Smart Money Volume Tools | Lyro RS

Overview
The Smart Money Volume Tools (SMVT) is a multi-dimensional volume-based analysis suite designed to visualize the interplay between price action, moving averages, and smart money behavior.

By integrating dynamic moving averages, volume normalization, and multi-timeframe intelligence, SMVT helps traders identify when institutional (smart money) or retail participants are influencing price movements — all in a single, adaptive display.

Unlike traditional oscillators or trend tools, SMVT dynamically adjusts its sensitivity and thresholds based on volume z-scores and normalized momentum, revealing true intent behind price shifts rather than reacting to them.



🔹 Key Features

• 4 Core Analytical Modes:Trail Mode – Identifies directional bias using dynamic volume-weighted trails based on adaptive ATR multipliers.
  Volume Mode – Displays normalized volume strength vs. price trend, highlighting volume-driven expansions.
  Smart Money Volume Mode – Detects institutional buying/selling spikes from lower timeframes using volume z-score outliers.
  Retail Money Volume Mode – Contrasts retail-driven impulses to visualize crowd behavior and exhaustion points.
  
• Dynamic Volume Normalization: Converts volume impulses into a 0–100 range using a sigmoid function for smoother interpretation.
  
  
• Multi-Timeframe Intelligence: Automatically reads lower timeframe volume data to distinguish smart vs. retail activity.
  
  
• Adaptive Color Systems: Multiple palette modes (Classic, Mystic, Accented, Royal) or full custom color control.
  
  
• Signal Table Overlay: Built-in real-time module summary showing status for Trail, Volume, Smart Money, and Retail Money — right on your chart.
  

🔹 How It Works

1. Volume Strength Calculation:
   Calculates relative volume strength using a moving average baseline, then normalizes the result via a sigmoid function — mapping activity into a clean 0–100 range.
   
   
2. Smart Money Detection:
   Scans lower timeframe data for extreme volume z-scores (z > 2) to pinpoint institutional accumulation or distribution zones.
   
   
3. Trail Logic:
   Uses adaptive upper and lower trails based on ATR and volume intensity to track volatility-adjusted trend direction.
   
   
4. Color Logic:
   Trail, candle, and fill colors change dynamically according to the active signal type and selected palette — making directional bias instantly visible.
   

🔹 Practical Use

• Swing Confirmation (Trail Mode): Confirms sustained bullish or bearish momentum supported by volume, ideal for trailing positions and managing exits.
  
• Volume Expansion (Volume Mode): Highlights key moments when institutional liquidity pushes price before visible breakout confirmation.
  
• Smart vs. Retail Divergence: Identify conflicts between retail activity and smart money to detect exhaustion or reversal points early.
  
• Table Overlay Utility: Instantly see all active signals across modules in one compact, on-chart interface.
  

🔹 Customization

• Custom color palettes or manual bullish/bearish color selection.
  
• Adjustable EMA lengths and Volume SMA period.
  
• Selectable lower timeframe source for Smart Money analysis.
  
• Flexible table position & size controls — choose between Top, Middle, Bottom and Tiny to Huge.
  
• Switch freely between Trail, Volume, Smart Money, and Retail Money modes.
