Zanger Volume Ratio (ZVR)Zanger Volume Ratio (ZVR)
Credits:
Most of the underlying code and logic in this script have been adapted from the work originally published by The_Peaceful_Lizard
Overview
The Zanger Volume Ratio (ZVR) is a powerful indicator designed to reveal market dynamics by comparing current cumulative volume to an average determined over a historical look-back period. It uses the concept of relative volume to not only highlight unusual volume spikes, but also uses color to illustrate how today's trading compares to typical levels. This unique method of volume analysis was popularized by Dan Zanger - a trader known for turning $10,775 into $18,000,000 in less than two years - by identifying key shifts in market interest and volume behavior.
Key Features
Volume Pacing Analysis:
The script calculates a volume delta by comparing the cumulative volume at any given moment to an average derived over a user-defined lookback period (Default 20-day). The resulting percentage difference offers a clear visualization and insight into unusual volume activity.
Dynamic Visual Representation:
Choose between either “Columns” or “Area” plot styles to display the percent difference. Additionally, you have the option to switch between a standard plot or a background color display, with customizable transparency, ensuring the indicator fits seamlessly with your chart’s aesthetics.
Dashboard Integration:
A simple dashboard table is displayed on the chart, showcasing the current ZVR value in real-time. With user-configurable position, text size, alignment, and color options, this feature ensures that the key metric is always visible and easy to interpret.
Why Use the Zanger Volume Ratio?
The ZVR is more than just a volume indicator. It acts as a window into market sentiment by highlighting days when trading interest intensifies. Many traders believe that an unusually high volume ratio may confirm trend strength or signal a reversal, making the indicator a valuable tool when used in conjunction with other technical analysis methods.
Whether you’re monitoring stocks, commodities, or forex markets, the Zanger Volume Ratio offers an accessible yet sophisticated method to decode volume dynamics. Its practical design and real-time visual feedback provide traders of all experience levels with critical data to spot high-potential setups.

Enhanced Volume Profile [TFO]The Enhanced Volume Profile analyzes volume by price to find potential inflection points that we can reference in future price action.
The volume profiles altogether are simply an estimation from price/volume data that TradingView is capable of providing. Below is an example of 1 day volume profiles. The left chart uses 50 rows for each profile, while the right chart uses 500 rows. As a result, the right chart is capable of providing much greater detail.
Profile Timeframe specifies the timeframe of the profile to be constructed. When set to 1 day for example, then each profile represents the price/volume data from 1 daily bar.
Resolution Timeframe is the timeframe of price/volume data used to construct the profile. Lower timeframes result in higher resolution, but also greater computation time.
Below is an example of 1 day volume profiles. Both charts are using 250 rows for every profile, but the left chart is using a 15m resolution timeframe, while the right chart is using a 1m resolution timeframe. The lower timeframe data on the right chart allows for greater detail than the left.
Volume Point of Control (VPOC) shows the price level where the most volume was traded during a given session. Show VPOCs will draw these levels on each volume profile, with the corresponding color. In the following chart, each solid blue line represents a VPOC for the corresponding session.
Extend Recent VPOCs will track the N most recent VPOC levels, and extend them to the right side of the chart for easy visual reference. Show VPOC Labels will annotate each VPOC extension with the date (and time, for lower timeframes) that each corresponding profile began. Below is an example where Extend Recent VPOCs and Show VPOC Labels are both enabled.
Show Previous HVN will show High Volume Nodes from previous sessions, and extend them until price trades through them. When a session ends, any new HVNs located above that close price will be red while any HVNs below will be green (default colors).
HVNs are validated with a strength parameter that compares the peak volume to its neighboring levels to determine local extremes, along with a percentile filter to optionally specify if valid nodes must contain a peak volume greater than X% of the volume traded at VPOC.
The same capabilities exist for Low Volume Nodes as well. Show Previous LVN will extend these Low Volume Nodes from previous sessions until price trades through them.
The default color scheme will color nodes proportionate to the individual session. For example, a HVN derived from VPOC would always result in the deepest possible color because the node's peak contains the highest volume traded for that session. Every lesser node would be colored lighter than this, proportional to that session's VPOC.
We can also choose to color these nodes in a way that reflects their relative volume compared to recent sessions. For HVNs, darker colors imply more volume was traded at said nodes while lighter colors imply less volume. In the following example, the left chart uses the session based color scheme while the right chart uses the historical color scheme.

RVOL/ExpVol/ATR/ExpRGives 4 values:
- Relative Volume: needs the first 5M candle to have closed to give a good value then updates every 5 minute throughout the day. Compares to the historical Volume on the last 30 days on the SAME time period from Open.
Most indicators compare to the average volume on any 30min period, thus highly overestimating the RVOL at Open when Volume is higher.
- Expected Volume on the day in Million of shares given the RVOL.
- Average True Range on the last 14 days
- Expected Range on the day given the ATR & the RVOL.
Warning: Expected Range is just an estimation from data I gathered but the Day's range can be way higher or lower than that. Also if RVOL > 3 then the estimation works less & less.
As this was originally coded just for me I don't ask user input for things like the lookback period or the refresh period. You have to make a copy & go in the code and modify it if you want to change it.
Also the data displayed is given for the candle on which your cursor is !
Works best on 5-minute and above chart timeframes.
[TTI] Zanger Volume Ratio - Intraday––––HISTORY & CREDITS 🏦
The Zanger Volume Ratio - Intraday indicator is inspired by the work of Dan Zanger, a renowned trader and creator of the Zanger Volume Ratio tool. This specific adaptation of the ratio is designed for the TradingView platform and focuses on intraday trading. Dan Zanger used this same method of reading the chart to establish a world record in turning HKEX:10 ,775 into HKEX:18 ,000,000 in under 2 years.
––––WHAT IT DOES 💡
The Zanger Volume Ratio - Intraday indicator measures the estimated end-of-day volume percentage based on intraday (depending on the timeframe of your chart) comparisons for the last X days (input in the settings). It provides insights into the stock's trading volume in real-time throughout the trading day, giving traders an idea of the stock's relative volume compared to its recent trading history. For instance if you add it to a 5min chart the ratio represents the estimated end of day volume percent based on the last 3 days, the indicator will compare the cumulative volume of the current day to the X days back cumulative average up to that same point in time and tell you how it is around the thresholds.
The indicator categorizes the volume into five levels: Extreme, High, Average, Light, and Dry Up, each represented by different colors on the chart. It also displays a pace indicator, which shows whether the volume is increasing or decreasing during the trading session.
There is also a label that shows the current reading and its pace. The pace is the indication wether the volume ratio pace is increasing and picking up or it is slowing down.
Thesholds
👉EXTREME (red): >200, means "Volume is 200% of average daily volume
👉HIGH (magenta): 110
👉AVERAGE (peach): 85
👉LIGHT (orange): 60
👉DRY (gray): <60
––––HOW TO USE IT 🔧
To use the Zanger Volume Ratio - Intraday indicator effectively, follow these steps:
1️⃣ Apply the indicator to your TradingView chart with an intraday timeframe (>=1min and less than 1 day).
2️⃣Observe the real-time volume levels and their corresponding categories (Extreme, High, Average, Light, and Dry Up) to understand the current volume dynamics.
3️⃣Keep an eye on the pace indicator (arrows) to see if the volume is increasing or decreasing during the session.
4️⃣Use the information provided by the indicator to confirm trade setups, identify potential breakouts, or detect possible reversals. For example, a stock breaking out of a key area with high or extreme volume and an increasing pace arrow may indicate a strong upward move. Conversely, a stock pulling back on light or dry up volume could signal a continuation of the trend once the volume picks up again.
Remember to combine the Zanger Volume Ratio - Intraday indicator with other technical analysis tools and your own trading strategy to make informed decisions.
Equivolume - volume as candle widthDo price action and volume really need to be on separate graphs? Why not display them both on a single graph and reduce the clutter? Presenting Equivolume candles here on TradingView - inspired by the NinjaTrader implementation
This indicator allows you to view traditional OHLC candles but with the additional ability to see relative volume through variations of width and/or transparency
Explanation
- Wide and/or full colour candles have the highest volume
- Thin and/or highly transparent candles have the lowest volume
- The following diagram shows the Equivolume indicator as well as a traditional volume graph along the bottom. You can see that when the volume is highest, the candle is widest and also the most intense color.
- The `Lookback candle count` user parameter specifies the number of candles to use in order to locate the highest volume within that range. All other candle widths in the range will be adjusted relative to this highest volume
Tips
- Toggle off the visibility of the original graph for the instrument to get the best view of the candles when using variable transparency
Gotchas
- Due to a Pine Script limitation a maximum of 500 variable width candles can be drawn on the chart
- If `Lookback candle count` is higher than the total number of available candles for the instrument, then the indicator will fail and not display anything. I’m still investigating how to handle this case better
- Be aware if you are using the `High` setting for the `Transparency range` parameter, candles with the lowest volume will be virtually invisible
[KL] Relative Volume StrategyThis strategy will Long when:
Confirmation #1: when volume is relatively high
Confirmation #2: during periods of price consolidation (See )
It exits when either (a) stop loss limit is reached, or when (b) price actions suggest trend is bearish.
Measuring price volatility to assume consolidation:
For each candlestick, we quantify price volatility by referring to the value of standard deviations (2x) of closing prices over a look-back period of 20 candles. This is exactly what the Bollinger Band (“BOLL”) indicates by default.
Knowing the value of standard deviation (2x) of prices (aka the width of lower/upper BOLL bands), we then compare it with ATR (x2) over a user-defined length (can be configured in settings). Volatility is considered to be low, relatively, when the standard deviation (x2) of prices is less than ATR (2x).
Spread AnalyzerThis script plots the relative performance of the viewed security with respect to a selected benchmark. It can be used to identify assets higher than market average potential.
- The plot above is the relative volume.
- The plot below is the relative performance.
Computation is done by applying stochastic to the spread of the asset's current price/obv value to the benchmark defined by the Part1, 2 and 3.
The benchmark can be a portfolio as well:
Part1 = 4*SPY+2*QQQ
Part2 = XAUUSD+EURUSD
-PS: Each part may contain up to 10 symbols.
- The spread is calculated with the following formula
close / (Part1 + Part2 + Part3)
- Color code is based on the stochastic of macd of the spread.
The inputs:
length : lookback length for the stochastic
lenk : Smoothing factor(K) for stochastic
lend : EMA length(D)
MACD Fast / Slow / Smooth : MACD parameters used to determine the color code
Volume+ (RVOL/Alerts)This indicator colors the volume bars based on any of the three follow criteria:
- Volume Amount
- RVOL (Relative Volume)
- Lookback (Highest Over Period)
You can use one, two or all three of these settings at the same time.
You can also set alerts with this indicator. The script will trigger an alert whenever any of the three specified flags are triggered.
RVOL is calculated as: Volume divided by Moving Average value. You can change the moving average period (and type) in the settings.

Breakout Volume Momentum [5m]Breakout Volume Momentum Indicator (Pine Script v5)
This TradingView Pine Script v5 indicator plots a green dot below a 5-minute price bar whenever all the breakout and volume conditions are met. It is optimized for live intraday trading (not backtesting) and includes customizable inputs for thresholds and trading session times. Key features and conditions of this indicator:
Gap Up Threshold: Current price is up at least X% (default 20%) from the previous day’s close (uses higher-timeframe daily data) before any signal can trigger.
Relative Volume (RVOL): Current bar’s volume is at least Y× (default 2×) the average volume of the last 20 bars. This ensures unusually high volume is present, indicating strong interest.
Trend Alignment: Price is trading above the VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) and above a fast EMA. In addition, the fast EMA (default 9) is above the slower EMA (default 20) to confirm bullish momentum
tradingview.com
tradingview.com
. These filters ensure the stock is in an intraday uptrend (above the average price and rising EMAs).
Intraday Breakout (optional): Optionally require the price to break above the recent intraday high (default last 30 bars). If enabled, a signal only occurs when the stock exceeds its prior range high, confirming a breakout. This can be toggled on/off in the settings.
Avoid Parabolic Spikes: The script skips any bar with an excessively large range (default >12% from low to high), to avoid triggering on spiky or unsustainable parabolic candles.
Time Window Filter: Signals are restricted to a specific session window (by default 09:30 – 11:00 exchange time, typically the morning session) and will not trigger outside these hours. The session window is adjustable via inputs

BT Bar - 1.0 BTBar Description
BTBar is a visual script designed to identify and highlight candles with abnormally high volume, making it easier for traders to spot pressure imbalances and key price areas during live market action.
🔍 The script compares the current candle’s volume to the previous one, and highlights candles that exceed specific percentage thresholds (customizable by the user) using distinct colors.
Rather than relying on generic trend or scalping strategies, BTBar is based on relative volume intensity detection — a concept rooted in order flow analysis — to help traders identify:
Candles with unusual volume spikes (possible absorption or exhaustion),
Medium/high volume continuation signals,
Areas where price might reverse or accelerate.
🛠️ It also offers the option to automatically draw horizontal lines from the open of the highest-volume candles, helping traders track potential institutional decision levels throughout the day.
⚙️ How to use:
Apply BTBar to a clean chart.
Customize the volume threshold levels (e.g., 300%, 400%, etc.).
Watch for highlighted candles — these indicate moments when volume significantly broke previous levels, marking potential points of interest or behavior shifts.
Use the optional horizontal lines as visual support/resistance levels derived from volume extremes.
🧠 Underlying concept:
BTBar uses a percentage-based volume comparison approach, inspired by techniques in footprint charts and volume spike detection.
This allows traders to visually spot key market reactions without relying on numeric overload or complex setups.

The standout feature of this indicator is its comprehensive 8-metric relative strength scoring system that compares your current ticker against both QQQ (Nasdaq-100) and SPY (S&P 500) benchmarks.
The 4-Metric Relative Strength System Explained
Metric 1: Relative Strength Ratio (RSR)
Purpose: Measures whether your ticker is outperforming or underperforming relative to its historical relationship with the benchmarks.
How it works:
Calculates the ratio of your ticker's price to QQQ/SPY prices
Compares current ratio to a 20-period moving average of the ratio
Scores +1 if ratio is above average (relative strength), -1 if below (relative weakness)
Trading significance: Identifies when a stock is breaking out of its normal correlation pattern with major indices.
Metric 2: Percentage-Based Relative Performance
Purpose: Compares short-term percentage changes to identify immediate relative momentum.
How it works:
Calculates 5-day percentage change for your ticker and benchmarks
Subtracts benchmark performance from ticker performance
Scores +1 if outperforming by >1%, -1 if underperforming by >1%, 0 for neutral
Trading significance: Captures recent momentum shifts and identifies stocks moving independently of market direction.
Metric 3: Beta-Adjusted Relative Strength (Alpha)
Purpose: Measures risk-adjusted performance by accounting for the ticker's natural volatility relationship with benchmarks.
How it works:
Calculates rolling beta (correlation and variance relationship)
Determines expected returns based on benchmark moves and beta
Measures alpha (excess returns above/below expectations)
Scores based on whether alpha is consistently positive or negative
Trading significance: Identifies stocks generating returns beyond what their risk profile would suggest, indicating fundamental strength or weakness.
Metric 4: Volume-Weighted Relative Strength
Purpose: Incorporates volume analysis to validate price-based relative strength signals.
How it works:
Compares VWAP-based percentage changes between ticker and benchmarks
Applies volume weighting factor based on relative volume strength
Enhances score when high relative volume confirms price movements
Trading significance: Distinguishes between genuine institutional-driven moves and low-volume price action that may not sustain.
Combined Scoring System
The indicator generates 8 individual scores (4 metrics × 2 benchmarks) that combine into a single strength assessment:
Score Interpretation
Strong (4-8 points): Ticker significantly outperforming both benchmarks across multiple methodologies
Moderate Strong (1-3 points): Ticker showing good relative strength with some mixed signals
Neutral (0 points): Balanced performance relative to benchmarks
Moderate Weak (-1 to -3 points): Ticker showing relative weakness with some mixed signals
Weak (-4 to -8 points): Ticker significantly underperforming both benchmarks
Display Format
The indicator shows results as: "Strong (6/8)" indicating the ticker scored 6 out of 8 possible points.
Volume CandlesVolume Candles — Context-Aware Candle Color
Description:
This visual indicator colors your price candles based on relative volume intensity, helping traders instantly detect low, medium, and high volume activity at a glance. It supports two modes — Percentile Ranking and Volume Average — offering flexible interpretation of volume pressure across all timeframes.
It uses a 3-tiered color system (bright, medium, dark) with customizable tones for both bullish and bearish candles.
How It Works:
You can choose between two modes for volume classification:
Ranking Mode (Default):
Measures current volume’s percentile rank over a lookback period. Higher percentiles = stronger color intensity.
Percentile thresholds:
< 50% → light color (low volume)
50–80% → medium intensity
> 80% → high volume
Volume Average Mode:
Compares current volume against its simple moving average (SMA).
Volume thresholds:
< 0.5× SMA → light color
Between 0.5× and 1.5× → medium
> 1.5× → high intensity
Candle Paint:
Candles are colored directly on the chart, not in a separate pane. Bullish candles use green shades, bearish use red. All colors are fully customizable.
How to Interpret:
Bright Colors = High volume (potential strength or climax)
Muted/Transparent Colors = Low or average volume (consolidation, traps)
Example Use Cases:
Spot fakeouts with large price movement on weak volume (dark color)
Confirm breakout strength with bright candles
Identify stealth accumulation/distribution
Inputs & Settings:
Mode: Ranking Percentile or Volume Average
Lookback Period for ranking and SMA
Custom Colors for bullish and bearish candles at 3 intensity levels
Best For:
Price action traders wanting context behind each candle
Scalpers and intraday traders needing real-time volume feedback
Anyone using volume as a filter for entries or breakouts
Pro Tips:
Combine with Price Action, Bollinger Bands or VWAP/EMA levels to confirm breakout validity and intent behind a move.
Use alongside RSI/MACD divergences for high-volume reversal signals.
For swing trading, expand the lookback period to better normalize volume over longer trends.

Core Features
1. Volume Analysis Dashboard
The indicator displays various volume-related metrics in customizable tables:
AVOL (After Hours + Pre-Market Volume): Shows extended hours volume as a percentage of the 21-day average volume with color coding for buying/selling pressure. Green indicates buying pressure and red indicates selling pressure.
Volume Metrics: Includes regular volume (VOL), dollar volume ($VOL), relative volume compared to 21-day average (RVOL), and relative volume compared to 90-day average (RVOL90D).
Pre-Market Data: Optional display of pre-market volume (PVOL), pre-market dollar volume (P$VOL), pre-market relative volume (PRVOL), and pre-market price change percentage (PCHG%).
2. Enhanced Volume Trend (VTR) Analysis
The Volume Trend indicator uses adaptive analysis to evaluate buying and selling pressure, combining multiple factors:
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) components
Volume-to-SMA (Simple Moving Average) ratio
Price direction and market conditions
Volume change rates and momentum
EMA (Exponential Moving Average) alignment and crossovers
Volatility filtering
VTR Visual Indicators
The VTR score ranges from 0-100, with values above 50 indicating bullish conditions and below 50 indicating bearish conditions. This is visually represented by colored circles:
"●" (Filled Circle):
Green: Strong bullish trend (VTR ≥ 80)
Red: Strong bearish trend (VTR ≤ 20)
"◯" (Hollow Circle):
Green: Moderate bullish trend (VTR 65-79)
Red: Moderate bearish trend (VTR 21-35)
"·" (Small Dot):
Green: Weak bullish trend (VTR 55-64)
Red: Weak bearish trend (VTR 36-45)
"○" (Medium Hollow Circle): Neutral conditions (VTR 46-54), shown in gray
In "Both" display mode, the VTR shows both the numerical score (0-100) alongside the appropriate circle symbol.
Enhanced VTR Settings
The Enhanced Volume Trend component offers several advanced customization options:
Adaptive Volume Analysis (volTrendAdaptive):
When enabled, dynamically adjusts volume thresholds based on recent market volatility
Higher volatility periods require proportionally higher volume to generate significant signals
Helps prevent false signals during highly volatile markets
Keep enabled for most trading conditions, especially in volatile markets
Speed of Change Weight (volTrendSpeedWeight, range 0-1):
Controls emphasis on volume acceleration/deceleration rather than absolute levels
Higher values (0.7-1.0): More responsive to new volume trends, better for momentum trading
Lower values (0.2-0.5): Less responsive, better for trend following
Helps identify early volume trends before they fully develop
Momentum Period (volTrendMomentumPeriod, range 2-10):
Defines lookback period for volume change rate calculations
Lower values (2-3): More responsive to recent changes, better for short timeframes
Higher values (7-10): Smoother, better for daily/weekly charts
Directly affects how quickly the indicator responds to new volume patterns
Volatility Filter (volTrendVolatilityFilter):
Adjusts significance of volume by factoring in current price volatility
High volume during high volatility receives less weight
High volume during low volatility receives more weight
Helps distinguish between genuine volume-driven moves and volatility-driven moves
EMA Alignment Weight (volTrendEmaWeight, range 0-1):
Controls importance of EMA alignments in final VTR calculation
Analyzes multiple EMA relationships (5, 10, 21 period)
Higher values (0.7-1.0): Greater emphasis on trend structure
Lower values (0.2-0.5): More focus on pure volume patterns
Display Mode (volTrendDisplayMode):
"Value": Shows only numerical score (0-100)
"Strength": Shows only symbolic representation
"Both": Shows numerical score and symbol together
3. Bollinger Band Squeeze Detection (SQZ)
The BB Squeeze indicator identifies periods of low volatility when Bollinger Bands contract inside Keltner Channels, often preceding significant price movements.
SQZ Visual Indicators
"●" (Filled Circle): Strong squeeze - high probability setup for an impending breakout
Green: Strong squeeze with bullish bias (likely upward breakout)
Red: Strong squeeze with bearish bias (likely downward breakout)
Orange: Strong squeeze with unclear direction
"◯" (Hollow Circle): Moderate squeeze - medium probability setup
Green: With bullish EMA alignment
Red: With bearish EMA alignment
Orange: Without clear directional bias
"-" (Dash): Gray dash indicates no squeeze condition (normal volatility)
The script identifies squeeze conditions through multiple methods:
Bollinger Bands contracting inside Keltner Channels
BB width falling to bottom 20% of recent range (BB width percentile)
Very narrow Keltner Channel (less than 5% of basis price)
Tracking squeeze duration in consecutive bars
Different squeeze strengths are detected:
Strong Squeeze: BB inside KC with tight BB width and narrow KC
Moderate Squeeze: BB inside KC with either tight BB width or narrow KC
No Squeeze: Normal market conditions
4. Breakout Detection System
The script includes two breakout indicators working in sequence:
4.1 Pre-Breakout (PBK) Indicator
Detects potential upcoming breakouts by analyzing multiple factors:
Squeeze conditions lasting 2-3 bars or more
Significant price ranges
Strong volume confirmation
EMA/MACD crossovers
Consistent price direction
PBK Visual Indicators
"●" (Filled Circle): Detected pre-breakout condition
Green: Likely upward breakout (bullish)
Red: Likely downward breakout (bearish)
Orange: Direction not yet clear, but breakout likely
"-" (Dash): Gray dash indicates no pre-breakout condition
The PBK uses sophisticated conditions to reduce false signals including minimum squeeze length, significant price movement, and technical confirmations.
4.2 Breakout (BK) Indicator
Confirms actual breakouts in progress by identifying:
End of squeeze or strong expansion of Bollinger Bands
Volume expansion
Price moving outside Bollinger Bands
EMA crossovers with volume confirmation
MACD crossovers with significant price range
BK Visual Indicators
"●" (Filled Circle): Confirmed breakout in progress
Green: Upward breakout (bullish)
Red: Downward breakout (bearish)
Orange: Unusual breakout pattern without clear direction
"◆" (Diamond): Special breakout conditions (meets some but not all criteria)
"-" (Dash): Gray dash indicates no breakout detected
The BK indicator uses advanced filters for confirmation:
Requires consecutive breakout signals to reduce false positives
Strong volume confirmation requirements (40% above average)
Significant price movement thresholds
Consistency checks between price action and indicators
5. Market Metrics and Analysis
Price Change Percentage (CHG%)
Displays the current percentage change relative to the previous day's close, color-coded green for positive changes and red for negative changes.
Average Daily Range (ADR%)
Calculates the average daily percentage range over a specified period (default 20 days), helping traders gauge volatility and set appropriate price targets.
Average True Range (ATR)
Shows the Average True Range value, a volatility indicator developed by J. Welles Wilder that measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of an asset price for that period.
Relative Strength Index (RSI)
Displays the standard 14-period RSI, a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements on a scale from 0 to 100.
6. External Market Indicators
QQQ Change
Shows the percentage change in the Invesco QQQ Trust (tracking the Nasdaq-100 Index), useful for understanding broader tech market trends.
UVIX Change
Displays the percentage change in UVIX, a volatility index, providing insight into market fear and potential hedging activity.
BTC-USD
Shows the current Bitcoin price from Coinbase, useful for traders monitoring crypto correlation with equities.
Market Breadth (BRD)
Calculates the percentage difference between ATHI.US and ATLO.US (high vs. low securities), indicating overall market direction and strength.
7. Session Analysis and Volume Direction
Session Detection
The script accurately identifies different market sessions:
Pre-market: 4:00 AM to 9:30 AM
Regular market: 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM
After-hours: 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM
Closed: Outside trading hours
This detection works on any timeframe through careful calculation of current time in seconds.
Buy/Sell Volume Direction
The script analyzes buying and selling pressure by:
Counting up volume when close > open
Counting down volume when close < open
Tracking accumulated volume within the day
Calculating intraday pressure (up volume minus down volume)
Enhanced AVOL Calculation
The improved AVOL calculation works in all timeframes by:
Estimating typical pre-market and after-hours volume percentages
Combining yesterday's after-hours with today's pre-market volume
Calculating this as a percentage of the 21-day average volume
Determining buying/selling pressure by analyzing after-hours and pre-market price changes
Color-coding results: green for buying pressure, red for selling pressure
This calculation is particularly valuable because it works consistently across any timeframe.
Customization Options
Display Settings
The dashboard has two customizable tables: Volume Table and Metrics Table, with positions selectable as bottom_left or bottom_right.
All metrics can be individually toggled on/off:
Pre-market data (PVOL, P$VOL, PRVOL, PCHG%)

MACD Weight: Controls how much influence MACD has on the volume trend score (default 0.3)
These settings allow traders to fine-tune how momentum is factored into the volume trend analysis.
Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channel Settings
The Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels used for squeeze detection have preset (hidden) parameters:
BB Length: 20 periods
BB Multiplier: 2.0 standard deviations
Keltner Length: 20 periods
Keltner Multiplier: 1.5 ATR
These settings follow standard practice for squeeze detection while maintaining simplicity in the user interface.
Practical Trading Applications
Complete Trading Strategies
1. Squeeze Breakout Strategy
This strategy combines multiple components of the indicator:
Wait for a strong squeeze (SQZ showing ●)
Look for pre-breakout confirmation (PBK showing ● in green or red)
Enter when breakout is confirmed (BK showing ● in same direction)
Use VTR to confirm volume supports the move (VTR ≥ 65 for bullish or ≤ 35 for bearish)
Set profit targets based on ADR (Average Daily Range)
Exit when VTR begins to weaken or changes direction
2. Volume Divergence Strategy
This strategy focuses on the volume trend relative to price:
Identify when price makes a new high but VTR fails to confirm (divergence)
Look for VTR to show weakening trend (● changing to ◯ or ·)
Prepare for potential reversal when SQZ begins to form
Enter counter-trend position when PBK confirms reversal direction
Use external indicators (QQQ, BTC, Breadth) to confirm broader market support
3. Pre-Market Edge Strategy
This strategy leverages pre-market data:
Monitor AVOL for unusual pre-market activity (significantly above 100%)
Check pre-market price change direction (PCHG%)
Enter position at market open if VTR confirms direction
Use SQZ to determine if volatility is likely to expand
Exit based on RVOL declining or price reaching +/- ADR for the day
Market Context Integration
The indicator provides valuable context for trading decisions:
QQQ change shows tech market direction
BTC price shows crypto market correlation
UVIX change indicates volatility expectations
Breadth measurement shows market internals
This context helps traders avoid fighting the broader market and align trades with overall market direction.
Timeframe Optimization
The indicator is designed to work across different timeframes:
For day trading: Focus on AVOL, VTR, PBK/BK, and use shorter momentum periods
For swing trading: Focus on SQZ duration, VTR strength, and broader market indicators
For position trading: Focus on larger VTR trends and use EMA alignment weight
Advanced Analytical Components
Enhanced Volume Trend Score Calculation
The VTR score calculation is sophisticated, with the base score starting at 50 and adjusting for:
Price direction (up/down)
Volume relative to average (high/normal/low)
Volume acceleration/deceleration
Market conditions (bull/bear)
Additional factors are then applied, including:
MACD influence weighted by strength and direction
Volume change rate influence (speed)
Price/volume divergence effects
EMA alignment scores
Volatility adjustments
Breakout strength factors
Price action confirmations
The final score is clamped between 0-100, with values above 50 indicating bullish conditions and below 50 indicating bearish conditions.
Anti-False Signal Filters
The indicator employs multiple techniques to reduce false signals:
Requiring significant price range (minimum percentage movement)
Demanding strong volume confirmation (significantly above average)
Checking for consistent direction across multiple indicators
Requiring prior bar consistency (consecutive bars moving in same direction)
Counting consecutive signals to filter out noise
These filters help eliminate noise and focus on high-probability setups.
MACD Enhancement and Integration
The indicator enhances standard MACD analysis:
Calculating MACD relative strength compared to recent history
Normalizing MACD slope relative to volatility
Detecting MACD acceleration for stronger signals
Integrating MACD crossovers with other confirmation factors
EMA Analysis System
The indicator uses a comprehensive EMA analysis system:
Calculating multiple EMAs (5, 10, 21 periods)
Detecting golden cross (10 EMA crosses above 21 EMA)
Detecting death cross (10 EMA crosses below 21 EMA)
Assessing price position relative to EMAs
Measuring EMA separation percentage

Fusion Sniper X [ Crypto Strategy]📌 Fusion Sniper X — Description for TradingView
Overview:
Fusion Sniper X is a purpose-built algorithmic trading strategy designed for cryptocurrency markets, especially effective on the 1-hour chart. It combines advanced trend analysis, momentum filtering, volatility confirmation, and dynamic trade management to deliver a fast-reacting, high-precision trading system. This script is not a basic mashup of indicators, but a fully integrated strategy with logical synergy between components, internal equity management, and visual trade analytics via a customizable dashboard.
🔍 How It Works
🔸 Trend Detection – McGinley Dynamic + Gradient Slope
McGinley Dynamic is used as the baseline to reflect adaptive price action more responsively than standard moving averages.
A custom gradient filter, calculated using the slope of the McGinley line normalized by ATR, determines if the market is trending up or down.
trendUp when slope > 0
trendDown when slope < 0
🔸 Momentum Confirmation – ZLEMA-Smoothed CCI
CCI (Commodity Channel Index) is used to detect momentum strength and direction.
It is further smoothed with ZLEMA (Zero Lag EMA) to reduce noise while keeping lag minimal.
Entry is confirmed when:
CCI > 0 (Bullish momentum)
CCI < 0 (Bearish momentum)
🔸 Volume Confirmation – Relative Volume Spike Filter
Uses a 20-period EMA of volume to calculate the expected average.
Trades are only triggered if real-time volume exceeds this average by a user-defined multiplier (default: 1.5x), filtering out low-conviction signals.
🔸 Trap Detection – Wick-to-Body Reversal Filter
Filters out potential trap candles using wick-to-body ratio and body size compared to ATR.
Avoids entering on manipulative price spikes where:
Long traps show large lower wicks.
Short traps show large upper wicks.
🔸 Entry Conditions
A trade is only allowed when:
Within selected date range
Cooldown between trades is respected
Daily drawdown guard is not triggered
All of the following align:
Trend direction (McGinley slope)
Momentum confirmation (CCI ZLEMA)
Volume spike active
No trap candle detected
🎯 Trade Management Logic
✅ Take Profit (TP1/TP2 System)
TP1: 50% of the position is closed at a predefined % gain (default 2%).
TP2: Remaining 100% is closed at a higher profit level (default 4%).
🛑 Stop Loss
A fixed 2% stop loss is enforced per position using strategy.exit(..., stop=...) logic.
Stop loss is active for both TP2 and primary entries and updates the dashboard if triggered.
❄️ Cooldown & Equity Protection
A user-defined cooldown period (in bars) prevents overtrading.
A daily equity loss guard blocks new trades if portfolio drawdown exceeds a % threshold (default: 2.5%).
📊 Real-Time Dashboard (On-Chart Table)
Fusion Sniper X features a futuristic, color-coded dashboard with theme controls, showing:
Current position and entry price
Real-time profit/loss (%)
TP1, TP2, and SL status
Trend and momentum direction
Volume spike state and trap candle alerts
Trade statistics: total, win/loss, drawdown
Symbol and timeframe display
Themes include: Neon, Cyber, Monochrome, and Dark Techno.
📈 Visuals
McGinley baseline is plotted in orange for trend bias.
Bar colors reflect active positions (green for long, red for short).
Stop loss line plotted in red when active.
Background shading highlights active volume spikes.
✅ Why It’s Not Just a Mashup
Fusion Sniper X is an original system architecture built on:
Custom logic (gradient-based trend slope, wick trap rejection)
Synergistic indicator stacking (ZLEMA-smoothed momentum, ATR-based slope)
Position and equity tracking (not just signal-based plotting)
Intelligent risk control with take-profits, stop losses, cooldown, and max loss rules
An interactive dashboard that enhances usability and transparency
Every component has a distinct role in the system, and none are used as-is from public sources without modification or integration logic. The design follows a cohesive and rule-based structure for algorithmic execution.
⚠️ Disclaimer
This strategy is for educational and informational purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice. Trading cryptocurrencies involves substantial risk, and past performance is not indicative of future results. Always backtest and forward-test before using on a live account. Use at your own risk.
📅 Backtest Range & Market Conditions Note
The performance results displayed for Fusion Sniper X are based on a focused backtest period from December 1, 2024 to May 10, 2025. This range was chosen intentionally due to the dynamic and volatile nature of cryptocurrency markets, where structural and behavioral shifts can occur rapidly. By evaluating over a shorter, recent time window, the strategy is tuned to current market mechanics and avoids misleading results that could come from outdated market regimes. This ensures more realistic, forward-aligned performance — particularly important for high-frequency systems operating on the 1-hour timeframe.
Trend Surge Wick SniperTrend Surge Wick Sniper | Non-Repainting Trend + Momentum Strategy with TP1/TP2 & Dashboard
Trend Surge Wick Sniper is a complete crypto trading strategy designed for high-precision entries, smart exits, and non-repainting execution. It combines trend slope, wick rejection, volume confirmation, and CCI momentum filters into a seamless system that works in real-time conditions — whether you're manual trading or sending alerts to multi-exchange bots.
🧩 System Architecture Overview
This is not just a mashup of indicators — each layer is tightly integrated to filter for confirmed, high-quality setups. Here’s a detailed breakdown:
📈 Trend Logic
1. McGinley Dynamic Baseline
A responsive moving average that adapts to market speed better than EMA or SMA.
Smooths price while staying close to real action, making it ideal for basing alignment or trend context.
2. Gradient Slope Filter (ATR-normalized)
Calculates the difference between current and past McGinley values, divided by ATR for normalization.
If the slope exceeds a configurable threshold, it confirms an active uptrend or downtrend.
Optional loosened sensitivity allows for more frequent but still valid trades.
🚀 Momentum Timing
3. Smoothed CCI (ZLEMA / Hull / VWMA options)
Traditional CCI is enhanced with smoothing for stability.
Signals trades only when momentum is strong and accelerating.
Optional settings let users tune how responsive or smooth they want the CCI behavior to be.
🔒 Entry Filtering & Rejection Logic
4. Wick Trap Detection
Prevents entry during manipulated candles (e.g. stop hunts, wick traps).
Measures wick-to-body ratio against a minimum body size normalized by ATR.
Only trades when the candle shows a clean body and no manipulation.
5. Price Action Filters (Optional)
Long trades require price to break above previous high (or skip this with a toggle).
Short trades require price to break below previous low (or skip this with a toggle).
Ensures you're trading only when price structure confirms the breakout.
6. McGinley Alignment (Optional)
Price must be on the correct side of the McGinley line (above for longs, below for shorts).
Ensures that trades align with baseline trend, preventing early or fading entries.
📊 Volume Logic
7. Volume Spike Detection
Confirms that a real move is underway by requiring volume to exceed a moving average by a user-defined multiplier.
Uses SMA / EMA / VWMA for customizable behavior.
Optional relative volume mode compares volume against typical volume at that same time of day.
8. Volume Trend Filter
Compares fast vs. slow EMA of the volume spike ratio.
Ensures volume is not just spiking, but also increasing overall.
Prevents trades during volume exhaustion or fading participation.
9. Volume Strength Label
Classifies each bar’s volume as: Low, Average, High, or Very High
Shown in the dashboard for context before entries.
🎯 Entry Conditions
An entry occurs when all of the following align:
✅ Trend confirmed via gradient slope
✅ Momentum confirmed via smoothed CCI
✅ No wick trap pattern
✅ Price structure & McGinley alignment (if toggled on)
✅ Volume confirms participation
✅ 1-bar cooldown since last exit
💰 TP1 & TP2 Exit System
TP1 = 50% of position closed using a limit order at a % profit (e.g., 2%)
TP2 = remaining 50% closed at a second profit level (e.g., 4%)
These are set as limit orders at the time of entry and work even on backtest.
Alerts are sent separately for TP1 and TP2 to allow bot handling of staggered exits.
🧠 Trade Logic Controls
✅ process_orders_on_close=true ensures non-repainting behavior
✅ 1-bar cooldown after any exit prevents same-bar reversals
✅ Built-in canEnter condition ensures trades are separated and clean
✅ Alerts use customizable strings for entry/exit/TP1/TP2 — ready for webhook automation
