FVG Volume Profile [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
FVG Volume Profile is a smart volume analysis tool that identifies Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and overlays a volume profile inside each gap using data from lower timeframes. The indicator automatically selects the best time resolution or allows for manual control, giving traders deeper insight into the volume structure within each imbalance. POC levels and total volumes gives a full microstructure view inside every FVG.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Fair Value Gap Detection (Bullish & Bearish)
Detects price gaps where inefficiency exists using a 3-bar structure.
-Bullish Gaps: Low > High with confirming middle bar.
-Bearish Gaps: High < Low with confirming middle bar.
Only significant gaps (filtered by standard deviation) are plotted to avoid noise.
Multi-Timeframe Volume Profiling
Pulls granular candle and volume data from a lower timeframe —
In Auto Mode, uses a resolution ~10x lower than the current chart.
In Manual Mode, lets the user select a custom timeframe.
This ensures accurate intra-gap volume distribution.
Dynamic Volume Binning
Each FVG is divided into vertical volume bins based on the Resolution input.
Each bin displays relative volume intensity as a horizontal box, scaled by percentage of the max bin volume.
Point of Control (PoC) Line & Label
The bin with the maximum volume inside each FVG is marked with:
A horizontal line (PoC) extending from the left to right side.
A label showing the absolute volume of that bin.
Color-coded to match bullish or bearish FVGs.
Total Volume Label Inside FVG
Each FVG displays the total volume sum from its profile:
For bullish FVGs , shown in the bottom-right corner.
For bearish FVGs , shown in the top-right corner.
Auto-Removal of Invalid Gaps
If price fully closes the gap (crosses its bounds), the FVG, profile, and PoC are deleted automatically.
This keeps the chart clean and focused only on active zones.
Toggleable Volume Profile Display
User can show or hide the volume profiles within FVGs using the "Display" toggle under the "FVG Volume Profile" group.
Only the PoC and FVG boxes remain visible if toggled off.
Volume Resolution Customization
Control the number of bins used for each FVG profile.
Higher resolution = more bins and finer volume analysis. (default 15)
Auto Timeframe Validation Warning
If the selected lower timeframe isn’t actually lower than the chart's, the script shows a visible warning label prompting adjustment.
Helps prevent calculation errors.
⯁ USAGE
Use this tool to identify active imbalance zones (FVGs) with embedded volume context.
Look for PoC positioning inside gaps — near top may indicate absorption or reversal zones.
Combine with price action at the PoC level for precision entries.
Hide volume profile for a cleaner view while retaining key POC and FVG boxes.
Use resolution controls to zoom into fine-grained profiles inside large gaps.
Consider Auto mode for seamless multi-timeframe analysis, or switch to Manual for full control.
⯁ CONCLUSION
FVG Volume Profile transforms raw imbalance detection into actionable insight by embedding lower-timeframe volume structure inside each Fair Value Gap. With PoC highlights, total volume labels, and customizable bin resolution, this indicator is essential for traders who want to understand not just where the gap is — but what volume did inside it .

Mean Reverting Suite [OmegaTools]Overview
The Mean Reverting Suits (MR Suite) by OmegaTools is an advanced analytical and visualization framework designed to identify directional exhaustion, statistical overextensions, and conditions consistent with mean-reversion dynamics. It integrates three pillars into a single display: a composite momentum-normalized oscillator, a percentile-based extension model with volume contextualization, and a dynamic structural mapping engine built on confirmed pivots. The indicator does not generate signals or prescribe trade actions; it provides objective context so users can evaluate market balance and the likelihood that price is departing from its recent statistical baseline.
Core logic
The composite oscillator blends MFI on two horizons and RSI on HL2, then averages them to produce a stabilized mean-reversion gauge. Candle and bar colors are mapped by a dual gradient centered at 50. Readings above 50 progressively shift from neutral gray toward the bearish accent color to reflect increasing momentum saturation; readings below 50 shift from the bullish accent color toward gray to reflect potential accumulation or temporary undervaluation. This continuous mapping avoids rigid thresholds and conveys the strength and decay of momentum as a smooth spectrum.
The percentile-based extension model measures the persistence of directional bias by tracking how many bars have elapsed since the last opposing condition. These rolling counts are compared to the 80th percentile of their own historical distributions stored in arrays. When a current streak exceeds its respective percentile, the environment is labeled as statistically extended in that direction. Background shading communicates this information and is modulated by relative volume, computed as live volume divided by a blended average of SMA(30) and EMA(11). Higher opacity implies greater liquidity participation during the extension.
The structural mapping module uses confirmed pivot highs and lows at the chosen length to create persistent horizontal levels that extend forward and automatically maintain themselves until price invalidates or refreshes them. These levels represent market memory zones and assist in reading where reactions previously formed. The engine updates in real time, ensuring the framework continuously reflects the prevailing structure.
Standard deviation and z-score overlay
The updated version introduces a mean and dispersion layer. A simple moving average of HL2 over twice the length provides the reference mean. Dispersion is estimated as the moving average of the absolute deviation between close and the mean over five times the length. The z-score is computed as the distance of price from the mean divided by this dispersion proxy. Visual arrows highlight observations where the absolute z-score exceeds two standard deviations, offering a concise view of statistically unusual departures from the local mean. This layer complements the percentile extension model by adding an orthogonal measure of extremity based on distributional distance rather than run length.
Visualization
Candle bodies and borders inherit the oscillator’s gradient color, creating an immediate sense of directional pressure and potential momentum fatigue. The chart background activates when the extension model detects a statistically rare streak, using blue tones for bearish extension and red tones for bullish extension, with intensity scaling by relative volume. Horizontal lines denote active pivot-based levels, automatically extending, truncating, and refreshing as structure evolves. The z-score arrows appear only when deviations exceed the ±2 threshold, keeping the display focused on noteworthy statistical events.
Inputs and configuration
Length controls the sensitivity of all modules. Lower values make the oscillator and pivot detection more reactive; higher values smooth readings and widen structural context. Bullish and Bearish colors are user-selectable to match platform themes or accessibility requirements.
Interpretation guidance
A strong red background indicates an unusually extended bullish run in the presence of meaningful volume; a strong blue background indicates an unusually extended bearish run in the presence of meaningful volume. Candle gradients near deep bearish tones suggest oscillator readings well above 50; gradients near deep bullish tones suggest oscillator readings well below 50. Pivot lines mark the most recently confirmed structural levels that the market has reacted to. Z-score arrows denote points where price has moved beyond approximately two standard deviations of its local mean, signaling statistically uncommon distance rather than directional persistence. None of these elements are directives; they are objective descriptors designed to improve situational awareness.
Advantages
The framework is adaptive by design and self-normalizes to each instrument’s volatility and rhythm through percentile logic and dispersion-based distance. It is volume-aware, visually encoding liquidity pressure so that users can distinguish thin extensions from structurally significant ones. It reduces chart clutter by unifying momentum state, statistical extension, standard deviation distance, and structural levels into a single coherent view. It is asset- and timeframe-agnostic, suitable for intraday through swing horizons across futures, equities, FX, and digital assets.
Usage notes
MR Suite is intended for analytical and educational purposes. It does not provide trading signals, risk parameters, or strategy instructions. Users may employ its context alongside their own methodologies, risk frameworks, and execution rules. The indicator’s value derives from quantifying how unusual a move is, showing how much liquidity supports it, and anchoring that information to evolving structural references, thereby improving the clarity and consistency of discretionary assessment without prescribing actions.
Orderblocks & BreakersThis indicator identifies potential orderblocks and breakers based on recent swing highs and lows. It is built to offer a structured, customizable, and noise-controlled view of how price interacts with supply and demand levels.
The script applies pivot-based swing detection to identify swing highs and lows.
Bullish Orderblocks: The script Identifies and stores the last down candle before a swing high is breached and confirms and plots the orderblock with a market structure break (close above the swing high).
Bearish Orderblocks: The script Identifies and stores the last up candle before a swing low is breached and confirms and plots the orderblock with a market structure break (close below the swing low).
When price later closes through an existing orderblock, it is reclassified as a Breaker and recolored accordingly. (all colors can be changed in the settings)
What Makes It Different
Unlike most orderblock tools that simply mark every swing-based block, this version introduces:
1. Chop Control – automatically hides breakers that price repeatedly closes through (2 closes after the orderblock becomes a breaker), keeping only relevant zones visible.
2. Recent Block Filtering – limits how many of the recent orderblocks or breakers are displayed, preventing chart clutter.
3. Dynamic Updating – orderblocks automatically convert to breakers when price closes beyond them, with clear color changes.
These features make it easier to study cleaner price structure without manually managing old or invalid zones. The optional Chop Control filter can reduce overlapping or repeatedly invalidated zones to keep the chart clearer.
Customizable Parameters
- Swing detection length (shorter means more aggressive pivot detection, longer means less aggressive so less highs/lows detected)
- Number of recent blocks to display
- Visibility toggles for orderblocks or breakers
- Color and transparency controls for each type
Alerts
Alerts can be set to trigger when price tests any defined zone.
Purpose
This indicator is designed as a price structure visualization and study tool.
It may assist in understanding how price interacts with previously active regions, but it does not produce signals or trade recommendations.
First week of the yearA very simple indicator that marks a channel on the candlestick for the first week of the year.
The channel can serve as an entry/exit point with a medium and long term focus.

Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R [Alpha Extract]Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R is a precision-crafted trailing stop and market structure detection system that fuses advanced Chandelier Exit logic with intelligent, multi-timeframe support and resistance tracking. This indicator delivers adaptive trend detection, volatility-aware exit positioning, and real-time structural mapping in a clean, responsive format. By combining directional filtering, pivot zone detection, and customizable styling, Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R is designed to give traders reliable context, strong risk management, and visually intuitive confirmation signals across all timeframes and asset classes.
🔶 Adaptive Trailing Stop Architecture
At the core of Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R is a refined Chandelier Exit mechanism that dynamically calculates trailing stops based on recent highs and lows, ATR volatility, and trend sensitivity. The system features directional memory, anchoring the stop to maintain position until a confirmed trend break occurs. This method prevents premature flips and keeps the trade aligned with sustained momentum.
longStop := close > longStop ? math.max(longStop, longStop ) : longStop
shortStop := close < shortStop ? math.min(shortStop, shortStop ) : shortStop
🔶 Volatility-Weighted Filtering
To reduce noise and improve reaction quality, Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R includes an optional volatility normalization filter. This system adjusts ATR output based on how elevated it is relative to its own average, effectively down-weighting erratic price moves while maintaining responsiveness in directional phases.
volatilityFilter = enableVolatilityFilter ? ta.sma(baseATR, length) / baseATR : 1.0
atr = mult * baseATR * sensitivity * volatilityFilter
🔶 Trend Strength-Aware State Transitions
Trend flips in Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R are not based solely on price crossing the stop level. Instead, the system includes a momentum-derived trend strength filter that validates the legitimacy of directional shifts. This guards against weak reversals and gives stronger confidence in breakout moves.
priceChange = math.abs(close - close )
avgPriceChange = ta.sma(priceChange, length)
trendStrength = math.min(priceChange / avgPriceChange * 100, 200)
🔶 Multi-Timeframe Support & Resistance Zones
Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R embeds a sophisticated pivot-based structure mapping engine that automatically identifies significant price reaction levels and tracks their validity over time. It filters redundant zones, removes invalidated levels, and renders real-time support and resistance overlays based on market structure.
if isUniqueLevel(ph, resistanceLevels)
array.unshift(resistanceLevels, ph)
if isUniqueLevel(pl, supportLevels)
array.unshift(supportLevels, pl)
🔶 Dynamic Visual Encoding
The indicator uses strength-scaled fills, customizable colors, and line styling to convey directional bias with clarity. Color opacity intensifies as trend strength increases, offering intuitive context at a glance. Dynamic background fills mark trend states, while S/R zones are rendered with user-defined transparency for clean integration.
🔶 Signal Detection and Alerts
Directional signals are generated upon confirmed flips between long and short regimes, validated by stop crosses and strength filters. Additionally, the indicator provides S/R breakout alerts, identifying when price breaks through a key structural level.
🔶 Performance and Customization Optimizations
Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R is built with modularity and efficiency in mind. It supports full customization of stop logic, volatility sensitivity, structural lookback, S/R zone filtering, and visual display. The use of array-based data structures for S/R levels ensures consistent performance even across high-activity assets and longer lookback periods.
Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R represents the next evolution in trailing stop and structure-aware trading tools. By blending the proven logic of the Chandelier Exit system with intelligent trend strength filters and robust S/R detection, it becomes more than just a stop indicator—it becomes a complete trade management companion. Traders benefit from fewer false flips, clearer directional bias, and precise structural overlays that reinforce both breakout and reversal strategies. Whether used for swing entries, intraday positioning, or zone-based re-entries, Advanced Chandelier Exit with S/R empowers traders with responsive, intelligent logic that adapts to market conditions without compromise.
Arithmetic Candles with Pivot Trend Signals📘 Script Description
🕯️ Arithmetic Candles
Instead of using traditional candlesticks, this script calculates:
Arithmetic Open = Average of open and close
Arithmetic Close = Average of high and low
This candle provides a smoother, more averaged-out representation of price action.
Benefit: Filters out noise and reveals a more "true" price midpoint per candle.
🧭 Pivot Point Levels (Classic)
Classic pivot levels are calculated using the previous day's values:
Pivot (P) = (High + Low + Close) / 3
R1 / S1: First resistance/support levels
R2 / S2: Extended resistance/support levels
These lines mark key price levels that often act as support or resistance.
📈 Trend Signals
The script generates trend signals when a selected price source crosses above or below the pivot:
Bullish Signal (green arrow): When price crosses above the pivot
Bearish Signal (red arrow): When price crosses below the pivot
You can choose the signal source:
Either the regular close price
Or the Arithmetic Candle midpoint: (arithOpen + arithClose) / 2
🎨 Visual Representation
Candles are colored green when arithClose > arithOpen, otherwise red
Pivot lines are drawn if enabled
Triangles mark trend change signals (bullish or bearish)
✅ Use Case
In sideways markets, Arithmetic Candles help filter out noise
Pivot Levels provide clear price zones for potential breakouts or reversals
Dubbsy - Pivot Dots (3L/3R)Marking Pivot Levels with Dots.
Pivot Highs - get marked with a red dot above a Candle's high that has 3 lower highs on both sides
Pivot Lows - get market with a green dot below a Candle's low that has 3 higher lows on both sides
FVG Zones with Signals█ OVERVIEW
"FVG Zones with Signals" is a technical analysis tool that identifies Fair Value Gaps (FVG) on the chart and draws customizable zones in the form of boxes. It is ideal for traders using price action and market structure strategies, helping to identify potential imbalance zones and trading opportunities based on breakout and exit signals. With flexible size filter settings, box styles, and signal options, the indicator ensures clarity and precision on the chart.
█ CONCEPTS
The indicator is designed to identify potential entry points for trades based on FVG breakouts or retests. For chart clarity, a size filter for FVGs is included, based on a multiplier of the average candle size over a specified period.
Why are FVGs important? FVG zones represent areas of market imbalance, often attracting price back to "fill" the gap. Larger gaps (with a higher size multiplier) have a greater chance of being retested, as they indicate deeper imbalances—leaving more unexecuted orders in those zones, which attracts liquidity. Market makers and institutions often return to these levels to "refresh" liquidity before further moves. However, not every large FVG is retested quickly—in strong trends, smaller imbalances may be ignored, and the location (e.g., near swing highs/lows) is critical for retest probability.
█ FEATURES
- FVG Detection: Identifies bullish and bearish FVGs based on size filters (Candle Size Period and FVG Size Multiplier), with automatic initialization of historical gaps up to 500 candles back.
- Customizable Boxes: Draws FVG boxes with adjustable border colors, background gradients, border styles (solid, dashed, dotted), border widths, and transparency for both the background and the 50% FVG midline.
- Breakout and Exit Signals: Generates "Break" signals (green upward triangle for breakouts above bearish FVG, red downward triangle for breakouts below bullish FVG) and "Exit" signals (circles for exiting the zone), with options to select signal types (Break, Exit, or Both). A break signal causes the box to disappear, leaving a triangle as a trace of the breakout, which may serve as a signal to open a position. Exit signals (circles) may also indicate entry opportunities but require additional confirmation, such as alignment with the main trend.
- Midline: Automatically draws a dashed line at the 50% FVG level with adjustable transparency, aiding in assessing price reactions within the zone.
- Box Limitation: Automatically removes old or inactive FVGs after 500 candles to avoid chart clutter.
- Alerts: Built-in alerts for all signal types, including price and FVG type descriptions.
█ HOW TO USE
Add to Chart: Apply the indicator to your TradingView chart via the Pine Editor or Indicators menu.
Configure Settings:
- FVG Settings: Adjust Candle Size Period (default 20) and FVG Size Multiplier (default 1) to filter out small gaps—higher values generate fewer but more significant FVGs.
- Box Settings: Configure colors and styles for bullish (green) and bearish (red) boxes, including background transparency (default 80) and midline transparency.
- Signal Settings: Select signal types (Break, Exit, or Both) in Signal Type. Breakout signals appear after a candle closes outside the zone, while exit signals appear when exiting an FVG without a full breakout.
- Styling: Customize signal colors (green for buy/up, red for sell/down) and shape sizes.
Interpreting Signals:
- Break Up Signal: A green triangle below the bar indicates a breakout above a bearish FVG, suggesting potential continuation of an uptrend.
- Break Down Signal: A red triangle above the bar indicates a breakout below a bullish FVG, suggesting potential continuation of a downtrend.
- Exit Up/Down Signal: A green/red circle indicates an exit from an FVG without a full breakout, which may signal the end of a correction or preparation for a reversal.
- FVG Zones: If the price returns to an FVG and fills the gap, it may indicate equilibrium; an unfilled gap often leads to a retest.
- Use signals in conjunction with other technical analysis tools for confirmation, such as RSI (to identify overbought/oversold conditions) or MACD (to confirm momentum). Analyze FVGs from higher timeframes—these zones act as stronger imbalance levels and carry greater structural significance.
Exit signals (retests without breakouts) tend to be most effective when traded in line with the current trend.
█ APPLICATIONS
- Price Action Trading: Use FVG zones as dynamic support and resistance levels. In an uptrend, look for buying opportunities in bullish FVGs, where price often tests the gap before continuing. Combining with RSI, MACD, or Fibonacci levels enhances the significance of zones.
- Breakout Strategies: Trade based on breakout signals from FVGs. A buy signal after breaking a bearish FVG may indicate a strong upward impulse, especially when supported by a rising MACD or RSI exiting oversold conditions.
Larger FVG gaps (higher multiplier) have a greater chance of retest, as they indicate deeper imbalances.
█ NOTES
- Test the indicator across different timeframes and markets (stocks, forex, crypto) to optimize size filters for your trading style.
- The indicator initializes historical FVGs up to 500 candles back, which may slow loading on longer charts.
- For best results, use on high-liquidity markets where FVGs are more frequently retested.
- In consolidation zones, the indicator may generate more false signals, so additional confirmation is recommended.
