Liquidity Voids (FVG) [LuxAlgo]The Liquidity Voids (FVG) indicator is designed to detect liquidity voids/imbalances derived from the fair value gaps and highlight the distribution of the liquidity voids at specific price levels.
Fair value gaps and liquidity voids are both indicators of sell-side and buy-side imbalance in trading. The only difference is how they are represented in the trading chart. Liquidity voids occur when the price moves sharply in one direction forming long-range candles that have little trading activity, whilst a fair value is a gap in price.
🔶 USAGE
Liquidity can help you to determine where the price is likely to head next. In conjunction with higher timeframe market structure, and supply and demand, liquidity can give you insights into potential price movement. It's essential to practice using liquidity alongside trend analysis and supply and demand to read market conditions effectively.
The peculiar thing about liquidity voids is that they almost always fill up. And by “filling”, we mean the price returns to the origin of the gap. The reason for this is that during the gap, an imbalance is created in the asset that has to be made up for. The erasure of this gap is what we call the filling of the void. And while some voids waste no time in filling, some others take multiple periods before they get filled.
🔶 SETTINGS
The script takes into account user-defined parameters and detects the liquidity voids based on them, where detailed usage for each user-defined input parameter in indicator settings is provided with the related input's tooltip.
🔹 Liquidity Detection
Liquidity Voids Threshold: Act as a filter while detecting the Liquidity Voids. When set to 0 basically means no filtering is applied, increasing the value causes the script to check the width of the void compared to a fixed-length ATR value
Bullish: Color customization option for Bullish Liquidity Voids
Bearish: Color customization option for Bearish Liquidity Voids
Labels: Toggles the visibility of the Liquidity Void label
Filled Liquidity Voids: Toggles the visibility of the Filled Liquidity Voids
🔹 Display Options
Mode: Controls the lookback length of detection and visualization
# Bars: Lookback length customization, in case Mode is set to Present

Volume Spread Analysis Candle PatternsVolume Spread Analysis (VSA) is a methodology used in trading and investing to analyze the relationship between volume, price spread, and price movement in financial markets. It was developed by Richard Wyckoff, a prominent trader and market observer.
The core principle of VSA is that changes in volume can provide insights into the strength or weakness of price movements and indicate the intentions of market participants. By examining the interplay between volume and price, traders aim to identify the behavior of smart money (informed institutional investors) versus less-informed market participants.
Key concepts in Volume Spread Analysis include:
1. Volume: VSA places significant emphasis on volume as a leading indicator. It suggests that changes in volume precede price movements and can provide clues about the market's sentiment.
2. Spread: The spread refers to the price range between the high and low of a given trading period (e.g., a candlestick or bar). VSA considers the relationship between volume and spread to gauge the strength of price action.
3. Upthrust and Springs: These are VSA candle patterns that indicate potential market reversals. An upthrust occurs when prices briefly move above a resistance level but fail to sustain the upward momentum. Springs, on the other hand, happen when prices briefly dip below a support level but quickly rebound.
4. No Demand and No Supply: These patterns suggest a lack of interest or participation from buyers (no demand) or sellers (no supply) at a particular price level. These conditions may foreshadow a potential price reversal or consolidation.
5. Hidden Buying and Selling: Hidden buying occurs when prices close near the high of a bar, indicating the presence of buyers even though the market appears weak. Hidden selling is the opposite, where prices close near the low of a bar, suggesting the presence of sellers despite apparent strength.
By combining these VSA concepts with other technical analysis tools, traders seek to identify potential trading opportunities with favorable risk-reward ratios. VSA can be applied to various financial markets, including stocks, futures, forex, and cryptocurrencies.
It's important to note that while VSA provides a framework for analyzing volume and price, its interpretation and application require experience, skill, and subjective judgment. Traders often use VSA in conjunction with other technical indicators and chart patterns to make well-informed trading decisions.
Multi-Timeframe High Low (@JP7FX)Multi-Timeframe High Low Levels (@JP7FX)
This Price Action indicator displays high and low levels from a selected timeframe on your current chart.
These levels COULD represent areas of potential liquidity, providing key price points where traders can target entries, reversals, or continuation trades.
Key Features:
Display high and low levels from a selected timeframe.
Customize line width, colors for high and low levels, and label text color.
Enable or disable the display of high levels, low levels, and labels.
Receive alerts when the price takes out high or low levels.
How to use:
It is important to note that using this indicator on it's own is not advisable. Instead, it should be combined with other tools and analysis for a more comprehensive trading strategy.
Possibly look to use my MTF Supply and Demand Indicator to look for zones to trade from at these levels?
If the price breaks above a high level, you might consider entering a long position, with the expectation that the price will continue to rise. Conversely, if the price breaks below a low level, you may think about entering a short position, anticipating further downward movement.
On the other hand, you can also use high or low levels to look for reversal trades, as these areas can represent attractive liquidity zones.
By identifying these key price points, you could take advantage of potential market reversals and capitalise on new trading opportunities.
Always remember to use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools for the best results.
Additionally, you can enable alerts to notify you when the price takes out high or low levels, helping you stay informed about significant price movements.
This indicator could be a valuable tool for traders looking to identify key price points for potential trading opportunities.
As always with the markets, Trade Safe :)
Paradigm Trades_VPA Swing IndicatorThe indicator is designed to identify specific patterns in price and volume movements that can signal potential trading opportunities. It does this by calculating several conditions based on the current bar's price and volume movements.
The code defines five conditions: Narrow Spread Up Bar, Wide Spread Down Bar, No Demand Bar, No Selling Bar, and Churning. These conditions are then plotted on the chart using specific shapes and colors. The code also includes alert conditions for each of the signals, which can be used to generate alerts for traders when a particular pattern is identified.
The VPA Swing Indicator can be used as part of a swing trading strategy to identify potential buy or sell signals. For example, a Narrow Spread Up Bar may indicate bullish momentum, while a Wide Spread Down Bar may indicate bearish momentum. Traders can use these signals to make informed trading decisions and manage their risk accordingly.
Legend:
Spread Up Bar: This is a bullish bar with a small spread, indicating a lack of selling pressure and strong buying activity.
Wide Spread Down Bar: This is a bearish bar with a large spread, indicating strong selling pressure and weak buying activity.
No Demand Bar: This is a bearish bar with a small spread and low volume, indicating a lack of buying interest and the smart money selling off their positions.
No Selling Bar: This is a bullish bar with a small spread and low volume, indicating a lack of selling interest and the smart money buying up positions.
Churning: This is a sideways market with narrow spread bars and low volume, indicating the smart money is distributing shares to the retail traders.
Rich Robin Index, The Crypto Fear & Greed Index with RSI Trend The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a technical indicator based on price movements that is used to determine whether a particular asset is overbought or oversold. It measures the ratio of rising to falling prices over a certain period of time.
The Fear & Greed Index, on the other hand, is a composite index that tracks the sentiment of the crypto market. It is based on seven indicators, each of which measures a different aspect of market behavior. These indicators are: Safe Haven Demand, Stock Price Breadth, Market Momentum, Stock Price Strength, Put and Call Options, Junk Bond Demand, and Market Volatility.
The combination of the RSI and the Fear & Greed Index can provide valuable insights for crypto traders. The RSI can help identify overbought and oversold conditions, while the Fear & Greed Index can give an overall sense of the sentiment in the market. Together, they can provide a more complete picture of the market conditions. For example, if the RSI is indicating that an asset is overbought, but the Fear & Greed Index is showing that the market is still in a state of fear, it may be a good time to sell. On the other hand, if the RSI is indicating that an asset is oversold, but the Fear & Greed Index is showing that the market is in a state of greed, it may be a good time to buy.
Overall, the combination of the RSI and the Fear & Greed Index can provide useful information for traders to make more informed decisions, by giving a sense of the market conditions, and providing a way to identify overbought and oversold conditions.
4 main Stablecoin MarketCapThis indicator summarized 4 main stablecoin marketcap (USDT, USDC , BUSD, DAI).
It is given that most of the transactions of cryptocurrencies are traded by stablecoins, and USDT, USDC , BUSD and DAI shared 90%+ of the stablecoins market capacity. Therefore, by summarizing these 4 main stablecoins total market capacity, can reflect the overall demand power.
When the indicator goes up, it is expected that the overall market demand will increase.
When the indicator goes down, it is expected that the cryptocurrencies market might be in a recession.
This indicator could be more useful in a longer timeframe, day-trade or even shorter might not be the suitable timeframe.

Support/Resistant Zone (Simple)The concepts of trading level support and resistance are undoubtedly two of the most highly discussed attributes of technical analysis.
Support is a price level where a downtrend can be expected to pause due to a concentration of demand or buying interest. As the price of assets or securities drops, demand for the shares increases, thus forming the support line. Meanwhile, resistance zones arise due to selling interest when prices have increased.
There are many ways to identify support and resistance zones. This indicator is a simple method to identify them. Support/Resistant zones will draw basing on the size of the wick for candles, which are Pivots High/Low before.
Volume Price Trend with Divergence and Pivot Points The volume price trend indicator is used to determine the balance between a security’s demand and supply. The percentage change in the share price trend shows the relative supply or demand of a particular security, while volume indicates the force behind the trend. The VPT indicator is similar to the on-balance volume (OBV) indicator in that it measures cumulative volume and provides traders with information about a security’s money flow.
This is Volume Price Trend or VPT recalculated to be an Oscillator, a Divergence hunter was added, also Pivot Points and Alerts.
VPT is considered a "leading indicator" - in contrast to a "lagging indicator" just as Moving Averages it does not show a confirmation what already happened, but it shows what can happen in the future. For example: The chart is climbing while the VPT oscillator is slowly declining, gets weaker and weaker, maybe even prints bearish divergences? That means that a reversal might be occurring soon. Leading indicators are best paired with Stop and Resistance Lines, general Trendlines , Fib Retracements etc...Your chart is approaching a very important Resistance Trendline but the VPT shows a very positive signal? That means there is a high probability that the Resistance is going to be pushed though and becomes Support in the future.
What are those circles?
-These are Divergences. Red for Regular-Bearish. Orange for Hidden-Bearish. Green for Regular-Bullish. Aqua for Hidden-Bullish.
What are those triangles?
- These are Pivots . They show when the VPT oscillator might reverse, this is important to know because many times the price action follows this move.
Please keep in mind that this indicator is a tool and not a strategy, do not blindly trade signals, do your own research first! Use this indicator in conjunction with other indicators to get multiple confirmations.
Freedom of MovementFreedom of Movement Indicator
---------------------------------------------------------
In “Evidence-Based Support & Resistance” article, author Melvin Dickover introduces two new indicators to help traders note support and resistance areas by identifying supply and demand pools. Here you can find the support-resistance technical indicator called "Freedom of Movement".
The indicator takes into account price-volume behavior in order to detect points where movement of price is suddenly restricted, the possible supply and demand pools. These points are also marked by Defended Price Lines (DPLs).
DPLs are horizontal lines that run across the chart at levels defined by following conditions:
* Overlapping bars: If the indicator spike (i.e., indicator is above 2.0 or a custom value) corresponds to a price bar overlapping the previous one, the previous close can be used as the DPL value.
* Very large bars: If the indicator spike corresponds to a price bar of a large size, use its close price as the DPL value.
* Gapping bars: If the indicator spike corresponds to a price bar gapping from the previous bar, the DPL value will depend on the gap size. Small gaps can be ignored: the author suggests using the previous close as the DPL value. When the gap is big, the close of the latter bar is used instead.
* Clustering spikes: If the indicator spikes come in clusters, use the extreme close or open price of the bar corresponding to the last or next to last spike in cluster.
DPLs can be used as support and resistance levels. In order confirm and refine them, FoM (Freedom of Movement) is used along with the Relative Volume Indicator (RVI), which you can find here:
Clustering spikes provide the strongest DPLs while isolated spikes can be used to confirm and refine those provided by the RVI. Coincidence of spikes of the two indicator can be considered a sign of greater strength of the DPL.

Trading Psychology - Fear & Greed Index by DGTPsychology of a Market Cycle - Where are we in the cycle?
Before proceeding with the question "where", let's first have a quick look at "What is market psychology?"
Market psychology is the idea that the movements of a market reflect the emotional state of its participants. It is one of the main topics of behavioral economics - an interdisciplinary field that investigates the various factors that precede economic decisions. Many believe that emotions are the main driving force behind the shifts of financial markets and that the overall fluctuating investor sentiment is what creates the so-called psychological market cycles - which is also dynamic.
Stages of Investor Emotions:
* Optimism – A positive outlook encourages us about the future, leading us to buy stocks.
* Excitement – Having seen some of our initial ideas work, we begin considering what our market success could allow us to accomplish.
* Thrill – At this point we investors cannot believe our success and begin to comment on how smart we are.
* Euphoria – This marks the point of maximum financial risk. Having seen every decision result in quick, easy profits, we begin to ignore risk and expect every trade to become profitable.
* Anxiety – For the first time the market moves against us. Having never stared at unrealized losses, we tell ourselves we are long-term investors and that all our ideas will eventually work.
* Denial – When markets have not rebounded, yet we do not know how to respond, we begin denying either that we made poor choices or that things will not improve shortly.
* Fear – The market realities become confusing. We believe the stocks we own will never move in our favor.
* Desperation – Not knowing how to act, we grasp at any idea that will allow us to get back to breakeven.
* Panic – Having exhausted all ideas, we are at a loss for what to do next.
* Capitulation – Deciding our portfolio will never increase again, we sell all our stocks to avoid any future losses.
* Despondency – After exiting the markets we do not want to buy stocks ever again. This often marks the moment of greatest financial opportunity.
* Depression – Not knowing how we could be so foolish, we are left trying to understand our actions.
* Hope – Eventually we return to the realization that markets move in cycles, and we begin looking for our next opportunity.
* Relief – Having bought a stock that turned profitable, we renew our faith that there is a future in investing.
It's hard to predict with certainty where we exactly are in the market cycle, we can only make an educated guess as to the rough stage based on data available. And here comes the study "Trading Psychology - Fear & Greed Index"
Factors taken into account in this study include:
1-Price Momentum : Price Divergence/Convergence versus its Slow Moving Average
2-Strenght : Rate of Return (RoR) also called Return on Investment (ROI) is a performance measure used to evaluate the efficiency of an investment, net gain or loss of an investment over a specified time period, the rate of change in price movement over a period of time to help investors determine the strength
3-Money Flow : Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) is a technical analysis indicator used to measure Money Flow Volume over a set period of time. CMF can be used as a way to further quantify changes in buying and selling pressure and can help to anticipate future changes and therefore trading opportunities. CMF calculations is based on Accumulation/Distribution
4-Market Volatility : CBOE Volatility Index (VIX), the Volatility Index, or VIX, is a real-time market index that represents the market's expectation of 30-day forward-looking volatility. Derived from the price inputs of the S&P 500 index options, it provides a measure of market risk and investors' sentiments. It is also known by other names like "Fear Gauge" or "Fear Index." Investors, research analysts and portfolio managers look to VIX values as a way to measure market risk, fear and stress before they take investment decisions
5-Safe Haven Demand : in this study GOLD demand is assumed
What to look for :
*Fear and Greed Index as explained above,
*Divergencies
Tool tip of the label displayed provides details of references
Conclusion:
As investors, we always get caught up in the day to day price movements, and lose sight of the bigger picture. The biggest crashes happen not when investors are cautious and fearful, it's when they're euphoric and expecting financial instruments to continue going higher. So as we continue investing, don’t forget to stop and ask yourself, where in the chart do you think we are right now? The Market Psychology Cycle shines light on how emotions evolve, fear and greed index can come in handy, provided that it is not the only tool used to make investment decisions. It is easy to look back at market cycles and recognize how the overall psychology changed. Analyzing previous data makes it obvious what actions and decisions would have been the most profitable. However, it is much harder to understand how the market is changing as it goes - and even harder to predict what comes next. Many investors use technical analysis (TA) to attempt to anticipate where the market is likely to go. Investors are advised to keep tabs on fear for potential buying the dips opportunities and view periods of greed as a potential indicator that financial instruments might be overvalued.

RedK_AvgMoneyFlow Oscillator v1This is a compact & simple study that tracks the short-term average price change and the (average) volume associated with it, to generate a very clear signal when a change of buying/selling flow is detected. these buy/sell cycles can happen within a longer "demand / trend-up" or "supply / trend down" phases as we know.
this concept is a bit different from MFI or CMF. The math we use here is simpler, and more "relative" and short-term focused, deliberately.
how does it work
===============
once the average price change and the average volumes are calculated for the specified length, we then turn that into a +100/-100 oscillator format - using the stoch() function - which helps to generate a clearly identifiable unambiguous signal (crossing the zero line up or down) that help traders (mainly with entries)
-- the stoch() function also makes the oscillator "relative" to the specified period length, meaning, we can be in a uptrend (demand mode) and the MFO is showing flow "out" (negative) - that's specific to the short-term period - and that's exactly what i was trying to see
- the thinking here is that the best spot to go long is when the existing selling has been depleted and no more supply exists (during an uptrend), and vice verca.
- other stuff: i use WMA() throughout the script -- and we apply a smoothing for the final plot. keep smoothing to a minimum to avoid unnecessary lag in the signals
- the signal should be considered *after* a bar is fully closed.
Suggested Use
==============
i suggest you use this in combination with other indicators that can show the overall short-term and long-term bias (for example, i use the Ribbon here for that) - and take only entry signals in the same direction - a signal to go long, for example, would be when the bias / trend is up *and* the MFO crosses the zero line *going up* .. you may need to wait for that setup to show before you hit the trigger.
another benefit here, is that MFO will also detect strengths and weaknesses - when we see diversion with price movement. this shows couple of times in the example below
Please Note
============
i do not do short-term trading / scalping - those who do, i hope may find this useful - if you decide to use it and you do find it useful, please post feedback here for the common learning
Good luck!

Dynamic Support and ResistanceSupport is a price level where a downtrend can be expected to pause due to a concentration of demand or buying interest. As the price of assets or securities drops, demand for the shares increases, thus forming the support line.
Meanwhile, resistance zones arise due to selling interest when prices have increased.s their name implies, dynamic support and resistance levels change their level with each new price-tick.To draw dynamic support and resistance levels, traders usually use moving averages which are automatically drawn by your trading platform. The 200-day exponential moving average (EMA), 100-day EMA, and 20-30-40-50-day EMA are very popular dynamic support and resistance levels.also in some references Williams Fractal level used for dynamic support and resistance levels. and it also includes other support and resistance levels that are projected based on the pivot point calculation. All these levels help traders see where the price could experience support or resistance. Similarly, if the price moves through these levels it lets the trader know the price is trending in that direction.
VPT and Heiken Ashi Candles MTFThe volume price trend indicator is used to determine the balance between a security’s demand and supply. The percentage change in the share price trend shows the relative supply or demand of a particular security, while volume indicates the force behind the trend. The VPT indicator is similar to the on-balance volume (OBV) indicator in that it measures cumulative volume and provides traders with information about a security’s money flow
So we put the VPT and add HA candles with non repainting MTF , the crossing up or down of the VPT over candles create the signals
since VPT tend to overshoot you can smooth it with Leni..(just give the smoothing of the length this stupid name:) )

RSI + Elder Bull-Bear pressure RSI + Bull/Bear (Elder-Ray enhanced RSI)
What it is
An extended RSI that overlays Elder-Ray Bull/Bear Power on the same, zero-centered scale. You get classic RSI regime cues plus a live read of buy/sell pressure, with optional smoothing, bands, and right-edge value labels.
Key features
RSI with bands – default bands 30 / 50 / 70 (editable).
Bull/Bear Power (Elder) – ATR-normalized; optional EMA/SMA/RMA/HMA smoothing.
One-pane overlay – RSI and Bull/Bear share a common midline (RSI-50 ↔ panel 0).
Right-edge labels – always visible at the chart’s right margin with adjustable offsets.
How to read it
Cyan line = RSI (normalized)
Above the mid band = bullish regime; below = bearish regime.
Green = Bull Power, Red = Bear Power
Columns/lines above 0 show buy pressure; below 0 show sell pressure.
Smoothing reduces noise; zero-line remains your key reference.
Trade logic (simple playbook)
Entry
BUY (primary):
RSI crosses up through 50 (regime turns bullish), and
Bull (green) crosses up through 0 (buy pressure confirms).
SELL (primary):
RSI crosses down through 50, and
Bear (red) crosses down through 0 (sell pressure confirms).
Alternative momentum entries
Aggressive BUY: Bull (green) pushes above RSI-80 band (strong upside impulse).
Aggressive SELL: Bear (red) pushes below RSI-30 band (strong downside impulse).
Exits / trade management
In a long: consider exiting or tightening stops if Bear (red) dips below the 0 line (rising sell pressure) or RSI loses 50.
In a short: consider exiting or tightening if Bull (green) rises above 0 or RSI reclaims 50.
Tip: “0” on the panel is your pressure zero-line (maps to RSI-50). Most whipsaws happen near this line; smoothing (e.g., EMA 21) helps.
Defaults (on first load)
RSI bands: 30 / 50 / 70 with subtle fills.
Labels: tiny, pushed far right (large offsets).
Bull/Bear smoothing: EMA(21), smoothed line plot mode.
RSI plotted normalized so it overlaps the pressure lines cleanly.
Tighten or loosen the Bull/Bear thresholds (e.g., Bull ≥ +0.5 ATR, Bear ≤ −0.5 ATR) to demand stronger confirmation.
Settings that matter
Smoothing length/type – balances responsiveness vs. noise.
Power/RSI Gain – visual scaling only (doesn’t change logic).
Band placement – keep raw 30/50/80 or switch to “distance from 50” if you prefer symmetric spacing.
Label offsets – move values clear of the last bar/scale clutter.
Good practices
Combine with structure/ATR stops (e.g., 1–1.5× ATR, swing high/low).
In trends, hold while RSI stays above/below 50 and the opposite pressure line doesn’t dominate.
In ranges, favor signals occurring near the mid band and take profits at the opposite band.

Gold 15m: Trend + S/R + Liquidity Sweep (RR 1:2)This strategy is designed for short-term trading on XAUUSD (Gold) using the 15-minute timeframe. It combines trend direction, support/resistance pivots, liquidity sweep detection, and momentum confirmation to identify high-probability reversal setups in line with the dominant market trend.
⚙️ Core Logic:
Trend Filter (EMA 200):
The strategy only takes long positions when price is above the 200 EMA and short positions when price is below it.
Support/Resistance via Pivots:
Dynamic swing highs and lows are identified using pivot points. These act as local supply and demand levels where liquidity is likely to accumulate.
Liquidity Sweep Detection:
A bullish liquidity sweep occurs when price briefly breaks below the last pivot low (grabbing liquidity) and then closes back above it.
A bearish sweep occurs when price breaks above the last pivot high and then closes back below.
Momentum & Candle Strength:
The strategy filters signals based on candle range and body size to ensure entries occur during strong price reactions, not weak retracements.
Risk Management (1:2 RR):
Stop-loss is placed slightly beyond the last pivot level using ATR-based buffers, and take-profit is set at 2× the risk distance, maintaining a reward-to-risk ratio of 1:2.
💼 Trade Logic Summary:
Long Entry:
After a bullish liquidity sweep & reclaim, momentum confirmation, and trend alignment (above EMA 200).
Short Entry:
After a bearish sweep & reclaim, momentum confirmation, and trend alignment (below EMA 200).
Exit:
Automated via ATR-based Stop Loss and Take Profit targets.
📊 Customization Options:
Adjustable EMA length, pivot settings, ATR multipliers, and RR ratio.
Option to enable/disable trend filter.
Toggle display of S/R zones on chart.
🧠 Best Use:
Works best during London and New York sessions when Gold shows strong momentum.
Can be adapted for forex pairs and indices by tuning ATR and pivot parameters.
INDIAN INTRADAY BEASTThe Indian Intraday Beast is a precision-built intraday strategy optimized for the 15-minute timeframe.

Best Time Slots — Auto-Adapt (v6, TF-safe) + Range AlertsTime & binning
Auto-adapt to timeframe
Makes all time windows scale to your chart’s bar size (so it “just works” on 1m, 15m, 4H, Daily).
• On = recommended. • Off = fixed default lengths.
Minimum Bin (minutes)
The size of each daily time slot we track (e.g., 5-min bins). The script uses the larger of this and your bar size.
• Higher = fewer, broader slots; smoother stats. • Lower = more, narrower slots; needs more history.
• Try: 5–15 on intraday, 60–240 on higher TFs.
Lookback windows (used when Auto-adapt = ON)
Target ER Window (minutes)
How far back we look to judge Efficiency Ratio (how “straight” the move was).
• Higher = stricter/smoother; fewer bars qualify as “movement”. • Lower = more sensitive.
• Try: 60–120 min intraday; 240–600 min for higher TFs.
Target ATR Window (minutes)
How far back we compute ATR (typical range).
• Higher = steadier ATR baseline. • Lower = reacts faster.
• Try: 30–120 min intraday; 240–600 min higher TFs.
Target Normalization Window (minutes)
How far back for the average ATR (the baseline we compare to).
• Higher = stricter “above average range” check. • Lower = easier to pass.
• Try: ~500–1500 min.
What counts as “movement”
ER Threshold (0–1)
Minimum efficiency a bar must have to count as movement.
• Higher = only very “clean, one-direction” bars count. • Lower = more bars count.
• Try: 0.55–0.65. (0.60 = balanced.)
ATR Floor vs SMA(ATR)
Requires range to be at least this many × average ATR.
• Higher (e.g., 1.2) = demand bigger-than-usual ranges. • Lower (e.g., 0.9) = allow smaller ranges.
• Try: 1.0 (above average).
How history is averaged
Recent Days Weight (per-day decay)
Gives more weight to recent days. Example: 0.97 ≈ each day old counts ~3% less.
• Higher (0.99) = slower fade (older days matter more). • Lower (0.95) = faster fade.
• Try: 0.97–0.99.
Laplace Prior Seen / Laplace Prior Hit
“Starter counts” so early stats aren’t crazy when you have little data.
• Higher priors = probabilities start closer to average; need more real data to move.
• Try: Seen=3, Hit=1 (defaults).
Min Samples (effective)
Don’t highlight a slot unless it has at least this many effective samples (after decay + priors).
• Higher = safer, but fewer highlights early.
• Try: 3–10.
When to highlight on the chart
Min Probability to Highlight
We shade/mark bars only if their slot’s historical movement probability is ≥ this.
• Higher = pickier, fewer highlights. • Lower = more highlights.
• Try: 0.45–0.60.
Show Markers on Good Bins
Draws a small square on bars that fall in a “good” slot (in addition to the soft background).
Limit to market hours (optional)
Restrict to Session + Session
Only learn/score inside this time window (e.g., “0930-1600”). Uses the chart/exchange timezone.
• Turn on if you only care about RTH.
Range (chop) alerts
Range START if ER ≤
Triggers range when efficiency drops below this level (price starts zig-zagging).
• Higher = easier to call “range”. • Lower = stricter.
Range START if ATR ≤ this × SMA(ATR)
Also triggers range when ATR shrinks below this fraction of its average (volatility contraction).
• Higher (e.g., 1.0) = stricter (must be at/under average). • Lower (e.g., 0.9) = easier to call range.
Alerts on bar close
If ON, alerts fire once per bar close (cleaner). If OFF, they can trigger intrabar (faster, noisier).
Quick “what happens if I change X?”
Want more highlighted times? ↓ Min Probability, ↓ ER Threshold, or ↓ ATR Floor (e.g., 0.9).
Want stricter highlights? ↑ Min Probability, ↑ ER Threshold, or ↑ ATR Floor (e.g., 1.2).
Want recent days to matter more? ↑ Recent Days Weight toward 0.99.
On 4H/Daily, widen Minimum Bin (e.g., 60–240) and maybe lower Min Probability a bit.

FVG MagicFVG Magic — Fair Value Gaps with Smart Mitigation, Inversion & Auto-Clean-up
FVG Magic finds every tradable Fair Value Gap (FVG), shows who powered it, and then manages each gap intelligently as price interacts with it—so your chart stays actionable and clean.
Attribution
This tool is inspired by the idea popularized in “Volumatic Fair Value Gaps ” by BigBeluga (licensed CC BY-NC-SA 4.0). Credit to BigBeluga for advancing FVG visualization in the community.
Important: This is a from-scratch implementation—no code was copied from the original. I expanded the concept substantially with a different detection stack, a gap state machine (ACTIVE → 50% SQ → MITIGATED → INVERSED), auto-clean up rules, lookback/nearest-per-side pruning, zoom-proof volume meters, and timeframe auto-tuning for 15m/H1/H4.
What makes this version more accurate
Full-coverage detection (no “missed” gaps)
Default ICT-minimal rule (Bullish: low > high , Bearish: high < low ) catches all valid 3-candle FVGs.
Optional Strict filter (stricter structure checks) for traders who prefer only “clean” gaps.
Optional size percentile filter—off by default so nothing is hidden unless you choose to filter.
Correct handling of confirmations (wick vs close)
Mitigation Source is user-selectable: high/low (wick-based) or close (strict).
This avoids false “misses” when you expect wick confirmations (50% or full fill) but your logic required closes.
State-aware labelling to prevent misleading data
The Bull%/Bear% meter is shown only while a gap is ACTIVE.
As soon as a gap is 50% SQ, MITIGATED, or INVERSED, the meter is hidden and replaced with a clear tag—so you never read stale participation stats.
Robust zoom behaviour
The meter uses a fixed bar-width (not pixels), so it stays proportional and readable at any zoom level.
Deterministic lifecycle (no stale boxes)
Remove on 50% SQ (instant or delayed).
Inversion window after first entry: if price enters but doesn’t invert within N bars, the box auto-removes once fully filled.
Inversion clean up: after a confirmed flip, keep for N bars (context) then delete (or 0 = immediate).
Result: charts auto-maintain themselves and never “lie” about relevance.
Clarity near current price
Nearest-per-side (keep N closest bullish & bearish gaps by distance to the midpoint) focuses attention where it matters without altering detection accuracy.
Lookback (bars) ensures reproducible behaviour across accounts with different data history.
Timeframe-aware defaults
Sensible auto-tuning for 15m / H1 / H4 (right-extension length, meter width, inversion windows, clean up bars) to reduce setup friction and improve consistency.
What it does (under the hood)
Detects FVGs using ICT-minimal (default) or a stricter rule.
Samples volume from a 10× lower timeframe to split participation into Bull % / Bear % (sum = 100%).
Manages each gap through a state machine:
ACTIVE → 50% SQ (midline) → MITIGATED (full) → INVERSED (SR flip after fill).
Auto-clean up keeps only relevant levels, per your rules.
Dashboard (top-right) displays counts by side and the active state tags.
How to use it
First run (show everything)
Use Strict FVG Filter: OFF
Enable Size Filter (percentile): OFF
Mitigation Source: high/low (wick-based) or close (stricter), as you prefer.
Remove on 50% SQ: ON, Delay: 0
Read the context
While ACTIVE, use the Bull%/Bear% meter to gauge demand/supply behind the impulse that created the gap.
Confluence with your HTF structure, sessions, VWAP, OB/FVG, RSI/MACD, etc.
Trade interactions
50% SQ: often the highest-quality interaction; if removal is ON, the box clears = “job done.”
Full mitigation then rejection through the other side → tag changes to INVERSED (acts like SR). Keep for N bars, then auto-remove.
Keep the chart tidy (optional)
If too busy, enable Size Filter or set Nearest per side to 2–4.
Use Lookback (bars) to make behaviour consistent across symbols and histories.
Inputs (key ones)
Use Strict FVG Filter: OFF(default)/ON
Enable Size Filter (percentile): OFF(default)/ON + threshold
Mitigation Source: high/low or close
Remove on 50% SQ + Delay
Inversion window after entry (bars)
Remove inversed after (bars)
Lookback (bars), Nearest per side (N)
Right Extension Bars, Max FVGs, Meter width (bars)
Colours: Bullish, Bearish, Inversed fill
Suggested defaults (per TF)
15m: Extension 50, Max 12, Inversion window 8, Clean up 8, Meter width 20
H1: Extension 25, Max 10, Inversion window 6, Clean up 6, Meter width 15
H4: Extension 15, Max 8, Inversion window 5, Clean up 5, Meter width 10
Notes & edge cases
If a wick hits 50% or the far edge but state doesn’t change, you’re likely on close mode—switch to high/low for wick-based behaviour.
If a gap disappears, it likely met a clean up condition (50% removal, inversion window, inversion clean up, nearest-per-side, lookback, or max-cap).
Meters are hidden after ACTIVE to avoid stale percentages.
VolumeAnlaysis### Volume Analysis (VA) Indicator
**Overview**
The Volume Analysis (VA) indicator is a dynamic overlay tool designed for traders seeking to identify high-volume breakouts, retests, and multi-timeframe volume-driven price cycles. By combining volume spikes with price action and support/resistance boxes, it highlights potential trend continuations, reversals, and cycle shifts. Ideal for intraday and swing trading on stocks, forex, or crypto, it uses a Fibonacci-inspired 1.618 multiplier to detect significant volume surges, then maps them to visual boxes and key levels for actionable insights.
This indicator draws from volume profile concepts but focuses on **breakout confirmation** and **cycle momentum**, helping you spot when "smart money" volume aligns with price extremes. It's particularly useful in volatile markets where volume precedes price moves.
**How It Works**
1. **Volume Break Detection**:
- Identifies a "Volume Break" when the current bar's volume exceeds 1.618x the highest volume from the prior 5 bars. This signals unusual activity, often preceding breakouts.
- A "Volume Retest" triggers exactly 3 bars after a break if volume has been falling steadily over those 3 bars—indicating a pullback for re-accumulation/distribution.
2. **Visual Annotations**:
- **Labels**: Green/red/yellow labels mark Volume Breaks and Retests, positioned above/below the bar based on candle direction for clarity.
- **Demand/Supply Boxes**:
- Blue semi-transparent boxes form around Retest bars, extending rightward to act as dynamic support/resistance.
- Green (bullish) or red (bearish) boxes draw from Volume Breaks, based on the original candle's open/close, highlighting potential zones for continuation.
- Limited to 5 boxes max to avoid chart clutter; older boxes fade as new ones form.
3. **Box Interaction Signals**:
- When price enters a box:
- **Reversal Hints**: Maroon (bearish rejection) or lime (bullish rejection) labels on closes against the trend with opening price momentum.
- **Breakout Arrows**: Up/down arrows on crossovers/crossunders of box tops/bottoms from Retest boxes.
- Scans all active boxes for interactions, prioritizing recent volume events.
4. **Multi-Timeframe Volume Cycles**:
- Aggregates the "Volume Break Max" level (a proxy for key price extremes tied to volume spikes) across timeframes: 1min, 5min, 10min, 30min, and 65min (using `request.security`).
- Computes **MaxVolBreak** (highest extreme) and **MinVolBreak** (lowest extreme) for trend-following levels.
- Tracks **Percent Volume Greater/Less Than Close**: Sums volumes from TFs where price is below/above these levels, creating a momentum ratio.
- **CrossClose**: Plots the prior close where this ratio crosses (gray line), signaling cycle shifts—bullish below MinVolBreak, bearish above MaxVolBreak.
- **Fills**: Red fill above CrossClose/MaxVolBreak (bearish cycle); green below CrossClose/MinVolBreak (bullish cycle).
5. **Plots**:
- Black lines for MaxVolBreak (⏫) and MinVolBreak (⏬).
- Gray 🔄 for CrossClose.
- Colors dynamically adjust (green/red) based on close relative to levels.
**Key Features**
- **Trend vs. Reversal Modes**: Toggle alerts for trend-following breaks (crosses of Max/MinVolBreak) or reversal signals (crosses of CrossClose).
- **Multi-TF Fusion**: Optionally include the chart's native timeframe in Max/Min calculations for finer tuning.
- **Box Management**: Auto-prunes to 5 boxes; focuses on retest/break alignments for "inside bar" logic.
- **Momentum Filters**: Uses rising/falling opens and crossovers for label precision, reducing noise.
- **Customizable**: Simple inputs for alert visibility and timeframe inclusion.
**Settings**
| Input | Default | Description |
|-------|---------|-------------|
| Show Volume Reversal Breaks | False | Enables alerts/labels for CrossClose crosses (cycle reversals). |
| Show Trend Following Breaks | True | Enables alerts for Max/MinVolBreak crosses (trend signals). |
| Use Current Time | False | Includes chart's native TF in multi-TF Max/Min calculations. |
**Alerts**
- **Reversal Alerts** (if enabled): "Volume Reverse Bullish/Bearish Break of " on close crosses of CrossClose.
- **Trend Alerts** (if enabled): "Trend Volume Bullish/Bearish Signal" on close crosses of Max/MinVolBreak; plus notes if prior low/high aligns with levels.
- All alerts include ticker and level value for easy scanning. Use `alert.freq_once_per_bar` to avoid spam.
**Trading Ideas**
- **Bullish Entry**: Green box formation + price holding MinVolBreak + upward arrow on retest box. Target next resistance.
- **Bearish Entry**: Red box + close above MaxVolBreak + red fill activation. Stop below recent low.
- **Cycle Trading**: Watch CrossClose crosses for regime shifts—fade extremes in overextended cycles.
- **Best Timeframes**: 5-30min for intraday; combine with daily for swings. Works best on liquid assets with reliable volume data.
**Limitations & Notes**
- Relies on accurate volume data (e.g., stocks/forex); less effective on low-volume or synthetic instruments.
- Boxes extend rightward but don't auto-delete—monitor for clutter on long histories (max_bars_back=500).
- Some logic (e.g., exact 3-bar retest) is rigid; backtest for your market.

JOPA Channel (Dual-Volumed) v1 [JopAlgo]JOPA Channel (Dual-Volumed) v1
Short title: JOPAV1 • License: MPL-2.0 • Provider: JopAlgo
We have developed our own, first channel-based trading indicator and we’re making it available to all traders. The goal was a channel that breathes with the tape—built on a volume-weighted backbone—so the outcome stays lively instead of static. That led to the JOPA Channel.
All important features (at a glance)
In one line: A Rolling-VWAP channel whose width adapts with two volumes (RVOL + dollar-flow), adds order-flow asymmetry (OBV tilt) and regime awareness (Efficiency Ratio), and frames risk with outer containment bands from residual extremes—so you see fair value, momentum, and exhaustion in one view.
Feature list
Rolling VWAP centerline: Tracks where volume traded (fair value).
Dual-volume width: Bands expand/contract with relative volume and value traded (price×volume).
OBV tilt: Upper/lower widths skew toward the side actually pushing.
Regime adapter (ER): Tighter in trend, wider in chop—automatically.
Outer containment rails: Residual-extreme ceilings/floors, smoothed + margin.
20% / 80% guides: 20% light blue (discount), 80% light red (premium).
Squeeze dots (optional): Orange circles below candles during compression.
Non-repainting: Uses rolling sums and past-only math; no lookahead.
Default visual in this release
Containment rails + fill: ON (stepline, medium).
Inner Value rails + fill: Rails OFF (stepline, thin), fill ON (drawn only if rails are shown).
20% & 80% guides: ON (dashed, thin; 20% light blue, 80% light red).
Squeeze dots: OFF by default (orange circles when enabled).
What you see on the chart
RVWAP (centerline): Your compass for fair value.
Inner Value Bands (optional): Tight rails for breakouts and pullback timing.
Outer Containment Bands (default ON): High-confidence ceilings/floors for targets and fades.
20% / 80% guides: Quick read of “where in the channel” price is sitting.
Squeeze dots (optional): Volatility compression heads-up (no text labels).
Non-repainting note: The indicator does not revise closed bars. Forecast-Lock uses linear regression to extrapolate 1–3 bars ahead without using future data.
How to use it
Core reads (works on any timeframe)
Bias: Above a rising RVWAP → long bias; below a falling RVWAP → short bias.
Breakouts (momentum): Close beyond an Inner Value rail with RVOL ≥ threshold (alert provided).
Reversions (fades): Tag Outer Containment, stall, then close back inside → expect mean reversion toward RVWAP.
20/80 timing:
At/above 80% (light red) → premium/exhaustion risk; trim longs or consider fades if RVOL cools.
At/below 20% (light blue) → discount/exhaustion risk; trim shorts or consider longs if RVOL cools.
Squeeze clusters: When dots bunch up, expect a range break; use the Breakout alert as confirmation.
Playbooks by trading style
Day Trading (1–5m)
Setup: Keep the chart clean (Containment ON, Value rails OFF). Toggle Inner Value ON when hunting a breakout or timing a pullback.
Pullback Long: Dip to RVWAP / Lower Value with sub-threshold RVOL, then a close back above RVWAP → long.
Stop: Just beyond Lower Containment or the pullback swing.
Targets (1:1:1): ⅓ at RVWAP, ⅓ at Upper Value, ⅓ trail toward Upper Containment.
Breakout Long: After a squeeze cluster, take the Breakout Long alert (close > Upper Value, RVOL ≥ min). If no retest, demand the next bar holds outside.
Range Fade: Only when RVWAP is flat and dots cluster; short Upper Containment → RVWAP (mirror for longs at the lower rail).
Intraday (15m–1H)
HTF compass: Take bias from 4H.
Pullback Long: “Touch & reclaim” of RVWAP while RVOL cools; enter on the reclaim close or break of that candle’s high.
Breakout: Run Inner Value ON; act on Breakout alerts (RVOL gate ≈ 1.10–1.15 typical).
Avoid low-probability fades against the 4H slope unless RVWAP is flat.
Swing (4H–1D)
Continuation: In uptrends, buy pullbacks to RVWAP / Lower Value with sub-threshold RVOL; scale at Upper Containment.
Adds: Post-squeeze Breakout Long adds; trail on RVWAP or Lower Value.
Fades: Prefer when RVWAP flattens and price oscillates between containments.
Position (1D+)
Framework: Daily RVWAP slope + position within containment.
Add rule: Each reclaim of RVWAP after a dip is an add; trim into Upper Containment or near 80% light red.
Sizing: Containment distance is larger—size down and trail on RVWAP.

Containment rails: ON (stepline, medium).
20% / 80% guides: ON — 20% light blue, 80% light red, dashed, thin.
Squeeze dots: OFF by default (orange circles below candles when enabled).
Practical templates (copy/paste into a plan)
Momentum Breakout
Context: Squeeze cluster near RVWAP; Inner Value ON.
Trigger: Breakout Long (close > Upper Value & RVOL ≥ min).
Stop: Below Lower Value (tight) or below RVWAP (safer).
Targets (1:1:1): ⅓ Value → ⅓ Containment → ⅓ trail on RVWAP.
Pullback Continuation
Context: Uptrend; dip to RVWAP / Lower Value with cooling RVOL.
Trigger: Close back above RVWAP or break of reclaim candle’s high.
Stop: Just outside Lower Containment or pullback swing.
Targets: RVWAP → Upper Value → Upper Containment.
Containment Reversion (range)
Context: RVWAP flat; repeated containment tags.
Trigger: Stall at containment, then close back inside.
Stop: A step beyond that containment.
Target: RVWAP; runner only if RVOL stays muted.
Alerts included
DVWAP Breakout Long / Short (Value Bands)
Top Zone / Bottom Zone (20% / 80% guides)
Tip: On lower TFs, act on Breakout alerts with higher-TF bias (e.g., trade 5–15m in the direction of 1H/4H RVWAP slope/position).
Best practices
Let RVWAP be the compass; if unsure, wait until price picks a side.
Respect RVOL; low-RVOL breaks are prone to fail.
Use guides for timing, not certainty. Pair 20/80 zones with flow context.
Start with defaults; change one knob at a time.
Common pitfalls
Fading every containment touch → only fade when RVWAP is flat or RVOL cools.
Over-tuning inputs → the defaults are robust; small tweaks go a long way.
Fighting the higher timeframe on low TFs → expensive habit.
