Averaging PriceA calculator that will help to survive in market storms and even to increase your deposit. This script will not help you to find the perfect price to buy, but will allow to buy more and more when the market will go down. But please, don't forget to sell some parts when position will be profitable (or close to that), so you will be able to buy more and more even on a bear market. Please, take a look at the market stress situations to correctly plan your strategy there.
How to use?
1. Define amount to want to gain to position (e.g. $1000), this amount of money you will lose in case of liquidation (for isolation mode) or entire futures deposit in case of cross mode.
2. Configure existing position (price where you entered and amount of coins you already in), if no any - it's even better. Calculator will help with the right amount for a first purchase.
3. Configure futures, closs/isolation margin mode and other things. By default it will use liquidations for isolation margin mode to buy more a slightly above. You can use these levels even for cross mode (buy by calculations for isolation mode, but really have cross configured). If you want to use other levels to buy – please use Concrete Prices field to enter them split by comma, and the script will use it for calculations.
4. A table and lines will help to see more details of how to deal with market. Play around and find a best strategy for you. But please, don't forget to CHECK THE ACCURACY OF CALCULATIONS. This script gives only preliminary number and will never be able to show exact numbers, the REAL LIQUIDATIONS MAY BE MUCH HIGHER then it shows!!!
P.S. I, as an author, do not have any responsibility on your possible losses due to following these ideas. I am using it just like idea and recheck every number. There might be any issues, and you will pay for it with your own money. So please, be mindful while using it.
Hope it will help to make your trading better and way more comfort.
Take care and good luck!

Falcon - Volume & Level reaction Falcon - Volume & Level Reaction
Our indicator, Falcon - Volume & Level Reaction, is designed to provide traders with comprehensive insights into price behavior through the calculation of horizontal volume profiles. By analyzing these profiles, the indicator identifies key levels and assesses price reactions, offering valuable trading signals.
---
# Concept
The Falcon - Volume & Level Reaction indicator is built to help traders identify and capitalize on key market levels by analyzing volume profiles and price behavior. This indicator enhances trading strategies by providing clear signals based on robust analysis, allowing traders to make informed decisions and improve their trading outcomes.
---
# Functions
1. Volume Profile Calculation
- Profile Period: Calculates horizontal volume profiles over a specified number of bars.
- Peak Volumes: Identifies peak volume levels based on the sensitivity parameter.
2. Price Behavior Analysis
- Primary Check: Determines if bars close above or below the peak level.
- Secondary Checks:
- Volume Decrease: Confirms a decrease in volume after the price touches the level.
- Volatility Check: Ensures bars do not exceed the average ATR range.
3. Signal Generation
- Combined Signals: The primary check generates initial long/short signals, while secondary checks strengthen these signals.
- Real-time Alerts: Provides "Potential" short or long signals based on the current candle's closure relative to the level.
4. Comprehensive Analysis: Helps identify multiple factors that validate level protection and potential price reversals.
---
# Description of Checks
1. Primary Check: Price Closure
- This check assesses whether the bars close above or below the identified peak volume levels. If the price closes above the level, it generates a long signal; if it closes below, it generates a short signal. This check is fundamental as it directly indicates the price's interaction with significant volume levels.
2. Secondary Check 1: Volume Decrease
- After the price touches a peak volume level, this check verifies if there is a subsequent decrease in trading volume. A decrease in volume after touching the level suggests reduced market interest at that price, which can indicate potential reversals or continuations based on the overall market context.
3. Secondary Check 2: Volatility Check
- This check ensures that the price bars do not exceed the average ATR range after touching the peak volume level. Lower volatility near key levels indicates stability and strengthens the signal generated by the primary check, confirming the market's reaction to these levels.
---
# How to Use the Indicator
1. Set Parameters: Define volume profile parameters such as profile period, number of peaks, and level sensitivity.
2. Analyze the Chart: Observe the peak volume levels displayed on the chart.
3. Receive Signals: Follow the buy or sell signals that appear when the price touches the level and the primary and secondary checks are met.
4. Respond to Alerts: When a "Potential" long or short signal appears, evaluate the closure of the current candle relative to the level to make a trading decision.

Effort & Result (normalized)It is recommended to use a column display. This indicator measures the relationship between the body of the candlestick and the volume. Therefore, it measures the relationship between effort (volume) and result (price). It is still necessary to contextualize the price and not use the indicator without considering structure or relevant zones.
As we can see, this is an oscillator that ranges from 100 to -100 and helps visualize Volume Spread Analysis.
It can indicate three different types of relationships between candlesticks and volume:
1. Absorption : This is a significant discrepancy that shows that despite considerable effort in terms of volume, there has not been an adequate price result. High volume and little price movement. It can be detected when the indicator values are negative, and the closer to -100, the more pronounced the absorption. It indicates strong aggressive participation, but equally strong passive participation. It should be interpreted as an opposite signal; if the candlestick closes long with absorption, then it is likely that the bullish movement will not continue.
2. Absence of Resistance : This is a discrepancy that occurs when, despite low volumetric effort, there is a significant price movement. This is due to the absence of passive orders and is exactly the opposite of absorption. It is measured when the indicator value is positive. It means that a wide buy candlestick with low volume has not encountered resistance from passive sellers during its path, and vice versa for a sell candlestick. It should be interpreted as a "green light"; therefore, a buy candlestick that closes with a positive value in the indicator signals a likely price increase shortly thereafter.
3. Congruence : When the indicator value is close to 0, a situation of congruence occurs, where the result (price) is adequate to the effort (volumes). This indicates an efficient market with balanced participation from sellers and buyers, both passive and aggressive.
The pattern shown in the figure illustrates in the first line a sell candlestick with a very small body but a very high volumetric effort. Indeed, the corresponding column in the indicator shows negative values ("Absorption"). The second line shows how, after a few minutes, an "Absence of Resistance" situation occurs, this time for a buy candlestick that, despite low volumes, closed with a very wide body, in fact the indicator shows positive values. This specific pattern should be read as a long signal since sellers have been absorbed by passive buyers, and buyers have not encountered resistance from passive sellers. This indicates greater coordination and participation from both aggressive and passive buyers.
VWAP Bands [UAlgo]The "VWAP Bands " indicator is designed to provide traders with valuable insights into market trends and potential support/resistance levels using Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) bands. This indicator integrates the core concepts of VWAP with additional trend analysis features, making it a versatile tool for both range trading and trend-following strategies.
The VWAP bands are plotted based on the standard deviation multipliers, creating upper and lower bands around the VWAP. These bands serve as dynamic support and resistance levels. When the price approaches these bands, traders can anticipate potential reversals or continuations of the current trend. Additionally, the indicator provides visual cues for trend strength and potential trend changes, helping traders make informed decisions in various market conditions.
🔶 Settings
Source (Data Source): The data source for VWAP calculations. The default setting is the typical price (HLC3), which is the average of the high, low, and close prices.
Length: The number of bars used in the VWAP calculation. This determines the lookback period for the indicator.
Standard Deviation Multiplier: The multiplier applied to the standard deviation to create the primary upper and lower VWAP bands. This setting controls the distance of the bands from the VWAP.
Secondary Standard Deviation Multiplier: The multiplier applied to the standard deviation to create the secondary upper and lower VWAP bands, providing additional levels of support and resistance.
Display Trend: A toggle to enable or disable the display of the trend analysis feature. When enabled, the indicator highlights trend strength and potential trend changes.
Display Trend Crossovers: A toggle to enable or disable the display of trend crossover signals. When enabled, the indicator plots shapes to indicate where trend switches are likely occurring.
🔶 Calculations
The calculations behind the "VWAP Bands " indicator begin with determining the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP), which provides a comprehensive view of the average price of an asset, weighted by trading volume. This gives a more accurate representation of the asset's true average price over a specified period.
The first step in this process involves summing the trading volume over a chosen period, typically represented by the length parameter. Simultaneously, the product of the price (usually an average of the high, low, and close prices) and the trading volume is calculated and summed. By dividing this cumulative price-volume product by the total volume, we obtain the VWAP value. This VWAP serves as the central anchor around which the price action oscillates.
To enhance the utility of VWAP, we introduce standard deviation calculations. Standard deviation measures the extent of price dispersion from the VWAP, providing insight into price volatility. By calculating the variance (which involves the squared deviations of price) and then taking its square root, we derive the standard deviation. This helps in understanding how far prices typically stray from the VWAP.
With the VWAP and standard deviation in hand, we then establish upper and lower bands by adding and subtracting multiples of the standard deviation from the VWAP. These bands act as dynamic support and resistance levels, adapting to changes in market volatility. The primary bands, set by the first standard deviation multiplier, are augmented by secondary bands defined by a larger multiplier, offering additional layers of potential support and resistance.
It also integrates trend analysis, highlighting areas where the price action suggests a strong or weak trend. This is achieved by overlaying colored zones above and below the bands, indicating the strength and direction of the trend. When the price crosses these bands, it signals potential trend changes, aiding traders in making timely decisions.
🔶 Disclaimer
The "VWAP Bands " indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only. It is not intended as financial advice and should not be construed as such.
Trading involves significant risk and may not be suitable for all investors. Before using this indicator or making any investment decisions, it is important to conduct thorough research and consider your financial situation.
COT IndexReference:
Trade Stocks and Commodities with the Insiders
Secrets of the COT Report by Larry Williams pg34
The equation is as below:
Current week's value- Lowest value of last three years
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- X 100%
Highest high of last three years-Lowest low of last three years
According to Larry Williams, traders should follow commercials direction. When the commercial index line (yellow line) is above 80, this indicates commercials are bullish. Hence, traders can look for potential buy setup. Conversely, when commercials index line (yellow line) is below 20, this indicates commercials are bearish, we can look for sell setup.
Do note that this is only applicable on Weekly chart as COT reports come out on weekly basis.
Modification from the original COT index from Larry Williams:
1) I've added 1year and 6months period, so traders maybe can look for pullback using shorter period. By default, Larry Williams uses 3 years Commercial index.
2) I've added non-commercials and retail traders index, they basically trade opposite way of commercials.
This indicator should not be used as a timing tool or entry tool, you can use it as your weekly or monthly bias tool. For more information, please read the books. Feel free to modify the code, if u have a better version of this, you may share to me if you want, I will be very grateful!
Matt Liq LinesIndicator Overview
The "Matt Liq Lines" indicator is designed to help traders identify significant price levels where high-volume trading occurred. These levels are often referred to as liquidation levels and can act as support or resistance in the market. The indicator plots horizontal lines on the chart at these identified levels, helping traders make informed decisions based on volume spikes.
Key Features
Volume Multiplier: A user-defined threshold to identify high-volume candles. If a candle's volume is greater than the average volume multiplied by this multiplier, it is considered a high-volume candle.
Lookback Period: The period over which the average volume is calculated. This helps in smoothing out volume data to identify significant spikes.
Max Levels: The maximum number of liquidation levels to display on the chart. This helps in keeping the chart clean and focuses on the most relevant levels.
Indicator Components
Average Volume Calculation:
avgVolume = ta.sma(volume, lookbackPeriod)
Calculates the simple moving average (SMA) of the volume over the specified lookback period.
High Volume Identification:
highVolume = volume > (avgVolume * volumeMultiplier)
Identifies if the current candle's volume is greater than the average volume multiplied by the volume multiplier.
Liquidation Levels Storage:
Uses arrays to store the levels, their corresponding bar indices, and volumes.
Adding Liquidation Levels:
When a high-volume candle is identified, its open price is added as a liquidation level. If the maximum number of levels is exceeded, the oldest level is removed to make room for the new one.
Cleaning Levels:
A function f_clean_levels removes crossed levels (where the price has already moved above and below the level) and keeps the levels with the highest volumes.
Plotting Liquidation Lines:
Horizontal lines are drawn at the identified liquidation levels. These lines extend to the right and help traders visualize important price levels.
How to Use the Indicator
Set the Volume Multiplier: Adjust the volume multiplier to filter out minor volume spikes and focus on significant ones.
Adjust the Lookback Period: Set a lookback period that reflects the typical trading volume for the asset you are analyzing.
Configure Max Levels: Decide the number of levels you want to display on the chart to avoid clutter.
Interpret the Lines: Use the plotted lines as potential support or resistance levels. These lines indicate where significant trading activity has occurred, which could influence future price movements.
By following these steps and understanding the indicator's components, traders can effectively use the "Matt Liq Lines" indicator to identify key price levels influenced by high trading volumes, aiding in better decision-making
DTB

This indicator is suitable for all timeframes and can be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools to enhance your trading strategy.
Volume-Adjusted Bollinger BandsThe Volume-Adjusted Bollinger Bands (VABB) indicator is an advanced technical analysis tool that enhances the traditional Bollinger Bands by incorporating volume data. This integration allows the bands to dynamically adjust based on market volume, providing a more nuanced view of price movements and volatility. The key qualities of the VABB indicator include:
1. Dynamic Adjustment with Volume: Traditional Bollinger Bands are based solely on price data and standard deviations. The VABB indicator adjusts the width of the bands based on the volume ratio, making them more responsive to changes in market activity. This means that during periods of high volume, the bands will expand, and during periods of low volume, they will contract. This adjustment helps to reinforce the significance of price movements relative to the central line (VWMA).
2. Volume-Weighted Moving Average (VWMA): Instead of using a simple moving average (SMA) as the central line, the VABB uses the VWMA, which weights prices by volume. This provides a more accurate representation of the average price level, considering the trading volume.
3. Enhanced Signal Reliability: By incorporating volume, the VABB can filter out false signals that might occur in low-volume conditions. This makes the indicator particularly useful for identifying significant price movements that are supported by strong trading activity.
How to Use and Interpret the VABB Indicator
To use the VABB indicator, you need to set it up on your trading platform with the following parameters:
1. BB Length: The number of periods for calculating the Bollinger Bands (default is 20).
2. BB Multiplier: The multiplier for the standard deviation to set the width of the Bollinger Bands (default is 2.0).
3. Volume MA Length: The number of periods for calculating the moving average of the volume (default is 14).
Volume Ratio Smoothing Length: The number of periods for smoothing the volume ratio (default is 5).
Interpretation
1.Trend Identification: The VWMA serves as the central line. When the price is above the VWMA, it indicates an uptrend, and when it is below, it indicates a downtrend. The direction of the VWMA itself can also signal the trend's strength.
2. Volatility and Volume Analysis: The width of the VABB bands reflects both volatility and volume. Wider bands indicate high volatility and/or high volume, suggesting significant price movements. Narrower bands indicate low volatility and/or low volume, suggesting consolidation.
3. Trading Signals:
Breakouts: A price move outside the adjusted upper or lower bands can signal a potential breakout. High volume during such moves reinforces the breakout's validity.
Reversals: When the price touches or crosses the adjusted upper band, it may indicate overbought conditions, while touching or crossing the adjusted lower band may indicate oversold conditions. These conditions can signal potential reversals, especially if confirmed by other indicators or volume patterns.
Volume Confirmation: The volume ratio component helps confirm the strength of price movements. For instance, a breakout accompanied by a high volume ratio is more likely to be sustained than one with a low volume ratio.
Practical Example
Bullish Scenario: If the price crosses above the adjusted upper band with a high volume ratio, it suggests a strong bullish breakout. Traders might consider entering a long position, setting a stop-loss just below the VWMA or the lower band.
Bearish Scenario: Conversely, if the price crosses below the adjusted lower band with a high volume ratio, it suggests a strong bearish breakout. Traders might consider entering a short position, setting a stop-loss just above the VWMA or the upper band.
Conclusion
The Volume-Adjusted Bollinger Bands (VABB) indicator is a powerful tool that enhances traditional Bollinger Bands by incorporating volume data. This dynamic adjustment helps traders better understand market conditions and make more informed trading decisions. By using the VABB indicator, traders can identify significant price movements supported by volume, improving the reliability of their trading signals.
The Volume-Adjusted Bollinger Bands (VABB) indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only. It is not financial advice and should not be construed as a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any financial instrument. Trading involves significant risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

Practical Application of VWAP Bands
Understanding VWAP
VWAP is a trading benchmark that calculates the average price a security has traded at throughout the day based on volume and price. It is primarily used for intraday trading but can also offer insights during end-of-day reviews.
Using VWAP for Trading
Intraday Trading
Entry and Exit Points: VWAP can help identify optimal buy and sell points. Buy when the price is above VWAP and sell when it's below.
Support and Resistance: VWAP often acts as a dynamic support/resistance level. Prices tend to revert to VWAP, making it a crucial level for intraday traders.
Trend Confirmation
Uptrends and Downtrends: In an uptrend, the price will generally stay above VWAP. Conversely, in a downtrend, it will stay below. Use this to confirm market direction.
Combining with Other Indicators
Moving Averages and Bollinger Bands: Combining VWAP with these indicators can provide a more robust trading signal, confirming trends and potential reversals.
Setting Stop-Loss and Profit Targets
Conservative Stop Orders: Place stop orders at recent lows for pullback trades.
Profit Targets: Use daily highs or Fibonacci extension levels to set profit targets.
Strategies for Using VWAP
Pullback Strategy
Buy during pullbacks to VWAP in an uptrend, and sell during rallies to VWAP in a downtrend.
Breakout Strategy
Look for breakouts above/below VWAP after the market open to capitalize on new trends.
Momentum Trading
Use VWAP to confirm the strength of a trend. Buy when the price is consistently above VWAP and sell when it's consistently below.
Institutional Strategies
Institutional traders use VWAP to execute large orders without causing significant market impact, ensuring trades are made around the average price.
By incorporating these strategies, traders can better understand market dynamics, make informed trading decisions, and manage their risk effectively.
Some setup possibilities
Multi Exchange Relative Volume IndicatorThe Multi Exchange Relative Volume indicator is a powerful tool designed to visualize the relative volume across different exchanges.

Volatility Volume IndicatorIntroducing the Volatility Volume Indicator (𝓥𝓥𝓘) , a sophisticated tool designed to provide traders and investors with deeper insights into market dynamics by analyzing the interplay between price movements and trading volume. This indicator, built with the latest Pine Script version 5, leverages advanced calculations to deliver a clear, visual representation of market volatility and volume trends. Whether you are a day trader looking for intraday opportunities or a long-term investor seeking to understand market behavior, the 𝓥𝓥𝓘 is an invaluable addition to your trading arsenal.
Explanation of the Logic
The Volatility Volume Indicator (𝓥𝓥𝓘) is constructed on a foundation of key market metrics: high, low, open, and close prices, along with volume data. It begins by breaking down each price bar into its upper, lower, and body components, which are then used to calculate the proportional contributions of these segments to the overall price movement. This analysis allows the indicator to distinguish between different types of price action, whether bullish or bearish.
Volume normalization is a crucial aspect of the 𝓥𝓥𝓘, where the current volume is compared against its exponential moving average to gauge relative volume strength. This normalized volume is then used to compute bullish and bearish volumes separately, providing a granular view of market sentiment. These volumes are smoothed over a specified period to reduce noise and highlight significant trends.
The volatility component of the 𝓥𝓥𝓘 is integrated by analyzing the relationship between price range and volume. The indicator calculates the range of each price bar (the difference between the high and low) and breaks it down into upper and lower segments relative to the open and close prices. By examining how much of the total price movement is due to the body of the candlestick versus the wicks, the 𝓥𝓥𝓘 can determine periods of high and low volatility. When combined with volume data, this approach provides a comprehensive view of how volatile price movements are supported or contradicted by trading volume.
The final output is a visual plot that color-codes the combined volume difference, offering clear signals based on the balance between bullish and bearish pressures. The bar coloring adds another layer of interpretation:
Bright Blue: Indicates strong volume and volatility to the upside, signaling robust bullish activity.
Dark Blue: Indicates weak volume and volatility to the upside, suggesting less intense bullish movements.
Dark Red: Indicates weak volume and volatility to the downside, pointing to subdued bearish activity.
Bright Red: Indicates strong volume and volatility to the downside, highlighting significant bearish pressure.
Use Cases for This Indicator in Trading and Investing
The 𝓥𝓥𝓘 is versatile and can be applied in various trading and investing scenarios. Day traders can use it to identify periods of high volatility and volume, which are often associated with potential breakout or breakdown points. By understanding the underlying volume dynamics, traders can make more informed decisions about entry and exit points, improving their chances of capturing significant price moves.
For swing traders and long-term investors, the 𝓥𝓥𝓘 helps in spotting sustained trends and potential reversals. By analyzing the cumulative bullish and bearish volumes, investors can better gauge market sentiment and the strength of ongoing trends. This can aid in confirming the viability of trend-following strategies or in identifying overbought or oversold conditions, thus enhancing risk management and strategic planning.
Main flaw :
Why Do I Keep It Closed Source
The decision to keep the Volatility Volume Indicator (𝓥𝓥𝓘) closed source stems from several important considerations. First and foremost, this indicator encapsulates a unique methodology and proprietary calculations that differentiate it from other tools available in the market. By keeping the source code private, we protect the intellectual property and maintain the competitive edge that this sophisticated analysis provides.
Additionally, a closed-source approach ensures that the integrity of the indicator remains intact. Users can trust that the 𝓥𝓥𝓘 they are using is free from unauthorized modifications or errors introduced by third-party alterations. This guarantees consistent performance and reliability, which is critical for making accurate trading and investing decisions. Finally, keeping the code closed source allows for controlled updates and enhancements, ensuring that users always have access to the most refined and effective version of the indicator.
Volume OscillatorThe Volume Oscillator is a powerful tool for analyzing volume dynamics and identifying potential divergences and trend confirmations. This indicator combines multiple volume analysis techniques to provide a comprehensive view of market participation and potential turning points.
At its core, the Volume Oscillator calculates a custom volume delta, taking into account the true range of each candle. The volume delta is adjusted based on the relationship between the open and close prices, assigning a higher weight to the candle body when the close is higher than the open. This approach captures the nuances of buying and selling pressure within each candle.
The cumulative volume delta is then calculated using one of three user-selectable methods: On-Balance Volume (OBV), Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD), or Price-Volume Trend (PVT). These options allow traders to choose the volume accumulation method that best suits their analysis style.
The Volume Oscillator plots the difference between two exponential moving averages (EMAs) of the selected cumulative volume. The short-term EMA length and long-term EMA length can be customized by the user, providing flexibility to adapt to different trading timeframes and market conditions.
A key feature of this indicator is the divergence detection. It identifies bullish and bearish divergences between the Volume Oscillator and price action. Bullish divergence occurs when the oscillator forms a higher low while the price forms a lower low, suggesting potential buying pressure. Conversely, bearish divergence occurs when the oscillator forms a lower high while the price forms a higher high, indicating potential selling pressure. The divergence detection algorithm uses a configurable lookback range and pivot point detection to improve the accuracy of divergence signals.
The indicator also incorporates a signal line, which is an EMA of the Volume Oscillator. Crossovers between the Volume Oscillator and the signal line provide additional confirmation of potential trend changes. Bullish crossovers occur when the oscillator crosses above the signal line, while bearish crossovers occur when the oscillator crosses below the signal line.
To enhance the reliability of crossover signals, the indicator utilizes deviation bands based on the average volume delta. Bullish crossovers are confirmed when the signal line is below the lower deviation band, and the Volume Oscillator is negative. Bearish crossovers are confirmed when the signal line is above the upper deviation band, and the Volume Oscillator is positive.
The Volume Oscillator employs a dynamic color scheme to visually represent the strength and direction of the oscillator. The color gradually changes based on the normalized gradient between two colors, providing an intuitive view of the oscillator's momentum.
Customization options include:
- Short and long EMA lengths for the Volume Oscillator calculation
- Cumulative volume type (OBV, CVD, or PVT)
- Signal line length
- Divergence detection parameters (lookback range and pivot point settings)
This indicator is designed to be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and should not be relied upon as a standalone trading system. It is intended to provide insights into volume dynamics and potential trend changes, aiding in the decision-making process for professional traders.
Please note that this indicator is a complex tool that requires a solid understanding of volume analysis and technical analysis concepts. It is recommended to thoroughly test and validate the indicator's performance in different market conditions and timeframes before incorporating it into a live trading strategy.
