Momentum + Volume Percentile
This advanced momentum indicator combines smoothed momentum analysis with percentile-based volume filtering to identify high-quality trading opportunities backed by significant market participation.
How It Works:
The indicator calculates momentum (rate of change) over a customizable period and applies multiple smoothing techniques to reduce noise. It then filters price action by highlighting only periods where volume exceeds a specified percentile threshold.
The algorithm:
Calculates raw momentum based on price changes over the specified period
Applies customizable smoothing (SMA, EMA, WMA, or HMA) to the momentum values
Computes a moving average of the smoothed momentum as a trend reference
Analyzes volume over a lookback period to establish percentile rankings
Highlights candles where volume exceeds the percentile threshold with color-coded backgrounds
Distinguishes between bullish (green) and bearish (red) high-volume events

Pso VP 2.0This indicator provides an advanced volume analysis tool that visualizes trading activity across different price levels and automatically identifies key support and resistance zones.
How It Works:
The Volume Profile analyzes historical price and volume data within a specified lookback period, distributing volume across horizontal price levels. Unlike traditional volume indicators that show volume over time, this tool displays volume at price, revealing where the most significant trading activity has occurred.
The algorithm:
Divides the price range into customizable horizontal bars (bins)
Calculates and accumulates volume for each price level
Identifies high-volume nodes that often act as support or resistance levels
Uses percentile filtering to highlight the most significant trading areas
Key Features:
Automatic S/R Detection: Uses volume percentile filtering to identify the most significant price levels
Dynamic Support/Resistance Lines: Automatically draws horizontal black lines at high-volume areas that typically act as price magnets or barriers
Customizable Parameters: Full control over lookback period, number of price bars, percentile thresholds, profile width, opacity, and line projections

GRAM SCALP_PDH/PDL/P.POC/P.VAL/P.VAH_9/21EMA)This is a simple scalping strategy for futures markets (e.g., MNQ/ES), designed for prop firm challenges that require consistency and good R/R. It focuses on intraday trades during NY session (9:30 ET onward), using bias, EMAs, and key levels from prior Globex session (18:00–17:00 ET).
Goal: Set-and-forget limit orders in bias direction, aiming for small, consistent wins.
Daily Bias (Trend Detection):
Based on the first 15-min candle (9:30–9:45 ET).
If close > open (green): LONG ONLY bias – background shades green, label says "LONG ONLY".
If close < open (red): SHORT ONLY bias – background shades red, label says "SHORT ONLY".
Trade only in bias direction to avoid counter-trend risks. No bias? Sit out.
EMAs for Entries/Confirmation:
9 EMA (orange): Fast line for short-term trend/pullbacks.
21 EMA (purple): Slower line for overall direction.
Entry idea: Wait for price to pull back to 9/21 EMA in bias direction, then enter on bounce/break (e.g., long above EMA on green bias).
Use as dynamic support/resistance – don't trade if price is far from EMAs.
Key Levels from Prior Session (Globex 18:00–17:00 ET):
PDH (Previous Day High): Gray line – potential resistance/target for longs.
PDL (Previous Day Low): Gray line – potential support/target for shorts.
Volume Profile (VP):
POC (Point of Control, orange): Highest volume price – strong magnet; price often returns here.
VAH (Value Area High, fuchsia circles): Top of 70% volume range – resistance; break above = bullish.
VAL (Value Area Low, fuchsia circles): Bottom of 70% volume range – support; break below = bearish.
Use levels for entries (e.g., bounce off VAL for long), stops (behind level), or targets (e.g., aim for POC/VAH).
Trading Rules:
Session: NY open (9:30 ET) to close (16:00 ET). Avoid news/high volatility.
Bias Only: After 9:45 ET, check label/color – trade longs on green, shorts on red.
Entries: Set limit orders at key levels/EMAs in bias direction. E.g., long bias: Buy limit at VAL or EMA pullback.
Risk Management:
Stop Loss: Behind nearest level (e.g., below VAL for long) or fixed 10-20 ticks.
Take Profit: 1:2 risk-reward or at next level (e.g., PDH/POC).
Position Size: 1-2% risk per trade; max 5 trades/day for prop rules.
Exits: Trail with EMAs or exit at EOD. No overnight holds.
Avoid: Choppy markets, gaps through levels, or no clear bias.
Why It Works:
Bias filters bad trades; EMAs confirm momentum; VP/PDH/PDL provide high-probability zones based on where volume/price settled overnight.
Simple, mechanical – ideal for prop challenges (rules on drawdown, consistency).
Backtest on 2-min charts; aim for 60%+ win rate on small scalps (5-20 ticks).
Customize in indicator settings (e.g., VP bin size, line colors). Test on demo before live. Not financial advice – trade at own risk.10 web pages

BTC Future CME Cross-Market DetectorProject Spec: BTC CME Cross-Market Detector
1. Project Overview
Indicator Name
CME Cross-Market Detector
Objective
To identify high-probability trade setups by detecting and confirming "smart money" activity across two distinct market venues simultaneously: a primary crypto exchange (e.g., Bybit, Binance) and the institutional CME futures market.
Core Philosophy
Price movements are often preceded by the positioning of large, institutional players ("smart money"). While their activity can be seen on any single exchange, the signal becomes exceptionally reliable when the same footprint appears at the same time in both the broader crypto derivatives market and the highly regulated institutional futures market. This dual-market confirmation acts as a powerful noise filter, isolating signals that have a higher probability of follow-through.
2. Key Concepts & Signal Logic
The indicator's entire foundation rests on confirming that specific conditions are met on two datasets at the same time: (1) The user's current chart (e.g., BYBIT:BTCUSDT) and (2) The CME Bitcoin Futures chart (CME:BTC1!).
Smart Volume Analysis
To gauge buying vs. selling pressure, the total volume of a single candle is algorithmically split. This is not a perfect science but an effective estimation based on the candle's structure.
Buying Pressure is considered proportional to the distance the price closed from the low. Buying Pressure ≈ Total Volume × ((Close - Low) / (High - Low))
Selling Pressure is considered proportional to the distance the price closed from the high. Selling Pressure ≈ Total Volume × ((High - Close) / (High - Low))
Signal Trigger Conditions
For a potential signal to be identified on each market independently, two conditions must be met:
Volume Spike: The volume of the current candle must be significantly higher than the recent average volume (e.g., >150% of the 20-period moving average). This shows a sudden, high level of interest.
Pressure Imbalance: The estimated buying pressure must overwhelm the selling pressure by a certain factor (e.g., 3x), or vice versa for a sell signal. This indicates a clear directional intent.
The Final Confirmed Signal
A signal is only considered valid and plotted on the chart when the Signal Trigger Conditions (both Volume Spike and Pressure Imbalance) are met on both the primary chart and the CME chart on the very same candle.
3. Signal Strength Calculation
The percentage shown on the chart is a Signal Strength Score (0-100%), which rates the quality and conviction of the confirmed signal.
The score is calculated as follows:
Base Score Calculation (0-100 points): A base score is calculated for each market (primary and CME) by combining two factors:
Volume Component (0-50 pts): Measures the intensity of the volume spike. A 300% volume spike will score higher than a 150% spike.
Imbalance Component (0-50 pts): Measures the intensity of the buy/sell pressure ratio. A 5x imbalance will score higher than a 3x imbalance.
Advanced Modifiers (Bonus Points): The base score is then enhanced with bonus points for favorable conditions:
Trend Alignment (+10 pts): A buy signal that occurs during a clear uptrend receives extra points.
Candle Structure (+10 pts): A buy signal on a candle with a long lower wick (indicating rejection of lower prices) receives extra points.
Final Averaged Score: The final percentage you see is the average of the two individual strength scores calculated for the primary exchange and the CME market.
4. Visualization
Energy Waves: Signals are displayed as circles. Green for Buy Signals (below the candle) and Red for Sell Signals (above the candle).
Dynamic Sizing: The size of the circle directly reflects the Signal Strength Score, categorized into four distinct levels (e.g., 10%+, 40%+, 60%+, and 80%+) for at-a-glance interpretation.
Percentage Labels: Each signal is plotted with its precise, final strength score for clear analysis.
5. Summary: Steps to Replicate the Logic
To recreate this indicator, follow these high-level steps for each candle on the chart:
Gather Data: Fetch the Open, High, Low, Close, and Volume data for the primary chart asset AND for the corresponding CME Bitcoin Futures symbol (CME:BTC1!).
Calculate Buy/Sell Pressure: For both datasets, use the "Smart Volume Analysis" formula to estimate the buying and selling pressure for the current candle.
Check for Volume Spikes: For both datasets, calculate a simple moving average of the volume. Check if the current candle's volume exceeds this average by a set threshold (e.g., 150%).
Check for Pressure Imbalance: For both datasets, check if the buying pressure is greater than the selling pressure by a set multiplier (e.g., 3.0), or vice versa.
Confirm the Signal: A final signal is only valid if the conditions from both Step 3 and Step 4 are true for both datasets on the same candle.
Calculate Strength: If a signal is confirmed, compute a strength score (0-100) for each dataset based on the intensity of the volume spike and pressure imbalance. Add bonus points for confluence factors like trend alignment.
Finalize and Plot: Average the two strength scores from each market. Plot a colored, sized circle on the chart that visually represents this final averaged score, and display the score as a text label.
Last but not least, the idea of the indicator is inspired by 52SIGNAL
Distância Preço vs VWAPIt calculates the distance from the price to the VWAP. The idea is to make it easier to observe when the price might return to the VWAP.

Volume Pulse [ziksfx]Volume Pulse is a clean volume indicator designed to make it easier to read meaningful changes in activity without cluttering your chart. It enhances the standard volume view by supporting both classic volume and dollar volume , highlighting spikes and extreme bars and adding a compact label on the latest bar so you always see the current volume value at a glance. The script is intended to be used in a separate volume pane.
How it works
– Supports two modes: standard volume or dollar volume (close × volume).
– Colors volume bars by candle direction (up/down). Optionally, it can:
• highlight volume spikes above a moving average;
• mark the highest-volume bar over a user-defined lookback period.
– Plots a simple moving average of volume so you can quickly see when activity is above or below typical levels.
– On the latest bar, shows a small label with the current volume value, automatically abbreviated (K / M / B) and optionally prefixed with “$” in dollar-volume mode.
Inputs & customization
– Volume type: choose between standard volume and dollar volume.
– Volume MA length: controls how sensitive the moving average is to recent changes in activity.
– Spike highlighting: optional, turns on/off coloring for bars where volume exceeds the moving average.
– Highest-volume bar lookback: sets the period for detecting the highest-volume bar.
– Label position: choose whether the last-bar label appears on the left or right side of the bar, and optionally shift it slightly above the bar for better readability.
Use cases
Use Volume Pulse to:
– Spot sudden spikes in volume and compare them to the recent average.
– Identify sessions or candles with unusually high activity relative to a chosen TF.
– Visually study how volume behaves around price moves, breakouts or potential fakeouts to better understand their strength or weakness.
– Keep track of the latest bar’s volume instantly, without having to read the raw scale values.
This indicator works on any symbol that has volume data (stocks, futures, crypto and more), but volume quality may vary between markets and instruments. It is intended as an analytical and educational tool only: it does not constitute financial advice and does not provide or guarantee any trading results. Always combine volume context with your own analysis and risk management.
Smart Range Breakout System (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Smart Range Breakout System (Zeiierman) is a full breakout–trend–risk framework engineered around volatility compression, adaptive range detection, and a volatility-adaptive structural mapping layer that continuously reshapes itself as price migrates away from compression zones. Rather than reacting to simple line breaks, the system identifies statistically quiet regimes, models the expansion phase as momentum re-enters the market, and then deploys a unified architecture of trend projection, dynamic trailing stops, and risk–reward structuring that evolves in real time with the unfolding move.
This tool is designed for traders who want a self-contained breakout workflow: first detect valid ranges, then trade the expansion, then manage the trend and exits via automatically generated levels and alerts.
⚪ Why This One Is Unique
The core engine combines a custom price-contraction model with volatility-responsive boundary levels to detect when the market is transitioning between quiet and active phases. From this model, the script generates a smoothed synthetic average that acts as the reference point for identifying compression zones and validating breakout conditions. Using this foundation, the system builds a complete visual trade map: breakout boxes that mark consolidation, breakout markers that signal expansion, a trend cloud that tracks directional bias, adaptive trailing stops that follow price movement, and optional risk-reward levels that automatically adjust to each new breakout.
Unlike conventional breakout indicators that rely on a single high/low lookback, this system uses:
A price contraction engine that re-weights candle structure through a momentum-like transform, generating a stabilized price that better captures compression and release.
An adaptive low-volatility counter that waits for statistically quiet behavior before declaring a range.
█ Main Features
⚪ Breakout Signals With Dynamic Risk-Reward Levels
The system identifies meaningful breakouts emerging from compressed price zones and immediately maps a complete trade structure around each signal.
Each breakout generates:
Directional breakout markers to confirm expansion
Entry, Stop, TP1, and TP2 levels that are automatically projected
A dynamic trailing stop is added to lock in profits as the price moves
Risk and reward zones visualized through adaptive fills
Labels that update in real time as targets are reached or invalidated
This creates a clear, self-contained decision map that helps traders evaluate opportunities, manage risk, and track the progression of each breakout without manual calculations.
⚪ Trend Cloud
A continuously updating Trend Cloud highlights the active directional regime and offers immediate visual trend identification through its color-coded bias. It shows whether a breakout aligns with the prevailing direction, provides a smoother and more stable representation of the trend than raw price alone, and creates an intuitive backdrop for distinguishing trend-following opportunities from countertrend setups. By filtering out noise and emphasizing directional stability, the cloud helps improve timing, signal quality, and overall alignment with the dominant market structure.
█ How to Use
⚪ Breakout Trading from Range Boxes
1. Identify Compression Zones
Look for periods where the Range Breakout Box appears: this signals a statistically quiet regime where price has compressed around a bounded range.
The box top and bottom approximate the upper and lower bounds of the market’s recent equilibrium.
2. Trade the Expansion
Bullish Breakout:
Triggered when the synthetic price crosses above the box top.
A green breakout marker appears below the price (triangle up).
This signals that price is breaking out of the compression zone with enough momentum to establish a meaningful structural move to the upside.
Bearish Breakout:
Triggered when the price crosses below the box bottom.
A red breakout marker appears above the price (triangle down).
Signals a breakdown out of the range to the downside.
⚪ Trend Following with the Trend Cloud
The Trend Cloud is a volatility-responsive band that adjusts to the system’s internal trend. In bullish conditions, it shifts to the up-color beneath price, and in bearish conditions, it flips to the down-color above price, giving a clear visual read of market direction.
The cloud effectively separates impulsive trend legs from noise, so you can align breakout trades only with the dominant directional regime.
Long Setups
Favor long setups (Break Up) when the price is traveling above or inside a bullish cloud.
Short Steups
Favor short setups (Break Down) when the price is below or inside a bearish cloud.
Ignore counter-trend breakouts that form directly against a strong, stable cloud unless you are intentionally trading mean reversion.
⚪ Breakout Management and Risk-Reward
Once a breakout occurs, the system instantly activates a directional trailing stop that follows the trend. For long setups, the stop stays below the price and moves upward as momentum builds. For short setups, it stays above the price and moves downward as the trend strengthens. If price hits the trailing stop, an X-cross appears on the chart to mark the exit, and the stop is reset for the next signal. You can adjust the sensitivity to make the stop tighter or more relaxed, depending on your preference.
When Risk-Reward Levels are enabled, the script also builds a complete trade structure around the breakout. It places an entry line at the breakout close, and projects two target levels forward. The area between entry and stop is shaded as risk, while the area toward the targets is shaded as reward. Labels update automatically as targets are reached, turning into a clear confirmation mark when a level is hit and signaling with an icon if the stop is touched.
Together, the trailing stop and risk-reward ladder create a clear, real-time map of each breakout’s progression, helping you manage risk, monitor targets, and follow the move with structure and confidence.
█ How It Works
⚪ Compression Detection & Range Formation
The system identifies quiet market phases where price contracts into narrow zones and stabilizes around a synthetic equilibrium level. These zones form the foundation for valid breakout opportunities.
Calculation: Persistence-based boundary tracking with volatility-normalized change detection and equilibrium anchoring to identify statistically constrained price regimes.
⚪ Breakout Engine
Breakouts occur only when the internal average breaks out of a validated compression zone, confirming that the market is transitioning from containment to expansion.
Calculation: Boundary-crossing logic on dispersion-expanded structures with directional state shifts encoded through threshold-gated transitions.
⚪ Trend State
A dynamic trend state guides directional bias, while the Trend Cloud visually expresses this bias directly on the chart, shifting beneath or above the price depending on the active regime.
Calculation: Dual-regime state modeling using filtered directional vectors, volatility-responsive offsets, and continuity enforcement to avoid noise-driven flips.

Dynamic Fair-Value Ribbon Pro @darshakssc1. What This Indicator Is (In Simple Terms)
The Dynamic Fair-Value Ribbon Pro is a visual tool that helps you see how price behaves around a statistically derived “fair-value zone”:
A colored ribbon/cloud marks a central “fair” area.
Areas above the ribbon are labeled as “Unfair High Zone”.
Areas below the ribbon are labeled as “Unfair Low Zone”.
A small state panel tells you where price currently sits relative to this ribbon.
All calculations are based only on historical price, volume, and volatility.
It does not predict future price, does not give buy/sell signals, and is not financial advice.
2. Adding the Indicator
Open a chart on TradingView.
Click on Indicators .
Search for “Dynamic Fair-Value Ribbon Pro” .
Click to add it to your chart.
You will see:
A cloud/ribbon around price.
Colored bars when price is outside the ribbon.
A panel in the top right describing the current state.
3. Core Concept: Fair vs Unfair Zones (Analytical Only)
The indicator tries to answer a descriptive question:
“Where is price trading relative to a historically derived central area?”
It does this by:
Calculating a central value (“fair mid”).
Building a band around that mid.
Coloring the chart depending on whether price is inside or outside that band.
It is not claiming that:
Price “must” return to the band.
Price is “overvalued” or “undervalued”.
Any state is good or bad.
It is simply a visual classification tool .
4. Engine Modes — How the Ribbon Is Calculated
Under “Fair-Value Engine” you can choose:
4.1 Mode 1: Range
Looks back over a chosen number of bars (default: 100).
Finds the highest high and lowest low in that window.
Defines a central “slice” of that range as the fair-value ribbon :
Range Mode: Lower Percent → bottom boundary of the slice (e.g., 30%).
Range Mode: Upper Percent → top boundary of the slice (e.g., 70%).
Effect:
The ribbon represents a middle portion of the historical range .
Above the ribbon = “Unfair High Zone” (analytical label only).
Below the ribbon = “Unfair Low Zone”.
This is purely statistical — it does not mean price is wrong or will revert.
4.2 Mode 2: VWAP + Stdev
In this mode, the central value is based on VWAP :
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) is used as the midline.
A standard deviation envelope is built around VWAP:
VWAP Mode: Stdev Multiplier controls how wide that envelope is.
Effect:
The ribbon shows where price is trading relative to a volume-weighted average .
Again, areas above and below are just described as “unfair” zones in a visual, analytical sense , not a predictive one.
5. ATR Adaptive Width — Making the Ribbon React to Volatility
Under “ATR Adaptive Width” :
Use ATR Adaptive Width:
On: the band width scales with volatility.
Off: band width stays fixed based on Range or VWAP settings.
ATR Length: how many bars to use for ATR.
Reference ATR (% of price): a reference level for normal volatility.
Min Width Scale / Max Width Scale: clamps the scaling so that the band doesn’t get too narrow or too wide.
What this does (analytically):
When volatility (ATR) is higher than the reference, the band can become wider .
When volatility is lower , the band can become narrower .
This is a mathematical rescaling only and does not imply any optimal levels or performance.
6. Visual Elements — What You See on the Chart
6.1 Fair-Value Ribbon (Cloud)
The cloud between Fair Ribbon Low and Fair Ribbon High is the fair zone .
Color can be changed via “Fair Ribbon Color” .
6.2 Midline
If “Show Center Line” is enabled:
A line runs through the middle of the ribbon.
In Range mode, this is the average of the upper and lower band.
In VWAP mode, it’s essentially the VWAP-based mid.
This line is for visual reference only and makes no claims about support, resistance, or reversion.
6.3 Bar Colors
Unfair High Zone: bars are colored with Unfair High Bar Color.
Unfair Low Zone: bars are colored with Unfair Low Bar Color.
Inside the ribbon:
If “Fade Bars Inside Fair Zone” is ON, bars may be more faded/neutral.
These colors are simply classification highlights ; they do not tell you what to do.
6.4 State Panel (Top Right)
If “Show State Panel” is enabled, you’ll see a small box that displays:
Current engine:
Range or VWAP+Stdev.
Current price state:
Inside Ribbon (Fair Zone)
Above Ribbon (Unfair High Zone)
Below Ribbon (Unfair Low Zone)
This is a quick summary of where price sits relative to the computed ribbon.
7. Typical Ways to Use It (Informational Only)
The indicator can help you visually:
See when price is spending time inside a historically defined central zone.
Notice when price is frequently trading outside that zone.
Compare different timeframes (e.g., 5m vs 1h vs 4h) to see how the fair zone shifts.
Experiment with:
Range length (shorter vs longer lookback).
VWAP vs Range mode.
ATR adaptation on/off.
Important:
Any interpretation of these visuals is entirely up to the user.
The script does not tell you to buy, sell, hold, or do anything specific.
8. Limitations and Important Notes
All calculations use past data only (price, volume, volatility).
The ribbon does not guarantee:
that price will revert,
that zones will hold,
or that any outcome will occur.
There are no built-in signals such as “long/short” or automatic entries/exits.
The script is best used as a supporting, visual layer alongside other tools or methods you choose.

Volume Matrix Pro [ChartNation]Volume Matrix Pro is a comprehensive volume profile indicator that combines delta-colored volume distribution analysis with adaptive pivot detection and automated volume node identification. The indicator visualizes where institutional volume accumulated at specific price levels, providing traders with precise entry zones backed by actual trading data.
KEY FEATURES:
Delta-Colored Volume Profile: Displays volume distribution across price bins with automatic delta coloring - green bins show buyer dominance, red bins show seller control at each price level
High Volume Nodes (HVN) Detection: Automatically identifies and marks price levels with ≥80% of POC volume using yellow diamond markers - these act as magnetic support/resistance zones where institutions built positions
Low Volume Nodes (LVN) Detection: Marks thin volume areas with gray diamond markers - zones where price moves quickly with minimal friction, ideal for breakout targets
Adaptive Smart Pivots: ATR-based pivot detection that automatically adjusts length based on market volatility - catches more swings in low volatility, filters to major reversals in high volatility
Point of Control (POC) Line: Identifies the price level with maximum traded volume - the market's center of gravity. Line colors by delta: green when buyers dominated, red when sellers controlled the level
Value Area Lines: Dotted lines marking the 70% value area (configurable 50-98%) with delta-based coloring showing cumulative buyer/seller pressure within the range
Circle Pivot Markers: Clean visual markers at confirmed pivot points with translucent horizontal lines extending to current bar
Extend-Until-Touch: Pivot lines automatically retract when price touches them, keeping charts clean and showing active levels only
Dual Profile Modes: Left-side profile (default) or right-pinned bars ahead of price with fully customizable width and padding
Volume-Filtered Pivots: Only displays pivots with significant volume backing (≥20% of POC by default) - institutional turning points, not noise
HOW IT WORKS:
The indicator divides the lookback range (default 200 bars) into volume bins (default 50) and calculates total volume and delta (buying vs selling pressure) at each price level. Each bin is colored green if buyers dominated (close > open majority) or red if sellers controlled (close < open majority).
High Volume Nodes mark price levels where the most trading occurred - these become magnetic support/resistance zones. The Point of Control identifies the single price with maximum volume, acting as the market's gravitational center.
Smart Pivots use ATR to adapt to changing volatility, then filter against the volume profile. Only pivots with substantial volume backing are displayed, ensuring you see institutional turning points, not random noise.
RECOMMENDED SETTINGS:
Scalping (1-5 min): 100 lookback bars, 40 bins, 5-7 pivot length
Day Trading (15 min - 1 hour): 200 lookback bars, 50 bins, 10 pivot length (default)
Swing Trading (4 hour - Daily): 300-500 lookback bars, 60 bins, 15-20 pivot length
USAGE TIPS:
Enter long when price touches green HVN zones with adaptive pivot confirmation
Enter short when price reaches red HVN zones with pivot confirmation
Use POC as first target when entering below it, or as support backup when entering above
Watch for LVN zones as potential breakout acceleration areas
Combine green delta bins + HVN + pivot for highest-probability setups
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT:
Unlike traditional volume profiles, Volume Matrix Pro colors each bin individually by delta, giving granular insight into buyer/seller control at every price level. The adaptive pivot system adjusts automatically to volatility, while volume-filtering ensures only institutionally-backed turning points are displayed. High/Low Volume Node detection is fully automated with visual markers.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
This is a volume analysis tool - use with trend analysis and risk management
High Volume Nodes show where volume accumulated historically, not future support/resistance guarantees
Adaptive pivots adjust to volatility automatically but can still produce false signals in choppy markets
Best used as confirmation alongside price action, not as a standalone system
Profile recalculates on each bar to reflect current lookback range
Pressure Pivots - MPI (Strategy)⇋ PRESSURE PIVOTS — MARKET PRESSURE INDEX STRATEGY
A comprehensive reversal trading system that combines order flow pressure analysis, multi-factor confluence detection, and adaptive machine learning to identify high-probability turning points in liquid markets.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
CORE INNOVATION: MARKET PRESSURE INDEX (MPI)
Traditional indicators measure price movement. The Market Pressure Index measures the force behind the movement.
How MPI Works:
Every bar tells two stories through volume distribution:
• Buy Pressure: Volume × (Close - Low) / (High - Low)
• Sell Pressure: Volume × (High - Close) / (High - Low)
• Net Pressure: Buy Pressure - Sell Pressure
This raw pressure is then normalized against baseline activity to create the bounded MPI (-1.0 to +1.0):
• Smooth Pressure: EMA(Net Pressure, period)
• Baseline Activity: SMA(|Net Pressure|, period × 2)
• MPI: (Smooth Pressure / Baseline) × Sensitivity
What MPI Reveals:
MPI > +0.7: Extreme buy pressure → Exhaustion potential
MPI = +0.2 to +0.7: Healthy bullish momentum
MPI = -0.2 to +0.2: Neutral/balanced pressure
MPI = -0.7 to -0.2: Healthy bearish momentum
MPI < -0.7: Extreme sell pressure → Exhaustion potential
Why It Works:
Two bars can both move 10 points, but if one closes at the high on high volume (aggressive buying) and the other closes mid-range on average volume (weak buying), only MPI distinguishes between sustainable momentum and exhaustion. This volume-weighted pressure analysis reveals conviction behind price moves—the key to timing reversals.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SEVEN-FACTOR CONFLUENCE SYSTEM
MPI extremes alone aren't enough. The system requires multiple independent confirmations through weighted scoring:
1. DIVERGENCE (Weight: 3.0) — Premium Signal Type: DIV
Price makes new high but MPI makes lower high (or inverse for bullish)
• Detection: Tracks pivots with 5-bar lookback, compares price vs MPI at pivot points
• Signal: Purple triangles, highest weight (pressure weakening while price extends)
2. LIQUIDITY SWEEP (Weight: 2.5) — Premium Signal Type: LIQ
Price breaks swing high/low within 0.3 ATR then reverses
• Detection: Break within tolerance + close back through level
• Signal: Orange triangles, second-highest weight (stop hunt reversal)
3. ORDER FLOW IMBALANCE (Weight: 2.0) — Premium Signal Type: OF
Aggressive buying/selling 50% above normal
• Detection: EMA(aggressive volume) vs SMA(imbalance) threshold
• Signal: Aqua triangles, institutional positioning
4. VELOCITY EXHAUSTION (Weight: 1.5)
Parabolic move (2+ ATRs in 3 bars) + extreme MPI
• Detection: |3-bar price change / ATR| > threshold + MPI > ±0.5
• Indicates: Momentum deceleration, blow-off top/bottom
5. WICK REJECTION (Weight: 1.5)
Single bar: wick > 60% of range, or sequence: 2 bars with 40% + 30% wicks
• Detection: Shooting stars (bearish) or hammers (bullish)
• Indicates: Intrabar rejection, battle won by opposing side
6. VOLUME SPIKE (Weight: 1.0)
Volume > 20-bar average × multiplier (default: 2.0x)
• Detection: Participation surge confirmation
• Lowest weight: Can be manipulated, better as confirmation
7. POSITION FACTOR (Weight: 1.0)
At 10-bar highest (bearish) or lowest (bullish)
• Detection: Structural positioning for reversal
• Base requirement: Must be at extreme to score
Scoring Logic:
Premium Signals (DIV/LIQ/OF): Must score ≥6.0 (default premiumThreshold)
Standard Signals (STD): Must score ≥4.0 (default standardThreshold)
Example Scoring:
Divergence (3.0) + Liquidity Sweep (2.5) + Volume (1.0) = 6.5 → FIRES (DIV signal)
Recent High (1.0) + Wick (1.5) + Volume (1.0) + Velocity (1.5) = 5.0 → FIRES (STD signal)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
ADAPTIVE LEARNING ENGINE
Unlike static strategies, this system learns from every trade and optimizes itself.
Performance Tracking:
Every trade records:
• Entry Score: Confluence level at entry
• Signal Type: DIV / LIQ / OF / STD
• Win/Loss: Boolean outcome
• R-Multiple: (Exit - Entry) / (Entry - Stop)
• MAE: Maximum Adverse Excursion (worst drawdown)
• MFE: Maximum Favorable Excursion (best profit reached)
Three Adaptive Parameters:
1. Signal Threshold Adaptation
If Win Rate < Target (45%): RAISE threshold → fewer signals, better quality
If Win Rate > Target + 10% AND good R: LOWER threshold → more signals, profitable
2. Stop Distance Adaptation
If Avg MAE > 0.85 AND WR < 50%: WIDEN stops → reduce premature exits
If Avg MAE < 0.4 AND WR > 55%: TIGHTEN stops → reduce risk
3. Target Distance Adaptation
If Avg MFE > Target × 1.5: EXTEND targets → capture more of runners
If Avg MFE < Target × 0.7: SHORTEN targets → take profits faster
Signal Type Filtering:
The system tracks performance by type (DIV/LIQ/OF/STD):
• If Type WR < 40% AND Avg R < 0.8: Type DISABLED
• If Type WR ≥ 40% OR Avg R ≥ 0.8: Type RE-ENABLED
Example: If OF signals consistently lose while DIV signals win, system automatically stops taking OF signals and focuses on DIV.
Warmup Period:
First 30 trades (default) gather baseline data with relaxed thresholds. After warmup, full adaptation activates.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
COMPLETE POSITION MANAGEMENT
Dynamic Position Sizing:
Base Contracts = (Equity × Risk%) / (Stop Distance × Point Value)
Then multiplied by:
• Score Bonus: Up to +50% for highest-scoring signals
• Signal Type Bonus: DIV signals +50%, LIQ signals +30%
• Streak Multiplier: After 3 losses: 50% reduction, After 3 wins: 25% increase
Example: High-scoring DIV signal on winning streak = 3-4× larger position than weak STD signal on losing streak
Entry Modes:
Single Entry: Full size at once, exit at TP2 (or partial at TP1)
Tiered Entry: 40% at TP1 (2R), 60% at TP2 (4R adaptive)
Stop Management (3 Modes):
Structural: Beyond recent 20-bar swing high/low + buffer
ATR: Fixed ATR multiplier (default: 2.0 ATR, then adapts)
Hybrid: Attempt structural, fallback to ATR if invalid
Plus:
• Breakeven: Move stop to entry ± 1 tick when 1R reached
• Trailing: Activate when 1.5R reached, trail 0.8R behind price
• Max Loss Override: Cap dollar risk regardless of calculation
Target Management:
Fixed Mode: TP1 = 2R, TP2 = 4R
Adaptive Mode: TP1 = 2R fixed, TP2 adapts based on MFE analysis
Partial Exits: Default 50% at TP1, remainder at TP2 or trailing stop

PROFESSIONAL USAGE PROTOCOL
Phase 1: Paper Trading (Weeks 1-4)
• Setup: Default settings, all adaptive features ON, 0.5% base risk
• Goal: 30+ trades for warmup, observe MPI behavior and signal frequency
• Adjust: MPI sensitivity if stuck near neutral or always at extremes
• Threshold: Raise/lower if too many/few signals
Phase 2: Micro Live (Weeks 5-8)
• Requirements: WR >43%, at least one type >55%, Avg R >0.8
• Setup: 10-25% intended size, 0.5-1.0% risk, 1 position max
• Focus: Execution quality, match dashboard performance
• Journal: Screenshot every signal, track outcomes
Phase 3: Full Scale (Month 3+)
• Requirements: WR >45% over 50+ trades, Avg R >1.2, drawdown <15%
• Progression: Months 3-4 (1.0-1.5% risk), 5-6 (1.5-2.0%), 7+ (1.5-2.5%)
• Maintenance: Weekly dashboard review, monthly deep analysis
• Warnings: Reduce size if WR drops >10%, consecutive losses >7, or drawdown >20%
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
DEVELOPMENT INSIGHTS
The Pressure Insight: Emerged from analyzing intrabar volume distribution. Within every candlestick, volume accumulates at different price levels. MPI deconstructs this to reveal conviction behind moves.
The Confluence Challenge: Early versions using MPI extremes alone achieved only 42% win rate. The seven-factor confluence system emerged from testing which combinations produced reliable reversals. Divergence + liquidity sweep became the strongest setup (68% win rate in isolation).
The Adaptive Breakthrough: Per-signal-type performance tracking revealed DIV signals winning at 71% while OF signals languished at 38%. Adaptive filtering disabled weak types automatically, recovering win rate from 39% to 54% during the 2022 volatility spike.
The Position Sizing Revelation: Dynamic sizing based on signal quality and recent performance increased Sharpe ratio from 1.2 to 1.9 while decreasing max drawdown from 18% to 12% over 500 trades. Bigger positions on better signals = geometric edge amplification.
The Risk Control Lesson: Testing with $50K accounts revealed catastrophic failure modes: daily loss cascades, overtrading commission bleed, weekend gap blowouts. Multi-layer controls (daily limits, concurrent caps, prop firm protection) became essential.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
LIMITATIONS & ASSUMPTIONS
What This Is NOT:
• NOT a Holy Grail: Typical performance 52-58% WR, 1.3-1.8 avg R, probabilistic edge
• NOT Predictive: Identifies high-probability conditions, doesn't forecast prices
• NOT Market-Agnostic: Best on liquid auction-driven markets (futures, forex, major crypto)
• NOT Hands-Off: Requires oversight for news events, gaps, system anomalies
• NOT Immune to Regime Changes: Adaptive engine helps but cannot predict black swans
Critical Assumptions:
1. Volume reflects intent (valid for regulated markets, violated by wash trading)
2. Pressure extremes mean-revert (true in ranging/exhaustion, fails in paradigm shifts)
3. Stop hunts exist (valid in liquid markets, less in thin/random walk periods)
4. Past patterns persist (valid in stable regimes, fails when structure fundamentally changes)
Works Best On: Major futures (ES, NQ, CL), liquid forex pairs (EUR/USD, GBP/USD), large-cap stocks, BTC
Performs Poorly On: Low-volume stocks, illiquid crypto pairs, news-driven headline events

Key Features
🧠 Smart Symbol Detection : automatically detects your current exchange (Binance, Bybit, OKX, etc.) and tries multiple ticker formats (e.g., .P, _OI, _FR) to find valid data. No more manual ticker searching.
📊 Dual-Pane Visualization :
Open Interest (Line): Displayed as a smoothed line area to visualize market participation and trend strength.
Funding Rate (Columns): Color-coded columns (Teal/Red) to instantly spot bullish or bearish sentiment extremes.
⚡ Real-Time Dashboard : A clean, non-intrusive table in the top-right corner displays:
Current Stats : Exact OI (formatted in Millions/Billions) and Funding Rate % for the coin you are viewing.
Market Reference : Live Funding Rates for BTCUSDT and ETHUSDT from your specific exchange to use as a baseline for market sentiment.
How to Use
1. Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to any Crypto Perpetual Futures chart (e.g., BTCUSDT.P, SOLUSDT.P).
2. Scale Setup (Important): Since Open Interest (Millions) and Funding Rates (0.01%) have vastly different values, you must separate their scales:Right-click the Blue Line (OI) $\rightarrow$ Select Pin to Scale Right.Right-click the Columns (Funding) $\rightarrow$ Select Pin to Scale Left.
3. Interpret the Data:High OI + Positive Funding: Strong Bullish sentiment (Longs paying Shorts). Watch for Long Squeezes.High OI + Negative Funding: Strong Bearish sentiment (Shorts paying Longs). Watch for Short Squeezes.Dashboard Ref: Compare your coin's funding to BTC/ETH. If your coin has 0.1% funding while BTC is 0.01%, your crypto is significantly "hotter" than the market average.
