MEMEQUANTMEMEQUANT
This script is a comprehensive and specialized tool designed for tracking trends and money flow within meme coins and DEX tokens. By combining various features such as trend lines, Fibonacci levels, and category-based indices, it helps traders make informed decisions in highly volatile markets.
Key Features:
1. Category-Based Indices:
• Tracks the performance of token categories like:
• AI Agent Tokens
• AI Tokens
• Animal Tokens
• Murad Picks
• Each category consists of leader tokens, which are selected based on their higher market cap and trading volume. These tokens act as benchmarks for their respective categories.
• Visualizes category indices in a line chart to identify trends and compare money flow between categories.
2. Fibonacci Correction Zones:
• Highlights key retracement levels (e.g., 60%, 70%, 80%).
• These levels are crucial for identifying potential reversal zones, commonly observed in meme coin trading patterns.
• Fully customizable to match individual trading strategies.
3. Trend Lines:
• Automatically detects major support and resistance levels.
• Separates long-term and short-term trend lines, allowing traders to focus on significant price movements.
4. Enhanced Info Table:
• Provides real-time insights, including:
• % Distance from All-Time High (ATH)
• Current Trading Volume
• 50-bar Average Volume
• Volume Change Percentage
• Displays information in an easy-to-read table on the chart.
5. Customizable Settings:
• Users can adjust transparency, colors, and ranges for Fibonacci zones, trend lines, and the table.
• Enables or disables individual features (e.g., Fibonacci, trend lines, table) based on preferences.
How It Works:
1. Tracking Money Flow Across Categories:
• The script calculates the market cap to volume ratio for each category of tokens to help identify the dominant trend.
• A higher ratio indicates greater liquidity and stability, while a lower ratio suggests higher volatility or price manipulation.
2. Identifying Retracement Patterns:
• Leverages common retracement behaviors (e.g., 70% correction levels) observed in meme coins to detect potential reversal zones.
• Combines this with trend line analysis for additional confirmation.
3. Leader Tokens as Indicators:
• Each category is represented by its leader tokens, which have historically higher liquidity and market cap. This allows the script to accurately reflect the overall trend in each category.
When to Use:
• Trend Analysis: To identify which category (e.g., AI Tokens or Animal Tokens) is leading the market.
• Reversal Zones: To spot potential support or resistance levels using Fibonacci zones.
• Money Flow: To understand how capital is moving across different token categories in real time.
Who Is This For?
This script is tailored for:
• Traders specializing in meme coins and DEX tokens.
• Those looking for an edge in trend-based trading by analyzing market cap, volume, and retracement levels.
• Anyone aiming to track money flow dynamics between different token categories.
Future Updates:
This is the initial version of the script. Future updates may include:
• Support for additional token categories and DEX data.
• More advanced pattern recognition and alerts for volume and price anomalies.

ICT Dealing RangeICT Dealing Range
This indicator identifies and plots ICT (Inner Circle Trader) Dealing Ranges - key institutional areas where smart money accumulates or distributes positions before significant moves.
What is a Dealing Range?
A Dealing Range is a significant price area where institutional traders accumulate or distribute their positions. These ranges form through a specific sequence of price movements that indicate institutional order flow:
Bullish Dealing Range Sequence:
1. Initial High (H)
2. Initial Low (L)
3. Higher High (HH)
4. Lower Low (LL)
5. Break above HH (confirmation)
Bearish Dealing Range Sequence:
1. Initial Low (L)
2. Initial High (H)
3. Lower Low (LL)
4. Higher High (HH)
5. Break below LL (confirmation)
My Trading Strategy
Entry Methods:
1. Range Extreme Retests:
- After range formation, wait for price to return to either extreme
- Long entries at range bottom with stops below
- Short entries at range top with stops above
2. Mid-Line Strategy:
- Use the mid-line as a pivot point for reversals
- Long entries on mid-line bounce with stops below
- Short entries on mid-line rejection with stops above
Stop Loss Placement:
- When entering at extremes: Place stops beyond the mid
- When entering at mid-line: Place stops beyond the opposing extreme
- Always respect the structure's boundaries
Take Profit Targets:
- Minimum 2:1 Risk-Reward ratio
- For extreme entries: Target the opposite extreme
- For mid-line entries: Target the nearest extreme
Risk Management
- Never enter without a clear invalidation point
- Maintain minimum 2:1 RR ratio
- Consider market structure and higher timeframe context
Indicator Features
- Auto-detection of dealing range patterns
- Color-coded boxes (green for bullish, red for bearish)

VWMACD-MFI-OBV Composite# MACD-MFI-OBV Composite
A dynamic volume-based technical indicator combining Volume-Weighted MACD, Money Flow Index (MFI), and normalized On Balance Volume (OBV). This composite indicator excels at identifying breakouts and strong trend movements through multiple volume confirmations, making it particularly effective for momentum and high-volatility trading environments.
## Overview
The indicator integrates trend, momentum, and cumulative volume analysis into a unified visualization system. Each component is carefully normalized to enable direct comparison, while the background color system provides instant trend recognition. This version is specifically optimized for breakout detection and strong trend confirmation.
## Core Components
### Volume-Weighted MACD
Visualized through the background color system, this enhanced MACD implementation uses Volume-Weighted Moving Averages (VWMA) instead of traditional EMAs. This modification ensures greater sensitivity to volume-supported price movements while filtering out less significant low-volume price changes. The background alternates between green (bullish) and red (bearish) to provide immediate trend feedback.
### Money Flow Index (MFI)
Displayed as the purple line, the MFI functions as a volume-weighted momentum oscillator. Operating within a natural 0-100 range, it helps identify potential overbought and oversold conditions while confirming volume support for price movements. The MFI is particularly effective at validating breakout momentum.
### Normalized On Balance Volume (OBV)
The white line represents normalized OBV, providing insight into cumulative buying and selling pressure. The normalization process scales OBV to match other components while maintaining its ability to confirm price trends through volume analysis. This component excels at identifying strong breakout movements and volume surges.
## Signal Integration
The indicator generates its most powerful signals when all three components align, particularly during breakout conditions:
Strong Bullish Signals develop when:
- Background shifts to green (VWMACD bullish)
- MFI shows strong upward momentum
- OBV demonstrates sharp volume accumulation
Strong Bearish Signals emerge when:
- Background turns red (VWMACD bearish)
- MFI exhibits downward momentum
- OBV shows significant volume distribution
## Market Application
This indicator variant is specifically designed for:
Breakout Trading:
The OBV component provides excellent sensitivity to volume surges, making it ideal for breakout confirmation and momentum validation.
Trend Following:
Sharp OBV movements combined with MFI momentum help identify and confirm strong trending conditions.
High Volatility Markets:
The indicator's design excels in active, volatile markets where clear signal generation is crucial for decision-making.
## Technical Implementation
Default Parameters:
Volume-Weighted MACD maintains traditional periods (12/26/9) while leveraging volume weighting. MFI uses standard 14-period calculation with 80/20 overbought/oversold thresholds. All components undergo normalization over a 100-period lookback for stable comparison.
Visual Elements:
- Background: VWMACD trend indication (green/red)
- Purple Line: Money Flow Index
- White Line: Normalized OBV
- Yellow Line: Combined signal (arithmetic mean of normalized components)
- Reference Lines: Key levels at 20, 50, and 80
## Trading Methodology
The indicator supports a systematic approach to breakout and momentum trading:
1. Breakout Identification
Monitor for background color changes accompanied by significant OBV movement, indicating potential breakout conditions.
2. Volume Surge Confirmation
Examine OBV slope and magnitude to confirm genuine breakout scenarios versus false moves.
3. Momentum Validation
Use MFI to confirm breakout strength and identify potential exhaustion points.
4. Combined Signal Analysis
The yellow line provides a unified view of all components, helping identify high-probability breakout opportunities.
## Interpretation Guidelines
Breakout Confirmation:
Strong breakouts typically show alignment of all three components with notable OBV surge. This configuration often precedes significant price movements.
Trend Strength:
Continuous OBV expansion during trends, supported by steady MFI readings, suggests sustained momentum.
## Market Selection
Optimal Markets Include:
- High-beta growth stocks
- Momentum-driven securities
- Stocks with significant volatility
- Active trading instruments
- Examples: TSLA, NVDA, growth stocks
## Version Information
Current Version: 2.0.0
This indicator represents a specialized adaptation of volume-based analysis, optimized for breakout trading and momentum strategies in high-volatility environments.
Red Pill VWAP/RSI DivergenceI created this indicator to identify moments in time VWAP and RSI are diverging.
Ideally useful in strong trend, bullish or bearish, as a potential entry point on a pull back for continuation. Not to be used as a stand alone signal, but rather in conjunction with any possible trend/momentum strategy.
VWAP is identified as the blue line. Green label(blue pill) is your potential entry on a pull back when price is above, stacked EMAS & VWAP for a long position. Red label(red pill) is your potential entry on a pull back when price is below inversely stacked EMAS & VWAP for a short position. These are the 2 ideal scenarios I have found. Please back test for yourself
I have had great results but must emphasis this is not a stand alone buy/sell. I use it in confluence to add conviction to my current A+ setups.
***Pivot ribbon in chart created by Saty Mahajan set to 3/10 time warp works ideal in conjunction.
***please note false positive and false negative signals can occur, particularly in chop
I hope you find this helpful . TRADE SAFE!
Onky's DikFat Supreme Supply and Demand Onky's DikFat Supreme Supply and Demand is an essential tool for traders looking to harness the power of Supply and Demand Trading , a strategy based on the fundamental market principle that prices increase when demand exceeds supply and decrease when supply surpasses demand. This indicator helps you pinpoint key Supply and Demand Zones on the chart, acting as high-probability areas for potential market reversals.
Introduction to Supply and Demand Trading
Supply and demand trading is one of the most powerful approaches used by traders across all financial markets, from stocks to forex to commodities. It works on the idea that prices will naturally rise when there is more demand than supply, and fall when there is more supply than demand. Understanding where these zones lie on the chart is critical for making profitable trades. By identifying key support and resistance levels driven by these forces, traders can anticipate price movements with high accuracy.
Benefits of Using Supply & Demand Trading:
Simple Trading Approach : Focus on market structure rather than complex indicators.
High-Probability Trading Setups : Recognize zones where price is likely to reverse.
Minimal Indicators Required : The strategy works on pure price action.
Works Across All Markets : Supply and demand principles apply to stocks, forex, and commodities.
High Accuracy : When implemented correctly, it offers a high degree of precision.
Whether you are just starting or looking to refine your strategy, understanding how to identify supply and demand zones can greatly improve your trading decisions. Here’s how you can begin:
Step 1: Identify Supply and Demand Zones
Before entering trades, it's essential to first identify the Supply and Demand Zones on your chart. These zones act as key support and resistance levels where price is likely to reverse.
Supply Zone : This represents an area where selling pressure exceeds buying pressure, causing the price to drop.
Demand Zone : This marks an area where buying pressure exceeds selling pressure, driving the price upwards.
These zones are crucial for spotting potential turning points in the market. Using Onky's DikFat Supreme Supply and Demand indicator, supply and demand zones are automatically detected, helping you to identify these key levels with ease. The indicator highlights these zones with specific color coding, allowing you to quickly see where price might reverse based on historical price action.
Step 2: Confirm Your Entry and Exit
Once you've identified the supply and demand zones, confirmation is key before entering any trades.
Entry Confirmation :
Look for additional technical indicators and patterns that signal a strong trade setup:
Candlestick Patterns : Bullish engulfing, Piercing Line, and other reversal patterns.
Chart Patterns : Double bottom, Head and Shoulders, and other formations that suggest a market shift.
Momentum Indicators : Use tools like MACD and RSI to confirm the strength of the trend.
Exit Confirmation :
Plan your exits with discipline to maximize your profits and minimize losses:
Stop Loss : Always place stop losses just outside of the supply or demand zone.
Exit Strategies :
Close part of the position at 2x risk and move stop loss to breakeven.
Trail stops below the previous support or resistance levels.
Close the full position using reversal candlestick patterns.
Step 3: Use Effective Risk Management
Incorporating effective Risk Management practices is essential for long-term success in supply and demand trading. Even with a high-probability edge, managing your risk ensures that you protect your capital and make more informed decisions.
Risk Management Best Practices :
Risk 1%-3% Per Trade : For a $10,000 account, risk only $100-$300 per trade.
Position Sizing : Stick to position sizes appropriate for your account size to manage risk effectively.
Set Stop Loss Orders : Always manage your risk with clearly defined stop losses.
Control Emotions : Avoid overtrading, revenge trading, and excessive confidence. Stick to your plan.
By combining supply and demand zones with solid risk management, you can confidently trade the markets and grow your account over time.
Start Applying Supply and Demand
Now that you understand the basics, you can begin applying Supply and Demand trading using the Onky's DikFat Supreme Supply and Demand indicator to detect key zones and high-probability setups. Here’s how to start:
Identify Fresh Supply and Demand Levels : Use the indicator to automatically find the most relevant zones.
Confirm Setups with Additional Signals : Use candlestick patterns, momentum indicators, and chart patterns for entry confirmation.
Manage Risk on Every Trade : Always use proper risk management to ensure you’re protecting your capital.
As you become more proficient in identifying and trading these zones, you will enhance your trading strategy and improve your consistency. Implementing these practices early on will help you grow as a trader and achieve long-term success.

3 Candle AlertThis is a test for integration using a webhook. I am publishing it so I can share it. Ultimately, this is what we want to do:
1. Trade Entry Rules:
Wait until at least the 3rd bar of the day (15 minutes after market open) before entering the first trade.
Order of Priority for Entry:
Look for two consecutive volume bars of the same color (the second bar must have higher volume than the first).
Look for a “price push” beyond the high or low of the day (as determined in the first 15 minutes).
2. Trading Direction:
If the volume bars are RED, I take a Long Position.
If the volume bars are GREEN, I take a Short Position.
Rolling Angled Volume Profile [Trendoscope®]🎲 Volume Profile Indicators
🎯Traditional Volume Profile
Volume profile indicators visually represent the distribution of volume across price levels. These indicators typically operate on horizontal price levels, making them effective in identifying supply and demand zones in ranging markets. However, they are less useful in trending markets where price movements follow a slope.
🎯The Need for Angled Volume Profiles
Just as support and resistance levels differ from trendlines, volume profile indicators require an equivalent method to account for volume distribution along a sloped trajectory. This would enable more accurate volume analysis in trending markets.
We identified the need of Angled Volume profile and have already published few indicators that implements the concept.
Angled Volume Profile calculates volume distribution along a slope. Users interact with the indicator by selecting the starting point, after which the volume profile is calculated for the selected trajectory.
Volume Forks is another tool that extends angled volume profile analysis, aligning volume profiles along the trajectory of pitchforks.
🎲 Rolling Volume Profile Indicator
The Rolling Volume Profile offers a new approach to angled volume profile calculations, addressing some limitations of earlier implementations:
🎯 Rolling Calculation
The volume profile is calculated for the last N bars of the instrument
The slope of the profile lines is determined by the closing prices of the starting and ending bars
Profiles are drawn in the direction of price movement between the start and end bars.
🎯 Dynamic Updates
As new bars are added, the calculations are updated, and the profile is redrawn based on the latest data.
This dynamic behavior earns it the name "Rolling Volume Profile."
🎯 Advantages Over Earlier Versions
Unlimited Profile Lines : Unlike previous implementations limited to 500 profile lines, this indicator uses polyline objects, overcoming the restriction.
Live Updates : Previous angled volume profile tools lacked real-time updates when new bars appeared. This limitation is resolved in the Rolling Volume Profile Indicator.
The Rolling Volume Profile provides an efficient and scalable solution for analyzing volume in trending markets.
🎯 Indicator Settings
Simple settings include few customisable options
Volume Weighted Moving Average (TechnoBlooms)The Volume Weighted Moving Average Oscillator (VWMO) is a custom technical indicator designed to measure market momentum while accounting for volume. It helps traders assess whether price movements are supported by strong or weak trading volumes. The VWMO provides insights into potential trends by comparing current momentum with historical averages.
Indicator Overview:
The VWMO is based on a combination of price and volume data, highlighting the relationship between these two components to generate a clear oscillation value. The oscillator displays dynamic insights into market strength, capturing price directionality and volume alignment.
Key Features:
1. Dynamic Visualization of Momentum:
o The oscillator displays positive and negative momentum by analyzing the relationship between price movements and trading volume over a specified period.
o Positive momentum typically represents a bullish market, while negative momentum reflects bearish conditions.
2. Volume-Weighted Analysis:
o Volume is incorporated to give an adjusted price perspective, where price movements on high-volume days have more influence on the resulting oscillator values.
3. Trend Confirmation via EMA:
o An Exponential Moving Average (EMA) of the oscillator is plotted to smooth the raw oscillator values and provide trend confirmation.
o The EMA is essential for identifying whether the oscillator is in an upward or downward trend. It also serves as a support for evaluating when momentum might reverse.
4. Visual Indicators and Color Coding:
o The indicator uses varying color intensities to differentiate between strong and weak momentum.
o Bullish and bearish momentum is visually reflected by colors, offering at-a-glance guidance on potential trade opportunities.
5. Overbought and Oversold Thresholds:
o Horizontal lines at predefined levels (e.g., +100 and -100) help to define overbought and oversold areas, which assist in identifying overextended price movements that may signal reversals.
6. Scalability & Adaptability:
o The indicator allows for adjustment of the period, EMA length, and other key parameters to tailor its usage according to different asset classes or timeframe preferences.
Enhanced Retail vs Institutional ActivityThis script highlights market activity in real-time, making it easier to infer the type of market participants driving price and volume changes.
Here’s a list of what the script analyzes:

Analysis Explanation:
I’m forecasting that Bitcoin will retest its November 12th low (~$85,098.75) around January 20th, 2025, where the horizontal support line intersects with the downtrend line. This conclusion is based on the following:
Trend Analysis:
The chart shows a clear downtrend with price respecting the descending trendline.
The intersection of the horizontal support and the downtrend line on January 20th indicates a confluence point where price action may gravitate.
Volume and Activity Insights:
Using the Retail vs Institutional Activity indicator, the chart highlights periods dominated by institutional (red background) or retail (green background) activity.
Current price action is in a green zone, suggesting predominantly retail participation with lower volume and insignificant price movements.
Retail vs Institutional Dynamics:
Institutional activity (red zones) aligns with significant price movements and volume spikes, often marking key turning points or trends.
The recent green retail-dominated periods suggest a lack of strong momentum, which may lead to continued price decline until institutions re-enter around the confluence area.
Volume Observations:
Volume remains relatively low during the current retail phase, indicating weak buying pressure.
A potential surge in institutional activity (red zones) near the support level could trigger a rebound or breakdown.
I expect Bitcoin’s price to drop further and test the November 12th low near $85,098.75 on January 20th, 2025. This projection is supported by the convergence of the downtrend line and horizontal support, low retail-driven volume, and historical institutional activity patterns observed using the "Retail vs Institutional Activity" indicator.
Choppiness Index (levels)This Pine Script is a Choppiness Index Indicator with gradient visual enhancements. The Choppiness Index is a technical analysis tool that measures the "choppiness" or sideways movement of the market. It ranges from 0 to 100, where higher values indicate a more consolidated or sideways market, and lower values suggest a trending market.
Key Features:
Choppiness Index Calculation:
The script calculates the Choppiness Index based on the Average True Range (ATR) and the highest and lowest prices over a user-defined period (length).
Visual Bands:
Horizontal dashed lines are drawn at levels 55 (Upper Band), 50 (Middle Band), and 45 (Lower Band) to define key levels for interpreting the indicator.
Gradient Fills:
A blue fill is applied between the upper and lower bands (45–55) for visual clarity.
Dynamic gradients are applied to the areas:
Above the Upper Band (55–100): A green gradient fill where the color intensity increases with higher values.
Below the Lower Band (0–45): A red gradient fill where the color intensity increases with lower values.
Offset Option:
The offset input allows users to shift the Choppiness Index plot horizontally for visualization or alignment purposes.
Usage:
This indicator helps traders quickly assess market conditions:
Values above 55 indicate a choppy, non-trending market.
Values below 45 indicate a trending market.
The gradient fills make it easier to spot extreme conditions visually.
Customization:
Users can adjust:
length: The calculation period for the Choppiness Index.
offset: Horizontal shift of the Choppiness Index plot.
The gradient colors (green and red) and transparency levels are customizable in the script.
This enhanced visualization is ideal for traders who want a clear and intuitive representation of market choppiness, combined with visually striking gradient fills for quick analysis of market conditions.
Volume Equilibrium Overlay(2 of 2)This is an overlay for a prior script I've created: Volume Equilibrium.
To sum it up in a brief manner, this script plots when there is "volume-equilibrium" aka prices that the market may see as "fair-value" relative to the specified timeframe. This script provides what my last code lacked and that is a visual representation of critical prices.
The arrows beside the indications indicate the direction that the buying/selling volume was heading towards.
UP ARROW - indicates that equilibrium was had via increasing buy volume
DOWN ARROW - indicates that equilibrium was had via decreasing buy volume
Remember, this doesn't inherently mean that a stock is supposed to go up or down. Its just a representation of 'fair-value' points using volume. Also remember... both indicators provide what the other lacks. It isn't necessary to use both but for a broad overview of volume it definitely helps to at least be aware of how this information can be represented. Perhaps... consider switching between the two to see what you may be missing.
I believe finding 'fair-value' points via volume and price action provides a more objective way to measure what prices one should look at rather then arbitrary lines plotted on a chart. For more information feel welcome to look at the script that this code is based off of.

Custom Volume Ratio Indicator
The Custom Volume Ratio Indicator is a unique tool designed for traders to analyze price movements in relation to trading volume. This indicator calculates the ratio of the price range (the difference between the highest and lowest prices of a candle) to the volume of that candle. By visualizing this ratio, traders can gain insights into market dynamics and potential price movements.
Key Features:
1. Price Range Calculation: The indicator computes the price range for each candle by subtracting the lowest price from the highest price. This gives traders an understanding of how much price fluctuated during that specific time frame.
2. Volume Measurement: It utilizes the trading volume of each candle, which reflects the number of shares or contracts traded during that period. Volume is a critical factor in confirming trends and reversals in the market.
3. Ratio Visualization: The primary output of the indicator is the ratio of price range to volume. A higher ratio may indicate increased volatility relative to volume, suggesting potential trading opportunities. Conversely, a lower ratio could imply a more stable market environment.
4. Color-Coded Bars: The bars representing the ratio are color-coded based on the candle's closing price relative to its opening price. Green bars indicate bullish candles (where the close is higher than the open), while red bars indicate bearish candles (where the close is lower than the open). This visual cue helps traders quickly assess market sentiment.
5. Background Highlighting: The indicator also features a subtle background color to enhance visibility, making it easier for traders to focus on key areas of interest on the chart.
Use Cases:
• Trend Confirmation: Traders can use the volume ratio to confirm existing trends. A rising ratio alongside increasing volume may suggest a strong bullish trend, while a declining ratio could indicate weakening momentum.
• Volatility Assessment: By analyzing the price range relative to volume, traders can identify periods of high volatility. This information can be crucial for setting stop-loss orders or determining entry points.
• Market Sentiment Analysis: The color-coded bars provide immediate insight into market sentiment, allowing traders to make informed decisions based on recent price action.
Overall, the Custom Volume Ratio Indicator serves as a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit, providing essential insights into market behavior and helping to inform trading strategies.
X.Y Format Candle Volume & CompressionThe Volume & Compression Indicator is designed to help traders identify significant market moves by displaying two key metrics above each candle. The top number represents the Volume Ratio, which compares the current candle's volume to the average volume of recent candles. For example, a reading of 2.5 means the current volume is 2.5 times higher than average. When volume exceeds 9.9 times the average, the indicator displays an up or down arrow instead of a number, indicating extremely high volume in that direction.
The bottom number shows the Compression Ratio, which measures the relationship between volume and price movement. This helps identify when large amounts of volume are moving price significantly (low compression) versus when high volume isn't resulting in much price movement (high compression). High compression often indicates accumulation or distribution phases, while low compression with high volume typically suggests strong directional moves.
The indicator includes visual cues to help spot patterns. Dots appear above candles when both high volume and high compression persist over several candles, potentially indicating accumulation phases. Arrows mark possible pivot points after these accumulation periods. Additionally, the candles themselves can display a gradient color that intensifies with increased compression, making it easier to spot areas of interest.
For trading purposes, watch for volume spikes (top number above 2.0) as they can signal potential reversal points or confirm breakouts. High compression readings might precede breakouts, while low compression with high volume often confirms strong trend moves. The most significant signals often come when both metrics show high readings over multiple candles, suggesting sustained institutional interest.
Time-Based VWAP (TVWAP)(TVWAP) Indicator
The Time-Based Volume Weighted Average Price (TVWAP) indicator is a customized version of VWAP designed for intraday trading sessions with defined start and end times. Unlike the traditional VWAP, which calculates the volume-weighted average price over an entire trading day, this indicator allows you to focus on specific time periods, such as ICT kill zones (e.g., London Open, New York Open, Power Hour). It helps crypto scalpers and advanced traders identify price deviations relative to volume during key trading windows.
Key Features:
Custom Time Interval:
You can set the exact start and end times for the VWAP calculation using input settings for hours and minutes (24-hour format).
Ideal for analyzing short, high-liquidity periods.
Dynamic Accumulation of Price and Volume:
The indicator resets at the beginning of the specified session and accumulates price-volume data until the end of the session.
Ensures that the TVWAP reflects the weighted average price specific to the chosen session.
Visual Representation:
The indicator plots the TVWAP line only during the specified time window, providing a clear visual reference for price action during that period.
Outside the session, the TVWAP line is hidden (na).
Use Cases:
ICT Scalp Trading:
Monitor price rebalances or potential liquidity sweeps near TVWAP during important trading sessions.
Mean Reversion Strategies:
Detect pullbacks toward the session’s average price for potential entry points.
Breakout Confirmation:
Confirm price direction relative to TVWAP during kill zones or high-volume times to determine if a breakout is supported by volume.
Inputs:
Start Hour/Minute: The time when the TVWAP calculation starts.
End Hour/Minute: The time when the TVWAP calculation ends.
Technical Explanation:
The indicator uses the timestamp function to create time markers for the session start and end.
During the session, the price-volume (close * volume) is accumulated along with the total volume.
TVWAP is calculated as:
TVWAP = (Sum of (Price × Volume)) ÷ (Sum of Volume)
Once the session ends, the TVWAP resets for the next trading period.
Customization Ideas:
Alerts: Add notifications when the price touches or deviates significantly from TVWAP.
Different Colors: Use different line colors based on upward or downward trends.
Multiple Sessions: Add support for multiple TVWAP lines for different time periods (e.g., London + New York).

In low-volume markets, signals may produce false positives or unreliable results.
Assumes traders have basic knowledge of price action and volume analysis.
By integrating this indicator into your strategy, you gain a powerful tool to analyze buyer/seller dominance alongside volume trends, improving your market timing and trade execution.
The Buyer and Seller Pressure components in this indicator provide crucial insights into the market's sentiment and momentum by analyzing the price action relative to the trading volume. Here's how they are used:
1. Buyer Pressure:
Formula:
Buyer Pressure = (Close − Open) / (High − Low )
Interpretation:
* A high buyer pressure (≥ 0.75) indicates strong bullish sentiment, where the price closes much higher than it opened, and the range (high-low) is sufficiently wide.
* It identifies periods of aggressive buying, often signaling potential bullish trends or confirming upward momentum.
2. Seller Pressure:
Formula:
Seller Pressure = (Close − Open ) / (High -Low )
Interpretation:
*A high seller pressure (≥ 0.75) suggests strong bearish sentiment, where the price closes much lower than it opened, within a wide range.
*It helps identify periods of aggressive selling, signaling potential bearish trends or downward momentum.
Purpose in the Indicator:
1. Market Sentiment Analysis:
* Buyer Pressure and Seller Pressure allow traders to gauge market sentiment—whether buyers or sellers dominate a particular time frame.
* This helps in identifying trend reversals or confirmations.
2. Decision-Making Framework:
* The indicator uses thresholds (default 0.75) to classify the market into:
* Strong Buy Signal: When buyer pressure is dominant.
* Strong Sell Signal: When seller pressure is dominant.
* Neutral Signal: When neither buyer nor seller pressure dominates.
*This classification provides a straightforward decision-making tool for traders.
Risk Management:
*By identifying periods of strong buying or selling, traders can avoid entering trades in highly volatile or one-sided markets, which helps reduce risk.
Volume Confirmation:
*Integrating volume data with buyer/seller pressure helps confirm trends. For example:
*High buyer pressure accompanied by higher-than-average volume strengthens the bullish signal.
*Similarly, high seller pressure with higher-than-average volume confirms bearish signals.
Trade Timing:
*The indicator highlights conditions of potential entry (strong buy) or exit (strong sell), allowing traders to time their trades better based on real-time market activity.
Use Case:
*Example:
*Suppose the indicator shows Buyer Pressure = 0.85 with daily volume above the 3-day average. This combination suggests strong bullish activity with momentum, signaling a buy opportunity.
*Conversely, if Seller Pressure = 0.80 with volume above the 5-day average, it signals strong bearish momentum, ideal for selling or shorting.
This indicator combines buyer/seller pressure with volume dynamics, making it valuable for short-term and intraday traders looking for precise market entries and exits.
The background color in this indicator plays an important visual role in helping traders quickly identify the market sentiment based on buyer and seller pressure. It provides a dynamic, color-coded background that changes depending on the strength of the market's buying or selling activity.
Here's how it works:
Background Color Logic:
1. Green Background (Strong Buy Signal):
*Condition: The background turns green when buyer pressure is greater than or equal to 0.75 (strong buying pressure).
*Interpretation: A green background indicates that there is significant bullish sentiment in the market, with strong buying activity. Traders can interpret this as an environment conducive to buying or holding long positions.
*Visual Effect: This helps to quickly spot bullish market conditions, reinforcing potential entry signals for buyers.
2.Red Background (Strong Sell Signal):
*Condition: The background turns red when seller pressure is greater than or equal to 0.75 (strong selling pressure).
*Interpretation: A red background indicates that the market is dominated by selling, showing strong bearish sentiment. Traders can consider this as a signal to sell or short the asset.
*Visual Effect: The red background highlights moments when the market is heavily selling, prompting traders to either exit long positions or take short positions.
Gray Background (Neutral/Indecision Zone):
Condition: The background turns gray when neither buyer nor seller pressure exceeds 0.75. This means the market is neutral, with no dominant bullish or bearish sentiment.
Interpretation: A gray background suggests market indecision or balance between buyers and sellers. It can indicate periods of consolidation or sideways movement where no strong trend is forming.
Visual Effect: The gray background helps traders avoid entering trades when the market lacks a clear direction or when the sentiment is neutral, reducing risk during indecisive times.
Practical Use:
Instant Visual Confirmation:
*Traders can use the background color as an instant confirmation of the market’s sentiment. For instance, if the background turns green, traders might feel more confident in making a long (buy) trade.
*If the background turns red, it serves as a strong visual cue to short or exit a long position.
Helps with Trade Timing:
*The background color can be used in conjunction with other indicators and volume data to time entries and exits more effectively. For example:
*A green background with strong volume indicates a strong trend that could justify a buy.
*A red background with a significant volume surge signals strong selling pressure, which could prompt a sell.
Simplifies Market Analysis:
*For traders who prefer visual cues over complex analysis, the background color simplifies market conditions. Instead of focusing on individual numbers or values, the color-coded background gives them a quick, intuitive view of the market sentiment.
Summary:
* Green background = Strong buying pressure (bullish sentiment)
* Red background = Strong selling pressure (bearish sentiment)
* Gray background = Neutral market (indecision or balance between buyers and sellers)
This background color functionality helps traders stay aware of the prevailing market sentiment at a glance, providing an intuitive way to guide trading decisions.
Enhanced VFI Buyer/Seller PressureThe "Enhanced VFI Buyer/Seller Pressure" indicator serves multiple roles in technical analysis and trading decision-making. Here's an overview of its purpose and functionality:
1. Understanding Market Dynamics
* Buyer Pressure: Indicates how strongly buyers are influencing the price movement during a specific period.
* Seller Pressure: Reflects the intensity of selling activity and its impact on price movement.
Helps assess the balance of power between buyers and sellers.
2. Identifying Key Trading Signals
* Strong Buy Signal: Triggered when buyer pressure exceeds the threshold, suggesting strong upward momentum and a potential opportunity to buy.
* Strong Sell Signal: Triggered when seller pressure exceeds the threshold, indicating strong downward momentum and a potential opportunity to sell.
* Neutral Zone: Represents periods of indecision, where neither buyers nor sellers dominate, often leading to consolidation or reduced volatility.
3. Visualizing Volume Flow Index (VFI)
VFI: Measures the money flow in and out of the market, factoring in both price and volume dynamics.
Helps identify bullish or bearish trends through crossovers:
* VFI Crossover EMA: Signals a bullish shift.
* VFI Crossunder EMA: Signals a bearish shift.
4. Supporting Decision-Making
Histogram Visualization: Provides an easy-to-read representation of buyer and seller pressure over time.

Candles Volume HeatMap [BigBeluga]Candles Volume HeatMap
The Candle Volume HeatMap indicator is a unique and advanced tool that visualizes lower timeframe volume activity within higher timeframe candles, offering traders a granular perspective on volume distribution.
⚠️Important note: before using the indicator, it is necessary to apply it to the candles
🔵Key Features:
Volume HeatMap Visualization: The indicator breaks down each higher timeframe candle into 10 equal vertical segments (boxes) based on its high-to-low range. Each box represents a lower timeframe candle's volume activity, with more intense colors indicating stronger volume levels.
Lower Timeframe Integration: Automatically uses a timeframe 10x lower than the current chart. For example, on a 10-hour chart, it uses 1-hour candles to extract volume data.
POC (Point of Control): The highest volume box within each candle is marked with the volume value. The indicator also plots a horizontal POC line at the level of this box, highlighting significant areas of price interest. The POC line is removed once the price crosses it, ensuring the chart stays clean.
Delta Display (Optional): Traders can enable the Delta feature to analyze buyer vs. seller activity within each higher timeframe candle.
Delta is calculated by summing 10 lower timeframe candles: a bullish candle adds to buyers, while a bearish candle adds to sellers. Displays the net Delta percentage: positive values (white) indicate buyer dominance, while negative values (red) indicate seller dominance.
Dynamic Volume Scaling: The highest volume value in each candle is displayed inside its respective box, providing quick insights into critical price-volume levels.
🔵How It Works:
For each higher timeframe candle, the indicator analyzes 10 lower timeframe candles and maps their volume into 10 segments (boxes) between the high and low of the current candle.
The intensity of each box's color corresponds to the relative volume of the lower timeframe candle it represents.
The POC highlights the price level with the highest concentration of volume, aiding in identifying potential support/resistance zones.
Delta analysis offers additional insights into market sentiment by breaking down buyer and seller activity in each candle.
🔵Use Cases:
Spotting key volume areas within higher timeframe candles to identify support and resistance levels.
Analyzing volume concentration for potential breakout or reversal zones.
Leveraging Delta analysis to gauge market sentiment and confirm volume-based trends.
This indicator is ideal for traders seeking to combine volume analysis with price action, offering precise insights into volume distribution and market dynamics.
Breakout StrategyThe strategy aims to capture upward price movements (breakouts) by observing when the price exceeds a predefined range, known as the Donchian Channel, while also ensuring trading volume supports the move.
When Does It Open a Long Trade?
The strategy opens a long trade (buy position) when both of these conditions are met:
1. Price Breaks Above the Upper Band
- The current closing price is higher than the Upper Band of the Donchian Channel.
- This indicates a potential breakout, signaling upward momentum.
2. High Volume Confirmation
- The current trading volume is greater than 1.9 times the average volume over the Donchian Channel's length.
- This ensures the breakout is backed by significant market activity, reducing the chance of false signals.
Only when both conditions are true, the strategy will execute a long entry.
When Does It Close the Trade?
The strategy closes the long trade (exits the position) when:
1. Price Falls Below the Middle Band
- The closing price drops below the Middle Band of the Donchian Channel.
- This acts as a reversal signal, suggesting the upward momentum has weakened, and it’s time to exit the trade.
Volume EquilibriumThe intent behind this indicator is to provide comprehensive information relating to volume compared to multiple timeframes. This indicator allows one to see what the market 'theoretically' sees as 'fair-value' whilst also allowing one to gauge where the price of a stock is headed.
Volume Equilibrium
The main indicator finds the difference between buying volume and selling volume, under the basic presumption that more buying volume indicates greater bullish sentiment and vice versa.
Buying Volume = volume when close price is higher than open price.
Selling Volume = volume when close price is lower than open price.
Volume Balance = Cumulative Buying Volume − Cumulative Selling Volume
Volume Balance is then expressed as a percentage by dividing by total volume
This indicator is composed of three different lengths of the same indicator. Short, Mid, and Long term representations of Volume Equilibrium. The difference between the mid and long term are highlighted so to make it easy to see where volume is going relative to a longer time frame.
HOW TO USE:
At 0 ---> Equilibrium ---> Equal Buying/Selling Volume
Above 0 ---> More buying Volume
Below 0 ---> More selling Volume
Using theory, it is assumed that the price is at a 'fair-value' when the buying/selling volume is at 0. This is of course relative to the respective timeframe of your choosing. More weight given to larger timeframes.
Volume Histogram
It is a basic volume chart that represents the total volume though has highlighted bars so to indicate buying(green) and selling(red) volume. This allows one to see what the indicator is based off of.
Open-Close Oscillator(not needed)
Calculates the average open-close for a selected timeframe and then provides the current closing price relative to that average open-close. Very simply put, values below 0 indicate bearish and values above 0 generally indicate bullishness. This indicator is for a quick reference of price action relative to volume.
Another way to use this indicator, though unique, is to analyze the separate open-close lines themselves. Using the open-close bands, bullishness is defined as increasing closing prices and bearish as decreasing closing prices. So, in regard to this indicator, bear sessions can be indicated by the opening line being below the closing line and bull sessions as the opening line being above. Use the 'flip' of these lines to your advantage, they are very helpful at capturing long continuous sentiment.
This indicator is composed of great information though I still think it best to use many different indicators to help you with your trades.
NOTE: Be aware of what we are trying to analyze, Volume. This means that one should also look out for divergences to capture early indications of reversals. This indicator can be leveraged greatly.
Volume Spike IndicatorThe Volume Spike Indicator is designed to identify significant volume spikes in the market. This tool helps traders recognize unusual trading activity, which may indicate potential reversals, breakouts, or increased volatility. The indicator uses a simple moving average (SMA) of volume over a specified period and highlights bars where the current volume exceeds a multiple of this average.
Features:
Volume SMA Calculation:
The indicator calculates the SMA of volume over a customizable period (default: 20 bars).
Spike Multiplier:
A threshold multiplier (default: 4) determines what qualifies as a "spike."
Spikes occur when the current volume is greater than the SMA multiplied by this threshold.
Visual Alerts:
If a spike is detected, a red cross ( Cross ) and X-shape ( X-Cross ) are plotted above the corresponding bar for easy identification.
How to Use:
Spot High-Activity Areas:
Use this indicator to find points of unusually high trading activity, which can signify key levels or moments of interest in the market.
Adjust Settings for Sensitivity:
Length : Change the SMA period to match your trading timeframe.
Spike Multiplier : Lower values detect smaller spikes; higher values focus on extreme events.
Combine with Other Indicators:
This tool works best when combined with price action analysis, support/resistance levels, or trend indicators to confirm trading signals.
Customization Options:
Length: Number of bars for SMA calculation (default: 20).
Spike Multiplier: Threshold for defining volume spikes (default: 4).
This indicator is suitable for traders looking to enhance their analysis by identifying abnormal market activity.
Volume Divergence Lookback IndicatorDescription : The (VDLI 👑) is a tool designed to analyze volume divergences relative to specific lookback periods, helping identify potential trend changes in the markets. this indicator adapts to different timeframes and allow users to customize lookback and calibration parameters for optimized insights into volume and price dynamics.
Trading TimesThis script is based on the 9 and 20 EMA Strategy and combines Fibonacci Levels for added confluence.
When the price retests after breaking the EMAs, we take the trade in the same direction. That is on breakup, we take a long and on a breakdown we take a short.
VWAP can be enabled from settings for more data. institutions use it to average out their trades for both buy and sell orders.
