BTC - Metcalfes Law (Deviation)Title: BTC – Metcalfe's Law (Deviation) | RM
Overview & Philosophy
The BTC – Metcalfe's Law (Deviation) is a fundamental valuation oscillator that answers one of the most important questions in network economics: "Is the current price justified by the number of active users?" Metcalfe's Law states that the value of a network is proportional to the square of the number of its connected users (Value = Users squared). In the context of Bitcoin, this means that as the number of active addresses grows linearly, the network's fair value should grow exponentially.This script identifies periods where Bitcoin’s market capitalization has become "overextended" or "undervalued" relative to its actual network activity.
Methodology
The indicator performs a rolling log-log regression (Ordinary Least Squares) between Bitcoin's Market Cap and its Active Address count over a 730-day (2-year) window.
1. The Regression: The script calculates the statistical relationship: ln(Market Cap) = alpha + beta * ln(Active Addresses)
2. Pure Metcalfe vs. Generalized Metcalfe:
• Pure Metcalfe (Beta=2): By default, the script enforces a slope of 2.0, adhering to the classic mathematical law.
• Dynamic Fit: Users can disable the "Enforce Metcalfe" setting to let the model find the best historical fit (often resulting in a Beta between 1.5 and 1.8).
3. The Deviation (The Signal):
The resulting line represents the Log-Deviation from Fair Value.
• A value of 0.0 means Bitcoin is priced exactly according to its network utility.
• Positive values indicate a "valuation premium".
• Negative values indicate a "valuation discount".
How to Read the Chart
🔴 The Red Zone (Overvaluation > 1.0)
Meaning: The Market Cap has outpaced the growth of active users. Historically, these peaks represent speculative bubbles or cycle tops where price is driven by hype rather than utility.
🟢 The Green Zone (Undervaluation < -0.25)
Meaning: The network is being utilized, but the price has crashed below its fundamental support. Historically, these "Utility Floors" have marked the most profitable accumulation zones in Bitcoin’s history.
🟠 The Orange Line (Fair Value Transition)
Meaning: The market is in a healthy growth phase, moving in lockstep with user adoption.
Strategy & Interpretation
This tool is a Macro Compass . It is designed to help investors stay objective during periods of extreme market emotion.
• In a Bull Market: Watch for the deviation to hit the Red Zone. This is your signal that the "Network Utility" can no longer support the price, and a major correction is likely imminent.
• In a Bear Market: Look for the "Green Floor." When the price stays below the -0.25 level despite stable user activity, it suggests a massive mismatch between value and price—a classic buy signal.
Settings
• Regression Window (Default: 730 Days): Chosen to capture mid-to-long term cycle trends. Adjust to shorter timeframes for more dynamic behavior or longer timeframes (like 1460 Days) to catch longer cycles.
• Enforce Metcalfe: Toggle between the classic law (Beta=2) and a dynamic fit.
• Smoothing: A 30-day SMA is applied to active addresses to filter out daily "jitter."
Credits
• Robert Metcalfe: For the original law of network utility.
• Willy Woo & Greg Wheatley: For their pioneering work in applying Metcalfe's Law specifically to Bitcoin's valuation.
Important Data Requirement
To function, this indicator requires a data feed for Active Addresses . By default, it is set to GLASSNODE:BTC_ACTIVEADDRESSES . Please Note: On-chain data usually requires a premium vendor subscription on TradingView (e.g., Glassnode, IntoTheBlock, or CryptoQuant). If you do not have a subscription, the indicator will display a "Missing Data" warning.
⚠️ Note: This indicator is optimized for the Daily (1D) Timeframe. Please switch your chart to 1D for accurate signal reading.
Disclaimer
This script is for research and educational purposes only. It relies on third-party on-chain data. Fundamental valuation is only one piece of the puzzle; market dynamics can remain irrational longer than metrics can predict.

ORB Breakout & RetestORB Breakout & Breakdown Indicator - Complete Opening Range Strategy
Description :
The ORB (Opening Range Breakout) Breakout & Retest Indicator is a simple tool designed to identify opening range breakouts and breakdowns with retest confirmation. This indicator works on ANY timeframe while automatically analyzing 1-minute price action to detect precise entry signals.
What makes this indicator unique:
- ✅ Multi-Timeframe ORB Analysis - Simultaneously tracks 5-min, 15-min, and 30-min opening ranges
- ✅ Smart Retest Logic - Filters false breakouts by requiring price to retest and confirm the level
- ✅ Works on Any Chart Timeframe - View on 5-min, 15-min, 1-hour, or daily charts while getting 1-minute precision
- ✅ Both Long & Short Signals - Detects bullish breakouts AND bearish breakdowns
- ✅ Customizable Alerts - Get notified when confirmed setups occur
- ✅ Clean Visual Display - Compact table showing all ORB levels and signal status
How it Works:
Opening Range Detection :
- 5-Min ORB: Captures high/low from 9:30-9:35 AM
- 15-Min ORB: Captures high/low from 9:30-9:45 AM
- 30-Min ORB: Captures high/low from 9:30-10:00 AM
Breakout Confirmation (3-Step Process) :
1. Initial Break - Price closes above ORB High (or below ORB Low for shorts)
2. Retest - Price pulls back to retest the broken level
3. Confirmation - Price breaks through again, confirming the trend
This retest requirement dramatically reduces false signals and helps you enter trades with better risk/reward.
Perfect For :
- Day traders looking for opening range strategies
- Scalpers who need precise entry signals
- Swing traders identifying strong intraday momentum
- Anyone trading stocks, futures, forex, or crypto during market hours

MGC1! Sniper Levels [NY Midnight + PDH/PDL + VWAP]This script, titled "MGC1! Sniper Levels ," is a specialized institutional-grade technical indicator designed for intraday trading on Micro Gold (MGC1!) futures. It merges Time & Price theory with Statistical Volatility to create a comprehensive roadmap for high-probability "Sniper" entries.
Core Technical Components
NY Midnight Pivot: Automatically identifies and plots the New York Midnight opening price. This level serves as the "True Open" for the daily session, helping traders determine whether the market is in a Premium or Discount zone relative to the daily start.
Previous Day Structure (PDH/PDL): Displays the Previous Day’s High and Low using a background security call. These levels are primary targets for Liquidity Sweeps (trapping retail traders) before a reversal occurs.
Advanced Session VWAP: Calculates the Volume Weighted Average Price starting from the session open. Unlike a standard moving average, VWAP represents the true fair value based on actual capital commitment.
Standard Deviation Extensions (SD 1, 2, 3): Plots three layers of volatility bands based on the variance of price and volume.
SD1 & SD2: Act as dynamic support and resistance within normal market conditions.
SD3 (Extreme Zones): Highlights the "Extreme Long" and "Extreme Short" zones, representing areas where 99.7% of price action is statistically contained, often leading to sharp mean-reversion moves.
Key Features & Interface
Customizable Labels: Includes a specific toggle to show or hide Standard Deviation labels. This allows for a cleaner chart when focusing on ICT/SMC price action while maintaining the colored "Zones" for visual context.
Real-Time Vignettes: High-contrast labels appear at the right edge of the price action, providing the exact numerical value of every key level (VWAP, PDH, NY Midnight) for immediate order execution.
Previous VWAP Close: Plots the final VWAP value from the prior session. This level often acts as a magnetic "fair value" target during the current session's open.
Strategic Trading Application
The script is built for the Gold Sniper MGC1! persona to identify "Smart Money" reversals. A typical setup involves waiting for price to reach an SD3 Extreme Zone that coincides with the PDH or PDL. Once the price "sweeps" these levels and shows a Market Structure Shift (MSS) back toward the VWAP, a high-probability trade is triggered.
Golden Zone Structure [Kodexius]Golden Zone Structure is a ZigZag based market structure and Fibonacci tool designed to make swing context easier to read directly on the price chart. It detects meaningful pivot highs and lows, labels the evolving structure (HH, HL, LH, LL, including equal highs and lows), and automatically projects a Fibonacci map across the most recent completed swing.
Instead of forcing you to manually anchor Fib tools after every new leg, the script rebuilds levels each time a fresh pivot is confirmed. This makes it well suited for traders who focus on swing continuation, pullback depth, and reaction zones where liquidity and orderflow often concentrate.
A key emphasis is the Golden Zone highlight. The indicator shades the zone that is most relevant to the current swing context so you can quickly spot where a retracement is approaching a higher probability reaction area, without cluttering the chart with too many permanent objects.
The tool is intentionally visual and configurable. You can choose pivot source (High/Low or Close), adjust swing sensitivity via ZigZag period, switch color themes, and decide how much detail you want on screen (levels, zigzag lines, labels).
Optional trading markers can be enabled for users who want a lightweight “zone interaction” prompt. These markers are not intended as a standalone trading system. They are meant to complement your own confirmation rules (structure alignment, volume, higher timeframe bias, or price action triggers).
🔹Features
🔸 ZigZag Swing Engine
- Uses a configurable ZigZag period to filter noise and confirm swing points only when the lookback logic validates the move.
Supports different pivot sources (High/Low or Close) so you can choose between cleaner structure or more reactive behavior depending on the instrument.
Optional ZigZag leg drawing to visualize swing flow without clutter.
🔸 Market Structure Labels (HH, HL, LH, LL + Equals)
- Automatically labels each confirmed pivot based on how it compares to the prior pivot of the same type.
High side classification: H, HH, LH, EH.
Low side classification: L, HL, LL, EL.
Equal highs and lows help reveal potential liquidity pools and “magnet” areas where price often reacts or breaks with intent.
🔸 Auto Fibonacci Map on the Active Swing
- Rebuilds Fibonacci levels every time a new pivot is confirmed, keeping the projection aligned with the most recent completed leg.
Core retracement levels: 0.236, 0.382, 0.500, 0.618, 0.786.
Extension levels: 1.272 and 1.618 for expansion targeting and continuation mapping.
Optional price labels on each level, formatted to tick size so levels remain readable across markets.
🔸 Golden Zone Highlighting (Context Aware)
- Highlights the most relevant retracement band with a soft fill so you can spot “zone approach” moments at a glance.
The zone selection adapts to swing context, focusing on a different retracement region depending on whether the last confirmed pivot is a peak or a trough.
Adjustable transparency keeps the chart clean while preserving the key reaction area.
🔸 Visual Customization + Themes
- Multiple color themes (Neon, Ocean, Sunset, Monochrome) so the tool fits different chart styles and backgrounds.
Independent toggles for Fib levels, Golden Zone shading, ZigZag lines, and price labels.
Line width controls for better scaling across timeframes.
🔸 Optional Trading Markers + Alerts
- Optional BUY and SELL labels based on zone interaction logic with candle confirmation filters.
ATR based placement offset scaled by sensitivity so labels stay visually separated during volatility.
Built in alert conditions for new pivot highs and new pivot lows so you can monitor structure changes without watching every bar.
▶ Practical Usage Tip
• Use structure labels to define bias (HH + HL for bullish structure, LH + LL for bearish structure).
• Use the Golden Zone as a location filter, then wait for your own trigger (break of minor structure, rejection candle, volume shift, etc.).
• Treat extensions as “map points” not guaranteed targets. They work best when structure supports continuation.
Performance with Okuninushi Line Area Determinations**Performance Indicator with Market Structure Analysis**
Building upon TradingView's official Performance indicator, I've added a custom column to assess current market structure using my Okuninushi Line methodology, which visualizes the AB structure concept.
**What is the AB Structure?**
The AB structure identifies equilibrium levels based on recent price action. The Okuninushi Line calculates the 50% midpoint between the highest high and lowest low over a specified lookback period. In this implementation, I use a 65-day period on the daily timeframe (representing one quarter: 13 weeks × 5 trading days), though this is fully customizable.
**Market Structure Classification:**
- **Above Okuninushi Line** → "upper to okuni" → Price is in the **Premium Area** (bullish structure)
- **Below Okuninushi Line** → "down to okuni" → Price is in the **Discount Area** (bearish structure)
This additional column provides an instant visual reference for whether each asset is currently trading above or below its equilibrium level, complementing the traditional performance metrics with structural context.

Sessions + EMAS + Nube (Mini Table)This indicator is designed to help traders analyze market trends and identify potential trading opportunities.
It provides clear visual signals based on price behavior and technical calculations, allowing traders to better understand market structure, momentum, and direction.
The indicator can be used on any market and timeframe, making it suitable for both intraday and swing trading.
It is intended as a decision-support tool and should be used in combination with proper risk management and other forms of analysis.
ATR + Moving AverageThis indicator shows a manually calculated Average True Range (ATR) along with a moving average of the ATR.
The ATR measures current candle volatility.
The ATR Moving Average shows the average candle size over the selected period.
Both can use different smoothing types (RMA, SMA, EMA, WMA) for flexibility.
It’s useful for seeing when price is stretched, volatility is expanding or contracting, and for higher-timeframe mean-reversion analysis.

Gold Sniper MGC1! - M30 Precision vPOCThis Pine Script, titled "Gold Sniper MGC1! - M30 Precision vPOC," is a high-precision intraday trading tool designed specifically for Micro Gold (MGC1!) futures. It integrates Market Profile and Volume Profile logic to identify key institutional levels across various trading sessions.
Core Functionality
The script identifies and plots the Volume Point of Control (vPOC)—the price level with the highest traded volume—for specific time windows:
P.vPOC (Previous vPOC): Calculated using a Daily VWAP sync to align perfectly with institutional data from the previous day.
vPOC Today: Tracks the developing Point of Control for the current global session (18:00 - 17:00).
Killzone vPOCs: Specifically isolates the highest volume price levels for the Asia (02h-08h), London (08h-14h), and New York (14h-17h) sessions.
Key Technical Features
Institutional Alignment: By utilizing request.security and hl2 median price calculations on a 30-minute basis, the script filters out market noise and aligns with the structural levels used by "Smart Money".
Dynamic Labels (Vignettes): Each level is projected to the right of the price action with a color-coded label. These labels dynamically display both the Level Name and the Exact Price (to two decimal places), facilitating rapid order entry.
Visual Hierarchy:
Black (Solid): Previous Day's Value (P.vPOC).
White (Dotted): Current Day's Developing Value.
Gold/Cyan/Orange: Specific Killzone session values.
Strategic Application
This script serves as the "Map" for the Gold Sniper MGC1! strategy. Traders use these levels to identify Liquidity Sweeps or Market Structure Shifts (MSS). When the price interacts with these vPOCs, it often signals institutional rejection or acceptance, providing high-probability entry points for intraday "Sniper" setups.
Liquidity Sweep Guardian (Universal % or point based)
Liquidity Sweep Guardian - Complete User Guide
## Overview
The **Liquidity Sweep Guardian** is a visual warning system designed to prevent premature counter-trend trades (fades) near Previous Day High (PDH) and Previous Day Low (PDL) levels. This indicator helps you avoid one of the most common trading mistakes: fading too early before liquidity sweeps complete.
---
## 🎯 Core Trading Principle
### **THE GOLDEN RULE: Don't Fade Until It's Unlocked**
Price often **accelerates into key levels** to sweep liquidity before reversing. Trading against this momentum is extremely dangerous.
**The Process:**
1. **Danger Zone** (Red/White Box) = ⚠️ **DO NOT FADE** - Sweep likely incoming
2. **Sweep Occurs** (Triangle marker appears) = Price penetrates the level
3. **Reclaim Happens** (Price returns above/below level) = Level is tested
4. **🔓 UNLOCKED** (Gold border, green label) = **NOW you may CONSIDER a fade**
> **Important:** "UNLOCKED" means you may now *consider* a fade setup. It is NOT a trade signal itself. You still need your entry confirmation, risk management, and trade plan.
---
## 📊 Visual Elements Explained
### 1. **Danger Zone Boxes (Red Border by Default)**
**Two types of zones around PDH/PDL:**
- **Outer Danger Zone** (White fill): ±75pts (or 0.30%) around the level
- Indicates proximity to a key level where sweeps commonly occur
- Yellow/cautious trading zone
- **Inner Critical Zone** (Black fill): ±25pts (or 0.10%) around the level
- Highest probability area for liquidity sweep traps
- Avoid fading here at all costs
**What to do:**
- When price enters these zones, **wait and watch**
- Do not initiate counter-trend positions
- Allow the sweep to play out
### 2. **Unlocked Zones (Gold Border #ffeb3b)**
When a zone turns **gold/yellow** with green fill:
- The level has been swept AND reclaimed
- The liquidity grab is complete
- You may now look for fade opportunities with proper confirmation
### 3. **PDH/PDL Lines**
- **PDH Line** (Red): Previous Day High with price label
- **PDL Line** (Green): Previous Day Low with price label
- These are your key reference levels for the session
### 4. **Sweep Labels**
**Triangle Markers (SWEEP):**
- **Green Triangle** = Clean sweep (10-25pts penetration)
- **Orange Triangle** = Extended sweep (25-50pts penetration)
- **Red Triangle** = Deep penetration (50+ pts) - likely continuation, not reversal
**Warning Labels:**
- **⚠️ DEEP CONTINUATION?** = Penetration too deep, probably NOT a reversal setup
**Unlock Labels:**
- **🔓 LONG UNLOCKED** = PDL swept and reclaimed, may consider long fades
- **🔓 SHORT UNLOCKED** = PDH swept and reclaimed, may consider short fades
---
## ⚙️ Settings Guide
### **Calculation Mode**
**Use Percentage Mode (Default: ON)**
- ✅ **Enabled**: Universal mode - works on NQ, ES, RTY, stocks, crypto, forex
- ❌ **Disabled**: Fixed points mode - for specific instruments only
**When to use each:**
- **Percentage Mode**: Trading multiple instruments, or instruments with varying price levels
- **Fixed Points Mode**: Single instrument focus (e.g., only trading NQ at current levels)
### **Danger Zone Settings**
**Percentage Mode (Default for Universal Use):**
- **Danger Zone**: 0.30% each side (≈75pts on NQ@25,000)
- **Critical Zone**: 0.10% each side (≈25pts on NQ@25,000)
**Fixed Points Mode (For NQ Specifically):**
- **Danger Zone**: 75 points each side
- **Critical Zone**: 25 points each side
**Adjustment Tips:**
- For more volatile instruments: Increase percentages/points
- For less volatile instruments: Decrease percentages/points
- For higher timeframes: Use wider zones
- For lower timeframes: Use tighter zones
### **Sweep Classification**
**What defines a "real" sweep:**
- **Minimum**: 10pts / 0.04% - Shallow penetration may not grab enough liquidity
- **Optimal**: 10-25pts / 0.04-0.10% - "Goldilocks zone" for reversal setups
- **Extended**: 25-50pts / 0.10-0.20% - Deeper sweep, less reliable
- **Continuation**: 50+pts / 0.20%+ - Too deep, likely NOT reversing
**Max Bars for Reclaim**: 5 bars (default)
- Price should reclaim the level relatively quickly
- If it takes too long, the sweep may have failed
### **Visual Customization**
**Box Settings:**
- **Left Extension**: 60 bars (how far back the box extends)
- **Right Extension**: 50 bars (how far forward the box extends)
**Toggle Options:**
- Show/Hide Danger Zone Boxes

## 🎓 Trading Strategy Examples
### **Example 1: Long Setup at PDL**
1. **Morning**: Price approaches PDL (danger zone appears)
2. **Don't Fade Yet**: Price enters critical zone - resist urge to buy
3. **Sweep**: Price drops 15pts below PDL (green triangle appears)
4. **Reclaim**: Price closes back above PDL within 3 bars
5. **🔓 UNLOCKED**: Gold border + "LONG UNLOCKED" label appears
6. **Trade Setup**: Now look for bullish confirmation (order flow, structure, etc.)
### **Example 2: Avoiding a Trap at PDH**
1. **Afternoon**: Price rallies into PDH danger zone
2. **Temptation**: You want to short here (it "looks toppy")
3. **Sweep**: Price breaks 50pts above PDH (red triangle + ⚠️ warning)
4. **Continuation**: Deep penetration suggests continuation, not reversal
5. **Result**: No unlock occurs, price keeps running higher - trap avoided!
### **Example 3: Failed Unlock (No Trade)**
1. Price sweeps PDL by 12pts (green triangle)
2. Price struggles to reclaim PDL, stays below for 10+ bars
3. No "UNLOCKED" label appears
4. **Correct Action**: Do not fade - sweep failed to reclaim
---

Cave Diving 3 Lines System
🤿 Cave Diving Dashboard - A Deep Dive into Market Structure
## The Cave Diving Analogy
Imagine you're a cave diver exploring underwater caverns. As you descend deeper, you encounter different layers of the cave system:
- **The Surface (Internal Levels)** - Where you currently are, constantly shifting with each breath
- **The First Chamber (De Novo Levels)** - Your last known safe position, recently established
- **Deep Caverns (External Levels)** - Ancient, untouched chambers deeper in the system
Just as a cave diver must constantly monitor their position relative to these reference points, traders must track price action against key structural levels.
---
## 🎯 Understanding the Three-Tiered System
### 📍 **INTERNAL LEVELS** (Current 15m Candle)
*Your real-time position in the market*
**Internal High** 🟡 - The highest point reached in the current unfinished 15-minute candle
**Internal Low** 🟢 - The lowest point reached in the current unfinished 15-minute candle
**Think of these as:**
- Your current depth while actively diving
- They update continuously as price moves
- Status shows "Updating" when actively changing, "Intact" when stable
- These are NOT trade levels—they're awareness zones
**Key Insight:** When Internal Low drops below De Novo Low, you're in **Situation A** (bearish pressure building)—the indicator highlights this with red coloring.
---
### 🎯 **DE NOVO LEVELS** (Previous Closed 15m Candle)
*Your most recent confirmed safe zone*
**De Novo High** 🔵 - The high of the last completed 15-minute candle
**De Novo Low** 🟣 - The low of the last completed 15-minute candle
**Etymology:** "De Novo" = Latin for "from new" or "anew"—these are freshly established reference points
**Think of these as:**
- The last solid ground you stood on
- Your most recent confirmed position
- The bridge between where you are (Internal) and where you've been (External)
**Status Tracking:**
- **⬆️ Upgrade** - Level moved favorably (Higher high for resistance, Higher low for support)
- **⬇️ Downgrade** - Level moved unfavorably (Lower high, Lower low)
- **= Same** - No structural change from previous candle
**Trading Significance:**
- Primary reference points for intraday structure
- Breaking De Novo levels often signals directional commitment
- Can merge with External Level 1 when they align (shown as "DN🟰Ext1")
---
### ⛽🤿 **EXTERNAL LEVELS** (Unmitigated Historical 15m Levels)
*Deep liquidity pools waiting to be discovered*
**External High 1 & 2** 🟢🔵 - The two most recent unmitigated 15m highs
**External Low 1 & 2** 🟠🌸 - The two most recent unmitigated 15m lows
**Think of these as:**
- Untouched chambers in the cave system
- Liquidity pools that smart money is targeting
- Levels that "remember" and attract price
**What Makes a Level "Unmitigated"?**
- **Highs**: Price has NOT yet traded through them (broken above)
- **Lows**: Price has NOT yet swept them (broken below)
- Once touched, they're "mitigated" and removed from tracking
- The indicator automatically maintains the two most recent unmitigated levels
**Why "External"?**
They exist outside your current candle structure—historical reference points that institutions use for:
- Stop loss placement
- Profit taking targets
- Liquidity hunting zones
---
## 🎨 Color Coding System
### HIGHS (Resistance/Targets) - Cool Colors
- 🔵 **Ext High 2** - Light Blue (Distant target)
- 🟢 **Ext High 1** - Lime Green (Primary target)
- 🔵 **De Novo High** - Cyan (Recent resistance)
- 🟡 **Internal High** - Lemon Yellow (Current ceiling)
### LOWS (Support/Stops) - Warm Colors
- 🟢 **Internal Low** - Lime (Current floor)
- 🟣 **De Novo Low** - Purple (Recent support)
- 🟠 **Ext Low 1** - Orange-Red (Primary stop zone)
- 🌸 **Ext Low 2** - Pink (Distant support)
---
## 📊 Dashboard Breakdown
### The Table Shows:
1. **Level** - Which level you're tracking
2. **Price** - Exact price of the level
3. **Pts** - Distance from current price (+ above, - below)
4. **Status** - Current state or role of the level
### Special Features:
- **⏰ Countdown Timer** - Shows time remaining until next 15m candle close (next De Novo update)

---
## 🎯 Trading Applications
### **For Buyers (Going Long):**
- **Entry Zone**: Between De Novo Low and Ext Low 1
- **Stops**: Below Ext Low 1 (or Ext Low 2 for wider stops)
- **Targets**: De Novo High → Ext High 1 → Ext High 2
- **Confirmation**: Internal Low holds above De Novo Low
### **For Sellers (Going Short):**
- **Entry Zone**: Between De Novo High and Ext High 1
- **Stops**: Above Ext High 1 (or Ext High 2 for wider stops)
- **Targets**: De Novo Low → Ext Low 1 → Ext Low 2
- **Warning**: Watch for Situation A (Internal Low < De Novo Low)
### **Risk Management:**
- **DN🟰Ext1** status means De Novo = External 1 (tighter range, use caution)
- Proximity alerts help you avoid chasing price into resistance/support
- "Updating" status on Internal levels = active volatility
- "Upgrade/Downgrade" signals = structural shift in progress
---
## ⚙️ Customization Options
### Lookback Period
- Default: 500 candles (searches 125 hours of 15m data)
- Increase for more historical External levels
- Decrease for focus on recent structure
### Proximity Threshold
- Default: 25 points
- Set based on your instrument's average range
- Lower = tighter alerts (for scalping)
- Higher = strategic warnings (for swing trading)
### Visual Customization

- Line style (Solid/Dashed/Dotted)
- All colors fully customizable
- Show/hide lines independently
---
## 🧭 The Cave Diving Mindset
**Never dive deeper than you can safely return from.**
In trading terms:
- Know your Internal position (real-time awareness)
- Respect your De Novo levels (recent structure)
- Hunt for External liquidity (where the targets are)
- Always have an exit plan (stops below Ext Lows, above Ext Highs)
The market, like a cave, has structure. This indicator illuminates that structure across three timeframes of reference, helping you navigate with precision rather than guessing in the dark.
---
## 🎓 Key Takeaways
1. **Internal** = Real-time, unfinished, awareness only
2. **De Novo** = Just confirmed, primary reference, updates every 15m
3. **External** = Historical, unmitigated, high-probability targets/stops
4. **Upgrades/Downgrades** = Trend signals
5. **DN🟰Ext1** = Structural alignment (tighter range)
6. **Situation A** = Bearish warning (Internal < De Novo Low)
---
## 📝 Credits
*"In cave diving, you plan your dive and dive your plan. In trading, you plan your levels and trade your levels."*
**Indicator:** Cave Diving Dashboard - Part 1: Price Levels
**Timeframe:** Optimized for 15-minute structure on any chart timeframe
**Philosophy:** Structure first, price second. Know where you are, where you've been, and where the liquidity waits.
