Wyckoff Smart Money Pro [MTF]Wyckoff Smart Money Pro detects trading ranges, phases, and events from the Wyckoff method and confirms them with VSA (Volume Spread Analysis), divergence checks, and a composite “smart money” strength index. It generates optional buy/sell signals only when multiple conditions align (phase, VSA, CO strength, effort vs. result, time/volume filters). The dashboard, POC/Value Area, and MTF backdrop help you manage context and risk in real time.
What this indicator does
Wyckoff Smart Money Pro is a multi-timeframe Wyckoff tool that:
⦁ Finds accumulation/distribution ranges and tracks Phases A–E.
⦁ Labels Wyckoff events (PS, SC, AR, ST, Spring/Test, SOS, LPS, UTAD, SOW, LPSY, TS…) and VSA patterns (No Demand/Supply, Stopping Volume, Upthrust, etc.).
⦁ Computes a Composite Operator (CO) Strength score from price/volume behavior to approximate “smart money” bias.
⦁ Adds divergence, effort vs. result, and a volume profile (POC & 70% value area) inside the detected range.
⦁ Provides buy/sell signals only when a configurable confluence is present (events + VSA + CO + EVR + phase + filters).
⦁ Supports MTF context (with a safe HTF resolver and fallbacks) and an Info Dashboard to summarize the current state.
It is designed to make the Wyckoff workflow visual and rules-based without promising results or automating decisions.
How it works (methods & calculations)
1) Range & Phase model
⦁ A sliding lookback searches for a valid range (recent highest high/lowest low), requiring width within 2–10× ATR(14) and a minimum bar count inside the bounds.
⦁ Once a range is active, the script derives Creek/Ice/Mid/Quartiles and classifies bars into Wyckoff Phases A–E using event recency (barssince) and where price sits relative to the range.
⦁ The background color reflects the current Phase; optional MTF events (from the chosen HTF) tint the background lightly for higher-timeframe context.
2) Wyckoff & VSA event engine
⦁ Events include PS, SC, AR, ST, Spring, Test, SOS, LPS, PSY, BC, UTAD, SOW, LPSY, TS, plus minor/multiple variants and Creek/Ice jumps.
⦁ VSA patterns detect No Demand/No Supply, Stopping Volume, Buying/Selling Climax, Upthrust/Pseudo Upthrust, Bag Holding, Shake-Out, Volume Dry-Up, etc., from spread vs. average spread and volume vs. average volume with tunable thresholds.
3) Smart-money (CO) Strength
⦁ CO Strength (0–100) blends: relative volume on up/down bars, professional accumulation/distribution, no-supply/no-demand, stopping volume, Springs/UTADs and Tests, SOS/SOW, price’s position inside the range, and volume-delta vs. its MA.
⦁ Persistent accumCount / distCount counters smooth temporary noise.
4) Divergence & Effort-vs-Result
⦁ Price vs. cum volume-delta divergence highlights weakening pushes.
⦁ EVR flags “High effort / no result” and potential Bullish/Bearish reversals, or “Low effort / high result” moves that are often unsustainable.
5) Volume Profile (inside range)
⦁ A 50-bin profile accumulates volume across the detected range to derive POC, VAH/VAL (70% value area). Lines update as the active range evolves.
6) Multi-Timeframe (MTF) safety
⦁ getHTF() converts your multiplier to a valid Pine timeframe string (e.g., 60, 240, 2D, 1W), and the script falls back to current timeframe values if an HTF request returns na.
⦁ If you enter a Custom HTF, it must be strictly higher than the chart’s timeframe (validated at runtime).
7) Signals & risk model
⦁ Signals are not tied to any single pattern. A buy may require Spring/Test/Shake-out/Creek Jump or SOS plus confirmation (VSA, CO>60, Phase C/D, divergence/EVR context).
⦁ Sell is symmetrical (UTAD/Failed Spring/SOW/Ice Jump + VSA + CO<40 + Phase C/D).
⦁ Minimum confidence is configurable; SL/TP and R:R lines are drawn from range edges or recent bar extremes.
⦁ Filters: trading hours, weekend avoidance, and a minimum volume threshold (relative to average) are available to suppress low-quality contexts.
⦁ Alerts include all major events, divergences, structure/phase changes, and the gated Buy/Sell signals (with a cooldown to reduce alert spam).
Inputs (key ones you’ll actually use)
⦁ Display Settings: toggle ranges, phases, events, VSA, signals, dashboard.
⦁ MTF: Enable HTF, set Multiplier or a Custom HTF (must be higher than current).
⦁ Range Detection: period / min bars / pivot strength.
⦁ VSA: volume sensitivity & climax multiplier.
⦁ Signal Settings: minimum confidence, risk/reward labels.
⦁ Advanced Filters: trading hours, weekend avoidance, and Min Volume Filter (× avg).
⦁ Colors: phase backgrounds, structure colors, and line styling.
How to use (practical flow)
1. Choose a symbol & timeframe you normally analyze (e.g., 5–60m for entries, 4H/D for context).
2. If using MTF, pick a multiplier (e.g., 5×) or a Custom HTF (e.g., 240/4H).
3. Wait for a range to form; watch Phase and CO Strength on the Dashboard.
4. When events (e.g., Spring/Test in Phase C or UTAD in distribution) appear with favorable VSA, CO, EVR, and volume/time filters, consider the signal and review R:R lines.
5. Use POC/VA and Creek/Ice/Mid as structure references; manage risk around the range edge that generated the setup.

Notes, limits & best practices
⦁ This is not a buy/sell system; it’s a context & confirmation tool. Combine with your plan, risk limits, and execution criteria.
⦁ Long, illiquid, or news-driven bars can distort volume/spread logic; filters help but cannot eliminate this.
⦁ For MTF, if an exchange doesn’t support a specific HTF, the script falls back safely to current TF values to avoid na-propagation.
⦁ Dashboard rows/size/position are user-configurable to keep charts uncluttered.
Changelog (what’s new in this version)
⦁ MTF safety & validation (Custom HTF must be above current; graceful fallbacks for request.security() na results).
⦁ Performance caching for close position & up/down bar flags; drawing cleanup to stay under label/line limits.
⦁ Volume Profile upgraded to 50 bins; VA algorithm adjusted accordingly.
⦁ Signal gating with time/day/volume filters and alert cooldown to reduce noise.
⦁ Bug guards for parameter conflicts (e.g., rangeMinBars cannot exceed rangePeriod).

[AlbaTherium] Wabi-Sabi Wyckoff Flow Structure Map MTF[1.0.42] Wabi-Sabi Wyckoff Flow Structure Map
Master the Hidden Geometry of Market Campaigns – Accumulation, Distribution, and the Laws That Govern Them
Introduction
The Wabi-Sabi Wyckoff Flow Structure Map is a software-engineered analytical framework that visualizes the flow of institutional market behavior through the lens of the Wyckoff Method. This tool automates the detection of trading ranges, maps the phases of accumulation/distribution, and extrapolates price objectives .
The Wabi-Sabi Wyckoff Flow Structure Map is a meticulous implementation of the principles of Richard D. Wyckoff , interpreted through the lens of market structure and volume dynamics. This tool aims to identify, contextualize, and map out accumulation and distribution zones by interpreting the composite operator's intended path in financial markets.
It is not merely an indicator-it is a structural compass, guiding you through the architecture of smart money campaigns.
Chapter 1: The Architecture of Market Campaigns
1.1 From Noise to Narrative
Markets do not move randomly. They are orchestrated campaigns-methodically executed by informed operators. The identifies these campaigns as they unfold across:
Accumulation
Markup
Distribution
Markdown
Each is grounded in Wyckoff’s structural logic and revealed in real time.
1.2 Who Is the Composite Operator, Composite Man?
The Composite Operator (CO), Composite Man (CM) represents dominant market participants-institutions with the capacity to engineer price movement. By dissecting trading ranges, the script deciphers their behavior through:
Event-based mapping (SC, ST, Spring, AR, UTAD, etc.)
Phase progression (Phase A to E)
PnF-based directional forecasting
The CO leaves footprints. This script reads them.
Chapter 2: Wyckoff’s Core Laws, Brought to Life
2.1 The Law of Supply and Demand
Every price bar reflects this law. The tool highlights where supply is absorbed and demand emerges, revealing the true balance of power behind the chart.
2.2 The Law of Cause and Effect
Accumulation and distribution ranges are not noise-they are preparation. By measuring their width, the script calculates PnF-based targets for the post-breakout phase, offering traders quantified projections rooted in structure.
2.3 The Law of Effort vs. Result
Effort = volume.
Result = price movement.
Discrepancies between the two-expose market turning points.
This script captures those moments within Wyckoff's structural context, not isolated volume spikes.
Chapter 3: Real-Time Interpretation of Trading Ranges
3.1 Automatic Schematic Mapping
The tool auto-generates Wyckoff structures:
Detects and maps Trading Ranges dynamically
Labels Wyckoff events (SC, ST, AR, Spring, UT, LPS, etc.)
Identifies current phase (Phase B, C, D, E) via real-time bias detection
3.1.1.Core Components
a. Structural Framing
The script autonomously detects the boundaries of a trading range (TR), guided by pivot highs and lows derived from Volume Spread Analysis (VSA) dynamics and price behavior.
b. Automatic Rally (AR) & Selling Climax (SC)
These foundational events are systematically computed and highlighted using volume-weighted price interaction. The Selling Climax defines the lower bound of the TR, while the Automatic Rally sets the resistance zone.
c. Secondary Tests (ST)
The algorithm traces the STs to validate demand/supply balance and the structural integrity of the TR. These are tagged with precision to avoid false positives.
d. Spring / Upthrust Actions
Wyckoffian springs and upthrusts are flagged using deviations below support (spring) or above resistance (upthrust) coupled with volume exhaustion or climax events.
e. Creek & Ice Visualization
Inspired by Wyckoff’s narrative metaphor, the script maps the 'Creek' (High of the Range flow) and 'Ice' (Low of the Range flow), guiding the observer through breakout or breakdown conditions.
f. Sign of Strength (SOS) / Sign of Weakness (SOW)
These turning points are confirmed via expansion in spread and volume. SOS is a bullish confirmation of accumulation resolution, while SOW indicates bearish continuation.
g. LPS & LPSY
The Last Point of Support (LPS) and Last Point of Supply (LPSY) are precisely mapped post-confirmation of breakout or breakdown. Their presence strengthens the bias of the ongoing structural phase.
h. Phase Annotation
Each zone within the TR is annotated based on Wyckoff’s five-phase logic (A to E). This includes climactic action in Phase A, testing in Phase B, spring/UTAD in Phase C, confirmation in Phase D, and exit in Phase E.
3.2 Multi-Timeframe Tracking
Observe the interplay of nested structures across several timeframes. Whether you’re tracking a micro accumulation on 1-min or macro distribution on the 1H, the script integrates both for a full-spectrum view.
3.3 Point-and-Figure Price Targeting
Using Wyckoff’s Law of Cause and Effect, the tool projects price targets based on the range width. Outputs are displayed directly on the chart, aiding in:
Profit-taking zones
Invalidations
R/R planning with structure-based confidence
Chapter 4: Applying Like a Wyckoffian
4.1 Configuration Best Practices
Timeframes: 1–5min for tactical intraday, 15min–4H for swing campaigns
Detection Radius: Control how deep the script searches for structural pivots
Modes: Choose between Delta (volume shifts) and Normal (price formations)
4.2 Dashboard & Event Tracker
The Bias Dashboard displays:
The current dominant phase (e.g. “Phase C Test” or “Late Phase D”)
Key events (AR, ST, Spring, LPS)
Whether current price action supports a continuation or Climax
4.3 Alerts and Customization
Configure alerts to monitor:
New TR detection across up to 6 timeframes
Key structural events like Spring, UTAD, or SOS
Completion of cause zones with target projection triggered
Chapter 5: Use Cases and Strategic Implementation
5.1 Spotting Reversals Before the Breakout
Use the script to:
Enter near Springs (accumulation) or UTADs (distribution)
Identify retests as Last Points of Support/Resistance
Confirm or invalidate breakout attempts using the schematic context
5.2 Confirming Institutional Engagement
Recognize institutional footprints through:
Multiple STs (Testing for supply)
Strong SOS, SOW / LPS combinations
Absence of follow-through = Absorption
The Flow Map helps distinguish retail chase from professional intent.
Conclusion
The Wabi-Sabi Wyckoff Flow Structure Map is an elite market structure decoder for traders who operate on logic, not emotion. Grounded in Wyckoff’s time-tested methodology and enhanced with modern automation, it transforms the invisible structure of price action into a readable, tradeable roadmap.
“Structure precedes movement. Those who read structure, anticipate motion. Those who chase motion, miss the meaning .

▶ Functions:
SC: Marks panic selling, often with high volume.
AR: Sharp rebound after SC, reflecting short-term demand.
ST(a): Retest of SC lows to confirm weakening supply.
▶ Importance:
Phase A signals the end of a downtrend. The SC shows exhaustion, while the AR and ST confirm that sellers are losing control. Customizable trend detection (e.g., Ichimoku Cloud or FTD) ensures alignment with broader market context or your preference.
Phase B: Building the Accumulation Range
▶ Key events: SOS (Pha B), ST (Pha B).
▶ Functions:
SOS(b): A rally breaking above the AR, indicating strong demand.
ST(b): Retests of SC / ST(a) / Fib level to sweep liquidity (trap late sellers).
▶ Importance:
Phase B confirms the sideways range. SOS reflects institutional buying, while ST(b) traps sellers. Sweeping SC / ST(a) / Fib level would help identify false breakdowns.
Phase C: Spring & Test
▶ Key events: Spring (false breakdown), Test (confirmation).
▶ Functions:
Spring: A deliberate drop below Phase B support to eliminate weak traders.
Test: Retest of the Spring low to confirm sustained demand.
▶ Importance:

DISCLAIMER
This indicator is not financial advice, it can only help traders make better decisions. There are many factors and uncertainties that can affect the outcome of any endeavor, and no one can guarantee or predict with certainty what will occur. Therefore, one should always exercise caution and judgment when making decisions based on past performance.
Auto Wyckoff Schematic [by DanielM]This indicator is designed to automatically detect essential components of Wyckoff schematics. This tool aims to capture the critical phases of liquidity transfer from weak to strong hands, occurring before a trend reversal. While the Wyckoff method is a comprehensive and a very nuanced approach, every Wyckoff schematic is unique, making it impractical to implement all its components without undermining the detection of the pattern. Consequently, this script focuses on the essential elements critical to identifying these schematics effectively.
Key Features:
Swing Detection Sensitivity:
The sensitivity of swing detection is adjustable through the input parameter. This parameter controls the number of past bars analyzed to determine swing highs and lows, allowing users to fine-tune detection based on market volatility and timeframes.
Pattern Detection Logic:
Accumulation Schematic:
Detects consecutive lower swing lows, representing phases like Selling Climax (SC) and Spring, which often precede a trend reversal upward. After the final low is identified, a higher high is detected to confirm the upward trend initiation.
Labeled Key Points:
SC: Selling Climax, marking the beginning of the accumulation zone.
ST: Secondary Test during the schematic.
ST(b): Secondary Test in phase B.
Spring: The lowest point in the schematic, signaling a final liquidity grab.
SOS: Sign of Strength, confirming a bullish breakout.
The schematic is outlined visually with a rectangle to highlight the price range.
Distribution Schematic:
Detects consecutive higher swing highs, which indicate phases such as Buying Climax (BC) and UTAD, often leading to a bearish reversal. After the final high, a lower low is detected to confirm the downward trend initiation.
Labeled Key Points:
BC: Buying Climax, marking the beginning of the distribution zone.
ST: Secondary Test during the schematic.
UT: Upthrust.
UTAD: Upthrust After Distribution, signaling the final upward liquidity grab before a bearish trend.
SOW: Sign of Weakness, confirming a bearish breakout.
The schematic is visually outlined with a rectangle to highlight the price range.
Notes:
Simplification for Practicality: Due to the inherent complexity and variability of Wyckoff schematics, the indicator focuses only on the most essential features—liquidity transfer and key reversal signals.
Limitations: The tool does not account for all components of Wyckoff's method (e.g., minor phases or nuanced volume analysis) to maintain clarity and usability.
Unique Behavior: Every Wyckoff schematic is different, and this tool is designed to provide a simplified, generalized approach to detecting these unique patterns.
Wyckoff Springs [QuantVue]The Wyckoff Springs indicator is designed to identify potential bullish reversal patterns known as "springs" in the Wyckoff Method. A Wyckoff spring occurs when the price temporarily dips below a support level, then quickly rebounds, suggesting a false breakdown and a
potential buying opportunity.
How it works:
Pivot detection:
The indicator identifies pivot lows based on the specified pivot length.
These pivot points are stored and analyzed for potential spring patterns.
Volume and Range Checks:
If volume confirmation is enabled, the indicator checks if the current volume exceeds a threshold based on the average volume over the specified period.
The indicator ensures that the price undercuts the defined trading range before confirming a spring pattern.
Spring Identification
The indicator checks for price conditions indicative of a Wyckoff spring: a temporary dip below a pivot low followed by a close above it. The recovery must take place within 3 bars.
If these conditions are met, a spring label is placed below the bar.
Features:
Pivot Length:
The user can set the pivot length to match any style of trading.
Volume Confirmation:
An optional feature where the user can specify if volume confirmation is required for a spring signal.
Volume threshold can be set to determine what constitutes significant volume compared to the average volume over a specified period. By default it is set to 1.5

⭐️ Wyckoff Price Cycle
According to Wyckoff, the market can be understood and anticipated through detailed analysis of supply and demand, which can be ascertained from studying price action, volume and time. As a broker, he was in a position to observe the activities of highly successful individuals and groups who dominated specific issues; consequently, he was able to decipher, via the use of what he called vertical (bar) and figure (Point and Figure) charts, the future intentions of those large interests. An idealized schematic of how he conceptualized the large interests' preparation for and execution of bull and bear markets is depicted in the figure below. The time to enter long orders is towards the end of the preparation for a price markup or bull market (accumulation of large lines of stock), while the time to initiate short positions is at the end of the preparation for price markdown.
