalance: volume delta between two different price levels
Intralevel Imbalance: delta between buy and sell volume at the same price level
Buying Pressure Percent: percentage of buy volume compared to total volume
Imbalances can help traders identify areas of interest in the price for possible support or resistance.
🔹 Depth
Depth allows traders to see at a glance how much supply is above the current price level or how much demand is below the current price level.
Above the current price level shows the cumulative ask volume (filled sell limit orders) and below the current price level shows the cumulative bid volume (filled buy limit orders).
🔶 KEY LEVELS
The tool includes up to 24 different key intraday levels of particular relevance:
Previous Week Levels
PWH: Previous week high
PWL: Previous week low
PWM: Previous week middle
PWS: Previous week settlement (close)
Previous Day Levels
PDH: Previous day high
PDL: Previous day low
PDM: Previous day middle
PDS: Previous day settlement (close)
Current Day Levels
OPEN: Open of day (or session)
HOD: High of day (or session)
LOD: Low of day (or session)
MOD: Middle of day (or session)
Opening Range
ORH: Open range high
ORL: Open range low
Initial Balance
IBH: Initial balance high
IBL: Initial balance low
VWAP
+3SD: Volume weighted average price plus 3 standard deviations
+2SD: Volume weighted average price plus 2 standard deviations
+1SD: Volume weighted average price plus 1 standard deviation
VWAP: Volume weighted average price
-1SD: Volume weighted average price minus 1 standard deviation
-2SD: Volume weighted average price minus 2 standard deviations
-3SD: Volume weighted average price minus 3 standard deviations
POC: Point of control
Different traders look at different levels, the key levels shown here are objective and specific areas of interest that traders can act on, providing us with potential areas of support or resistance in the price.
🔶 TIME & SALES
The tool also features a full-time and sales panel with time, price, and size columns, a size filter, and the ability to set the timezone to display time in the trader's local time.
The information shown here is what feeds the DOM and it can be useful in several ways, for example in detecting absorption. If a large number of orders are coming into the market but the price is barely moving, this indicates that there is enough liquidity at these levels to absorb all these orders, so if these orders stop coming into the market, the price may turn around.
🔶 SETTINGS
Period: Select the anchoring period to start data collection, DAILY will anchor at the start of the trading day, and SESSIONS will start as DAILY and 15.5 hours later (RTH for US tickers).
Mode: Select between AUTO and MANUAL modes for displaying TICKS or POINTS, in AUTO mode the tool will automatically select TICKS for tickers with a daily average volatility below 5000 ticks and POINTS for the rest of the tickers.
Rows: Select the number of price levels to display
Text Size: Select the text size
🔹 DOM
DOM: Enable/Disable DOM display
Realtime only: Enable/Disable real-time data only, historical data will be collected if disabled
Top Price: Specify the price to be displayed on the top row, set to 0 to enable dynamic DOM
Max updates: Specify how many times the values on the SELL and BUY columns are accumulated until reset.
Profile/Depth size: Maximum size of the histograms on the PROFILE and DEPTH columns.
Profile: Enable/Disable Profile column. High impact on performance.
Volume: Enable/Disable Volume column. Total volume traded at price level.
Interlevel Imbalance: Enable/Disable Interlevel Imbalance column. Total volume delta between the current price level and the price level above. High impact on performance.
Depth: Enable/Disable Depth, showing the cumulative supply above the current price and the cumulative demand below. Impact on performance.
Intralevel Imbalance: Enable/Disable Intralevel Imbalance column. Delta between total buy volume and total sell volume. High impact on performance.
Buying Pressure Percent: Enable/Disable Buy Percent column. Percentage of total buy volume compared to total volume.
Imbalance Threshold %: Threshold for highlighting imbalances. Set to 90 to highlight the top 10% of interlevel imbalances and the top and bottom 10% of intra-level imbalances.
Crypto volume precision: Specify the number of decimals to display on the volume of crypto assets
🔹 Key Levels
Key Levels: Enable/Disable KEY column. Very high performance impact.
Previous Week: Enable/Disable High, Low, Middle, and Close of the previous trading week.
Previous Day: Enable/Disable High, Low, Middle, and Settlement of the previous trading day.

TwV Multi-timeframe Dynamic VRVPMulti-timeframe Dynamic Visible Range Volume Profile
The volume profile is an indicator that displays trading activity over a specified period and plots a histogram on the chart which reveals dominant and significant price levels based on volume and in essence gives a clear indication of Supply or demand at a certain price rather than volume in a certain period.
What makes this VRVP indicator different from other is that it is multi-timeframe and dynamic, meaning that it has the ability to show the POC for a higher timeframe and that it also recalculates the main POC every single time traders adjust the chart.
Most VRVP need to be adjusted to a fixed position for the Main POC, I made an improvement by giving the indicator the ability to identify the bars that are being look at in the screen, this really gives traders the possibility and agility to identify potential support and resistance areas without the need to be changing any settings on the indicator.
Furthermore, giving the ability to the indicator to be multi-timeframe allows traders not only to work with a point of control in one timeframe, but also have a dashed line plotting the Point of Control of a HIGHER timeframe, which could potentially be a strongest support or resistance. The multi-timeframe point of control is fixed only.
This VRVP is completely similar to the official Trading View paid subscription one.
Fundamentals
Point of Control (POC): The price level for the time period with the highest traded volume. The POC is represented by an amber line within the indicator.
Profile High: The highest reached price level during the specified time period
Profile Low: The lowest reached price level during the specified time period.
Value Area (VA): The range of price levels in which a specified percentage of all volume was traded during the time period. Typically, this percentage is set to 70% however it is up to the trader’s discretion.
Value Area High (VAH): The highest price level within the value area.
Value Area Low (VAL): The lowest price level within the value area.
Usage
The Resistance and Support levels can be provided by the Volume profile using a reactive method so they constantly change with price action and give a clearer picture to predict future price movements. The Reactive method relies on past price movements at certain price levels and applies a more significant understanding of price reaction at certain meaningful levels
Support levels will be areas where price will be supported on the way down.
Resistance levels will be areas that resist price on the way up.
A basic understanding of this is that Buyers will enter the market at the bottom of a profile and sellers will enter the market at the top of the profile.
Configuration
By the default the indicator has enabled plotting the charts timeframe Volume Profile.
Multi-timeframe option needs to be enabled and desired timeframe chosen from selector menu.
Bars back value for fixed calculation of the multi-timeframe point of control.
Traders can adjust default settings as follows:
Charts timeframe VRVP
Main POC color – Yellow
Positive Volume – Green
Negative Volume – Red
VRVP Width – 100 (Refers to the plotting width for better suiting on small screens)
Multi timeframe VRVP
Enable or disable calculations
Bars back - Fixed numbers of bars for calculation (Consider that max bars back limit is 5000, but it considers 5000 bars on the current charts timeframe, therefore traders need to take into consideration converting number of bars in higher timeframe to charts timeframe)
e.g.
Charts timeframe 15m – MTF desired 1H
1H = 60 min 15m = 15 min – 100 bars back equivalent to (60 min * 100) / 15 = 400
Lower than 5000 then calculations takes place, otherwise calculations will be disabled.
Multi-timeframe POC color = Light blue DASHED
Timeframe desired – 1H by default
Summary box
Enable or disable box
Box shows information regarding the exact price where Main POC and MTF POC reside
Table Size for better fitting on mobile devices
able Position for adjusting to each trader’s preference or use in combination with other indicators

Impulse Profile Zones [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
Impulse Profile Zones is a volume-based tool designed to highlight high-impact candles and visualize hidden liquidity zones inside them using microstructure data. It’s ideal for identifying volume concentration and potential reaction points during impulsive market moves.
Whenever a candle exceeds a specified size threshold, this indicator captures its structure and overlays a detailed intrabar volume profile (from a 10x lower timeframe), allowing traders to analyze the distribution of interest within powerful market impulses.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Filters candles that exceed a user-defined threshold by size.
For qualifying candles, retrieves lower timeframe price and volume data.
Divides the candle’s body into 10 volume bins and calculates the volume per zone. Highlights the bin with the highest volume as the Point of Control (POC) .
Each POC line extends forward until a new impulse is detected.
🔵 FEATURES
Impulse Candle Detection:
Triggers only when a candle’s body size is larger than the defined threshold.
Lower Timeframe Profiling:
Aggregates 10-bin volume data from a lower timeframe (typically 1/10 of current TF).
Volume Distribution Bars:
Each bin displays a stylized bar using unicode block characters (e.g., ▇▇▇, ▇▇ or ▇--).
The bar size reflects the relative volume intensity.
POC Zone Mapping:
The bin with the highest volume is marked with a bold horizontal line.
Its value is labeled and extended until the next valid impulse.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Use large candle profiles to assess which price levels inside a move were most actively traded.
Watch the POC line as a magnet for future price interaction (support/resistance or reaction).
Combine with market structure or order block indicators to identify confluence levels.
Adjust the “Filter Large Candles” input to detect more or fewer events based on volatility.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Impulse Profile Zones is a hybrid microstructure tool that bridges lower timeframe volume with higher timeframe impulse candles. By revealing where most of the volume occurred inside large moves, traders gain a deeper view into hidden liquidity, enabling smarter trade entries and more confident profit-taking zones.
TwV Market Signals ScreenerMarket Signals Screener
This indicator allows traders to have a view of multiple pairs and timeframes Long/Short signals and specific information of parameters, based on the TwV Market Signals also developed by me and that can be found on my profile.
Full Screener Panel
This panel allows the trader to monitor multiple pairs at a single screen, giving an immediate vision of possible entries and exits (Long/Short). Moreover, allows traders to have handy all information of the TwV Market Signals Indicator that might be analyzed further for each pair. It has the following characteristics:
It can be placed anywhere on the screen through the main menu of the indicator.
It can be combined with the same indicator multiple times, as per screener is limited to show 40 pairs, you can select the number of panels being added to adjust position one next to each other.
It strengthens colors when a pair has changed its signals in order to the trader to know immediate changes and then do the follow up
The screener shows the pairs, which can be changed within the menus.
The screener shows the Long and Short Signals in its las column but previously, it shows the most critical parameters in the strategies (Market Signals Indicator) that determined the possible Long/Short position. Therefore, the EMAs, STOCH, SQZ, ADX, and TTM, are summarized in the screener for each pair.
For analyzing a specific pair, refer to the the Twv Market Signals Indicator, which is other indicator that might be on my TradingView Profile and that was used as base for the screener.
How to use this indicator and work with the strategies of the TwV Market Signals Indicator
The use of EMAs 10,20 and 50 draw the medium to long term trends, therefore avoiding signals against the trend. Furthermore, the EMAs will advise possible change in trends, especially considering the 10 and 20 cross, considering that crossing the 10,20 and 50, might confirm the change in med to long term trend change of the price. This is completely visual in the chart as it tints green for positive trend and yellow to red for negative trend.
The 200 SMA is included as it also gives better confirmation to the trend, the basics tell that when the EMAs mentioned above are below the 200 SMA then the likelihood for entries in long positions are not the best and vice versa for short.
Therefore, the trader shall filter Long and Short Signals accordingly as this EMAs are not used to send Long and Short signals considering that they confirm the trend in a slow pace and not reactively to the price volatility.
There are two strategies built-in within the indicator:
Strategy 1 – Longer time trades and high volatility handling
The Long and Short Signals are based on 14 and EMAs (by default). This two Mas are used to send signals based on their crossovers as they are way more reactive to the price movement.
Trader shall consider that EMAs are used for higher timeframes, therefore the indicator has the possibility to adjust the EMAs and use SMAs or WMAs instead for one or the two parameters (14 and 21).
WMAs react faster to the price volatility so the trader shall adjust this according to the timeframe being used. (Lower timeframes suggested).
This strategy is used for trades that might keep running for longer periods of times.
For reference on what the SMAs, EMAs and WMAs are, please see below sections in the description.
Strategy 2 - Shorter time trades and unhandled high volatility
The Long and Short Signals are bases on HMA. HMAs (Hull Moving Averages) track the price movement and volatility way faster that SMAs, EMAs and WMAs, therefore as the HMA follow the price quicker, it is intended for short time trades even in higher timeframes.
Scalping is not suggested using this strategy as HMA do not handle high volatility even on higher timeframes.
One of the biggest differences from the first strategy is that there is no more than a single HMA length to work with, which is 24 as default.
HMAs calculation is different to other MAs, therefore combining various HMAs lengths looking for crossovers become trend identification a lot less precise. HMAs are not intended to be used with different length crossovers.
Exit points = The use of Stochastic and VRVP
Stochastic RSI
It is well known that when Stochastic RSI resets when overbought or oversold therefore traders have within a summary box the possibility to check whether the K & D lines in the Stochastic RSI hace crossed over bullish or bearish.
Although the crossover is not mandatory for a change trend, the crossover might be used by the trader to exit a position considering that the price might move on the opposite direction.
Traders shall look at the summary box, where bullish and bearish crossovers are shown, so they evaluate their position exit.
Visible Range Volume Profile
The use of the VRVP is to find support and resistance on the price movements. Although high and lows are used as possible supports and resistances, VRVP shows an area of confluence on the order book, where volume of positions are accumulated and that might act as support or resistance depending on the price direction.
Traders can visually activate the VRVP to see the Point of Control (POC) directly on the chart as a line (similar as how a support or resistance would be drawn). Moreover, traders have the ability to see within the summary box, whether to see if the price is above or below the POC, so they clearly know if it is acting as support or resistance.
Price Direction
Trade the market trend is well known to be used to identify possible price direction. It is important not to confuse the longer time trend drawn by the EMAs with the TTM Trend bar color. The TTM trend colors bars according to the price direction, helping traders not to confuse when a red bar appears on an uptrend or green bars on a down trend.
This coloring helps traders not to exit trades based on bar coloring, which might psychologically affect when scalping or short-term trading specially.
Originally, the TTM trend is used considering the ADX in and indicator called TTM Squeeze, where the strength of the movement is measured, therefore although candle colors help with the price direction, ADX provides the trader the ability to see whether the direction is losing momentum and then catch the best possible exit before the direction change.
Terminology basics
Trend indicators
Exponential Moving Average (EMAs): The base indicator is composed of moving averages of 10, 20 and 55 exponential periods, to determine a possible bullish or bearish trend (EMA Crossing)
Simple Moving Average (SMA): The base indicator is composed of a moving average of 200 simple periods, which in conjunction with the EMAs can lead to estimate potential upward or downwards moves, as well as possible resistances. (SMA Positioning)
Weighted moving average (WMA): It is a technical indicator that traders use to generate trade direction and make a long or short position. It assigns greater weighting to recent data points and less weighting on past data points. (WMA Crossing)
Strength and S/R indicators
VPVR (Volume Profile Visible Range): It allows to determine the Point of Control (POC) which is the node with the highest volume profile. This can be used as an important retest point or to calculate potential support and resistance. The POC level is represented with a red dotted line in the graph.
The VPVR is a simplified version of the “TwV Multi-timeframe Dynamic VRVP” that you can find for free use in my profile. This version calculates the main’s timeframe POC and also has the possibility to be fixed range if the trader enables it from the menu. (Dynamic range by default).
ADX (Average Directional Index): The ADX helps the indicator to estimate the strength of the movement, always considering the DI+ and DI- to not go against the trend strength. This is represented as summary text in a table.
/
Exit indicator
Stochastic RSI: It is an indicator used in technical analysis that ranges between zero and a hundred and is created by applying the Stochastic oscillator formula to a set of relative strength index (RSI) values rather than to standard price data. Using RSI values within the Stochastic formula gives traders an idea of whether the current RSI value is overbought or oversold (Exit zones)

How to use Summary
1. Receive the Long or Short Signals using strategy 1 or 2, depending on the selected in the main menu of the indicator.
2. Evaluate the trend based on the 10,20, 50 and 200 MAs. Filter the Long and Short signals accordingly.
3. Monitor constantly the TTM Trend and the ADX for the direction and strength of the position entered and review if the momentum is being lost, considering step 4 or other possible reasons that might lead to exiting the position.
4. Once entered to a position evaluate constantly the Stochastic RSI bearish or bullish crossover or POC value on screen or summary box to exit the position.
5. Consider that for doing the evaluation individually, you shall use the TwV Market Signals.

WhalenatorThis custom TradingView indicator combines multiple analytic techniques to help identify potential market trends, areas of support and resistance, and zones of heightened trading activity. It incorporates a SuperTrend-like line based on ATR, Keltner Channels for volatility-based price envelopes, and dynamic order blocks derived from significant volume and pivot points. Additionally, it highlights “whale” activities—periods of exceptionally large volume—along with an estimated volume profile level and approximate bid/ask volume distribution. Together, these features aim to offer traders a more comprehensive view of price structure, volatility, and institutional participation.
This custom TradingView indicator integrates multiple trading concepts into a single, visually descriptive tool. Its primary goal is to help traders identify directional bias, volatility levels, significant volume events, and potential support/resistance zones on a price chart. Below are the main components and their functionalities:
SuperTrend-Like Line (Trend Bias):
At the core of the indicator is a trend-following line inspired by the SuperTrend concept, which uses Average True Range (ATR) to adaptively set trailing stop levels. By comparing price to these levels, the line attempts to indicate when the market is in an uptrend (price above the line) or a downtrend (price below the line). The shifting levels can provide a dynamic sense of direction and help traders stay with the predominant trend until it shifts.
Keltner Channels (Volatility and Range):
Keltner Channels, based on an exponential moving average and Average True Range, form volatility-based envelopes around price. They help traders visualize whether price is extended (touching or moving outside the upper/lower band) or trading within a stable range. This can be useful in identifying low-volatility consolidations and high-volatility breakouts.
Dynamic Order Blocks (Approximations of Supply/Demand Zones):
By detecting pivot highs and lows under conditions of significant volume, the indicator approximates "order blocks." Order blocks are areas where institutional buying or selling may have occurred, potentially acting as future support or resistance zones. Although these approximations are not perfect, they offer a visual cue to areas on the chart where price might react strongly if revisited.
Volume Profile Proxy and Whale Detection:
The indicator highlights price levels associated with recent maximum volume activity, providing a rough "volume profile" reference. Such levels often become key points of price interaction.
"Whale" detection logic attempts to identify bars where exceptionally large volume occurs (beyond a defined threshold). By tracking these "whale bars," traders can infer where heavy participation—often from large traders or institutions—may influence market direction or create zones of interest.
Approximate Bid/Ask Volume and Dollar Volume Tracking:
The script estimates whether volume within each bar leans more towards the bid or the ask side, aiming to understand which participant (buyers or sellers) might have been more aggressive. Additionally, it calculates dollar volume (close price multiplied by volume) and provides an average to gauge the relative participation strength over time.
Labeling and Visual Aids:
Dynamic labels display Whale Frequency (the ratio of bars with exceptionally large volume), average dollar volume, and approximate ask/bid volume metrics. This gives traders at-a-glance insights into current market conditions, participation, and sentiment.
Strengths:
Multifaceted Analysis:
By combining trend, volatility, volume, and order block logic in one place, the indicator saves chart space and simplifies the analytical process. Traders gain a holistic view without flipping between multiple separate tools.
Adaptable to Market Conditions:
The use of ATR and Keltner Channels adapts to changing volatility conditions. The SuperTrend-like line helps keep traders aligned with the prevailing trend, avoiding constant whipsaws in choppy markets.
Volume-Based Insights:
Integrating whale detection and a crude volume profile proxy helps traders understand where large players might be interacting. This perspective can highlight critical levels that might not be evident from price action alone.
Convenient Visual Cues and Labels:
The indicator provides quick reference points and textual information about the underlying volume dynamics, making decision-making potentially faster and more informed.
Weaknesses:
Heuristic and Approximate Nature:
Many of the indicator’s features, like the "order blocks," "whale detection," and the approximate bid/ask volume, rely on heuristics and assumptions that may not always be accurate. Without actual Level II data or true volume profiles, the insights are best considered as supplementary, not definitive signals.
Lagging Components:
Indicators that rely on past data, like ATR-based trends or moving averages for Keltner Channels, inherently lag behind price. This can cause delayed signals, particularly in fast-moving markets, potentially missing some early opportunities or late in confirming market reversals.
No Guaranteed Predictive Power:
As with any technical tool, it does not forecast the future with certainty. Strong volume at a certain level or a bullish SuperTrend reading does not guarantee price will continue in that direction. Market conditions can change unexpectedly, and false signals will occur.
Complexity and Overreliance Risk:
With multiple signals combined, there’s a risk of information overload. Traders might feel compelled to rely too heavily on this one tool. Without complementary analysis (fundamentals, news, or additional technical confirmation), overreliance on the indicator could lead to misguided trades.
Conclusion:
This integrated indicator offers a comprehensive visual guide to market structure, volatility, and activity. Its strength lies in providing a multi-dimensional viewpoint in a single tool. However, traders should remain aware of its approximations, inherent lags, and the potential for conflicting signals. Sound risk management, position sizing, and the use of complementary analysis methods remain essential for trading success.
Risks Associated with Trading:
No indicator can guarantee profitable trades or accurately predict future price movements. Market conditions are inherently unpredictable, and reliance on any single tool or combination of tools carries the risk of financial loss. Traders should practice sound risk management, including the use of stop losses and position sizing, and should not trade with funds they cannot afford to lose. Ultimately, decisions should be guided by a thorough trading plan and possibly supplemented with other forms of market analysis or professional advice.
Risks and Important Considerations:
• Not a Standalone Tool:
• This indicator should not be used in isolation. It is essential to incorporate additional technical analysis tools, fundamental analysis, and market context when making trading decisions.
• Relying solely on this indicator may lead to incomplete assessments of market conditions.
• Market Volatility and False Signals:
• Financial markets can be highly volatile, and indicators based on historical data may not accurately predict future movements.
• The indicator may produce false signals due to sudden market changes, low liquidity, or atypical trading activity.
• Risk Management:
• Always employ robust risk management strategies, including setting stop-loss orders, diversifying your portfolio, and not over-leveraging positions.
• Understand that no indicator guarantees success, and losses are a natural part of trading.
• Emotional Discipline:
• Avoid making impulsive decisions based on indicator signals alone.
• Emotional trading can lead to significant financial losses; maintain discipline and adhere to a well-thought-out trading plan.
• Continuous Learning and Adaptation:
• Stay informed about market news, economic indicators, and global events that may impact trading conditions.
• Continuously evaluate and adjust your trading strategies as market dynamics evolve.
• Consultation with Professionals:
• Consider seeking advice from financial advisors or professional traders to understand better how this indicator can fit into your overall trading strategy.
• Professional guidance can provide personalized insights based on your financial goals and risk tolerance.
