PENTAD THEORY 30 MINUTE INITIAL BALANCE With Candle HighlightThis indicator is designed to highlight the 30-minute initial balance range, visualize key retracement levels, and provide insights into market behavior based on defined conditions. It also enhances clarity by applying specific color changes to the :06 and :36 minute candle in relative 30-minute intervals.
Key Features:
Initial Balance Box:
Automatically creates a price range (box) representing the first 6 minutes of each 30-minute interval.
The box dynamically updates during this period to capture the high and low prices.
Color-Coded Zones:
Inside the Box: Yellow background indicates price trading within the range.
Above the Box: Green background shows price breaking above the range.
Below the Box: Red background reflects price breaking below the range.
EMA Overlay:
Plots 3 customizable EMAs (default lengths: 9, 21, 55).
Each EMA can be toggled on/off and colored individually for trend analysis.
Retracement Levels:
Automatically calculates and displays key Fibonacci retracement levels (61.8% and 38.2%) based on the box size.
Adds a midline for additional price reference.
Candle Highlighting:
The :06 and :36 minute candle in relative 30-minute intervals is highlighted with a customizable blue color to draw attention to specific market activity.
The break above or below the 6 minute candle or the close of the 6 minute candle outside the box can help determine the direction of the 30-minute interval.
How to Use:
Trend Confirmation:
Use the EMAs to identify overall trend direction. For example, a bullish trend is indicated when shorter EMAs (e.g., 9 EMA) are above longer ones (e.g., 55 EMA).
Breakout and Retracement Analysis:
Watch for price breaking out of the initial balance box.
Observe retracement levels (61.8% and 38.2%) as potential areas for reversal or continuation.

JJ Highlight Time Ranges with First 5 Minutes and LabelsTo effectively use this Pine Script as a day trader , here’s how the various elements can help you manage trades, track time sessions, and monitor price movements:
Key Components for a Day Trader:
1. First 5-Minute Highlight:
- Purpose: Day traders often rely on the first 5 minutes of the trading session to gauge market sentiment, watch for opening price gaps, or plan entries. This script draws a horizontal line at the high or low of the first 5 minutes, which can act as a key level for the rest of the day.
- How to Use: If the price breaks above or below the first 5-minute line, it can signal momentum. You might enter a long position if the price breaks above the first 5-minute high or a short if it breaks below the first 5-minute low.
2. Session Time Highlights:
- Morning Session (9:15–10:30 AM): The market often shows its strongest price action during the first hour of trading. This session is highlighted in yellow. You can use this highlight to focus on the most volatile period, as this is when large institutional moves tend to occur.
- Afternoon Session (12:30–2:55 PM): The blue highlight helps you track the mid-afternoon session, where liquidity may decrease, and price action can sometimes be choppier. Day traders should be more cautious during this period.
- How to Use: By highlighting these key times, you can:
- Focus on key breakouts during the morning session.
- Be more conservative in your trades during the afternoon, as market volatility may drop.
3. Dynamic Labels:
- Top/Bottom Positioning: The script places labels dynamically based on the selected position (Top or Bottom). This allows you to quickly glance at the session's start and identify where you are in terms of time.
- How to Use: Use these labels to remind yourself when major time segments (morning or afternoon) begin. You can adjust your trading strategy depending on the session, e.g., being more aggressive in the morning and more cautious in the afternoon.
Trading Strategy Suggestions:
1. Momentum Trades:
- After the first 5 minutes, use the high/low of that period to set up breakout trades.
- Long Entry: If the price breaks the high of the first 5 minutes (especially if there's a strong trend).
- Short Entry: If the price breaks the low of the first 5 minutes, signaling a potential downtrend.
2. Session-Based Strategy:
- Morning Session (9:15–10:30 AM):
- Look for strong breakout patterns such as support/resistance levels, moving average crossovers, or candlestick patterns (like engulfing candles or pin bars).
- This is a high liquidity period, making it ideal for executing quick trades.
- Afternoon Session (12:30–2:55 PM):
- The market tends to consolidate or show less volatility. Scalping and mean-reversion strategies work better here.
- Avoid chasing big moves unless you see a clear breakout in either direction.
3. Support and Resistance:
- The first 5-minute high/low often acts as a key support or resistance level for the rest of the day. If the price holds above or below this level, it’s an indication of trend continuation.
4. Breakout Confirmation:
- Look for breakouts from the highlighted session time ranges (e.g., 9:15 AM–10:30 AM or 12:30 PM–2:55 PM).
- If a breakout happens during a key time window, combine that with other technical indicators like volume spikes , RSI , or MACD for confirmation.
---
Example Day Trader Usage:
1. First 5 Minutes Strategy: After the market opens at 9:15 AM, watch the price action for the first 5 minutes. The high and low of these 5 minutes are critical levels. If the price breaks above the high of the first 5 minutes, it might indicate a strong bullish trend for the day. Conversely, breaking below the low may suggest bearish movement.
2. Morning Session: After the first 5 minutes, focus on the **9:15 AM–10:30 AM** window. During this time, look for breakout setups at key support/resistance levels, especially when paired with high volume or momentum indicators. This is when many institutions make large trades, so price action tends to be more volatile and predictable.
3. Afternoon Session: From 12:30 PM–2:55 PM, the market might experience lower volatility, making it ideal for scalping or range-bound strategies. You could look for reversals or fading strategies if the market becomes too quiet.
Conclusion:
As a day trader, you can use this script to:
- Track and react to key price levels during the first 5 minutes.
- Focus on high volatility in the morning session (9:15–10:30 AM) and **be cautious** during the afternoon.
- Use session-based timing to adjust your strategies based on the time of day.
NVOL Normalized Volume & VolatilityOVERVIEW
Plots a normalized volume (or volatility) relative to a given bar's typical value across all charted sessions. The concept is similar to Relative Volume (RVOL) and Average True Range (ATR), but rather than using a moving average, this script uses bar data from previous sessions to more accurately separate what's normal from what's anomalous. Compatible on all timeframes and symbols.
Having volume and volatility processed within a single indicator not only allows you to toggle between the two for a consistent data display, it also allows you to measure how correlated they are. These measurements are available in the data table.
DATA & MATH
The core formula used to normalize each bar is:
( Value / Basis ) × Scale
Value
The current bar's volume or volatility (see INPUTS section). When set to volume, it's exactly what you would expect (the volume of the bar). When set to volatility, it's the bar's range (high - low).
Basis
A statistical threshold (Mean, Median, or Q3) plus a Sigma multiple (standard deviations). The default is set to the Mean + Sigma × 3 , which represents 99.7% of data in a normal distribution. The values are derived from the current bar's equivalent in other sessions. For example, if the current bar time is 9:30 AM, all previous 9:30 AM bars would be used to get the Mean and Sigma. Thus Mean + Sigma × 3 would represent the Normal Bar Vol at 9:30 AM.
Scale
Depends on the Normalize setting, where it is 1 when set to Ratio, and 100 when set to Percent. This simply determines the plot's scale (ie. 0 to 1 vs. 0 to 100).
INPUTS
While the default configuration is recommended for a majority of use cases (see BEST PRACTICES), settings should be adjusted so most of the Normalized Plot and Linear Regression are below the Signal Zone. Only the most extreme values should exceed this area.
Normalize
Allows you to specify what should be normalized (Volume or Volatility) and how it should be measured (as a Ratio or Percentage). This sets the value and scale in the core formula.
Basis
Specifies the statistical threshold (Mean, Median, or Q3) and how many standard deviations should be added to it (Sigma). This is the basis in the core formula.
Mean is the sum of values divided by the quantity of values. It's what most people think of when they say "average."
Median is the middle value, where 50% of the data will be lower and 50% will be higher.
Q3 is short for Third Quartile, where 75% of the data will be lower and 25% will be higher (think three quarters).
Sample
Determines the maximum sample size.
All Charted Bars is the default and recommended option, and ignores the adjacent lookback number.
Lookback is not recommended, but it is available for comparisons. It uses the adjacent lookback number and is likely to produce unreliable results outside a very specific context that is not suitable for most traders. Normalization is not a moving average. Unless you have a good reason to limit the sample size, do not use this option and instead use All Charted Bars .
Show Vol. name on plot
Overlays "VOLUME" or "VOLATILITY" on the plot (whichever you've selected).
Lin. Reg.
Polynomial regressions are great for capturing non-linear patterns in data. TradingView offers a "linear regression curve", which this script uses as a substitute. If you're unfamiliar with either term, think of this like a better moving average.
You're able to specify the color, length, and multiple (how much to amplify the value). The linear regression derives its value from the normalized values.
Norm. Val.
This is the color of the normalized value of the current bar (see DATA & MATH section). You're able to specify the default, within signal, and beyond signal colors. As well as the plot style.
Fade in colors between zero and the signal
Programmatically adjust the opacity of the primary plot color based on it's normalized value. When enabled, values equal to 0 will be fully transparent, become more opaque as they move away from 0, and be fully opaque at the signal. Adjusting opacity in this way helps make difference more obvious.
Plot relative to bar direction
If enabled, the normalized value will be multiplied by -1 when a bar's open is greater than the bar's close, mirroring price direction.
Technically volume and volatility are directionless. Meaning there's really no such thing as buy volume, sell volume, positive volatility, or negative volatility. There is just volume (1 buy = 1 sell = 1 volume) and volatility (high - low). Even so, visually reflecting the net effect of pricing pressure can still be useful. That's all this setting does.
Sig. Zone
Signal zones make identifying extremes easier. They do not signal if you should buy or sell, only that the current measurement is beyond what's normal. You are able to adjust the color and bounds of the zone.
Int. Levels
Interim levels can be useful when you want to visually bracket values into high / medium / low. These levels can have a value anywhere between 0 and 1. They will automatically be multiplied by 100 when the scale is set to Percent.
Zero Line
This setting allows you to specify the visibility of the zero line to best suit your trading style.
Volume & Volatility Stats
Displays a table of core values for both volume and volatility. Specifically the actual value, threshold (mean, median, or Q3), sigma (standard deviation), basis, normalized value, and linear regression.
Correlation Stats
Displays a table of correlation statistics for the current bar, as well as the data set average. Specifically the coefficient, R2, and P-Value.
Indices & Sample Size
Displays a table of mixed data. Specifically the current bar's index within the session, the current bar's index within the sample, and the sample size used to normalize the current bar's value.
BEST PRACTICES
NVOL can tell you what's normal for 9:30 AM. RVOL and ATR can only tell you if the current value is higher or lower than a moving average.
In a normal distribution (bell curve) 99.7% of data occurs within 3 standard deviations of the mean. This is why the default basis is set to "Mean, 3"; it includes the typical day-to-day fluctuations, better contextualizing what's actually normal, minimizing false positives.
This means a ratio value greater than 1 only occurs 0.3% of the time. A series of these values warrants your attention. Which is why the default signal zone is between 1 and 2. Ratios beyond 2 would be considered extreme with the default settings.
Inversely, ratio values less than 1 (the normal daily fluctuations) also tell a story. We should expect most values to occur around the middle 3rd, which is why interim levels default to 0.33 and 0.66, visually simplifying a given move's participation. These can be set to whatever you like and only serve as visual aids for your specific trading style.
It's worth noting that the linear regression oscillates when plotted directionally, which can help clarify short term move exhaustion and continuation. Akin to a relative strength index (RSI), it may be used to inform a trading decision, but it should not be the only factor.
Time-Based VWAP (TVWAP)(TVWAP) Indicator
The Time-Based Volume Weighted Average Price (TVWAP) indicator is a customized version of VWAP designed for intraday trading sessions with defined start and end times. Unlike the traditional VWAP, which calculates the volume-weighted average price over an entire trading day, this indicator allows you to focus on specific time periods, such as ICT kill zones (e.g., London Open, New York Open, Power Hour). It helps crypto scalpers and advanced traders identify price deviations relative to volume during key trading windows.
Key Features:
Custom Time Interval:
You can set the exact start and end times for the VWAP calculation using input settings for hours and minutes (24-hour format).
Ideal for analyzing short, high-liquidity periods.
Dynamic Accumulation of Price and Volume:
The indicator resets at the beginning of the specified session and accumulates price-volume data until the end of the session.
Ensures that the TVWAP reflects the weighted average price specific to the chosen session.
Visual Representation:
The indicator plots the TVWAP line only during the specified time window, providing a clear visual reference for price action during that period.
Outside the session, the TVWAP line is hidden (na).
Use Cases:
ICT Scalp Trading:
Monitor price rebalances or potential liquidity sweeps near TVWAP during important trading sessions.
Mean Reversion Strategies:
Detect pullbacks toward the session’s average price for potential entry points.
Breakout Confirmation:
Confirm price direction relative to TVWAP during kill zones or high-volume times to determine if a breakout is supported by volume.
Inputs:
Start Hour/Minute: The time when the TVWAP calculation starts.
End Hour/Minute: The time when the TVWAP calculation ends.
Technical Explanation:
The indicator uses the timestamp function to create time markers for the session start and end.
During the session, the price-volume (close * volume) is accumulated along with the total volume.
TVWAP is calculated as:
TVWAP = (Sum of (Price × Volume)) ÷ (Sum of Volume)
Once the session ends, the TVWAP resets for the next trading period.
Customization Ideas:
Alerts: Add notifications when the price touches or deviates significantly from TVWAP.
Different Colors: Use different line colors based on upward or downward trends.
Multiple Sessions: Add support for multiple TVWAP lines for different time periods (e.g., London + New York).
Fibonacci Retracement MTF/LOGIn Pine Script, there’s always a shorter way to achieve a result. As far as I can see, there isn’t an indicator among the community scripts that can produce Fibonacci Retracement levels (linear and logarithmic) as multiple time frame results based on a reference 🍺 This script, which I developed a long time ago, might serve as a starting point to fill this gap.
OVERVIEW
This indicator is a short and simple script designed to display Fibonacci Retracement levels on the chart according to user preferences, aiming to build the structure of support and resistance.
ORIGINALITY
This script:
Can calculate 'retracement' results from higher time frames.
Can recall previous time frame results using its reference parameter.
Performs calculations based on both linear and logarithmic scales.
Offers optional multipliers and appearance settings to simplify users’ tasks
CONCEPTS
Fibonacci Retracement is a technical analysis tool used to predict potential reversal points in an asset's price after a significant movement. This indicator identifies possible support and resistance levels by measuring price movements between specific points in a trend, using certain ratios derived from the Fibonacci sequence. It is based on impulsive price actions.
MECHANICS
This indicator first identifies the highest and lowest prices in the time frame specified by the user. Next, it determines the priority order of the bars where these prices occurred. Finally, it defines the trend direction. Once the trend direction is determined, the "Retracement" levels are constructed.
FUNCTIONS
The script contains two functions:
f_ret(): Generates levels based on the multiplier parameter.
f_print(): Handles the visualization by drawing the levels on the chart and positioning the labels in alignment with the levels. It utilizes parameters such as ordinate, confirmation, multiplier, and color for customization
NOTES
The starting bar for the time frame entered by the user must exist on the chart. Otherwise, the trend direction cannot be determined correctly, and the levels may be drawn inaccurately. This is also mentioned in the tooltip of the TimeFrame parameter.
I hope it helps everyone. Do not forget to manage your risk. And trade as safely as possible. Best of luck!
Candle Spread Oscillator (CS0)The Candle Spread Oscillator (CSO) is a custom technical indicator designed to help traders identify momentum and directional strength in the market by analyzing the relationship between the candle body spread and the total candle range. This oscillator provides traders with a visually intuitive representation of price action dynamics and highlights key transitions between positive and negative momentum.
How It Works:
Body Spread vs. Total Range:
The CSO calculates the body spread (difference between the close and open price) and compares it to the total range (difference between the high and low price) of a candle.
The ratio of the body spread to the total range represents the proportion of price movement driven by directional momentum.
Smoothed Oscillator:
To remove noise and enhance clarity, the ratio is smoothed using a Hull Moving Average (HMA). The smoothing period can be adjusted through the "Smoothing Period" input, enabling traders to tailor the indicator to their preferred timeframes or strategies.
Gradient Visualization:
A gradient coloring is applied to the oscillator, transitioning smoothly between colors (e.g., fuchsia for negative momentum and aqua for positive momentum). This provides traders with a clear, intuitive visual cue of market behavior.
Visual Features:
Oscillator Plot:
The oscillator is displayed as an area-style plot, dynamically colored using a gradient. Positive values are represented in shades of aqua, while negative values are in shades of fuchsia.
Midline (0 Level):
A horizontal midline is plotted at the zero level, serving as a key reference point for identifying transitions between positive and negative momentum.
Background Highlights:
The chart background is subtly colored to match the oscillator's state, enhancing the visual emphasis on current momentum conditions.
Alerts for Key Crossovers:
The CSO comes with built-in alert conditions, making it highly actionable for traders:
Cross Up Alert: Triggers when the oscillator crosses above the midline (0), signaling a potential shift into positive momentum.
Cross Down Alert: Triggers when the oscillator crosses below the midline (0), indicating a potential transition into negative momentum.
These alerts allow traders to stay informed about critical market shifts without constantly monitoring the chart.
How to Use:
Trend Identification:
When the oscillator is above the midline and positive, it indicates that price action is moving with bullish momentum.
When the oscillator is below the midline and negative, it reflects bearish momentum.
Momentum Strength:
The magnitude of the oscillator (its distance from the midline) helps traders gauge the strength of the momentum. Stronger moves will push the oscillator further from zero.
Potential Reversals:
Crossovers of the oscillator through the midline can signal potential reversals or shifts in market direction.
Customization:
Adjust the Smoothing Period to adapt the sensitivity of the oscillator to different timeframes. A lower smoothing period reacts faster to price changes, while a higher smoothing period smooths out noise.
Best Use Cases:
Momentum Trading: Identify periods of sustained bullish or bearish momentum to align with the trend.
Reversal Signals: Spot transitions in market direction when the oscillator crosses the midline.
Confirmation Tool: Use the CSO alongside other indicators (e.g., volume, trendlines, or moving averages) to confirm trading signals.
Key Inputs:
Smoothing Period: Customize the sensitivity of the oscillator by adjusting the lookback period for the Hull Moving Average.
Gradient Range: The color gradient transitions between defined thresholds (-0.1 to 0.2 by default), ensuring a smooth visual experience.
[Why Use the Candle Spread Oscillator?
The CSO is a simple yet powerful tool for traders who want to:
Gain a deeper understanding of price momentum.
Quickly visualize shifts between bullish and bearish trends.
Use clear, actionable signals with customizable alerts.
Disclaimer: This indicator is not a standalone trading strategy. It should be used in combination with other technical and fundamental analysis tools. Always trade responsibly, and consult a financial advisor for personalized advice.

How to Use It in Trading:------->
Add the Indicator:
Apply this Indicator to your Trading View chart to start visualizing the buyer/seller pressure and volume averages.
Interpret Volume Trends:
Look for days when daily volume significantly exceeds the 3-day, 5-day, 10-day, or 20-day average.
These could indicate:
A breakout when aligned with strong buyer pressure.
A sell-off when aligned with strong seller pressure.
React to Background Colors:
* Green Background (Strong Buyer Pressure):
Suggests buyers are dominating the market, and upward momentum is likely.
Use this signal to consider buying opportunities, especially if volume is above average.
* Red Background (Strong Seller Pressure):
Indicates sellers are in control, and prices might fall.
Use this signal to consider selling or shorting opportunities.
* Gray Background (Neutral Market):
Reflects indecision; avoid entering trades during these periods unless other signals support a strategy.
Volume Confirmation:
Combine volume analysis with buyer/seller pressure to confirm trends.
Example: A high daily volume with strong buyer pressure signals a high-probability uptrend.

In low-volume markets, signals may produce false positives or unreliable results.
Assumes traders have basic knowledge of price action and volume analysis.
By integrating this indicator into your strategy, you gain a powerful tool to analyze buyer/seller dominance alongside volume trends, improving your market timing and trade execution.
The Buyer and Seller Pressure components in this indicator provide crucial insights into the market's sentiment and momentum by analyzing the price action relative to the trading volume. Here's how they are used:
1. Buyer Pressure:
Formula:
Buyer Pressure = (Close − Open) / (High − Low )
Interpretation:
* A high buyer pressure (≥ 0.75) indicates strong bullish sentiment, where the price closes much higher than it opened, and the range (high-low) is sufficiently wide.
* It identifies periods of aggressive buying, often signaling potential bullish trends or confirming upward momentum.
2. Seller Pressure:
Formula:
Seller Pressure = (Close − Open ) / (High -Low )
Interpretation:
*A high seller pressure (≥ 0.75) suggests strong bearish sentiment, where the price closes much lower than it opened, within a wide range.
*It helps identify periods of aggressive selling, signaling potential bearish trends or downward momentum.
Purpose in the Indicator:
1. Market Sentiment Analysis:
* Buyer Pressure and Seller Pressure allow traders to gauge market sentiment—whether buyers or sellers dominate a particular time frame.
* This helps in identifying trend reversals or confirmations.
2. Decision-Making Framework:
* The indicator uses thresholds (default 0.75) to classify the market into:
* Strong Buy Signal: When buyer pressure is dominant.
* Strong Sell Signal: When seller pressure is dominant.
* Neutral Signal: When neither buyer nor seller pressure dominates.
*This classification provides a straightforward decision-making tool for traders.
Risk Management:
*By identifying periods of strong buying or selling, traders can avoid entering trades in highly volatile or one-sided markets, which helps reduce risk.
Volume Confirmation:
*Integrating volume data with buyer/seller pressure helps confirm trends. For example:
*High buyer pressure accompanied by higher-than-average volume strengthens the bullish signal.
*Similarly, high seller pressure with higher-than-average volume confirms bearish signals.
Trade Timing:
*The indicator highlights conditions of potential entry (strong buy) or exit (strong sell), allowing traders to time their trades better based on real-time market activity.
Use Case:
*Example:
*Suppose the indicator shows Buyer Pressure = 0.85 with daily volume above the 3-day average. This combination suggests strong bullish activity with momentum, signaling a buy opportunity.
*Conversely, if Seller Pressure = 0.80 with volume above the 5-day average, it signals strong bearish momentum, ideal for selling or shorting.
This indicator combines buyer/seller pressure with volume dynamics, making it valuable for short-term and intraday traders looking for precise market entries and exits.
The background color in this indicator plays an important visual role in helping traders quickly identify the market sentiment based on buyer and seller pressure. It provides a dynamic, color-coded background that changes depending on the strength of the market's buying or selling activity.
Here's how it works:
Background Color Logic:
1. Green Background (Strong Buy Signal):
*Condition: The background turns green when buyer pressure is greater than or equal to 0.75 (strong buying pressure).
*Interpretation: A green background indicates that there is significant bullish sentiment in the market, with strong buying activity. Traders can interpret this as an environment conducive to buying or holding long positions.
*Visual Effect: This helps to quickly spot bullish market conditions, reinforcing potential entry signals for buyers.
2.Red Background (Strong Sell Signal):
*Condition: The background turns red when seller pressure is greater than or equal to 0.75 (strong selling pressure).
*Interpretation: A red background indicates that the market is dominated by selling, showing strong bearish sentiment. Traders can consider this as a signal to sell or short the asset.
*Visual Effect: The red background highlights moments when the market is heavily selling, prompting traders to either exit long positions or take short positions.
Gray Background (Neutral/Indecision Zone):
Condition: The background turns gray when neither buyer nor seller pressure exceeds 0.75. This means the market is neutral, with no dominant bullish or bearish sentiment.
Interpretation: A gray background suggests market indecision or balance between buyers and sellers. It can indicate periods of consolidation or sideways movement where no strong trend is forming.
Visual Effect: The gray background helps traders avoid entering trades when the market lacks a clear direction or when the sentiment is neutral, reducing risk during indecisive times.
Practical Use:
Instant Visual Confirmation:
*Traders can use the background color as an instant confirmation of the market’s sentiment. For instance, if the background turns green, traders might feel more confident in making a long (buy) trade.
*If the background turns red, it serves as a strong visual cue to short or exit a long position.
Helps with Trade Timing:
*The background color can be used in conjunction with other indicators and volume data to time entries and exits more effectively. For example:
*A green background with strong volume indicates a strong trend that could justify a buy.
*A red background with a significant volume surge signals strong selling pressure, which could prompt a sell.
Simplifies Market Analysis:
*For traders who prefer visual cues over complex analysis, the background color simplifies market conditions. Instead of focusing on individual numbers or values, the color-coded background gives them a quick, intuitive view of the market sentiment.
Summary:
* Green background = Strong buying pressure (bullish sentiment)
* Red background = Strong selling pressure (bearish sentiment)
* Gray background = Neutral market (indecision or balance between buyers and sellers)
This background color functionality helps traders stay aware of the prevailing market sentiment at a glance, providing an intuitive way to guide trading decisions.
Enhanced VFI Buyer/Seller PressureThe "Enhanced VFI Buyer/Seller Pressure" indicator serves multiple roles in technical analysis and trading decision-making. Here's an overview of its purpose and functionality:
1. Understanding Market Dynamics
* Buyer Pressure: Indicates how strongly buyers are influencing the price movement during a specific period.
* Seller Pressure: Reflects the intensity of selling activity and its impact on price movement.
Helps assess the balance of power between buyers and sellers.
2. Identifying Key Trading Signals
* Strong Buy Signal: Triggered when buyer pressure exceeds the threshold, suggesting strong upward momentum and a potential opportunity to buy.
* Strong Sell Signal: Triggered when seller pressure exceeds the threshold, indicating strong downward momentum and a potential opportunity to sell.
* Neutral Zone: Represents periods of indecision, where neither buyers nor sellers dominate, often leading to consolidation or reduced volatility.
3. Visualizing Volume Flow Index (VFI)
VFI: Measures the money flow in and out of the market, factoring in both price and volume dynamics.
Helps identify bullish or bearish trends through crossovers:
* VFI Crossover EMA: Signals a bullish shift.
* VFI Crossunder EMA: Signals a bearish shift.
4. Supporting Decision-Making
Histogram Visualization: Provides an easy-to-read representation of buyer and seller pressure over time.
Faded bars indicate weak pressure, discouraging action during periods of low market activity.
Background Color Dynamics: Offers immediate visual cues for prevailing market conditions:
* Green for strong buy signals.
* Red for strong sell signals.
* Gray for neutral conditions.
Zero Line: Acts as a baseline to differentiate positive and negative pressure, simplifying interpretation.
5. Alerts for Automation
Configurable alerts ensure traders are notified when:
Buyer or seller pressure exceeds predefined thresholds.
VFI crosses above or below the EMA, indicating potential trend changes.
Use Cases in Trading:
Momentum Trading: Identify when momentum strongly favors buyers or sellers.
Trend Confirmation: Use VFI crossover signals to confirm the direction of a trend.
Risk Management: Avoid trading in neutral or low-pressure zones where market direction is uncertain.
Volume-Driven Analysis: Leverage VFI to gauge the impact of volume on price trends, especially in high-volatility markets.
This indicator combines price action, volume analysis, and trend identification to provide a comprehensive tool for traders seeking an edge in market analysis.

Candles Volume HeatMap [BigBeluga]Candles Volume HeatMap
The Candle Volume HeatMap indicator is a unique and advanced tool that visualizes lower timeframe volume activity within higher timeframe candles, offering traders a granular perspective on volume distribution.
⚠️Important note: before using the indicator, it is necessary to apply it to the candles
🔵Key Features:
Volume HeatMap Visualization: The indicator breaks down each higher timeframe candle into 10 equal vertical segments (boxes) based on its high-to-low range. Each box represents a lower timeframe candle's volume activity, with more intense colors indicating stronger volume levels.
Lower Timeframe Integration: Automatically uses a timeframe 10x lower than the current chart. For example, on a 10-hour chart, it uses 1-hour candles to extract volume data.
POC (Point of Control): The highest volume box within each candle is marked with the volume value. The indicator also plots a horizontal POC line at the level of this box, highlighting significant areas of price interest. The POC line is removed once the price crosses it, ensuring the chart stays clean.
Delta Display (Optional): Traders can enable the Delta feature to analyze buyer vs. seller activity within each higher timeframe candle.
Delta is calculated by summing 10 lower timeframe candles: a bullish candle adds to buyers, while a bearish candle adds to sellers. Displays the net Delta percentage: positive values (white) indicate buyer dominance, while negative values (red) indicate seller dominance.
Dynamic Volume Scaling: The highest volume value in each candle is displayed inside its respective box, providing quick insights into critical price-volume levels.
🔵How It Works:
For each higher timeframe candle, the indicator analyzes 10 lower timeframe candles and maps their volume into 10 segments (boxes) between the high and low of the current candle.
The intensity of each box's color corresponds to the relative volume of the lower timeframe candle it represents.
The POC highlights the price level with the highest concentration of volume, aiding in identifying potential support/resistance zones.
Delta analysis offers additional insights into market sentiment by breaking down buyer and seller activity in each candle.
🔵Use Cases:
Spotting key volume areas within higher timeframe candles to identify support and resistance levels.
Analyzing volume concentration for potential breakout or reversal zones.
Leveraging Delta analysis to gauge market sentiment and confirm volume-based trends.
This indicator is ideal for traders seeking to combine volume analysis with price action, offering precise insights into volume distribution and market dynamics.

Leverage-Aware Trade Optimizer (LATO)
Short Title: LATO
Category: Trading Tools / Technical Analysis
Overview
The Leverage-Aware Trade Optimizer (LATO) is a powerful algorithm designed to track and analyze market oscillations, identify reversal zones, and provide dynamic trading levels for optimal decision-making. With built-in risk management features, LATO enhances traders’ ability to make well-informed decisions based on a comprehensive range of market indicators, including price oscillations, probabilities, and leverage-related risks.
Key Features
Comprehensive Market Oscillation Tracking: LATO utilizes advanced indicators such as the Indexed Position Oscillator (IPO), Candle Relative Percentage (CRP), and Oscillating Range Indicator (ORI) to track price fluctuations and detect key market oscillations, providing a detailed view of price movements.
Dynamic Price Levels for Trading Decisions: The script calculates critical price levels such as WAP, WBP, XAP, and XBP. These weighted and expanded prices help identify potential support and resistance zones for accurate trade entries and exits.
Reversal Detection and Trend Identification: LATO is designed to recognize top and bottom reversal zones using user-defined thresholds (e.g., upper_reversal, lower_reversal). The algorithm signals potential trend changes with event markers such as UP, DOWN, UIP, and DIP, enabling traders to anticipate market reversals.
Risk and Leverage Mapping: By estimating liquidation levels for various leverage values (5x, 10x, 20x, etc.), LATO assists in risk management, helping traders visualize leverage exposure and optimize their trades according to risk tolerance.
Integrated Visualization and Event Labels: LATO enhances visual analysis by plotting key levels, trend lines, and event markers on the chart. Custom labels summarize critical values, including SOD (Sell Odds), BOD (Buy Odds), ORI (Oscillating Range Indicator), and PVI (Price Volatility Index), offering a quick, actionable summary for traders.
User Inputs
Orders Deviation (order_deviation): Controls the deviation for calculating trade levels.
Top Reversal (upper_reversal): Sets the threshold for the upper reversal zone.
Bottom Reversal (lower_reversal): Sets the threshold for the lower reversal zone.
How It Works
LATO tracks market oscillations through the Indexed Position Oscillator (IPO) and Candle Relative Percentage (CRP), dynamically adjusting as the market fluctuates. The algorithm then identifies key levels using weighted prices (e.g., WAP, WBP) and generates reversal signals based on defined thresholds.
Once the Leverage-Aware Trade Optimizer (LATO) is applied to a chart, it automatically calculates dynamic support and resistance levels and identifies potential buying or selling opportunities. The script also plots liquidation zones based on different leverage levels and visualizes these areas through color-coded lines.
Use Case Scenarios
Trend Reversal Detection: Identify when the market is likely to reverse based on the ORI and price action.
Dynamic Price Levels: Use the weighted price levels and trend lines to pinpoint entry/exit points.
Leverage Risk Management: Monitor liquidation levels and use them for managing risk while trading with leverage.
Oscillation Tracking: Track key oscillations for detecting overbought or oversold conditions.
Alert Setup for LATO
You can set up alerts based on the key conditions like UP, DOWN, UIP, and DIP, as well as specific market movements.
Down Trend Alert (DOWN): Alerts when there’s a downtrend, triggered by a crossover of WBP and BL5, with specific conditions for ORI and SOD.
Up Trend Alert (UP): Alerts when there’s an uptrend, triggered by a crossunder of WAP and SL5, with ORI below -0.5.
Upper Reversal Alert (UIP): Alerts when ORI crosses below the lower_reversal threshold.
Downward Reversal Alert (DIP): Alerts when ORI crosses above the upper_reversal threshold.
Conclusion
The Leverage-Aware Trade Optimizer (LATO) is a comprehensive trading tool designed for traders seeking to optimize their trade entries and exits. By combining multiple indicators, dynamic price levels, and reversal zone detection, LATO offers an advanced approach to market analysis and decision-making. Whether you’re trading with leverage or simply looking for trend confirmation, LATO provides the insights you need to maximize your trading potential.

Dynamic Intensity Transition Oscillator (DITO)The Dynamic Intensity Transition Oscillator (DITO) is a comprehensive indicator designed to identify and visualize the slope of price action normalized by volatility, enabling consistent comparisons across different assets. This indicator calculates and categorizes the intensity of price movement into six states—three positive and three negative—while providing visual cues and alerts for state transitions.
Components and Functionality
1. Slope Calculation
- The slope represents the rate of change in price action over a specified period (Slope Calculation Period).
- It is calculated as the difference between the current price and the simple moving average (SMA) of the price, divided by the length of the period.
2. Normalization Using ATR
- To standardize the slope across assets with different price scales and volatilities, the slope is divided by the Average True Range (ATR).
- The ATR ensures that the slope is comparable across assets with varying price levels and volatility.
3. Intensity Levels
- The normalized slope is categorized into six distinct intensity levels:
High Positive: Strong upward momentum.
Medium Positive: Moderate upward momentum.
Low Positive: Weak upward movement or consolidation.
Low Negative: Weak downward movement or consolidation.
Medium Negative: Moderate downward momentum.
High Negative: Strong downward momentum.
4. Visual Representation
- The oscillator is displayed as a histogram, with each intensity level represented by a unique color:
High Positive: Lime green.
Medium Positive: Aqua.
Low Positive: Blue.
Low Negative: Yellow.
Medium Negative: Purple.
High Negative: Fuchsia.
Threshold levels (Low Intensity, Medium Intensity) are plotted as horizontal dotted lines for visual reference, with separate colors for positive and negative thresholds.
5. Intensity Table
- A dynamic table is displayed on the chart to show the current intensity level.
- The table's text color matches the intensity level color for easy interpretation, and its size and position are customizable.
6. Alerts for State Transitions
- The indicator includes a robust alerting system that triggers when the intensity level transitions from one state to another (e.g., from "Medium Positive" to "High Positive").
- The alert includes both the previous and current states for clarity.
Inputs and Customization
The DITO indicator offers a variety of customizable settings:
Indicator Parameters
Slope Calculation Period: Defines the period over which the slope is calculated.

By leveraging SOPR data and smoothing it through short- and long-term moving averages, this indicator provides traders with valuable insights into market behavior, helping them identify trends, reversals, and potential trading opportunities.
Understanding SOPR and Its Role in Trading
SOPR is a metric derived from on-chain data that measures the profit or loss of spent outputs on the Bitcoin network. It reflects the behavior of market participants based on the price at which Bitcoin was last moved. When SOPR is above 1, it indicates that outputs are being spent at a profit. Conversely, values below 1 suggest that outputs are being spent at a loss.
Rocheur’s SOPR indicator enhances this raw data by incorporating short-term and long-term smoothed trends, allowing traders to observe shifts in market sentiment and momentum.
How It Works
Data Source: The indicator uses SOPR data from Glassnode’s BTC_SOPR metric, updated daily.
Short-Term Trend (STH SOPR):
A Double Exponential Moving Average (DEMA) is applied over a customizable short-term length (default: 150 days).
This reflects recent market participant behavior.
Long-Term Trend (1-Year SOPR):
A Weighted Moving Average (WMA) is applied over a customizable long-term length (default: 365 days).
This captures broader market trends and investor behavior.
Trend Comparison:
Bullish Market: When STH SOPR exceeds the 1-year SOPR, the market is considered bullish.
Bearish Market: When STH SOPR falls below the 1-year SOPR, the market is considered bearish.
Neutral Market: When the two values are equal, the market is neutral.
Visual Representation
The indicator provides a color-coded visual representation for easy trend identification:
Green Bars: Indicate a bullish market where STH SOPR is above the 1-year SOPR.
Red Bars: Represent a bearish market where STH SOPR is below the 1-year SOPR.
Gray Bars: Show a neutral market condition where STH SOPR equals the 1-year SOPR.
The dynamic bar coloring allows traders to quickly assess the prevailing market sentiment and adjust their strategies accordingly.
Customization & Parameters
The SOPR Indicator offers several customizable settings to adapt to different trading styles and preferences:
Short-Term Length: Default set to 150 days, defines the smoothing period for the STH SOPR .
Long-Term Length: Default set to 365 days, defines the smoothing period for the 1-year SOPR.
