Fair Value Gap (FVG) Oscillator [UAlgo]The "Fair Value Gap (FVG) Oscillator " is designed to identify and visualize Fair Value Gaps (FVG) within a given lookback period on a trading chart. This indicator helps traders by highlighting areas where price gaps may signify potential trading opportunities, specifically bullish and bearish patterns. By leveraging volume and Average True Range (ATR) data, the FVG Oscillator aims to enhance the accuracy of pattern recognition and provide more reliable signals for trading decisions.
🔶 Identification of Fair Value Gap (FVG)
Fair Value Gaps (FVG) are specific price areas where gaps occur, and they are often considered significant in technical analysis. These gaps can indicate potential future price movements as the market may return to fill these gaps. This indicator identifies two types of FVGs:
Bullish FVG: Occurs when the current low price is higher than the high price two periods ago. This condition suggests a potential upward price movement.
Obtains with:
low > high
Bearish FVG: Occurs when the current high price is lower than the low price two periods ago. This condition suggests a potential downward price movement.
Obtains with:
high < low
The FVG Oscillator not only identifies these gaps but also verifies them using volume and ATR conditions to ensure more reliable trading signals.
🔶 Key Features
Lookback Period: Users can set the lookback period to determine how far back the indicator should search for FVG patterns.
ATR Multiplier: The ATR Multiplier is used to adjust the sensitivity of the ATR-based conditions for verifying FVG patterns.
Volume SMA Period: This setting determines the period for the Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the volume, which helps in identifying high volume conditions.
Why ATR and Volume are Used?
ATR (Average True Range) and volume are integrated into the Fair Value Gap (FVG) Oscillator to enhance the accuracy and reliability of the identified patterns. ATR measures market volatility, helping to filter out insignificant price gaps and focus on impactful ones, ensuring that the signals are relevant and strong. Volume, on the other hand, confirms the strength of price movements. High volume often indicates the sustainability of these movements, reducing the likelihood of false signals. Together, ATR and volume ensure that the detected FVGs are both significant and supported by market activity, providing more trustworthy trading signals.
Normalized Values: The FVG counts are normalized to enhance the visual representation and interpretation of the patterns on the chart.
Visual Customization and Plotting: Users can customize the colors for positive (bullish) and negative (bearish) areas, and choose whether to display these areas on the chart, also plots the bullish and bearish FVG counts, a zero line, and the net value of FVG counts. Additionally, it uses histograms to display the width of verified bullish and bearish patterns.

BooBee Digital - Enhanced Buy & Sell Alerts Suite
BooBee Digital - Enhanced Buy & Sell Alerts Suite
Introduction:
The “BooBee Digital - Enhanced Buy & Sell Alerts Suite” is a comprehensive trading tool designed to provide traders with precise buy and sell signals by integrating the Average True Range (ATR) trailing stop technique and the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) indicator. This script is tailored to help traders make informed decisions by considering both market volatility and trading volume.
How It Works:
1. ATR Calculation:
• Purpose: Measures market volatility to set dynamic stop levels.
• Details: The Average True Range (ATR) is calculated over a user-defined period. The ATR value reflects the average range of price movements over the specified period, which is crucial for assessing market volatility.
2. ATR Trailing Stop:
• Purpose: Identifies potential trend reversals by setting trailing stops based on market volatility.
• Details: The ATR trailing stop is dynamically adjusted using the ATR value and a user-defined sensitivity factor. This trailing stop level helps identify trend reversals by moving in accordance with price fluctuations.
3. VWAP Calculation:
• Purpose: Provides a volume-weighted average price to benchmark fair value.
• Details: The VWAP is calculated by taking the sum of the product of price and volume, divided by the total volume. This indicator gives traders a reference point for the average price at which the asset has traded throughout the day, considering trading volume.
4. EMA Crossover:
• Purpose: Adds a confirmation layer for buy and sell signals.
• Details: A 1-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is used to identify short-term price movements. Buy and sell signals are generated based on the crossover of the EMA and the ATR trailing stop, adding an extra layer of confirmation for trade entries and exits.
Signal Generation:
Buy Signal:
• Generated when the price is above the ATR trailing stop and there is a bullish crossover of the EMA and ATR trailing stop.
• Indicator: Green label below the bar with “Buy” text.
Sell Signal:
• Generated when the price is below the ATR trailing stop and there is a bearish crossover of the EMA and ATR trailing stop.
• Indicator: Red label above the bar with “Sell” text.
VWAP Line:
• The VWAP line is plotted on the chart to help traders identify significant price levels based on trading volume.
• Indicator: Blue line representing the VWAP.
How to Use:
• Chart Type: The script is designed for use on standard chart types such as Candlestick and OHLC. It does not support non-standard chart types like Heikin Ashi, Renko, Kagi, Point & Figure, and Range, as they may produce unrealistic results.
• Clean Chart: Ensure your chart is clean and free of other indicators to avoid confusion. The signals and colors plotted by the script should be easily identifiable.
• Trade Confirmation: Use the buy and sell signals generated by the script in conjunction with other analysis methods to confirm trades.
Key Concepts:
• ATR Trailing Stop: This technique sets dynamic stop levels based on market volatility, helping to identify trend reversals.
• VWAP: This indicator provides a benchmark for the average price considering trading volume, helping traders identify fair value.
• EMA Crossover: This adds a layer of confirmation for buy and sell signals, improving the accuracy of trade entries and exits.
Aggressor Volume ImbalanceAggressor volume imbalance represents the ratio between market aggressor buy volume (market buy orders) and market aggressor sell volume (market sell orders). This ratio enables traders to evaluate the interest of market aggressors and whether aggressive market activity favours the price's direction.
Analysing aggressor volume is critical in understanding market sentiment and aids in identifying shifts in momentum and potential exhaustion points in the market. When the aggressor buy volume significantly exceeds the sell volume, it typically indicates strong buying interest, driving prices higher if the offer-side liquidity cannot contain it, and vice versa.
How it Works
The imbalance ratio is calculated as follows, according to the selected session timeframe (see settings):
imbalance := ((buyVolumeAccumulator - sellVolumeAccumulator)
/ (buyVolumeAccumulator + sellVolumeAccumulator)) * 100
Aggressive Volume Imbalance uses lower timeframe historical data to calculate Historical Aggressor Volume Imbalances, while live data is used for live aggressor volume imbalances.
How to Use It
You can set the indicator to use any historical data timeframe you prefer. However, it is highly recommended to use lower timeframes (e.g., 1 second), as the lower the timeframe, the more granular the data.
The indicator resets to 0% whenever a new session timeframe begins (e.g., a new day) and calculates new values for the rest of the session. This can be configured in the settings.
Candle Patterns with Volume ValidationHey Guys !
█ This indicator shows validated Hammer and Shooting Star candle patterns based on volume.
This indicator identifies Hammer and Shooting Star patterns and validates them using volume analysis.
Hammer and Shooting Star patterns are candlestick patterns that signal potential reversals in the market.
█ Usages:
A hammer is formed when in a session, the price has fallen, only to reverse and recover to close back near the opening price. This is a sign of strength with the selling having been absorbed in sufficient strength for the buyers to overwhelm the sellers, allowing the market to recover. The hammer is so called as it is ‘hammering out a bottom’, and just like the shooting star, is immensely powerful when combined with Volume Price Analysis (VPA).
The shooting star is a bearish reversal pattern that appears at the top of uptrends. It signifies that prices have peaked and a downward reversal is likely. The presence of high volume strengthens this signal, indicating that the insiders are offloading their positions.
When combined with volume analysis, these patterns become powerful signals. The volume provides context to the price action, helping traders confirm the validity of the pattern. For example, a hammer with high volume suggests strong buying interest, whereas a shooting star with high volume indicates strong selling pressure.
█ Features:
• Detects Hammer and Shooting Star patterns.
• Validates patterns with volume thresholds.
• Color codes patterns based on volume validation.
• Allows customization of volume thresholds and pattern criteria.
• Option to show or hide signals.
█ Parameters:
• Volume Average Period: The period used to calculate the average volume.
• Higher Volume Multiplier: Multiplier to define higher volume threshold.
• Much Higher Volume Multiplier: Multiplier to define much higher volume threshold.
• Enormous Volume Multiplier: Multiplier to define enormous volume threshold.
• Body/Shadow Ratio for Hammer and Shooting Star: Ratio of body to shadow for pattern validation.
• Upper Shadow Limit for Hammer: Upper shadow limit for Hammer pattern.
• Lower Shadow Limit for Shooting Star: Lower shadow limit for Shooting Star pattern.
• Show Hammer Signals: Display signals for Hammer patterns.
• Show Shooting Star Signals: Display signals for Shooting Star patterns.

Significant Volume with Price Changes HighlightedSignificant Volume with Price Changes Highlighted
The "Significant Volume with Price Changes Highlighted" indicator by PappyTrading is a powerful tool designed to help traders identify significant volume spikes and price changes in the market. This indicator overlays the volume bars on the price chart and highlights them based on specific volume and price change conditions, providing a clear visual representation of market activity.
What It Does
This indicator calculates the moving average of the volume over a specified period and compares the current volume to this average. It also calculates the daily percentage change relative to the previous day's close and compares this to its moving average. The volume bars are then color-coded based on the following conditions:
Bright Green (#089981): Indicates a significant volume spike with an above-average price increase.
Bright Red (#f23645): Indicates a significant volume spike with an above-average price decrease.
Green with 60% transparency: Indicates a normal up day with a price increase but not a significant volume spike.
Red with 60% transparency: Indicates a normal down day with a price decrease but not a significant volume spike.
Additionally, the indicator plots a 20-period simple moving average (SMA) of the volume, providing a reference point to understand the general volume trend.
How It Works
Volume Calculation:
The indicator calculates the 20-period SMA of the volume and compares the current volume to this average to determine if there is a significant volume spike.
Price Change Calculation:
The indicator calculates the daily percentage change in price relative to the previous day's close and compares this to the 20-period SMA of the percentage change to identify significant price movements.
Color Coding:
The volume bars are color-coded based on the combination of the volume and price change conditions. This visual representation allows traders to quickly identify significant market activities.
How to Use It
Overlay on Chart:
Add the "Significant Volume with Price Changes Highlighted" indicator to your chart. The volume bars will be displayed at the bottom of the chart, color-coded based on the conditions described above.
Identify Market Activity:
Use the color-coded volume bars to identify significant market activities. Bright green bars indicate strong buying pressure, while bright red bars indicate strong selling pressure. Transparent green and red bars indicate normal market activity without significant volume spikes.
Volume Moving Average:
The blue line represents the 20-period SMA of the volume. Use this as a reference to understand the general volume trend and identify deviations from the average.
Concepts Underlying the Calculations
Volume Spikes: Significant volume spikes often precede or accompany major market moves. By highlighting these spikes, traders can gain insights into potential market turning points or continuation patterns.
Price Changes: Large price changes relative to the previous day's close indicate strong market momentum. By comparing these changes to their moving average, the indicator helps traders identify unusually strong buying or selling pressure.

Weighted Volume Profile | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Weighted Volume Profile Indicator! This indicator renders a volume profile based on the volume of latest candlesticks. It can be adjusted to give more weight to recent or past candlesticks, or can be used as a normal volume profile. For more information, please read the full write-up.
Features of the new Weighted Volume Profile indicator :
Renders Volume Profile Of Current Ticker
Adjustable Weighthing Towards Past or Recent
Customizable Row Count & Maximum Distance
Left or Right Alignment
More Styling Options
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator differs from a normal volume profile indicator by it's ability to weight volumes based on their distance to the current time. Giving weight to volumes may offer new trading opportunities to traders as they can now see the most recent Point Of Control (POC) or a more powerful but past POC based on their choice. The indicator also has a variety of useful styling settings such as aligning the volume profile to the right or the left of the chart, POC Line styling and color settings for bullish & bearish volumes.
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
A volume profile provides an in-depth look at trading activity over a period of time by plotting a histogram on the price axis. This indicator can also give weight to volumes based on their distance to the current time, essentially determining their importance for the profile. Here is how it works step-by-step :
1. Determine how much candlesticks the volume profile will cover (Analyze Bars setting)
2. Make a range from the highest point of chart to the lowest point of chart, then divide it into rows (Row Count setting)
3. For each candlestick, add it's volume to the corresponding row in the range. Note that the volume can be added into several rows if it overlaps with them.
4. If the candlestick is a bullish candlestick, we add it's volume into the bullish volume of the row, if it's a bearish candlestick, we add it to the bearish volume of the row.
With the weighted volume mode, which is activated if "Volume Weighthing" setting is set to "Recent" or "Past", all volumes get a penalty based on their distance to the latest candletstick. For example, if the setting is set to "Recent", the latest candlestick contributes it's volume by 100% to the corresponding row, but the candlestick which is 50 candlesticks far from the current candlestick only contributes it's volume by ~17% to the row. The same applies to the "Past" setting, but in the reversed order, where past candlesticks have more priority than the current ones.
Volume contribution percent for "Recent" setting : ((100 * 0.85) / (i + 1)) + (100 * (1.0 - 0.85))
Volume contribution percent for "Past" setting : ((100 * 0.85) * ((i + 1) / N)) + (100 * (1.0 - 0.85))
Where i = candlestick index from right to left, N = total number of candlesticks analyzed by the volume profile.
The Point Of Control (POC) line is drawn from the row with the most total volume, and is generally considered as a strong level because a lot of trading volume happened on that particular row. Traders may use this line as a support & resistance level.
Traders can use this indicator to have an insight of areas which price moves quickly without much volume, or see areas that holds the price still for much longer and plan their trades accordingly.
⚙️SETTINGS

Advanced Order Blocks by AccountantXThe "Advanced Order Blocks by AccountantX" is tool designed to identify and visualize significant order blocks in the market.
This script goes beyond traditional order block detection by integrating advanced features such as volume threshold filtering, ATR-based sizing, and higher timeframe considerations.
How It works:
A. General data :
- Order Block Detection: Identifies bullish and bearish order blocks based on swing highs and lows, with options to filter by volume thresholds to ensure significant levels.
- Volume Threshold: Only displays order blocks where the volume exceeds a user-defined threshold, ensuring the highlighted zones are of particular significance.
- ATR-Based Sizing: Offers the option to use the Average True Range (ATR) for sizing order blocks, allowing for dynamic adjustment based on market volatility.
- Higher Timeframe Integration: Includes the ability to display order blocks from a higher timeframe, providing a broader market perspective.
- Customizable Appearance: Users can customize the colors and transparency of the order blocks, ensuring they fit seamlessly with any chart setup.
B. Code explanation :
- The script allows you to set a minimum volume threshold. Order blocks are only shown if the volume during their formation exceeds this threshold, ensuring that only significant price levels are highlighted.
- When enabled, the ATR (Average True Range) is used to size the order blocks. This means the height of the blocks adjusts dynamically with market volatility, providing a more accurate representation of significant zones.
- The script can display order blocks from a higher timeframe on your current chart. This is useful for aligning shorter-term trading decisions with broader market trends.
C. How to Use:
a) Set the volume threshold to filter out less significant order blocks. Adjust the value according to the typical volume of your trading instrument;
b) Enable the ATR-based sizing and set the period and multiplier to match your trading style. This helps in identifying order blocks relative to market volatility;
c) Choose a higher timeframe if you want to see significant order blocks from a broader market perspective. This can help in making more informed trading decisions.

Pivot Point Profile [LuxAlgo]The Pivot Point Profile indicator groups and displays data accumulated from previous pivot points, providing a comprehensive method for prioritizing and displaying areas of interest directly given by swing highs and lows.
Users have access to common settings present in other profile-type indicators.
🔶 USAGE
The Pivot Point Profile is particularly helpful in identifying highly active reversal zones that have been visited multiple times by price. Because of this, we could generally expect these areas to serve as future points of interest, often acting as support or resistance when re-visited.
The profile displays data associated with both Pivot Highs and Pivot Lows. Each row consists of pivot high and pivot low counts side-by-side, forming the total width of the row.
By analyzing the row as a whole, we can gain a better understanding of WHERE to look for interactions.
By analyzing the pivot counts independently, we can gain a better understanding of WHAT to expect when returning to these areas.
For example:
If a row in the profile contains entirely Pivot Lows, this could be seen as an indication to look for buyers to hold that level for a continuation upwards. A break of this level could be interpreted as a lack of interest from previous buyers at this level, indicating a further move down.
🔹 Concentrated Areas
Each row in the profile displays the current count of high pivots and low pivots within the selected lookback. The largest count for each pivot direction is identified as a "Concentrated Area (CA)", these CAs are highlighted over the chart with a line displaying the average of all pivots within that CA. The CA Average is the average of all pivot points (in the majority direction) within the given row.
These can hold more importance as potential support/resistance areas.
Note: The CA Threshold can be manually adjusted to highlight all rows based on a user-selected value.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Calculation
The idea behind the Pivot Point Profile is a new analysis method for pivot points, taking the idea of a volume profile and adapting it to display pivot points instead of volume. By using this data, in theory, we should be able to better prioritize zones to anticipate reversals, as well as identify key levels to watch for buyer & seller interactions to use as confirmations in direction.
The (vertical) width of each row is the product of the script's "Row Size", this is the number of rows that the profile will consist of. With a max of 250, the profile can be decently granular. That being said, A more granular profile will have fewer overlapping pivot points. By decreasing the row size (Using fewer rows in the profile) you will increase the tolerance for grouping pivot points. Potentially leading to a more comprehensive Profile. Inversely, By reducing the tolerance for grouping, you will better visualize only similar highs and lows but may have noisier data to sift through.
The Profile is calculated based on a "Lookback" parameter, using only the lookback amount of previous high and low pivots to calculate the profile. Configuring this parameter alongside "Pivot Length", will allow for great control over the frame of reference of the profile.
Note: This indicator is capable of utilizing the full chart history of pivot points, this can be done by enabling the "Use Full Chart History" setting, this will cause the script will calculate from everything it has access to on your current chart.
🔹 Display
The Pivot Point Profile display can be customized to fit a various range of chart styles and visual needs. The specific settings to adjust these can be located in the "Profile Display" Section of the User Inputs.
Profile Width: Sets the Left to Right Width of the Profile. This is the maximum width that the profile will occupy and will scale to fit within this width.
Profile Offset: Sets the distance of the Profile's Axis from the current chart candle. This moves the entire profile left and right to enable to user to set the distance between the profile and the current candle.
Direction: Changes the display direction of the profile, allowing for "Left", "Right", or "Center" display styles.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Pivot Point Parameters
Pivot Type: Choose between "Fractal Pivots" or "SMC Structure" to use as the basis for pivots.
Length: Sets the length for the pivot calculations.
🔹 Profile Calculations Parameters
Lookback: Sets the number of pivots to calculate within, in increments of high and low pairs. (Setting this to 1 = 1 Pivot High & 1 Pivot Low)
Use Full Chart History: Disregards the set lookback and instead uses all available chart data to calculate from.
Row Size: Sets the total number of rows to calculate the profile with.
🔹 Profile Display
Profile Width: Sets the max left & right width (in bars) that the profile will occupy.
Profile Offset: Sets the distance of the profile axis from the last chart bar.
Direction: Sets the display direction
🔹 Concentrated Areas
Highlight CAs: Extends the rows left from concentrated areas.
CA Threshold: Manually set the threshold for determining concentrated areas, when disabled, only the largest rows will be displayed.
CA Averages: Toggles the concentrated area averages for each pivot direction.
Note: CA Averages can be displayed independently without CA Highlights being displayed, and vice versa.

VWAP Bands [UAlgo]The "VWAP Bands " indicator is designed to provide traders with valuable insights into market trends and potential support/resistance levels using Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) bands. This indicator integrates the core concepts of VWAP with additional trend analysis features, making it a versatile tool for both range trading and trend-following strategies.
The VWAP bands are plotted based on the standard deviation multipliers, creating upper and lower bands around the VWAP. These bands serve as dynamic support and resistance levels. When the price approaches these bands, traders can anticipate potential reversals or continuations of the current trend. Additionally, the indicator provides visual cues for trend strength and potential trend changes, helping traders make informed decisions in various market conditions.
🔶 Settings
Source (Data Source): The data source for VWAP calculations. The default setting is the typical price (HLC3), which is the average of the high, low, and close prices.
Length: The number of bars used in the VWAP calculation. This determines the lookback period for the indicator.
Standard Deviation Multiplier: The multiplier applied to the standard deviation to create the primary upper and lower VWAP bands. This setting controls the distance of the bands from the VWAP.
Secondary Standard Deviation Multiplier: The multiplier applied to the standard deviation to create the secondary upper and lower VWAP bands, providing additional levels of support and resistance.
Display Trend: A toggle to enable or disable the display of the trend analysis feature. When enabled, the indicator highlights trend strength and potential trend changes.
Display Trend Crossovers: A toggle to enable or disable the display of trend crossover signals. When enabled, the indicator plots shapes to indicate where trend switches are likely occurring.
🔶 Calculations
The calculations behind the "VWAP Bands " indicator begin with determining the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP), which provides a comprehensive view of the average price of an asset, weighted by trading volume. This gives a more accurate representation of the asset's true average price over a specified period.
The first step in this process involves summing the trading volume over a chosen period, typically represented by the length parameter. Simultaneously, the product of the price (usually an average of the high, low, and close prices) and the trading volume is calculated and summed. By dividing this cumulative price-volume product by the total volume, we obtain the VWAP value. This VWAP serves as the central anchor around which the price action oscillates.
To enhance the utility of VWAP, we introduce standard deviation calculations. Standard deviation measures the extent of price dispersion from the VWAP, providing insight into price volatility. By calculating the variance (which involves the squared deviations of price) and then taking its square root, we derive the standard deviation. This helps in understanding how far prices typically stray from the VWAP.
With the VWAP and standard deviation in hand, we then establish upper and lower bands by adding and subtracting multiples of the standard deviation from the VWAP. These bands act as dynamic support and resistance levels, adapting to changes in market volatility. The primary bands, set by the first standard deviation multiplier, are augmented by secondary bands defined by a larger multiplier, offering additional layers of potential support and resistance.
It also integrates trend analysis, highlighting areas where the price action suggests a strong or weak trend. This is achieved by overlaying colored zones above and below the bands, indicating the strength and direction of the trend. When the price crosses these bands, it signals potential trend changes, aiding traders in making timely decisions.
🔶 Disclaimer
The "VWAP Bands " indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only. It is not intended as financial advice and should not be construed as such.
Trading involves significant risk and may not be suitable for all investors. Before using this indicator or making any investment decisions, it is important to conduct thorough research and consider your financial situation.
COT IndexReference:
Trade Stocks and Commodities with the Insiders
Secrets of the COT Report by Larry Williams pg34
The equation is as below:
Current week's value- Lowest value of last three years
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- X 100%
Highest high of last three years-Lowest low of last three years
According to Larry Williams, traders should follow commercials direction. When the commercial index line (yellow line) is above 80, this indicates commercials are bullish. Hence, traders can look for potential buy setup. Conversely, when commercials index line (yellow line) is below 20, this indicates commercials are bearish, we can look for sell setup.
Do note that this is only applicable on Weekly chart as COT reports come out on weekly basis.
Modification from the original COT index from Larry Williams:
1) I've added 1year and 6months period, so traders maybe can look for pullback using shorter period. By default, Larry Williams uses 3 years Commercial index.
2) I've added non-commercials and retail traders index, they basically trade opposite way of commercials.
This indicator should not be used as a timing tool or entry tool, you can use it as your weekly or monthly bias tool. For more information, please read the books. Feel free to modify the code, if u have a better version of this, you may share to me if you want, I will be very grateful!
Matt Liq LinesIndicator Overview
The "Matt Liq Lines" indicator is designed to help traders identify significant price levels where high-volume trading occurred. These levels are often referred to as liquidation levels and can act as support or resistance in the market. The indicator plots horizontal lines on the chart at these identified levels, helping traders make informed decisions based on volume spikes.
Key Features
Volume Multiplier: A user-defined threshold to identify high-volume candles. If a candle's volume is greater than the average volume multiplied by this multiplier, it is considered a high-volume candle.
Lookback Period: The period over which the average volume is calculated. This helps in smoothing out volume data to identify significant spikes.
Max Levels: The maximum number of liquidation levels to display on the chart. This helps in keeping the chart clean and focuses on the most relevant levels.
Indicator Components
Average Volume Calculation:
avgVolume = ta.sma(volume, lookbackPeriod)
Calculates the simple moving average (SMA) of the volume over the specified lookback period.
High Volume Identification:
highVolume = volume > (avgVolume * volumeMultiplier)
Identifies if the current candle's volume is greater than the average volume multiplied by the volume multiplier.
Liquidation Levels Storage:
Uses arrays to store the levels, their corresponding bar indices, and volumes.
Adding Liquidation Levels:
When a high-volume candle is identified, its open price is added as a liquidation level. If the maximum number of levels is exceeded, the oldest level is removed to make room for the new one.
Cleaning Levels:
A function f_clean_levels removes crossed levels (where the price has already moved above and below the level) and keeps the levels with the highest volumes.

Volume-Adjusted Bollinger BandsThe Volume-Adjusted Bollinger Bands (VABB) indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool that enhances the traditional Bollinger Bands by incorporating volume data. This integration allows the bands to dynamically adjust based on market volume, providing a more nuanced view of price movements and volatility. The key qualities of the VABB indicator include:
1. Dynamic Adjustment with Volume: Traditional Bollinger Bands are based solely on price data and standard deviations. The VABB indicator adjusts the width of the bands based on the volume ratio, making them more responsive to changes in market activity. This means that during periods of high volume, the bands will expand, and during periods of low volume, they will contract. This adjustment helps to reinforce the significance of price movements relative to the central line (VWMA).
2. Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA): Instead of using a simple moving average (SMA) as the central line, the VABB uses the VWMA, which weights prices by volume. This provides a more accurate representation of the average price level, considering the trading volume.
3. Enhanced Signal Reliability: By incorporating volume, the VABB can filter out false signals that might occur in low-volume conditions. This makes the indicator particularly useful for identifying significant price movements that are supported by strong trading activity.
How to Use and Interpret the VABB Indicator
To use the VABB indicator, you need to set it up on your trading platform with the following parameters:
1. BB Length: The number of periods for calculating the Bollinger Bands (default is 20).
2. BB Multiplier: The multiplier for the standard deviation to set the width of the Bollinger Bands (default is 2.0).
3. Volume MA Length: The number of periods for calculating the moving average of the volume (default is 14).
Volume Ratio Smoothing Length: The number of periods for smoothing the volume ratio (default is 5).
Interpretation
1.Trend Identification: The VWMA serves as the central line. When the price is above the VWMA, it indicates an uptrend, and when it is below, it indicates a downtrend. The direction of the VWMA itself can also signal the trend's strength.
2. Volatility and Volume Analysis: The width of the VABB bands reflects both volatility and volume. Wider bands indicate high volatility and/or high volume, suggesting significant price movements. Narrower bands indicate low volatility and/or low volume, suggesting consolidation.
3. Trading Signals:
Breakouts: A price move outside the adjusted upper or lower bands can signal a potential breakout. High volume during such moves reinforces the breakout's validity.
Reversals: When the price touches or crosses the adjusted upper band, it may indicate overbought conditions, while touching or crossing the adjusted lower band may indicate oversold conditions. These conditions can signal potential reversals, especially if confirmed by other indicators or volume patterns.
Volume Confirmation: The volume ratio component helps confirm the strength of price movements. For instance, a breakout accompanied by a high volume ratio is more likely to be sustained than one with a low volume ratio.
Practical Example
Bullish Scenario: If the price crosses above the adjusted upper band with a high volume ratio, it suggests a strong bullish breakout. Traders might consider entering a long position, setting a stop-loss just below the VWMA or the lower band.
Bearish Scenario: Conversely, if the price crosses below the adjusted lower band with a high volume ratio, it suggests a strong bearish breakout. Traders might consider entering a short position, setting a stop-loss just above the VWMA or the upper band.
Conclusion
The Volume-Adjusted Bollinger Bands (VABB) indicator is a powerful tool that enhances traditional Bollinger Bands by incorporating volume data. This dynamic adjustment helps traders better understand market conditions and make more informed trading decisions. By using the VABB indicator, traders can identify significant price movements supported by volume, improving the reliability of their trading signals.

Practical Application of VWAP Bands
Understanding VWAP
VWAP is a trading benchmark that calculates the average price a security has traded at throughout the day based on volume and price. It is primarily used for intraday trading but can also offer insights during end-of-day reviews.
Using VWAP for Trading
Intraday Trading
Entry and Exit Points: VWAP can help identify optimal buy and sell points. Buy when the price is above VWAP and sell when it's below.
Support and Resistance: VWAP often acts as a dynamic support/resistance level. Prices tend to revert to VWAP, making it a crucial level for intraday traders.
Trend Confirmation
Uptrends and Downtrends: In an uptrend, the price will generally stay above VWAP. Conversely, in a downtrend, it will stay below. Use this to confirm market direction.
Combining with Other Indicators
Moving Averages and Bollinger Bands: Combining VWAP with these indicators can provide a more robust trading signal, confirming trends and potential reversals.
Setting Stop-Loss and Profit Targets
Conservative Stop Orders: Place stop orders at recent lows for pullback trades.
Profit Targets: Use daily highs or Fibonacci extension levels to set profit targets.
Strategies for Using VWAP
Pullback Strategy
Buy during pullbacks to VWAP in an uptrend, and sell during rallies to VWAP in a downtrend.
Breakout Strategy
Look for breakouts above/below VWAP after the market open to capitalize on new trends.
Momentum Trading
Use VWAP to confirm the strength of a trend. Buy when the price is consistently above VWAP and sell when it's consistently below.
Institutional Strategies
Institutional traders use VWAP to execute large orders without causing significant market impact, ensuring trades are made around the average price.
By incorporating these strategies, traders can better understand market dynamics, make informed trading decisions, and manage their risk effectively.
