DFT - Dominant Cycle Period 8-50 bars - John EhlerThis is the translation of discret cosine tranform (DCT) usage by John Ehler for finding dominant cycle period (DC).
The price is first filtered to remove aliasing noise(bellow 8 bars) and trend informations(above 50 bars), then the power is computed.
The trick here is to use a normalisation against the maximum power in order to get a good frequency resolution.
Current limitation in tradingview does not allow to display all of the periods, still the DC period is plot after beeing computed based on the center of gravity algo.
The DC period can be used to tune all of the indicators based on the cycles of the markets. For instance one can use this (DC period)/2 as an input for RSI.
Hope you find this of some interrest.

[naoligo] Simple ADXI'm publishing this indicator just for study purposes, because the result is exactly the same as DMI without the smoothing factor. It is exactly the same as ADX Wilder from MT5.
I was looking for the algorithm all over and it was a pain to find the right formula, meaning: one that would match with the built-in ones. After several study and comparison, I still didn't find the algorithm that match with the MT5's built-in simple ADX ...
Enjoy!

Zero Lag MACD Enhanced - Version 1.1ENHANCED ZERO LAG MACD
Version 1.1
Based on ZeroLag EMA - see Technical Analysis of Stocks and Commodities, April 2000
Original version by user Glaz. Thanks !
Ideas and code from @yassotreyo version.
Tweaked by Albert Callisto (AC)
New features:
Added original signal line formula
Added optional EMA on MACD
Added filling between the MACD and signal line
I looked at other versions of the zero lag and noticed that the histogram was slightly different. After looking at other zero lags on TV, I noticed that the algorithm implementation of Glanz generated a modified signal line. I decided to add the old version to be compliant with the original algorithm that you will find in other platforms like MT4, FXCM, etc.
So now you can choose if you want the original algorithm or Glanz version. It's up to you then to choose which one you prefer. I also added an extra EMA applied on the MACD. This is used in a system I am currently studying and can be of some interest to filter out false signals.

Fractal Deviation Bands idea by @XeL_Arjona
CHANGE LOG:
ACCUMULATION / DISTRIBUTION CLOUD: I decided to change it's name from the Buy to Sell Pressure. The code is essentially the same as older versions and they are the center core (VORTEX?) of all derived New stuff which are:
MORPHIC NUMBERS: The "Golden Ratio" expressed by the result of the constant "PHI" and the newer and same in characteristics "Plastic Number" expressed as "PN". For more information about this regard take a look at: HERE!
CUSTOM(K) EXPONENTIAL MOVING AVERAGE: Some code has cleaned from last version to include as custom function the nEMA , which use an additional input (K) to customise the way the "exponentially" is weighted from the custom array. For the purpose of this indicator, I implement a volatility algorithm using the Average True Range of last 9 periods multiplied by the morphic number used in the fractal study. (Golden Ratio as default) The result is very similar in response to classic EMA but tend to accelerate or decelerate much more responsive with wider bars presented in trending average.
FRACTAL DEVIATION BANDS: The main idea is based on the so useful Standard Deviation process to create Bands in favor of a multiplier (As John Bollinger used in it's own bands) from a custom array, in which for this case is the "Volume Pressure Moving Average" as the main Vortex for the "Fractallitly", so then apply as many "Child bands" using the older one as the new calculation array using the same morphic constant as multiplier (Like Fibonacci but with other approach rather than %ratios). Results are AWSOME! Market tend to accelerate or decelerate their Trend in favor of a Fractal approach. This bands try to catch them, so please experiment and feedback me your own observations.
EXTERNAL TICKER FOR VOLUME DATA: I Added a way to input volume data for this kind of study from external tickers. This is just a quicky-hack given that currently TradingView is not adding Volume to their Indexes so; maybe this is temporary by now. It seems that this part of the code is conflicting with intraday timeframes, so You are advised.
This CODE is versioned as BETA FOR TESTING PROPOSES. By now TradingView Admins are changing lot's of things internally, so maybe this could conflict with correct rendering of this study with special tickers or timeframes. I will try to code by itself just the core parts of this study in order to use them at discretion in other areas. ALL NEW IDEAS OR MODIFICATIONS to these indicator(s) are Welcome in favor to deploy a better and more accurate readings. I will be very glad to be notified at Twitter or TradingView accounts at: @XeL_Arjona
VMDM - Volume, Momentum & Divergence Master [BullByte]VMDM - Volume, Momentum and Divergence Master
Educational Multi-Layer Market Structure Analysis System
Multi-factor divergence engine that scores RSI momentum, volume pressure, and institutional footprints into one non-repainting confluence rating (0-100).
WHAT THIS INDICATOR IS
VMDM is an educational indicator designed to teach traders how to recognize high-probability reversal and continuation patterns by analyzing four independent market dimensions simultaneously. Instead of relying on a single indicator that may produce frequent false signals, VMDM creates a confluence-based scoring system that weights multiple confirmation factors, helping you understand which setups have stronger technical backing and which are lower quality.
This is NOT a trading system or signal generator. It is a learning tool that visualizes complex market structure concepts in an accessible format for both coders and non-coders.
THE PROBLEM IT SOLVES
Most traders face these common challenges:
Challenge 1 - Indicator Overload: Running RSI, volume analysis, and divergence detection separately creates chart clutter and conflicting signals. You waste time cross-referencing multiple windows trying to determine if all factors align.
Challenge 2 - False Divergences: Standard divergence indicators trigger on every minor pivot, creating noise. Many divergences fail because they lack supporting evidence from volume or market structure.
Challenge 3 - Missed Context: A bullish RSI divergence means nothing if it occurs during weak volume or in the middle of strong distribution. Context determines quality.
Challenge 4 - Repainting Confusion: Many divergence scripts repaint, showing perfect historical signals that never actually triggered in real-time, leading to false confidence.
Challenge 5 - Institutional Pattern Recognition: Absorption zones, stop hunts, and exhaustion patterns are taught in trading education but difficult to identify systematically without manual analysis.
VMDM addresses all five challenges by combining complementary analytical layers into one transparent, non-repainting, confluence-weighted system with visual clarity.
WHY THIS SPECIFIC COMBINATION - MASHUP JUSTIFICATION
This indicator is NOT a random mashup of popular indicators. Each of the four layers serves a specific analytical purpose and together they create a complete market structure assessment framework.
THE FOUR ANALYTICAL LAYERS
LAYER 1 - RSI MOMENTUM DIVERGENCE (Trend Exhaustion Detection)
Purpose: Identifies when price momentum is weakening before price itself reverses.
Why RSI: The Relative Strength Index measures momentum on a bounded 0-100 scale, making divergence detection mathematically consistent across all assets and timeframes. Unlike raw price oscillators, RSI normalizes momentum regardless of volatility regime.
How It Contributes: Divergence between price pivots and RSI pivots reveals early momentum exhaustion. A lower price low with a higher RSI low (bullish regular divergence) signals sellers are losing strength even as price makes new lows. This is the PRIMARY signal generator in VMDM.
Limitation If Used Alone: RSI divergence by itself produces many false signals because momentum can remain weak during continued trends. It needs confirmation from volume and structural evidence.
LAYER 2 - VOLUME PRESSURE ANALYSIS (Buying vs Selling Intensity)
Purpose: Quantifies whether the current bar's volume reflects buying pressure or selling pressure based on where price closed within the bar's range.
Methodology: Instead of just measuring volume size, VMDM calculates WHERE in the bar range the close occurred. A close near the high on high volume indicates strong buying absorption. A close near the low indicates selling pressure. The calculation accounts for wick size (wicks reduce pressure quality) and uses percentile ranking over a lookback period to normalize pressure strength on a 0-100 scale.
Formula Concept:
Buy Pressure = Volume × (Close - Low) / (High - Low) × Wick Quality Factor
Sell Pressure = Volume × (High - Close) / (High - Low) × Wick Quality Factor
Net Pressure = Buy Pressure - Sell Pressure
Pressure Strength = Percentile Rank of Net Pressure over lookback period
Why Percentile Ranking: Absolute volume varies by asset and session. Percentile ranking makes 85th percentile pressure on low-volume crypto comparable to 85th percentile pressure on high-volume forex.
How It Contributes: When a bullish divergence occurs at a pivot low AND pressure strength is above 60 (strong buying), this adds 25 confluence points. It confirms that the divergence is occurring during actual accumulation, not just weak selling.
Limitation If Used Alone: Pressure analysis shows current bar intensity but cannot identify trend exhaustion or reversal timing. High buying pressure can exist during a strong uptrend with no reversal imminent.
LAYER 3 - BEHAVIORAL FOOTPRINT PATTERNS (Volume Anomaly Detection)
CRITICAL DISCLAIMER: The terms "institutional footprint," "absorption," "stop hunt," and "exhaustion" used in this indicator are EDUCATIONAL LABELS for specific price and volume behavioral patterns. These patterns are detected through technical analysis of publicly available price, volume, and bar structure data. This indicator does NOT have access to actual institutional order flow, market maker data, broker stop-loss locations, or any non-public data source. These pattern names are used because they are common terminology in trading education to describe these technical behaviors. The analysis is interpretive and based on observable price action, not privileged information.
Purpose: Detect volume anomalies and price patterns that historically correlate with potential reversal zones or trend continuation failure.
Pattern Type 1 - Absorption (Labeled as "ACCUMULATION" or "DISTRIBUTION")
Detection Criteria: Volume is more than 2x the moving average AND bar range is less than 50 percent of the average bar range.
Interpretation: High volume compressed into a tight range suggests large participants are absorbing supply (accumulation) or distribution (distribution) without allowing price to move significantly. This often precedes directional moves once absorption completes.
Visual: Colored box zone highlighting the absorption area.
Pattern Type 2 - Stop Hunt (Labeled as "BULL HUNT" or "BEAR HUNT")
Detection Criteria: Price penetrates a recent 10-bar high or low by a small margin (0.2 percent), then closes back inside the range on above-average volume (1.5x+).
Interpretation: Price briefly spikes beyond recent structure (likely triggering stop losses placed just beyond obvious levels) then reverses. This is a classic false breakout pattern often seen before reversals.
Visual: Label at the wick extreme showing hunt direction.
Pattern Type 3 - Exhaustion (Labeled as "SELL EXHAUST" or "BUY EXHAUST")
Detection Criteria: Lower wick is more than 2.5x the body size with volume above 1.8x average and RSI below 35 (sell exhaustion), OR upper wick more than 2.5x body size with volume above 1.8x average and RSI above 65 (buy exhaustion).
Interpretation: Large wicks with high volume and extreme RSI suggest aggressive buying or selling was met with equally aggressive rejection. This exhaustion often marks short-term extremes.
Visual: Label showing exhaustion type.
How These Contribute: When a divergence forms at a pivot AND one of these behavioral patterns is active, the confluence score increases by 20 points. This confirms the divergence is occurring during structural anomaly activity, not just normal price flow.
Limitation If Used Alone: These patterns can occur mid-trend and do not indicate direction without momentum context. Absorption in a strong uptrend may just be continuation accumulation.
LAYER 4 - CONFLUENCE SCORING MATRIX (Quality Weighting System)
Purpose: Translate all detected conditions into a single 0-100 quality score so you can objectively compare setups.
Scoring Breakdown:
Divergence Present: +30 points (primary signal)
Pressure Confirmation: +25 points (volume supports direction)
Behavioral Footprint Active: +20 points (structural anomaly present)
RSI Extreme: +15 points (RSI below 30 or above 70 at pivot)
Volume Spike: +10 points (current volume above 1.5x average)
Maximum Possible Score: 100 points
Why These Weights: The weights reflect reliability hierarchy based on backtesting observation. Divergence is the core signal (30 points), but without volume confirmation (25 points) many fail. Behavioral patterns add meaningful context (20 points). RSI extremes and volume spikes are secondary confirmations (15 and 10 points).
Quality Tiers:
90-100: TEXTBOOK (all factors aligned)
75-89: HIGH QUALITY (strong confluence)
60-74: VALID (meets minimum threshold)
Below 60: DEVELOPING (not displayed unless threshold lowered)
How It Contributes: The confluence score allows you to filter noise. You can set your minimum quality threshold in settings. Higher thresholds (75+) show fewer but higher-quality patterns. Lower thresholds (50-60) show more patterns but include lower-confidence setups. This teaches you to distinguish strong setups from weak ones.
Limitation: Confluence scoring is historical observation-based, not predictive guarantee. A 95-point setup can still fail. The score represents technical alignment, not future certainty.
WHY THIS COMBINATION WORKS TOGETHER
Each layer addresses a limitation in the others:
RSI Divergence identifies WHEN momentum is exhausting (timing)
Volume Pressure confirms WHETHER the exhaustion is accompanied by opposite-side accumulation (confirmation)
Behavioral Footprint shows IF structural anomalies support the reversal hypothesis (context)
Confluence Scoring weights ALL factors into an objective quality metric (filtering)
Using only RSI divergence gives you timing without confirmation. Using only volume pressure gives you intensity without directional context. Using only pattern detection gives you anomalies without trend exhaustion context. Using all four together creates a complete analytical framework where each layer compensates for the others' weaknesses.
This is not a mashup for the sake of combining indicators. It is a structured analytical system where each component has a defined role in a multi-dimensional market assessment process.
HOW TO READ THE INDICATOR - VISUAL ELEMENTS GUIDE
VMDM displays up to five visual layer types. You can enable or disable each layer independently in settings under "Visual Layers."
VISUAL LAYER 1 - MARKET STRUCTURE (Pivot Points and Lines)
What You See:
Small labels at swing highs and lows marked "PH" (Pivot High) and "PL" (Pivot Low) with horizontal dashed lines extending right from each pivot.
What It Means:
These are CONFIRMED pivots, not real-time. A pivot low appears AFTER the required right-side confirmation bars pass (default 3 bars). This creates a delay but prevents repainting. The pivot only appears once it is mathematically confirmed.
The horizontal lines represent support (from pivot lows) and resistance (from pivot highs) levels where price previously found significant rejection.
Color Coding:
Green label and line: Pivot Low (potential support)
Red label and line: Pivot High (potential resistance)
How To Use:
These pivots are the foundation for divergence detection. Divergence is only calculated between confirmed pivots, ensuring all signals are non-repainting. The lines help you see historical structure levels.
VISUAL LAYER 2 - PRESSURE ZONES (Background Color)
What You See:
Subtle background color shading on bars - light green or light red tint.
What It Means:
This visualizes volume pressure strength in real-time.
Color Coding:
Light Green Background: Pressure Strength above 70 (strong buying pressure - price closing near highs on volume)
Light Red Background: Pressure Strength below 30 (strong selling pressure - price closing near lows on volume)
No Color: Neutral pressure (pressure between 30-70)
How To Use:
When a bullish divergence pattern appears during green pressure zones, it suggests the divergence is forming during accumulation. When a bearish divergence appears during red zones, distribution is occurring. Pressure zones help you filter divergences - those forming in supportive pressure environments have higher probability.
VISUAL LAYER 3 - DIVERGENCE LINES (Dotted Connectors)
What You See:
Dotted lines connecting two pivot points (either two pivot lows or two pivot highs).
What It Means:
A divergence has been detected between those two pivots. The line connects the price pivots where RSI showed opposite behavior.
Color Coding:
Bright Green Line: Bullish divergence (regular or hidden)
Bright Red Line: Bearish divergence (regular or hidden)
How To Use:
The divergence line appears ONLY after the second pivot is confirmed (delayed by right-side confirmation bars). This is intentional to prevent repainting. When you see the line appear, it means:
For Bullish Regular Divergence:
Price made a lower low (second pivot lower than first)
RSI made a higher low (RSI at second pivot higher than first)
Interpretation: Downtrend losing momentum
For Bullish Hidden Divergence:
Price made a higher low (second pivot higher than first)
RSI made a lower low (RSI at second pivot lower than first)
Interpretation: Uptrend continuation likely (pullback within uptrend)
For Bearish Regular Divergence:
Price made a higher high (second pivot higher than first)
RSI made a lower high (RSI at second pivot lower than first)
Interpretation: Uptrend losing momentum
For Bearish Hidden Divergence:
Price made a lower high (second pivot lower than first)
RSI made a higher high (RSI at second pivot higher than first)
Interpretation: Downtrend continuation likely (bounce within downtrend)
If "Show Consolidated Analysis Label" is disabled, a small label will appear on the divergence line showing the divergence type abbreviation.
VISUAL LAYER 4 - BEHAVIORAL FOOTPRINT MARKERS
What You See:
Boxes, labels, and markers at specific bars showing pattern detection.
ABSORPTION ZONES (Boxes):
Colored rectangular boxes spanning one or more bars.
Purple Box: Accumulation absorption zone (high volume, tight range, bullish close)
Red Box: Distribution absorption zone (high volume, tight range, bearish close)
If absorption continues for multiple consecutive bars, the box extends and a counter appears in the label showing how many bars the absorption lasted.
What It Means: Large volume is being absorbed without significant price movement. This often precedes directional breakouts once the absorption phase completes.
STOP HUNT MARKERS (Labels):
Small labels below or above wicks labeled "BULL HUNT" or "BEAR HUNT" (may show bar count if consecutive).
What It Means:
BULL HUNT : Price spiked below recent lows then reversed back up on volume - likely triggered sell stops before reversing
BEAR HUNT : Price spiked above recent highs then reversed back down on volume - likely triggered buy stops before reversing
EXHAUSTION MARKERS (Labels):
Labels showing "SELL EXHAUST" or "BUY EXHAUST."
What It Means:
SELL EXHAUST : Large lower wick with high volume and low RSI - aggressive selling met with strong rejection
BUY EXHAUST : Large upper wick with high volume and high RSI - aggressive buying met with strong rejection
How To Use:
These markers help you identify WHERE structural anomalies occurred. When a divergence signal appears AT THE SAME TIME as one of these patterns, the confluence score increases. You are looking for alignment - divergence + behavioral pattern + pressure confirmation = high-quality setup.
VISUAL LAYER 5 - CONSOLIDATED ANALYSIS LABEL (Main Pattern Signal)
What You See:
A large label appearing at pivot points (or in real-time mode, at current bar) containing full pattern analysis.
Label Appearance:
Depending on your "Use Compact Label Format" setting:
COMPACT MODE (Single Line):
Example: "BULLISH REGULAR | Q:HIGH QUALITY C:82"
Breakdown:
BULLISH REGULAR: Divergence type detected
Q:HIGH QUALITY: Pattern quality tier
C:82: Confluence score (82 out of 100)
FULL MODE (Multi-Line Detailed):
Example:
PATTERN DETECTED
-------------------
BULLISH REGULAR
Quality: HIGH QUALITY
Price: Lower Low
Momentum: Higher Low
Signal: Weakening Downtrend
CONFLUENCE: 82/100
-------------------
Divergence: 30
Pressure: 25
Institutional: 20
RSI Extreme: 0
Volume: 10
Breakdown:
Top section: Pattern type and quality
Middle section: Divergence explanation (what price did vs what RSI did)
Bottom section: Confluence score with itemized breakdown showing which factors contributed
Label Position:
In Confirmed modes: Label appears AT the pivot point (delayed by confirmation bars)
In Real-time mode: Label appears at current bar as conditions develop
Label Color:
Gold: Textbook quality (90+ confluence)
Green: High quality (75-89 confluence)
Blue: Valid quality (60-74 confluence)
How To Use:
This is your primary decision-making label. When it appears:
Check the divergence type (regular divergences are reversal signals, hidden divergences are continuation signals)
Review the quality tier (textbook and high quality have better historical win rates)
Examine the confluence breakdown to see which factors are present and which are missing
Look at the chart context (trend, support/resistance, timeframe)
Use this information to assess whether the setup aligns with your strategy
The label does NOT tell you to buy or sell. It tells you a technical pattern has formed and provides the quality assessment. Your trading decision must incorporate risk management, market context, and your strategy rules.
UNDERSTANDING THE THREE DETECTION MODES
VMDM offers three signal detection modes in settings to accommodate different trading styles and learning objectives.
MODE 1: "Confluence Only (Real-Time)"
How It Works: Displays signals AS THEY DEVELOP on the current bar without waiting for pivot confirmation. The system calculates confluence score from pressure, volume, RSI extremes, and behavioral patterns. Divergence signals are NOT required in this mode.
Delay: ZERO - signals appear immediately.
Use Case: Real-time scanning for high-confluence zones without divergence requirement. Useful for intraday traders who want immediate alerts when multiple factors align.
Tradeoff: More frequent signals but includes setups without confirmed divergence. Higher false signal rate. Signals can change as the bar develops (not repainting in historical bars, but current bar updates).
Visual Behavior: Labels appear at the current bar. No divergence lines unless divergence happens to be present.
MODE 2: "Divergence + Confluence (Confirmed)" - DEFAULT RECOMMENDED
How It Works: Full system engagement. Signals appear ONLY when:
A pivot is confirmed (requires right-side confirmation bars to pass)
Divergence is detected between current pivot and previous pivot
Total confluence score meets or exceeds your minimum threshold
Delay: Equal to your "Pivot Right Bars" setting (default 3 bars). This means signals appear 3 bars AFTER the actual pivot formed.
Use Case: Highest-quality, non-repainting signals for swing traders and learners who want to study confirmed pattern completion.
Tradeoff: Delayed signals. You will not receive the signal until confirmation occurs. In fast-moving markets, price may have already moved significantly by the time the signal appears.
Visual Behavior: Labels appear at the historical pivot location (in the past). Divergence lines connect the two pivots. This is the most educational mode because it shows completed, confirmed patterns.
Non-Repainting Guarantee: Yes. Once a signal appears, it never disappears or changes.
MODE 3: "Divergence + Confluence (Relaxed)"
How It Works: Same as Confirmed mode but with adaptive thresholds. If confluence is very high (10 points above threshold), the signal may appear even if some factors are weak. If divergence is present but confluence is slightly below threshold (within 10 points), it may still appear.
Delay: Same as Confirmed mode (right-side confirmation bars).
Use Case: Slightly more signals than Confirmed mode for traders willing to accept near-threshold setups.
Tradeoff: More signals but lower average quality than Confirmed mode.
Visual Behavior: Same as Confirmed mode.
DASHBOARD GUIDE - READING THE METRICS
The dashboard appears in the corner of your chart (position selectable in settings) and provides real-time market state analysis.
You can choose between four dashboard detail levels in settings: Off, Compact, Optimized (default), Full.
DASHBOARD ROW EXPLANATIONS
ROW 1 - Header Information
Left: Current symbol and timeframe
Center: "VMDM "
Right: Version number
ROW 2 - Mode and Delay
Shows which detection mode you are using and the signal delay.
Example: "CONFIRMED | Delay: 3 bars"
This reminds you that signals in confirmed mode appear 3 bars after the pivot forms.
ROW 3 - Market Regime
Format: "TREND UP HV" or "RANGING NV"
First Part - Trend State:
TREND UP: 20 EMA above 50 EMA with strong separation
TREND DOWN: 20 EMA below 50 EMA with strong separation
RANGING: EMAs close together, low trend strength
TRANSITION: Between trending and ranging states
Second Part - Volatility State:
HV: High Volatility (current ATR more than 1.3x the 50-bar average ATR)
NV: Normal Volatility (current ATR between 0.7x and 1.3x average)
LV: Low Volatility (current ATR less than 0.7x average)
Third Column: Volatility ratio (example: "1.45x" means current ATR is 1.45 times normal)
How To Use: Regime context helps you interpret signals. Reversal divergences are more reliable in ranging or transitional regimes. Continuation divergences (hidden) are more reliable in trending regimes. High volatility means wider stops may be needed.
ROW 4 - Pressure
Shows current volume pressure state.
Format: "BUYING | ██████████░░░░░░░░░"
States:
BUYING : Pressure strength above 60 (closes near highs)
SELLING : Pressure strength below 40 (closes near lows)
NEUTRAL : Pressure strength between 40-60
Bar Visualization: Each block represents 10 percentile points. A full bar (10 filled blocks) = 100th percentile pressure.
Color: Green for buying, red for selling, gray for neutral.
How To Use: When pressure aligns with divergence direction (bullish divergence during buying pressure), confluence is stronger.
ROW 5 - Volume and RSI
Format: "1.8x | RSI 68 | OB"
First Value: Current volume ratio (1.8x = volume is 1.8 times the moving average)
Second Value: Current RSI reading
Third Value: RSI state
OB: Overbought (RSI above 70)
OS: Oversold (RSI below 30)
Blank: Neutral RSI
How To Use: Volume spikes (above 1.5x) during divergence formation add confluence. RSI extremes at pivots add confluence.
ROW 6 - Behavioral Footprint
Format: "BULL HUNT | 2 bars"
Shows the most recent behavioral pattern detected and how long ago.
States:
ACCUMULATION / DISTRIBUTION: Absorption detected
BULL HUNT / BEAR HUNT: Stop hunt detected
SELL EXHAUST / BUY EXHAUST: Exhaustion detected
SCANNING: No recent pattern
NOW: Pattern is active on current bar
How To Use: When footprint activity is recent (within 50 bars) or active now, it adds context to divergence signals forming in that area.
ROW 7 - Current Pattern
Shows the divergence type currently detected (if any).
Examples: "BULLISH REGULAR", "BEARISH HIDDEN", "Scanning..."
Quality: Shows pattern quality (TEXTBOOK, HIGH QUALITY, VALID)
How To Use: This tells you what type of signal is active. Regular divergences are reversal setups. Hidden divergences are continuation setups.
ROW 8 - Session Summary
Format: "14 events | A3 H8 E3"
First Value: Total institutional events this session
Breakdown:
A: Absorption events
H: Stop hunt events
E: Exhaustion events
How To Use: High event counts suggest an active, volatile session with frequent structural anomalies. Low counts suggest quiet, orderly price action.
ROW 9 - Confluence Score (Optimized/Full mode only)
Format: "78/100 | ████████░░"
Shows current real-time confluence score even if no pattern is confirmed yet.
How To Use: Watch this in real-time to see how close you are to pattern formation. When it exceeds your threshold and divergence forms, a signal will appear (after confirmation delay).
ROW 10 - Patterns Studied (Optimized/Full mode only)
Format: "47 patterns | 12 bars ago"
First Value: Total confirmed patterns detected since chart loaded
Second Value: How many bars since the last confirmed pattern appeared
How To Use: Helps you understand pattern frequency on your selected symbol and timeframe. If many bars have passed since last pattern, market may be trending without reversal opportunities.
ROW 11 - Bull/Bear Ratio (Optimized/Full mode only)
Format: "28:19 | BULL"
Shows count of bullish vs bearish patterns detected.
Balance:
BULL: More bullish patterns detected (suggests market has had more bullish reversals/continuations)
BEAR: More bearish patterns detected
BAL: Equal counts
How To Use: Extreme imbalances can indicate directional bias in the studied period. A heavily bullish ratio in a downtrend might suggest frequent failed rallies (bearish continuation). Context matters.
ROW 12 - Volume Ratio Detail (Optimized/Full mode only)
Shows current volume vs average volume in absolute terms.
Example: "1.4x | 45230 / 32300"
How To Use: Confirms whether current activity is above or below normal.
ROW 13 - Last Institutional Event (Full mode only)
Shows the most recent institutional pattern type and how many bars ago it occurred.
Example: "DISTRIBUTION | 23 bars"
How To Use: Tracks recency of last anomaly for context.
SETTINGS GUIDE - EVERY PARAMETER EXPLAINED
PERFORMANCE SECTION
Enable All Visuals (Master Toggle)
Default: ON
What It Does: Master kill switch for ALL visual elements (labels, lines, boxes, background colors, dashboard). When OFF, only plot outputs remain (invisible unless you open data window).
When To Change: Turn OFF on mobile devices, 1-second charts, or slow computers to improve performance. You can still receive alerts even with visuals disabled.
Impact: Dramatic performance improvement when OFF, but you lose all visual feedback.
Maximum Object History
Default: 50 | Range: 10-100
What It Does: Limits how many of each object type (labels, lines, boxes) are kept in memory. Older objects beyond this limit are deleted.
When To Change: Lower to 20-30 on fast timeframes (1-minute charts) to prevent slowdown. Increase to 100 on daily charts if you want more historical pattern visibility.
Impact: Lower values = better performance but less historical visibility. Higher values = more history visible but potential slowdown on fast timeframes.
Alert Cooldown (Bars)
Default: 5 | Range: 1-50
What It Does: Minimum number of bars that must pass before another alert of the same type can fire. Prevents alert spam when multiple patterns form in quick succession.
When To Change: Increase to 20+ on 1-minute charts to reduce noise. Decrease to 1-2 on daily charts if you want every pattern alerted.
Impact: Higher cooldown = fewer alerts. Lower cooldown = more alerts.
USER EXPERIENCE SECTION
Show Enhanced Tooltips
Default: ON
What It Does: Enables detailed hover-over tooltips on labels and visual elements.
When To Change: Turn OFF if you encounter Pine Script compilation errors related to tooltip arguments (rare, platform-specific issue).
Impact: Minimal. Just adds helpful hover text.
MARKET STRUCTURE DETECTION SECTION
Pivot Left Bars
Default: 3 | Range: 2-10
What It Does: Number of bars to the LEFT of the center bar that must be higher (for pivot low) or lower (for pivot high) than the center bar for a pivot to be valid.
Example: With value 3, a pivot low requires the center bar's low to be lower than the 3 bars to its left.
When To Change:
Increase to 5-7 on noisy timeframes (1-minute charts) to filter insignificant pivots
Decrease to 2 on slow timeframes (daily charts) to catch more pivots
Impact: Higher values = fewer, more significant pivots = fewer signals. Lower values = more frequent pivots = more signals but more noise.
Pivot Right Bars
Default: 3 | Range: 2-10
What It Does: Number of bars to the RIGHT of the center bar that must pass for confirmation. This creates the non-repainting delay.
Example: With value 3, a pivot is confirmed 3 bars AFTER it forms.
When To Change:
Increase to 5-7 for slower, more confirmed signals (better for swing trading)
Decrease to 2 for faster signals (better for intraday, but still non-repainting)
Impact: Higher values = longer delay but more reliable confirmation. Lower values = faster signals but less confirmation. This setting directly controls your signal delay in Confirmed and Relaxed modes.
Minimum Confluence Score
Default: 60 | Range: 40-95
What It Does: The threshold score required for a pattern to be displayed. Patterns with confluence scores below this threshold are not shown.
When To Change:
Increase to 75+ if you only want high-quality textbook setups (fewer signals)
Decrease to 50-55 if you want to see more developing patterns (more signals, lower average quality)
Impact: This is your primary signal filter. Higher threshold = fewer, higher-quality signals. Lower threshold = more signals but includes weaker setups. Recommended starting point is 60-65.
TECHNICAL PERIODS SECTION
RSI Period
Default: 14 | Range: 5-50
What It Does: Lookback period for RSI calculation.
When To Change:
Decrease to 9-10 for faster, more sensitive RSI that detects shorter-term momentum changes
Increase to 21-28 for slower, smoother RSI that filters noise
Impact: Lower values make RSI more volatile (more frequent extremes and divergences). Higher values make RSI smoother (fewer but more significant divergences). 14 is industry standard.
Volume Moving Average Period
Default: 20 | Range: 10-200
What It Does: Lookback period for calculating average volume. Current volume is compared to this average to determine volume ratio.
When To Change:
Decrease to 10-14 for shorter-term volume comparison (more sensitive to recent volume changes)
Increase to 50-100 for longer-term volume comparison (smoother, less sensitive)
Impact: Lower values make volume ratio more volatile. Higher values make it more stable. 20 is standard.
ATR Period
Default: 14 | Range: 5-100
What It Does: Lookback period for Average True Range calculation used for volatility measurement and label positioning.
When To Change: Rarely needs adjustment. Use 7-10 for faster volatility response, 21-28 for slower.
Impact: Affects volatility ratio calculation and visual label spacing. Minimal impact on signals.
Pressure Percentile Lookback
Default: 50 | Range: 10-300
What It Does: Lookback period for calculating volume pressure percentile ranking. Your current pressure is ranked against the pressure of the last X bars.
When To Change:
Decrease to 20-30 for shorter-term pressure context (more responsive to recent changes)
Increase to 100-200 for longer-term pressure context (smoother rankings)
Impact: Lower values make pressure strength more sensitive to recent bars. Higher values provide more stable, long-term pressure assessment. Capped at 300 for performance reasons.
SIGNAL DETECTION SECTION
Signal Detection Mode
Default: "Divergence + Confluence (Confirmed)"
Options:
Confluence Only (Real-time)
Divergence + Confluence (Confirmed)
Divergence + Confluence (Relaxed)
What It Does: Selects which detection logic mode to use (see "Understanding The Three Detection Modes" section above).
When To Change: Use Confirmed for learning and non-repainting signals. Use Real-time for live scanning without divergence requirement. Use Relaxed for slightly more signals than Confirmed.
Impact: Fundamentally changes when and how signals appear.
VISUAL LAYERS SECTION
All toggles default to ON. Each controls visibility of one visual layer:
Show Market Structure: Pivot markers and support/resistance lines
Show Pressure Zones: Background color shading
Show Divergence Lines: Dotted lines connecting pivots
Show Institutional Footprint Markers: Absorption boxes, hunt labels, exhaustion labels
Show Consolidated Analysis Label: Main pattern detection label
Use Compact Label Format
Default: OFF
What It Does: Switches consolidated label between single-line compact format and multi-line detailed format.
When To Change: Turn ON if you find full labels too large or distracting.
Impact: Visual clarity vs. information density tradeoff.
DASHBOARD SECTION
Dashboard Mode
Default: "Optimized"
Options: Off, Compact, Optimized, Full
What It Does: Controls how much information the dashboard displays.
Off: No dashboard
Compact: 8 rows (essential metrics only)
Optimized: 12 rows (recommended balance)
Full: 13 rows (every available metric)
Dashboard Position
Default: "Top Right"
Options: Top Right, Top Left, Bottom Right, Bottom Left
What It Does: Screen corner where dashboard appears.
HOW TO USE VMDM - PRACTICAL WORKFLOW
STEP 1 - INITIAL SETUP
Add VMDM to your chart
Select your detection mode (Confirmed recommended for learning)
Set your minimum confluence score (start with 60-65)
Adjust pivot parameters if needed (default 3/3 is good for most timeframes)
Enable the visual layers you want to see
STEP 2 - CHART ANALYSIS
Let the indicator load and analyze historical data
Review the patterns that appear historically
Examine the confluence scores - notice which patterns had higher scores
Observe which patterns occurred during supportive pressure zones
Notice the divergence line connections - understand what price vs RSI did
STEP 3 - PATTERN RECOGNITION LEARNING
When a consolidated analysis label appears:
Read the divergence type (regular or hidden, bullish or bearish)
Check the quality tier (textbook, high quality, or valid)
Review the confluence breakdown - which factors contributed
Look at the chart context - where is price relative to structure, trend, etc.
Observe the behavioral footprint markers nearby - do they support the pattern
STEP 4 - REAL-TIME MONITORING
Watch the dashboard for real-time regime and pressure state
Monitor the current confluence score in the dashboard
When it approaches your threshold, be alert for potential pattern formation
When a new pattern appears (after confirmation delay), evaluate it using the workflow above
Use your trading strategy rules to decide if the setup aligns with your criteria
STEP 5 - POST-PATTERN OBSERVATION
After a pattern appears:
Mark the level on your chart
Observe what price does after the pattern completes
Did price respect the reversal/continuation signal
What was the confluence score of patterns that worked vs. those that failed
Learn which quality tiers and confluence levels produce better results on your specific symbol and timeframe
RECOMMENDED TIMEFRAMES AND ASSET CLASSES
VMDM is timeframe-agnostic and works on any asset with volume data. However, optimal performance varies:
BEST TIMEFRAMES
15-Minute to 1-Hour: Ideal balance of signal frequency and reliability. Pivot confirmation delay is acceptable. Sufficient volume data for pressure analysis.
4-Hour to Daily: Excellent for swing trading. Very high-quality signals. Lower frequency but higher significance. Recommended for learning because patterns are clearer.
1-Minute to 5-Minute: Works but requires adjustment. Increase pivot bars to 5-7 for filtering. Decrease max object history to 30 for performance. Expect more noise.
Weekly/Monthly: Works but very infrequent signals. Increase confluence threshold to 70+ to ensure only major patterns appear.
BEST ASSET CLASSES
Forex Majors: Excellent volume data and clear trends. Pressure analysis works well.
Crypto (Major Pairs): Good volume data. High volatility makes divergences more pronounced. Works very well.
Stock Indices (SPY, QQQ, etc.): Excellent. Clean price action and reliable volume.
Individual Stocks: Works well on high-volume stocks. Low-volume stocks may produce unreliable pressure readings.
Commodities (Gold, Oil, etc.): Works well. Clear trends and reactions.
WHAT THIS INDICATOR CANNOT DO - LIMITATIONS
LIMITATION 1 - It Does Not Predict The Future
VMDM identifies when technical conditions align historically associated with potential reversals or continuations. It does not predict what will happen next. A textbook 95-confluence pattern can still fail if fundamental events, news, or larger timeframe structure override the setup.
LIMITATION 2 - Confirmation Delay Means You Miss Early Entry
In Confirmed and Relaxed modes, the non-repainting design means you receive signals AFTER the pivot is confirmed. Price may have already moved significantly by the time you receive the signal. This is the tradeoff for non-repainting reliability. You can use Real-time mode for faster signals but sacrifice divergence confirmation.
LIMITATION 3 - It Does Not Tell You Position Sizing or Risk Management
VMDM provides technical pattern analysis. It does not calculate stop loss levels, take profit targets, or position sizing. You must apply your own risk management rules. Never risk more than you can afford to lose based on a technical signal.
LIMITATION 4 - Volume Pressure Analysis Requires Reliable Volume Data
On assets with thin volume or unreliable volume reporting, pressure analysis may be inaccurate. Stick to major liquid assets with consistent volume data.
LIMITATION 5 - It Cannot Detect Fundamental Events
VMDM is purely technical. It cannot predict earnings reports, central bank decisions, geopolitical events, or other fundamental catalysts that can override technical patterns.
LIMITATION 6 - Divergence Requires Two Pivots
The indicator cannot detect divergence until at least two pivots of the same type have formed. In strong trends without pullbacks, you may go long periods without signals.
LIMITATION 7 - Institutional Pattern Names Are Interpretive
The behavioral footprint patterns are named using common trading education terminology, but they are detected through technical analysis, not actual institutional data access. The patterns are interpretations based on price and volume behavior.
CONCEPT FOUNDATION - WHY THIS APPROACH WORKS
MARKET PRINCIPLE 1 - Momentum Divergence Precedes Price Reversal
Price is the final output of market forces, but momentum (the rate of change in those forces) shifts first. When price makes a new low but the momentum behind that move is weaker (higher RSI low), it signals that sellers are losing strength even though they temporarily pushed price lower. This precedes reversal. This is a fundamental principle in technical analysis taught by Charles Dow, widely observed in market behavior.
MARKET PRINCIPLE 2 - Volume Reveals Conviction
Price can move on low volume (low conviction) or high volume (high conviction). When price makes a new low on declining volume while RSI shows improving momentum, it suggests the new low is not confirmed by participant conviction. Adding volume pressure analysis to momentum divergence adds a confirmation layer that filters false divergences.
MARKET PRINCIPLE 3 - Anomalies Mark Structural Extremes
When volume spikes significantly but range contracts (absorption), or when price spikes beyond structure then reverses (stop hunt), or when aggressive moves are met with large-wick rejection (exhaustion), these anomalies often mark short-term extremes. Combining these structural observations with momentum analysis creates context.
MARKET PRINCIPLE 4 - Confluence Improves Probability
No single technical factor is reliable in isolation. RSI divergence alone fails frequently. Volume analysis alone cannot time entries. Combining multiple independent factors into a weighted system increases the probability that observed patterns have structural significance rather than random noise.
THE EDUCATIONAL VALUE
By visualizing all four layers simultaneously and breaking down the confluence scoring transparently, VMDM teaches you to think in terms of multi-dimensional analysis rather than single-indicator reliance. Over time, you will learn to recognize these patterns manually and understand which combinations produce better results on your traded assets.
INSTITUTIONAL TERMINOLOGY - IMPORTANT CLARIFICATION
This indicator uses the following terms that are common in trading education:
Institutional Footprint
Absorption (Accumulation / Distribution)
Stop Hunt
Exhaustion
CRITICAL DISCLAIMER:
These terms are EDUCATIONAL LABELS for specific price action and volume behavior patterns detected through technical analysis of publicly available chart data (open, high, low, close, volume). This indicator does NOT have access to:
Actual institutional order flow or order book data
Market maker positions or intentions
Broker stop-loss databases
Non-public trading data
Proprietary institutional information
The patterns labeled as "institutional footprint" are interpretations based on observable price and volume behavior that educational trading literature often associates with potential large-participant activity. The detection is algorithmic pattern recognition, not privileged data access.
When this indicator identifies "absorption," it means it detected high volume within a small range - a condition that MAY indicate large orders being filled but is not confirmation of actual institutional participation.
When it identifies a "stop hunt," it means price briefly penetrated a structural level then reversed - a pattern that MAY have triggered stop losses but is not confirmation that stops were specifically targeted.
When it identifies "exhaustion," it means high volume with large rejection wicks - a pattern that MAY indicate aggressive participation meeting strong opposition but is not confirmation of institutional involvement.
These are technical analysis interpretations, not factual statements about market participant identity or intent.
DISCLAIMER AND RISK WARNING
EDUCATIONAL PURPOSE ONLY
This indicator is designed as an educational tool to help traders learn to recognize technical patterns, understand multi-factor analysis, and practice systematic market observation. It is NOT a trading system, signal service, or financial advice.
NO PERFORMANCE GUARANTEE
Past pattern behavior does not guarantee future results. A pattern that historically preceded price movement in one direction may fail in the future due to changing market conditions, fundamental events, or random variance. Confluence scores reflect historical technical alignment, not future certainty.
TRADING INVOLVES SUBSTANTIAL RISK
Trading financial instruments involves substantial risk of loss. You can lose more than your initial investment. Never trade with money you cannot afford to lose. Always use proper risk management including stop losses, position sizing, and portfolio diversification.
NO PREDICTIVE CLAIMS
This indicator does NOT predict future price movement. It identifies when technical conditions align in patterns that historically have been associated with potential reversals or continuations. Market behavior is probabilistic, not deterministic.
BACKTESTING LIMITATIONS
If you backtest trading strategies using this indicator, ensure you account for:
Realistic commission costs
Realistic slippage (difference between signal price and actual fill price)
Sufficient sample size (minimum 100 trades for statistical relevance)
Reasonable position sizing (risking no more than 1-2 percent of account per trade)
The confirmation delay inherent in the indicator (you cannot enter at the exact pivot in Confirmed mode)
Backtests that do not account for these factors will produce unrealistic results.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Why do signals appear in the past, not at the current bar
A: In Confirmed and Relaxed modes, signals appear at confirmed pivots, which requires waiting for right-side confirmation bars (default 3). This creates a delay but prevents repainting. Use Real-time mode if you want current-bar signals without pivot confirmation.
Q: Can I use this for automated trading
A: You can create alert-based automation, but understand that Confirmed mode signals appear AFTER the pivot with delay, so your entry will not be at the pivot price. Real-time mode signals can change as the current bar develops. Automation requires careful consideration of these factors.
Q: How do I know which confluence score to use
A: Start with 60. Observe which patterns work on your symbol/timeframe. If too many false signals, increase to 70-75. If too few signals, decrease to 55. Quality vs. quantity tradeoff.
Q: Do regular divergences mean I should enter a reversal trade immediately
A: No. Regular divergences indicate momentum exhaustion, which is a WARNING sign that trend may reverse, not a confirmation that it will. Use confluence score, market context, support/resistance, and your strategy rules to make entry decisions. Many divergences fail.
Q: What's the difference between regular and hidden divergence
A: Regular divergence = price and momentum move in opposite directions at extremes = potential reversal signal. Hidden divergence = price and momentum move in opposite directions during pullbacks = potential continuation signal. Hidden divergence suggests the pullback is just a correction within the larger trend.
Q: Why does the pressure zone color sometimes conflict with the divergence direction
A: Pressure is real-time current bar analysis. Divergence is confirmed pivot analysis from the past. They measure different things at different times. A bullish divergence confirmed 3 bars ago might appear during current selling pressure. This is normal.
Q: Can I use this on stocks without volume data
A: No. Volume is required for pressure analysis and behavioral pattern detection. Use only on assets with reliable volume reporting.
Q: How often should I expect signals
A: Depends on timeframe and settings. Daily charts might produce 5-10 signals per month. 1-hour charts might produce 20-30. 15-minute charts might produce 50-100. Adjust confluence threshold to control frequency.
Q: Can I modify the code
A: Yes, this is open source. You can modify for personal use. If you publish a modified version, please credit the original and ensure your publication meets TradingView guidelines.
Q: What if I disagree with a pattern's confluence score
A: The scoring weights are based on general observations and may not suit your specific strategy or asset. You can modify the code to adjust weights if you have data-driven reasons to do so.
Final Notes
VMDM - Volume, Momentum and Divergence Master is an educational multi-layer market analysis system designed to teach systematic pattern recognition through transparent, confluence-weighted signal detection. By combining RSI momentum divergence, volume pressure quantification, behavioral footprint pattern recognition, and quality scoring into a unified framework, it provides a comprehensive learning environment for understanding market structure.
Use this tool to develop your analytical skills, understand how multiple technical factors interact, and learn to distinguish high-quality setups from noise. Remember that technical analysis is probabilistic, not predictive. No indicator replaces proper education, risk management, and trading discipline.
Trade responsibly. Learn continuously. Risk only what you can afford to lose.

Per Bak Self-Organized CriticalityTL;DR: This indicator measures market fragility. It measures the system's vulnerability to cascade failures and phase transitions. I've added four independent stress vectors: tail risk, volatility regime, credit stress, and positioning extremes. This allows us to quantify how susceptible markets are to disproportionate moves from small shocks, similar to how a steep sandpile is primed for avalanches.
Avalanches, forest fires, earthquakes, pandemic outbreaks, and market crashes. What do they all have in common? They are not random.
These events follow power laws - stable systems that naturally evolve toward critical states where small triggers can unleash catastrophic cascades.
For example, if you are building a sandpile, there will be a point with a little bit additional sand will cause a landslide.
Markets build fragility grain by grain, like a sandpile approaching avalanche.
The Per Bak Self-Organized Criticality (SOC) indicator detects when the markets are a few grains away from collapse.
This indicator is highly inspired by the work of Per Bak related to the science of self-organized criticality .
As Bak said:
"The earthquake does not 'know how large it will become'. Thus, any precursor state of a large event is essentially identical to a precursor state of a small event."
For markets, this means:
We cannot predict individual crash size from initial conditions
We can predict statistical distribution of crashes
We can identify periods of increased systemic risk (proximity to critical state)
BTW, this is a forwarding looking indicator and doesn't reprint. :)
The Story of Per Bak
In 1987, Danish physicist Per Bak and his colleagues discovered an important pattern in nature: self-organized criticality.
Their sandpile experiment revealed something: drop grains of sand one by one onto a pile, and the system naturally evolves toward a critical state. Most grains cause nothing. Some trigger small slides. But occasionally a single grain triggers a massive avalanche.
The key insight is that we cannot predict which grain will trigger the avalanche, but you can measure when the pile has reached a critical state.
Why Markets Are the Ultimate SOC System?
Financial markets exhibit all the hallmarks of self-organized criticality:
Interconnected agents (traders, institutions, algorithms) with feedback loops
Non-linear interactions where small events can cascade through the system
Power-law distributions of returns (fat tails, not normal distributions)
Natural evolution toward fragility as leverage builds, correlations tighten, and positioning crowds
Phase transitions where calm markets suddenly shift to crisis regimes
Mathematical Foundation
Power Law Distributions
Traditional finance assumes returns follow a normal distribution. "Markets return 10% on average." But I disagree. Markets follow power laws:
P(x) ∝ x^(-α)
Where P(x) is the probability of an event of size x, and α is the power law exponent (typically 3-4 for financial markets).
What this means: Small moves happen constantly. Medium moves are less frequent. Catastrophic moves are rare but follow predictable probability distributions. The "fat tails" are features of critical systems.
Critical Slowing Down
As systems approach phase transitions, they exhibit critical slowing down—reduced ability to absorb shocks. Mathematically, this appears as:
τ ∝ |T - T_c|^(-ν)
Where τ is the relaxation time, T is the current state, T_c is the critical threshold, and ν is the critical exponent.
Translation: Near criticality, markets take longer to recover from perturbations. Fragility compounds.
Component Aggregation & Non-Linear Emergence
The Per Bak SOC our index aggregates four normalized components (each scaled 0-100) with tunable weights:
SOC = w₁·C_tail + w₂·C_vol + w₃·C_credit + w₄·C_position
Default weights (you can change this):
w₁ = 0.34 (Tail Risk via SKEW)
w₂ = 0.26 (Volatility Regime via VIX term structure)
w₃ = 0.18 (Credit Stress via HYG/LQD + TED spread)
w₄ = 0.22 (Positioning Extremes via Put/Call ratio)
Each component uses percentile ranking over a 252-day lookback combined with absolute thresholds to capture both relative regime shifts and extreme absolute levels.
The Four Pillars Explained
1. Tail Risk (SKEW Index)
Measures options market pricing of fat-tail events. High SKEW indicates elevated outlier probability.
C_tail = 0.7·percentrank(SKEW, 252) + 0.3·((SKEW - 115)/0.5)
2. Volatility Regime (VIX Term Structure)
Combines VIX level with term structure slope. Backwardation signals acute stress.
C_vol = 0.4·VIX_level + 0.35·VIX_slope + 0.25·VIX_ratio
3. Credit Stress (HYG/LQD + TED Spread)
Tracks high-yield deterioration versus investment-grade and interbank lending stress.
C_credit = 0.65·percentrank(LQD/HYG, 252) + 0.35·(TED/0.75)·100
4. Positioning Extremes (Put/Call Ratio)
Detects extreme hedging demand through percentile ranking and z-score analysis.
C_position = 0.6·percentrank(P/C, 252) + 0.4·zscore_normalized
What the Indicator Really Measures?
Not Volatility but Fragility
Markets Going Down ≠ Fragility Building (actually when markets go down, risk and fragility are released)
The 0-100 Scale & Regime Thresholds
The indicator outputs a 0-100 fragility score with four regimes:
🟢 Safe (0-39): System resilient, can absorb normal shocks
🟡 Building (40-54): Early fragility signs, watch for deterioration
🟠 Elevated (55-69): System vulnerable
🔴 Critical (70-100): Highly susceptible to cascade failures

BTC Price Prediction Model [Global PMI]V2🇺🇸 English Guide
1. Introduction
This indicator was created by GW Capital using Gemini Vibe Coding technology. It leverages advanced AI coding capabilities to reconstruct complex macroeconomic models into actionable trading tools.
2. Credits
Special thanks to the original model author, Marty Kendall. His research into the correlation between Bitcoin's price and macroeconomic factors lays the foundation for this algorithm.
3. Model Principles & Formula
This model calculates the "Fair Value" of Bitcoin based on four key macroeconomic pillars. It assumes that Bitcoin's price is a function of Global Liquidity, Network Security, Risk Appetite, and the Economic Cycle.
💡 Unique Insight: PMI & The 4-Year Cycle
A key distinguishing feature of this model is the hypothesis that Bitcoin's famous "4-Year Halving Cycle" may be intrinsically linked to the Global Business Cycle (PMI), rather than just supply shocks.
Therefore, the model incorporates PMI as a valuation "Amplifier".
Note: Due to TradingView data limitations, US PMI is currently used as the proxy for the global cycle.
The Formula
$$\ln(BTC) = \alpha + (1 + \beta \cdot PMI_{z}) \times $$
Global Liquidity (M2): Sum of M2 supply from US, China, Eurozone, and Japan (converted to USD). Represents the pool of fiat money available to flow into assets.
Network Security (Hashrate): Bitcoin's hashrate, representing the physical security and utility of the network.
Risk Appetite (S&P 500): Used as a proxy for global risk sentiment.
Economic Cycle (PMI Z-Score): US Manufacturing PMI is used to amplify or dampen the valuation based on where we are in the business cycle (Expansion vs. Contraction).
4. How to Use
The indicator plots the Fair Value (White Line) and four sentiment bands based on statistical deviation (Z-Score).
Sentiment Zones
🚨 Extreme Greed (Red Zone): Price > +0.3 StdDev. Historically indicates a market top or overheated sentiment.
⚠️ Greed (Orange Zone): Price > +0.15 StdDev. Bullish momentum is strong but caution is advised.
⚖️ Fair Value (White Line): The theoretical "correct" price based on macro data.
😨 Fear (Teal Zone): Price < -0.15 StdDev. Undervalued territory.
💎 Extreme Fear (Green Zone): Price < -0.3 StdDev. Historically a generational buying opportunity.
Sentiment Score (0-100)
100: Maximum Greed (Top)
50: Fair Value
0: Maximum Fear (Bottom)
5. Usage Recommendations
Timeframe: Daily (1D) or Weekly (1W) ONLY.
Reason: The underlying data sources (M2, PMI) are updated monthly. The S&P 500 and Hashrate are daily. Using this indicator on intraday charts (e.g., 15m, 1h, 4h) adds no value because the fundamental data does not change that fast.
Long-Term View: This is a macro-cycle indicator designed for identifying cycle tops and bottoms over months and years, not for day trading.
6. Disclaimer
This indicator is for educational and informational purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice. The model relies on historical correlations which may not hold true in the future. All trading involves risk. GW Capital and the creators assume no responsibility for any trading losses.

1. 简介
本指标由 GW Capital 使用 Gemini Vibe Coding 技术制作。利用先进的 AI 编程能力，将复杂的宏观经济模型重构为可执行的交易工具。
2. 致谢
特别感谢模型原作者 Marty Kendall。他对这一算法的研究奠定了基础，揭示了比特币价格与宏观经济因素之间的深层联系。
3. 模型原理与公式
该模型基于四大宏观经济支柱计算比特币的“公允价值”。它假设比特币的价格是全球流动性、网络安全性、风险偏好和经济周期的函数。
💡 独家洞察：PMI 与 4年周期
本模型的一个核心独特之处在于：我们认为比特币著名的“4年减半周期”背后的真正驱动力，可能与全球商业周期 (PMI) 高度同步，而不仅仅是供应减半。
因此，模型特别引入 PMI 作为估值的“放大器” (Amplifier)。
注：由于 TradingView 数据源限制，目前采用历史数据最详尽的美国 PMI 作为全球周期的代理指标。
模型公式
$$\ln(BTC) = \alpha + (1 + \beta \cdot PMI_{z}) \times $$
全球流动性 (M2): 美、中、欧、日四大经济体的 M2 总量（折算为美元）。代表可流入资产的法币资金池。
网络安全性 (Hashrate): 比特币全网算力，代表网络的物理安全性和实用价值。
风险偏好 (S&P 500): 作为全球风险情绪的代理指标。
经济周期 (PMI Z-Score): 美国制造业 PMI 用于根据商业周期（扩张 vs 收缩）来放大或抑制估值。
4. 指标用法
指标会在图表上绘制 公允价值 (白线) 以及基于统计偏差 (Z-Score) 的四条情绪带。
情绪区间
🚨 极度贪婪 (红色区域): 价格 > +0.3 标准差。历史上通常预示市场顶部或情绪过热。
⚠️ 一般贪婪 (橙色区域): 价格 > +0.15 标准差。多头动能强劲，但需谨慎。
⚖️ 公允价值 (白线): 基于宏观数据的理论“正确”价格。
😨 一般恐惧 (青色区域): 价格 < -0.15 标准差。进入低估区域。
💎 极度恐惧 (绿色区域): 价格 < -0.3 标准差。历史上通常是代际级别的买入机会。
情绪评分 (0-100)
100: 极度贪婪 (顶部)
50: 公允价值
0: 极度恐惧 (底部)
5. 使用建议
周期: 仅限日线 (1D) 或周线 (1W)。
原因: 底层数据源（M2, PMI）是月度更新的。标普500和算力是日度更新的。在日内图表（如15分钟、1小时、4小时）上使用此指标没有任何意义，因为基本面数据不会变化得那么快。
长期视角: 这是一个宏观周期指标，旨在识别数月甚至数年的周期顶部和底部，而非用于日内交易。
6. 免责声明
本指标仅供教育和参考使用，不构成任何财务建议。该模型依赖于历史相关性，未来可能不再适用。所有交易均涉及风险。GW Capital 及制作者不对任何交易损失承担责任。

Economic Cycle (PMI Z-Score): US Manufacturing PMI is used to amplify or dampen the valuation based on where we are in the business cycle (Expansion vs. Contraction).
4. How to Use
The indicator plots the Fair Value (White Line) and four sentiment bands based on statistical deviation (Z-Score).
Sentiment Zones
🚨 Extreme Greed (Red Zone): Price > +0.3 StdDev. Historically indicates a market top or overheated sentiment.
⚠️ Greed (Orange Zone): Price > +0.15 StdDev. Bullish momentum is strong but caution is advised.
⚖️ Fair Value (White Line): The theoretical "correct" price based on macro data.
😨 Fear (Teal Zone): Price < -0.15 StdDev. Undervalued territory.
💎 Extreme Fear (Green Zone): Price < -0.3 StdDev. Historically a generational buying opportunity.
Sentiment Score (0-100)
100: Maximum Greed (Top)
50: Fair Value
0: Maximum Fear (Bottom)
5. Usage Recommendations
Timeframe: Daily (1D) or Weekly (1W) ONLY.
Reason: The underlying data sources (M2, PMI) are updated monthly. The S&P 500 and Hashrate are daily. Using this indicator on intraday charts (e.g., 15m, 1h, 4h) adds no value because the fundamental data does not change that fast.
Long-Term View: This is a macro-cycle indicator designed for identifying cycle tops and bottoms over months and years, not for day trading.

Fibonacci Projection with Volume & Delta Profile (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Fibonacci Projection with Volume & Delta Profile (Zeiierman) blends classic Fibonacci swing analysis with modern volume-flow reading to create a unified, projection-based market framework. The indicator automatically detects the latest swing high and swing low, builds a complete Fibonacci structure, and then projects future extension targets with clear visual pathways.
What makes this tool unique is the integration of two volume-based systems directly into the Fibonacci structure. A Fib-aligned Volume Profile shows how bullish and bearish volume accumulated inside the swing range, while a separate Delta Profile reveals the imbalance of buy–sell pressure inside each Fibonacci interval. Together, these elements transform the standard Fibonacci tool into a multi-dimensional structural and volume-flow map.
█ How It Works
The indicator first detects the most recent swing high and swing low using the Period setting. That swing defines the Fibonacci range, from which the script draws retracement levels (0.236–0.786) and builds a forward projection path using the chosen Projection Level and a 1.272 extension.
Along this path, it draws projection lines, target boxes, and percentage labels that show how far each projected leg extends relative to the previous one.
Inside the same swing range, the script builds a Fib-based Volume Profile by splitting price into rows and assigning each bar’s volume as bullish (close > open) or bearish (close ≤ open). On top of that, it calculates a Volume Delta Profile between each pair of fib levels, showing whether buyers or sellers dominated that band and how strong that imbalance was.
█ How to Use
This tool helps traders quickly understand market structure and where the price may be heading next. The projection engine shows the most likely future targets, highlights strong or weak legs in the move, and updates automatically whenever a new swing forms. This ensures you always see the most relevant and up-to-date projection path.
The Fib Volume Profile shows where volume supported the move and where it did not. Thick bullish buckets reveal zones where buyers stepped in aggressively, often becoming retestable support. Thick bearish buckets highlight zones of resistance or rejection, particularly useful if projected levels align with prior liquidity.
The Delta Profile adds a second dimension to volume reading by showing where buy–sell pressure was truly imbalanced. A projected Fibonacci target that aligns with a strong bullish delta, for example, may suggest continuation. A projection into a band dominated by bearish delta may warn of reversal or hesitation.

Relative Volume EMA (RVOL)Relative Volume EMA (RVOL) measures the current bar’s volume relative to its typical volume over a selected lookback period.
It helps traders identify whether a price move is supported by real participation or if it’s occurring on weak, low-quality volume.
This version uses:
RVOL = Current Volume ÷ Volume EMA
Volume EMA Length: adjustable
Signal Threshold: a customizable horizontal line (default = 1.2)
How to Use
1. RVOL > 1.2 → High-Quality Momentum
A value above 1.2 indicates that the current bar has at least 20% more volume than normal, suggesting:
Strong conviction
Algorithmic activity
Momentum-backed breakout or breakdown
Higher probability trend continuation
These bars are ideal for confirming entries after a technical setup (e.g., pullback, engulfing pattern, Ichimoku trend confirmation, etc.).
2. RVOL < 1.0 → Weak or Low-Quality Move
When RVOL is below 1.0:
Volume is below average
Moves are more likely to fail or reverse
Breakouts are unreliable
Triggers lack institutional participation
These bars are best avoided for trade entries.
Why This Indicator Is Useful
In many strategies, price alone is not enough.
RVOL acts as a filter to ensure that your signals occur during times when the market is actually active and committed.
Typical use cases:
Confirm trend-following entries
Validate pullbacks and breakout candles
Filter out low-volume chop
Identify session-based volume surges
Improve risk-to-reward quality by entering only during true momentum
Recommended Settings
EMA Length: 20
Threshold Line: 1.2
Works well on Forex, Crypto, and Indices
Best used on 15m, 30m, 1H, and 4H charts

RSI Forecast Colorful [DiFlip]RSI Forecast Colorful
Introducing one of the most complete RSI indicators available — a highly customizable analytical tool that integrates advanced prediction capabilities. RSI Forecast Colorful is an evolution of the classic RSI, designed to anticipate potential future RSI movements using linear regression. Instead of simply reacting to historical data, this indicator provides a statistical projection of the RSI’s future behavior, offering a forward-looking view of market conditions.
⯁ Real-Time RSI Forecasting
For the first time, a public RSI indicator integrates linear regression (least squares method) to forecast the RSI’s future behavior. This innovative approach allows traders to anticipate market movements based on historical trends. By applying Linear Regression to the RSI, the indicator displays a projected trendline n periods ahead, helping traders make more informed buy or sell decisions.
⯁ Highly Customizable
The indicator is fully adaptable to any trading style. Dozens of parameters can be optimized to match your system. All 28 long and short entry conditions are selectable and configurable, allowing the construction of quantitative, statistical, and automated trading models. Full control over signals ensures precise alignment with your strategy.
⯁ Innovative and Science-Based
This is the first public RSI indicator to apply least-squares predictive modeling to RSI calculations. Technically, it incorporates machine-learning logic into a classic indicator. Using Linear Regression embeds strong statistical foundations into RSI forecasting, making this tool especially valuable for traders seeking quantitative and analytical advantages.
⯁ Scientific Foundation: Linear Regression
Linear regression is a fundamental statistical method that models the relationship between a dependent variable y and one or more independent variables x. The general formula for simple linear regression is:
y = β₀ + β₁x + ε
where:
y = predicted variable (e.g., future RSI value)
x = explanatory variable (e.g., bar index or time)
β₀ = intercept (value of y when x = 0)
β₁ = slope (rate of change of y relative to x)
ε = random error term
The goal is to estimate β₀ and β₁ by minimizing the sum of squared errors. This is achieved using the least squares method, ensuring the best linear fit to historical data. Once the coefficients are calculated, the model extends the regression line forward, generating the RSI projection based on recent trends.
⯁ Least Squares Estimation
To minimize the error between predicted and observed values, we use the formulas:
β₁ = Σ((xᵢ - x̄)(yᵢ - ȳ)) / Σ((xᵢ - x̄)²)
β₀ = ȳ - β₁x̄
Σ denotes summation; x̄ and ȳ are the means of x and y; and i ranges from 1 to n (number of observations). These equations produce the best linear unbiased estimator under the Gauss–Markov assumptions — constant variance (homoscedasticity) and a linear relationship between variables.
⯁ Linear Regression in Machine Learning
Linear regression is a foundational component of supervised learning. Its simplicity and precision in numerical prediction make it essential in AI, predictive algorithms, and time-series forecasting. Applying regression to RSI is akin to embedding artificial intelligence inside a classic indicator, adding a new analytical dimension.
⯁ Visual Interpretation
Imagine a time series of RSI values like this:
Time →
RSI →
The regression line smooths these historical values and projects itself n periods forward, creating a predictive trajectory. This projected RSI line can cross the actual RSI, generating sophisticated entry and exit signals. In summary, the RSI Forecast Colorful indicator provides both the current RSI and the forecasted RSI, allowing comparison between past and future trend behavior.
⯁ Summary of Scientific Concepts Used
Linear Regression: Models relationships between variables using a straight line.
Least Squares: Minimizes squared prediction errors for optimal fit.
Time-Series Forecasting: Predicts future values from historical patterns.
Supervised Learning: Predictive modeling based on known output values.

⯁ Conclusion
By combining RSI and linear regression, the RSI Forecast Colorful allows traders to predict market momentum rather than simply follow it. It's not just another indicator: it's a scientific advancement in technical analysis technology. Offering 28 configurable entry conditions and advanced signals, this open-source indicator paves the way for innovative quantitative systems.
⯁ Example of simple linear regression with one independent variable
This example demonstrates how a basic linear regression works when there is only one independent variable influencing the dependent variable. This type of model is used to identify a direct relationship between two variables.
⯁ In linear regression, observations (red) are considered the result of random deviations (green) from an underlying relationship (blue) between a dependent variable (y) and an independent variable (x)
This concept illustrates that sampled data points rarely align perfectly with the true trend line. Instead, each observed point represents the combination of the true underlying relationship and a random error component.
⯁ Visualizing heteroscedasticity in a scatterplot with 100 random fitted values using Matlab
Heteroscedasticity occurs when the variance of the errors is not constant across the range of fitted values. This visualization highlights how the spread of data can change unpredictably, which is an important factor in evaluating the validity of regression models.
⯁ The datasets in Anscombe’s quartet were designed to have nearly the same linear regression line (as well as nearly identical means, standard deviations, and correlations) but look very different when plotted
This classic example shows that summary statistics alone can be misleading. Even with identical numerical metrics, the datasets display completely different patterns, emphasizing the importance of visual inspection when interpreting a model.
⯁ Result of fitting a set of data points with a quadratic function
This example illustrates how a second-degree polynomial model can better fit certain datasets that do not follow a linear trend. The resulting curve reflects the true shape of the data more accurately than a straight line.
⯁ What Is RSI?
The RSI (Relative Strength Index) is a technical indicator developed by J. Welles Wilder. It measures the velocity and magnitude of recent price movements to identify overbought and oversold conditions. The RSI ranges from 0 to 100 and is commonly used to identify potential reversals and evaluate trend strength.
⯁ How RSI Works
RSI is calculated from average gains and losses over a set period (commonly 14 bars) and plotted on a 0–100 scale. It consists of three key zones:
Overbought: RSI above 70 may signal an overbought market.
Oversold: RSI below 30 may signal an oversold market.
Neutral Zone: RSI between 30 and 70, indicating no extreme condition.
These zones help identify potential price reversals and confirm trend strength.

Omega Correlation [OmegaTools]Omega Correlation (Ω CRR) is a cross-asset analytics tool designed to quantify both the strength of the relationship between two instruments and the tendency of one to move ahead of the other. It is intended for traders who work with indices, futures, FX, commodities, equities and ETFs, and who require something more robust than a simple linear correlation line.
The indicator operates in two distinct modes, selected via the “Show” parameter: Correlation and Anticipation. In Correlation mode, the script focuses on how tightly the current chart and the chosen second asset move together. In Anticipation mode, it shifts to a lead–lag perspective and estimates whether the second asset tends to behave as a leader or a follower relative to the symbol on the chart.
In both modes, the core inputs are the chart symbol and a user-selected second symbol. Internally, both assets are transformed into normalized log-returns: the script computes logarithmic returns, removes short-term mean and scales by realized volatility, then clips extreme values. This normalisation allows the tool to compare behaviour across assets with different price levels and volatility profiles.
In Correlation mode, the indicator computes a composite correlation score that typically ranges between –1 and +1. Values near +1 indicate strong and persistent positive co-movement, values near zero indicate an unstable or weak link, and values near –1 indicate a stable anti-correlation regime. The composite score is constructed from three components.
The first component is a normalized return co-movement measure. After transforming both instruments into normalized returns, the script evaluates how similar those returns are bar by bar. When the two assets consistently deliver returns of similar sign and magnitude, this component is high and positive. When they frequently diverge or move in opposite directions, it becomes negative. This captures short-term co-movement in a volatility-adjusted way.
The second component focuses on high–low swing alignment. Rather than looking only at closes, it examines the direction of changes in highs and lows for each bar. If both instruments are printing higher highs and higher lows together, or lower highs and lower lows together, the swing structure is considered aligned. Persistent alignment contributes positively to the correlation score, while repeated mismatches between the swing directions reduce it. This helps differentiate between superficial price noise and structural similarity in trend behaviour.
The third component is a classical Pearson correlation on closing prices, computed over a longer lookback. This serves as a stabilising backbone that summarises general co-movement over a broader window. By combining normalized return co-movement, swing alignment and standard price correlation with calibrated weights, the Correlation mode provides a richer view than a single linear measure, capturing both short-term dynamic interaction and longer-term structural linkage.
In Anticipation mode, Omega Correlation estimates whether the second asset tends to lead or lag the current chart. The output is again a continuous score around the range. Positive values suggest that the second asset is acting more as a leader, with its past moves bearing informative value for subsequent moves of the chart symbol. Negative values indicate that the second asset behaves more like a laggard or follower. Values near zero suggest that no stable lead–lag structure can be identified.
The anticipation score is built from four elements inspired by quantitative lead–lag and price discovery analysis. The first element is a residual lead correlation, conceptually similar to Granger-style logic. The script first measures how much of the chart symbol’s normalized returns can be explained by its own lagged values. It then removes that component and studies the correlation between the residuals and lagged returns of the second asset. If the second asset’s past returns consistently explain what the chart symbol does beyond its own autoregressive behaviour, this residual correlation becomes significantly positive.
The second element is an asymmetric lead–lag structure measure. It compares the strength of relationships in both directions across multiple lags: the correlation of the current symbol with lagged versions of the second asset (candidate leader) versus the correlation of lagged values of the current symbol with the present values of the second asset. If the forward direction (second asset leading the first) is systematically stronger than the backward direction, the structure is skewed toward genuine leadership of the second asset.
The third element is a relative price discovery score, constructed by building a dynamic hedge ratio between the two prices and defining a spread. The indicator looks at how changes in each asset contribute to correcting deviations in this spread over time. When the chart symbol tends to do most of the adjustment while the second asset remains relatively stable, it suggests that the second asset is taking a greater role in determining the equilibrium price and the chart symbol is adjusting to it. The difference in adjustment intensity between the two instruments is summarised into a single score.
The fourth element is a breakout follow-through causality component. The script scans for breakout events on the second asset, where its price breaks out of a recent high or low range while the chart symbol has not yet done so. It then evaluates whether the chart symbol subsequently confirms the breakout direction, remains neutral, or moves against it. Events where the second asset breaks and the first asset later follows in the same direction add positive contribution, while failed or contrarian follow-through reduce this component. The contribution is also lightly modulated by the strength of the breakout, via the underlying normalized return.
The four elements of the Anticipation mode are combined into a single leading correlation score, providing a compact and interpretable measure of whether the second asset currently behaves as an effective early signal for the symbol you trade.
To aid interpretation, Omega Correlation builds dynamic bands around the active series (correlation or anticipation). It estimates a long-term central tendency and a typical deviation around it, plotting upper and lower bands that highlight unusually high or low values relative to recent history. These bands can be used to distinguish routine fluctuations from genuinely extreme regimes.
The script also computes percentile-based levels for the correlation series and uses them to track two special price levels on the main chart: lost correlation levels and gained correlation levels. When the correlation drops below an upper percentile threshold, the current price is stored as a lost correlation level and plotted as a horizontal line. When the correlation rises above a lower percentile threshold, the current price is stored as a gained correlation level. These levels mark zones where a historically strong relationship between the two markets broke down or re-emerged, and can be used to frame divergence, convergence and spread opportunities.
An information panel summarises, in real time, whether the second asset is behaving more as a leading, lagging or independent instrument according to the anticipation score, and suggests whether the current environment is more conducive to de-alignment, re-alignment or classic spread behaviour based on the correlation regime. This makes the tool directly interpretable even for users who are not familiar with all the underlying statistical details.
Typical applications for Omega Correlation include intermarket analysis (for example, index vs index, commodity vs related equity sector, FX vs bonds), dynamic hedge sizing, regime detection for algorithmic strategies, and the identification of lead–lag structures where a macro driver or benchmark can be monitored as an early signal for the instrument actually traded. The indicator can be applied across intraday and higher timeframes, with the understanding that the strength and nature of relationships will differ across horizons.
Omega Correlation is designed as an advanced analytical framework, not as a standalone trading system. Correlation and lead–lag relationships are statistical in nature and can change abruptly, especially around macro events, regime shifts or liquidity shocks. A positive anticipation reading does not guarantee that the second asset will always move first, and a high correlation regime can break without warning. All outputs of this tool should be combined with independent analysis, sound risk management and, when appropriate, backtesting or forward testing on the user’s specific instruments and timeframes.
The intention behind Omega Correlation is to bring techniques inspired by quantitative research, such as normalized return analysis, residual correlation, asymmetric lead–lag structure, price discovery logic and breakout event studies, into an accessible TradingView indicator. It is intended for traders who want a structured, professional way to understand how markets interact and to incorporate that information into their discretionary or systematic decision-making processes.
1D & 1W Institutional Trend The 1D & 1W Institutional Trend is a multi-timeframe (MTF) trend-following system designed to align traders with major "macro" market moves. Instead of relying on noisy intraday data, this indicator pulls data from the Daily (1D) and Weekly (1W) timeframes to construct a robust trend baseline, regardless of the chart timeframe you are currently viewing.
The core logic is based on the interaction between a Fast Institutional EMA (Daily) and a Slow Institutional EMA (Weekly). When the Daily trend crosses above the Weekly trend, it signals a significant shift in market structure. To ensure signal quality, the script incorporates a "Smart Filter" engine that checks for Momentum (RSI) and Volatility (ATR) before generating entry signals, preventing trades during exhausted or dead markets.
Key Features
Multi-Timeframe Engine: Projects Daily and Weekly moving averages onto lower timeframe charts (e.g., 1H or 4H) to show the "Big Picture."
Non-Repainting Logic: Utilizes closed-bar data to ensure that historical signals match live trading conditions strictly.
Algorithmic Filtering:
Momentum Filter: Rejects Buy signals if RSI is overbought and Sell signals if RSI is oversold.
Volatility Filter: Rejects signals during low-volatility "compression" zones using ATR.
Institutional Dashboard: A data panel tracking the macro trend status, trend strength (Spread %), and filter conditions.
How to Use
1. The Trend Cloud The visual core of the indicator is the "Cloud" formed between the two Moving Averages.
Green Cloud: The Daily Average is above the Weekly Average. The macro trend is Bullish. Look for long positions.
Red Cloud: The Daily Average is below the Weekly Average. The macro trend is Bearish. Look for short positions.
The Midline: The gray line represents the "Fair Value" price between the two timeframes. It often acts as dynamic support or resistance during a trend.
2. Signal Triangles Discrete shapes appear only when a crossover is confirmed AND all filters are met.
Up Triangle: Confirmed Bullish Crossover (Daily crosses over Weekly) + RSI is not overbought + Volatility is active.
Down Triangle: Confirmed Bearish Crossover (Daily crosses under Weekly) + RSI is not oversold + Volatility is active.
3. The Dashboard Located in the bottom right, this table provides a health check of the current trend:
Macro Trend: Displays BULLISH or BEARISH based on the cloud direction.
Trend Spread %: Measures the distance between the two EMAs. A widening percentage indicates a strengthening trend, while a narrowing percentage suggests momentum loss.
RSI Condition: Displays "SAFE" (good to trade) or "EXTENDED" (too risky).
Volatility: Displays "EXPANSION" (good movement) or "COMPRESSION" (flat market).
4. Timeframe Rules Because this indicator uses Daily and Weekly data, your chart timeframe must be lower than the Fast Trend Timeframe.
Correct: Viewing a 1-Hour chart with 1D/1W settings.
Incorrect: Viewing a Weekly chart with 1D/1W settings (this will trigger an error message on the screen).

Anomaly Detection: Specialized logic to flag high-momentum "FOMO" events and high-volatility "Panic" drops.
Divergences: Automatically spots bearish and bullish discrepancies between the sentiment index and price action.
Live Dashboard: A real-time data table displaying current sentiment zones, intensity scores, and volume ratios.
How to Use
1. The Fear & Greed Index The main oscillator line moves between 0 and 100 to visualize market sentiment:
0-20 (Extreme Fear): Deeply oversold; potential capitulation or buying opportunity.
20-40 (Fear): General bearish sentiment.
40-60 (Neutral): Indecisive market.
60-80 (Greed): General bullish sentiment.
80-100 (Extreme Greed): Overbought conditions; potential for a pullback.
2. Visual Signals
FOMO (Triangle Up): Marks candles with excessive buying volume and RSI momentum.
Panic (Triangle Down): Marks candles with sharp percentage drops and volatility spikes.
Divergences (Circles): distinct markers appear when price action contradicts the sentiment index, often signaling a reversal.
3. The Dashboard Located on the chart, the dashboard provides a snapshot of the current market state, including the specific "Intensity" of FOMO or Panic events and a Volume-to-MA ratio to gauge participation.
4. Alerts The script is fully integrated with the alert system. You can set alerts for "Any alert() function call" to receive dynamic notifications for FOMO detections, Panic drops, Extreme Zone entries, and confirmed Divergences.

Liquidity Structure & Sweeps [Visualized]Liquidity Structure & Sweeps | 流动性结构与猎杀
1. Design Philosophy & Logic
This indicator is designed based on Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Market Microstructure principles. Unlike traditional indicators that rely on lagging averages or repainting fractals, this script focuses on "Objective Structure" and "Liquidity Grabs".
The core design philosophy rests on three pillars:
Zero Repainting (Real-time Integrity): We utilize a strict "Left-Side Confirmation" algorithm. A structure level is only stored in memory when the candle is fully closed (barstate.isconfirmed). This ensures that the historical signals you see are exactly what happened in real-time.
Institutional Memory (Visualized): Markets "remember" key levels. This script draws dashed lines extending from valid pivot points. These lines represent "resting liquidity" (Stop Orders). They remain on the chart until the price interacts with them.
Sweep vs. Breakout: Not all breaches are equal. We specifically look for "Sweeps" (Liquidity Grabs) — where price pierces a level but closes back inside. This is a classic sign of absorption and potential reversal, distinct from a structural breakout.
2. Key Features
Visualized Order Blocks: Automatically draws potential support (Green Dotted) and resistance (Red Dotted) lines based on fractal points.
Wick Detection: Filters out strong momentum breakouts. Signals are only generated when a specific "Wick Ratio" is met, indicating a rejection.
Clean Charts: Features a "Garbage Collection" mechanism. Once a level is swept, the line is removed, and a signal dot is placed. Old, untouched levels are automatically cycled out to prevent chart clutter.
3. How to Use
The Lines (Context):
Red Dotted Line: Buy-side Liquidity (Resistance). Expect potential shorts or breakouts here.
Green Dotted Line: Sell-side Liquidity (Support). Expect potential longs or breakdowns here.
The Signals (Action):
Red Dot (Bearish Sweep): Price spiked above a Resistance Line but closed below it. This suggests long stops were hunted, and bears are stepping in.
Green Dot (Bullish Sweep): Price spiked below a Support Line but closed above it. This suggests short stops were hunted, and bulls are stepping in.
Configuration:
Structure Length: Adjusts sensitivity. Higher values (e.g., 20-50) find major swing points; lower values (e.g., 5-10) find scalping setups.
Wick Filter %: The minimum size of the wick relative to the breakout. Increase this to filter for only the most dramatic rejections.
4. Developer Notes & Considerations
Why do lines disappear? In this logic, liquidity is treated as "Fuel". Once a level is swept (the stop orders are triggered), the fuel is consumed. Keeping the line would clutter the chart with invalid data.
Why is the dot small? The indicator is designed to be part of a toolchain, not a standalone signal. The minimalist design prevents visual interference with price action or other indicators.
1. 设计思路与核心逻辑
本指标基于 聪明钱概念 (SMC) 与 市场微观结构 原理设计。不同于依赖滞后均线或存在重绘问题的传统分形指标，本脚本专注于捕捉 “客观结构” 与 “流动性猎杀 (Liquidity Grabs)”。
核心设计哲学包含三大支柱：
零重绘 (Zero Repainting): 我们采用了严格的“左侧确认”算法。所有的结构位仅在K线完全收盘 (barstate.isconfirmed) 后才会被记录。这保证了您回测看到的信号与实盘完全一致，杜绝“未来函数”陷阱。
可视化的机构记忆: 市场是有记忆的。本脚本会从有效的波段高低点引出虚线。这些虚线代表了“沉睡的流动性”（止损盘聚集区）。它们会一直延伸，直到价格触碰它们。
区分“猎杀”与“突破”: 并不是所有的破位都是一样的。我们专注于识别“扫损（Sweep）”——即价格刺破了关键位，但收盘价收回了关键位内部。这是典型的吸筹或派发信号，与趋势延续的真突破有本质区别。
2. 主要功能
结构可视化: 自动基于分形点绘制潜在的支撑线（绿色虚线）和阻力线（红色虚线）。
插针检测: 过滤掉强势的实体突破。只有当价格出现明显的“长影线”拒绝行为时，才会触发信号。
图表自清洁: 内置“垃圾回收”机制。一旦某个关键位的流动性被猎杀（触发信号），该线条会被自动删除。过旧且未被触碰的线条也会被自动替换，保持图表整洁。
3. 使用指南
线条 (市场语境):
红色虚线: 买方流动性池（阻力位）。
绿色虚线: 卖方流动性池（支撑位）。
信号点 (交易动作):
红色圆点 (看跌猎杀): 价格刺破了红色阻力线，但收盘价回落到线下方。这暗示多头止损被触发，主力可能正在建立空单。
绿色圆点 (看涨猎杀): 价格刺破了绿色支撑线，但收盘价反弹到线上方。这暗示空头止损被触发，主力可能正在建立多单。
参数设置建议:
Structure Length (结构周期): 调整灵敏度。数值越大（如 20-50）锁定大级别波段；数值越小（如 5-10）适合短线剥头皮。
Wick Filter % (影线过滤): 设置影线占价格波动的最小比例。调大该数值可以只看最剧烈的反转信号。
4. 开发者注记与潜在考量
为什么线条会消失？ 在本逻辑中，流动性被视为“燃料”。一旦发生猎杀（止损单成交），该位置的燃料即被消耗。移除线条是为了防止无效数据干扰判断。
为什么圆点设计得很小？ 该指标旨在成为您交易工具链的一部分，而非唯一的决策依据。极简设计是为了避免干扰裸K形态或其他指标的观察。
===============================================================
这个脚本（我们称之为 Liq Structure Script）本质上是一个基于价格行为（Price Action）的结构猎杀探测器。
以下是详细的深度对比分析：
1. 如何使用？ (实战操作手册)
不要把它当作“红灯停绿灯行”的傻瓜指标。把它当作一个**“战场地图”**。
第一阶段：观察结构 (The Setup)
图表上会自动画出 红色虚线（上方压力）和 绿色虚线（下方支撑）。
解读：告诉自己，“这里埋着很多人的止损单”。不要在这里盲目追涨杀跌。
第二阶段：等待猎杀 (The Trigger)
耐心等待价格冲向这些虚线。
关键动作：价格刺破虚线，然后迅速收回。
信号确认：虚线消失，留下一个 红点（顶部猎杀）或 绿点（底部猎杀）。
第三阶段：进场逻辑 (The Execution)
做空逻辑：出现红点 + K线留长上影线 → 说明多头试图突破失败，被主力“倒了一盆冷水”。此时可尝试做空，止损设在刚刚那个最高点上方一点点。
做多逻辑：出现绿点 + K线留长下影线 → 说明空头试图砸盘失败，被主力接住了。
传统爆量是“燃料”，Liq 脚本是“引爆点”。没有引爆点的爆量可能是空转；没有爆量的引爆点可能是假摔。Liq 脚本是一个免费、轻量级、基于K线逻辑的替代品。它不需要你买昂贵的数据服务，它利用的是“图表形态学”中的流动性共识。
结论：如何定位这个工具？
这个脚本不是“预测未来的水晶球”，而是一个**“高胜率区域提示器”**。
用它来找位置（哪里有陷阱？）。
用成交量来做确认（是不是真的有主力介入？）。
用宏观逻辑来定方向（现在该做多还是做空？）。
它是你交易工具链中负责**“微观入场时机（Timing）”**的那一环。
Psychological Price Level GBPJPY (.250 / .750)This indicator is designed for GBPJPY traders who work with precision and smart-money-based analysis. It automatically plots psychological price levels at .250 and .750, which are known institutional reference points that often influence market structure, price reactions, and liquidity behavior. Unlike typical round-number indicators, this tool focuses specifically on quarter levels, which are frequently used by algorithms, banks, and experienced institutional traders.
Fixed and Reliable Levels
As price evolves, the levels update automatically and remain fixed on the chart without shifting when you scroll. This ensures that the levels always stay anchored to relevant market structure, making them reliable reference points for planning entries, targets, or stop placements.
Customization
The indicator allows full customization. You can freely adjust the line color, line thickness, and line style to match your personal trading chart layout. You can also choose whether lines extend left, right, or both directions, making the tool flexible enough to fit minimalist or highly marked-up workspaces.
Why These Levels Matter
In smart money trading approaches, the .250 and .750 levels often act as magnetic zones. Price frequently gravitates toward them to test liquidity or engineer traps before continuing its move. These levels may serve as rejection points, breakout confirmation zones, or take-profit areas depending on the broader context. Because they frequently align with order blocks, fair value gaps, and market structure shifts, they can add meaningful confluence to directional bias and trade timing.
Who Can Benefit
This tool is particularly useful for scalpers, day traders, and swing traders who base decisions on liquidity behavior and institutional logic. It works well on any timeframe and complements concepts such as premium and discount models, inefficiencies, fair value gaps, and volume imbalances. Many traders find that these price levels help them identify reactions earlier, refine entries, and improve confidence when executing trades.
Final Note
If this indicator supports your trading workflow, feel free to leave a comment or mark it as a favorite + give it a BOOST . Your feedback helps guide future improvements and ensures the tool continues evolving for serious GBPJPY traders.
Happy trading — and stay precise. 🚀📊
Volume Gaps & Imbalances (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Volume Gaps & Imbalances (Zeiierman) is an advanced market-structure and order-flow visualizer that maps where the market traded, where it did not, and how buyer-vs-seller pressure accumulated across the entire price range.
The core of the indicator is a price-by-price volume profile built from Bullish and Bearish volume assignments. The script highlights:
True zero-volume voids (regions of no traded volume)
Bull/Bear imbalance rows (horizontal volume slices)
A multi-section Delta Panel, showing aggregated Buy–Sell pressure per vertical sector
A clean separation between profile structure, volume efficiency, and delta flows
Together, these components reveal market inefficiencies, displacement zones, and fair-value regions that price tends to revisit — making it an exceptional tool for structural trading, order-flow analysis, and contextual confluence.
Highlights
Identifies true volume voids (untraded price regions), more precisely than standard FVG tools
Plots Bull vs Bear volume at each price row for fine-grained imbalance reading
Includes a sector-based Delta Grid that aggregates Buy–Sell dominance
█ How It Works
⚪ Profile Construction
The indicator scans a user-defined Lookback window and divides the full high–low range into Rows. Each bar's volume is allocated into the correct price bucket:
Bullish volume when close > open
Bearish volume when close <= open
This produces three values per price level:
Bull Volume
Bear Volume
Total Volume & Imbalance Profile
Rows where no volume at all occurred are marked as volume gaps — signaling true untraded zones, often produced by impulsive imbalanced moves.
⚪ Zero-Volume Gaps (True Voids)
Unlike candle-based Fair Value Gaps (FVGs), volume gaps identify the deeper, structural inefficiency: Price moved so fast through a region that no trades occurred at those prices. These areas often attract revisits because liquidity never exchanged hands there.
⚪ Bull/Bear Volume Imbalance
Every price row is drawn using two colored horizontal segments:
Bull segment proportional to bullish volume
Bear segment proportional to bearish volume
This reveals where buyers or sellers dominated individual price levels.
⚪ Delta Panel
The full volume profile is cut into Summary Sections. For each block, the script computes: Δ = (Bull Volume − Bear Volume) ÷ Total Volume × 100%
█ How to Use
⚪ Spot True Voids & Inefficiencies
Zero-volume zones highlight where the price moved without trading. These areas often behave like:
Refill zones during retracements
Targets during displacement
Thin regions price slices through quickly
Ideal for both SMC-style trading and structural mapping.
⚪ Identify Bull/Bear Control at Each Price Level
Broad bullish segments show zones of buyer absorption, while wide bearish slices reveal seller control.
This helps you interpret:
Where buyers supported the price
Where sellers defended a level
Which price levels matter for continuation or reversal
⚪ Use Delta Sectors for Contextual Direction
The delta panel shows where market pressure is accumulating, revealing whether the profile is dominated by:
Bullish flow (positive delta)
Bearish flow (negative delta)
Neutral flow (balanced or minimal delta)
█ Settings
Lookback – Number of bars scanned to build the profile.
Rows – Vertical resolution of price bins.
Source – Price source used to assign volume into rows.
Summary Sections – Number of vertical delta sectors.
Summary Width – Horizontal size of the delta bar panel.
Gap From Profile – Distance between profile and delta grid.
Show Delta Text – Toggle Δ% labels.

Smart RSI Composite [DotGain]Summary
Do you want to know the "True Direction" of the market without getting distracted by noise on a single timeframe?
The Smart RSI Composite simplifies market analysis by aggregating momentum data from 10 different timeframes (5m to 12M) into a single, easy-to-read Histogram.
Instead of looking at 10 separate charts or dots, this indicator calculates the Average RSI of the entire market structure. It answers one simple question: "Is the market predominantly Bullish or Bearish right now?"
⚙️ Core Components and Logic
This indicator works like a consensus mechanism for momentum:
Data Aggregation: It pulls RSI values from 10 customizable slots (Default: 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, 1D, 1W, 1M, 3M, 6M, 12M). All slots are enabled by default.
Smart Averaging: It calculates the arithmetic mean of all active timeframes. If the 5m chart is bearish but the Monthly chart is bullish, this indicator balances them out to show you the net result.
Histogram Visualization: The result is plotted as a histogram centered around the 50-line (Neutral).
🚦 How to Read the Histogram
The histogram bars indicate the aggregate strength of the trend based on the Average RSI:
🟩 DARK GREEN (Strong Bullish)
Condition: Average RSI > 60.
Meaning: The market is in a strong uptrend across most timeframes. Momentum is firmly on the buyers' side.
🟢 LIGHT GREEN (Weak Bullish)
Condition: Average RSI between 50 and 60.
Meaning: Slight bullish bias. The bulls are in control, but momentum is not yet extreme.
🔴 LIGHT RED (Weak Bearish)
Condition: Average RSI between 40 and 50.
Meaning: Slight bearish bias. The bears are taking control.
🟥 DARK RED (Strong Bearish)
Condition: Average RSI < 40.
Meaning: The market is in a strong downtrend across most timeframes. Momentum is firmly on the sellers' side.
Visual Elements
Center Line (50): This acts as the Zero-Line. Above 50 is bullish, below 50 is bearish.
Zone Lines (30/70): Dashed lines indicate the traditional Overbought/Oversold levels applied to the aggregate average.
Key Benefit
The Smart RSI Composite acts as a powerful Macro Trend Filter .
Pro Tip: Never go long if the Histogram is Dark Red, and avoid shorting when it is Dark Green. Use this tool to align your trades with the overall market momentum.
Have fun :)

Smart RSI MTF Matrix [DotGain]Summary
Are you tired of trading trend signals, only to miss the bigger picture because you are focused on a single timeframe?
The Smart RSI MTF Matrix is the ultimate "Cockpit View" for momentum traders. Unlike chart overlays that can sometimes clutter your price action, this indicator organizes RSI conditions across 10 different timeframes simultaneously into a clean, separate Heatmap pane.
It monitors everything from the 5-minute chart all the way up to the 12-Month view , giving you a complete X-ray vision of the market's momentum structure instantly.
⚙️ Core Components and Logic
The Smart RSI MTF Matrix relies on a sophisticated hierarchy to deliver clear, actionable context:
Multi-Timeframe Engine: The script runs 10 independent RSI calculations in the background, organized in rows from bottom (Short Term) to top (Long Term).
Classic RSI Thresholds:
Overbought (> 70): Indicates price may be extended to the upside.
Oversold (< 30): Indicates price may be extended to the downside.
Smart Visibility System (The "Secret Sauce"): Not all signals are equal. A 5-minute signal is "noise" compared to a Yearly signal. This indicator automatically applies Transparency to differentiate importance. The visibility increases by 10% for each higher timeframe slot (Row).
🚦 How to Read the Matrix
The indicator plots dots in 10 stacked rows. The position and opacity tell you the direction and significance:
🟥 RED DOTS (Overbought Condition)
Trigger: RSI is above 70 on that specific timeframe.
Meaning: Potential bearish reversal or pullback.
🟩 GREEN DOTS (Oversold Condition)
Trigger: RSI is below 30 on that specific timeframe.
Meaning: Potential bullish reversal or bounce.
⚪ GRAY DOTS (Neutral)
Trigger: RSI is between 30 and 70.
Meaning: No extreme momentum present.
👻 TRANSPARENCY (Signal Strength)
The visibility of the dot tells you exactly which Timeframe (Row) is triggered. The higher the row, the more solid the color:
Faint (10-30% Visibility): Rows 1-3 (5m, 15m, 1h). Used for scalping entries.
Medium (40-60% Visibility): Rows 4-6 (4h, 1D, 1W). Used for swing trading context.
Solid (70-100% Visibility): Rows 7-10 (1M, 3M, 6M, 12M). Used for identifying major macro cycles.
Visual Elements
Structure: Row 1 (Bottom) represents the 5-minute timeframe. Row 10 (Top) represents the 12-Month timeframe.
Vertical Alignment: If you see a vertical column of Red or Green dots, it indicates Multi-Timeframe Confluence —a highly probable reversal point.
Key Benefit
The goal of the Smart RSI MTF Matrix is to keep your main chart clean while providing maximum information. You can instantly see if a short-term pullback (Faint Green Dot) is happening within a long-term uptrend (Solid Gray/Red Dot), allowing for precision entries.
Have fun :)
