VPT and Heiken Ashi Candles MTFThe volume price trend indicator is used to determine the balance between a security’s demand and supply. The percentage change in the share price trend shows the relative supply or demand of a particular security, while volume indicates the force behind the trend. The VPT indicator is similar to the on-balance volume (OBV) indicator in that it measures cumulative volume and provides traders with information about a security’s money flow
So we put the VPT and add HA candles with non repainting MTF , the crossing up or down of the VPT over candles create the signals
since VPT tend to overshoot you can smooth it with Leni..(just give the smoothing of the length this stupid name:) )

Risk & Position CalculatorThis indicator is called "Risk & Position Calculator".
This indicator shows 4 information on a table format.
1st: 20 day ADR% (ADR%)
2nd: Low of the day price (LoD)
3rd: The percentage distance between the low of the day price and the current market price in real-time (LoD dist.%)
4th: The calculated amount of shares that are suggested to buy (Shares)
The ADR% and LoD is straightforward, and I will explain more on the 3rd and 4th information.
__________________________________________________________________________________
The Lod dist.% is a useful tool if you are a breakout buyer and use the low of the day price as your stop loss, it helps you determine if a breakout buy is at a risk tight area (~1/2 ADR%) or it is more of a chase (>1 ADR%).
I use four different colors to visualize this calculation results (green, yellow, purple, and red).
Green: Lod dist.% <= 0.5 ADR%
Yellow: 0.5 ADR% < Lod dist.% <= 1 ADR%
Purple: 1 ADR% < Lod dist.% <= 1.5 ADR%
Red: 1.5 ADR% < Lod dist.%
(e.g., if Lod dist.% is colored in Green, it means your stop loss is <= 0.5 ADR%, therefore if you buy here, the risk is probably tight enough)
__________________________________________________________________________________
The Shares is a useful tool if you want to know exactly how many shares you should buy at the breakout moment. To use this tool, you first need to input two information in the indicator setting panel: the account size ($) and portfolio risk (%).
Account Size ($) means the dollar value in your total account.
Portfolio Risk (%) means how much risk you are willing to take per trade.
(e.g. a 1% portfolio risk in a 5000$ account is 50$, which is the risk you will take per trade)
After you provide these two inputs, the indicator will help you calculate how many shares you should buy based on the calculated Dollar Risk ($), real-time market price, and the low of the day price.
(e.g. Dollar Risk (50$), real-time market price (100$), Lod price (95$) -> then you will need to buy 50/(100-95) = 10 shares to meet your demand, so it will display as Shares { 10 } )
In addition, I also introduce a mechanism that helps you avoid buying too big of a position relative to your overall account . I set the limit to 25%, which means you don't put more than 25% of your account money into a single trade, which helps prevent single stock risk.
By introducing this mechanism, it will supervise if the suggested Shares to buy exceed max position limit (25%). If it actually exceeds, instead of using Dollar Risk ($) to calculate Shares, it will use position limit to calculate and display the max Shares you should buy.

That's it. Hope you find this explanation helpful when you use this indicator. Have a great day mate:)

RSI Multi Levels kiawosch [TradingFinder] 7-14-42 Consolidation🔵 Introduction
The Relative Strength Index or RSI is a tool used to measure the speed and intensity of price movement, oscillating between zero and one hundred. It is commonly applied to identify strength or weakness in market momentum across different time intervals. Despite its simple formula and wide usage, the behavior of RSI within specific ranges often provides more precise information than traditional overbought and oversold levels.
The Multi RSI layout displays three RSI values with periods 7, 14 and 42. The seven period RSI plays the primary role in short term analysis. When this value enters predefined ranges, it shows highly consistent and interpretable behavior that can signal trend continuation, corrections or the start of a range structure. The other two values, RSI 14 and RSI 42, help reveal higher timeframe momentum and provide context for the depth and quality of price movement.
Three potential zones are defined, each representing a behavioral range. The position zones forms the basis for signal interpretation :
High Potential : 78 to 85 & 22 to 15
Mid Potential : 70 to 78 & 30 to 22
Low Potential : 58 to 62 & 42 to 38
These zones highlight areas where RSI reacts in specific ways to price movement. Entering the High Potential range usually aligns with new highs or lows in price and often precedes continuation after a correction. In contrast, reactions inside the Mid Potential range frequently appear during clean ranges or channel structures. This approach focuses on momentum quality and structural behavior rather than classic overbought and oversold thresholds.
In summary, the logic behind the signals follows three principles :
Trend continuation, When RSI 7 enters the High Potential zone and price prints a new high or low, continuation after a correction becomes the most likely outcome.
Reversal or slowdown, When RSI exits the High Potential zone while price is reaching a previous high or low, the probability of a short term reversal increases.
Range behavior, In clean ranges or channel structures, RSI 7 typically reacts inside the Mid Potential zone and produces consistent swing responses.
🔵 How to Use
This method is based on observing the repeating behavior of RSI within momentum zones and identifying moments when price continues after a shallow correction or, conversely, when signs of slowing and reversal appear. RSI 7 plays the main role since it gives the most sensitive response to short term price changes. Its entry into or exit from a potential zone, combined with the position of price relative to recent highs and lows, forms the core of the signal logic. RSI 14 and RSI 42 provide higher timeframe confirmation and help evaluate the broader strength or weakness behind each movement.
🟣 Trend continuation after entering the High Potential zone
When RSI 7 reaches the High Potential zone while price forms a new high or low, the probability of continuation becomes very high. The typical sequence includes a short correction in price and a retreat of RSI toward the Mid Potential zone. As long as price structure remains intact and RSI turns upward again, continuation becomes the most likely scenario. As shown in the charts, price often expands strongly after this type of correction and breaks the previous high.
🟣 Reversal or slowdown after exiting the High Potential zone
If RSI 7 enters the High Potential zone but then exits while price is interacting with a previous high or low, conditions for a short term reversal appear. This behavior is clear in the charts, where price hits a supply or demand area and RSI can no longer return to the upper zone. The drop in RSI reflects weakening momentum and, when accompanied by a confirming candle, increases the chance of a reversal or at least a temporary pause.
🟣 Strong reversal after hitting the Mid Potential zone during deeper corrections
Sometimes price enters a deeper corrective phase and RSI 7 moves into or through the Mid Potential zone. When this occurs near a previous low, it can mark the start of a significant reversal. The charts show this pattern clearly, where RSI turns upward while price reacts to support. If the other RSI values show relative alignment, the probability of a strong rebound increases. This signal is often seen after fast declines and can mark the beginning of a recovery wave.
🟣 Range structure and repetitive reactions inside the Mid Potential zone
When price enters a clean range or channel, the behavior of RSI 7 changes completely. In such conditions, RSI repeatedly reacts inside the Mid Potential zone. Each time price touches the upper or lower boundary of the range, RSI approaches the upper or lower part of this zone as well. The result is a sequence of predictable swing reactions, perfectly suitable for mean reversion strategies. Breakouts in these environments also tend to show higher failure rates.
🟣 Sharp reactions and fast reversals at extreme levels (RSI near 90 or below 10)
Although this approach is not based on classic overbought and oversold logic, extremely high or low RSI readings such as ninety often produce strong immediate reactions in price. These conditions usually occur after sudden spikes or emotional breakouts. As visible in the charts, RSI collapses quickly after reaching such extremes and price often reverses sharply. While not a core signal, these moments add meaningful context to momentum interpretation.
🔵 Settings
RSI Setting : This section allows enabling or disabling the three RSI values, adjusting their calculation length and customizing their colors. It is designed to help separate short, medium and longer term momentum visually on the chart.
Zones Setting : This section controls the display of momentum zones and the color applied to each area. Adjusting these colors or toggling them on and off helps the trader visually track the intensity and structure of momentum.
Levels Setting : This section allows editing the numeric boundaries of the levels or showing and hiding each one individually. These levels form the visual framework for interpreting RSI behavior within the defined momentum zones.
🔵 Conclusion
Examining RSI behavior across different momentum zones shows that entering these ranges creates relatively consistent patterns in price movement. Reaching the High Potential zone often corresponds to later stages of a trend, where price has the strength to continue after a brief correction and structure remains intact. In contrast, reactions within the Mid Potential zone occur more frequently when the market transitions into a range or a limited movement phase, where repetitive oscillations dominate.
Overall, observing RSI inside these zones helps distinguish between trending movement, corrective phases and range conditions with greater clarity. Entry or exit from each zone provides insight into the underlying strength or weakness of momentum and reveals where the market is positioned within its movement cycle. This perspective, based on momentum regions rather than traditional values alone, offers a more refined understanding of price behavior and highlights the likely direction of the next move.
LETHINH Pinbar📌 PinBar Minimal Detector — Description (English)
PinBar Minimal Detector is a clean and efficient tool designed to detect high-quality pin bars based purely on candle geometry.
This script focuses on the core characteristics of a true pin bar: a long rejection wick and a small candle body, without adding unnecessary complexity. It is ideal for traders who want fast, reliable signal detection without noise.
⸻
✨ Key Features
• Detects both bullish and bearish pin bars.
• Fully configurable wick/body ratio.
• Optional filter for maximum opposite wick size.
• Option to ignore candles with extremely small bodies.
• Clean chart display with simple labels (“PIN”).
• Includes alert conditions for automated notifications (webhook, popup, email, etc.).
• Lightweight and optimized for fast execution on any timeframe.
⸻
🔍 Detection Logic
A candle qualifies as a bullish pin bar when:
• The lower wick is at least X times larger than the body.
• The upper wick is relatively small (optional filter).
• The body is above the minimum body threshold.
A candle qualifies as a bearish pin bar when:
• The upper wick is at least X times larger than the body.
• The lower wick is relatively small.
• The body meets the minimum size requirement.
This ensures that only candles showing strong rejection are highlighted.
⸻
⚙️ Input Parameters
1. wick/body ratio
Defines how many times longer the main wick must be compared to the candle body.
For example:
• 3.0 → wick must be at least 3× the body
• 4.0–5.0 → only very strong pin bars
2. opposite wick max (factor)
The maximum allowed size of the wick on the opposite side, relative to the body.
Example:
• 0.5 → opposite wick ≤ 50% of body
• Lower values = stricter filtering
3. min body px
Filters out candles with bodies that are too small (low volatility candles).
4. show labels
Enable or disable the “PIN” labels on the chart.
⸻
🚨 Alerts
The script includes two built-in alert conditions:
• Bullish PinBar Detected
• Bearish PinBar Detected
These alerts can be paired with:
• TradingView notifications
• Webhooks (for bots / automation)
• Email or SMS alerts
⸻
🎯 Use Cases
• Identify high-probability reversal points
• Enhance price action strategies
• Combine with S/R zones, supply & demand, trendlines, or order blocks
• Filter entries on lower timeframes while following higher-timeframe trend bias
⸻
📘 Notes
This is a minimalistic version by design.
If you want a more advanced version (confirmation candle, volume filter, multi-timeframe filtering, trend direction filtering, etc.), this script can be expanded easily
CRR HUT NEON TARGET You look for this combo:

Premarket&Regular Session VolumeThis script provides a clean and practical overview of premarket cumulative volume compared with regular session volume, helping traders instantly identify unusual early-session liquidity.
Features
Tracks total premarket volume from 4:00–9:30 ET
Shows cumulative premarket buildup as a smooth line
Helps detect early liquidity spikes that often lead to halts, gap-ups or momentum runs
Designed for intraday scalpers and small-cap/momentum traders
Why It’s Useful
Premarket activity frequently reveals hidden demand long before the opening bell.
When premarket volume significantly exceeds average daily levels, the probability of early spikes, volatility events, or continuation moves increases.
This indicator offers a simple but powerful visual tool for evaluating market interest before the open and comparing it with regular session volume
TRI - Multi-Timeframe FVGTRI - MULTI-TIMEFRAME FAIR VALUE GAPS v1.0.0
DESCRIPTION:
Advanced multi-timeframe Fair Value Gap (FVG) indicator that displays FVG zones from higher timeframes
on your current chart. Supports automatic or manual timeframe selection with comprehensive visualization
and alert system.
KEY FEATURES:
Multi-timeframe FVG detection - view FVG from any higher timeframe
Automatic timeframe selection - configure different FVG timeframes for each chart timeframe
Automatic mitigation detection - zones change color when price mitigates them
Configurable FVG threshold - filter out small gaps
Customizable visualization - colors, borders, labels, text colors
Smart zone inclusion - larger zones automatically remove smaller included zones
Memory efficient - automatic cleanup of expired zones
HOW IT WORKS:
A Fair Value Gap (FVG) is detected when there's a 3-candle pattern with a gap between candle 1 and
candle 3, indicating institutional order flow imbalances. Bullish FVG occurs when candle 3's low is
above candle 1's high (gap up), creating a demand zone shown in green. Bearish FVG occurs when candle
3's high is below candle 1's low (gap down), creating a supply zone shown in red.
The indicator uses request.security() to fetch data from the selected higher timeframe, detects FVG
patterns on that timeframe, and displays them on your current chart. FVG zones remain active until
price closes through them (mitigation), then change color and remain visible for a configurable
number of bars before disappearing.
TIMEFRAME CONFIGURATION:
Configure different FVG timeframes based on current chart timeframe:
1m-5m charts → Default 4h FVG
15m charts → Default 4h FVG
30m-1h charts → Default 4h FVG
4h charts → Default 4h FVG
Daily charts → Default Daily FVG
Weekly charts → Default Weekly FVG
Monthly charts → Default Monthly FVG
All timeframes are configurable via input settings.
BEST USE:
Works on all timeframes and asset classes. Particularly useful for intraday traders who want to see
higher timeframe FVG zones on their lower timeframe charts. FVG zones often act as support/resistance
and are frequently filled by price returning to rebalance the imbalance. Use them to identify potential
entry/exit points, stop-loss placement, and institutional order flow areas.

CRR Range Timer (Recarga)What this indicator does (CRR Range Timer – “Recarga”)
In simple words:
Defines a price range (your “reload zone”)
You set:
Zona Low → bottom of the range (e.g. 4210.0)
Zona High → top of the range (e.g. 4220.0)
Optional Tolerancia in ticks, to make the zone a bit wider.
The script automatically calculates zonaMin and zonaMax and checks if the current close is inside that zone.
Counts how long price stays inside that range
If close is inside the zone → enRango = true.
It counts consecutive bars inside the zone: barrasEnRango.
It converts that into time:
Uses your chart timeframe (timeframe.in_seconds(timeframe.period))
Calculates total seconds → minutes → then splits into:
Days (d)
Hours (h)
Minutes (m)
Example text: 2d 5h 30m means price has been stuck inside that range for 2 days, 5 hours and 30 minutes.
Shows a HUD table with the range information
It creates a small table (HUD) on the chart (position configurable: top/bottom left/center/right) with:
Header row
"CRR RANGE TIMER"
"Recarga"
Symbol (e.g. XAUUSD)
Row 2
"Estado" → status: "En RANGO" (inside) or "Fuera RANGO" (outside), with green/red color
The time it has been in range: Xd Yh Zm
Row 3
"Zona" → the exact price range zonaMin - zonaMax
"Barras: N" → number of bars inside the range
Draws a text label on the chart near price
When price is inside the zone and Mostrar texto sobre el precio is ON:
It shows a label like:
Recarga: 0d 3h 15m
Zona: 4210.00 - 4220.00
The label moves with the latest bar near the current price.
Optional background highlight
When mostrarBg is true and price is inside the range, the background of the chart in that bar is tinted (teal, very transparent).
This visually marks the “reload” area so you can see clearly when the market is stuck there.
How to use it to trade and “win” (trading logic idea)
This tool is not a buy/sell signal by itself.
It is a timer of accumulation / ranging in a specific price zone.
Think of it like this:
“The more time price spends inside a narrow zone, the stronger the potential move when it finally breaks out.”
Main use cases
Detect long consolidations before a big move
Choose an important zone: for example a NY range, a London range, or a zone between two key levels (support/resistance, supply/demand, OB, etc).
Set Zona Low and Zona High around that area.
Let the indicator count time:
If the HUD shows only a few minutes/bars, it’s a fresh range.
If the HUD shows many hours or even days, the market is “charging” (recargando) in that zone.
Trading idea:
You wait for a strong breakout of that zone after a good amount of “recarga” time.
The longer the recarga, the more aggressive the move can be when it finally escapes.
Filter bad trades inside dead ranges
Many traders lose money trading inside choppy ranges, especially in NY afternoon or Asia when the market is asleep.
With this indicator:
If you see the HUD saying En RANGO and 0d 2h 45m for example,
You know the market has been stuck almost 3 hours there.
You can create a rule for yourself:
“No new trades when price is inside my recarga box for more than X minutes/hours.”
That protects you from overtrading in low-volatility chop.
Objective measure of “how long it has been loading”
Instead of “it feels like it’s ranging”, you have a number:
On a 5m chart:
12 bars in range = 60 minutes
48 bars in range = 4 hours
On a 15m chart:
16 bars in range = 4 hours
The indicator does this math for you and displays it clearly.
Simple trading playbook example
You can adapt, but here’s a very simple way to use it:
Define your key zone
Use an important range: yesterday’s NY range, an accumulation box around a key level, or a consolidation before news.
Set Zona Low and Zona High to cover that area.
Optionally add Tolerancia (a few ticks) so small spikes don’t reset the timer.
Wait for recarga
Watch the HUD:
If time < 30–60 minutes → market still “loading”, small opportunities.
If time ≥ 2–4 hours (depending on timeframe and instrument) → stronger compression, potential for bigger breakout.
Plan your trade around the breakout
Don’t chase random candles inside the range.
Wait for:
A clear close above the high of the zone → bullish breakout idea.
A clear close below the low of the zone → bearish breakout idea.
Combine with your other tools (volume, structure, SMC, your CRR dashboard, etc) to confirm direction.
Risk management
Your stop can be placed:
Just inside the box (back inside the range = invalid breakout).
Target:
Previous swing levels, liquidity pools, or a multiple of your risk (1:2, 1:3, etc).
20MA / 200 MA Konvergenz & Elephant Bar FilterThe script creates a Momentum Filter designed to identify stocks that are currently exhibiting a transition from long-term price stability to short-term explosive volatility.
1. 🧘 Long-Term Stability Logic (Convergence)
The first part of the script identifies assets in a state of tight consolidation. This suggests that market participants have reached a temporary equilibrium, creating pent-up energy for a future trend.
A. Moving Average (MA) Proximity
The script checks if the fast MA (20 periods) and the slow MA (200 periods) are very close together.
It calculates the percentage difference, filtering for stocks where the separation between the two MAs is less than 2%. This defines the narrow range.
This condition confirms that the short-term and long-term price trends are essentially flat and aligned.
B. Price Nearness to the Long-Term MA
It further ensures that the current closing price is also within a tight range (e.g., less than 2%) of the 200-period MA.
This confirms the asset is actively trading at the center of the consolidation zone, simulating the "parallel" alignment of the MAs.
2. 💥 Explosive Breakout Logic (The Large Candle)
The second part of the script looks for the catalyst—an event that signals a sudden shift in supply and demand, ending the period of calm.
A. Above-Average Body Size
The script calculates the average absolute size of the candle body (the distance between open and close) over the last 20 periods.
It filters for stocks where the current candle body is at least three times (3x) larger than that historical average. This is the core signal of a powerful, convinced price move.
B. High Body-to-Range Ratio
To ensure the move was decisive and met little resistance, the script verifies that the candle body accounts for at least 85% of the candle's total range (high minus low).
This eliminates candles with long wicks (shadows), which would indicate volatility but a lack of directional conviction.
🎯 Summary
The combined screening identifies assets that have maintained long-term stability (MA convergence) but have just experienced a high-conviction, low-resistance breakout (Large Candle), indicating that a new, strong trend may be initiating.
Kinetic EMA & Volume with State EngineKinetic EMA & Volume with State Engine (EMVOL)
1. Introduction & Concept
The EMVOL indicator converts a dense family of EMA signals and volume flows into a compact “state engine”. Instead of looking at individual EMA lines or simple crossovers, the script treats each EMA as part of a kinetic vector field and classifies the market into interpretable states:
- Trend direction and strength (from a grid of prime‑period EMAs).
- Volume regime (expansion, contraction, climax, dry‑up).
- Order‑flow bias via delta (buy versus sell volume).
- A combined scenario label that summarises how these three layers interact.
The goal is educational: to help traders see that moving averages and volume become more meaningful when observed as a structure, not as isolated lines. EMVOL is therefore designed as a real‑time teaching tool, not as an automatic signal generator.
2. Volume Settings
Group: “Volume Settings”
A. Calculation Method
- Geometry (Source File) – Default mode.
Buy and sell volume are estimated from each candle’s geometry: the close is compared to the high/low range and the bar’s total volume is split proportionally between buyers and sellers. This approximation works on any TradingView plan and does not require lower‑timeframe data.
- Intrabar (Precise) – Reconstructs buy/sell volume using a lower timeframe via requestUpAndDownVolume(). The script asks TradingView for historical intrabar data (e.g., 15‑second bars) and builds buy/sell volume and delta from that stream. This mode can produce a more accurate view of order flow, but coverage is limited by your account’s history limits and the symbol’s available lower‑timeframe data.
B. Intrabar Resolution (If Precise)
- Intrabar Resolution (If Precise) – Selected only when the calculation method is “Intrabar (Precise)”. It defines which lower timeframe (for example 15S, 30S, 1m) is used to compute up/down volume. Smaller intrabar timeframes may give smoother and more granular deltas, but require more historical depth from the platform.
When “Intrabar (Precise)” is active, the dashboard’s extended section shows the resolution and the number of bars for which precise volume has been successfully retrieved, in the format:
- Mode: Intrabar (15S) – where N is the count of bars with valid high‑resolution volume data.
In Geometry mode this counter simply reflects the processed bars in the current session.
3. Kinetic Vector Settings
Group: “Kinetic Vector”
A. Vector Window
- Vector Window – Controls the temporal smoothing applied to the aggregated vectors (trend, volume, delta, etc.). Internally, each bar’s vector value is averaged with a simple moving window of this length.
- Shorter windows make the state engine more reactive and sensitive to local swings.
- Longer windows make the states more stable and better suited to higher‑timeframe structure.
B. Max Prime Period
- Max Prime Period – Sets the largest prime number used in the EMA grid. The engine builds a family of EMAs on prime lengths (2, 3, 5, 7, …) up to this limit and converts their slopes into angles.
- A higher limit increases the number of long‑horizon EMAs in the grid and makes the vectors sensitive to broader structure.
- A lower limit focuses the analysis on short- and medium‑term behaviour.
C. Price Source
- Price Source – The price series from which the kinetic EMA grid is built (e.g., Close, HLC3, OHLC4). Changing the source modifies the context that the state engine is reading but does not change the core logic.
4. State Engine Settings
Group: “State Engine Settings”
These inputs define how the continuous vectors are translated into discrete states.
A. Trend Thresholds
- Strong Trend Threshold – Value above which the trend vector is treated as “extreme bullish” and below which it is “extreme bearish”.
- Weak Trend Threshold – Inner boundary between neutral and directional conditions.
Roughly:
- |trend| < weak → Neutral trend state.
- weak < |trend| ≤ strong → Bullish/Bearish.
- |trend| > strong → Extreme Bullish/Extreme Bearish.
B. Volume Thresholds
- Volume Climax Threshold – Upper bound at which volume is considered “climax” (unusually expanded participation).
- Volume Expansion Threshold – Boundary for normal expansion versus contraction.
Conceptually:
- Volume above “expansion” indicates increasing activity.
- Volume near or above “climax” marks extreme participation.
- Negative values below the symmetric thresholds map to contraction and extreme dry‑up (liquidity vacuum) states.
C. Delta Thresholds
- Strong Delta Threshold – Cut‑off for extreme buying or selling dominance in delta.
- Weak Delta Threshold – Threshold for mild buy/sell bias versus neutral order flow.
Combined with the sign of the delta vector, these thresholds classify order flow as:
- Extreme Buy, Buy‑Dominant, Neutral, Sell‑Dominant, Extreme Sell.
D. State Hysteresis Bars
- State Hysteresis Bars – Minimum number of bars for which a new state must persist before the engine commits to the change. This prevents the dashboard from flickering during fast spikes and emphasises persistent market behaviour.
- Smaller values switch states quickly; larger values demand more confirmation.
5. Visual Interface
Group: “Visual Interface”
A. Ribbon Base Color
- Ribbon Base Color – Base hue for the multi‑layer EMA ribbon drawn around price. The script plots a dense grid of hidden EMAs and fills the gaps between them to form a semi‑transparent band. Narrow, overlapping bands hint at compression; wider separation hints at dispersion across EMA horizons.
B. Show Dashboard
- Show Dashboard – Toggles the on‑chart table which summarises the current state engine output. Disable this if you only want to keep the EMA ribbon and volume‑based structure on the price chart.
C. Color Theme
- Color Theme – Switch between a dark and light style for the dashboard background and text colours so that the table matches your chart theme.
D. Table Position
- Table Position – Places the dashboard at any corner or edge of the chart (Top / Middle / Bottom × Left / Centre / Right).
E. Table Size
- Table Size – Changes the dashboard’s text size (Tiny, Small, Normal, Large). Use a larger size on high‑resolution screens or when streaming.
F. Show Extended Info
- Show Extended Info – Adds diagnostic rows under the main state summary:
- Mode / Primes / Vector – Shows the current calculation mode (Geometry / Intrabar), the selected intrabar resolution and coverage in bars ( ), how many prime periods are active, and the vector window.
- Values – Displays the current aggregated vectors:
- P: price vector
- V: volume vector
- B: buy‑volume vector
- S: sell‑volume vector
- D: delta vector
Values are bounded between ‑1 and +1.
- Volume Stats – Prints the last bar’s raw buy volume, sell volume and delta as formatted numbers.
- Footer – A final row with the symbol and current time: #SYMBOL | HH:MM.
These extended rows are meant for inspecting how the engine is behaving under the hood while you scroll the chart and compare different assets or timeframes.
6. Language Settings
Group: “Language Settings”
- Select Language – Switches the entire dashboard between English and Turkish.
The underlying calculations and scenario logic are identical; only the labels, titles and comments in the table are translated.
7. Dashboard Structure & Reading Guide
The table summarises the current situation in a few rows:
1. System Header – Shows the script name and the active calculation method (“Geometry” or “Intrabar”).
2. Scenario Title – High‑level description of the current combined scenario (e.g., “Trending Buy Confirmed”, “Sideways Balanced”, “Bull Trap”, “Blow‑Off Top”). The background colour is derived from the scenario family (trending, compression, exhaustion, anomaly, etc.).
3. Bias / Trend Line – States the dominant trend bias derived from the trend vector (Extreme Bullish, Bullish, Neutral, Bearish, Extreme Bearish).
4. Signal / Consideration Line – A short sentence giving qualitative guidance about the current state (for example: continuation risk, exhaustion risk, trap‑like behaviour, or compression). This is deliberately phrased as a consideration, not as a direct trading signal.
5. Trend / Volume / Delta Rows – Three separate rows explain, in plain language, how the trend, volume regime and delta are classified at this bar.
6. Extended Info (optional) – Mode / primes / vector settings, current vector values, and last‑bar volume statistics, as described above.
Together, these rows are meant to be read as a narrative of what price, volume and order‑flow are doing, not as mechanical instructions.
8. State Taxonomy
The state engine organizes market behaviour in three stages.
8.1 Trend States (from the Price Vector)
- Extreme Bullish Trend – The prime‑grid price vector is strongly upward; most EMAs are aligned to the upside.
- Bullish Trend – Upward bias is present, but less extreme.
- Neutral Trend – EMAs are mixed or flat; price is effectively sideways relative to the grid.
- Bearish Trend – Downward bias, with the EMA grid sloping down.
- Extreme Bearish Trend – Strong downside alignment across the grid.
8.2 Volume Regime States (from the Volume Vector)
- Volume Climax (Buy‑Side) – Strong positive volume vector; participation is unusually high in the current direction.
- Volume Expansion – Activity above normal but below the climax threshold.
- Neutral Volume – No major expansion or contraction versus recent history.
- Volume Contraction – Activity is drying up compared with the past.
- Extreme Dry‑Up / Liquidity Vacuum – Very low participation; the market is thin and prone to slippage.
8.3 Delta Behaviour States (from the Delta Vector)
- Extreme Buy Delta – Buying pressure dominates strongly.
- Buy‑Dominant Delta – Buy volume exceeds sell volume, but not at an extreme.
- Neutral Delta – Buy and sell flows are roughly balanced.
- Sell‑Dominant Delta – Selling pressure dominates.
- Extreme Sell Delta – Aggressive, one‑sided selling.
8.4 Combined Scenario State s
EMVOL uses the three base states above to generate a single scenario label. These scenarios are designed to be read as context, not as entry or exit signals.
Trending Scenarios
1. Trending Buy Confirmed
- Bullish or extreme bullish trend, supported by expanding or climax volume and buy‑side delta.
- Educational idea: a healthy uptrend where both participation and order flow agree with the direction.
2. Trending Buy – Weak Volume
- Bullish trend, but volume is neutral, contracting or in dry‑up while delta is still buy‑side.
- Educational idea: price is advancing, yet participation is thinning; trend continuation becomes more fragile.
3. Trending Sell Confirmed
- Bearish or extreme bearish trend, with expanding or climax volume and sell‑side delta.
- Educational idea: strong downtrend with both volume and order‑flow confirmation.
4. Trending Sell – Weak Volume
- Bearish trend, but volume is neutral, contracting or very low while delta remains sell‑side.
- Educational idea: downside continues but with limited participation; vulnerable to short‑covering.
Sideways / Range Scenarios
5. Sideways Balanced
- Neutral trend, neutral delta, neutral volume.
- Classic range environment; low directional edge, suitable for observation and context rather than trend trading.
6. Sideways with Buy Pressure
- Neutral trend, but buy‑side delta is dominant or extreme.
- Range with latent accumulation: price may still appear sideways, but buyers are quietly more active.
7. Sideways with Sell Pressure
- Neutral trend with dominant or extreme sell‑side delta.
- Distribution‑like environment where price chops while sellers are gradually more aggressive.
Exhaustion & Volume Extremes
8. Exhaustion – Buy Risk
- Extreme bullish trend, volume climax and strong buy‑side delta.
- Educational idea: very strong up‑move where both participation and delta are already stretched; risk of exhaustion or blow‑off.
9. Exhaustion – Sell Risk
- Extreme bearish trend, volume dry‑up and strong sell‑side delta.
- Suggests one‑sided selling into increasingly thin liquidity.
10. Volume Climax (Buy)
- Neutral trend, neutral delta, but volume at climax levels.
- Often associated with a “big event” bar where participation spikes without a clear directional commitment.
11. Volume Climax (Sell / Dry‑Up)
- Neutral trend and neutral delta, while the volume vector indicates an extreme dry‑up.
- Highlights a stand‑still episode: very limited interest from both sides, increasing the sensitivity to future impulses.
Divergences
12. Divergence – Bullish Context
- Bullish or extreme bullish trend, but delta has faded back to neutral.
- Price trend continues while order‑flow conviction softens; can precede pauses or complex corrections.
13. Divergence – Bearish Context
- Bearish or extreme bearish trend with a neutral delta.
- Downtrend persists, but selling pressure no longer dominates as clearly.
Consolidation & Compression
14. Consolidation
- Default state when no specific pattern dominates and the market is broadly balanced.
- Educational use: treat this as a “no strong edge” label; focus on structure rather than direction.
15. Breakout Imminent
- Neutral trend with contracting volume.
- Compression phase where energy is building up; often precedes transitions into trending or shock scenarios.
Traps & Hidden Divergences
16. Bull Trap
- Bullish trend, with neutral or contracting volume and sell‑side delta.
- Price appears strong, but order‑flow shifts against it; often seen near fake breakouts or failing rallies.
17. Bear Trap
- Bearish trend, neutral or contracting volume, but buy‑side delta.
- Downtrend “looks” intact, while buyers become more aggressive underneath the surface.
18. Hidden Bullish Divergence
- Bullish trend, contracting volume, but strong buy‑side delta.
- Educational idea: price dips or slows while aggressive buyers step in, often inside an ongoing uptrend.
19. Hidden Bearish Divergence
- Bearish trend, volume expansion and strong sell‑side delta.
- Reinforced downside pressure even if price is temporarily retracing.
Reversal & Transition Patterns
20. Reversal to Bearish
- Neutral trend, volume climax and strong sell‑side delta.
- Suggests that heavy selling appears at the top of a move, turning a previously neutral or rising context into potential downside.
21. Reversal to Bullish
- Neutral trend, extreme volume dry‑up and strong buy‑side delta.
- Often associated with selling exhaustion where buyers start to take control.
22. Indecision Spike
- Neutral trend with extreme volume (climax or dry‑up) but neutral delta.
- Crowd participation changes sharply while order‑flow remains undecided; treat as an informational spike rather than a direction.
Extended Compression & Acceleration
23. Coiling Phase
- Neutral trend, contracting volume, and delta that is neutral or only mildly one‑sided.
- Extended compression where price, volume and delta all contract into a tightly coiled range, often preceding a strong move.
24. Bullish Acceleration
- Bullish trend with volume expansion and strong buy‑side delta.
- Uptrend not only continues but gains kinetic strength; educationally, this illustrates how trend, volume and delta align in the strongest phases of a move.
25. Bearish Acceleration
- Bearish trend with volume expansion and strong sell‑side delta.
- Mirror image of Bullish Acceleration on the downside.
Trend Exhaustion & Climax Reversal
26. Bull Exhaustion
- Bullish or extreme bullish trend, with contraction or dry‑up in volume and buy‑side or neutral delta.
- The move has already travelled far; participation fades while price is still elevated.
27. Bear Exhaustion
- Bearish or extreme bearish trend, with volume climax or contraction and sell‑side or neutral delta.
- Down‑move may be approaching a point where additional selling pressure has diminishing impact.
28. Blow‑Off Top
- Extreme bullish trend, volume climax and extreme buy delta all at once.
- Classic blow‑off behaviour: price, volume and order‑flow are simultaneously stretched in the same direction.
29. Selling Climax Reversal
- Extreme bearish trend with extreme volume dry‑up and extreme sell‑side delta.
- Marks a very aggressive capitulation phase that can precede major rebounds.
Advanced VSA / Anomaly Scenarios
30. Absorption
- Typically neutral trend with expanding or climax volume and extreme delta (either buy or sell).
- Educational focus: large participants are aggressively absorbing liquidity from the opposite side, while price remains relatively contained.
31. Distribution
- Scenario where volume remains elevated while directional conviction weakens and the trend slows.
- Represents potential “selling into strength” or “buying into weakness”, depending on the active side.
32. Liquidity Vacuum
- Combination of thin liquidity (extreme dry‑up) with a directional trend or strong delta.
- Highlights environments where even small orders can move price disproportionately.
33. Anomaly / Shock Event
- Triggered when the vector z‑scores detect rare combinations of price, volume and delta behaviour that deviate from their own historical distribution.
- Intended as a warning label for unusual events rather than a specific tradeable pattern.
9. Educational Usage Notes
- EMVOL does not produce mechanical “buy” or “sell” commands. Instead, it classes each bar into an interpretable state so that traders can study how trends, volume and order‑flow interact over time.
- A common exercise is to overlay your usual EMA crossovers, support/resistance or price patterns and observe which EMVOL scenarios appear around entries, exits, traps and climaxes.
- Because the vectors are normalized (bounded between ‑1 and +1) and then discretized, the same conceptual states can be compared across different symbols and timeframes.

Execution Heatmap v4.1 — AI EnhancedThis indicator is an AI‑style execution dashboard that compresses structure, momentum, volume, volatility, and risk into a compact heatmap panel plus BUY/SELL signals on the chart. It is specifically tuned for gold and silver, automatically adapting its thresholds to the volatility profile of XAU/GC and XAG/SI symbols.
Core architecture
The system builds a multi‑factor model in layers:
Adaptive structure engine: Tracks dynamic higher‑high / lower‑low progression using rolling reference highs and lows, classifying price as structural UP, DOWN, or NEUTRAL.
Precision VWAP bias: Uses VWAP with a small threshold band to filter out noise and label price as ABOVE, BELOW, or neutral relative to value.
Impulse & angle: Combines short‑term rate of change and normalized slope (price vs ATR over 5 bars) to detect directional thrust, then clamps values into
for stable scoring.
Volume, wicks, and patterns
Adaptive volume tiers: Uses a 20‑bar volume average with gold/silver‑specific multipliers to tag candles as SURGE, HIGH, NORMAL, or LOW volume, with distinct coloring for extremes.
Wick analytics: Measures upper/lower wick size vs total range to detect demand/supply style rejections and encode them as bullish or bearish wick signals.
AI pattern score: Blends structure, VWAP, impulse, wicks, and angle into a normalized pattern score, then classifies it as STRONG↑, NEU↑, NEU, NEU↓, or STRONG↓ with color‑coded emphasis.
AI scoring and prediction layer
Predictive engine: Uses a neural‑network‑style weighted sum of structure, VWAP, impulse, wicks, angle, volume, and pattern to generate a prediction score in
, then converts it into a percentage and arrow (↑, ↑↑, ↓, ↓↓, →) for intuitive directional bias.
Execution score: Aggregates key factors into an EXEC score (0–200+ style scale), color‑graded from weak (red) through medium (orange) to strong (green) execution context.
Uncertainty & risk: Separately models uncertainty (low impulse/angle or low conviction) and risk (fake breaks, VWAP position, uncertainty tier, low volume), then feeds them into a combined confidence calculation.
Final signal & confidence
Final classification:
BUY: High exec score, high confidence, and controlled risk.
SELL: Very low exec score, low confidence in upside, and acceptable risk.
WAIT: All other conditions where edge or clarity is insufficient.
Confidence bar: A textual mini‑bar (🟩 blocks) plus percentage shows how strong the current signal environment is, making it easy to visually gauge setup quality at a glance.
Professional heatmap panel
A two‑column table in the top‑right of the chart organizes the logic into layers:
Base layer: STRUCT, VWAP, IMPULSE, VOLUME.
AI layer: FAKE, REGIME (Trend/Pullback/Reverse/Chop), ANGLE.
Decision layer: PATTERN, PREDICT, EXEC, RISK, CONF, and FINAL direction.
Relative Strength Line by QuantxThe Relative Strength Line compares the price performance of a stock against a benchmark index (e.g., NIFTY, S&P 500, Bank Nifty, etc.).
It does not indicate momentum of the stock itself — it indicates whether the stock is outperforming or underperforming the market.
🔍 How To Read It
RSL Behavior Meaning
RSL moving up Stock is outperforming the benchmark (strong leadership)
RSL moving down Stock is underperforming the benchmark (weakness vs market)
RSL breaking above previous highs Strong institutional demand, leadership candidate
RSL trending sideways Stock is performing similar to the index (no leadership)
📈 Why It Matters
Institutional traders and top-performing strategies focus on stocks showing relative strength BEFORE price breakout.
A stock making new RSL highs even before a price breakout often becomes a top performer in the coming trend.

SuperTrend Oscillator MTF█ OVERVIEW
SuperTrend Oscillator MTF is a multi-timeframe version of the classic SuperTrend converted into an oscillator. Instead of drawing the SuperTrend line on the price chart, it displays the distance of the close from the SuperTrend line simultaneously for the current timeframe and two additional timeframes. This allows you to instantly see the trend direction and strength across three selected timeframes in a single window.
█ CONCEPT
The classic SuperTrend value is subtracted from price and normalized so that trend direction can be directly compared across different timeframes without switching charts.
- Value above zero = price below SuperTrend line → bearish trend
- Value below zero = price above SuperTrend line → bullish trend
- The further away from zero, the stronger the trend.
█ FEATURES
- Three SuperTrend Oscillator lines: current TF, TF1 and TF2
- Automatic detection of 3-timeframe agreement
- BUY and SELL labels that appear only when all three timeframes turn in the same direction at the same moment
- Circle signals on every zero-line cross of the current timeframe
- Configurable soft gradient fill (can be disabled)
- Zero line changes color (green/red/gray) depending on 3-TF agreement
- Fully customizable colors for each timeframe
- Built-in alerts for all signal types
█ HOW TO USE
Add the indicator to the chart → set two additional timeframes and adjust ATR Period and Factor to suit your trading style.
Main settings:
- ATR Period → default 10
- Factor → default 3.0 (higher = fewer signals)
- TF 1 and TF 2 → any timeframes (e.g. 1H+4H, 4H+D, D+W, etc.)
- Enable gradient → turn fill on/off
- Show BUY/SELL labels (3 TF agreement) → enable/disable the strongest signals
Interpretation:
Two types of signals:
- Green/red circles → current timeframe changes trend direction (faster signal)
- BUY/SELL labels → all three timeframes simultaneously switch to the same direction (strongest confluence)
- Additionally, the zero line turns green or red when all three trends are aligned.
█ APPLICATIONS
Perfect for:
- Trend-following with multi-timeframe confirmation
- Filtering false breakouts on lower timeframes
- Scalping & day trading (use fast circle signals)
- Swing & position trading (wait for full 3-TF agreement)
Best combined with:
- Support/resistance levels and supply/demand zones – enter long after a confirmed breakout and retest of a key level (e.g. Change of Character, Break of Structure, Order Block, 0.618–0.786 Fibonacci) only when the oscillator shows 3-TF agreement or at least a bullish circle. Hold the trade to the next significant resistance/supply zone.
- Volume and Volume Profile – confirm move strength with rising volume and high-volume nodes at the breakout level. Declining volume while moving away from zero may signal trend exhaustion.
- Classic oscillators (RSI, Stochastic, MACD) – use primarily for spotting divergences and overbought/oversold conditions. One of the safest exits is when a regular or hidden divergence appears on RSI/Stochastic in an extreme zone, even if SuperTrend Oscillator MTF still shows alignment.
█ NOTES
- Works on all markets and all timeframes
- BUY/SELL labels (3-TF agreement) are the cleanest and strongest signals
- Circle signals are faster but more prone to noise
- Higher ATR Period = fewer signals, higher quality
IDWM Master StructureExecutive Summary
The IDWM Master Structure is a Multi-Timeframe (MTF) trading tool designed to force discipline by aligning traders with the "Parent" trend. It functions by locking onto the "Completed Auction" of a higher timeframe candle (like a Daily or Weekly bar) and projecting that structure onto your lower timeframe chart. Its primary goal is to define the "Dealing Range"—the hard boundaries where value was previously established—so you don't get lost in the noise of smaller price movements.
1. The Principle of Completed Auctions (Hierarchy)
Most technical indicators curve dynamically with every price tick. This script acts differently because it relies on "Settled Arguments." A closed Daily candle represents a finished battle between buyers and sellers; the High and Low are the historical results of that battle.
To enforce this, the script automatically selects a "Parent" timeframe based on your view:
Scalping (charts below 15 minutes) uses the 4-Hour Auction.
Intraday trading (15 minutes to 4 Hours) uses the Daily Auction.
Swing trading (Daily chart) uses the Weekly Auction.
2. Liquidity Pools & The Sticky Range
The High and Low lines drawn by the indicator are not just support and resistance; they represent Liquidity Pools. In market theory, stop-losses (Sell Stops below Lows, Buy Stops above Highs) accumulate at these edges.
Smart money often pushes price just past these lines to grab this liquidity (a "Stop Hunt") before reversing direction. To account for this, the script uses a "Sticky Range" mechanism. It refuses to redraw the box simply because price touched the line. Instead, it uses an Average True Range (ATR) Buffer. A new structure is only formed if the candle closes decisively outside the range plus this volatility buffer. This ensures you are trading real breakouts, not liquidity sweeps.
3. Internal Range Mechanics (Premium vs. Discount)
Inside the Master Box, the script applies Equilibrium Theory to help with trade location.
The most important internal line is the Equilibrium (EQ), which marks the exact 50% point of the range.
Premium Zone (Above EQ): Price is mathematically "expensive" relative to the recent range. Algorithms generally look to establish Short positions here.
Discount Zone (Below EQ): Price is considered "cheap." Algorithms generally look to establish Long positions here.
It also plots the Master Open, which acts as a "Line in the Sand." If price is currently trading above the Master Open, the higher timeframe candle is Green (Bullish), suggesting longs have a higher probability. If below, the candle is Red (Bearish).
4. Wick Theory (Failed Auctions)
The script places special emphasis on the wicks of the Master Candle because a wick represents a "Failed Auction"—a price level the market tried to explore but ultimately rejected.
The indicator highlights the background of the wick area (from the High to the Body). On a retest, these zones often act as supply or demand blocks because the market remembers the previous failure.
It also calculates the "Consequent Encroachment," which is the 50% midpoint of the wick. The rule of thumb here is that if a candle body can close past 50% of a wick, the rejection is nullified, and price will likely travel to fill the entire wick.
5. Energy Expansion (Breakout Targets)
Market energy transfers from Consolidation (inside the box) to Expansion (the breakout). When the price finally breaks the "Sticky Range" (confirming via the ATR buffer), the script projects where that energy will go.
It uses the height of the previous range to calculate Fibonacci extensions. Specifically, it targets the 1.618 Extension, often called the "Golden Ratio." This is a statistically significant level where expansion moves tend to exhaust themselves and reverse.
6. Safety Protocol: Live Detection
A dashboard monitors the state of the parent candle. If the text turns Magenta with a warning symbol, it means the Higher Timeframe candle is "Live" (still forming).
Trading off a live structure is considered higher risk because the "Auction" isn't finished—the High or Low can still shift. The safest approach is to trade when the dashboard indicates a standard, locked, historical structure.
