R Dominante by Mata (CRT Madre + CRT Interior)Dominant Range (Green + Red + Outstanding Lines)
This script automatically identifies the dominant parent candle (CRT – Candle Range Theory) and draws its range with a green box. It also allows you to create independent red parent candles that function autonomously.
Main Features:
Main Green Box: Represents the dominant parent candle, following the actual CRT:
It is activated and remains active while the price reaches the extremes.
It is only invalidated if there is a close outside the range.
It is automatically deactivated when it reaches both extremes (high and low).
Independent Red Box: Detects ranges independent of the green box and is deactivated when both extremes are reached.
Fully Automatic: No manual range adjustments required.
Configuration: Adjust the transparency of the boxes and the maximum number of bars to review.
Recommended Use:
Ideal for traders who apply Candle Range Theory (CRT).
Allows for clear identification of dominant and secondary ranges.
Useful for determining touch points of extremes and planning strategic entries and exits.

Fractional Candlestick Long Only Experimental V10Fractional Candlestick Long-Only Strategy – Technical Description
This document provides a professional English description of the "Fractional Candlestick Long Only Experimental V6" strategy using pure CF/AB fractional kernels and wavelet-based filtering.
1. Fractional Candlesticks (CF / AB)
The strategy computes two fractional representations of price using Caputo–Fabrizio (CF) and Atangana–Baleanu (AB) kernels. These provide long-memory filtering without EMA approximations. Both CF and AB versions are applied to O/H/L/C, producing fractional candlesticks and fractional Heikin-Ashi variants.
2. Trend Stack Logic
Trend confirmation is based on a 4-component stack:
- CF close > AB close
- HA_CF close > HA_AB close
- HA_CF bullish
- HA_AB bullish
The user selects how many components must align (4, 3, or any 2).
3. Wavelet Filtering
A wavelet transform (Haar, Daubechies-4, Mexican Hat) is applied to a chosen source (e.g., HA_CF close). The wavelet response is used as:
- entry filter (4 modes)
- exit filter (4 modes)
Wavelet modes: off, confirm, wavelet-only, block adverse signals.
4. Trailing System
Trailing stop uses fractional AB low × buffer, providing long-memory dynamic trailing behavior. A fractional trend channel (CF/AB lows vs HA highs) is also plotted.
5. Exit Framework
Exit options include: stack flip, CF
Volume Pressure and PercentVPP Volume Pressure and Percentage Indicator with a Volume Trendline that indicates which side is driving the flow.
Features:
1. Buy/Sell Pressure Bars (Core Volume Split)
The indicator separates each candle’s volume into buy volume (green) above the zero line and sell volume (red) below it. This gives you a real-time visualization of which side is more aggressive within the current bar. Instead of waiting for prices to move or candles to close, you can instantly see whether buyers or sellers are stepping in.
2. Dynamic Total Volume (Invisible Histogram + Status Line Color)
The total volume of each bar is tracked behind the scenes and displayed in the pinned status line using a dynamic color—green when buyers dominate, red when sellers dominate. The histogram for total volume is invisible to keep the chart clean, but the total volume figure stays visible and changes color based on who is in control. This gives you instant confirmation of whether institutional-sized volume supports the direction shown by the buy/sell pressure, which is especially valuable when evaluating the risk or conviction behind a potential entry.
3. Percentage Mode (% of Bar Volume)
When toggled on, the indicator converts each bar into percent buy vs percent sell, normalizing all flow to a 0–100% scale. This mode is incredibly useful when comparing pressure across different times of day, gaps, or varying volume conditions—such as early morning spikes versus lunchtime chop. By removing absolute volume from the equation, you gain a clean look at the actual imbalance between buyers and sellers.
4. 70% Pressure Band (Imbalance Threshold Zone)
In percentage mode, the indicator displays a subtle 70% band (a light gray zone) above and below the zero line, showing where buy or sell pressure reaches extreme dominance (≥70%). When a bar’s buy or sell percentage enters this zone, it highlights moments of exhaustion, acceleration, or potential reversal. The band acts like a real-time overbought/oversold gauge specifically for volume imbalance, not price.
5. Trend Line (Net Pressure Trend / Reversal Detector)
The trend line smooths out the net volume pressure (buy volume minus sell volume or its percentage equivalent) and shows the overall direction of order flow. When the line slopes upward, buyers are gaining control; when it slopes downward, sellers are taking over. This trend line acts as a real-time momentum indicator based directly on flow rather than price. Because it reacts quickly to intrabar shifts in buy/sell pressure, it often turns before price does—giving you a measurable timing edge.
6. Auto-Selecting Trend Source (Volume Net, Percent Net, or CVD)
The indicator lets you choose how the trend line is calculated: Volume Net (buy minus sell volume), Percent Net (normalized imbalance), or CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta) for long-term flow bias. The default “Auto” mode automatically switches between Volume Net and Percent Net depending on which view you’re using. This flexibility allows the trend line to remain meaningful whether you’re analyzing raw volume or normalized percentage data.
7. Pinned (Status Line) Totals in K/M/B Format
Regardless of whether you’re in volume or percentage mode, the indicator always displays Total Volume, Buy Volume, and Sell Volume in the status line using abbreviated K, M, B formatting. These values update in real time and are color-coded: green for bullish dominance, red for bearish. This gives you a concise snapshot of order flow strength on every bar.
---------------------
How To Use:
Support Level Zones
• Watch for Buy bars increasing + Trend line flipping up right at or slightly below support.
• This often signals absorption — market makers filling large buy orders before reversal.
• Confirmation: Price reclaims VWAP ... enter calls / longs.
Resistance Level Zones
• Watch for Sell bars increasing + Trend line flattening/turning down near resistance.
• This signals distribution or stop runs.
• Confirmation: Price rejects VWAP ... enter puts / shorts.
Breakout Traps
• Sometimes you’ll see price break a level, but the flow doesn’t confirm (buy volume doesn’t expand).
• That’s a false breakout — fade it with options opposite the move.
Gann Square of 144 (Master Price & Time)🔹 What this tool does
Draws a 144-unit square in price & time (0 → 144)
Plots all key horizontal & vertical levels:
0, 18, 36, 48, 54, 72, 90, 96, 108, 126, 144
Highlights the main 1/2 level (72) as thick midline
Marks 1/3 and 2/3 (48 & 96) as special harmonic levels
Draws internal diagonals (0–144, 144–0 and sub-squares)
Plots an 8-ray Gann fan from the 0-point (0 → 36 / 72 / 108 / 144 etc.)
Keeps price–time ratio consistent inside the box:
the 1×1 angle has a fixed slope = price_per_bar
The idea: once the square is calibrated to a major swing, you can study how price respects these angles and harmonic zones over time.
🔧 Inputs & how to set it up correctly
Choose your timeframe
Works best on Daily and Weekly charts.
Use one timeframe consistently when calibrating the square.
Start offset (bars back)
Start offset (bars back) shifts the whole square left/right.
Increase the value to move the square further into the past, decrease it to move it closer to the current bars.
Box width (bars)
Box width (bars) = how many bars the square spans horizontally.
Bigger value = projects the structure further into the future.
Example: 288 bars ≈ 2×144 units in time, 720 bars for longer-term projection, etc.
Bottom price
Bottom price is your 0-level in price.
Usually set this to a major swing low (cycle low, bear market low, important pivot).
The bottom-left corner of the square conceptually sits at:
(start_offset_bar, bottom_price)
Price per bar (slope 1×1) (if your version has this input)
This defines the slope of the 1×1 angle (main Gann angle).
Recommended way to set it:
Pick a major impulsive move from Swing Low → Swing High.
Measure:
Price range = High − Low
Number of bars between them.
Compute:
price_per_bar = price_range / number_of_bars
Use that as your 1×1 value in the input.
Now the main diagonal from 0 to 144 represents the true Gann 1×1 for that swing.
Important: The 1×1 angle is mathematically correct (price-per-bar), even if it does not always look like a perfect 45° line visually in TradingView due to chart scaling.
📖 How to read the Square of 144
Horizontal levels
0 = anchor price (bottom)
18, 36, 48, 54, 72, 90, 96, 108, 126, 144 = key price harmonics
72 (1/2) often acts as major support/resistance
48 & 96 (1/3 and 2/3) are strong “vibration” levels
Vertical levels
Same units but in time (bars).
When important pivots in price occur near these verticals, you get time–price confluence.
Midlines (1/2)
The thick horizontal and vertical lines at 72 mark the center of the square.
Crossings around these often signal important cycle turns.
1/3 & 2/3 zones (48–54 and 90–96)
These narrow bands are powerful reversal / decision zones.
Price often reacts strongly there or accelerates if they break.
Gann fan from 0-point
These rays represent major trends:
1×1 equivalent (main diagonal)
Faster & slower angles (e.g. 2×1, 1×2, etc depending on configuration)
If price breaks one fan angle cleanly, it often “falls” or “climbs” toward the next one.
🎯 Practical use cases
Project future support/resistance zones based on a major low.
See where price is in the square: early in the cycle (0–36), mid (around 72), or late (108–144).
Watch how price respects:
midlines (72),
1/3 and 2/3 bands (48–54, 90–96),
and the fan angles from 0.
Combine with your own price action / Fibonacci / trend tools – this is not a signal generator, but a time–price map.
⚠️ Notes & limitations
This tool is for educational & analytical purposes only.
It does not generate buy/sell signals.
Visual 45° angles in TradingView can change when you zoom or rescale the chart.

CandelaCharts - Trend Oscillator 📝 Overview
Trend Oscillator is a simple yet effective trend identification tool that uses the relationship between two exponential moving averages (EMAs) to determine market direction. It calculates the spread between a fast and slow EMA, applies a bias multiplier, and smooths the result to produce a clean oscillator that oscillates above and below a zero line. When the oscillator is above zero, the trend is considered bullish (upward); when below zero, it's bearish (downward). The indicator provides clear visual feedback through color-coded plots and optional price bar coloring, making it easy to identify trend direction at a glance.
📦 Features
This section highlights the core capabilities you'll rely on most.
Dual EMA system — Uses a fast EMA (default 9) and slow EMA (default 21) to capture trend momentum and direction.
Bias multiplier — Applies a small multiplier (default 1.001) to the EMA spread, providing a slight bias that helps filter noise and confirm trend strength.
Smoothed output — Applies an additional EMA smoothing (default 5 periods) to the raw spread, creating a cleaner, less choppy oscillator line.
Zero-line reference — Plots a horizontal zero line that serves as the critical threshold between bullish and bearish conditions.
Color-coded visualization — Automatically colors the oscillator line green/lime when bullish (above zero) and red when bearish (below zero).
Price bar coloring — Optional feature to color price bars based on the current trend direction, providing immediate visual context on the main chart.
Customizable parameters — Adjust EMA lengths, bias multiplier, smoothing period, and colors to match your trading style and timeframe.
⚙️ Settings
Use these controls to fine-tune the oscillator's sensitivity, appearance, and behavior.
Fast EMA Length — Period for the fast exponential moving average (default: 9). Lower values make the indicator more responsive to price changes.
Slow EMA Length — Period for the slow exponential moving average (default: 21). Higher values create a smoother baseline for trend identification.
Bias Multiplier — Multiplier applied to the EMA spread (default: 1.001). Small adjustments can help filter minor whipsaws and confirm trend strength.
Smoothing Length — Period for smoothing the raw spread calculation (default: 5). Higher values create a smoother oscillator line but may lag price action.
Colors — Set the bullish (default: lime) and bearish (default: red) colors for the oscillator line.
Color Price Bars — Toggle to enable/disable coloring of price bars based on the current trend direction.

📒 Usage
Follow these steps to effectively use Trend Oscillator for trend identification and trading decisions.
1) Select your timeframe — The indicator works across all timeframes, but higher timeframes (daily, weekly, monthly) typically provide more reliable trend signals with less noise. Lower timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m) may produce more frequent but potentially less reliable signals. Consider your trading style: swing traders benefit from daily/weekly charts, while day traders can use 15m/1h timeframes. Always align the indicator's sensitivity with your timeframe choice.
2) Adjust EMA lengths — The default 9/21 combination works well for most cases. For faster signals, try 5/13; for slower, more conservative signals, try 12/26 or 20/50. Match the lengths to your trading style and timeframe.
3) Interpret the zero line — When the oscillator is above zero (green/lime), the trend is bullish. When below zero (red), the trend is bearish. The further from zero, the stronger the trend.
4) Watch for crossovers — Trend changes occur when the oscillator crosses the zero line. A cross from below to above indicates a shift to bullish; from above to below indicates a shift to bearish.
5) Identify divergences — Divergences can signal potential trend reversals. Bullish divergence : price makes lower lows while the oscillator makes higher lows (suggests weakening bearish momentum). Bearish divergence : price makes higher highs while the oscillator makes lower highs (suggests weakening bullish momentum). Divergences are most reliable when they occur near extreme levels and should be confirmed with price action before taking trades.
6) Use smoothing wisely — The smoothing parameter helps reduce noise but adds lag. Lower smoothing (3-5) is more responsive; higher smoothing (7-10) is more stable but slower to react.
7) Combine with price action — Use the oscillator to confirm trend direction, then look for entry opportunities when price pulls back in the direction of the trend. The optional price bar coloring helps visualize trend alignment on the main chart.
8) Filter with bias multiplier — The bias multiplier can help reduce false signals. Experiment with values between 1.000 and 1.005 to find the sweet spot for your instrument and timeframe.

Absorption DetectorAbsorption Detector is a clean and effective tool designed to identify institutional absorption at key turning points of the market.
It highlights candles where volume surges but the real body remains small, indicating potential absorption of liquidity before a reversal move.
Key Features
Volume Spike Detection – identifies abnormal increases in traded volume
Small Body Recognition – pinpoints candles with low real-body percentage
Delta Simulation (Fake Delta) – uses close–open behavior to approximate bullish/bearish delta
Bullish Absorption – highlights potential low-side absorption (green dots + green candles)
Bearish Absorption – highlights potential high-side absorption (red dots + red candles)
Background Highlighting – visual emphasis on absorption zones
Clean, lightweight and non-repainter
How It Helps
Absorption often occurs before strong moves:
Large players fill opposite orders
Stops are triggered and absorbed
Liquidity on one side dries up
Reversal or continuation moves follow
This indicator makes it easy to spot these moments in real time.
5-Minute Opening Range Breakout (ORB) - NY Session IndicatorThis TradingView indicator identifies and plots the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) based on the first 5-minute candle of the New York trading session.
Key Features:
Automatic Detection: Automatically detects the NY session open (default 9:30 AM ET, fully customizable) and captures the high/low of the first 5-minute bar
Multi-Timeframe Support: Works on any chart timeframe (1-min, 3-min, 15-min, etc.) by requesting 5-minute data
Dynamic Price Targets: Calculates both bullish (above ORB high) and bearish (below ORB low) price targets based on the opening range size
Configurable Targets: Set up to 10 price target levels on each side, with targets spaced proportionally to the ORB range
Extended Lines: All lines automatically extend ahead of the current bar by a configurable number of minutes for better forward visibility
Price Labels: Optional price labels display exact values at the end of each level
Midpoint Line: Optional dashed midpoint line shows the center of the opening range
Custom Styling: Fully customizable colors and transparency for all lines and labels
How It Works:
The indicator measures the distance between the ORB high and midpoint, then projects additional targets at equal intervals above the high (bullish targets in green) and below the low (bearish targets in red).
Why Use a 5-Minute ORB?
Tighter Range: The 5-minute opening range is typically smaller than the 15-minute range, providing more precise entry and exit levels
Earlier Signals: Breakouts are identified sooner, allowing for faster reaction times
Scalping-Friendly: Ideal for day traders and scalpers who prefer shorter timeframes and quicker price movements
Higher Probability Zones: The narrower range often creates more reliable support/resistance levels for intraday trading
Best Practices:
Works best on liquid instruments with high volume during NY session open
Combine with volume analysis to confirm breakout validity
Consider using the first target as a take-profit level for quick scalps
Watch for false breakouts within the first 15-30 minutes of the session
Volume Climax Reversal (VCR) — Catch Exhaustion Tops & BottomsNew! VCR spots exhaustion spikes at highs/lows using volume extremes + price action + VWAP context.
If you trade parabolic runners, indices, or mean-reversion edges, VCR helps you time the backside (shorts) and fade capitulation (longs) with clean, rule-based signals.
What it does
Detects volume climax: current volume > SMA(len) × multiplier and a new volume high in the lookback.
Confirms price context: makes a higher high (for tops) or lower low (for bottoms).
Filters with VWAP (optional): bearish signals only below VWAP, bullish signals only above VWAP.
Optional wick filter: requires an exhaustion wick > body to reduce chop.
Why traders like it
Clear entries: “VCR↓” (bearish) at exhaustion tops, “VCR↑” (bullish) at washout lows.
Fewer false signals: VWAP gating + wick filter focus on true climaxes.
Built-in alerts: set once, get notified on your phone/desktop when a setup appears.
How I trade it (simple playbook)
Bearish reversal (short / puts)
Wait for VCR↓ (exhaustion at/near HH).
Look for a lower high that fails to reclaim the signal candle high.
Enter on the break of that lower-high candle low.
Stop above the signal wick high.
Covers/targets: VWAP first; then 20–30% fade from the local top / prior demand.
Bullish reversal (long / calls)
Wait for VCR↑ (capitulation at/near LL).
Look for a higher low that holds above the signal candle low.
Enter on the break of the HL candle high.
Stop below the signal wick low.
Targets: VWAP first; then prior supply/MA bands.
Tip for small-cap/“Dux” style: VCR pairs perfectly with a gap + high USD-rotation scan. Let them blow off, then use VCR for the timing.
Inputs (tune to your market)
Volume SMA Length (default 20)
Volume Spike Multiplier (default 2.0)
Lookback High / Low (default 10 / 10)
Require VWAP confirmation? (on)
Use wick filter? (on)
Works on stocks, indices, futures, crypto.
Timeframes: 1–15m for day trading; 1h–4h–D for swing.
Alerts
Set one (or both) alerts and forget it:
Bearish Volume Climax — VCR↓
Bullish Volume Climax — VCR↑
You’ll get instant notifications when a qualified top/bottom prints.
Best practices
Don’t countertrend the first front-side ramp—wait for the VCR and a lower-high/higher-low.
Respect VWAP: it’s your first profit-taking and a bias filter.
Size small into volatility; widen stops in fast markets.
Combine with your watchlist filters (gap %, float/O/S, USD rotation, session timing).
What’s included
Clean visual signals (triangles + subtle background shading)
Session-anchored VWAP

Sensible defaults + clear docs (this post)
FAQ
Q: Does it repaint?
No. VCR uses completed-bar data; signals print end-of-bar.
Q: Which markets?
Anything with volume: US equities, futures, crypto, indices.
Q: Can I use it for scalps?
Yes—1–5m with wick filter on and VWAP required works well.

Nadaraya-Watson: Rational Quadratic Kernel (Opening Gap Shift)What we did to fix it: We didn't throw out the old data (that made it too jumpy early in the day).
Instead, we "tricked" the kernel by shifting all the previous day's prices up or down by the exact gap amount (e.g., if it gapped up 50 points, add 50 to every old price point). This makes the history "line up" with the new day's starting level.
Created so with a fresh session the Nadaraya-Watson Regression Kernel is relevant from the get go - no catch up on opening gaps.
All credit to jdehorty his full description is below.
What is Nadaraya–Watson Regression?
Nadaraya–Watson Regression is a type of Kernel Regression, which is a non-parametric method for estimating the curve of best fit for a dataset. Unlike Linear Regression or Polynomial Regression, Kernel Regression does not assume any underlying distribution of the data. For estimation, it uses a kernel function, which is a weighting function that assigns a weight to each data point based on how close it is to the current point. The computed weights are then used to calculate the weighted average of the data points.
How is this different from using a Moving Average?
A Simple Moving Average is actually a special type of Kernel Regression that uses a Uniform (Retangular) Kernel function. This means that all data points in the specified lookback window are weighted equally. In contrast, the Rational Quadratic Kernel function used in this indicator assigns a higher weight to data points that are closer to the current point. This means that the indicator will react more quickly to changes in the data.
Why use the Rational Quadratic Kernel over the Gaussian Kernel?
The Gaussian Kernel is one of the most commonly used Kernel functions and is used extensively in many Machine Learning algorithms due to its general applicability across a wide variety of datasets. The Rational Quadratic Kernel can be thought of as a Gaussian Kernel on steroids; it is equivalent to adding together many Gaussian Kernels of differing length scales. This allows the user even more freedom to tune the indicator to their specific needs.
The formula for the Rational Quadratic function is:
K(x, x') = (1 + ||x - x'||^2 / (2 * alpha * h^2))^(-alpha)
where x and x' data are points, alpha is a hyperparameter that controls the smoothness (i.e. overall "wiggle") of the curve, and h is the band length of the kernel.
Does this Indicator Repaint?
No, this indicator has been intentionally designed to NOT repaint. This means that once a bar has closed, the indicator will never change the values in its plot. This is useful for backtesting and for trading strategies that require a non-repainting indicator.
Settings:
Bandwidth. This is the number of bars that the indicator will use as a lookback window.
Relative Weighting Parameter. The alpha parameter for the Rational Quadratic Kernel function. This is a hyperparameter that controls the smoothness of the curve. A lower value of alpha will result in a smoother, more stretched-out curve, while a lower value will result in a more wiggly curve with a tighter fit to the data. As this parameter approaches 0, the longer time frames will exert more influence on the estimation, and as it approaches infinity, the curve will become identical to the one produced by the Gaussian Kernel.
Color Smoothing. Toggles the mechanism for coloring the estimation plot between rate of change and cross over modes.

Absorption — Bullish or BearishAbsorption — Bullish or Bearish Only is a lightweight and minimalistic tool designed to identify pure absorption events in the market.
It highlights only two conditions:
Bullish Absorption
• Volume spike
• Small candle body
• Positive delta behavior (close > open)
→ Indicates potential buy-side absorption at lows
Bearish Absorption
• Volume spike
• Small candle body
• Negative delta behavior (close < open)
→ Indicates potential sell-side absorption at highs

🕯️First Candle First Candle – Breakout & Return Indicator
This indicator marks the high and low of the first 9:30–9:45 AM New York session candle and locks those levels for the rest of the day.
It highlights important candles based on Fair Value Gap (FVG) logic and price behavior around this opening range:
• Green — first candle of the day whose full body closes above the range with a valid bullish FVG in the same impulse.
• Red — first candle whose full body closes below the range with a valid bearish FVG in the same impulse.
• Yellow — any candle whose full body re-enters back inside the range and has a matching same-impulse FVG behind the move.
Simple, clean, and designed to highlight only the most meaningful breakout and return signals from the opening range.
Dynamic Liquidity Levels [CDC Trading LABN] (ESPAÑOL)Script Description :
Take your market structure and liquidity analysis to the next level with Dynamic Liquidity Levels , a professional-grade tool designed to visualize the key levels that truly move the price. This indicator doesn't just plot static lines; it offers a dynamic framework that reacts to price action in real-time, keeping your chart clean and focused on what matters.
Designed for scalpers and swing traders alike, this indicator is your map for navigating market liquidity.
Key Features
• Smart Dynamic Lines: The standout feature of this indicator. Lines automatically stop extending once price has "invalidated" them. You decide whether the break occurs on a simple wick touch (to capture liquidity grabs) or a full candle close beyond the level (for a stronger confirmation).
• Comprehensive Liquidity Levels: Automatically draws the most important liquidity pools that professional traders watch every day:
• HTF Levels: Previous Day, Week, and Month Highs & Lows (PDH/L, PWH/L, PMH/L).
• Session Levels: Asian, London, and New York Session Highs & Lows (ASH/L, LSH/L, NYH/L).
• Full Label Control: Forget about overlapping labels. Adjust the position of each label individually (Left, Right, Center, Upper, Lower) for perfect visual clarity in any market condition.
• Instant, Configurable Alerts: Never miss an opportunity. Set up alerts that trigger the moment a level of your choice is broken, helping you execute your trades with precision.
• Clean & Professional Visualization: Fully customizable. Adjust colors, line width, and decide whether to display exact prices in the labels for an analysis setup tailored to your style.
Who is This Indicator For?
This tool is essential for a wide range of trading methodologies:
• Smart Money Concepts (SMC) & ICT Traders: Perfect for identifying liquidity pools and draw on liquidity levels. Use it to frame your order blocks and points of interest.
• Candle Range Theory (CRT) Traders: This indicator automates the core of your analysis. It identifies and projects the key candle ranges from higher timeframes (Daily, Weekly, Monthly) and trading sessions. Use these levels to anticipate price expansion and identify liquidity targets above and below established ranges, without manual markup every day.
• Price Action Traders: Clearly and automatically visualize the most relevant support and resistance levels based on high-timeframe market structure.
• Day Traders & Scalpers: Make quick decisions based on previous day's levels and session highs/lows, which act as magnets for intraday price.
• Swing Traders: Use the weekly and monthly levels to get a macro view of the structure and plan longer-term trades.
How to Use
1. Add the indicator to your chart.
2. Explore the settings panel to enable the levels and alerts that fit your trading plan.
3. Adjust the label positions for maximum clarity.
4. To receive alerts, right-click on the chart, create a new alert, select the indicator from the dropdown, and choose the "Any alert() function call" option.
We hope this tool greatly helps you improve your market analysis.

VWAP + Volume Spikes See Where Smart Money ExhaustsVolume tells the truth. VWAP tells the bias. This script shows both — live.
If you trade intraday momentum, reversals, or liquidity sweeps, this indicator is built for you.
It shows where volume spikes hit extreme levels, anchored around VWAP and its dynamic bands, so you can instantly spot capitulation or hidden absorption.
🎯 What This Indicator Does
✅ Plots VWAP — session-anchored, updates automatically
✅ Adds dynamic VWAP bands — standard deviation envelopes showing volatility context
✅ Highlights volume spikes — colored candles + background for abnormal prints
✅ Includes alerts — “Volume Spike”, “VWAP Cross”, or a combined alert with direction
✅ Clean visual design — instantly readable in fast markets
It’s your visual orderflow radar — whether you’re trading gold, indices, or small caps.
🔍 Why It Works
Institutions build and unwind positions around VWAP.
Retail often chases volume… this script shows you when that volume becomes too extreme.
A spike above VWAP near resistance? → Likely distribution.
A spike below VWAP near support? → Likely capitulation.
Combine volume exhaustion + VWAP context, and you’ll see market turning points form before most indicators react.
⚙️ Inputs You Can Tune
Bands lookback: adjusts how reactive the VWAP bands are
Band width (σ): set how tight or wide your deviation envelope is
Volume baseline length: controls how “abnormal” a spike must be
Spike threshold: multiplier vs. average volume
Toggle color-coding, bands, and labels
Default settings work well across 1m–15m intraday charts and 1h–4h swing frames.
💡 How Traders Use It
1️⃣ Fade Parabolics:
When a green spike candle pierces upper VWAP band on high volume → smart money unloading.
Look for rejection and short into VWAP.
2️⃣ Catch Capitulations:
When a red spike candle dumps below lower VWAP band → panic selling.
Watch for stabilization and long back to VWAP.
3️⃣ VWAP Rotation Plays:
Alerts for price crossing VWAP help you spot shift in intraday control.
Above VWAP = buyers in charge.
Below VWAP = sellers in charge.
🧠 Best Practices
Pair it with Volume Profile or Delta/Flow tools to confirm exhaustion.
Don’t chase — wait for spike confirmation + reversal candle.
Use it on liquid tickers (NASDAQ, SPY, GOLD, BTC, etc.).
Great for Dux-style small-cap shorts or index pullbacks.
🔔 Alerts Ready
Choose from:
Volume Spike (single-bar explosion)
VWAP Cross Up/Down (trend shift confirmation)
One Combined Alert (any signal, includes ticker, price, and volume)
Set once — get real-time push notifications, Telegram, or webhook signals.
📊 My Favorite Setups
US100 / NASDAQ: fade rallies above VWAP + spike
Gold / Silver: trade reversals from VWAP bands
Small caps: short back-side after volume climax
ES, DAX, Oil: scalp VWAP rotation with confluence
