TD signalsThe iFVG Smart Inversion System is a precision-based price action tool designed for traders who understand the power of liquidity and displacement. This indicator identifies Inverted Fair Value Gaps (iFVGs) — moments when price fully disrespects an existing imbalance — signaling a potential shift in market intent.
Unlike typical FVG indicators that flood the chart with zones, this system focuses on the signal behind the imbalance, not the imbalance itself.
✅ Core Logic
A signal is generated only when:
1️⃣ Price taps the 50 EMA
2️⃣ Within the next 10 bars, a previously-formed FVG is completely closed through
3️⃣ Trend is confirmed:
Buy only if price is above the 50 EMA
Sell only if price is below the 50 EMA
4️⃣ The most recent FVG is the only valid one
5️⃣ One signal per EMA tap — no clutter
6️⃣ System fully resets only after a new, clean EMA touch
7️⃣ Signal filter: Blocked when 50 EMA & 100 EMA are crossing to avoid indecision zones
This creates a highly selective, institutional-style confirmation tool with strong directional bias.
🎯 What It’s Built For
Intraday trading (5m optimal, but works on other TFs)
Liquidity grabs & displacement recognition
Trend-aligned continuation entries
Clean and minimal charting
Perfect for traders who want clarity over chaos — less noise, more conviction.
🔔 Alerts Included

Delta Arbitrage [by Oberlunar]Delta Arbitrage turns fragmented exchange activity into a single, readable pulse. Each broker breathes at its own rhythm; this tool measures the share of “buy vs. sell” participation per broker, weights those brokers by liquidity/activity, and blends them into one continuous bias. The result is a chart you can read in seconds: aqua when buy-side dominates, red when sell-side does—stronger shades for stronger imbalances.
Delta Arbitrage indicator supports several ways to colour candles based on the aggregated, cross-venue delta, so you can match visual feedback to the strength/consensus of flow.
Examples
LONG opportunity — broad bullish agreement (>70% weighted Buy%)
In this case, a LONG setup formed because a high proportion of brokers simultaneously pushed bullish volumetric deltas (>70%).
The corridor then stayed positive across multiple bars, with sustained long strength in agreement across venues:
Follow-through:
SHORT opportunity — broad bearish agreement (<20% weighted Buy%)
Here, a SHORT setup formed because a high proportion of brokers simultaneously pushed bearish volumetric deltas (<20%).
The corridor remained negative over several bars, showing high-intensity short pressure in cross-venue agreement:
Follow-through:
Spectral mode
You can enable the spectral mode, where range candles are colored only when multiple brokers are in volumetric agreement. You’ll see bullish pressure when weighted Buy% exceeds ~70%; when direction changes, range candles fade out and the lower tiles flip red to reflect rising short pressure.
Example:
How it’s built (in plain words)
For every selected broker, the script computes a robust Buy% over a rolling window and maps it to a signed bias (−1…+1).
Venues are then combined with flexible weighting—Equal, Last Volume, SMA Volume, or Relative-to-SMA—to emphasise who is active now .
A small neutral band near zero calms noise; an intensity curve (gamma) makes strong pushes visually obvious without overshooting weak ones.
What you see
Tinted bars/background : the aggregate bias colours the chart so the prevailing side is instantly clear.
Dashboard : a compact meter for each venue (SELL⇄BUY), its normalised weight, and exact Buy%/bias, plus a summary line for the weighted & unweighted aggregates. It shows whether one venue is dragging the whole market or if participation is broad.
Lower panel (timeline) : a tile-per-bar strip using the same bias logic. Long, saturated runs = sustained participation; choppy, desaturated tiles around zero = balance/compression. The strip’s height is fixed vs. a recent range, so it remains legible on any zoom.
How to act on it (minimal, auditable rules)
Entries: a one-shot arrow when the weighted Buy% crosses a high/low threshold (e.g., >70 for longs, <30 for shorts).
Exits: trail the indicator itself—close when the weighted Buy% retraces by a set number of points from its peak (long) or trough (short).
Context: prefer entries that align with a fresh, persistent run in the lower strip and supportive rows in the dashboard; fade/exit when the strip desaturates or flips.
Do not operate when the average volumetric pressure (avg) is around 50% +- 15%
Why it matters
This is not tick-level microstructure; it’s a fast, stable cross-venue proxy designed for operational use on any timeframe. By unifying “who’s in charge, for how long, and how strongly,” the indicator reduces discretionary noise and turns participation into a tradable, testable context.

Order Blocks Zones with Signals█ OVERVIEW
“Order Blocks Zones with Signals” is a technical analysis tool that automatically identifies Order Blocks (OB) and optionally Fair Value Gaps (FVG) on the chart.
The script visualizes these zones as colored rectangles, offering full customization of style, transparency, and signal display.
It also generates entry and exit signals (Break & Exit) that can serve as confirmations in strategies based on price action and market structure.
Thanks to flexible candle size filters and rich visual options, the indicator maintains chart clarity and readability.
█ CONCEPTS
Order Blocks (OB) are key zones on the chart where significant price movements previously occurred — areas where large market participants (institutions, so-called smart money) initiated or closed positions.
An OB is the last candle that followed the prior trend before the market reversed (e.g., for a Bullish OB: the last bearish candle before a pivot low and a strong upward impulse).
The script detects these levels using local price pivots, analyzing candle direction to filter out less significant movements.
FVG (Fair Value Gaps) represent areas of imbalance between buyers and sellers — price gaps formed by a sharp impulse where full trading did not occur due to one-sided order dominance (e.g., excess buy or sell orders).
Why combine OB and FVG in one indicator?
Combining OB and FVG analysis is essential because these phenomena often occur sequentially in the institutional market cycle:
1. Order Block — institutions enter the market in the OB zone, absorbing orders and building positions.
2. Strong impulse — after smart money entry, a rapid price move creates an FVG (imbalance gap).
3. Retest — price naturally returns to these zones (OB or FVG), drawn by unfilled orders and the search for equilibrium.
Such areas strongly attract price, as they represent not only historical institutional levels but also open “holes” in the order book. Retests of OB and FVG are ideal entry opportunities with high reaction probability (rebound or breakout). The indicator combines these two interconnected elements, enabling comprehensive market structure analysis in a single tool.
Order Blocks are labeled as:
Bullish OB – demand zones, often accumulation areas before an upmove.
Bearish OB – supply zones, signaling potential impulse end or correction start.
█ FEATURES
Order Block Detection (OB Detection):
- Automatic identification of demand and supply zones based on pivots.
- OB is the last candle aligned with the prior trend, just before the market reversal — precisely identified through candle sequence analysis around the pivot.
- OB zones appear with a delay equal to Pivot Length (default 10 bars).
- Break signals trigger when a candle’s body (close) fully pierces the zone, causing the zone to disappear immediately (e.g., close < low of Bullish OB → Break Down and zone deletion).
- Minimum size filtering via OB Size Multiplier.
- Option to create OB without wicks (Include Wicks in OB): when disabled, OB zones are based solely on candle bodies (open/close), ignoring wicks (high/low).
Fair Value Gap Detection (FVG Detection):
- Optional, with enable/disable capability.
- FVG are detected without delay — immediately upon gap occurrence.
- Size filtering via Candle Size Period and FVG Size Multiplier.
Customizable Styling:
- Separate colors and border styles (Solid / Dashed / Dotted) for each zone type.
- Adjustable transparency and border thickness.
- Unified color for box, border, and signal of the same type.
Breakout and Exit Signals:
- Break Up – triggered when a candle’s close breaks above a Bearish OB, causing the zone to disappear.
- Break Down – triggered when a candle’s close breaks below a Bullish OB, causing the zone to disappear.
- Exit Up / Exit Down – temporary exit from the zone without full breakout (price leaves the zone but doesn’t close beyond it). Signal type selection: Break, Exit, or Both.
- Alerts: built-in alerts for all signal types — triggered automatically on candle close confirming breakout or exit from OB.
█ HOW TO USE
Adding to chart: import the code into Pine Editor and run the script on TradingView.
Settings configuration:
- Pivot Length: controls swing detection sensitivity and OB display delay (default 10).
- Include Wicks in OB: enabled (default) – OB includes wicks; disabled – OB uses bodies only.
- Size Filter: adjust Candle Size Period and OB/FVG Size Multiplier to filter out small zones.
- Colors & Styles: set colors, styles, and transparency for each zone type.
- Signal Type: choose which signals to display (Break, Exit, or Both).
Signal interpretation:
- OB Break Up: price closes above Bearish OB → zone disappears → potential bullish continuation.
- OB Break Down: price closes below Bullish OB → zone disappears → potential bearish continuation.
- Exit Signals: price leaves the zone temporarily without breakout — often signals impending reversal or pullback.
Tips:
- Use OB signals alongside other indicators like RSI, MACD, SMI, or trend filters.
- Order Blocks from higher timeframes (e.g., 4H, 1D) carry greater significance and reaction strength.
- Remember: FVG are detected immediately, OB with delay — a complementary approach!
█ APPLICATIONS
- Smart Money Concepts (SMC): use OB zones as dynamic support and resistance levels. In an uptrend, look for buy opportunities in bullish OBs, which price often retests before further gains. Combining with RSI, MACD, or Fibonacci levels enhances zone significance, confirming institutional demand.
- Breakout Trading: trade based on OB breakout signals. A buy signal after breaking a bearish OB may indicate a strong upward impulse, especially if supported by rising MACD or RSI above 50. Similarly for sell signals after Break Down.
- Reversal Zones: Exit signals may indicate the end of a move or correction. Safest to use in alignment with higher-timeframe trend and confirmed by another indicator (e.g., RSI divergence, Fibonacci levels).
- Confluence Analysis: combine OB and FVG for deeper market structure and equilibrium insight. When an Order Block overlaps or borders an FVG, we get confluence of two institutional phenomena — OB (smart money entry) + FVG (imbalance) — making these areas particularly strong price magnets, increasing retest and reaction probability.
█ NOTES
- FVG can be fully disabled for a cleaner chart view.
- In consolidation periods, signals may appear more frequently — always confirm with additional trend filters.
- Works on all markets and timeframes (crypto, forex, indices, stocks).
Balanced Delta Volume Profile (Zeiierman)█ Overview
Balanced Delta Volume Profile (Zeiierman) builds a vertical, price-by-price profile that blends total participation with balance quality. Instead of plotting raw volume alone, it weights each price bin by:
how balanced buyers vs. sellers were,
how compressed price was inside that bin,
how often price revisited it.
The result spotlights fair value and acceptance zones while still revealing momentum/imbalance areas—ideal for reading rotation vs. trend, continuation vs. exhaustion, and the prices that truly matter.
Highlights
Balanced score that fuses delta symmetry, price compression, and hit frequency.
Optional heat spectrum for instant read of participation density and balance strength.
POC-like auto highlight of the dominant price level within the lookback window.
Works across timeframes for session profiling, swing context, or regime shifts.
█ How It Works
⚪ Profile Construction
The script scans a fixed History Length and divides the full high–low span into Bin Count price bins. For every bar in the window, its volume is proportionally distributed across the bins it overlaps, so wide-range bars contribute across multiple bins, while narrow bars concentrate where they traded most. This yields per-bin totals for:
Total Volume (participation)
Positive / Negative Volume (up vs. down bar contribution)
Hit Count (how often price touched the bin)
Average Price Range (mean bar range inside the bin; a proxy for compression)
⚪ Delta & Direction
For each bin, delta symmetry is measured via the ratio of |pos − neg| to total volume. Bins with balanced two-sided flow score higher than one-sided, runaway bins. This curbs the tendency of raw volume profiles to over-reward impulsive bursts.
⚪ Balance Score
Each price bin gets a balance score that multiplies three normalized components:
Delta Balance: rewards bins where buy/sell pressure is symmetrical (configurable via Volume Momentum Weight).
Price Compression: rewards bins where average bar range is relatively small (configurable via Price Momentum Weight).
Durability: rewards bins revisited often (configurable via Hits Weight).
A Min Hits Filter removes flimsy, single-touch bins from dominating the score. The profile can display pure totals or Average Mode (Vol/Hit) to compare bins fairly when hit counts differ.
⚪ Display & Heat Spectrum
The final plotted bar length per bin is the display volume (total or average) weighted by the balance score and normalized to 100.
POC-like Highlight: The 100% bin is outlined (and labeled) when Highlight Max Volume Bin is ON.
Heat Spectrum (optional): A background gradient scales with normalized bar length and balance hue.
Balance Hue: Interpolates between Balance Low/High Colors so high-balance bins visually pop as “accepted value.”
█ How to Use
The profile is effectively a map of price acceptance:
High, bright bars = strong participation at balanced prices → fair value/rotation zones.
Thin, muted bars = poor acceptance → imbalance or transition areas.
POC-style level = most influential price in the lookback window.
⚪ Find Fair Value & Acceptance
Thick, high-balance bins mark value. Expect rotation: price often revisits or oscillates around these areas. They’re prime zones for mean-reversion fades, scale-ins, and risk-defined trades against the edges.
⚪ Identify Imbalance & Funnels
Low-balance, low-hit bins often act like air pockets—price can move through them quickly. These zones are helpful for continuation trades into thin areas or for timing breakout pulls back into acceptance.
⚪ POC Dynamics
When price leaves the POC and returns, watch for re-acceptance (price comes back into the POC or high-balance zone and stays there.) vs. rejection (trend continuation away from value). The auto-highlight makes this quick to judge.
█ Settings
History Length – Bars scanned for the profile. Longer = broader context, slower to adapt.
Bin Count – Vertical resolution of bins between the window’s min and max price.
Display Shift – Offsets the rendering rightward for clarity.
Average Mode (Vol/Hit) – ON uses average volume per visit; OFF uses total volume.
Volume Momentum Weight – Emphasizes two-way flow; higher values favor balanced bins over one-sided deltas.
Price Momentum Weight – Emphasizes compression; higher values favor narrow-range, coiling price action.
Hits Weight – Rewards bins revisited often; higher values favor durable acceptance.
Min Hits Filter – Minimum visits a bin needs to qualify for the balance score.
Show Heat Spectrum – Background gradient for quick read of density and balance.
Highlight Max Volume Bin – Outline + raw volume label for the dominant bin.
Max Volume Color – Color used for that highlight.
Balance Low/High Colors – Gradient endpoints for balance hue across the profile.

FVG SizeFVG Size Indicator – Description
Overview
This Pine Script v5 indicator detects and visualizes Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on the chart. It draws colored boxes for FVGs, center lines (CE), and displays the size of each FVG as a label. The indicator is designed for manual analysis, helping traders identify potential price imbalances.
Key Features
FVG Detection:
Identifies bullish and bearish FVGs based on price structure.
Draws colored boxes for FVGs and dotted center lines (CE).
FVG Size Display:
Shows the size of each FVG as a label inside the box.
Customizable minimum size threshold to filter out smaller FVGs.
Dynamic Adjustments:
Extends FVG boxes to the right as new bars form.
Removes FVGs that are filled (mitigated) by price action.
Customizable Settings:
Adjustable colors, text size, and display options.
Settings and Translations
Here are the German settings with their English translations:
FVG Settings
Long FVG Farbe → Long FVG Color (Color for bullish FVG boxes)
Short FVG Farbe → Short FVG Color (Color for bearish FVG boxes)
CE Farbe → CE Color (Color for the center line)
Tage Rückblick → Lookback Days (Number of days to look back for FVGs)
Lösche gefüllte Boxen & Linien → Delete Filled Boxes & Lines (Removes FVGs that have been filled by price)
FVG Display
FVG Größe anzeigen → Show FVG Size (Displays the size of each FVG as a label)
Text → Text Size (Size of the FVG size label text)
Mindestgröße → Minimum Size (Minimum FVG size to display, filtering out smaller FVGs)
How It Works
FVG Detection Logic:
A bullish FVG is detected if the high of the 3rd bar is lower than the low of the 1st bar.
A bearish FVG is detected if the low of the 3rd bar is higher than the high of the 1st bar.
Drawing FVGs:
The indicator draws a box between the high/low of the 1st and 3rd bars.
A center line (CE) is drawn at the midpoint of the FVG.
The size of the FVG is displayed as a label inside the box.
Dynamic Adjustments:
FVG boxes are extended to the right as new bars form.
If the price fills the FVG, the box and line are removed (depending on settings).
Mitigation Logic:
If the price closes beyond the FVG boundaries, the FVG is considered "filled" and removed.
Previous Cycle Range + SMTs [bilal x shpat]Inspired by ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts
Description made by ChatGPT
Thank you shpat.a for making the SMT option
📝 Overview
The Previous Cycle Range + SMTs indicator is a multi-timeframe tool designed to visualize key market structure levels derived from the previous trading cycle’s range — a concept heavily utilized in ICT-style analysis.
In addition to the traditional range levels, this indicator adds Smart Money Tool (SMT) detection, allowing traders to identify bullish or bearish divergences across multiple correlated assets, giving an edge in spotting potential turning points and liquidity imbalances.
It helps traders identify equilibrium levels, liquidity zones, and potential premium/discount areas based on the prior day (or any chosen period) high and low — now with intermarket divergence insights.
⚙️ Features
Custom Cycle Length: Define your own cycle in minutes (e.g., 1440 = 1 day, 10080 = 1 week).
Previous High/Low: Automatically plots the previous cycle’s high and low levels.
Equilibrium (EQ): Optional 50% midpoint line to highlight the market’s equilibrium.
Quarter Levels: Adds 25% and 75% range lines for refined premium/discount analysis.
Extended Ranges: Optional extended levels (e.g., -100%, +200%) to identify continuation or retracement targets.
Fib Levels (1.272 & 1.618): Adds ICT-style Fibonacci extension levels for confluence zones.
Smart Money Tool (SMT) Detection:
Detects bullish or bearish divergences between your main asset and up to two comparison symbols.
Highlights potential SMT zones with optional text labels for quick visualization.
Optional SMT summary table displays divergence status for all three assets.
Custom Styling: Full control over colors, line width, label style, and extension distance.
💡 How It Helps
This indicator aligns with ICT principles by making the previous day’s range visible and actionable, now with SMT divergence insights:
The previous day’s high/low often act as liquidity pools.
The equilibrium (EQ) represents fair value — useful for spotting premium/discount zones.
Quarter levels and Fibonacci extensions add precision when mapping market structure and potential reaction points.
SMT detection helps traders identify early divergence signals that may indicate upcoming bullish or bearish moves across correlated markets.
🔍 Example Uses
Identify where price is trading relative to the previous session’s range.
Use EQ and quarter levels to gauge premium vs. discount conditions.
Spot intermarket divergences using SMTs to anticipate potential reversal or continuation points.
Combine with other ICT-based tools (e.g., PD arrays, dealing ranges, or kill zones) for refined trade setups.

Advanced Institucional Trading IndicatorThe Advanced Institutional Trading Indicator is a comprehensive technical analysis tool that combines four institutional trading concepts to identify where large market participants hunt liquidity, establish positions, and create supply/demand imbalances. The indicator integrates pivot-based reversal signals, liquidity sweep detection, volumetric order blocks, and equal highs/lows identification into a unified framework for analyzing institutional footprints in the market.
What It Detects
Pivot-Based Reversal Signals: Swing highs/lows marking potential trend reversals
Liquidity Sweeps: False breakouts indicating institutional stop-hunting
Volumetric Order Blocks: Supply/demand zones with buying vs selling pressure ratios
Equal Highs/Lows (EQH/EQL): Liquidity pools where stops cluster
In Practice
Traders can watch for equal highs/lows near order blocks, wait for sweeps of these levels as confirmation of liquidity capture, then look for reversal signals to time entries with the expectation that institutions have now positioned themselves and the true directional move can begin.
Logic used
Pivots: Standard functions with configurable periods, signals when swing type alternates
Sweeps: Detects brief violations of swing levels with cooldown filter
Order Blocks: Three-candle volume split into buying/selling pressure, filtered by ATR
Equal Levels: Compares consecutive pivots within ATR-based threshold
Visual representation
Reversal Signals: Green "Buy-point"/red "Sell-point" labels.
Sweeps: Dashed lines with "Sweep" text and swing markers.
Order Blocks: Colored boxes with volumetric bars and percentages.
Equal Levels: Golden lines with $ symbols.
Customization options
Pivot Length, Cooldown Period, Swing Length, Zone Count (1/3/5/10), ATR Multiplier, Threshold, customizable colors and styles.
Recommendations for use: Lower timeframes use smaller parameters (5-15 pivot, 20-35 swing). Higher timeframes use larger (20-50 pivot, 50-100 swing). Adjust for volatility.
Originality and value
While this indicator utilizes established concepts from institutional trading methodology (particularly Smart Money Concepts and ICT principles), its value proposition includes:
- Integration: Combines four complementary analysis tools into a single cohesive framework rather than requiring multiple separate indicators
- Volumetric Enhancement: Adds quantitative volume analysis to order blocks, showing not just where institutions positioned but how much buying vs selling pressure existed
- Automated Zone Management: Intelligently combines overlapping order blocks to reduce visual noise while preserving essential information
- Intelligent Filtering: Uses ATR-based thresholds for equal highs/lows and maximum order block size, adapting to market volatility
- Coordinated Signaling: All components reference similar swing detection logic, creating alignment between different institutional footprint indicators

Multi-TF 👀### Multi-Timeframe Analysis (MTF-Analysis)
**Overview**
The Multi-Timeframe Analysis indicator is a powerful visualization tool designed for traders who incorporate multi-timeframe (MTF) strategies into their decision-making process. It overlays compact, customizable candle representations from up to four higher timeframes directly on your chart, positioned to the right of the last bar for quick reference. This allows you to monitor price action, momentum via EMAs, and key levels like Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) across multiple resolutions without switching charts. Built with efficiency in mind, it supports automatic timeframe detection, real-time updates, and a clean, non-intrusive design that enhances your trading workflow.
Ideal for day traders, swing traders, and scalpers, this indicator helps identify alignments between timeframes, spot potential reversals or continuations, and validate entries/exits based on higher-timeframe context. It leverages Pine Script v6 for smooth performance, with optimizations to handle up to 5000 bars back and extensive drawing limits.
**Key Features**
- **Multi-Timeframe Candle Display**: Renders recent candles (configurable from 5 to 100 per timeframe) from selected higher timeframes (e.g., 5m, 15m, 1H, 4H) as compact bars with customizable width, spacing, and padding. Bullish and bearish candles are color-coded for instant recognition.
- **Automatic Timeframe Adaptation**: When enabled, the indicator intelligently selects complementary timeframes based on your chart's resolution (e.g., on a 1m chart, it might show 5m, 15m, and 1H). Manual overrides are available for full control.
- **EMA Overlays**: Plots EMA9, EMA21, and EMA50 on each MTF section using a user-defined source (e.g., OHLC/4, close). EMAs can be dashed for clarity and enabled/disabled per timeframe, helping to gauge momentum and trend strength.
- **Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)**: Detects bullish (+FVG) and bearish (-FVG) gaps with a configurable lookback length (5-50 bars). Gaps are visualized as dotted boxes extending from the candle, highlighting potential support/resistance zones or imbalances.
- **Time Labels and Debugging**: Displays timestamp labels under every fourth candle for chronological context. A debug mode expands spacing and adds detailed labels (e.g., OHLC, volume, EMA values) for testing and verification.
- **Customization Options**: Extensive inputs for colors (bodies, wicks, EMAs, FVGs), label sizes/styles, and layout ensure seamless integration with your chart theme. Supports futures symbols with a time offset adjustment.
- **Performance Optimizations**: Uses arrays for efficient data management, clears drawings on realtime updates or timeframe changes, and limits buffer sizes to prevent overload.
**How to Use**
1. Add the indicator to your chart via TradingView's "Indicators" menu.
2. Configure timeframes: Enable/disable up to four TFs and set the number of candles to display. Use "Auto Timeframe" for smart defaults.
3. Adjust EMAs: Select the source type and toggle per TF to focus on relevant momentum signals (e.g., EMA9 crossovers for short-term trades).
4. Enable FVGs: Activate per TF and tweak the length to suit your market (shorter for volatile assets, longer for trends).
5. Fine-tune appearance: Modify padding, candle width, and colors to avoid clutter. Use debug mode during setup.
6. Interpret: Align your chart's price action with MTF candles—look for confluence in trends, FVGs filling as support/resistance, or EMA alignments for high-probability setups.
**Input Settings**
- **General**: Hour offset for time adjustments (useful for futures).
- **Timeframes**: Enable TFs 1-4, select resolutions (e.g., "5m"), and set candle counts. Auto mode simplifies this.
- **FVG/iFVG**: Toggle per TF, customize colors and detection length.
- **EMA**: Enable per TF, choose source, colors, and dashed style.
- **Candle Appearance**: Bull/bear colors for bodies/wicks, width/spacing/padding, label size/color.
- **Debug**: Expands view for detailed inspection.
**Notes**
- This indicator is non-repainting and updates in realtime, but performance may vary on lower timeframes with many candles—reduce counts if needed.
- FVGs are calculated locally on recent bars for efficiency; historical gaps beyond the buffer aren't shown.
- Compatible with all symbols, but best on volatile markets like forex, crypto, or indices.
- Feedback welcome—updates may include more MA types or advanced FVG filters.

Volume Spread Analysis — Educational (VSA Study)Volume Spread Analysis — Educational (VSA Study)
Overview
This study is an educational tool built around classic Volume Spread Analysis (VSA), the methodology introduced by Tom Williams.
VSA looks at the relationship between volume, price spread, and closing position to highlight potential supply and demand imbalances.
The script is designed for learning and visual study, not for trade signals. It highlights well-known VSA events directly on the chart and adds reference lines and a colored moving average to help contextualize strength and weakness.
What It Shows
Major VSA Events: Stopping Volume (SV), Selling Climax (SC), Shakeout (SO), No Supply (NS), No Demand (ND), Buying Climax (BC), Upthrust (UT), Supply Coming In (SCI), End of Rising Market (EoRM), and Test Bars.
Trigger Lines: When a strong VSA bar appears, the script draws horizontal levels at the bar’s high and low. These act as educational “zones” where future price reactions can be studied.
Context Moving Average: A dotted MA changes color with price context (black or green when strength is confirmed, red when weakness dominates).
How It Works
Each event is identified using a blend of conditions:
Volume vs. its average
Spread vs. its average
Close location within the bar
Wick analysis (upper/lower shadows)
Short-term trend filters (5- and 10-period SMAs)
By combining these elements, the script maps chart activity to classical VSA definitions.
How to Study With It
Signs of Strength
Look for SC, SV, or SO bars.
Wait until price trades above the blue trigger line drawn from those bars.
Watch for a No Supply (NS) test bar in that zone.
Confirmation comes when the immediate next bar closes up and strong, with higher volume than the prior two bars.
The dotted MA should shift to black or green, showing supportive background strength.
Signs of Weakness
Watch for Supply Coming In, BC, or UT events.
Wait until price trades below the red trigger line.
Look for a No Demand (ND) bar in that area.
Confirmation comes when the following bar closes down and weak, with higher volume than the prior two bars.
The dotted MA should be red, reinforcing weakness.
Originality
This script was written from scratch with a focus on education and clarity. While VSA concepts themselves are public domain, the implementation here is unique:
It combines event detection, trigger zones, and a contextual MA in one framework.
It avoids acting as a trading system and instead provides a practical study workflow that traders can follow step by step.

It does not generate buy or sell signals and should not be used as financial advice.
Trading involves risk; always perform your own analysis and risk management.
Funding Rate Aggregated (Lite)Funding Rate Aggregated (Lite) provides traders with a consolidated view of perpetual futures funding rates across multiple major exchanges. Instead of monitoring each market individually, the script aggregates the available data into a single, average funding rate series—streamlining analysis and helping identify market-wide positioning imbalances.
The indicator supports Binance, Bybit, OKX, Bitget, and Coinbase, with user-controlled toggles to enable or disable specific venues. For exchanges offering multiple quote currencies (e.g., USDT, USD, or USDC pairs) inclusion is based on whether their trading activity (volume) is relevant (determined manually, not via code). Each available rate is checked and included in the calculation only if valid, ensuring the average reflects actual market conditions.
From a technical standpoint, the script:
Retrieves real-time funding rate data directly via request.security for the current symbol’s base currency.
Applies standard formatting similar to TradingView's official indicator.
Visualizes the average funding rate with color-coded plotting (green for positive, red for negative), alongside a neutral zero reference line.
Why it is useful:
Funding rates are a direct measure of long/short market bias in perpetual swaps. Persistently high positive rates often indicate overcrowded longs, while negative rates can reveal excessive shorting.
By combining multiple exchanges into one metric, traders gain a more robust signal, reducing noise from isolated exchange-specific anomalies.
This aggregated perspective can assist in timing contrarian trades, spotting funding-driven inefficiencies, and gauging overall market sentiment.
Applications in trading include:
Sentiment analysis: Assess whether perpetual futures traders are leaning heavily long or short.
Cross-exchange confirmation: Ensure that extreme funding isn’t confined to a single venue.
Risk management: Identify periods of elevated funding costs that may erode profitability in longer-term positions.
Strategy filters: Integrate the aggregated rate as a condition for entries/exits, or to adjust position sizing during extremes.
The Lite designation emphasizes simplicity and efficiency: the indicator avoids unnecessary visual and data-driven clutter and focuses on delivering one clear, aggregated signal that can be adapted to a wide range of trading styles.
CVD Spaghetti - Multi-Exchange (Perpetuals)CVD Spaghetti – Multi-Exchange (Perpetuals) is designed to track and visualize Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) across multiple cryptocurrency perpetual futures exchanges in one consolidated view. This indicator provides traders with a clearer perspective on buying and selling pressure by monitoring how order flow develops on different venues simultaneously.
What it does
The script calculates the CVD for each enabled exchange and plots them as separate lines on a single chart, creating a “spaghetti” style visualization. This allows traders to identify relative strength or weakness between major exchanges, which can often hint at institutional positioning, liquidity shifts, and potential market imbalances.
Why it’s useful
Order flow and liquidity dynamics can differ significantly between exchanges. By aggregating and comparing these flows, traders can:
Detect which venue is leading during trend development.
Spot divergences between exchanges, which may indicate inefficiencies or arbitrage-driven movements.
Gauge overall sentiment strength by comparing multiple sources instead of relying on a single dataset.
Technical details
Anchor Period Reset: The cumulative calculation resets based on the user-defined Anchor Period (default: daily), keeping data relevant for the chosen trading horizon.
Dynamic Resolution: The script automatically selects an appropriate lower timeframe for data requests based on the chart timeframe to maintain responsiveness and accuracy.
Normalization: Not all exchanges report volume in the same way—some use quote currency (USD), others in contracts or ticks. To ensure comparability, this indicator normalizes volumes where necessary:
Bybit USD and OKX contracts are divided by price to approximate base-coin terms.
Single-contract venues (e.g., Deribit) are normalized similarly.
Exchanges already reporting in the base currency remain unchanged.
Multi-Exchange Coverage: Supports major venues including Binance, Bybit, OKX, Bitget, Coinbase, and optional secondary exchanges like Blofin, Whitebit, and Deribit.
Visual Aids:
Zero baseline for directional reference.
Vertical session markers at each reset point.
Optional exchange labels positioned dynamically on the last bar for quick identification.
How traders might use it
Trend confirmation: Strong synchronized CVD across all major exchanges supports continuation; fragmentation may suggest weakening conviction.
Cross-exchange divergence: When one exchange’s CVD diverges from others, it can signal localized liquidity shocks or large player activity.
High-frequency strategies: On lower timeframes, the spaghetti view can highlight which venue is absorbing or providing liquidity fastest, aiding short-term decision-making.

Vector Sniper Pro What it is
Vector Sniper (Simplified) is a single, original algorithm that flags impulsive “vector” moves only when volatility, volume, and structure align. It is not a mashup of other indicators; everything below is computed from raw OHLCV with a small, transparent ruleset.
⸻
Core idea (signal = force × participation × context)
1. Force (Volatility):
• We z-score true range: trZ = (ATR(1) - SMA(ATR(1), N)) / StDev(ATR(1), N).
• A move must exceed a user-set Volatility Z-Score.
2. Participation (Volume):
• We z-score raw volume: volZ = (Vol - SMA(Vol, N)) / StDev(Vol, N).
• Volume must also exceed a Volume Z-Score.
3. Context (Structure, Body, Imbalance, Traps):
• Body% filter: real body / range ≥ Min Body %.
• Delta-volume proxy: (bullVol − bearVol) / volume, where bullVol = volume*(close−low)/range and bearVol = volume*(high−close)/range. We require positive imbalance for bulls, negative for bears.
• Structure break (optional): price must take out the prior N-bar high/low.
• Trap detection (optional): spring/upthrust patterns defined by lower-low/upper-high followed by a close back inside.
If the above align, you get a Bull Vector (green) or Bear Vector (red). “Extreme” vectors require the same conditions at a higher multiple (Ext Mult).
⸻
Noise control (pre-signal gate)
Before a vector is allowed, a pre-signal score (0–7) must pass:
• Checks include spring/upthrust, no-supply/no-demand, imbalance, volume > average, VWAP side alignment, EMA trend alignment, proximity to structure break, and candle direction.
• You choose a minimum score, persistence (must occur ≥N times inside last M bars), cooldown after a pass, and hysteresis vs the opposite side.
This prevents one-off blips and keeps signals directional.
⸻
Optional confluence
• VWAP alignment: require price on the correct side and VWAP slope with it.
• EMA filter: require EMA trend agreement.
• HTF bias (optional): compare HTF close vs HTF EMA on a selected timeframe.
• Implemented with request.security and no look-ahead; bias updates when the higher timeframe bar closes.
⸻
Visuals & alerts
• Candle colors (5 total):
• Green = Bull Vector, Red = Bear Vector.
• Blue = Pre-Bull, Orange = Pre-Bear.
• Gray = Neutral.
• Markers (optional): diamonds = “Extreme” vectors; small triangles = pre-signals.
• Built-in alerts: Bull Vector, Bear Vector, Extreme Bull/Bear, Pre-Bull, Pre-Bear.
• Add from: Alerts → Condition → this script → choose event.
⸻
How to use (practical)
1. Start with defaults. Turn on VWAP and EMA filters; add HTF bias if you want fewer but cleaner signals.
2. Hunt for alignment: Pre-signal (blue/orange) → Vector (green/red) in the same direction.
3. Use your own risk model for entries/exits; the script does not place orders or compute stops/targets.
⸻
Inputs (plain English)
• ATR/Volume Periods & Z-Scores: sensitivity to volatility/participation.
• Extreme Multiplier: threshold for “Extreme” vectors.
• Structure Break (bars) & Traps: contextual confirms.
• Pre-signal gate: Min Score, Persistence (N in last M), Cooldown, Opposite-side lockout.
• Confluence: VWAP side, EMA trend, optional HTF bias (timeframe + EMA length).
• Visuals: candle painting and markers.
⸻
Design notes / limitations
• Signals evaluate on bar close. Intrabar they can form and cancel; for consistency, trade on closed bars.
• HTF bias is derived from closed HTF bars; no future data is used.
• This is an indicator, not financial advice. Backtest forward and manage risk.
⸻
Why this isn’t a “mashup”:
All components are purposeful and documented: z-score volatility + z-score volume (force & participation), body% and delta-volume (quality), structure & traps (context), and a scored, persistent pre-filter with VWAP/EMA/HTF alignment (noise control).
Wick Pressure Zones [BigBeluga]
The Wick Pressure Zones indicator highlights areas where extreme wick activity occurred, signaling strong buy or sell pressure. By measuring unusually long upper or lower wicks and mapping them into gradient volume zones , the tool helps traders identify levels where liquidity was absorbed, leaving behind footprints of supply and demand imbalances. These zones often act as support, resistance, or liquidity sweep magnets .
🔵 CONCEPTS
Extreme Wicks : Large upper or lower shadows indicate aggressive rejection — upper wicks suggest selling pressure, lower wicks suggest buying pressure.
Volumatic Gradient Zones : From each detected wick, the indicator projects a layered gradient zone, proportional to the wick’s size, showing where most pressure occurred.
Liquidity Footprints : These zones mark levels where significant buy/sell volume was executed, often becoming reaction points on future retests.
Automatic Expiration : Zones persist until price decisively trades through them, after which they are cleared to keep the chart clean.
🔵 FEATURES
Automatic Wick Detection : Identifies extreme upper and lower wick events using percentile filtering and Realative Strength Index.
Gradient Zone Visualization : Builds a 10-layer zone from the wick top/bottom, shading intensity according to pressure strength.
Volume Labels : Each zone is annotated with the bar’s volume at the origin point for added context.
Dynamic Zone Extension : Zones extend to the right as long as they remain relevant; once price closes through them, they are removed.
Support & Resistance Mapping : Upper wick zones (red) behave like supply/resistance, lower wick zones (green) like demand/support.
Clutter Control : Limits the number of active zones (default 10) to keep charts responsive.
Background Highlighting : Optional background shading when new wick zones appear (red for sell, green for buy).
🔵 HOW TO USE
Look for Upper Wick Zones (red) : Indicate strong selling pressure; watch for resistance, reversals, or liquidity sweeps above.
Look for Lower Wick Zones (green) : Indicate strong buying pressure; watch for support or liquidity sweeps below.
Trade Retests : When price returns to a zone, expect a reaction (bounce or rejection) due to leftover liquidity.
Combine with Context : Align wick pressure zones with HTF support/resistance, order blocks, or volume profile for stronger signals.
Use Volume Labels : High-volume wicks indicate more significant liquidity events, making the zone more likely to act as a strong reaction point.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Wick Pressure Zones is a powerful way to visualize hidden liquidity and aggressive rejections. By mapping extreme wick events into dynamic, volume-annotated zones, it shows traders where the market absorbed heavy buy/sell pressure. These levels frequently act as magnets or turning points, making them valuable for timing entries, stop placement, or fade strategies.
UDVR + OBV Combo — MTF (v6)The UDVR + OBV Combo is a multi-timeframe volume analysis tool that blends the Up/Down Volume Ratio with a normalized On-Balance Volume signal. It highlights when accumulation or distribution truly supports price action, adds higher-timeframe context, and shades the background when both indicators align. Use it to confirm breakouts, spot divergences, and filter trades with the backing of real volume flows.
1.Up/Down Volume Ratio (UDVR)
•Compares the rolling sum of up-volume (bars where price closed higher) vs down-volume (bars where price closed lower).
•A ratio > 1.0 = more accumulation (bullish pressure).
•A ratio < 1.0 = more distribution (bearish pressure).
•Optional histogram shows deviations from the 1.0 baseline.
•Customizable handling of equal closes (count as up, down, split, or ignore).
•Configurable lookback length and optional EMA smoothing.
2. On-Balance Volume (OBV)
•Classic cumulative OBV implemented natively (adds volume on up-bars, subtracts on down-bars).
•Normalized with a z-score so it can be compared across different symbols/timeframes.
•Includes an EMA signal line for slope detection.
•Alignment of OBV vs its EMA highlights rising or waning participation.
3. Multi-Timeframe Support
•Both UDVR and OBV can be plotted from a higher timeframe (HTF) (e.g. Daily UDVR shown on a 1h chart).
•Lets you see big-money accumulation/distribution while trading intraday.
•Shaded background when current TF and HTF agree (both bullish or both bearish).
How to read it
• Bullish confirmation = UDVR > 1 (accumulation) and OBV above EMA (rising participation).
• Bearish confirmation = UDVR < 1 (distribution) and OBV below EMA (falling participation).
• Mixed signals (e.g. UDVR > 1 but OBV falling) = caution; price may lack conviction.
• Divergences : If price makes a new high but OBV or UDVR does not, it’s a warning of weakening trend.
• Higher timeframe context : set HTF = Daily or Weekly and watch how short-term signals align with institutional flows. A long trade on the 15m chart is stronger when Daily UDVR is also above 1.
Inputs
•UDVR Lookback: number of bars for rolling volume sums.
•Smoothing EMA: smooths UDVR for stability.
•Equal Close Handling: decide how equal closes affect UDVR.
•Signal Band: optional UDVR extreme thresholds.
•Show Histogram: toggle UDVR histogram around baseline.
•Higher Timeframe UDVR: overlay Daily/Weekly UDVR on lower timeframe charts.
•OBV EMA length: slope proxy for normalized OBV.
•OBV Normalization window: controls z-score sensitivity.
•Higher Timeframe OBV: overlay higher timeframe OBV.
Alerts
•UDVR Bullish/Bearish cross at the 1.0 baseline.
•OBV slope up/down when OBV crosses its EMA.
•Alignment signals when UDVR and OBV agree (both confirm bullish or bearish conditions).
Why it’s useful
•Combines trend, momentum, and participation in one place.
•Helps avoid false breakouts by checking if volume supports the move.
•Lets you spot accumulation/distribution shifts before they show up in price.
•Gives a higher timeframe context so you’re not trading against the “big picture.”
Once applied, the indicator creates a dedicated pane below price with the following components:
UDVR Line (green/red)
• Green when UDVR > 1.0 (more up-volume than down-volume → accumulation).
• Red when UDVR < 1.0 (more down-volume → distribution).
UDVR Baseline and Bands
• Grey baseline at 1.0 = balance between buying and selling volume.
• Optional upper/lower bands (default 1.5 and 0.67) highlight extreme imbalances.
• Shaded areas between baseline and bands provide visual context for strength/weakness.
UDVR Histogram (optional)
• Columns around the baseline showing (UDVR – 1.0).
• Quick way to gauge how far above/below balance the ratio is.
Higher-Timeframe UDVR (teal line)
• Overlays the UDVR from a higher timeframe (e.g. Daily) on your intraday chart.
• Lets you see whether institutional flows support your shorter-term signals.
OBV Normalized (blue/orange line)
• Classic OBV, but normalized with a z-score so it stays readable across assets.
• Blue when OBV is above its EMA (rising participation).
• Orange when below its EMA (waning participation).
OBV EMA (grey line)
• Signal line showing the slope of OBV.
• Crosses between OBV and this line mark shifts in participation.
Higher-Timeframe OBV (purple line, optional)
• Plots OBV from a higher timeframe for additional context.
Background Shading
• Light green = both UDVR > 1 and OBV > OBV-EMA (bullish alignment).
• Light red = both UDVR < 1 and OBV < OBV-EMA (bearish alignment).

Buy/Sell Volume BalanceDESCRIPTION
Buy/Sell Volume Balance is a simple yet powerful indicator designed to measure and visualize the balance between buying and selling volume over a customizable number of recent candles. It helps traders quickly assess market pressure during consolidation phases or ranges, in order to anticipate the most likely breakout direction.
How it works
The indicator analyzes the last N candles (default = 100, user-editable).
Each candle’s total volume is classified as:
Bullish volume (Buy volume): if the candle closes above or equal to its open.
Bearish volume (Sell volume): if the candle closes below its open.
The volumes are summed separately to calculate:
Total Buy Volume
Total Sell Volume
The percentage of each side relative to the total is also displayed.
All results are shown in a fixed table at the top of the chart for quick interpretation.
Purpose
This tool is specifically designed to help traders evaluate the internal battle between buyers and sellers during a range or sideways market. By understanding which side is accumulating more volume within the range, traders can anticipate which direction is more likely when the price breaks out.
If Buy volume dominates → potential bullish breakout.
If Sell volume dominates → potential bearish breakout.
If both sides are nearly balanced, it signals indecision and a higher chance of false breakouts.
Imbalance Threshold
In practice, traders often consider a clear imbalance when one side reaches at least 55–60% of the total volume.
Above this threshold, the dominant side is more likely to dictate the breakout direction.
Below this threshold, the market is usually in indecision and further confirmation is needed before acting.
How to use it
Add the indicator to your chart and choose the lookback period (number of candles).
Focus on ranges or consolidation zones where price is moving sideways.
Observe the balance of Buy vs Sell volume in the top-right box:
A clear imbalance (>55–60%) suggests the stronger side is more likely to push the breakout.
A balanced ratio (<55–60%) indicates indecision and possible false breakouts.
Use it in combination with support/resistance zones, breakout patterns, or volume spikes for best results.
✅ In summary: This indicator does not give direct buy/sell signals, but it provides valuable context about market pressure, helping you to align your trades with the most probable breakout direction.
Trapped Traders [ScorsoneEnterprises]This indicator identifies and visualizes trapped traders - market participants caught on the wrong side of price movements with significant volume imbalances. By analyzing volume delta at specific price levels, it reveals where traders are likely experiencing unrealized losses and may be forced to exit their positions.
The point of this tool is to identify where the liquidity in a trend may be.
var lowerTimeframe = switch
useCustomTimeframeInput => lowerTimeframeInput
timeframe.isseconds => "1S"
timeframe.isintraday => "1"
timeframe.isdaily => "5"
=> "60"
= ta.requestVolumeDelta(lowerTimeframe)
price_quantity = map.new()
is_red_candle = close < open
is_green_candle = close > open
for i=0 to lkb-1 by 1
current_vol = price_quantity.get(close)
new_vol = na(current_vol) ? lastVolume : current_vol + lastVolume
price_quantity.put(close, new_vol)
if is_green_candle and new_vol < 0
price_quantity.put(close, new_vol)
else if is_red_candle and new_vol > 0
price_quantity.put(close, new_vol)
We see in this snippet, the lastVolume variable is the most recent volume delta we can receive from the lower timeframe, we keep updating the price level we're keeping track of with that lastVolume from the lower timeframe.
This is the bulk of the concept as this level and size gives us the idea of how many traders were on the wrong side of the trend, and acting as liquidity for the profitable entries. The more, the stronger.
There are 3 ways to visualize this. A basic label, that will display the size and if positive or negative next to the bar, a gradient line that goes 10 bars to the future to be used as a support or resistance line that includes the quantity, and a bubble chart with the quantity. The larger the quantity, the bigger the bubble.
We see in this example on NYMEX:CL1! that there are lines plotted throughout this price action that price interacts with in meaningful way. There are consistently many levels for us.
Here on CME_MINI:ES1! we see the labels on the chart, and the size set to large. It is the same concept just another way to view it.
This chart of CME_MINI:RTY1! shows the bubble chart visualization. It is a way to view it that is pretty non invasive on the chart.
Every timeframe is supported including daily, weekly, and monthly.
The included settings are the display style, like mentioned above. If the user would like to see the volume numbers on the chart. The text size along with the transparency percentage. Following that is the settings for which lower timeframe to calculate the volume delta on. Finally, if you would like to see your inputs in the status line.
No indicator is 100% accurate, use "Trapped Traders" along with your own discretion.
