RED-E Point of ControlRED-E Point of Control (POC) Indicator
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
OVERVIEW
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
The RED-E Point of Control indicator identifies and visualizes the price level where the most trading volume has occurred within a specified lookback period. This volume-weighted price level, known as the Point of Control (POC), often acts as a significant support or resistance zone where institutional traders and market makers have concentrated their activity.
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
WHAT IS POINT OF CONTROL?
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Point of Control is a core concept derived from Volume Profile analysis. It represents the price level with the highest traded volume over a given period—essentially the "fair value" price where buyers and sellers found the most agreement. Price tends to gravitate toward this level and often reacts when testing it, either breaking through with momentum or rejecting and reversing.
Key characteristics of POC:
• Acts as a magnet for price action
• Serves as dynamic support/resistance
• Indicates areas of high liquidity and institutional interest
• Helps identify potential reversal or breakout zones
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
HOW THIS INDICATOR WORKS
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Volume Profile Calculation:
The indicator divides the price range of the lookback period into multiple levels (user-adjustable resolution) and distributes each bar's volume proportionally across the price levels it touches. The level accumulating the highest volume becomes the Point of Control.
Break Detection:
A "break" is identified when:
• Price closes beyond the POC level
• The previous bar's close was on the opposite side of POC
• The close exceeds a user-defined percentage threshold
• The candle closes in the direction of the break (bullish candle for upward break, bearish for downward)
Rejection Detection:
A "rejection" is identified when:
• Price wicks through the POC level
• Price closes back on the original side of POC
• The wick-to-body ratio exceeds a user-defined threshold
• The rejecting wick is larger than the opposite wick

HOW TO USE
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
1. Identify Key Levels: Watch for price approaching the orange POC line—this is where significant volume has traded.
2. Trade Breaks: When you see "BREAK ▲" or "BREAK ▼," price has convincingly moved through the POC. This may indicate continuation in the break direction. The break line marks the level for potential retests.
3. Trade Rejections: When you see "REJECTION ▲" or "REJECTION ▼," price tested the POC but failed to hold beyond it. This suggests the POC is acting as support/resistance and may signal a reversal opportunity.
4. Combine with Context: Use the POC alongside your existing analysis—trend direction, market structure, and other confluence factors—to improve trade decisions.
5. Set Alerts: Configure alerts to notify you of breaks or rejections without watching the chart constantly.

VWAP Wave System ToolkitGENERAL OVERVIEW:
The VWAP Wave System Toolkit is an all-in-one trading indicator based on rules from Auction Market Theory. The indicator is built around Volume-Weighted Average Prices (VWAP), Initial Balance (IB) levels, session/composite volume profiles, low-volume zones, optional candle coloring, trade checklists, dashboard readings, and a watermark.
This indicator was developed by Flux Charts in collaboration with Chris Drysdale (Trader Drysdale), author of the best-selling book VWAP Wave System.
What’s the purpose of this indicator?
The VWAP Wave System Toolkit helps traders see where market value is forming, shifting, or being rejected across different timeframes. It’s built on the ideas of Auction Market Theory, which views the market as a continuous auction between buyers and sellers searching for fair value. The indicator combines VWAPs, Initial Balance levels, and volume profiles into one system that shows how price interacts with value throughout the day, week, and month. By combining short-term and higher-timeframe data, it helps traders understand when the market is balanced and when it’s starting to discover new price areas.
What’s the theory behind this indicator?
This indicator is built on Auction Market Theory, introduced by J. Peter Steidlmayer. The theory says that markets operate as continuous auctions, constantly seeking a fair price where buyers and sellers agree on value. When price stays within a narrow range and volume builds up, the market is balanced around a value area. When price moves away from that area, the market enters price discovery, searching for a new zone of balance. VWAPs represent an evolving measure of value, while Volume Profiles and Initial Balance visualize how the auction developed during each session. Low Volume Zones often show where the market moved too quickly to trade efficiently, making them potential areas of interest for future reactions. By combining these elements, the indicator provides a picture of how the market is auctioning and where value may shift next.
VWAP WAVE SYSTEM TOOLKIT FEATURES:
The VWAP Wave System Toolkit indicator includes 7 main features:
Initial Balance Levels
Multi-Timeframe VWAPs
Session Volume Profile
Composite Volume Profile
Low Volume Zones
Checklist
Watermark
Initial Balance Levels:
🔹What is the Initial Balance?
The Initial Balance (IB) is defined by the high and low prices that form within a specific time window. Typically, this time window is the first hour after the regular day trading session starts (09:30 - 10:30 AM EST).
The high and low formed during this window create the foundation for the day’s price structure. From these two points, the indicator automatically calculates several key reference levels that show how far price has extended beyond the initial range or where it may still be balanced. Understanding how these levels are derived and how to interpret them is essential to using the Initial Balance effectively.
🔹How Initial Balance Levels are calculated:
Once the IB window closes, the indicator plots a full set of reference levels derived from the IB range. These levels are:
IB High
IB Low
IB Midpoint
x2 High / x2 Low
x2 Midpoints (x1.5 High/Low)
x3 High / x3 Low
x3 Midpoints (x2.5 High/Low)
🔹IB High & IB Low
The IB High is the highest price reached during the IB session window, and the IB Low is the lowest price reached.
🔹IB Midpoint
The IB Midpoint is the average of the IB High and IB Low.
🔹x2 High & x2 Low
The x2 levels are calculated by projecting one full IB Range above and below the Initial Balance. The IB Range is the distance between the IB High and IB Low.
🔹x2 High Midpoint & x2 Low Midpoint
The x2 High Midpoint (x1.5 High) is the average of the IB High and x2 High. The x2 Low Midpoint (x1.5 Low) is the average of the IB Low and x2 Low.
🔹x3 High & x3 Low
The x3 High/Low levels are calculated by projecting two full IB Range above and below the Initial Balance.
🔹x3 High Midpoint & x3 Low Midpoint
The x3 High Midpoint (x2.5 High) is the average of the x2 High and x3 High. The x3 Low Midpoint (x2.5 Low) is the average of the x2 Low and x3 Low.
🔹Breaks & Retests:
For every Initial Balance level, the indicator automatically tracks when price retests or breaks through them.
A Break occurs when a candle closes above or below an IB level. When this happens, the indicator plots a small blue triangle.
A Retest occurs when price approaches and touches an IB Level, and then reverses in the opposite direction. When this happens, the indicator plots a small green or red triangle.
Green Triangle: Bullish Retest - Price comes down to a level, touches it, and continues up.
Red Triangle: Bearish Retest - Price comes up to a level, touches it, and continues down.
Both breaks and retests are plotted directly on the chart for every toggled IB level. Once detected, they remain fixed and are not repainted.
Other Settings:
🔹Shade IB Range
When enabled, this setting fills the area between the IB High and IB Low (IB Range). The fill helps visually separate the Initial Balance range from the rest of the session, making it easier to identify when price is trading inside or outside of the IB. The color and opacity can also be adjusted through the settings.
🔹Apply One Color
When this setting is enabled, all toggled IB levels use the same color instead of the user’s inputted colors.
🔹Levels Labels
When enabled, text labels that identify each IB level (for example, “IB High,” “x2 High,” or “x2.5 Low”) appear next to each level.
🔹Price Labels
When enabled, the indicator displays the real-time price value of each IB level directly on the chart. These labels update automatically as price changes or when the levels shift due to recalculation from a new session.
🔹Extend Levels Right
When enabled, all toggled IB Levels will be extended infinitely to the right of the chart.
🔹Align Text Right
This setting aligns all level and price labels to the right edge of the plotted line. When disabled, text labels will be aligned to the left edge of each level.
Multi-Timeframe VWAPs:
🔹Why does this indicator include VWAPs?
This indicator includes VWAPs because they show where the most trading activity has occurred within each timeframe, helping identify the market’s fair value area. According to Auction Market Theory, price moves between periods of balance and imbalance as buyers and sellers seek fair value. VWAPs represent those balance points where the majority of trading has taken place. By plotting the Intraday, Weekly, and Monthly VWAPs, the indicator shows how value shifts across different timeframes and whether the market is balanced or moving toward a new area of value.
🔹Intraday VWAP
The Intraday VWAP measures the average traded price for the current trading session and resets each day at market open. It shows where most of the session’s trading has taken place, acting as a real-time fair value line. When price trades near the Intraday VWAP, the market is considered balanced. When price moves far above or below it, the market is exploring new value areas.
🔹Candle Coloring:
The Intraday VWAP candle coloring highlights how far price is trading from the session’s average value using the first and second standard deviation bands as visual reference zones. This feature helps users see whether price is balanced around fair value or expanding into an overextended area.
When candle coloring is enabled, each candle’s color changes based on where it closes relative to the two standard deviation bands surrounding the Intraday VWAP. The first band represents one standard deviation (1.0 STD) and the second represents one and a half standard deviations (1.5 STD).
If a candle closes above the upper 1.5 standard deviation band, it is colored a brighter green, showing strong movement above fair value. Candles closing between the upper 1.0 and 1.5 standard deviation bands are a lighter green, showing moderate strength. If a candle closes below the lower 1.5 standard deviation band, it is colored a brighter red, showing strong movement below fair value. Candles closing between the lower 1.0 and 1.5 standard deviation bands are a lighter red, showing moderate weakness. Candles that close within the ±1.0 standard deviation range remain their normal color, showing that price is balanced near the session’s average.
Both the VWAP line and its bands can be customized in the Intraday VWAP settings. Users can adjust the VWAP line color, band colors, and fill transparency. The candle colors can also be modified. The band sizes (1.0 STD and 1.5 STD by default) can be changed through their input multipliers, allowing users to control the sensitivity of the zones.
Please Note: This candle coloring applies only to the Intraday VWAP
🔹Weekly VWAP
The Weekly VWAP measures the average traded price across the current trading week and resets at the start of each new week. It reflects the fair value area that has developed over multiple trading days, providing a broader view of market balance compared to the Intraday VWAP. When price stays close to the Weekly VWAP, it indicates that the week’s trading activity is balanced. When price consistently trades above or below it, the market is moving away from that balance and forming value in a new area.
Standard Deviation Bands:
The Weekly VWAP includes optional standard deviation bands. Users can toggle 1x and 1.5x STD bands. Users can also adjust the multipliers.
Customization:
All colors for the Weekly VWAP and its standard deviation bands can be changed in the indicator’s settings. Users can adjust the VWAP line color, band colors, and fill transparency.
🔹Monthly VWAP
The Monthly VWAP measures the average traded price for the current month and resets on the first trading day of each new month. It provides the broadest view of value within this indicator, showing where the majority of trading has occurred during the current month. When price remains near the Monthly VWAP, it reflects long-term balance.
Standard Deviation Bands:
The Monthly VWAP includes optional 1x and 1.5x standard deviation bands that can be enabled or disabled. In the settings, users can adjust the standard deviation multipliers.
Customization:
The Monthly VWAP line, band colors, and fill transparency can all be modified in the indicator’s settings.
🔹VWAP Dashboard
The VWAP Dashboard provides a quick real-time overview of how price is positioned relative to the Intraday, Weekly, and Monthly VWAPs. It is displayed directly on the chart and updates automatically with each new candle.
The dashboard is divided into five labeled sections:
Intraday
Weekly
Monthly
Weekly STD
Monthly STD
Intraday, Weekly, and Monthly Sections:
These three sections show whether price is currently trading Above or Below each VWAP.
If price is above a VWAP, that section displays “Bullish”
If price is below a VWAP, that section displays “Bearish”
Weekly STD and Monthly STD:
These sections display whether price is currently inside or outside the standard deviation bands of the Weekly and Monthly VWAPs.
When price is trading within the ±1.0 standard deviation zone, the dashboard output is “Balanced Market”
When price is above the upper standard deviation, price is extending up beyond the week’s or month’s fair value, and the dashboard output is “Bullish Price Discovery”
When price is below the lower standard deviation, price is extending down beyond the week’s or month’s fair value, and the dashboard output is “Bearish Price Discovery”
🔹What is a Balanced Market
A balanced market occurs when price is trading within the ±1.0 standard deviation range of a VWAP. This shows that buyers and sellers are in general agreement on value, and trading activity is taking place around the fair value area. In this state, price tends to rotate around the VWAP rather than trend strongly away from it. Balance reflects stability in the auction process, where neither side is dominant and value is being built at current prices.
🔹What is Bullish Price Discovery
Bullish Price Discovery occurs when price trades above the upper standard deviation of a VWAP. This indicates that buyers are accepting higher prices and that value may be shifting upward. In terms of Auction Market Theory, the market is moving away from balance as it searches for a new fair value area above the prior range.
🔹What is Bearish Price Discovery
Bearish Price Discovery occurs when price trades below the lower standard deviation of a VWAP. This shows that sellers are accepting lower prices and that value may be developing beneath the prior area of balance. The market is moving out of equilibrium as participants test lower prices to find new fair value.
Session Volume Profile:
🔹Why this feature is included:
The Session Volume Profile is included to show where trading activity occurred within each session. It visually represents the volume traded at each price, helping to identify where market participants considered value to be. This ties directly to Auction Market Theory, which views markets as auctions seeking balance between buyers and sellers. The profile highlights those balance areas and shows where volume thins out, helping distinguish between value areas and areas of rejection.
🔹How is the Session Volume Profile calculated and displayed:
At the start of each selected session window, the indicator creates a new volume profile and tracks every bar in that session. For each candle, it saves the high, low, open, close, volume, and time. When the HD (High Definition) setting is enabled, and your chart is between the 1-minute and 30-minute timeframes (recommended), the indicator requests lower-timeframe data and feeds the profile with 1-minute candlesticks for more detail. The running session high and low define the vertical bounds of the volume profile. That span is split into a fixed number of rows. Each row represents a price slice. For every bar and every price row, the indicator checks whether the bar’s high-low range touches that row. If it does, it adds part of the bar’s volume to that row. The allocation uses a step-to-bar-size ratio, so that narrow bars do not overload a tall row and tall bars contribute proportionally across all rows they cross. If the bar closes above its open, that row’s “up” volume bucket is incremented. If it closes below its open, the “down” bucket is incremented. After all bars are processed, the row with the highest total becomes the Point of Control (POC). Starting from that row, the indicator expands upward and downward, adding adjacent rows until the cumulative total reaches your Value Area percentage. The upper boundary is Value Area High (VAH), and the lower boundary is Value Area Low (VAL).
For rendering, each price row becomes a horizontal box drawn from the session start time to a length proportional to that row’s volume versus the session’s maximum row volume. If you choose “Up / Down” volume, the row is split into two adjoining boxes that show the up and down portions. If you choose “Total,” a single box is drawn to the total length. If you choose “Delta,” the length reflects the absolute difference between up and down. The POC is drawn as a line across the row midpoint. VAH and VAL are drawn at the exact prices of the top and bottom value rows. While a session is open the profile keeps updating as new bars form. When the session ends, the script fixes its start and end and stops changing that profile. To avoid any issues with drawing limits, the indicator only renders the two most recent session volume profiles.
Settings:
🔹Enabled
Turns the Session Volume Profile on or off. When disabled, no session profiles, lines, or volume boxes are displayed.
🔹HD
Stands for High Definition. When enabled, the indicator requests data from the 1-minute timeframe to build a smoother, more detailed volume profile. This produces finer row distribution and more accurate POC, VAH, and VAL positioning, especially on higher chart timeframes.
🔹POC Line
Toggles the visibility of the Point of Control line. The POC represents the price level with the highest traded volume in the session. It’s drawn horizontally across the chart at that price, and its color can be customized in settings.
🔹VAH
Controls the display of the Value Area High line. The VAH is the top boundary of the range that contains the specified percentage of total traded volume (default 70%). It marks where volume starts to thin out above fair value. Users can turn it on or off and customize its color.
🔹VAL
Controls the display of the Value Area Low line. The VAL is the lower boundary of the value area and marks where volume thins out below fair value. Its visibility and color can also be customized.
🔹Session
This setting allows users to define the start and end time of the trading session used to calculate the session volume profile. Only bars within this time window are included in the volume profile. When a session ends, the volume profile locks, and a new one begins automatically when the next session begins based on the user’s input.
🔹Volume
Controls how the histogram rows are displayed:
Up/Down: Splits each price row into two parts: one for bullish candles (Up volume) and one for bearish candles (Down volume). This helps visualize buying versus selling pressure at each price.
Total: Combines both Up and Down volume into a single-colored bar for each price level. Since direction isn’t separated, this view focuses purely on where trading activity was concentrated, regardless of which side was in control. A tall bar means strong participation and interest at that price.
Delta: Displays the difference between up and down volume (Up/Down) for each row, highlighting which side controlled that price area.
🔹Value Area Volume
The Value Area Volume setting defines how much of the total session volume is considered the “value area.” By default, it’s 70%, meaning the indicator finds the price range where 70% of all trading took place during that session. This area is where buyers and sellers agreed the most on price, also known as the fair value zone.
If you increase the percentage (for example, to 80%), the value area becomes wider and includes more of the session’s trading range. Lowering it (for example, to 60%) makes it narrower, focusing only on the prices with the heaviest activity.
🔹Row Size
The Row Size controls how detailed the volume profile looks. It decides how many price levels (rows) the profile is divided into. Smaller values make the profile smoother and easier to read but less precise. Larger values add more detail and show exactly where volume clustered, but they can make the profile look denser.
The maximum value is 450 rows, and the minimum value is 5 rows. Higher values (especially above 200) can make the volume profile appear more detailed but may also cause performance issues or partial rendering on TradingView charts due to the platform’s drawing object limits. For most users, values between 50–150 give a good balance between clarity and performance.
25 Rows vs. 200 Rows:
Composite Volume Profile:
The Composite Volume Profile shows how volume is distributed across a larger selected range instead of just one session. It helps traders see where the most trading activity has taken place over multiple days. This gives a picture of long-term balance areas and important price zones that have repeatedly attracted buyers and sellers.
The Composite Profile uses the same base logic and visual settings as the Session Volume Profile, including POC Line, VAH, VAL, Volume Type, Value Area Volume, Row Size, and Colors. Any customization applied to those settings also affects the Composite Profile, ensuring a consistent appearance across both features.
🔹Session Count Setting:
This setting controls how many past sessions are merged into one composite volume profile. For example, if the Session Count is set to 5, and each session represents one trading day, the profile combines data from the last 5 trading days. A “session” refers to the time window defined in the Session Volume Profile settings.
🔹How is the Composite Volume Profile used?
In Auction Market Theory, markets move through phases of balance and imbalance as traders agree on value before moving to explore new ones. The Composite Volume Profile shows where that long-term balance has formed. Large, wide areas on the profile indicate zones where multiple sessions agreed on value. Thin areas show prices that were quickly rejected, where less time and volume were traded. Combining short-term session profiles into a composite helps identify when the market is holding near established value or entering new price discovery, confirming transitions between balance and price discovery.
Low Volume Zones:
🔹What are Low Volume Zones?
Low Volume Zones (LVZs) are price areas where trading activity was minimal compared to surrounding levels. On a volume profile, they appear as thin “valleys” between two high-volume “peaks.” These valleys show where the market moved too quickly for significant two-way trade to occur. In Auction Market Theory, they represent inefficient areas, meaning the market didn’t find fair value, so price either skipped through or rejected those levels.
🔹How are Low Volume Zones found?
The indicator identifies Low Volume Zones (LVZs) directly from Session Volume Profiles (SVPs) by analyzing the shape of its volume distribution. Each SVP is built from a series of horizontal rows, where each row represents the total traded volume within a narrow price range. The longer the row, the higher the trading activity at that price.
The indicator first locates the two largest high-volume peaks on the profile. These peaks represent the strongest areas of market activity. Once these two main peaks are found, the indicator looks on both sides of each peak for the lowest-volume row in the surrounding area. Those small-volume dips define the boundaries of the Low Volume Zones.
Each high-volume peak can therefore generate two LVZs (one above and one below it), resulting in a maximum of four Low Volume Zones per volume profile. If two LVZs overlap or share the same price range, they are automatically merged into a single larger zone, which may reduce the total count to three or fewer.
🔹How are Low Volume Zones used?
Low Volume Zones (LVZs) mark areas where the market previously traded with little participation. In Auction Market Theory, these zones represent inefficient price areas where buyers and sellers failed to agree on value. When price returns to an LVZ, it may act as an area where price tends to react differently due to lower previous trading activity. If the market still sees that area as unfair, price will reject it and reverse quickly. If the market now accepts that price level, volume builds and price moves through it smoothly as the auction seeks new balance. Traders use LVZs to identify where price may react sharply or move quickly through thin areas. When price approaches a zone from above or below, it signals potential rejection or continuation.
🔹LVZ Breaks and Retests
The indicator automatically tracks how price interacts with every detected LVZ.
A Break occurs when price fully moves through the entire LVZ and closes past it. When this happens, the indicator plots a small blue triangle.
A Retest occurs when price touches an LVZ and reverses away, showing rejection. When price comes down to a level, taps it, and continues up, it’s considered a bullish retest, and a small green triangle is plotted. When price comes up to a level, taps it, and continues down, it’s considered a bearish retest, and a small red triangle is plotted.
🔹LVZ Settings
Enabled:
Toggles LVZ detection and visualization on or off.
Realtime:
Allows LVZs to form dynamically as the current session develops, updating live as volume builds or thins out. When disabled, zones only appear once the session closes.
Please note: When this setting is enabled, zones may update or shift while the current session is still forming. Because the Session Volume Profile is continuously recalculating with new data, both the volume distribution and detected zones can change until the session closes.
Row Pivot Length:
Controls how far above and below each price row the indicator looks when identifying the highest and lowest volume points that define each Low Volume Zone. Larger values make the indicator compare a wider range of rows, while smaller values keep the analysis closer to each row’s immediate area.
Last SVPs:
Defines how many recent Session Volume Profiles are used for LVZs. For example, setting it to 3 limits LVZ detection to the last three sessions only.
Retests and Breaks:
Enables or disables the display of the retest and break markers described above.
Checklist:
The Checklist is a manual on-chart dashboard that allows traders to keep track of specific market conditions before entering a trade. Each checklist item can be toggled on or off in the indicator’s settings. When enabled, a checkmark emoji appears next to that item on the dashboard. When disabled, an X emoji appears next to that item.
This feature is designed to help traders visually confirm important steps in their process, such as reviewing trend direction, VWAP alignment, or session context. The checklist can also be repositioned anywhere on the chart using the “Location” setting for better visibility and layout preference.
Watermark:
The Watermark feature displays key chart information directly in the background, including the current ticker symbol, selected timeframe, and date. The watermark’s size, color, and transparency can be adjusted in the settings.
UNIQUENESS:
The VWAP Wave System Toolkit is unique because it brings every part of Auction Market Theory to the chart. It shows how value builds and shifts by combining Initial Balance levels, multi-timeframe VWAPs, and volume profiles. The indicator automatically marks low-volume zones where the market moved too quickly, highlights breaks and retests, and tracks how price interacts with fair value across sessions, weeks, and months. Every feature works together to give a simple view of balance, imbalance, and value development as the auction unfolds.
Liquidity Sentiment Profile [LuxAlgo]The Liquidity Sentiment Profile is an advanced charting tool that measures by combining PRICE and VOLUME data over specified anchored periods and highlights within a sequence of profiles the distribution of the liquidity and the market sentiment at specific price levels.
The Liquidity Sentiment Profile allows traders to reveal significant price levels, dominant market sentiment, support and resistance levels, supply and demand zones, liquidity availability levels, liquidity gaps, consolidation zones, and more based on price and volume data.
Liquidity refers to the availability of orders at specific price levels in the market, allowing transactions to occur smoothly.
🔶 USAGE
A Liquidity Sentiment Profile is a combination of a liquidity and a sentiment profile, where the right part of the profile displays the distribution of the traded activity at different price levels and the left part displays the market sentiment at those price levels.
The Liquidity Sentiment Profiles are visualized with different colors, where each color has a different meaning.
The Liquidity Sentiment Profiles aim to present Value Areas based on the significance of price levels, thus allowing users to identify value areas that can be formed more than once within the range of a single profile.
Level of Significance Line - displays the changes in the price levels with the highest traded activity (developing POC)
🔶 SETTINGS
The script takes into account user-defined parameters and plots the profiles, where detailed usage for each user-defined input parameter in indicator settings is provided with the related input's tooltip.

Volume/Market ProfileVolume/Market Profile is a 2 in 1 Volume Profile and Market Profile Indicator.
This indicator is my own calculations for compiling a volume profile and market profile.
The profile is progressively calculated live as the chart develops.
I have made use of both Boxes AND Lines to allow me to display a finer granularity profile by displaying up to twice the max amount of lines allowed in tradingview.
I have spent a lot of time to make sure the values are getting appended exactly as intended so that I can assure this profile is operating as precisely as possible within the limitations of the data available.
To make my calculations easier to use in other places, I have made my volume profile a function that can be extracted and used whenever you need values from a volume profile.
Feel free to read through the script if you don't understand how this profile is developed. I have made a commentary of my volume profile function to help you understand what exactly happens to compile the profiles.
As mentioned before, This indicator doubles as a market profile. To view both at the same time you will need to add the indicator on your chart twice.
I have built in comprehensive customizations to allow you to display your profiles however fits your needs.
Timeframe: The aggregation period for profiles, to see a 1 week profile, change the timeframe to 1 week.
Note: You can add custom timeframes by adding a custom timeframe in your chart timeframe dropdown menu. When you add timeframes in this area, they appear as options within indicators with the timeframe input.
Sensitivity: Allows for greater or less granularity changes. The calculation method for granularity automatically changes depending on the range of your chart.
Note: Multiply this value by 100 and that will be the max range (in ticks) of your price before the indicator automatically adjusts to make the profile less granular. (ex. If price ranges $1, and 1 tick is $0.01, granularity will be 0.01 with a sensitivity of 1+)
Value Area %: % of total volume to display as the value zone. (_% of total profile values are contained within the value zone)
Calculate as Market Profile: Uses a 1 Instead of the candle volume, to display a Market Profile. (If selected POC -> TPOC)
Display Size: Sets the # of bars from the profile axis to the profile's max value. If set negative, profile will be displayed left of axis, if positive, profile will be displayed to the right of the axis.
Display Offset: Sets the # of bars in front(or behind) the current chart bar to set the axis of the profile. If negative, the axis will be to the left of the current chart bar, if positive the axis will be right of the current chart bar.
Display Historical POC/VAH/VAL: Choose to display historical poc,vah,val lines.
Colors: I'm not explaining colors.

Realtime 5D Profile [LucF]█ OVERVIEW
This indicator displays a realtime profile that can be configured to visualize five dimensions: volume, price, time, activity and age. For each price level in a bar or timeframe, you can display total or delta volume or ticks. The tick count measures activity on a level. The thickness of each level's line indicates its age, which helps you identify the most recent levels.
█ WARNING
The indicator only works in real time. Contrary to TradingView's line of volume profile indicators , it does not show anything on historical bars or closed markets, and it cannot display volume information if none exists for the data feed the chart is using. A realtime indicator such as this one only displays information accumulated while it is running on a chart. The information it calculates cannot be saved on charts, nor can it be recalculated from historical bars. If you refresh the chart, or the script must re-execute for some reason, as when you change inputs, the accumulated information will be lost.
Because "Realtime 5D Profile" requires time to accumulate information on the chart, it will be most useful to traders working on small timeframes who trade only one instrument and do not frequently change their chart's symbol or timeframe. Traders working on higher timeframes or constantly changing charts will be better served by TradingView's volume profiles. Before using this indicator, please see the "Limitations" section further down for other important information.
█ HOW TO USE IT
Load the indicator on an active chart (see here if you don't know how).
The default configuration displays:
• A double-sided volume profile showing at what price levels activity has occurred.
• The left side shows "down" volume, the right side shows "up" volume.
• The value corresponding to each level is displayed.
• The width of lines reflects their relative value.
• The thickness of lines reflects their age. Four thicknesses are used, with the thicker lines being the most recent.
• The total value of down/up values for the profile appears at the top.
To understand how to use profiles in your trading, please research the subject. Searches on "volume profile" or "market profile" will yield many useful results. I provide you with tools — I do not teach trading. To understand more about this indicator, read on. If you choose not to do so, please don't ask me to answer questions that are already answered here, nor to make videos; I don't.
█ CONCEPTS
Delta calculations
Volume is slotted in up or down slots depending on whether the price of each new chart update is higher or lower than the previous update's price. When price does not move between chart updates, the last known direction is used. In a perfect world, Pine scripts would have access to bid and ask levels, as this would allow us to know for sure if market orders are being filled on upticks (at the ask) or downticks (at the bid). Comparing the price of successive chart updates provides the most precise way to calculate volume delta on TradingView, but it is still a compromise. Order books are in constant movement; in some cases, order cancellations can cause sudden movements of both the bid and ask levels such that the next chart update can occur on an uptick at a lower price than the previous one (or vice versa). While this update's volume should be slotted in the up slot because a buy market order was filled, it will erroneously be slotted in the down slot because the price of the chart's update is lower than that of the previous one. Luckily, these conditions are relatively rare, so they should not adversely affect calculations.
Levels
A profile is a tool that displays information organized by price levels. You can select the maximum quantity of levels this indicator displays by using the script's "Levels" input. If the profile's height is small enough for level increments to be less than the symbol's tick size, a smaller quantity of levels is used until the profile's height grows sufficiently to allow your specified quantity of levels to be displayed. The exact position of levels is not tethered to the symbol's tick increments. Activity for one level is that which happens on either side of the level, halfway between its higher or lower levels. The lowest/highest levels in the profile thus appear higher/lower than the profile's low/high limits, which are determined by the lowest/highest points reached by price during the profile's life.
Level Values and Length
The profile's vertical structure is dynamic. As the profile's height changes with the price range, it is rebalanced and the price points of its levels may be recalculated. When this happens, past updates will be redistributed among the new profile's levels, and the level values may thus change. The new levels where updates are slotted will of course always be near past ones, but keep this fluidity in mind when watching level values evolve.
The profile's horizontal structure is also dynamic. The maximum length of level lines is controlled by the "Maximum line length" input value. This maximum length is always used for the largest level value in the profile, and the length of other levels is determined by their value relative to that maximum.
Updates vs Ticks
Strictly speaking, a tick is the record of a transaction between two parties. On TradingView, these are detected on seconds charts. On other charts, ticks are aggregated to form a chart update . I use the broader "update" term when it names both events. Note that, confusingly, tick is also used to name an instrument's minimal price increment.
Volume Quality
If you use volume, it's important to understand its nature and quality, as it varies with sectors and instruments. My Volume X-ray indicator is one way you can appraise the quality of an instrument's intraday volume.
█ FEATURES
Double-Sided Profiles
When you choose one of the first two configuration selections in the "Configuration" field's dropdown menu, you are asking the indicator to display a double-sided profile, i.e., where the down values appear on the left and the up ones on the right. In this mode, the formatting options in the top section of inputs apply to both sides of the profile.
Single-Sided Profiles
The six other selections down the "Configuration" field's dropdown menu select single-sided profiles, where one side aggregates the up/down values for either volume or ticks. In this mode, the formatting options in the top section of inputs apply to the left profile. The ones in the following "Right format" section apply to the right profile.
Calculation Mode
The "Calculation" input field allows the selection of one of two modes which applies to single-sided profiles only. Values can represent the simple total of volume or ticks at each level, or their delta. The mode has no effect when a double-sided profile is used because then, the total is represented by the sum of the left and right sides. Note that when totals are selected, all levels appear in the up color.
Age
The age of each level is always displayed as one of four line thicknesses. Thicker lines are used for the youngest levels. The age of levels is determined by averaging the times of the updates composing that level. When viewing double-sided profiles, the age of each side is calculated independently, which entails you can have a down level on the left side of the profile appear thinner than its corresponding up side level line on the right side because the updates composing the up side are more recent. When calculating the age of single-sided profiles, the age of the up/down values aggregated to calculate the side are averaged. Since they may be different, the averaged level ages will not be as responsive as when using a double-sided profile configuration, where the age of levels on each side is calculated independently and follows price action more closely. Moreover, when displaying two single-sided profiles (volume on one side and ticks on the other), the age of both sides will match because they are calculated from the same realtime updates.
Profile Resets
The profile can reset on timeframes or trend changes. The usual timeframe selections are available, including the chart's, in which case the profile will reset on each new chart bar. One of two trend detection logics can be used: Supertrend or the one used by LazyBear in his Weis Wave indicator . Settings for the trend logics are in the bottommost section of the inputs, where you can also control the display of trend changes and states. Note that the "Timeframe" field's setting also applies to the trend detection mechanism. Whatever the timeframe used for trend detection, its logic will not repaint.
Format
Formatting a profile for charts is often a challenge for traders, and this one is no exception. Varying zoom factors on your chart and the frequency of profile resets will require different profile formats. You can achieve a reasonable variety of effects by playing with the following input fields:
• "Resets on" controls how frequently new profiles are drawn. Spacing out profiles between bars can help make them more usable.
• "Levels" determines the maximum quantity of levels displayed.
• "Offset" allows you to shift the profile horizontally.
• "Profile size" affects the global size of the profile.
• Another "Size" field provides control over the size of the totals displayed above the profile.
• "Maximum line length" controls how far away from the center of the bar the lines will stretch left and right.
Colors
The color and brightness of levels and totals always allows you to determine the winning side between up and down values. On double-sided profiles, each side is always of one color, since the left side is down values and the right side, up values. However, the losing side is colored with half its brightness, so the emphasis is put on the winning side. When there is no winner, the toned-down version of each color is used for both sides. Single-sided profiles use the up and down colors in full brightness on the same side. Which one is used reflects the winning side.
Candles
The indicator can color candle bodies and borders independently. If you choose to do so, you may want to disable the chart's bars by using the eye icon near the symbol's name.
Tooltips
A tooltip showing the value of each level is available. If they do not appear when hovering over levels, select the indicator by clicking on its chart name. This should get the tooltips working.
Data Window
As usual, I provide key values in the Data Window, so you can track them. If you compare total realtime volumes for the profile and the built-in "Volume" indicator, you may see variations at some points. They are due to the different mechanisms running each program. In my experience, the values from the built-in don't always update as often as those of the profile, but they eventually catch up.
█ LIMITATIONS
• The levels do not appear exactly at the position they are calculated. They are positioned slightly lower than their actual price levels.
• Drawing a 20-level double-sided profile with totals requires 42 labels. The script will only display the last 500 labels,
so the number of levels you choose affects how many past profiles will remain visible.
• The script is quite taxing, which will sometimes make the chart's tab less responsive.
• When you first load the indicator on a chart, it will begin calculating from that moment; it will not take into account prior chart activity.
• If you let the script run long enough when using profile reset criteria that make profiles last for a long time, the script will eventually run out of memory,
as it will be tracking unmanageable amounts of chart updates. I don't know the exact quantity of updates that will cause this,
but the script can handle upwards of 60K updates per profile, which should last 1D except on the most active markets. You can follow the number of updates in the Data Window.
• The indicator's nature makes it more useful at very small timeframes, typically in the sub 15min realm.
• The Weis Wave trend detection used here has nothing to do with how David Weis detects trend changes.
LazyBear's version was a port of a port, so we are a few generations removed from the Weis technique, which uses reversals by a price unit.
I believe the version used here is useful nonetheless because it complements Supertrend rather well.
█ NOTES
The aggregated view that volume and tick profiles calculate for traders is a good example of one of the most useful things software can do for traders: look at things from a methodical, mathematical perspective, and present results in a meaningful way. Profiles are powerful because, if the volume data they use is of good enough quality, they tell us what levels are important for traders, regardless of the nature or rationality of the methods traders have used to determine those levels. Profiles don't care whether traders use the news, fundamentals, Fib numbers, pivots, or the phases of the moon to find "their" levels. They don't attempt to forecast or explain markets. They show us real stuff containing zero uncertainty, i.e., what HAS happened. I like this.
The indicator's "VPAA" chart name represents four of the five dimensions the indicator displays: volume, price, activity and age. The time dimension is implied by the fact it's a profile — and I couldn't find a proper place for a "T" in there )
I have not included alerts in the script. I may do so in the future.
For the moment, I have no plans to write a profile indicator that works on historical bars. TradingView's volume profiles already do that, and they run much faster than Pine versions could, so I don't see the point in spending efforts on a poor ersatz.
For Pine Coders
• The script uses labels that draw varying quantities of characters to break the limitation constraining other Pine plots/lines to bar boundaries.
• The code's structure was optimized for performance. When it was feasible, global arrays, "input" and other variables were used from functions,
sacrificing function readability and portability for speed. Code was also repeated in some places, to avoid the overhead of frequent function calls in high-traffic areas.
• I wrote my script using the revised recommendations in the Style Guide from the Pine v5 User Manual.
█ THANKS
• To Duyck for his function that sorts an array while keeping it in synch with another array.
The `sortTwoArrays()` function in my script is derived from the Pine Wizard 's code.
• To the one and only Maestro, RicardoSantos , the creative volcano who worked hard to write a function to produce fixed-width, figure space-padded numeric values.
A change in design made the function unnecessary in this script, but I am grateful to you nonetheless.
• To midtownskr8guy , another Pine Wizard who is also a wizard with colors. I use the colors from his Pine Color Magic and Chart Theme Simulator constantly.
• Finally, thanks to users of my earlier "Delta Volume" scripts. Comments and discussions with them encouraged me to persist in figuring out how to achieve what this indicator does.
Falcon - Volume & Level reaction Falcon - Volume & Level Reaction
Our indicator, Falcon - Volume & Level Reaction, is designed to provide traders with comprehensive insights into price behavior through the calculation of horizontal volume profiles. By analyzing these profiles, the indicator identifies key levels and assesses price reactions, offering valuable trading signals.
---
# Concept
The Falcon - Volume & Level Reaction indicator is built to help traders identify and capitalize on key market levels by analyzing volume profiles and price behavior. This indicator enhances trading strategies by providing clear signals based on robust analysis, allowing traders to make informed decisions and improve their trading outcomes.
---
# Functions
1. Volume Profile Calculation
- Profile Period: Calculates horizontal volume profiles over a specified number of bars.
- Peak Volumes: Identifies peak volume levels based on the sensitivity parameter.
2. Price Behavior Analysis
- Primary Check: Determines if bars close above or below the peak level.
- Secondary Checks:
- Volume Decrease: Confirms a decrease in volume after the price touches the level.
- Volatility Check: Ensures bars do not exceed the average ATR range.
3. Signal Generation
- Combined Signals: The primary check generates initial long/short signals, while secondary checks strengthen these signals.
- Real-time Alerts: Provides "Potential" short or long signals based on the current candle's closure relative to the level.
4. Comprehensive Analysis: Helps identify multiple factors that validate level protection and potential price reversals.
---
# Description of Checks
1. Primary Check: Price Closure
- This check assesses whether the bars close above or below the identified peak volume levels. If the price closes above the level, it generates a long signal; if it closes below, it generates a short signal. This check is fundamental as it directly indicates the price's interaction with significant volume levels.
2. Secondary Check 1: Volume Decrease
- After the price touches a peak volume level, this check verifies if there is a subsequent decrease in trading volume. A decrease in volume after touching the level suggests reduced market interest at that price, which can indicate potential reversals or continuations based on the overall market context.
3. Secondary Check 2: Volatility Check
- This check ensures that the price bars do not exceed the average ATR range after touching the peak volume level. Lower volatility near key levels indicates stability and strengthens the signal generated by the primary check, confirming the market's reaction to these levels.
---
# How to Use the Indicator
1. Set Parameters: Define volume profile parameters such as profile period, number of peaks, and level sensitivity.
2. Analyze the Chart: Observe the peak volume levels displayed on the chart.
3. Receive Signals: Follow the buy or sell signals that appear when the price touches the level and the primary and secondary checks are met.
4. Respond to Alerts: When a "Potential" long or short signal appears, evaluate the closure of the current candle relative to the level to make a trading decision.

[FXAN] 77 Cygni Algorithm (Swing Trading)⚜️ FXAN CYGNI INDICATORS ORIGINALITY
Originality comes from proprietary formula we use to measure the relationship between Volume and Price Volatility in relation to overall current market positioning in developing Volume Profile and multiple custom period Volume Profiles. We combine that with our own approach to measure price velocity in correlation to average daily/weekly/monthly ranges of the given market.
The relationship between current volume and price volatility gives us information about how much the volume that is currently coming into the market affects the price movement (volatility) and which side is more dominant/involved in the market (Buyers/Sellers). We call this the "Volume Impact" factor.
This information is then compared in relation to the overall current market positioning in developing Volume Profile and Multiple custom period Volume Profiles. We have created a rating system based on current price positioning in relation to the Volume Profile. Volume profile consists of different volume nodes, high volume nodes where we consider market interest to be high (a lot of transactions - High Volume) and low volume nodes where we consider market interest to be low (not a lot of transactions - Low Volume). We call this the current "Market Interest" factor.
We combine this information with our own approach to measure price velocity in correlation to the higher-timeframe price ranges. Calculation is done by measuring current ranges of market movement in correlation to average daily/weekly/monthly ranges. We call this "Price Velocity" factor.
This approach was applied to develop key components of our Tradingview Indicators, we've simplified some of the calculations and made them easy to use by programming them to display buying/selling volume pressure with colors.
In addition to our own proprietary formulas and criterias to measure volume impact on price, we've also used an array of indicators that measure the percentage change in volume over custom specified periods of time, including custom period ranged Volume Profile, Developing VA, Accumulation/Distribution (A/D Line), Volume Rate of Change (VROC), Volume Price Trend (VPT) - all of them with of course fine-tuned settings to fit the purpose in the overall calculation.
Reasons for multiple indicator use:
Custom period ranged Volume Profiles: To determine current interest of market participants. Used for "Market Interest"
Developing VA: To determine current fair price of the market (value area). Used for "Market Interest".
Accumulation/Distribution (A/D Line): Helping to gauge the strength of buying and selling pressure. Used for "Volume Impact"
Volume Rate of Change (VROC): To give us information about percentage change in volume. Used for "Volume Impact"
Volume Price Trend (VPT): To help identify potential trends. Used for "Volume Impact".
Average True Range (ATR): Used for measuring volatility. Used for "Volume Impact" and "Price Velocity".
Average Daily Range (ADR): Used for measuring average market price movement. Used for "Price Velocity".
How it all works together:
"Volume Impact" factor tells us the influence of incoming market volume on price movement. This information alongside the overall market positioning information derived from "Market Interest" factor combined with information about speed and direction relative to higher-timeframe price ranges frin "Price Velocity.
This is the basis of our proprietary developed Volume Dynamics analysis approach
"Volume Impact" x "Market Interest" x "Price Velocity"
Combining this factors together gives a good overall understanding of which side is currently more involved in the market to gauge the direction ("Volume Impact"), where the market is currently positioned to gauge the context ("Market Interest") and what the current market's momentum to improve the timing of our trades ("Price Velocity"). This increases our probabilities for successful trades, executed with good timing.
To simplify - our indicators will always analyze the volume behind every price movement and rate those movements based on the relationship between movement distance and volume behind it through an array of criterias and rate them.
Colors displayed by the indicators will be a result of that, suggesting which side of the market (Buyers or sellers) is currently more involved in the market, aiming to increase the probabilities for profitable trades. With the help of our indicators you have deep volume analysis behind price movements done without looking at anything else then indicator components.
🔷 OVERVIEW
Cygni 77 Algorithm is a TradingView indicator designed to help determine higher timeframe market context and long-term market sentiment and trends. It analyzes the underlying volume behind market movements and colors the candles with the help of formulas that include technical analysis and market price action. It caters to traders looking for swing trading setups or additional perspectives for day trading sentiment.
🔷 KEY FEATURES
▊ Candle Coloring
▊ Dynamic Support & Resistance Lines
▊ Dots | Above and below the candles
▊ Colored Bar | on the bottom of the chart
🔷 HOW DOES IT WORK?
□ Candle colors will indicate the general market trend from the technical analysis perspective. The calculation for this component uses price action concepts and segments from technical analysis, for example, candle/price structural breaks. Volume is not used for calculations of this component.
□ Dynamic Support & Resistance Lines indicate the current market structure from the technical analysis perspective. The calculation uses pure price action and structural analysis of the current market movements.
□ Candle Dots show what are the mid-term volume dynamics in the market by referencing the daily average price weighted by volume with the periods ranging from days to weeks. Candle Dots suggest what is the likely direction of the market's trend from the mid-term perspective. If the market is bullish, you’ll see the green dots printed below the candles, and if the market is bearish, the dots will color red and print above the candles.
□ Colored Bar analyzes long-term volume dynamics and the market's price action for the past three to six weeks, referencing average price weighted by volume. This makes it much less sensitive than the Candle Dots, so the colors won't change that often. If the market is bullish, you’ll see the green bars, and if the market is bearish, the bars will color red.
🔷 HOW TO USE IT?
□ In general, we look for areas where all components are in sync. These are valid trading signals (refer to the usage example below).
□ If all components are not in sync, we should look for at least two of them to be in sync, while one of them must be the Colored Bar.
□ Candle Colors: Looking for longs when the candles are green and looking for shorts when the colors are red
□ Dynamic Support & Resistance Lines: Used for placing entries and stop-loss limits. Using retest of the line for entry and placing the stop-loss beyond it. Or if we're entering based on other components, we can use the line to place the stop-loss beyond it.
□ Candle Dots: Looking to trade in the direction of the color. If the market is bullish, you’ll see the green dots, and if the market is bearish, the dots will color red.
□ Colored Bar: Most important component of this indicator, we favor trading in the direction suggested by this component. Additional confirmation of other components is a bonus. Colors here don't change that often, but once they do - it usually signals a long-term trend shift. Green color suggests a bullish market, trading long. Red color suggests bearish market, trading short.
🔷 COMBINING THE COMPONENTS
Each component of the indicator serves its own purpose and analyzes the market from its own perspective and with its own custom settings and formulas. The calculation of the individual component is done independently from the calculation of the other components. Once all of them align, we can execute trades with an edge as it signals that different aspects of volume and price analysis line up for the trading opportunity.
-Candle Colors performs technical analysis for you by displaying the colors of a favorable market direction based on the market's current technical structure.
- Dynamic Support & Resistance Lines are used for placing your entry/exit limit orders.
-Candle Dots are used to determine the favorable direction of the market based on Daily Volume Dynamics, with custom timeframe settings ranging from a couple of days to a couple of weeks.
-The Colored Bar is used to gauge the overall favorable trading direction based on Daily Volume Dynamics with custom timeframe settings ranging from 3 to 6 weeks.
It's important to combine the components to increase the probability of success - here's how you should look for a trade:
1. Assess the current most favorable market direction by referencing the Colored Bar. Look for longs if it’s green and for shorts if it’s red
2. Look for the Candle Dots to align with the Colored Bar, look for longs if it’s green and for shorts if it’s red
3. Look for the Candle Colors to align with the Colored Bar. Look for longs if it’s green and for shorts if it’s red
4. Place your SL level beyond the currently developing Support/Resistance line to protect your positions and look for exits once the colors change.
A valid example of the trade would be:
- Colored Bar is green, indicating the favorable trading directions is long
- Candle Dots are green, indicating the favorable trading directions is long
- Candle Colors are green, indicating the market structure is favorable to enter your positions
📊 USAGE EXAMPLE
Money Flow Profile [LuxAlgo]The Money Flow Profile is a charting tool that measures the traded volume or the money flow at all price levels on the market over a specified time period and highlights the relationship between the price of a given asset and the willingness of traders to either buy or sell it, allowing traders to reveal dominant and/or significant price levels and to analyze the trading activity of a particular user-selected range.
This tool combines a volume/money flow profile, a sentiment profile, and price levels, where the right side of the profile highlights the distribution of the traded activity/money flow at different price levels, the left side of the profile highlights the market sentiment at those price levels, and in the middle the price levels.
🔶 USAGE
A volume/money flow profile is an advanced charting tool that displays the traded volume/money flow at different price levels over a specific period. It helps traders visualize where the majority of trading activity/money flow has occurred.
A sentiment profile is a difference between buy and sell volume/money flow aiming to highlight the sentiment/dominance at specific price levels.
Each row of the profile presents figures on volume and money flow specific to price levels.
High volume/money flow nodes indicate areas of high activity and are likely to act as support or resistance in the future. They attract price and try to hold it there. Conversely, low-volume nodes are areas with low trading activity, that are less subject to get revisited by the price. The market often bounces right over these levels, not staying for long. The "Profile Heatmap" option of the script helps to better emphasize the trading activity within each areas.
By measuring the traded activity at each price level the script presents an ability to highlight the consolidation zones, in other words, highlights accumulation and distribution zones. When the price moves toward one end of the consolidation and volume pick up, it can foreshadow a potential breakout.
Level of Significance, Point of Control, Highest Sentiment Zone, and Profile Price levels are some of the other profile-related options available with the script.
🔶 SETTINGS
The script takes into account user-defined parameters and plots the profiles, where detailed usage for each user-defined input parameter in indicator settings is provided with the related input's tooltip.
🔹 Profile Generic Settings
Lookback Length / Fixed Range: Sets the lookback length.

[FXAN] 75 Cygni Algorithm (Day Trading)⚜️ FXAN CYGNI INDICATORS ORIGINALITY
Originality comes from proprietary formula we use to measure the relationship between Volume and Price Volatility in relation to overall current market positioning in developing Volume Profile and multiple custom period Volume Profiles. We combine that with our own approach to measure price velocity in correlation to average daily/weekly/monthly ranges of the given market.
The relationship between current volume and price volatility gives us information about how much the volume that is currently coming into the market affects the price movement (volatility) and which side is more dominant/involved in the market (Buyers/Sellers). We call this the " Volume Impact " factor.
This information is then compared in relation to overall current market positioning in developing Volume Profile and Multiple custom period Volume Profiles. We have created a rating system based on current price positioning in relation to the Volume Profile. Volume profile consists of different volume nodes, high volume nodes where we consider market interest to be high (a lot of transactions - High Volume) and low volume nodes where we consider market interest to be low (not a lot of transactions - Low Volume). We call this the current " Market Interest " factor.
We combine this information with our own approach to measure price velocity in correlation to the higher-timeframe price ranges. Calculation is done by measuring current ranges of market movement in correlation to average daily/weekly/monthly ranges. We call this " Price Velocity " factor.
This approach was applied to develop key components of our Tradingview Indicators, we've simplified some of the calculations and made them easy to use by programming them to display buying/selling volume pressure with colors.
In addition to our own proprietary formulas and criterias to measure volume impact on price, we've also used an array of indicators that measure the percentage change in volume over custom specified periods of time, including custom period ranged Volume Profile, Developing VA, Accumulation/Distribution (A/D Line), Volume Rate of Change (VROC), Volume Price Trend (VPT) - all of them with of course fine-tuned settings to fit the purpose in the overall calculation.
Reasons for multiple indicator use:
Custom period ranged Volume Profiles: To determine current interest of market participants. Used for " Market Interest "
Developing VA: To determine current fair price of the market (value area). Used for " Market Interest ".
Accumulation/Distribution (A/D Line): Helping to gauge the strength of buying and selling pressure. Used for " Volume Impact "
Volume Rate of Change (VROC): To give us information about percentage change in volume. Used for " Volume Impact "
Volume Price Trend (VPT): To help identify potential trends. Used for " Volume Impact ".
Average True Range (ATR): Used for measuring volatility. Used for " Volume Impact " and " Price Velocity" .
Average Daily Range (ADR): Used for measuring average market price movement. Used for " Price Velocity ".
How it all works together:
"Volume Impact" factor tells us the influence of incoming market volume on price movement. This information alongside the overall market positioning information derived from "Market Interest" factor combined with information about speed and direction relative to higher-timeframe price ranges frin "Price Velocity.
This is the basis of our proprietary developed Volume Dynamics analysis approach
"Volume Impact" x "Market Interest" x "Price Velocity"
Combining this factors together gives a good overall understanding of which side is currently more involved in the market to gauge the direction ("Volume Impact"), where the market is currently positioned to gauge the context ("Market Interest") and what the current market's momentum to improve the timing of our trades ("Price Velocity"). This increases our probabilities for successful trades, executed with good timing.
To simplify - our indicators will always analyze the volume behind every price movement and rate those movements based on the relationship between movement distance and volume behind it through an array of criterias and rate them.
Colors displayed by the indicators will be a result of that, suggesting which side of the market (Buyers or sellers) is currently more involved in the market, aiming to increase the probabilities for profitable trades. With the help of our indicators you have deep volume analysis behind price movements done without looking at anything else then indicator components.
🔷 OVERVIEW
Cygni 75 Algorithm is a TradingView indicator crafted to refine your market analysis and assist in identifying potential entry and exit points by analyzing the underlying volume behind market movements. It helps you determine the overall daily context of the market and its conditions/trends by offering a suite of features tailored to provide insights to traders across various market conditions.
🔷 KEY FEATURES
▊ Candle Coloring
▊ Deviation Bands
▊ Momentum Bar | on the bottom of the chart
▊ Area of Interest (AOI) | Yellow rectangle
🔷 HOW DOES IT WORK?
□ Candles will color in reference to the dominance of buyers or sellers based on underlying volume calculated by a proprietary formula. The green color indicates that buyers are in control, and the red color indicates the selling volume is dominating the market. To simplify, green means there's more buying - red means there's more selling.
□ Deviation bands are used to determine potential trade entries and exits, derived by average price weighted by volume.
□ Momentum Bar shows market momentum by analyzing the differences between multiple moving averages. Green is bullish; red is bearish. The colors will lighten up when momentum is strong, and once the market slows down, they will get darker.
□ Area of Interest (AOI) is used for contextual reference, derived from the previous day's market movements. They remain static throughout the current day.
🔷 HOW TO USE IT?
□ In general, we look for areas where all components are in sync. This are valid trading signals (refer to the usage example below).
□ Candle Colors: Looking for longs when the candles are green, and looking for shorts when the colors are red
□ Deviation Bands: Once we enter the trade, we can place the SL and TP levels at the closest bands.
□ Momentum Bar: Helps with the timing of the entry, looking to enter on light Green/Red colors. Longs when green and shorts when red.
□ Area Of Interest: Generally, we're expecting rotational conditions inside the area and breakouts above/below once the market price gets outside of it. Longs above the area and shorts below the area for breakouts.
🔷 COMBINING THE COMPONENTS
Each component of the indicator serves it's own purpose and analyzes the market from it's own perspective and with its own custom settings and formulas (one looks at trading direction from the perspective of the overall trend and the other looks at price volatility to measure momentum - different perspectives). The calculation of the individual component is done independently from other components. Once all of them align we're able to execute trades with edge as it signals that different aspects of volume and price analysis line up for the trading opportinity.
- Candle Colors are used for determining trading direction
- Deviation bands are used for determining TP/SL levels
- Momentum bar is used to for better timing of your entries/exits.
- AOI is used to help you determine potential market conditions
It's important to combine the components to increase the probability of success - here's how you should look for a trade:
1. Determine the direction you want to trade in with the help of Candle Colors
2. Assess the current market price in reference to AOI - look for longs if the price is above the AOI, shorts if the price is below AOI, and rotations if it's inside the AOI.
3. Wait for the right momentum to develop to improve the timing of the entry by using Momentum Bar.
4. Place TP/SL levels with the help of Deviation bands based on your risk appetite.
A valid example of the trade would be:
- Green Candle Colors (indicating longs)
- Market price is currently above the AOI or breaking the edge of AOI in the upside movement (indicating longs)
- Momentum Bar is Green (indicating long momentum)
- Placing SL to the closest Deviation Band below the price and TP to the closest Deviation Band above the price.

🔷 OVERVIEW
Cygni 71 Algorithm is a TradingView indicator designed for short-term trading (scalping) and enhancing the precision of your entries/exits based on a higher timeframe market context. It analyzes the underlying volume behind market movements and colors the candles with the help of the Heiken-Ashi methodology to provide a clearer perspective on the market's potential direction and intentions.
🔷 KEY FEATURES
▊ Candle Coloring
▊ Upper Colored Bar
▊ Lower Colored Bar
🔷 HOW DOES IT WORK?
□ Candles will color in reference to the Heiken ashi "average bar" methodology, which uses a modified formula based on two-period averages. This way, you can observe the normal candlesticks with less noise as colors will suggest the most likely direction where the market might be heading.
□ Upper Colored Bar analyzes daily volume dynamics in the market's price action by referencing the daily average price weighted by volume. If the market is bullish, you’ll see the green bars, and if the market is bearish, the bars will color red.
□ Lower Colored Bar analyzes volume dynamics and the market's price action every few second and minute intervals by referencing average price weighted by volume. This makes it much more sensitive than the Upper Colored Bar. If the market is bullish, you’ll see the green bars, and if the market is bearish, the bars will color red.
🔷 HOW TO USE IT?
□ In general, we look for areas where all components are in sync. These are valid trading signals (refer to the usage example below).
□ If all components are not in sync, we should look for at least two of them to be in sync while one of them must be Upper Colored Bar.
□ Candle Colors: Looking for longs when the candles are green and looking for shorts when the colors are red
□ Upper Colored Bar: The most important component of this indicator is that we favor trading in the direction suggested by this component. Additional confirmation of other components is a bonus. The green color suggests a bullish market, trading long. Red color suggests bearish market, trading short.
□ Lower Colored Bar: This should not be used on its own but always combined with at least one of the other components due to its sensitivity. Colors are indicating longs when green and shorts when red.
🔷 COMBINING THE COMPONENTS
Each component of the indicator serves it's own purpose and analyzes the market from it's own perspective and with its own custom settings and formulas. The calculation of the individual component is done independently from other components. Once all of them align, we're able to execute trades with an edge as it signals that different aspects of volume and price analysis line up for the trading opportunity.
- Candle Colors are used for improving the timing of your entries/exits based on market structure
- Upper Colored Bar is used for determining the favorable direction of the market based on Daily Volume Dynamics.
- Lower Colored Bar used for determining the favorable direction of the market based on Second/Minute/3-minute Volume Dynamics.
It's important to combine the components to increase the probability of success - here's how you should look for a trade:
1. Assess the current most favorable market direction by referencing the Upper Colored bar, look for longs if it’s green and for shorts if it’s red
2. Look for the Candle Colors to align with the Upper Colored bar, look for longs if it’s green and for shorts if it’s red
3. Look for short-time frame volume dynamics to align with your entries, by referencing the Lower Colored Bar - look for longs if it’s green and for shorts if it’s red.
A valid example of the trade would be:
- Upper Colored Bar is green, indicating the favorable trading directions is long
- Lower Colored Bar is green, indicating the favorable trading directions is long
- Candle Colors are green, indicating the market structure is favorable to enter your positions
📊 USAGE EXAMPLE
YinYang TrendTrend Analysis has always been an important aspect of Trading. There are so many important types of Trend Analysis and many times it may be difficult to identify what to use; let alone if an Indicator can/should be used in conjunction with another. For these exact reasons, we decided to make YinYang Trend. It is a Trend Analysis Toolkit which features many New and many Well Known Trend Analysis Indicators. However, everything in there is added specifically for the reason that it may work well in conjunction with the other Indicators prevalent within. You may be wondering, why bother including common Trend Analysis, why not make everything unique? Ideally, we would, however, you need to remember Trend Analysis may be one of the most common forms of charting. Therefore, many other traders may be using similar Trend Analysis either through plotting manually or within other Indicators. This all boils down to Psychology; you are trading against other traders, who may be seeing some of the similar information you are, and therefore, you may likewise want to see this information. What affects their trading decisions may affect yours as well.
Now enough about Trend Analysis, what is within this Indicator, and what does it do? Well, first let’s quickly mention all of its components, then we will, through a Tutorial, discuss each individually and finally how each comes together as a cohesive whole. This Indicator features many aspects:
Bull and Bear Signals
Take Profit Signals
Bull and Bear Zones
Information Tables displaying: (Boom Meter, Bull/Bear Strength, Yin/Yang State)
16 Cipher Signals
Extremes
Pivots
Trend Lines
Custom Bollinger Bands
Boom Meter Bar Colors
True Value Zones
Bar Strength Indexes
Volume Profile
There are many things to cover within our Tutorial so let's get started, chronologically from the list above.
Tutorial:
Bull and Bear Signals:
We’ve zoomed out quite a bit for this example to help give you a broader aspect of how these Bull and Bear signals work. When a signal appears, it is displaying that there may be a large amount of Bullish or Bearish Trend Analysis occurring. These signals will remain in their state of Bull or Bear until there is enough momentum change that they change over. There are a couple Options within the Settings that dictate when/where/why these signals appear, and this example is using their default Settings of ‘Medium’. They are, Purchase Speed and Purchase Strength. Purchase Speed refers to how much Price Movement is needed for a signal to occur and Purchase Strength refers to how many verifications are required for a signal to occur. For instance:
'High' uses 15 verifications to ensure signal strength.
'Medium' uses 10 verifications to ensure signal strength.
'Low' uses 5 verifications to ensure signal strength.
'Very Low' uses 3 verifications to ensure signal strength.
By default it is set to Medium (10 verifications). This means each verification is worth 10%. The verifications used are also relevant to the Purchase Speed; meaning they will be verified faster or slower depending on its speed setting. You may find that Faster Speeds and Lower Verifications may work better on Higher Time Frames; and Slower Speeds and Higher Verifications may work better on Lower Time Frames.
We will demonstrate a few examples as to how the Speed and Strength Settings work, and why it may be beneficial to adjust based on the Time Frame you’re on:
In this example above, we’ve kept the same Time Frame (1 Day), and scope; but we’ve changed Purchase Speed from Medium->Fast and Purchase Strength from Medium-Very Low. As you can see, it now generates quite a few more signals. The Speed and Strength settings that you use will likely be based on your trading style / strategy. Are you someone who likes to stay in trades longer or do you like to swing trade daily? Likewise, how do you go about identifying your Entry / Exit locations; do you start on the 1 Day for confirmation, then move to the 15/5 minute for your entry / exit? How you trade may determine which Speed and Strength settings work right for you. Let's jump to a lower Time Frame now so you can see how it works on the 15/5 minute.
Above is what BTC/USDT looks like on the 15 Minute Time Frame with Purchase Speed and Strength set to Medium. You may note that the signals require a certain amount of movement before they get started. This is normal with Medium and the amount of movement is generally dictated by the Time Frame. You may choose to use Medium on a Lower Time Frame as it may work well, but it may also be best to change it to a little slower.
We are still on the 15 Minute Time Frame here, however we simply changed Purchase Speed from Medium->Slow. As you can see, lots of the signals have been removed. Now signals may ‘hold their ground’ for much longer. It is important to adjust your Purchase Speed and Strength Settings to your Time Frame and personalized trading style accordingly.
Above we have now jumped down to the 5 Minute Time Frame. Our Purchase Speed is Slow and our Purchase Strength is Medium. We can see it looks pretty good, although there is some signal clustering going on in the middle there. If we change our Settings, we may be able to get rid of that.
We have changed our Purchase Speed from Slow->Snail (Slowest it can go) and Purchase Strength from Medium->Very Low (Lowest it can go). Changing it from Slow-Snail helped get rid of the signal clustering. You may be wondering why we lowered the Strength from Medium->Very Low, rather than going from Medium->High. This is a use case scenario and one you’ll need to decide for yourself, but we noticed when we changed the Speed from Slow->Snail that the signal clustering was gone, so then we checked both High and Very Low for Strengths to see which produced the best looking signal locations.
Please remember, you don’t have to use it the exact way we’ve displayed in this Tutorial. It is meant to be used to suit your Trading Style and Strategy. This is why we allow you to modify these settings, rather than just automating the change based on Time Frames. You’ll likely need to play around with it, as you’ll notice different settings may work better on certain pairs and Time Frames than others.
Take Profit Signals:
We’ve reset our Purchase Settings, everything is on defaults right now at Medium. We’ve enabled Take Profit signals. As you can see there are both Take Profit signals for the Bulls and the Bears. These signals are not meant to be used within automation. In fact, none of this indicator is. These signals are meant to show there has been a strong change in momentum, to such an extent that the signal may switch from its current (Bull or Bear) and now may be a good time to Take Profit. Your Take Profit Settings likewise has a Speed and Strength, and you can set them differently than your Purchase Settings. This is in case you want to Take Profit in a different manner than your Purchase Signals. For instance:
In the example above we’ve kept Purchase Strength and Speed at Medium but we changed our Take Profit Speed from Medium->Snail and our Take Profit Strength from medium->Very Low. This greatly reduces the amount of Take Profit signals, and in some cases, none are even produced. This form of Take Profit may act more as a Trailing Take Profit that if it’s not hit, nothing appears.
In this example we have changed our Purchase Speed from Medium->Fast, our Purchase Strength from Medium->Very Low. We’ve also changed our Take Profit Speed from Snail->Medium and kept our Take Profit Strength on Very Low. Now we may get our signals quicker and likewise our Take Profit may be more rare. There are many different ways you can set up your Purchase and Take Profit Settings to fit your Trading Style / Strategy.
Bull and Bear Zones:
We have disabled our Take Profit locations so that you can see the Bull and Bear Zones. These zones change color when the Signals switch. They may represent some strong Support and Resistance locations, but more importantly may be useful for visualizing changes in momentum and consolidation. These zones allow you to see various Moving Averages; and when they start to ‘fold’ (cross) each other you may see changes in momentum. Whereas, when they’re fully stretched out and moving all in the same direction, it can provide insight that the current rally may be strong. There is also the case where they look like they’re ‘twisted’ together. This happens when all of the Moving Averages are very close together and may be a sign of Consolidation. We will go over a few examples of each of these scenarios so you can understand what we’re referring to.
In this example above, there are a few different things happening. First we have the yellow circle, where the final and slowest Moving Average (MA) crossed over and now all of the MA’s that form the zone are Bullish. You can see this in the white circle where there are no MA’s that are crossing each other. Lastly, within the blue circle, we can see how some of the faster MA’s are crossing under each other. This is a bullish momentum change. The Faster moving MA’s will always be the first ones to cross before the Slower ones do. There is a color scheme in place here to represent the Speed of the MA within the Zone. Light blue is the fastest moving Bull color -> Light Green and finally -> Dark Green. Yellow is the fastest moving Bear color -> Orange and finally -> Red / Dark Red within the Zone.
Next we will review a couple different examples of what Consolidation looks like and why it is very important to look out for. Consolidation is when Most, if not All of the MA’s are very tightly ‘twisted’ together. There is very little spacing between almost all of the MA’s in the example above; highlighted by the white circle. Consolidation is important as it may indicate a strong price movement in either direction will occur soon. When the price is consolidating it means it has had very little upwards or downwards movement recently. When this happens for long enough, MA’s may all get very similar in value. This may cause high volatility as the price tries to break out of Consolidation. Let's look at another example.
Above we have two more examples of what Consolidation looks like and how high Volatility may occur after the Consolidation is broken. Please note, not all Consolidation will create high Volatility but it is something you may want to look out for.
Information Tables displaying: (Boom Meter, Bull/Bear Strength, Yin/Yang State):
Information tables are a very important way of displaying information. It contains 3 crucial pieces of information:
Boom Meter
Bull/Bear Strength
Yin/Yang State
Boom Meter is a meter that goes from 0-100% and displays whether the current price is Dumping (0 - 29%), Consolidating (30 - 70%) or Pumping (71 - 100%). The Boom Meter is meant to be a Gauge to how the price is currently fairing. It is composed of ~50 different calculations that all vary different weights to calculate its %. Many of the calculations it uses are likewise used in other things, such as the Bull/Bear Strength, Bull/Bear Zone MA cross’, Yin/Yang State, Market Cipher Signals, RSI, Volume and a few others. The Boom Meter, although not meant to be used solely to make purchase decisions, may give you a good idea of current market conditions considering how many different things it evaluates.
Bull/Bear Strength is relevant to your Purchase Speed and Strength. It displays which state it is currently in, and the % it is within that state. When a % hits 0, is when the state changes. When states change, they always start at 100% initially and will go down at the rate of Purchase Strength (how many verifications are needed). For instance, if your Purchase Strength is set to ‘Medium’ it will move 10% per verification +/-, if it is set to High, it will move 6.67% per verification +/-. Bull/Bear Strength is a good indicator of how well that current state is fairing. For instance if you started a Long when the state changed to Bull and now it is currently at Bull with 20% left, that may be a good indication it is time to get out (obviously refer to other data as well, but it may be a good way to know that the state is 20% away from transitioning to Bear).
Yin/Yang State is the strongest MA cross within our Indicator. It is unique in the sense that it is slow to change, but not so much that it moves slowly. It isn’t as simple as say a Golden/Death Cross (50/200), but it crosses more often and may hold similar weight as it. Yin stands for Negative (Bearish) and Yang stands for Positive (Bullish). The price will always be in either a state of Yin or Yang, and just because it is in one, doesn’t mean the price can’t/won’t move in the opposite direction; it simply means the price may be favoring the state it is in.
16 Cipher Signals:
Cipher Signals are key visuals of MA cross’ that may represent price movement and momentum. It would be too confusing and hard to decipher these MA’s as lines on a chart, and therefore we decided to use signals in the form of symbols instead. There are 12 Standard and 4 Predictive/Confirming Cipher signals. The Standard Cipher signals are composed of 6 Bullish and 6 Bearish (they all have opposites that balance each other out). There can never be 2 of the same signal in a row, as the Bull and Bear cancel each other out and it's always in a state of one or the other. When all 6 Bullish or Bearish signals appear in a row, very closely together, without any of the opposing signals it may represent a strong momentum movement is about to occur.
If you refer to the example above, you’ll see that the 6 Bullish Cipher signals appeared exactly as mentioned above. Shortly after the Green Circle appeared, there was a large spike in price movement in favor of the Bulls. Cipher signals don’t need to appear in a cluster exactly like the white circle in this photo for momentum to occur, but when it does, it may represent volatility more than if it is broken up with opposing signals or spaced out over a longer time span.
Above is an example of the opposite, where all 6 Bearish Cipher signals appeared together without being broken by a Bullish Cipher signal or being too far spaced out. As you can see, even though past it there was a few Bullish signals, they were quickly reversed back to Bearish before a large price movement occurred in favor of the Bears.
In the example above we’ve changed Cipher signals to Predictive and Confirming. Support Crosses (Green +) and Blood Diamonds (Red ♦) are the normal Cipher Signals that appear within the Standard Set. They are the first Cipher Signal that appears and are the most common ones as well. However, just because they are the first, that doesn’t mean they aren’t a powerful Cipher signal. For this reason, there are Predictive and Confirming Cipher signals for these. The Predictive do just that, they appear slightly sooner (if not the same bar) as the regular and the Confirming appear later (1+ bars usually). There will be times that the Predictive appears, but it doesn’t resort to the Regular appearing, or the Regular appears and the Confirming doesn’t. This is normal behavior and also the purpose of them. They are meant to be an indication of IF they may appear soon and IF the regular was indeed a valid signal.
Extremes:
Extremes are MA’s that have a very large length. They are useful for seeing Cross’ and Support and Resistance over a long period of time. However, because they are so long and slow moving, they might not always be relevant. It’s usually advised to turn them on, see if any are close to the current price point, and if they aren’t to turn them off. The main reason being is they stretch out the chart too much if they’re too far away and they also may not be relevant at that point.
When they are close to the price however, they may act as strong Support and Resistance locations as circled in the example above.
Pivots:
Pivots are used to help identify key Support and Resistance locations. They adjust on their own in an attempt to keep their locations as relevant as possible and likewise will adjust when the price pushes their current bounds. They may be useful for seeing when the Price is currently testing their level as this may represent Overbought or Oversold. Keep in mind, just because the price is testing their levels doesn’t mean it will correct; sometimes with high volatility or geopolitical news, movement may continue even if it is exhibiting Overbought or Oversold traits. Pivots may also be useful for seeing how far the price may correct to, giving you a benchmark for potential Take Profit and Stop Loss locations.
Trend Lines:
Trend Lines may be useful for identifying Support and Resistance locations on the Vertical. Trend Lines may form many different patterns, such as Pennants, Channels, Flags and Wedges. These formations may help predict and drive the price in specific directions. Many traders draw or use Indicators to help create Trend Lines to visualize where these formations will be and they may be very useful alone even for identifying possible Support and Resistance locations.
If you refer to the previous example, and now to this example, you’ll notice that the Trend Line that supported it in 2023 was actually created in June 2020 (yellow circle). Trend Lines may be crucial for identifying Support and Resistance locations on the Vertical that may withhold over time.
Custom Bollinger Bands:
Bollinger Bands are used to help see Movement vs Consolidation Zones (When it's wide vs narrow). It's also very useful for seeing where the correction areas may be. Price may bounce between top and bottom of the Bollinger Bands, unless in a pump or dump. The Boom Meter will show you whether it is currently: Dumping, Consolidation or Pumping. If combined with Boom Meter Bar Colors it may be a good indication if it will break the Bollinger Band (go outside of it). The Middle Line of the Bollinger Band (White Line) may be a very strong support / resistance location. If the price closes above or below it, it may be a good indication of the trend changing (it may indicate one of the first stages to a pump or dump). The color of the Bollinger Bands change based on if it is within a Bull or Bear Zone.
What makes this Bollinger Band special is not only that it uses a custom multiplier, but it also incorporates volume to help add weight to the calculation.
Boom Meter Bar Colors:
Boom Meter Bar Colors are a way to see potential Overbought and Oversold locations on a per bar basis. There are 6 different colors within the Boom Meter bar colors. You have:
Overbought and Very Bullish = Dark Green
Overbought and Slightly Bullish = Light Green
Overbought and Slight Bearish = Light Red
Oversold and Very Bearish = Dark Red
Oversold and Slightly Bearish = Orange
Oversold and Slightly Bullish = Light Purple
When there is no Boom Meter Bar Color prevalent there won’t be a color change within the bar at all.
Just because there is a Boom Meter Bar Color change doesn’t mean you should act on it purchase or sell wise, but it may be an indication as to how that bar is fairing in an Overbought / Oversold perspective. Boom Meter Bar Colors are mainly based on RSI but do take in other factors like price movement to determine if it is Overbought or Oversold. When it comes to Boom Meter Bar Color, you should take it as it is, in the sense that it may be useful for seeing how Individual bars are fairing, but also note that there may be things such as:
When there is Very Overbought (Dark Green) or Very Oversold (Dark Red), during massive pump or dumps, it will maintain this color. However, once it has lost ‘some’ momentum it will likely lose this color.
When there has been a massive Pump or Dump, and there is likewise a light purple or light red, this may mean there is a correction or consolidation incoming.
True Value Zones:
True Value zones are our custom way of displaying something that is similar to a Bollinger Band that can likewise twist like an MA cross. The main purpose of it is to display where the price may reside within. Much like a Bollinger Band it has its High and Low within its zone to specify this location. Since it has the ability to cross over and under, it has the ability to specify what it thinks may be a Bullish or Bearish zone. This zone uses its upper level to display what may be a Resistance location and its lower level to display what may be a Support location. These Support and Resistance locations are based on Momentum and will move with the price in an attempt to stay relevant.
You may use these True Values zones as a gauge of if the price is Overbought or Oversold. When the price faces high volatility and moves outside of the True Value Zones, it may face consolidation or likewise a correction to bring it back within these zones. These zones may act as a guideline towards where the price is currently valued at and may belong within.
Bar Strength Indexes:
Bar Strength Indexes are our way of ranking each bar in correlation to the last few. It is based on a few things but is highly influenced on Open/Close/High/Low, Volume and how the price has moved recently. They may attempt to ‘rate’ each bar and how Bullish/Bearish each of these bars are. The Green number under the bar is its Bullish % and the Red number above the bar is its Bearish %. These %’s will always equal 100% when combined together. Bar Strength Indexes may be useful for seeing when either Bullish or Bearish momentum is picking up or when there may be a reversal / consolidation.
These Bar Strength Indexes may allow you to decipher different states. If you refer to the example above, you may notice how based on how the numbers are changing, you may see when it has entered / exited Bullish, Bearish and Consolidation. Likewise, if you refer to the current bar (yellow circle), you can see that the Bullish % has dropped from 93 to 49; this may be signifying that the Bullish movement is losing momentum. You may use these changes in Bar Indexes as a guide to when to enter / end trades.
Volume Profile:
Volume Profile has been something that has been within TradingView for quite some time. It is a very useful way of seeing at what Horizontal Price there has been the most volume. This may be very useful for seeing not only Support and Resistance locations based on Volume, but also seeing where the majority of Limit Orders are placed. Limit Orders are where traders decide they want to either Buy / Sell but have the order placed so the trade won’t happen until the price reaches a certain amount. Either through many orders from many traders, or a single order from a ‘Whale’ (trader with a lot of capital); you may see Support and Resistance at specific Price Points that have large Volume.
Many Volume Profile Indicators feature a breakdown of all the different locations of volume, along with a Point Of Control (POC) line to designate where the most Volume has been. To try and reduce clutter within our already very saturated Toolkit Indicator, we’ve decided to strip our Volume Profile to only display this POC line. This may allow you to see where the crucial Volume Support and Resistance is without all of the clutter.
You may be wondering, well how important is this Volume Profile POC line and how do I go about using it? Aside from it being a gauge towards where Support and Resistance may be within Volume, it may also be useful for identifying good Long/Short locations. If you think of the line as a ‘Battle’ between the Bulls and Bears, they’re both fighting over that line. The Bears are wanting to break through it downwards, and the Bulls are wanting to break through it upwards. When one side has temporarily won this battle, this means they may have more Capital to push the price in their direction. For instance, if both the Bulls and the Bears are fighting over this POC price, that means the Bears think that price is a good spot to sell; however, the Bulls also deem that price to be a good point to buy. If the Bulls were to win this battle, that means the Bears either canceled their orders to reevaluate, or all of their orders have been completed from the Bulls buying them all. What may happen after that is, if the Bulls were able to purchase all of these Limit Sell Orders, then they may still have more Capital left to continue to pressure the price upwards. The same may be true for if the Bears were to win this ‘Battle’.
How to use YinYang Trend as a cohesive whole:
Hopefully you’ve read and understand how each aspect of this Indicator works on its own, as knowing how/what they each do is important to understanding how it is used as a cohesive whole. Due to the fact that this Toolkit of an Indicator displays so much data, you may find it easier to use and understand when you’re zoomed in a little, somewhat like we are in this example above.
If we refer to the example above, you may like us, deduce a few things:
1. The current price may be VERY Overbought. This may be seen by a few different things:
The Boom Meter Bar Colors have been exhibiting a Dark Green color for 6 bars in a row.
The price has continuously been moving the High (red) Pivot Upwards.
Our Boom Meter displays ‘Pumping’ at 100%.
The price broke through a Downward Trend Line that was created in February of 2022 at 45,000 like it was nothing.
The Bar Strength Index hit a Bullish value of 93%.
The Price broke out of the Bollinger Bands and continues to test its upper levels.
The Low is much greater than our fastest moving MA that creates the Purchase Zones.
The Price is vastly outside of the True Value Zone.
The Bar Strength Index of our current bar is 50% bullish, which is a massive decrease from the previous bar of 93%. This may indicate that a correction is coming soon.
2. Since we’ve identified the current price may be VERY Overbought, next we need to identify if/when/to where it may correct to:
We’ve created a new example here to display potential correction areas. There are a few places it has the ability to correct to / within:
The downward Trend Line (red) below the current bar sitting currently at 32,750. This downward Trend Line is at the same price point as the Fastest MA of our Purchase Zone which may provide some decent Support there.
Between two crucial Pivot heights, within a zone of 30,000 to 31,815. This zone has the second fastest MA from the Purchase Zone right near the middle of it at 31,200 which may act as a Support within the Zone. Likewise there is the Bollinger Band Basis which is also resting at 30,000 which may provide a strong Support location here.
If 30,000 fails there may be a correction all the way to the bottom of our True Value Zone and the top of one of our Extremes at 27,850.
If 27,850 fails it may correct all the way to the bottom of our Purchase Zone / lowest of our Extremes at 27,350.
If all of the above fails, it may test our Volume Profile POC of 26,430. If this POC fails, the trend may switch to Bearish and continue further down to lower levels of Support.
The price can always correct more than the prices mentioned above, but considering overall this Indicator is favoring the Bulls, we will tailor this analysis in Favor of the Bullish Momentum maintaining even during this correction. For these reasons, we think the price may correct between the 30,000 and 31,815 zone before continuing upwards and maintaining this Bullish Momentum.
Please note, these correction estimates are just that, they’re estimates. Aside from the fact that the price is very overbought right now and our Bar Strength Index may be declining (bar hasn’t closed yet); the Boom Meter Strength remains at 100%, meaning there may not be much Bearish momentum changes happening yet. We just want to show you how an Preemptive analysis may be done before there are even Bearish Cipher Signals appearing.
Using this Indicator, you may be able to decipher Entry and Exits. In the previous example, we went over how you may use it to see where a correction (Exit / Take Profit) may be and how far this correction may go. In this example above we will be discussing how to identify Entry locations. We will be discussing a Bullish Buy entry but the same rules apply for a Bearish Sell Entry just the opposite with the Cipher Signals.
If you refer to where we circled in white, this is where the Purchase Zones faced Consolidation. When the Purchase Zones all get tight and close together like that, this may represent Volatility and Momentum in either direction may occur soon.
This was then followed by all 6 of the Standard Cipher Signals closely in succession to each other. This means the Momentum may be favoring the Bulls. If this was likewise all 6 of the Bearish Cipher Signals closely in succession, than the momentum change would favor the Bears.
If you were looking for an entry, and you saw Consolidation with the Purchase Zones and then shortly after you saw the Green Circle and Blue Flag (they can swap order); this may now be a good Entry location.
We will conclude this Tutorial here. Hopefully this has taught you how this Trend Analysis Toolkit may help you locate multiple different types of important Support and Resistance locations; as well as possible Entry and Exit locations.
Settings:
1. Bull/Bear Zones:
1.1. Purchase Speed (Bull/Bear Signals and Take Profit Signals):
Speed determines how much price movement is needed for a signal to occur.
'Sonic' uses the extremities to try and get you the best entry and exit points, but is so quick, its speed may reduce accuracy.
'Fast' may attempt to capitalize on price movements to help you get SOME or attempt to lose LITTLE quickly.
'Medium' may attempt to get you the most optimal entry and exit locations, but may miss extremities.
'Slow' may stay in trades until it is clear that momentum has changed.
'Snail' may stay in trades even if momentum has changed. Snail may only change when the price has moved significantly (This may result in BIG gains, but potentially also BIG losses).
1.2. Purchase Strength (Bull/Bear Signals and Take Profit Signals):
Strength ensures a certain amount of verifications required for signals to happen. The more verifications the more accurate that signal is, but it may also change entry and exit points, and you may miss out on some of the extremities. It is highly advised to find the best combination between Speed and Strength for the TimeFrame and Pair you are trading in, as all pairs and TimeFrames move differently.
'High' uses 15 verifications to ensure signal strength.
'Medium' uses 10 verifications to ensure signal strength.
'Low' uses 5 verifications to ensure signal strength.
'Very Low' uses 3 verifications to ensure signal strength.
2. Cipher Signals:
Cipher Signals are very strong EMA and SMA crosses, which may drastically help visualize movement and help you to predict where the price will go. All Symbols have counter opposites that cancel each other out (YinYang). Here is a list, in order of general appearance and strength:
White Cross / Diamond (Predictive): The initial indicator showing trend movement.
Green Cross / Diamond (Regular): Confirms the Predictive and may add a fair bit of strength to trend movement.
Blue Cross / Diamond (Confirming): Confirms the Regular, showing the trend might have some decent momentum now.
Green / Red X: Gives momentum to the current trend direction, possibly confirming the Confirming Cross/Diamond.
Blue / Orange Triangle: may confirm the X, Possible pump / dump of decent size may be coming soon.
Green / Red Circle: EITHER confirms the Triangle and may mean big pump / dump is potentially coming, OR it just hit its peak and signifies a potential reversal correction. PAY ATTENTION!
Green / Red Flag: Oddball that helps confirm trend movements on the short term.
Blue / Yellow Flag: Oddball that helps confirm trend movements on the medium term (Yin / Yang is the long term Oddball).
3. Bull/Bear Signals:
Bear and Bull signals are where the momentum has changed enough based on your Purchase Speed and Strength. They generally represent strong price movement in the direction of the signal, and may be more reliable on higher TimeFrames. Please don’t use JUST these signals for analysis, they are only meant to be a fraction of the important data you are using to make your technical analysis.
4. Take Profit Signals:
Take Profit signals are guidelines that momentum has started to change back and now may be a good time to take profit. Your Take Profit signals are based on your Take Profit Speed and Strength and may be adjusted to fit your trading style.
5. Information Tables:
Information tables display very important data and help to declutter the screen as they are much less intrusive compared to labels. Our Information tables display: Boom Meter, Purchase Strength of Bull/Bear Zones and Yin/Yang State.
Boom Meter: Uses over 50 different calculations to determine if the pair is currently 'Dumping' (0-29%), 'Consolidating' (30-70%), or 'Pumping' (71-100%).
Bull / Bear Strength: Shows the strength of the current Bull / Bear signal from 0-100% (Signals start at 100% and change when they hit 0%). The % it moves up or down is based on your 'Purchase Strength'.
Yin / Yang state: Is one of the strongest EMA/SMA crosses (long term Oddball) within this Indicator and may be a great indication of which way the price is moving. Do keep in mind if the price is consolidating when changing state, it may have the highest chance of switching back also. Once momentum kicks in and there is price movement the state may be confirmed. Refer to other Cipher Symbols, Extremes, Trend, BOLL, Boom %, Bull / Bear % and Bar colors when Bull / Bear Zones are consolidating and Yin / Yang State changes as this is a very strong indecision zone.
6. Bull / Bear Zones:
Our Bull / Bear zones are composed of 8 very important EMA lengths that may act as not only Support and Resistance, but they help to potentially display consolidation and momentum change. You can tell when they are getting tight and close together it may represent consolidation and when they start to flip over on each other it may represent a change in momentum.
7. MA Extremes:
Our MA Extremes may be 3 of the most important long term moving averages. They don’t always play a role in trades as sometimes they’re way off from the price (cause they’re extreme lengths), but when they are around price or they cross under or over each other, it may represent large changes in price are about to occur. They may be very useful for seeing strong resistance / support locations based on price averages. Extremes may transition from a Support to a Resistance based on its position above or below them and how many times the price has either bounced up off them (Supporting) or Bounced back down after hitting them (Resistance).
8. Pivots:
Pivots may be a very important indicator of support and resistance for horizontal price movement. Pivots may represent the current strongest Support and Resistance. When the Pivot changes, it means a new strong Support or Resistance has been created. Sometimes you'll notice the price constantly pushes the pivot during a massive Pump or Dump. This is normal, and may indicate high levels of volatility. This generally also happens when the price is outside of the Bollinger Bands and is also Over or Undervalued. The price usually consolidates for a while after something like this happens before more drastic movement may occur.
9. Trend Lines:
Trend lines may be one of the best indicators of support and resistance for diagonal price movement. When a Trend Line fails to hold it may be a strong indication of a dump. Keep a close eye to where Upward and Downward Trend Lines meet. Trend lines can create different trading formations known as Pennants, Flags and Wedges. Please familiarize yourself with these formations So you know what to look for.
10. Bollinger Bands (BOLL):
Bollinger Bands may be very useful, and ours have been customized so they may be even more accurate by using a modified calculation that also incorporates volume.
Bollinger Bands may be used to see Movement vs Consolidation Zones (When it’s wide vs narrow). It also may be very useful for seeing where the correction areas are likely to be. Price may bounce between top and bottom of the BOLL, unless perhaps in a pump or dump. The Boom Meter may show you whether it is currently: Dumping, Consolidation or Pumping, along with Boom Meter Bar Colors, may be a good indication if it will break the BOLL. The Middle Line of the BOLL (White Line) may be a very strong support / resistance line. If the price closes above or below it, it may be a good indication of the trend changing (it may be one of the first stages to a pump or dump).
11. Boom Meter Bar Colors:
Boom Meter bar colors may be very useful for seeing when the bar is Overbought or Underbought. There are 6 different types of boom meter bar colors, they are:
Dark Green: RSI may be very Overbought and price going UP (May be in a big pump. NOTICE, chance of small dump correction if Cherry Red bar appears).
Light Green: RSI may be slightly Overbought and price going UP (chance of small pump).
Light Purple: RSI may be very Underbought and price going UP (May have chance of small correction).
Dark Red: RSI may be very Underbought and price going DOWN (May be in a big dump. NOTICE, chance of small pump correction if Light Purple bar appears).
Light Orange: RSI may be slightly Underbought and price going DOWN (chance of small dump).
Cherry Red: RSI may be very Overbought and price going DOWN (Chance of small correction).
12. True Value Zone:
True Value Zones display zones that represent ranges to show what the price may truly belong within. They may be very useful for knowing if the Price is currently not valued correctly, which generally means a correction may happen soon. True Value Zones can swap from Bullish to Bearish and are represented by Red for Bearish and Green for Bullish. For example, if the price is ABOVE and OUTSIDE of the True Value Zone, this means it may be very overvalued and might correct to go back inside the True Value Zone. This correction may be done by either dumping in price back into the zone, or consolidating horizontally back into it over a longer period of time. Vice Versa is also true if it is BELOW and OUTSIDE of the True Value Zone.
13. Bar Strength Index:
Bar Strength Index may display how Bullish/Bearish the current bar is. The strength is important to help see if a pump may be losing momentum or vice versa if a dump may correct. Keep in mind, the Bar Strength Index does a small 'refresh' to account for new bars. It may help to keep the Index more accurate.
14. Volume Profile:
Volume Profiles may be important to know where the Horizontal Support/Resistance is in Price base on Volume. Our Volume Profile may identify the point where the most volume has occurred within the most relevant timeframe. Volume Profiles are helpful at identifying where Whales have their orders placed. The reason why they are so helpful at identifying whales is when the volume is profiled to a specific area, there may likely be lots of Limit Buy and/or Sells around there. Limit Buys may act as Support and Limit Sells may act as Resistance. It may be very useful to know where these lie within the price, similar to looking at Order Book Data for Whale locations.

HAPPY TRADING!
OutsiderEdge – Node Breach Engine (NBE)Overview – What is the Node Breach Engine (NBE)?
NBE is a swing/session volume-profile engine that builds profiles between pivots (or per session), tracks closed & developing POC, and prints breach signals when price challenges the control node. It quantifies node strength, buy/sell composition (CVD) at the POC and the entire profile, Value Area levels (VAH/VAL), VWAP distance, time at price, and introduces a PoV (Point of Void; the LVN located inside the Value Area): to highlight low-participation corridors where rotations or rejections often form. A lightweight EMA smoothed trend can optionally filter signals by prevailing bias.
Use it to answer fast: How strong is this node? Is the profile buy- or sell-led? Are we accepting/rejecting control? Is the developing POC migrating? Is the VA’s LVN (PoV) about to rotate back to POC or reject?
🔹 FEATURES
Volume Profile Core (Swing or Session)
Build pivot-to-pivot or session profiles with configurable row density and Value Area %.
Draw VAH/VAL with optional VA fill and optional profile window background.
Control Node (POC) – Closed & Developing
Closed POC highlighted on finished windows.
Developing POC path stitched bar-by-bar on the active segment (visual migration of control).
Optional POC row highlight and extend-until-touch behavior.
PoV – Point of Void
Detects the lowest-volume row within the current VA band (between VAL and VAH).
Plots a PoV anchor/line you can use as a rotation target or rejection boundary:
Rotations: VAH ↔ PoV (LVN) ↔ POC ↔ VAL.
Rejections: Thin participation at PoV often flips acceptance back toward POC.
Works alongside POC/VA to map acceptance vs. rejection with finer granularity than a single control node.
Node Context Tooltip (Deep Dive)
Compact tooltips on closed profiles: POC price, Node Strength % (POC/Total), CVD split (Buy%/Sell%), VWAP distance %, bars at price.
Profile Buy/Sell Overview (Stacked Bars)
Two stacked horizontal bars (Buy ▲ / Sell ▼) whose width matches the histogram and thickness is configurable.
Auto-placed above or below the profile using swing H/L logic.
Available for closed and developing profiles.
CVD at POC and Full-Profile
Quick labels for Buy% / Sell% at the POC.
Stacked bars summarize full-profile pressure at a glance.
Trend Context
Gradient EMA base vs. smoothed EMA wave for bull/bear bias.
Filter signals to trend direction (only ▲ in uptrend, only ▼ in downtrend).
Breach Signals with Practical Filters
Signals print when price touches/rejects the POC.
Filters: rejection close, ATR momentum guard, wick confirmation, ± margin tolerance, session time filter.
One-shot per bar; coded with object-limit hygiene.
Swing % Change Labels
Small labels at swing H/L showing % move across the last swing window.
Alerts
POC Breach Signal alert for automation/notifications.
🔹 USAGE
In the examples below, you see chart snapshot with labeled alerts/points of POV and POC rejections.
1 — Bearish POC Rejection (▼)
Price tags POC and closes below; ATR guard; EMA wave is bearish. Treat as trend-aligned continuation, reversals or risk tighten on longs.
2 — Bearish POV (LVN) Rejection (▼)
Price probes POV and fails to accept; low participation at PoV flips acceptance. Useful for rotation setups or partials.
3 — Bullish POV Rejection (▲)
Price tags POV and closes above; ATR guard; EMA wave is bullish. Treat as trend-aligned continuation, reversals or risk tighten on shorts.
Treat every signal as context, not as a command. The edge comes from combining location (POC/VA/PoV) with pressure (Node Strength/CVD/VWAP distance) and your structure/timing rules.
🔹 NAVIGATING MARKET CONDITIONS
Trending markets
Expect POC drift with trend; breaches tend to follow-through. Favor trend-aligned breaches; use PoV and VA for add/trim decisions.
Ranges
Frequent VA rotations VAH ↔ PoV ↔ POC ↔ VAL. Fades can work with tight invalidation; lean on PoV to avoid fighting acceptance near POC.
Regime shifts
Repeated failed breaches, PoV rejections, and developing POC re-anchoring are early tells. Adjust filters (ATR guard, wick) and window density as volatility changes.
🔹 SETTINGS SUMMARY
Profile Type: Swing / Session
Window: Present (developing) or Closed Profiles
Rows, lookback cap, Value Area %, optional background
Show POC (closed/developing), POC row highlight
VAH/VAL visibility, optional VA fill
Enable PoV detection (LVN inside VA).
Style controls; optional display with VA/POC.
Rejection close, ATR × multiplier, Wick % threshold, ± Margin %, Session time (trade inside/skip inside)
Enable EMA wave; lengths & smoothing
Toggle CVD; thickness (rows); colors; label text
Swing % change, tooltips, color controls
POC and POV Breach Alerts
🔹 GOOD PRACTICES
Think location + pressure: POC/VA/POV (where) × Node Strength/CVD/VWAP distance (how strong).
Align with HTF structure and liquidity; let POC/POV/VA act as decision levels (initiate, add, reduce, invalidate).
Calibrate row density per symbol/TF; too coarse = blind spots, too fine = noise.
Keep filters honest—if you must loosen them to force a trade, the setup isn’t there.
🔹 LIMITATIONS / DISCLAIMER
NBE does not use lookahead and does not repaint, but no indicator guarantees outcomes.
Node Strength, CVD, PoV, and thresholds are contextual, not signals on their own.
Use independent validation, position sizing, and strict risk management.
Trading involves substantial risk. This tool is for educational purposes only and is not financial advice. Past performance does not guarantee future results. You are solely responsible for your trading decisions and risk management.
Release Notes
v1.1 — PoV (Point of Void) & Profile CVD Bars
Added PoV = LVN inside Value Area as a dedicated anchor/line.
Added stacked profile Buy/Sell bars for closed & developing profiles (width-matched, thickness configurable).
Improved developing VA line/fill updates and object cleanup.
v1.0 — Initial invite-only
Swing/Session profiles; VAH/VAL + optional VA fill

FlowScope [Hapharmonic]FlowScope: Uncover the Market's True Intent 🔬
Ever wished you could look inside the candles and see where the real action is happening? FlowScope is your microscope for the market's flow, designed to give you a powerful edge by revealing the volume distribution that price action alone can't show you.
Instead of just looking at the open, high, low, and close, FlowScope lets you dive deeper into the market's auction process. It groups candles together and builds a detailed Volume Profile for that period, showing you exactly where the trading happened and revealing the story behind the price action.
Let's explore how you can use it to gain a powerful new edge.
🧐 Core Concept: How It Works
At its heart, FlowScope does three key things:
It Groups Candles: You decide how many candles to group together. For example, setting " Group Candles " to 4 on a 5-minute chart effectively gives you a detailed 20-minute candle and profile. This helps you see the bigger picture and filter out market noise.
It Builds a Volume Profile: For each group, FlowScope analyzes the volume at every single price level. It then displays this as a horizontal histogram (we call this a "footprint" or profile). Longer bars mean more volume was traded at that price, indicating a "fair" price or an area of acceptance. Shorter bars mean price moved through quickly, indicating rejection.
It Creates a Custom "Grouped Candle": To summarize the group's overall price action, FlowScope draws a single, custom candle representing the entire group's:
Open: The open of the first candle in the group.
High: The absolute highest price reached within the group.
Low: The absolute lowest price reached within the group.
Close: The close of the last candle in the group.
This gives you a crystal-clear view of the group's net result, free from the back-and-forth noise of the individual candles inside it.
Below are some of the stunning preset color palettes you can choose from to customize your view:
🚀 How to Use: Practical Applications
FlowScope isn't just for looking pretty; it's a powerful analysis tool. Here are a few ways to integrate it into your trading:
Identify High-Volume Nodes (HVNs): Look for the longest bars in the profile. These are price levels where the market spent the most time and traded the most volume. HVNs often act as powerful "magnets" for price, becoming key areas of support and resistance.
Spot Low-Volume Nodes (LVNs): These are areas with very short bars or gaps in the profile. They represent price levels that the market moved through quickly and inefficiently. If price returns to an LVN, it's likely to move through it quickly again.
Analyze the Summary Box: This is where the real magic happens! ✨
Total Volume (Σ): The total volume for the entire group.
Buy (B) vs. Sell (S) Volume: FlowScope analyzes the lower timeframe action to estimate the buying and selling pressure that made up the total volume. Is a big red candle mostly aggressive selling, or was it just a lack of buyers? The B/S data gives you clues. A high-volume candle with nearly 50/50 buy/sell pressure might indicate absorption or a potential reversal.
Use the Grouped Candle for Clarity: Is the market in a clear uptrend, or is it just choppy? The grouped candle can give you a much clearer signal. A series of strong, green grouped candles shows much more conviction than a mix of small green and red candles.
⚙️ Settings & Customization
This is where you can truly make FlowScope your own. Let's walk through each setting.
Profile Settings
Group Candles: The number of standard chart candles you want to combine into a single FlowScope profile. A setting of 1 will analyze every single bar. A higher number gives you a broader market view. When Group Candles is set to 5, the data from the 5 individual candles are combined, and the volume is calculated accordingly.
Max Profile Boxes: This setting is more than just a number; it's a smart limit that ensures your profiles are always readable and relevant to the current market conditions.
Adaptive Sizing (The Ideal Goal): FlowScope first tries to create the perfect profile by making each volume box's height proportional to the current market volatility. It calculates an "ideal" box height based on the Average True Range ( ATR / 10 ). This is powerful because it automatically adapts: you get smaller, more detailed boxes in quiet, low-volatility markets, and larger, clearer boxes in volatile, fast-moving markets.
The Safety Cap (Your Setting): However, what if you group several candles during a massive price move? The price range could be huge! If we only used the small, ATR-based box height, you might end up with hundreds of tiny, unreadable boxes. This is where your Max Profile Boxes setting (defaulting to 50) comes in. It acts as a maximum detail cap . If the adaptive, volatility-based calculation determines that it would need more boxes than your setting (e.g., more than 50), the indicator will override it. It will then simply divide the entire price range of the group into exactly the number of boxes you specified (e.g., 50).
In short: You are setting the maximum allowable detail. FlowScope intelligently adapts the profile's granularity below that limit based on market volatility, ensuring you always get a clear and meaningful picture.
Style
Show Profile BG: A simple toggle to show or hide the faint background color behind the volume bars. Turning it off can create a cleaner look.
Color Mode: This dropdown controls how the volume profile text is colored.
Custom Gradient: This mode uses the three custom colors you select in the "Profile Colors" section to create a beautiful gradient across the profile.
Candle Color: This mode colors the profile based on whether the grouped candle was bullish (green) or bearish (red). The color will be a gradient, with the most intense color applied to the box with the highest volume; the colors of the other boxes will fade out from that point. It's a great way to see the profile's "mood" at a glance.
Profile Colors 🎨
Use Preset Palette: This is the master switch!
If checked: You can choose from 10 stunning, pre-designed color palettes from the Palette dropdown. The custom color pickers below will be disabled.
If unchecked (Default): The Palette dropdown will be disabled, and you can now choose your own three colors for the gradient.
Palette: (Only active when "Use Preset Palette" is checked) . Choose from 10 luxurious, eye-catching color schemes like "Solar Flare" or "Deep Space" to instantly change the look and feel of your chart.
Low Price / Mid Price / High Price: (Only active when "Use Preset Palette" is unchecked) . These three color pickers allow you to design your own unique gradient for the Custom Gradient color mode.
Candle Display
These settings control the custom "Grouped Candle" that summarizes the profile. When using the "Show Custom Candle" feature, you should change the chart's candlestick display to Bars for a cleaner view.
Show Custom Candle: This is the main toggle. When you check this box, the original chart candles will be hidden, and your custom FlowScope candle will be displayed instead. This custom candle is intentionally small to ensure it does not visually overlap with the volume profile boxes.
Show Body: (Only active when "Show Custom Candle" is checked) . Toggles the visibility of the candle's body.

Dynamic Liquidity Depth [BigBeluga]
Dynamic Liquidity Depth
A liquidity mapping engine that reveals hidden zones of market vulnerability. This tool simulates where potential large concentrations of stop-losses may exist — above recent highs (sell-side) and below recent lows (buy-side) — by analyzing real price behavior and directional volume. The result is a dynamic two-sided volume profile that highlights where price is most likely to gravitate during liquidation events, reversals, or engineered stop hunts.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Two-Sided Liquidity Profiles:
Plots two separate profiles on the chart — one above price for potential sell-side liquidity , and one below price for potential buy-side liquidity . Each profile reflects the volume distribution across binned zones derived from historical highs and lows.
Real Stop Zone Simulation:
Each profile is offset from the current high or low using an ATR-based buffer. This simulates where traders might cluster their stop-losses above swing highs (short stops) or below swing lows (long stops).
Directional Volume Analysis:
Buy-side volume is accumulated only from bullish candles (close > open), while sell-side volume is accumulated only from bearish candles (close < open). This directional filtering enhances accuracy by capturing genuine pressure zones.
Dynamic Volume Heatmap:
Each liquidity bin is rendered as a horizontal box with a color gradient based on volume intensity:
- Low activity bins are shaded lightly.
- High-volume zones appear more vividly in red (sell) or lime (buy).
- The maximum volume bin in each profile is emphasized with a brighter fill and a volume label.
Extended POC Zones:
The Point of Control (PoC) — the bin with the most volume — is extended backwards across the entire lookback period to mark critical resistance (sell-side) or support (buy-side) levels.
Total Volume Summary Labels:
At the center of each profile, a summary label displays Total Buy Liquidity and Total Sell Liquidity volume.
This metric helps assess directional imbalance — when buy liquidity is dominant, the market may favor upward continuation, and vice versa.
Customizable Profile Granularity:
You can fine-tune both Resolution (Bins) and Offset Distance to adjust how far profiles are displaced from price and how many levels are calculated within the ATR range.
🔵 HOW IT WORKS
The indicator calculates an ATR-based buffer above highs and below lows to define the top and bottom of the liquidity zones.
Using a user-defined lookback period, it scans historical candles and divides the buffered zones into bins.
Each bin checks if bullish (or bearish) candles pass through it based on price wicks and body.
Volume from valid candles is summed into the corresponding bin.
When volume exists in a bin, a horizontal box is drawn with a width scaled by relative volume strength.
The bin with the highest volume is highlighted and optionally extended backward as a zone of importance.
Total buy/sell liquidity is displayed with a summary label at the side of the profile.
🔵 USAGE/b]
Identify Stop Hunt Zones: High-volume clusters near swing highs/lows are likely liquidation zones targeted during fakeouts.
Fade or Follow Reactions: Price hitting a high-volume bin may reverse (fade opportunity) or break with strength (confirmation breakout).
Layer with Other Tools: Combine with market structure, order blocks, or trend filters to validate entries near liquidity.
Adjust Offset for Sensitivity: Use higher offset to simulate wider stop placement; use lower for tighter scalping zones.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Dynamic Liquidity Depth transforms raw price and volume into a spatial map of liquidity. By revealing areas where stop orders are likely hidden, it gives traders insight into price manipulation zones, potential reversal levels, and breakout traps. Whether you're hunting for traps or trading with the flow, this tool equips you to navigate liquidity with precision.
Liquidity Pro Map [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
Liquidity Pro Map is a market-structure tool that simulates liquidity distribution by splitting price history into buy-side and sell-side profiles. Using candle volume and the standard deviation of close, the indicator builds two mirrored volume maps on the right-hand side of the chart. It also extends liquidity levels backwards in time until they are crossed by price, allowing you to see which zones remain untouched and where liquidity is most likely resting. Cumulative skew lines and highlighted POC levels give additional clarity on imbalance between buyers and sellers.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Dual Liquidity Profiles: The chart is divided into buy-side (green) and sell-side (red) liquidity profiles, letting you instantly compare both sides of order flow.
Level Extension Logic: Each liquidity level is extended back in time until price crosses it. If not crossed, it persists all the way to the indicator’s lookback period, marking zones that remain “untapped.”
Dynamic Binning with Standard Deviation: The indicator distributes candle volumes into bins using close-price deviation, creating a more realistic liquidity map than static price levels.
priceDeviation = ta.stdev(close, 25) * 2
priceReference = close > open ? low - priceDeviation : high + priceDeviation
Cumulative Volume Skew Lines: Polylines on the right-hand side show the aggregated buy and sell volume profiles, making it easy to spot imbalance.
POC Identification: Highest-volume levels on both sides are marked as POC (Point of Control) , providing key zones of interest.
Clear Color Coding: Gradient shading intensifies with volume concentration—dark teal/green for buy zones, dark pink/red for sell zones.
⯁ HOW IT WORKS (UNDER THE HOOD)
Volume Distribution: Each bar’s volume is assigned to a price bin based on its reference price (close ± standard deviation offset).
Buy vs. Sell Splitting: If bins above last close price, volume is allocated to sell-side liquidity; otherwise, it’s allocated to buy-side liquidity.
Level Extension: Boxes marking liquidity bins extend back until crossed by price. If uncrossed, they anchor all the way to the start of the lookback window.
Cumulative Polylines: As bins are stacked, cumulative buy and sell values form skew polylines plotted at the right edge.
POC Levels: The highest-volume bin on each side is highlighted with labels and arrows, marking where the heaviest liquidity is concentrated.
⯁ USAGE
Use buy/sell profiles to see where liquidity is likely resting. Green shelves suggest potential support zones; red shelves suggest resistance or sell liquidity pools.
Watch untouched extended levels —these often become magnets for price as liquidity is swept.
Track POC levels as primary liquidity targets, where reactions or fakeouts are most common.
Compare cumulative skew lines to judge which side dominates in volume. Heavy buy skew may indicate absorption of sell pressure, and vice versa.
Adjust lookback period to switch between intraday liquidity maps and larger swing-based profiles.
Use separator feature to hide bins borders for better visual clarity.
Use as a confluence tool with OBs, support/resistance, and liquidity sweep setups.
⯁ CONCLUSION
Liquidity Pro Map transforms candle volume into a structured simulation of where liquidity may rest across the chart. By dividing buy vs. sell profiles, extending untouched levels, and marking cumulative skew and POC, it equips traders with a clear visual map of potential liquidity pools. This allows for better anticipation of sweeps, reversals, and areas of high market activity.
Frankie Candles Essentials [LuxAlgo]The Frankie Candles Essentials toolkit is a collection of essential features used by trader Frankie Candles. This toolkit focuses on the relationship between MTF oscillator divergences and volume profiles, allowing the detection of different kinds of reversals. Retracements from the "Golden Pocket" features are also included.
🔶 USAGE
When adding the script to your chart you will be prompted to select the calculation interval of the "Top-Down Volume Profile", simply click on your chart where you want the starting and ending points of the calculation interval.
🔹 Top-Down Volume Profile
The Top-Down Volume Profile is a classical fixed-range volume profile and highlights the amount of traded volume within equidistant price areas. The amount of areas is determined by the "Rows" setting (Note that the volume profile can use up to 250 rows).
The value area (VA) highlights the area where the specified percentage of the total volume is traded, that is the area with the most recorded trading activity relative to a selected percentage.
Finally, the point of control (POC) highlights the price level with the most trading activity.
🔹 Divergences
Users can highlight divergences made by oscillators on their charts. The toolkit includes three indicators such as RSI, MFI, and WaveTrend with MTF support, users can also select external oscillators but these will not support MTF divergence detection.
Once the Top-Down Volume Profile is set historical divergences will be affected by its value area (VA), with bearish divergences located above the upper VA or bullish divergences located under the lower VA being highlighted with a sauce can, a signature display stel of Frankie Candles.
Users can also filter out divergences based on the point of control (POC) using the "Filter According To POC" setting, with bearish divergences located below the POC or bullish divergences located above it being filtered out.
Do note that divergences are detected N bars after their occurrence, where N is the divergence lookback setting
🔹 Golden Pockets
The script includes an MTF Golden Pockets feature displaying Fibonacci retracements on the user chart, these can be used to identify optimal trade entries (OTE) or serve as support/resistance levels.
Golden Pockets are based on maximum/minimum prices in a window determined by the "Golden Pocket Lookback" setting, using longer-term lookbacks will return longer-term divergences, this will also be the case when using HTF golden pockets.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Candle Coloring

Supply Demand Profiles [LuxAlgo]The Supply Demand Profiles is a charting tool that measures the traded volume at all price levels on the market over a specified time period and highlights the relationship between the price of a given asset and the willingness of traders to either buy or sell it, in other words, highlights key concepts as significant supply & demand zones, the distribution of the traded volume, and market sentiment at specific price levels within a specified time period, allowing traders to reveal dominant and/or significant price levels and to analyze the trading activity of a particular user-selected range.
In other words, this tool highlights key concepts as significant supply & demand zones, the distribution of the traded volume, and market sentiment at specific price levels within a specified time period, allowing traders to reveal dominant and/or significant price levels and to analyze the trading activity of a particular user-selected range.
Besides having the tool as a combo tool, the uniqueness of this version of the tool compared to its early versions is its ability to benefit from different volume data sources and its ability to use a variety of different polarity methods, where polarity is a measure used to divide the total volume into either up volume (trades that moved the price up) or down volume (trades that moved the price down).
🔶 USAGE
Supply & demand zones are presented as horizontal zones across the selected range, hence adding the ability to visualize the price interaction with them
By default, the right side of the profile is the volume profile which highlights the distribution of the traded activity at different price levels, emphasizing the value area, the range of price levels in which the specified percentage of all volume was traded during the time period, and levels of significance, such as developing point of control line, value area high/low lines, and profile high/low labels
The left side of the profile is the sentiment profile which highlights the market sentiment at specific price levels
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Volume data sources

TeddyOverview
"Teddy" is an indicator that overlays up to five customizable Volume Profiles on the chart, each displaying Point of Control (POC), Value Area High (VAH), and Value Area Low (VAL). Designed for traders, it anchors profiles to user-defined time ranges, helping align traders with the ever changing auction so they are on the right side of trends, avoid choppy price action, and stay clear of overbought/oversold conditions.
Originality and Usefulness
Unlike standard Volume Profile tools, "Teddy" offers five independent profiles with flexible anchored or fixed time ranges, customizable labels, and distinct colors. This multi-profile approach reveals key price levels across different periods, enabling traders to navigate trends and avoid low-opportunity zones effectively, ideal for equities, futures, or indices.
What It Does
Plots up to five Volume Profiles, each with POC, VAH, and VAL lines.
Labels levels with customizable prefixes and price displays.
Supports anchored (start-to-present) or fixed (start-to-stop) time ranges, adjustable via inputs or chart dragging.
How It Works
Data Sources: Uses lower timeframe data (e.g., 1-minute on a 5-minute chart) to build volume distributions.
Calculations:
POC: Identifies the price with the highest traded volume in the selected range.
VAH/VAL: Defines the value area (default: 70% of volume(recommended)) around POC.
Time Ranges: Each profile starts at a user-set time, extending to the present or a stop time if fixed.
Visualization: Draws lines and labels for POC, VAH, and VAL, with customizable colors, offsets, and leftward extensions.
How It Helps Traders
"Teddy" aligns traders with the auction to help avoids pitfalls:
Staying with the Trend: Price above POC Indicates buyers are in control of the profile being studied which allows the auction to move towards VAH next. Price below POC Indicates sellers are in control of the profile being studied which allows the auction to move towards VAL next. guiding trend-following entries. Breakouts above VAH can signal an expansion opportunity for price and breakdowns below VAL can signal an expansion opportunity for price.
Avoiding Choppy Conditions: POC acts as a price anchor(magnet almost) that draws price towards it due to the high volume around this pivot— Price oscillating around POC often indicates consolidation(almost a battle between buyers and sellers); Its wise to let the battle finish to understand the true direction. Teddy also helps traders identify consolidation between ranges as buyers and sellers fight for acceptance above below in inside of one or multiple ranges. This type of structure between ranges often brings chop with it as well.
Steering Clear of Overbought/Oversold: Extreme price moves far from POC or VAH/VAL, especially in recent profiles, suggest price at premium or price at discount. This can help traders avoid chasing an extended move to the upside or the downside.
Multiple profiles provide temporal context, ensuring trades align with multiple auctions to define price at a value, at a discount or at a premium and not just fleeting noise.
How to Use It
Apply to any chart (e.g., ES 1H for futures).
Customize via inputs:
"Profile Settings": Enable/disable, set start/stop times, toggle fixed range.
"Profile Appearance": Adjust horizontal offset for labels.
"Profile Colors": Set POC, VAH, VAL colors (e.g., yellow, blue).
"Profile POC & Value Area": Adjust value area percentage (default: 70%), toggle POC/VAH/VAL display, extend lines left.
"Profile Label Customization": Set label prefixes, show prices, and text colors.
Underlying Concepts
Volume Profile: POC and VAH/VAL highlight high-volume acceptance zones, anchoring trend analysis.
Temporal Analysis: Multiple profiles reveal evolving market structure over user-defined periods.
Limitations
May require a Premium Trading view plan due to data being pulled on lower time frames such as the 1 minute. Check to ensure your plan meets these requirements.
Profiles looking back multiple months (e.g., 9 or 12 months) on lower timeframes (e.g., 1-minute) may cause memory errors or fail to load due to data limits.
Hourly or higher timeframes are best for accurate data on extended lookbacks, especially in futures markets.
Accuracy depends on lower timeframe data availability.
Levels are contextual, not guaranteed signals.
[Pandora's Chambers] Liquidity Grab Magnet Tool VDV_V6Pandora’s Chambers – Liquidity Grab Magnet Tool VDV_V6
The “Pandora’s Chambers – Liquidity Grab Magnet Tool VDV_V6” indicator is built as a mathematical function library in Pine Script® that identifies “magnet” points (local maxima) of price action density, based on a combination of frequency analysis (wick density) and Fibonacci values. The algorithm considers the distribution of wick touches within a lookback range, builds volume profiles at different price levels, and then marks the strongest dynamic support and resistance levels. This structure has been empirically proven to be particularly effective for rapid scalping, as these “magnet points” are characterized by strong market forces influencing sharp price movements.
Background and Methodology
Price Range Division into Bins: The range between the minimum and maximum price over the last N candles is divided into k equal bins.
Wick Touch Counting: For each bin, the number of times the bin center falls within the wick body of a candle is calculated.
Bullish and Bearish Candles:
For bullish candles (close > open), touches between the low and the open are counted.
For bearish candles (close < open), touches between the open and the high are counted.
Density Function: For each bin j, a density function ρ(j) = number of touches in j is obtained.
Strongest Levels: The strongest support level below the current price is arg max_{binCenter < close} ρ(j), and the resistance – above the price.
Integrated Volume Profile: For each bin, the trading volume of the candles where the bin center is included in the wick body is accumulated, adding a volume dimension to the selection of magnet points.
The Secret Algorithm
The algorithm utilizes several key constructs:
Dynamic Trailing with Sensitivity Threshold (trailTolerance): To avoid market noise, the line is redrawn only when the new point differs by Δ ≥ trailTolerance from the previous level.
Fibonacci Value Integration: After identifying support (sell-side) and resistance (buy-side) levels, Fibonacci lines are calculated at n ratios (0.0, 0.236, 0.382, 0.5, 0.618, 0.786, 1.0), with the option to extend them to additional "snap" values (1.618, 2.618). Each line also displays the corresponding trading volume in its paired bin, providing an indication of market depth at the Fibonacci point.
Visualization and Functionality:
Clear and Dynamic Colored Lines: Support is colored purple, resistance is colored cyan.
Transparent Labels: Displaying the actual volume value for each level.
“Magnet Point” Markers (red dots): Appearing upon the breakout of a line – enabling the identification of rapid scalping opportunities. Crossing of a line indicates the price "drinking liquidity." A red dot appears when the price reaches equilibrium.
Continued Liquidity: If the line moves away from the price, liquidity is expected to continue.
Key Parameters
Parameter Description
Lookback Bars Number of candles for historical analysis; size of the discrete dimension for density distribution.
Bin Count Number of bins for dividing the price range; determines the analysis resolution.
Tolerance Minimum threshold for a level change before a new line is created (to reduce noise).
Fibonacci Offsets Number of candles to the right to display Fibonacci lines with volume labels.
Show Liquidity Snap Toggle to display extended "snap" values outside the main range.
Line Width & Color Adjustable thickness, style, and color of support and resistance lines.
Label Size/Offset Adjustment of label text size and position – to prevent overlaps on the chart.
Export to Sheets
How to Use for Scalping
Identify the Magnet Point: Follow the red dot (•) the moment the price crosses a liquidity level downwards/upwards.
Parameter Adjustment: To increase sensitivity for scalping – reduce the Lookback or increase the Bin Count.
Market Depth Confirmation: Use the volume labels alongside the Fibonacci lines to confirm that the point is indeed accompanied by significant volume movement.
Mathematical Conclusion
The indicator combines statistical principles of density and historical memory with Fibonacci geometry, in a configuration that allows for the identification of reliable “magnet points.” For quantitative traders, this is a formal tool for drawing conclusions about market forces in the language of density functions and volume profiles, providing an ideal environment for rapid and precise scalps.

Historic Volume/Market ProfilesHistoric Volume/Market Profile is a Periodic Volume Profile with all of the improvements known in the original Volume/Market Profile.
VMP is a 2 in 1 Volume and Market Profile Indicator.
HVMP uses the base of VMP to offer a quick and simple view at multiple historic profiles at the same time.
This includes:
Cluster Identification for High Volume and Low Volume Areas.
Maximizing granularity by utilizing boxes and lines to get up to 1000 rows.
New Inclusions in HVMP vs VMP:
HVMP granularity is determined by the # of profiles on display. By doing this, each profile will get an even amount of allocated rows to use and granularity is scaled per-profile, to fit within the row allowance.
For Example: 1000/(# of profiles) = Maximum # of rows per profile.
HVMP introduces the "Auto-Scale" Option (on by Default), this automatically fits each profile within the defined timeframe period to provide a consistent display when switching timeframes.
Even with "Auto-Scale" enabled, "Display Size" dictates which direction the profile is displayed.
Below is a Negative Display Size (Displays from right to left, starting at the end of the period)
Below is a Positive Display Size (Displays from left to right, starting at the beginning of the period)

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
Delta Flow Profile [LuxAlgo]The Delta Flow Profile is a charting tool that tracks and visualizes money flow and the difference between buying and selling pressure accumulated within multiple price ranges over a specified period. It reveals the relationship between an asset's price and traders' willingness to buy or sell, helping traders identify significant price levels and analyze market activity.
The Normalized Profile displays the percentage of money flow at each price level relative to the maximum money flow level, enabling traders to easily compare levels and understand the relative importance of each price point in the context of overall trading activity.
🔶 USAGE
The Delta Flow Profile is made of two principal components with different usability, each one of them described in the sub-sections below.
🔹 Money Flow Profile
The Money Flow Profile illustrates the total buying and selling activity at different price ranges. By analyzing this profile, users can identify key price zones with substantial buying or selling pressure. These zones can often act as potential support or resistance.
The rows of the Money Flow Profile represent the trading activity at specific price ranges over a given period.
A normalized profile is included to compare each zone relative to the peak money flow using a percentage, with 100% indicating that a price range is the one with the highest accumulated money flow.
🔹 Delta Profile
The Delta Profile assesses the dominant sentiment (buying or selling) from volume delta at different price levels to gauge market sentiment and potential reversals.
Delta Profile rows with more significant buying or selling volume indicate dominance from one side of the market in that specific price area. Price coming back to that area might indicate willingness from a dominant side to further accumulate orders within it, potentially causing price to follow the direction established by this dominant side afterward.
The volume delta is determined from the user-selected Polarity Method, with "Bar Polarity" using candle sentiment to determine if a bar associated volume is buying or selling volume, and "Bar Buying/Selling Pressure" making use of the high/low price to obtain more precise results.
🔹 Level of Significance
Users can quickly highlight the price levels with the highest recorded money flow activity through the included "Level of Significance". Various display methods are included:
Developing: Show the price level with the highest recorded money flow activity spanning over the indicator calculation interval.
Level: Show the price level with the highest recorded money flow activity.
Row: Show the price zone with the highest recorded money flow activity.
These levels/zones can be used as potential support/resistance points and can serve as a reference of where prices might go next for market participants to accumulate orders.
🔶 SETTINGS
The script offers a range of customizable settings to tailor the analysis to your trading needs.
🔹 Calculation Settings
Money Flow Profile: Toggles the visibility of the Money Flow Profile.
Normalized: Toggles the visibility of the Normalized Profile.
Sentiment Profile: Toggles the visibility of the Sentiment Profile.
Polarity Method: Choose between Bar Polarity or Bar Buying/Selling Pressure to calculate the Sentiment Profile.
Level of Significance: Toggles the visibility of the level of significance line/zone.

Dynamic Volume Trace Profile [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
Dynamic Volume Trace Profile is a reimagined take on volume profile analysis. Instead of plotting a static horizontal histogram on the side of your chart, this indicator projects dynamic volume trace lines directly onto the price action. Each bin is color-graded according to its relative strength, creating a living “volume skeleton” of the market. The orange trace highlights the current Point of Control (POC)—the price level with maximum historical traded volume within the lookback window. On the right side, the tool builds a mini profile, showing absolute volume per bin alongside its percentage share, where the POC always represents 100% strength .
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Dynamic On-Chart Bins:
The range between highest high and lowest low is split into 25 bins. Each bin is drawn as a horizontal trace line across the lookback chart period.
Gradient Color Encoding:
Trace lines fade from transparent to teal depending on relative volume size. The more intense the teal, the stronger the historical traded activity at that level.
Automatic POC Highlight:
The bin with the highest aggregated volume is flagged with an orange line . This POC adapts bar-by-bar as volume distribution shifts.
Right-Side Volume Profile:
At the chart’s right edge, the script prints a box-style profile. Each bin shows:
• Total volume (absolute units).
• Percentage of max volume, in parentheses (POC bin = 100%).
This gives both raw and normalized context at a glance.
Adjustable Lookback Window:
The lookback defines how many bars feed the profile. Increase for stable HTF zones or decrease for responsive intraday distributions.
POC Toggle & Styling:
Optionally toggle POC highlighting on/off, adjust colors, and set line thickness for better integration with your chart theme.
⯁ HOW IT WORKS (UNDER THE HOOD)
Step Sizing:
over last 100 bars is divided by to calculate bin height.
Volume Aggregation:
For each bar in the , the script checks which bin the close falls into, then adds that bar’s volume to the bin’s counter.
Gradient Mapping:
Bin volume is normalized against the max volume across all bins. That value is mapped onto a gradient from transparent → teal.
POC Logic:
The bin with highest volume is colored orange both on the dynamic trace and in the right-side profile.
Right-Hand Profile:
Boxes are drawn for each bin proportional to volume / maxVolume × 50 units, with text labels showing both absolute volume and normalized %.
⯁ USAGE
Use the orange trace as the dominant “magnet” level—price often gravitates to the POC.
Watch for clusters of strong teal traces as areas of high acceptance; thin or faint zones mark low-liquidity gaps prone to fast moves.
On intraday charts, tighten lookback to reveal session-based distributions . For swing or position trading, expand lookback to surface more durable volume shelves.
Compare the right-side profile % to judge how “top-heavy” or “bottom-heavy” the current distribution is.
Use bright, intense color traces as context for confluence with structure, OBs, or liquidity hunts.
⯁ CONCLUSION
Dynamic Volume Trace Profile takes the traditional volume profile and fuses it into the body of price itself. Instead of a fixed sidebar, you see gradient traces layered directly on the chart, giving real-time context of where volume concentrated and where price may be drawn. With built-in POC highlighting, normalized % readouts, and an adaptive right-side profile, it offers both precision levels and market structure awareness in a cleaner, more intuitive form.
