PolyFilter [BackQuant]PolyFilter
A flexible, low-lag trend filter with three smoothing engines—optimized for clean bias, fewer whipsaws, and clear alerting.
What it does
PolyFilter draws a single “intelligent” baseline that adapts to price while suppressing noise. You choose the engine— Fractional MA , Ehlers 2-Pole Super Smoother , or a Multi-Kernel blend . The line can color itself by slope (trend) or by position vs price (above/below), and you get four ready-made alerts for flips and crosses.
What it plots
PolyFilter line — your smoothed trend baseline (width set by “Line Width”).
Optional candle & background coloring — choose: color by trend slope or by whether price is above/below the filter.
Signal markers — Arrows with L/S when the slope flips or when price crosses the line (if you enable shapes/alerts).
How the three engines differ
Fractional MA (experimental) — A power-law weighting of past bars (heavier focus on the most recent samples without throwing away history). The Adaptation Speed acts like the “fraction” exponent (default 0.618). Lower values lean more on recent bars; higher values spread weight further back.
Ehlers 2-Pole Super Smoother — Classic low-lag IIR smoother that aggressively reduces high-frequency noise while preserving turns. Great default when you want a steady, responsive baseline with minimal parameter fuss.
Multi-Kernel — A 70/30 blend of a Gaussian window and an exponential kernel. The Gaussian contributes smooth structure; the exponential adds a hint of responsiveness. Useful for assets that oscillate but still trend.
Reading the colors
Trend mode (default) — Line & candles turn green while the filter is rising (signal > signal ) and red while it’s falling.
Above/Below mode — Line & candles reflect price’s position relative to the filter: green when price > filter, red when price < filter. This is handy if you treat the filter like a dynamic “fair value” or bias line.
Inputs you’ll actually use
Calculation Settings
Price Source — Default HLC/3. Switch to Close for stricter trend, or HLC3/HL2 to soften single-print spikes.
Filter Length — Window/period for all engines. Shorter = snappier turns; longer = smoother line.
Adaptation Speed — Only affects Fractional MA . Lower it for faster, more local weighting; raise it for smoother, more global weighting.
Filter Type — Pick one of: Fractional MA, Ehlers 2-Pole, Multi-Kernel.
UI & Plotting
Color based off… — Choose Trend (slope) or > or < Close (position vs price).
Long/Short Colors — Customize bull/bear hues to your theme.
Show Filter Line / Paint candles / Color background — Visual toggles for the line, bars, and backdrop.
Line Width — Make the filter stand out (2–3 works well on most charts).
Signals & Alerts
PolyFilter Trend Up — Slope flips upward (the filter crosses above its prior value). Good for early continuation entries or stop-tightening on shorts.
PolyFilter Trend Down — Slope flips downward. Often used to scale out longs or rotate bias.
PolyFilter Above Price — The filter line crosses up through price (filter > price). This can confirm that mean has “caught up” after a pullback.
PolyFilter Below Price — The filter line crosses down through price (filter < price). Useful to confirm momentum loss on bounces.
Quick starts (suggested presets)
Intraday (5–15m, crypto or indices) — Ehlers 2-Pole, Length 55–80. Trend coloring ON, candle paint ON. Look for pullbacks to a rising filter; avoid fading a falling one.
Swing (1H–4H) — Multi-Kernel, Length 80–120. Background color OFF (cleaner), candle paint ON. Add a higher-TF confirmation (e.g., 4H filter rising when you trade 1H).
Range-prone FX — Fractional MA, Length 70–100, Adaptation ~0.55–0.70. Consider Above/Below mode to trade mean reversion to the line with a strict risk cap.
How to use it in practice
Bias line — Trade in the direction of the filter slope; stand aside when it flattens and color chops back and forth.
Dynamic support/resistance — Treat the line as a moving value area. In trends, entries often appear on shallow tags of the line with structure confluence.
Regime switch — When the filter flips and holds color for several bars, tighten stops on the opposing side and look for first pullback in the new color.
Stacking filters — Many users run PolyFilter on the active chart and a slower instance (longer length) on a higher timeframe as a “macro bias” guardrail.
Tuning tips
If you see too many flips, lengthen the filter or switch to Multi-Kernel.
If turns feel late, shorten the filter or try Ehlers 2-Pole for lower lag.
On thin or very noisy symbols, prefer HLC3 as the source and longer lengths.
Performance note: very large lengths increase computation time for the Multi-Kernel and Fractional engines. Start moderate and scale up only if needed.
Summary
PolyFilter gives you a single, trustworthy baseline that you can read at a glance—either as a pure trend line (slope coloring) or as a dynamic “above/below fair value” reference. Pick the engine that matches your market’s personality, set a sensible length, and let the color and alerts guide bias, entries on pullbacks, and risk on reversals.

Structural Liquidity Signals [BullByte]Structural Liquidity Signals (SFP, FVG, BOS, AVWAP)
Short description
Detects liquidity sweeps (SFPs) at pivots and PD/W levels, highlights the latest FVG, tracks AVWAP stretch, arms percentile extremes, and triggers after confirmed micro BOS.
Full description
What this tool does
Structural Liquidity Signals shows where price likely tapped liquidity (stop clusters), then waits for structure to actually change before it prints a trigger. It spots:
Liquidity sweeps (SFPs) at recent pivots and at prior day/week highs/lows.
The latest Fair Value Gap (FVG) that often “pulls” price or serves as a reaction zone.
How far price is stretched from two VWAP anchors (one from the latest impulse, one from today’s session), scaled by ATR so it adapts to volatility.
A “percentile” extreme of an internal score. At extremes the script “arms” a setup; it only triggers after a small break of structure (BOS) on a closed bar.
Originality and design rationale, why it’s not “just a mashup”
This is not a mashup for its own sake. It’s a purpose-built flow that links where liquidity is likely to rest with how structure actually changes:
- Liquidity location: We focus on areas where stops commonly cluster—recent pivots and prior day/week highs/lows—then detect sweeps (SFPs) when price wicks beyond and closes back inside.
- Displacement context: We track the last Fair Value Gap (FVG) to account for recent inefficiency that often acts as a magnet or reaction zone.
- Stretch measurement: We anchor VWAP to the latest N-bar impulse and to the Daily session, then normalize stretch by ATR to assess dislocation consistently across assets/timeframes.
- Composite exhaustion: We combine stretch, wick skew, and volume surprise, then bend the result with a tanh transform so extremes are bounded and comparable.
- Dynamic extremes and discipline: Rather than triggering on every sweep, we “arm” at statistical extremes via percent-rank and only fire after a confirmed micro Break of Structure (BOS). This separates “interesting” from “actionable.”
Key concepts
SFP (liquidity sweep): A candle briefly trades beyond a level (where stops sit) and closes back inside. We detect these at:
Pivots (recent swing highs/lows confirmed by “left/right” bars).
Prior Day/Week High/Low (PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL).
FVG (Fair Value Gap): A small 3‑bar gap (bar2 high vs bar1 low, or vice versa). The latest gap often acts like a magnet or reaction zone. We track the most recent Up/Down gap and whether price is inside it.
AVWAP stretch: Distance from an Anchored VWAP divided by ATR (volatility). We use:
Impulse AVWAP: resets on each new N‑bar high/low.
Daily AVWAP: resets each new session.
PR (Percentile Rank): Where the current internal score sits versus its own recent history (0..100). We arm shorts at high PR, longs at low PR.
Micro BOS: A small break of the recent high (for longs) or low (for shorts). This is the “go/no‑go” confirmation.
How the parts work together
Find likely liquidity grabs (SFPs) at pivots and PD/W levels.
Add context from the latest FVG and AVWAP stretch (how far price is from “fair”).
Build a bounded score (so different markets/timeframes are comparable) and compute its percentile (PR).
Arm at extremes (high PR → short candidate; low PR → long candidate).
Only print a trigger after a micro BOS, on a closed bar, with spacing/cooldown rules.
What you see on the chart (legend)
Lines:
Teal line = Impulse AVWAP (resets on new N‑bar extreme).
Aqua line = Daily AVWAP (resets each session).
PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL = prior day/week levels (toggle on/off).
Zones:
Greenish box = latest Up FVG; Reddish box = latest Down FVG.
The shading/border changes after price trades back through it.
SFP labels:
SFP‑P = SFP at Pivot (dotted line marks that pivot’s price).
SFP‑L = SFP at Level (at PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL).
Throttle: To reduce clutter, SFPs are rate‑limited per direction.
Triggers:
Triangle up = long trigger after BOS; triangle down = short trigger after BOS.
Optional badge shows direction and PR at the moment of trigger.
Optional Trigger Zone is an ATR‑sized box around the trigger bar’s close (for visualization only).
Background:
Light green/red shading = a long/short setup is “armed” (not a trigger).
Dashboard (Mini/Pro) — what each item means
PR: Percentile of the internal score (0..100). Near 0 = bullish extreme, near 100 = bearish extreme.
Gauge: Text bar that mirrors PR.
State: Idle, Armed Long (with a countdown), or Armed Short.
Cooldown: Bars remaining before a new setup can arm after a trigger.
Bars Since / Last Px: How long since last trigger and its price.
FVG: Whether price is in the latest Up/Down FVG.
Imp/Day VWAP Dist, PD Dist(ATR): Distance from those references in ATR units.
ATR% (Gate), Trend(HTF): Status of optional regime filters (volatility/trend).
How to use it (step‑by‑step)
Keep the Safety toggles ON (default): triggers/visuals on bar‑close, optional confirmed HTF for trend slope.
Choose timeframe:
Intraday (5m–1h) or Swing (1h–4h). On very fast/thin charts, enable Performance mode and raise spacing/cooldown.
Watch the dashboard:
When PR reaches an extreme and an SFP context is present, the background shades (armed).
Wait for the trigger triangle:
It prints only after a micro BOS on a closed bar and after spacing/cooldown checks.
Use the Trigger Zone box as a visual reference only:
This script never tells you to buy/sell. Apply your own plan for entry, stop, and sizing.
Example:
Bullish: Sweep under PDL (SFP‑L) and reclaim; PR in lower tail arms long; BOS up confirms → long trigger on bar close (ATR-sized trigger zone shown).
Bearish: Sweep above PDH/pivot (SFP‑L/P) and reject; PR in upper tail arms short; BOS down confirms → short trigger on bar close (ATR-sized trigger zone shown).
Settings guide (with “when to adjust”)
Safety & Stability (defaults ON)
Confirm triggers at bar close, Draw visuals at bar close: Keep ON for clean, stable prints.
Use confirmed HTF values: Applies to HTF trend slope only; keeps it from changing until the HTF bar closes.
Performance mode: Turn ON if your chart is busy or laggy.
Core & Context
ATR Length: Bigger = smoother distances; smaller = more reactive.
Impulse AVWAP Anchor: Larger = fewer resets; smaller = resets more often.
Show Daily AVWAP: ON if you want session context.
Use last FVG in logic: ON to include FVG context in arming/score.
Show PDH/PDL/PWH/PWL: ON to see prior day/week levels that often attract sweeps.
Liquidity & Microstructure
Pivot Left/Right: Higher values = stronger/rarer pivots.
Min Wick Ratio (0..1): Higher = only more pronounced SFP wicks qualify.
BOS length: Larger = stricter BOS; smaller = quicker confirmations.
Signal persistence: Keeps SFP context alive for a few bars to avoid flicker.
Signal Gating
Percent‑Rank Lookback: Larger = more stable extremes; smaller = more reactive extremes.
Arm thresholds (qHi/qLo): Move closer to 0.5 to see more arms; move toward 0/1 to see fewer arms.
TTL, Cooldown, Min bars and Min ATR distance: Space out triggers so you’re not reacting to minor noise.
Regime Filters (optional)
ATR percentile gate: Only allow triggers when volatility is at/above a set percentile.
HTF trend gate: Only allow longs when the HTF slope is up (and shorts when it’s down), above a minimum slope.
Visuals & UX
Only show “important” SFPs: Filters pivot SFPs by Volume Z and |Impulse stretch|.
Trigger badges/history and Max badge count: Control label clutter.
Compact labels: Toggle SFP‑P/L vs full names.
Dashboard mode and position; Dark theme.
Reading PR (the built‑in “oscillator”)
PR ~ 0–10: Potential bullish extreme (long side can arm).
PR ~ 90–100: Potential bearish extreme (short side can arm).
Important: “Armed” ≠ “Enter.” A trigger still needs a micro BOS on a closed bar and spacing/cooldown to pass.
Repainting, confirmations, and HTF notes
By default, prints wait for the bar to close; this reduces repaint‑like effects.
Pivot SFPs only appear after the pivot confirms (after the chosen “right” bars).
PD/W levels come from the prior completed candles and do not change intraday.
If you enable confirmed HTF values, the HTF slope will not change until its higher‑timeframe bar completes (safer but slightly delayed).
Performance tips
If labels/zones clutter or the chart lags:
Turn ON Performance mode.
Hide FVG or the Trigger Zone.
Reduce badge history or turn badge history off.
If price scaling looks compressed:
Keep optional “score”/“PR” plots OFF (they overlay price and can affect scaling).
Alerts (neutral)
Structural Liquidity: LONG TRIGGER
Structural Liquidity: SHORT TRIGGER
These fire when a trigger condition is met on a confirmed bar (with defaults).
Limitations and risk
Not every sweep/extreme reverses; false triggers occur, especially on thin markets and low timeframes.
This indicator does not provide entries, exits, or position sizing—use your own plan and risk control.

MTF Levels [OmegaTools]📖 Introduction
The Ω Levels Indicator is a complete market structure and level-mapping framework designed to help traders identify key zones where price is likely to react.
It blends classic technical anchors (VWAP, pivots, means, standard deviations) with modern statistical pattern recognition to dynamically project areas of manipulation, extension, and equilibrium.
At its core, Ω Levels creates an evolving map of market balance vs. imbalance, showing traders where liquidity is most likely to build and where price could pivot or accelerate.
But what makes it truly unique is the Pivot Forecaster — an embedded predictive engine that applies machine-learning inspired logic to recognize conditions that historically precede market turning points.
🔎 Key Features
Customizable Levels Framework
Define up to three levels (manipulation, extensions, VWAP, pivots, stdev bands, or prior extremes).
Choose mean references such as Open, VWAP, Pivot Mean, or Previous Session Mean.
Style controls (solid, dotted, dashed) and fill modes (internal, external, ranges) allow you to adapt the chart to your visual workflow.
Dynamic Zone Highlighting
Automatic fills between internal/external levels, or between specific level pairs (1–2, 1–3, 2–3).
Makes it easy to visualize value areas, expansions, and compression zones at a glance.
Multi-Timeframe Anchoring
Works on any timeframe, but calculations can be anchored to a higher timeframe (e.g., show daily VWAP & pivots on a 15m chart).
This allows traders to align intraday execution with higher timeframe context.
Pivot Forecaster (Machine Learning / Pattern Recognition)
This is the advanced predictive component.
The algorithm collects historical conditions observed around pivot highs and lows (volume state, ATR state, % candle expansion, oscillator conditions).
It then builds statistical “profiles” of typical pivot behavior and compares them in real-time against current market conditions.
When conditions match the “signature” of a pivot, the indicator highlights a Forecast Pivot High or Forecast Pivot Low (displayed as small diamond markers).
This functions as a pattern-recognition system, effectively learning from past pivots to anticipate where the next turning point is more likely to occur.
⚡ How Traders Can Use It
Intraday Execution: Use VWAP, manipulation, and extension levels to frame trades around liquidity zones.
Swing Context: Overlay higher timeframe pivots and means to guide medium-term positioning.
Fade Setups: Forecasted pivots often coincide with exhaustion zones where fading momentum carries edge.
Breakout Validation: When price breaks a structural level but the forecaster does not confirm a pivot, continuation probability is higher.
Risk Management: Levels provide natural stop/target placements, while pivot forecasts serve as warning signals for potential reversals.
⚙️ Settings Overview
Timeframe: Choose the anchor timeframe for calculations (default: Daily).
Means: Two selectable mean references (Open, VWAP, Pivot Point, Previous Mean).
Levels: Three levels can be customized (Manipulation, Extension, 1–2 StDev, Pivot Point, VWAP, Previous Extremes).
Fill Modes: Highlight zones between internal/external levels or custom ranges.
Visual Customization: Colors, line styles, fill opacity, and toggle for old levels.
Pivot Forecaster: Fully automated — no settings required, it adapts to instrument and timeframe.
🧭 Best Practices
Align Levels With Market Profile: Treat the levels as dynamic S/R zones and watch how price interacts with them.
Use Forecaster as Confirmation: The diamonds are not standalone signals; they are context filters that help you decide whether a move has higher reversal odds.
Higher Timeframe Anchoring: On intraday charts, set the timeframe to Daily or Weekly to trade with institutional levels.
Combine With ATR: Pair with the Ω ATR Indicator to size positions according to volatility while Ω Levels provides the structural roadmap.
📌 Summary
The Ω Levels Indicator is more than a level plotter — it’s a market map + predictive engine.
By combining traditional levels with an intelligent pivot forecaster, it gives traders both the static structure of where price should react, and the dynamic signal of where it is likely to react next.
This dual-layer approach — structural + predictive — makes it an invaluable tool for discretionary intraday traders, swing traders, and anyone who wants to anticipate price behavior instead of just reacting to it.

Implied Volatility RangeThe Implied Volatility Range is a forward-looking tool that transforms option market data into probability ranges for future prices. Based on the lognormal distribution of asset prices assumed in modern option pricing models, it converts the implied volatility curve into a volatility cone with dynamic labels that show the market’s expectations for the price distribution at a specific point in time. At the selected future date, it displays projected price levels and their percentage change from today’s close across 1, 2, and 3 standard deviation (σ) ranges:
1σ range = ~68.2% probability the price will remain within this range.
2σ range = ~95.4% probability the price will remain within this range.
3σ range = ~99.7% probability the price will remain within this range.
What makes this indicator especially useful is its ability to incorporate implied volatility skew. When only ATM IV (%) is entered, the indicator displays the standard Black–Scholes lognormal distribution. By adding High IV (%) and Low IV (%) values tied to strikes above and below the current price, the indicator interpolates between these inputs to approximate the implied volatility skew. This adjustment produces a market-implied probability distribution that indicates whether the option market is leaning bullish or bearish, based on the data entered in the menu:
ATM IV (%) = Implied volatility at the current spot price (at-the-money).
High IV (%) = Implied volatility at a strike above the current spot price.
High Strike = Strike price corresponding to the High IV input (OTM call).
Low IV (%) = Implied volatility at a strike below the current spot price.
Low Strike = Strike price corresponding to the Low IV input (OTM put).
Expiration (Day, Month, Year) = Option expiration date for the projection.
Once these inputs are entered, the indicator calculates implied probability ranges and, if both High IV and Low IV values are provided, adjusts for skew to approximate the option market’s distribution. If no implied volatility data is supplied, the indicator defaults to a lognormal distribution based on historical volatility, using past realized volatility over the same forward horizon. This keeps the tool functional even without implied volatility inputs, though in that case the output represents only an approximation of ATM IV, not the actual market view.
In summary, the Implied Volatility Range is a powerful tool that translates implied volatility inputs into a clear and practical estimate of the market’s expectations for future prices. It allows traders to visualize the probability of price ranges while also highlighting directional bias, a dimension often difficult to interpret from traditional implied volatility charts. It should be emphasized, however, that this tool reflects only the market’s expectations at a specific point in time, which may change as new information and trading activity reshape implied volatility.
Omega ATR Indicator📖 Introduction
The Ω ATR Indicator was created to provide a more complete and professional framework for volatility analysis than the classic Average True Range (ATR).
While the traditional ATR is a useful tool, it has limitations: it delivers a simple rolling average of volatility, but it does not adapt to market regimes, it does not highlight extreme events, and it often leaves the trader with incomplete information about risk.
The Ω ATR takes the same foundation and elevates it into a multi-dimensional volatility dashboard, adding statistical layers, adaptive calculations, and clear visual references that allow traders to interpret volatility in a way that is immediately actionable.
🔎 What makes it different from a standard ATR?
This indicator introduces several features beyond the classic formula:
True Range Core – plots the raw True Range (TR) for each bar, providing a direct, bar-by-bar view of volatility impulses.
Standard & Adjusted ATR – includes both the conventional ATR (smoothed average) and an Adjusted ATR that automatically corrects for extreme conditions by incorporating percentile rescaling.
Percentile Volatility Levels – dynamically calculated extreme thresholds (99.8%, 75%, 50%, 25%), plotted as dotted levels across the chart. These act as reference lines for “normal” vs. “abnormal” volatility, useful for spotting unusual price expansions or contractions.
Linear Regression Volatility Trend – overlays a regression line of volatility, showing whether the market is moving toward expansion (rising vol), contraction (falling vol), or stability.
Monetary Value Translation – the indicator converts volatility into points, ticks, and dollar values (based on the instrument’s point value). This allows futures traders and high-value instruments users to immediately see how much volatility is “worth” in cash terms.
Interactive Table Display – a real-time statistics table is displayed directly on the chart, showing:
SMA of ATR in $ and points
Percentile-based volatility range (VAR) in $ and points
Tick equivalences, for quick position sizing
⚡ How traders can use it
The Ω ATR Indicator is designed to be versatile, fitting both discretionary traders and systematic strategy developers.
Risk Management: ATR-based stop losses and position sizing are significantly improved by using the adjusted ATR and percentile thresholds. Traders can size their positions according to volatility regimes, not just raw averages.
Breakout & Exhaustion Detection: When TR or ATR values spike above the 99.8% or 95% percentile levels, this often corresponds to breakout conditions or volatility exhaustion — useful for breakout strategies, mean-reversion setups, and volatility fades.
Market Regime Identification: The regression line helps distinguish if volatility is rising (trending environment, larger swings expected) or compressing (range-bound environment, lower risk opportunities).
Multi-Asset Flexibility: Works equally well on equities, futures, crypto, and FX. Its point/tick/dollar conversion makes it especially powerful for futures traders who need to quantify risk precisely.
Scalping to Swing Trading: On lower timeframes, it acts as a micro-volatility detector; on higher timeframes, it functions as a strategic risk gauge for position management.
⚙️ Settings and Customization
Length: The ATR lookback period (default = 34).
Shorter lengths (14–21) for intraday traders who want fast response.
Longer lengths (34–55) for swing/position traders who want smoother readings.
AVG / ADJ AVG: Toggle to display the standard ATR or the adjusted ATR.
Volatility Levels: Enable/disable up to 4 percentile-based levels (1st = 25%, 2nd = 50%, 3rd = 75%, 4th = 99.8%). Recommended: keep 3 levels active for clarity.
Color Controls: All plots and levels are fully customizable to match your chart style.
Table Display: Positioned on the chart (default: middle-right) with key values updated in real time.
🧭 Best Practices for Use
Combine with Trend Tools: Volatility readings are most powerful when combined with trend filters or volume analysis. For example, a breakout with both high volatility and trend confirmation is stronger than either alone.
ATR Stops: Use the Adjusted ATR rather than the standard one when trailing stops in highly volatile instruments like crypto or Nasdaq futures, as it adapts to outlier spikes.
Dollar Risk Translation: Use the dollar-value outputs to predefine maximum acceptable risk per trade (e.g., “I only risk $250 per position”). This bridges volatility to portfolio risk management.
Event Monitoring: Around economic events or earnings, expect volatility spikes above higher percentile levels. The indicator makes these moves instantly visible.
📌 Summary
The Ω ATR Indicator is not just “another ATR.” It is a comprehensive volatility framework that transforms volatility from a simple statistic into an actionable trading signal.
By combining:
the classic ATR,
an adjusted ATR,
percentile extremes,
regression-based volatility trends,
and real-time dollar conversions,
…this tool allows traders to precisely understand, visualize, and act on volatility in ways that a standard ATR simply cannot provide.
Whether you are scalping intraday moves, swing trading equities, or managing futures positions, the Ω ATR equips you with a professional-grade volatility dashboard that clarifies risk, highlights opportunity, and adapts across all markets and timeframes.
👉 Designed and developed by OmegaTools for traders who demand precision, clarity, and adaptability in their volatility analysis.

Sentinel Nexus Dashboard [AGP] Ver.1.5Sentinel Nexus Dashboard is a versatile Pine Script designed as a comprehensive technical analysis tool. It condenses a variety of key indicators and metrics into a single, intuitive visual dashboard, providing an integrated view of market trends, momentum, volatility, and liquidity, all neatly organized on your TradingView chart.
Key Features and Benefits
All-in-One Dashboard: This script centralizes relevant information, offering a clean, efficient control panel that helps you make quick decisions without cluttering your chart with multiple overlays.
Trend Analysis with ADX: It incorporates the Average Directional Index (ADX) to measure trend strength. The dashboard displays ADX, DI+, and DI- values with dynamic color-coding to highlight trend intensity (e.g., blue for a very strong trend).
Momentum Analysis with MACD: The dashboard shows MACD line and signal line values in a table. The background color of the MACD values reflects the histogram's direction, allowing you to quickly identify crosses and shifts in market momentum.
Multi-Timeframe RSI Analysis: The RSI (Relative Strength Index) dashboard displays values across multiple timeframes (from 1 minute to 1 month). Overbought (77) and oversold (23) levels are color-coded for immediate identification of market conditions, making it an ideal tool for multi-timeframe analysis.
Smart and Dynamic Volume: The script uses a bar coloring algorithm based on average volume. Chart bars change color according to volume magnitude (extreme, high, average, or low) relative to the average, distinguishing between bullish and bearish bars. This helps you identify significant, liquidity-driven price movements.
Fair Value Analysis: The script calculates an asset's "fair value" using a noise filter (similar to a Kalman filter) on recent highs and lows to determine a midpoint. The price dashboard's background color changes to indicate if the current price is above or below this fair value.
Fibonacci EMA Analysis: A table displays several Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) based on the Fibonacci sequence. The values are color-coded to show whether the current price is above (white) or below (orange) each EMA, helping you quickly identify dynamic support and resistance levels.
CME Futures Data Integration: For Bitcoin, the script can show a chart label with the Bitcoin futures price (CME:BTC1!), allowing you to compare the spot price with the CME futures market.
Potential Uses and Applications
The Sentinel Nexus Dashboard is an excellent support tool for trading. It is not a signal system but rather a suite of confirmation tools that can be used to:
Confirm Trend Strength: Before entering a trade, use the ADX data to ensure the trend has enough strength for your expected move.
Detect Reversal Points: Multi-timeframe RSI data can alert you to potential overbought or oversold conditions, indicating possible exhaustion of a price move.
Validate Price Movements: Bar coloring based on volume helps you determine if a price move is genuine and supported by strong market participation. High volume can confirm a breakout or reversal.
Identify Support and Resistance: The Fibonacci EMAs allow you to quickly visualize key levels where price might find support or resistance, aiding in planning entries and exits.
In short, this script is perfect for traders who want a comprehensive market overview without chart clutter. It efficiently integrates trend, momentum, and volume analysis in one place.

IV Rank (tasty-style) — VIXFix / HV ProxyIV Rank (tasty-style) — VIXFix / HV Proxy
Overview
This indicator replicates tastytrade’s IV Rank calculation—but built entirely inside TradingView.
Because TradingView does not expose live option-chain implied volatility, the script lets you choose between two widely used price-based IV proxies:
VIXFix (Williams VIX Fix): a fast-reacting volatility estimate derived from price extremes.
HV(30): 30-day annualized historical volatility of daily log returns.
The goal is to approximate the “rich vs. cheap” option volatility environment that traders use to decide whether to sell or buy premium.
Formula
IV Rank answers the question: Where is current implied volatility relative to its own 1-year range?

IVcurrent: Current value of the chosen IV proxy.
IV1yHigh/Low: Highest and lowest proxy values over the user-defined lookback (default 252 trading days ≈ 1 year).
IVR = 0 → Current IV equals its 1-year low
IVR = 100 → Current IV equals its 1-year high
IVR ≈ 50 → Current IV sits mid-range
How to Use
High IV Rank (≥50–60%)
Options are relatively expensive → short-premium strategies (credit spreads, iron condors, straddles) may be more attractive.
Low IV Rank (≤20%)
Options are relatively cheap → long-premium strategies (debit spreads, calendars, diagonals) may offer better risk/reward.
Combine with your own analysis, liquidity checks, and risk management.
Inputs & Customization
IV Source: Choose “VIXFix” or “HV(30)” as the volatility proxy.
IVR Lookback: Rolling window for 1-year high/low (default 252 trading days).
VIXFix Parameters: Length and stdev multiplier to fine-tune sensitivity.
Info Label: Optional on-chart label displays current IV proxy, 1-year high/low, and IV Rank.
Alerts: Optional alerts when IVR crosses 50, falls below 20, or rises above 80.
Notes & Limitations
This indicator does not pull real option-chain IV.
It provides a close structural analogue to tastytrade’s IV Rank using price-derived proxies for markets where options data is not directly available.
For live option IV, use broker platforms or third-party data feeds alongside this script.

Options Straddle Strategy Backtester 140% APR for 2025This script provides the most convenient manual tool for backtesting a straddle stagy in options.
The straddle is when you buy a call and a put option at the same price and the expiration date. You profit when the price movement at expiry (8 am UTC) in either directions surpass the price of the premium paid. The price of opening this straddle on ETH is always 1.6% of the current ETH price including fees.
In my example I use ETH options, I am buying a straddle at 8:30 UTC every day with the next day expiration date. In the script it looks like I am opening a long position on ETH at 8:30 and then close it the next days. We need to use 1 minute chart, chart time set to UTC for exact results and deep back testing function to go back in time.
Once the system generates a trade report - we need to download it and go to the list of trades sections, there we do the following:
1) remove all long entry lines leaving only long exit lines that have all the information we need.
2) We add one column that calculates the cost of premium for every trade: Position size*1.6%=cost of premium with fees.
3)We add a second column copying all Net PNL in USDT changing negative amounts to positive - since it doesn't matter for us which direction the move was towards.
The results are quite impressive: If you were buying straddles during 2025 that is not ended yet you will get 69% return on investment (11K paid in premiums, 19K return, 8K net profit). 2024 and 2025 combined: 53% (29 K, 45 K, and 15 profits).
Moreover, since you have the date of the trade in the table you can filter the results further to figure out if trading on some days is less profitable. Interestingly trades from Sun to Mon given are not profitable at -15% and most profitable days are Mon to Tue - 103%, Friday to Sat - 102 %. So if we remove Sun to Monday trades we will be at 89% for the first 221 days of the year or 140% APR.

Flat Breakout Detector🔹 English Description
Flat Breakout Detector is a tool designed to highlight the most interesting moments when the market shifts from quiet, sideways trading into active movement.
Most of the time (about 80%), the price stays in flat ranges, where trading is often inconvenient or unprofitable. The most valuable opportunities usually appear when the price leaves the flat zone and initiates a new move. These breakouts are easy to miss if you monitor the market manually — but this indicator helps you avoid that.
The indicator detects relatively volatile or impulsive candles compared to the previous ones. Such moves may suggest the start of a new trend, a shift in market behavior, or the appearance of an initiating side. Whenever volatility increases and price begins to deviate strongly, the indicator highlights these breakout moments. The higher the standard deviation, the higher the probability that a meaningful move is underway.
🔎 Tip: Watch carefully when the reading passes the third standard deviation — these are the most significant breakouts.
⚠️ Disclaimer: This indicator is not a direct buy/sell signal. It only shows moments of increased volatility and possible breakout conditions. Use it as a scanner to catch breakout opportunities, and then perform your own technical and volume analysis before deciding to trade.
🔹 Русское описание
Flat Breakout Detector — это инструмент, который подсвечивает самые интересные моменты перехода рынка из состояния спокойного бокового движения к активному тренду.
В среднем около 80% времени цена находится во флете, и торговать в такие периоды не всегда удобно или выгодно. Наиболее сильные возможности появляются в моменты выхода из флета, но их легко пропустить при ручном наблюдении. Данный индикатор позволяет этого избежать.
Индикатор находит относительно волатильные или импульсные свечи по сравнению с предыдущими. Подобные свечи могут указывать на начало нового тренда, изменение рыночной структуры или появление активной стороны (покупателей или продавцов). Когда цена становится более волатильной и проходит значительные отклонения, индикатор подсвечивает эти моменты. Чем выше стандартное отклонение, тем выше вероятность, что начинается серьёзное движение.
🔎 Рекомендация: особенно обращайте внимание на выход за третье стандартное отклонение — именно там часто начинаются ключевые пробои.
⚠️ Дисклеймер: данный индикатор не является прямым сигналом для входа или выхода из сделки. Он лишь указывает на моменты повышенной волатильности и возможного выхода из флета. Используйте его как сканер для поиска ситуаций и применяйте собственный технический и объёмный анализ, прежде чем принимать торговое решение.
Rapid bp-meter(2Y) MTF V2.0US 2Y Yield — Basis-Point Meter (30s Fast + 1m Confirm)
What it does (one-liner):
A simple, fast basis-point (bp) meter for the US 2-Year Treasury yield that shows a 30-second “pre-trigger” and a 1-minute confirmation so you can quickly gauge risk-on / risk-off during news and FOMC events.
Overview
This tool tracks the change in the US 2-Year yield in basis points (1 bp = 0.01%). It displays two readings:
Fast: 30-second bp change (early signal).
Confirm: 1-minute bp change (confirmation).
Color logic is intentionally simple:
Green = yields down beyond your threshold (typical risk-on bias).
Red = yields up beyond your threshold (typical risk-off bias).
Gray = within thresholds (no signal).
Typical interpretation (not a signal service):
Yields ↓ (green) often align with USD weakness / risk-on (e.g., EURUSD↑, XAUUSD↑, NQ100↑, USDJPY↓).
Yields ↑ (red) often align with USD strength / risk-off (e.g., EURUSD↓, XAUUSD↓, NQ100↓, USDJPY↑).
Works on any chart. The yield is fetched from your chosen symbol/timeframes via request.security, independent of the chart timeframe.
Inputs
Yield symbol: default TVC:US02Y.
(Alternative proxy if seconds TF not available: 2-yr futures CBOT:ZT1!—note futures price ↑ = yield ↓.)
Fast timeframe: default 30S. (Use 1m if your plan/symbol doesn’t support seconds.)
Confirm timeframe: default 1 (1-minute).
Fast trigger (bp): default 2.0 bp.
Confirm trigger (bp): default 5.0 bp.
No-repaint mode: uses completed bars only. Turn off if you want intrabar responsiveness (may repaint).
Panel position: choose where the table appears on your chart.
What the table shows
2Y Δ fast (30S): e.g., −2.4 bp (green)
2Y Δ conf (1): e.g., −6.1 bp (green)
Rule of thumb
Both GREEN → risk-on bias likely (consider EURUSD/XAU/NQ long, USDJPY short).
Both RED → risk-off bias likely (consider the inverse).
Mixed → wait for alignment or price structure confirmation.
How to use (step-by-step)
Add to any chart.
Set Yield symbol to TVC:US02Y. If seconds aren’t available, keep Fast=1m and Confirm=3m (or use ZT1! as a fast proxy + US02Y confirm).
Choose Fast/Confirm thresholds. Defaults (2 bp / 5 bp) are conservative for major news (CPI/NFP/FOMC).
During events, wait for the first 1–3 minutes to pass; then act only if both readings agree and price gives a clean impulse → pullback → continuation.
Risk: size down on news; use a fixed $ risk per trade; place stops beyond the impulse origin.
Optional: enable the built-in alerts (const messages) for Fast up/down and Confirm up/down.
Alerts (included)
Fast down (pre-trigger) – “US 2Y down ≥ fast threshold → risk-on (pre-trigger)”
Fast up (pre-trigger) – “US 2Y up ≥ fast threshold → risk-off (pre-trigger)”
Confirm down (confirmed) – “US 2Y down ≥ confirm threshold → risk-on (confirmed)”
Confirm up (confirmed) – “US 2Y up ≥ confirm threshold → risk-off (confirmed)”
Tip: You can customize alert text in TradingView’s alert dialog if you want to include thresholds or tickers.
Best practices & notes
Seconds data requires the appropriate plan and symbol support. If seconds aren’t supported for US02Y, use 1m/3m or combine ZT1! (futures) for “fast” with US02Y for confirm.
No-repaint mode is recommended; turning it off will read intrabar values that can change by bar close.
The meter is directional context, not an entry by itself—combine with levels (NY H/L, VWAP, H1 S/R).
On some sessions, headline vs. core news or Powell Q&A may cause second-leg reversals; confirm with price action.
Limitations (transparent)
This tool does not predict future yields; it only reads the recent bp change on your selected timeframes.
Correlations vary; yield moves don’t always translate into the same magnitude on FX/indices/commodities.
If your broker or symbol has delays or limited intraday history, readings may differ.
Futures proxy (ZT1!) is inversely related to yield; interpretation must be inverted if you use it for the fast leg.
What “inverse to yield” means
When yields fall, bond prices rise.
TVC:US02Y = the yield itself.
CBOT:ZT1! = the price of the 2-yr note futures.
So:
US02Y ↓ (−bp) ⇢ ZT1! ↑ (price up)
US02Y ↑ (+bp) ⇢ ZT1! ↓ (price down)
That’s the “inverse” part: yield and futures price move in opposite directions.

Gabriel's Squeeze Momentum📊 Gabriel’s Squeeze Momentum — Deluxe Volatility + Momentum Suite
An advanced, all-in-one squeeze & momentum framework that times volatility compression/expansion and trend shifts, with optional CVD (cumulative volume delta) momentum, ATR zone context, Discontinued Signal Lines (DSL) scalps, Colored DMI trend label, Williams VIX Fix (WVF) low-volatility exhaustion pings, Buff’s VTTI/VPCI volume confirmation, and real-time divergence detection.
What it does:
Discover Squeezes. They occur when volatility contracts, often preceding significant price moves.
Measures momentum with a fast, ATR-normalized linear regression—optionally on Price or CVD—so you see direction and “how hard it’s pushing.”
🧭 Signal Legend ~ Colors the squeeze so you instantly know regime:
🟡 / 🟣 (Tight/Very Tight): Coiled spring; prepare a plan.
🔴 / ⚫ = (Regular/Wide): Watch for Divergences between Price and Momentum.
🟢 (Fired): Expansion started; trade with momentum cross and bias.
Adds context bands at ±1/±2/±3 ATR (“trend / expansion / OB-OS”) to filter late or weak signals.
DSL (Discontinued Signal Lines) give early scalp flips on momentum vs. adaptive bands.
DMI label & triangles communicate trend strength and whether +DI / −DI is in control.
Williams VIX Fix flags capitulation/exhaustion style spikes (with optional VIX proxy).
VTTI/VPCI modules confirm when volume aligns with price trend or contradicts it.
Divergences (regular & hidden) auto-draw with optional live (may repaint) or on-close.
🎢 Squeeze Momentum — How the Logic Works 🎢
The Squeeze Momentum model is built on the principle of volatility compression and expansion. In markets, periods of low volatility are often followed by explosive moves, while high volatility eventually contracts. The “squeeze” seeks to identify these compression phases and prepare traders for the likely expansion that follows.
This indicator achieves that by comparing Bollinger Bands (BB) to Keltner Channels (KC).
Bands: Bollinger vs. Keltner
Bollinger Bands (BB): Calculated using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of price and standard deviations (σ) of the closing price. The bands expand and contract depending on volatility.
Keltner Channels (KC): Built from an SMA plus/minus multiples of the Average True Range (ATR). Unlike some simplified squeeze indicators that approximate ATR, this implementation uses a true ATR-based KC, ensuring accuracy across different assets and timeframes.
By comparing whether the Bollinger Bands are inside or outside the Keltner Channels, the indicator identifies different squeeze regimes, each representing a distinct volatility environment.
📦 Regime Colors
The squeeze states are color-coded for quick interpretation:
🔹Wide Squeeze (⚫): BB inside KC with a high ATR multiplier. Extremely low volatility, often before major expansion.
🔹Normal Squeeze (🔴): BB inside KC with a moderate ATR multiplier (about 25% more sensitive than Wide). Typical compression setting.
🔹Narrow Squeeze (🟡): BB inside KC with a lower ATR multiplier (about 50% more sensitive than Wide). Signals tighter compression.
🔹Very Narrow Squeeze (🟣): BB inside KC with the lowest ATR multiplier (100% more sensitive than Wide). Indicates extreme coiling.
🔹Fired Squeeze (🟢): BB break outside KC. Marks the release of volatility and potential trend acceleration.
This multi-layered system improves upon classical SQZPRO by using precisely calculated Keltner Channels and multiple sensitivity levels, giving traders more granular information about volatility states.
🔒 Multi-Timeframe Support
The indicator automatically adjusts squeeze thresholds for different timeframes — hourly, 4-hour, daily, weekly, and monthly charts. Each regime has been manually tuned for its timeframe, allowing traders to use the same tool whether scalping, swing trading, or holding longer-term positions.
🎯 Momentum Core
Detecting a squeeze is only half the equation — the indicator also includes a momentum engine to determine direction and strength.
Price momentum is measured as the distance of Close from its Highest High and Lowest Low range, smoothed with a Simple Moving Average, and refined with Linear Regression.
This value is then divided by ATR, normalizing momentum relative to volatility.
Optionally, CVD Mode (Cumulative Volume Delta ÷ Volume) can replace price momentum for assets where order-flow and volume dynamics dominate (e.g., crypto).
🦆 Signal Line
Momentum is paired with a Simple Moving Average signal line:
🔹Bullish: Momentum > Signal.
🔹Bearish: Momentum < Signal.
This crossover logic provides directional bias and filters for false squeezes.
🚀 When to Use Price vs. CVD
CVD Mode (Crypto, FX with tick volume): Best for assets with strong volume/order-flow signals.
Price Mode (Equities, Commodities, Higher TFs): Best for assets with irregular or thin volume data.
🛢️ATR Zones (context filter) 🛢️
Its design is straightforward yet effective: it measures the difference between the current price from its highest highs, lowest lows, and a moving average over a chosen period, then expresses that difference in terms of the Average True Range (ATR) over the same period. By normalizing price deviations against volatility, ATR provides a clear sense of how far and how fast price is moving relative to its “normal” range.
Interpreting the Zone
Positive Values: When it is above zero, price is trading above its HH, LL, and moving average, suggesting bullish momentum. The higher the value, the stronger the momentum relative to volatility.
Negative Values: When the Momentum is below zero, price is trading below its HH, LL, and moving average, signaling bearish momentum. The deeper the reading, the stronger the downside pressure.
Magnitude Matters: Because the Momentum is expressed in ATR units, traders can immediately gauge whether the move is small (less than 1 ATR), moderate (1–2 ATRs), or extreme (3+ ATRs). This makes it especially useful for assessing overbought or oversold conditions in a normalized way.
Strengths:
🔹Volatility-Normalized: Unlike simple squeeze momentum oscillators that have different OB/OS levels, this Momentum adjusts for volatility. This makes signals more consistent across assets with different volatility profiles.
🔹Simplicity:
±1 ATR: trending zone (bulls above +1, bears below −1)
±2 ATR: expansion (keep, add, or trail). Stretch/risk of mean reversion.
±3 ATR: potential exhaustion/mean-revert zone.
🔹Momentum Clarity: By framing momentum in ATR terms, it is easier to distinguish between a small deviation from trend and a genuinely significant move. Sometimes it is a good sign that it trend to ±3/2 ATR, looks for similar directional moves.
Color: The script shades +2/+3 (OB) and −2/−3 (OS) areas and provides swing alerts at ±1 ATR.
💚 What Are Discontinued Signal Lines (DSL)? 💚
In technical analysis, one of the most common tools for smoothing out noisy data is the signal line. This concept appears in many indicators, such as the MACD or stochastic oscillator, where the raw value of an indicator is compared to a smoothed version of itself. The signal line acts as a lagging filter, making it easier to identify shifts in momentum, crossovers, and directional changes.
While useful, the classic signal line approach has limitations. By design, a single smoothed line introduces lag, which means traders may receive signals later than ideal. Additionally, a one-size-fits-all smoothing process often struggles to adapt to different levels of volatility or rapidly changing market conditions.
This is where Discontinued Signal Lines (DSL) come in. DSL is an advanced extension of the traditional signal line concept. Instead of relying on just one smoothed comparison, DSL employs multiple adaptive lines that adjust dynamically to the current state of the indicator. These adaptive lines effectively “discontinue” the dependence on a single, fixed smoothing method, producing a more flexible and nuanced representation of market conditions.
How DSL Works?
Traditional Signal Line: Compares an the Momentum against its own moving average. Provides crossover signals when the raw indicator value moves above or below the smoothed line.
Strength: reduces noise. Weakness: delayed signals and limited adaptability.
DSL Extension: Uses multiple adaptive lines that respond differently to the indicator’s current behavior. Instead of one static moving average, the DSL approach creates faster and slower “reaction lines.” These lines adapt dynamically, capturing acceleration or deceleration in the indicator’s state.
Result: Traders see how momentum is evolving across multiple adaptive thresholds. This reduces false signals and improves responsiveness in volatile conditions.
Benefits of Discontinued Signal Lines
🔹Nuanced Trend Detection
DSL doesn’t just flag when momentum changes direction—it shows the quality of that shift, highlighting whether it is gaining strength, losing steam, or consolidating.
🔹Adaptability Across Markets
Because DSL adjusts to the Momentum’s own dynamics, it works well across different asset classes and timeframes, from equities and futures to forex and crypto.
🔹Earlier Signal Recognition
Multiple adaptive lines allow traders to spot developing trends earlier than with a single smoothed signal line, without being overwhelmed by raw indicator noise.
🔹Better Confirmation
DSL is particularly useful for confirmation. If both adaptive lines agree then a fill is applied in the direction, confidence in the trend is higher as the color turns bull/bear.
🔹Practical Uses
Momentum Trading: Spot acceleration or deceleration in trend strength.
Trend Confirmation: Verify whether a breakout has momentum behind it.
Noise Filtering: Smooth out erratic moves while retaining adaptability.
⚖️ Colored Directional Movement Index (CDMI) ⚖️
The Directional Movement Index (DMI), created by J. Welles Wilder, is one of the most respected trend-following indicators in technical analysis. It is actually a family of three separate indicators combined into one: the +DI (Positive Directional Indicator), the –DI (Negative Directional Indicator), and the ADX (Average Directional Index). Together, they measure not only whether the market is trending but also the strength of that trend. Traders have used the DMI for decades to identify trend direction, gauge momentum, and filter out periods of market noise.
However, despite its reliability, the traditional DMI can be challenging to interpret. Reading three separate lines at once and extracting meaningful signals requires both experience and careful observation. This complexity often discourages newer traders from fully utilizing its power.
The Colored Directional Movement Index (CDMI) is a modern reinterpretation of Wilder’s classic tool. It condenses the same information into a single visual line while using color, shape, and density to communicate what’s happening beneath the surface. The goal is simple: make the DMI’s insights faster to read, easier to act upon, and more intuitive to integrate into trading decisions.
Key Features of CDMI
🔹Color Scale for Trend Strength
The main triangle changes its base color depending on the strength of the DI reading. Dark Red or Green, colors correspond to stronger trends, while faded Gray or lighter yellow tones signal weaker or fading trends. This makes it visually clear when the market is consolidating versus trending strongly.
🔹Color Density for Momentum
Beyond strength, the CDMI uses color density to represent momentum in the trend’s strength. If the ADX is rising (trend gaining momentum), the triangles grows more darker. If the ADX is falling (trend losing momentum), the triangle becomes paler. This provides an instant sense of whether a trend is accelerating or decelerating.
🔹Directional Triangles for Trend Direction
To replace the separate +DI and –DI lines, the CDMI plots small triangle shapes along the bottom axis. An upward-facing triangle indicates that +DI is dominant, confirming bullish direction. A downward-facing triangle signals –DI dominance, confirming bearish direction. This way, both strength and direction are shown without the clutter of multiple overlapping lines.
🔹Label Display for Detailed Values
For traders who want precise data alongside the visuals, CDMI includes a label that shows:
Current trend strength (ADX value).
Current +DI and –DI values.
Momentum status of the ADX (rising or falling).
Historical values of DMI readings, so traders can track how the indicator has evolved over time.
Tooltips are also available to explain “How to read the colored DMI line”, making this version more beginner-friendly.
Why CDMI Matters
The CDMI retains the proven reliability of Wilder’s DMI while solving its biggest drawback—interpretation difficulty. Instead of juggling three separate plots, traders get a single, information-rich line supplemented with intuitive shapes and labels. This streamlined format makes trend verification, momentum analysis, and signal confirmation much faster.
For trading applications, the CDMI can help:
Confirm Entries by showing whether the market is trending strongly enough to justify a position.
Avoid False Signals by filtering out periods of low ADX (weak trend).
Enhance Timing by tracking momentum shifts in trend strength.
By simplifying the complexity of the original DMI into an elegant, color-coded tool, the CDMI makes one of technical analysis’ most advanced indicators practical for everyday use.

The VIX, formally known as the CBOE Volatility Index, has long been considered one of the most reliable indicators for spotting major market bottoms. Often referred to as the “fear gauge,” it measures the market’s expectation of volatility in the S&P 500 over the next 30 days. When fear grips investors and volatility spikes, the VIX rises sharply. Historically, these moments of extreme fear often coincide with powerful buying opportunities, as markets have a tendency to rebound once panic selling exhausts itself.
Larry Williams, a well-known trader and author, developed the Williams Vix Fix as a way to replicate the insights of the VIX across any tradable asset. While the VIX itself is tied specifically to S&P 500 options, Williams wanted a tool that could capture similar panic-driven dynamics in stocks, futures, forex, and other markets where the VIX is not directly applicable. His “fix” uses price action and volatility formulas to approximate the same emotional extremes reflected in the official VIX, creating almost identical results in practice. This makes the Williams Vix Fix a powerful addition to the trader’s toolbox, allowing the same principle that works on U.S. equities to be applied universally.
One of the most important characteristics of both the VIX and the Williams Vix Fix is that they are far more reliable at signaling market bottoms than market tops. The reason is psychological as much as it is mathematical. At market bottoms, fear and panic are widespread. Retail investors often capitulate, selling in a frenzy as prices drop. This panic drives volatility higher, producing the spikes we see in the VIX. At the same time, professional traders and institutions—those with larger capital and more disciplined strategies—tend to step in when volatility is stretched. They buy when others are fearful, using the panic of retail investors as an opportunity to acquire assets at discounted prices. This confluence of retail panic and institutional buying power is what makes the VIX such a strong bottom-finding tool.
In contrast, at market tops, the dynamic is very different. Tops tend not to be marked by panic or fear. Instead, they form quietly as enthusiasm fades, liquidity dries up, and buying interest wanes. Investors are often complacent, assuming prices will continue to rise, while professional money begins distributing their positions. Because there is no surge in fear, volatility remains muted, and the VIX does not offer a clear warning. This is why traders who rely on the VIX or the Williams Vix Fix must understand its limitations: it is exceptional for detecting bottoms but less useful for anticipating tops.
For traders, the lesson is straightforward. When you see the VIX or Williams Vix Fix spiking to extreme levels, it often indicates a high-probability environment for a rebound. These tools should not be used in isolation, but when combined with support levels, sentiment indicators, and market breadth, they can provide some of the most reliable bottom-fishing signals available. While no indicator is perfect, few have stood the test of time as consistently as the VIX—and thanks to Williams’ adaptation, its power can now be applied to nearly every market.
Indicator Signals (Great in risk-off charts):
🔹Flags spike events (tops/bottoms) with both original and filtered (AE/FE) criteria.
🔹Great as a risk overlay: tighten stops into AE/FE, or require “no spike” to enter.
🤯 Volume Comfirmation: VTTI & VPCI (Buff Dormeier) 🤯
Volume Trend Technical Indicator (VTTI)
The Volume Trend Technical Indicator (VTTI) is a momentum-style tool that analyzes how volume trends interact with price movement. Unlike basic volume measures that simply report how many shares or contracts were traded, the VTTI evaluates whether volume is expanding or contracting in the same direction as the prevailing price trend. The underlying logic is that healthy trends are supported by rising volume, while weakening trends often occur on shrinking volume.
At its core, VTTI looks at the rate of change in volume compared to price movements. By smoothing and normalizing these relationships, the indicator helps traders determine whether momentum is accelerating, decelerating, or diverging.
Rising VTTI: Suggests that volume is confirming the current price trend, strengthening the case for continuation. Flips BG Green after crossing it's signal.
Falling VTTI: Indicates that the trend may be losing participation, often a sign of possible consolidation or reversal. Flips BG Red after crossing it's signal.
Traders often use VTTI to filter entries and exits. For example, if price breaks out but VTTI does not rise above zero, the breakout may lack conviction. On the other hand, when both price and VTTI are aligned, probability of continuation improves.
Volume Price Confirmation Indicator (VPCI)
The Volume Price Confirmation Indicator (VPCI), developed by Buff Dormeier, takes the relationship between price and volume a step further. While traditional indicators like On-Balance Volume (OBV) or Chaikin Money Flow look at cumulative patterns, VPCI breaks price and volume into trend and volatility components and then recombines them to measure how well they confirm each other.
In essence, VPCI asks: “Does volume confirm what price is signaling?”
The formula integrates:
Price Trend Component – whether the market is trending upward or downward.
Volume Trend Component – whether trading activity supports that price trend.
Volatility Adjustments – to account for irregular swings.
The resulting oscillator fluctuates around a zero line:
Positive VPCI: Indicates that price and volume trends are in agreement (bullish confirmation).
Negative VPCI: Suggests that price and volume are diverging (bearish warning or false move).
Crossovers of Zero: Can serve as potential buy or sell signals, depending on context.
A key strength of VPCI is its sensitivity to divergence. When prices continue rising but VPCI begins falling, it often foreshadows a weakening rally. Conversely, a rising VPCI during a flat or down market can highlight early accumulation.
VTTI (Entry Signal) vs. VPCI (Exit Signal)
While both indicators study price-volume dynamics, their focus differs:
VTTI is simpler, emphasizing the trend of volume relative to price for momentum confirmation.
VPCI is more advanced, decomposing both price and volume into multiple components to produce a nuanced oscillator.
Used together, they provide complementary insights. VTTI helps quickly spot whether volume is supporting a move, while VPCI offers deeper confirmation and highlights subtle divergences.
Note: The Up/Down Volume Alert works better on the 4 HR, for Daily scalps or 30 minute for HR scalps. Intraday it's 2/10 minute.
🦅 Divergence toolkit 🦅
Divergences in Technical Analysis
Divergence occurs when the price action of an asset moves in one direction while a technical indicator, such as RSI, MACD, or Momentum, moves in the opposite direction. This disagreement between price and indicator often signals a shift in underlying market dynamics. Traders use divergences to anticipate either potential reversals or continuations in trends.
There are two main types of divergences: regular divergences, which typically precede reversals, and hidden divergences, which suggest continuation of the current trend.
Regular Divergence (Reversal Signals)
A regular divergence occurs when price and indicator disagree during a trend extension. These divergences signal that momentum is no longer fully supporting the current trend and that a reversal may be imminent.
🔹Regular Bullish Divergence
Price Action: Forms a lower low.
Indicator: Forms a higher low.
Interpretation: Price is making new lows, but the indicator is gaining strength. This suggests that selling pressure is weakening, and a reversal to the upside may occur.
Example: RSI rising while price dips to fresh lows.
🔹Regular Bearish Divergence
Price Action: Forms a higher high.
Indicator: Forms a lower high.
Interpretation: Price is reaching new highs, but the indicator shows weakening momentum. This implies that buying pressure is fading, warning of a potential downside reversal.
Example: MACD histogram falling while price makes higher highs.
Regular divergences are often spotted near the end of trends and are most powerful when aligned with key support/resistance levels or overbought/oversold conditions.
Hidden Divergence (Continuation Signals)
A hidden divergence occurs during retracements within a trend. Unlike regular divergences, hidden divergences suggest that the prevailing trend still has strength and is likely to continue.
🔹Hidden Bullish Divergence
Price Action: Forms a higher low.
Indicator: Forms a lower low.
Interpretation: Price is retracing within an uptrend, but the indicator is overshooting downward. This shows that momentum remains intact, supporting continuation upward.
🔹Hidden Bearish Divergence
Price Action: Forms a lower high.
Indicator: Forms a higher high.
Interpretation: Price is retracing within a downtrend, while the indicator overshoots upward. This indicates that bearish momentum remains strong, supporting continuation downward.
Hidden divergences often appear during pullbacks, helping traders time entries in the direction of the prevailing trend.
Practical Use of Divergences
🔹Trend Reversal Alerts – Regular divergences are early warnings that a trend may be ending.
🔹Trend Continuation Signals – Hidden divergences help confirm that retracements are simply pauses, not full reversals.
🔹Confluence with Other Tools – Divergences are more reliable when combined with support/resistance, candlestick patterns, or volume analysis.
🔹Multi-Timeframe Analysis – Spotting divergences on higher timeframes often produces stronger signals.

Practical playbook
1) Classic Squeeze Break
Setup: 🔴(D)/🟡(2D)/🟣(3D) squeeze → wait for 🟢(1HR) Fired.
Confirm: Momentum > Signal and above +1 ATR (or DMI strong & rising).
Manage: add on pullbacks that hold +1 ATR; scale near +2 ATR or WVF AE/FE.
2) DSL Scalp in Trend
Setup: Clear trend (DMI strong) + DSL bull/bear trigger in the direction of trend.
Filter: avoid tight/very tight yellow/purple unless you want micro-scalps.
Exit: opposite DSL or ATR midline loss.
3) Mean-Reversion Fade
Setup: Momentum extended to ±3 ATR, WVF spike, and a regular divergence.
Entry: Counter signal only when mom crosses back through ±3 ATR toward mid. Exit early if squeeze ⚫/🔴, Momentum may extend to ±3/2 ATR in the same direction.
Risk: reduce size; this is a fade, not trend following.
4) Volume-Confirmed Breakout
Setup: Squeeze → 🟢 Fired + VPCI > 0 and VTTI up → trend continuation.
Manage: trail behind +1 ATR (long) or −1 ATR (short). 9 SMA works good.
Inputs at a glance (key ones)
Mode: Price or CVD momentum; Squeeze Sensitivity (σ); Momentum Length; Signal Length; ATR Smoothing.
🧮 Colors:
SQZMOM: per squeeze regime, momentum, ATR fills.
DSL: On/Off, Fast/Slow, Length.
ATR Zones: Bullish/Bearish levels (±1), ±2/±3 zone lines & fills.
DMI: Lengths, key & weak thresholds, label on/off.
WVF/VIX: Lookbacks, bands, AE/FE toggles, VIX proxy symbol.
VTTI/VPCI: Fast/slow/signal (VTTI), Short/Long (VPCI), and volume source (Tick/CVD/NVI/PVI/OBV/PVT/AccDist/VWAP).
Divergences: Regular/Hidden toggles, Sensitivity %, Lifetime, Live vs On-Close, Lines/Labels.
🔎 Suggested defaults (feel free to tweak)
Calibration: Size Momentum, so that when it's above zero the asset is trending up. For the signal, it can be kept the same or lower.
Intraday (60–240m): σ = 2.0, 18~20, 3~5, DSL Fast, DMI key 23, weak 17.
Daily/Weekly: keep σ = 2.0, consider DSL Slow, DMI key 25, weak 20, widen ATR filters; lean on VPCI/VTTI (4-HR).
CVD mode: use where tick/volume quality is high (index futures, liquid equities, crypto majors).
🪟 Tips & caveats
Swing Screener: Favor liquid underlyings (index futures/ETFs, large caps). Large-Cap, 2 M Vol, Mid-Cap, 500K Vol. Squeeze: BB( 20) upper < KC (20) upper, and BB (20) lower > KC (20) lower. Optional: Price above 9 SMA, 21 SMA, and 50 SMA, they are my SMA of choice. 200 SMA too, unless you are willing to fish in a bear market. Vice-versa for shorts. Optional: ADX 4 HR > 17, or 23 depending on what you are looking for.
Scalp Screener: Same as above, change the D 9 SMA to 5, and the BB/KC from D to 1 HR. Scalps may last 2~3 days.
Position Screener: Change all daily setting to W, aside from Volume. Optional: PEG < 1.5, FCF > 0, ROA > 8% or ROE > 6%.
Good with Moving averages (9/21/50) and low-volume zones.
Position size by IV, ATR, and account risk. Consider stop/hedge rules around ±2/±3 ATR.
Let alerts stage your watchlist; act only on combined squeeze + momentum signals.
Divergences in live mode can repaint (Real-Time); for algo or alerts, use on-close.
Tight/Very tight squeezes are great for scalps but choppy; combine with DMI rising + VPCI>0.
±3 ATR is exhaustion context, not an auto-fade—look for WVF/Div/DSL confirmation.
For alerts, pair “Fired Squeeze + Bullish Swing” (or bearish) to avoid false starts.
🎯 How to Trade Entry ~ Recap:
Tight/very tight squeeze → fires → momentum crosses up (or DSL bull).
Exit/Flip: Momentum crosses down into/after expansion or hits +2/+3 ATR with fade signs. Filter: Avoid fresh longs at +3 ATR; avoid fresh shorts at −3 ATR unless fading with confirmation.
📐 Options Integrations
✅ Risk Reversal/Modified Risk Reversal (Bullish: Short Put + Long Call)
Use when: Squeeze fires up from 🟡/🟣 and momentum crosses above signal (or zero/DSL).
Playbook Entry: On or just after the bullish fire and momentum upcross. DMI or Volume supports trend as well.
Structure: Sell a put at/just below the −2 ATR reference (or recent swing support). Buy a call at/above the breakout zone (prior high/mid-range +1 to +2 ATR).
A classic risk reversal is a long call plus a short put. That’s a very bullish structure—you gain if the price rallies (via the call), and you collect a premium by selling a put. But it has a naked downside risk. The modified risk reversal fixes that by adding a long lower put (making the short put into a defined put credit spread).
Management: If momentum stays above signal, ride toward +2 → +3 ATR. Sell the put near the current price → receive big premium. Buy the lower put → spend part of that premium (risk cap). Buy the call above the current price → spend more, but the short put premium mostly pays for it.
Exits/Adjust: Momentum downcross or squeeze flips back on (new compression) → reduce. If price retests −1/−2 ATR and holds, you can roll the short put down/out.
Breakout = Big Success; No Breakout = you keep the initial credit. Reversal = Max loss is capped by the long lower put.
✅ Iron Condor (Neutral: Short OTM Put Spread + Short OTM Call Spread)
Use when: Squeeze is active (🟡/🟣), momentum is flat near zero, and there is no directional edge. 🟢 lasts for around 5~8 bars typically. I measure the historical duration of it, and wait for a range period to occur.
Playbook Entry: During compression, set wings outside ±2 ATR (or recent range extremes). I prefer identifying boxes where the rectangle pattern occurs on the chart.
Management: Time decay works while price remains trapped in the coil. High-winrate ~80%, but 1 loser can wipe most of the gains.
Exits/Adjust: If a squeeze fires and momentum breaks hard one way, close the losing side, consider converting to a vertical or rotating to a directional spread aligned with momentum.
4HR-Bullish, closing one wing:
Tip: Align daily/weekly context with your intraday entries. 9 > 50 on Weekly, similar on Daily. Sell premium into compression; switch to directional spreads on expansion and momentum confirmation.
✅ Naked Call/Puts (Directional: 10~30 Delta Calls)
Stick to naked calls and puts when the squeezes are fired from either 🔴 or ⚫.
Look for Strikes slightly out of the money with an OI and Volume spread less than <10%.
If Strike Date is >45, manage 21 Days before expiration. Scalp: Expiration Strikes of 1/4 of the Squeeze period. Leap: Expiration Strikes of 1.75x of the Squeeze period.
📐 Futures Integrations
Playbook Entry:
Verify if the squeeze on the hourly is red or green, and enter on the 2- or 5-minute during a similar squeeze state.
Trend-Following: Traditional 2 Renko Block above 21 SMA and Momentum is bullish, or vice versa. (2~ES, 5~NQ)
Structure: Go long at/just below the ATR reference (or recent swing support). Exit below the breakout zone (prior high/mid-range +1 to +2 ATR).
Management: If momentum stays above +1 ATR ride toward +2 → +3 ATR, etc. House-money, should be kept.
Exits/Adjust: Momentum downcross or squeeze flips back on (new compression) → exit. On Renko Charts, lower the sensitivity to 0.7~1. If price retests 0/−1/−2 ATR and holds, you can enter when the 9 SMA flips. The 50 SMA is better for Daily and up; I wouldn't trade against it then.

Compression Zones by @crypto.erkeCompression Zones - a handy tool I whipped up to spot those quiet moments in the market where volatility drops low. These compression zones often hint at big breakouts or trend shifts.
Key Features:
Volatility Check: I built it with Standard Deviation or ATR, using a 14-period lookback and 50-period SMA to track those calm patches.
Compression Alert: You’ll see a "+" pop up just above the candle when a zone kicks in, with an alert hitting you at candle close—simple and to the point.
Last 20 Zones: Keeps the last 20 zones on your chart so you can glance back at the action.
Tweak It: Defaults are set, but hidden inputs let you play around if you’re feeling adventurous.
How to Use:
Drop it on your chart.
Set an alert for "Compression found" to catch those sweet spots.
Keep an eye on the "+" - great for planning your next move in or out.
Notes:
Works like a charm on crypto, but it’s versatile for any asset.
Hidden settings are there if you want to dig deeper.
The "+" stays put pretty well, even when you zoom—thanks to some label magic I figured out!
