Gold Sniper MGC1! - M30 Precision vPOCThis Pine Script, titled "Gold Sniper MGC1! - M30 Precision vPOC," is a high-precision intraday trading tool designed specifically for Micro Gold (MGC1!) futures. It integrates Market Profile and Volume Profile logic to identify key institutional levels across various trading sessions.
Core Functionality
The script identifies and plots the Volume Point of Control (vPOC)—the price level with the highest traded volume—for specific time windows:
P.vPOC (Previous vPOC): Calculated using a Daily VWAP sync to align perfectly with institutional data from the previous day.
vPOC Today: Tracks the developing Point of Control for the current global session (18:00 - 17:00).
Killzone vPOCs: Specifically isolates the highest volume price levels for the Asia (02h-08h), London (08h-14h), and New York (14h-17h) sessions.
Key Technical Features
Institutional Alignment: By utilizing request.security and hl2 median price calculations on a 30-minute basis, the script filters out market noise and aligns with the structural levels used by "Smart Money".
Dynamic Labels (Vignettes): Each level is projected to the right of the price action with a color-coded label. These labels dynamically display both the Level Name and the Exact Price (to two decimal places), facilitating rapid order entry.
Visual Hierarchy:
Black (Solid): Previous Day's Value (P.vPOC).
White (Dotted): Current Day's Developing Value.
Gold/Cyan/Orange: Specific Killzone session values.
Strategic Application
This script serves as the "Map" for the Gold Sniper MGC1! strategy. Traders use these levels to identify Liquidity Sweeps or Market Structure Shifts (MSS). When the price interacts with these vPOCs, it often signals institutional rejection or acceptance, providing high-probability entry points for intraday "Sniper" setups.
VIX-SPX Quant Pro SystemQuantitative Analysis of Historical VIX Dynamics and Daily Predictive Frameworks for Volatility ForecastingThe financial ecosystem of the twenty-first century is increasingly governed by the measurement and management of risk, with the Cboe Volatility Index (VIX) serving as the primary benchmark for expected equity market turbulence.1 Originally proposed in the late 1980s by financial economists Menachem Brenner and Dan Galai, the concept of a "Sigma Index" was intended to provide a standardized, frequently updated measure of volatility that could facilitate the creation of futures and options for hedging purposes.3 In 1993, the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) implemented this vision, launching the VIX based on the implied volatility of eight S&P 100 at-the-money options series.1 The subsequent transformation of the VIX in 2003—shifting its underlying to the S&P 500 (SPX) and adopting a model-free methodology developed in conjunction with Goldman Sachs—marked its transition into the "fear gauge" recognized today by market participants worldwide.2Understanding the movement of the VIX historically and developing an equation to predict its daily levels requires a deep synthesis of data infrastructure, mathematical modeling, and an appreciation for the structural mechanics of the options market. The index does not measure historical or statistical volatility in the traditional sense; rather, it reflects the market's expectation of 30-day forward-looking volatility, as conveyed by current SPX option prices.5 This predictive capacity stems from the fact that implied volatility represents the consensus view of professional traders regarding the probability and magnitude of future price movements, adjusted for the insurance premiums they are willing to pay for downside protection.8Historical Data Infrastructure and Tracking MethodologiesTo track VIX movement historically with high fidelity, an analyst must rely on robust data pipelines that provide not only the index levels but also the underlying components of its calculation. Financial time-series data is prone to gaps, timestamp inconsistencies, and errors in Open-High-Low-Close (OHLC) reporting, necessitating the use of specialized vendors that normalize these datasets.10Evaluative Framework for Historical Data ProvidersHistorical tracking of the VIX is most effective when utilizing APIs that offer long-term datasets with high granular resolution. The choice of provider often dictates the scope of analysis, with some catering to end-of-day (EOD) historical research while others provide the tick-level detail required for high-frequency algorithmic modeling.10API ProviderData DepthFrequency SupportBest ForTagX Stock Market API10+ Years1m, 5m, 15m, EODQuant research and backtesting 10EOD Historical Data (EODHD)30+ YearsEOD, 1m, 5m, 1hLong-term trend analysis 11Polygon.ioReal-time & HistTick-level, 1m, EODU.S. algorithmic trading 10Alpha Vantage20+ YearsDaily, IntradayPrototyping and academics 10Yahoo Finance (yfinance)VariableDaily, WeeklyQuick prototyping/casual use 11DatabentoExtensiveHigh-frequency tickLow-latency precisive analysis 11FRED (St. Louis Fed)Since 1990Daily CloseMacroeconomic modeling 16Beyond the broad providers, official sources like the CBOE DataShop provide the most authoritative historical files, including EOD calculation inputs from May 9, 2022, to the present.17 These files contain every strike price, weight, and contribution used to derive the last published VIX value of each day, which is critical for those seeking to understand why the index moved during specific volatility regimes.17 For researchers investigating older data, the St. Louis Fed’s FRED database maintains the VIXCLS series, providing daily closing values dating back to January 1990, alongside historical data for other volatility benchmarks.4The VIX Calculation Methodology: A Deep DiveThe ability to predict VIX levels daily relies on a fundamental understanding of its mechanical derivation. Contrary to common misconceptions, the VIX is not calculated using the Black-Scholes-Merton model to solve for individual implied volatilities.19 Instead, it employs a model-free formula that captures a weighted sum of variance estimates across a broad range of strike prices.19Mathematical Formula and Strike SelectionThe VIX methodology targets a constant 30-day maturity by interpolating between two tenors of SPX options.19 These "near-term" and "next-term" expirations must have more than 23 days and less than 37 days to maturity.7The core equation for the variance of each tenor ($\sigma^2$) is expressed as:$$\sigma^2 = \frac{2}{T} \sum_i \frac{\Delta K_i}{K_i^2} e^{RT} Q(K_i) - \frac{1}{T} \left( \frac{F}{K_0} - 1 \right)^2$ BMV:IN this calculation:$T$ is the time to expiration (calculated precisely in minutes).19$F$ is the forward index level derived from option prices.7$K_i$ is the strike price of the $i^{th}$ out-of-the-money (OTM) option.19$\Delta K_i$ is the strike price interval, calculated as half the difference between the strikes on either side of $K_i$.20$Q(K_i)$ is the midpoint of the bid-ask quote for strike $K_i$.7$R$ is the risk-free interest rate.19$K_0$ is the first strike price below the forward index level $F$.19Once the variances for the two tenors are calculated, they are linearly interpolated to find the 30-day variance, the square root of which is multiplied by 100 to yield the VIX index value.19Historical Dynamics: Mean Reversion and Asymmetric CorrelationThe development of predictive equations must be grounded in the structural behavior of volatility. The VIX possesses two distinct characteristics that differentiate it from traditional equity assets: it is bounded at both ends and demonstrates powerful mean reversion.26The Central Tendency PrincipleThe VIX gravitates toward a long-term average of approximately 19.5.23 Statistical research establishes that in any given month, the VIX tends to move about 30% of the distance between its current level and its long-term average.30 This "speed of mean reversion" is a critical constant in predictive equations, as it provides a directional bias when volatility deviates significantly from the norm.8The Inverse Correlation with EquitiesThe relationship between the S&P 500 and the VIX is strongly negative, with a historical correlation coefficient typically ranging from -0.70 to -0.80.27 This link is essentially a reflection of the "leverage effect," where price declines increase financial risk and investor fear, driving up option premiums.33 Interestingly, while the two move in opposite directions 80% of the time, the remaining 20% often features positive co-movement.34Technical Roadmaps and Actionable Calculation RulesFor intraday SPX trading on the 3-minute timeframe, mathematical findings can be translated into the following actionable study logic:Rule 1: The "Rule of 16" Intraday RangeThe Rule of 16 converts annualized VIX into a daily expected move by dividing the VIX level by 16.35 For a 3-minute timeframe, this expectation must be scaled by the square root of the number of bars in a trading day (130 bars for a standard 390-minute session):$$Expected Move_{Bar} = \frac{VIX}{16 \cdot \sqrt{Bars_{Day}}}$ MIL:IF the current SPX candle breaks outside these dynamic bands, it signals an "excess volatility" event likely driven by institutional hedging flow.35Rule 2: VIX/VXV Ratio ExhaustionThe spread between 1-month and 3-month volatility identifies when fear is overextended.33Warning Zone (Short SPX): Ratio > 1.0 (Short-term fear > Long-term expectation).38Exhaustion Zone (Long SPX): Ratio > 1.25 (Near-term panic is at its zenith).38Rule 3: Bollinger Band "Rubber Band" ReversionWhen the VIX stretches more than 30% above its 20-period moving average and closes back inside its upper Bollinger Band, it signals a "snap back" where equity prices typically rally as fear recedes.Pine Script V6: Actionable VIX-SPX Signal System (Overlay)This script implements the findings as an overlay for the S&P 500 (SPX) chart. It provides Long/Short ✖ crosses and dynamic "Expected Move" bands based on the VIX.

Liquidity Sweep Guardian (Universal % or point based)
Liquidity Sweep Guardian - Complete User Guide
## Overview
The **Liquidity Sweep Guardian** is a visual warning system designed to prevent premature counter-trend trades (fades) near Previous Day High (PDH) and Previous Day Low (PDL) levels. This indicator helps you avoid one of the most common trading mistakes: fading too early before liquidity sweeps complete.
---
## 🎯 Core Trading Principle
### **THE GOLDEN RULE: Don't Fade Until It's Unlocked**
Price often **accelerates into key levels** to sweep liquidity before reversing. Trading against this momentum is extremely dangerous.
**The Process:**
1. **Danger Zone** (Red/White Box) = ⚠️ **DO NOT FADE** - Sweep likely incoming
2. **Sweep Occurs** (Triangle marker appears) = Price penetrates the level
3. **Reclaim Happens** (Price returns above/below level) = Level is tested
4. **🔓 UNLOCKED** (Gold border, green label) = **NOW you may CONSIDER a fade**
> **Important:** "UNLOCKED" means you may now *consider* a fade setup. It is NOT a trade signal itself. You still need your entry confirmation, risk management, and trade plan.
---
## 📊 Visual Elements Explained
### 1. **Danger Zone Boxes (Red Border by Default)**
**Two types of zones around PDH/PDL:**
- **Outer Danger Zone** (White fill): ±75pts (or 0.30%) around the level
- Indicates proximity to a key level where sweeps commonly occur
- Yellow/cautious trading zone
- **Inner Critical Zone** (Black fill): ±25pts (or 0.10%) around the level
- Highest probability area for liquidity sweep traps
- Avoid fading here at all costs
**What to do:**
- When price enters these zones, **wait and watch**
- Do not initiate counter-trend positions
- Allow the sweep to play out
### 2. **Unlocked Zones (Gold Border #ffeb3b)**
When a zone turns **gold/yellow** with green fill:
- The level has been swept AND reclaimed
- The liquidity grab is complete
- You may now look for fade opportunities with proper confirmation
### 3. **PDH/PDL Lines**
- **PDH Line** (Red): Previous Day High with price label
- **PDL Line** (Green): Previous Day Low with price label
- These are your key reference levels for the session
### 4. **Sweep Labels**
**Triangle Markers (SWEEP):**
- **Green Triangle** = Clean sweep (10-25pts penetration)
- **Orange Triangle** = Extended sweep (25-50pts penetration)
- **Red Triangle** = Deep penetration (50+ pts) - likely continuation, not reversal
**Warning Labels:**
- **⚠️ DEEP CONTINUATION?** = Penetration too deep, probably NOT a reversal setup
**Unlock Labels:**
- **🔓 LONG UNLOCKED** = PDL swept and reclaimed, may consider long fades
- **🔓 SHORT UNLOCKED** = PDH swept and reclaimed, may consider short fades

## 🎓 Trading Strategy Examples
### **Example 1: Long Setup at PDL**
1. **Morning**: Price approaches PDL (danger zone appears)
2. **Don't Fade Yet**: Price enters critical zone - resist urge to buy
3. **Sweep**: Price drops 15pts below PDL (green triangle appears)
4. **Reclaim**: Price closes back above PDL within 3 bars
5. **🔓 UNLOCKED**: Gold border + "LONG UNLOCKED" label appears
6. **Trade Setup**: Now look for bullish confirmation (order flow, structure, etc.)
### **Example 2: Avoiding a Trap at PDH**
1. **Afternoon**: Price rallies into PDH danger zone
2. **Temptation**: You want to short here (it "looks toppy")
3. **Sweep**: Price breaks 50pts above PDH (red triangle + ⚠️ warning)
4. **Continuation**: Deep penetration suggests continuation, not reversal
5. **Result**: No unlock occurs, price keeps running higher - trap avoided!
### **Example 3: Failed Unlock (No Trade)**
1. Price sweeps PDL by 12pts (green triangle)
2. Price struggles to reclaim PDL, stays below for 10+ bars
3. No "UNLOCKED" label appears
4. **Correct Action**: Do not fade - sweep failed to reclaim

Cave Diving 3 Lines System
🤿 Cave Diving Dashboard - A Deep Dive into Market Structure
## The Cave Diving Analogy
Imagine you're a cave diver exploring underwater caverns. As you descend deeper, you encounter different layers of the cave system:
- **The Surface (Internal Levels)** - Where you currently are, constantly shifting with each breath
- **The First Chamber (De Novo Levels)** - Your last known safe position, recently established
- **Deep Caverns (External Levels)** - Ancient, untouched chambers deeper in the system
Just as a cave diver must constantly monitor their position relative to these reference points, traders must track price action against key structural levels.
---
## 🎯 Understanding the Three-Tiered System
### 📍 **INTERNAL LEVELS** (Current 15m Candle)
*Your real-time position in the market*
**Internal High** 🟡 - The highest point reached in the current unfinished 15-minute candle
**Internal Low** 🟢 - The lowest point reached in the current unfinished 15-minute candle
**Think of these as:**
- Your current depth while actively diving
- They update continuously as price moves
- Status shows "Updating" when actively changing, "Intact" when stable
- These are NOT trade levels—they're awareness zones
**Key Insight:** When Internal Low drops below De Novo Low, you're in **Situation A** (bearish pressure building)—the indicator highlights this with red coloring.
---
### 🎯 **DE NOVO LEVELS** (Previous Closed 15m Candle)
*Your most recent confirmed safe zone*
**De Novo High** 🔵 - The high of the last completed 15-minute candle
**De Novo Low** 🟣 - The low of the last completed 15-minute candle
**Etymology:** "De Novo" = Latin for "from new" or "anew"—these are freshly established reference points
**Think of these as:**
- The last solid ground you stood on
- Your most recent confirmed position
- The bridge between where you are (Internal) and where you've been (External)
**Status Tracking:**
- **⬆️ Upgrade** - Level moved favorably (Higher high for resistance, Higher low for support)
- **⬇️ Downgrade** - Level moved unfavorably (Lower high, Lower low)
- **＝ Same** - No structural change from previous candle
**Trading Significance:**
- Primary reference points for intraday structure
- Breaking De Novo levels often signals directional commitment
- Can merge with External Level 1 when they align (shown as "DN🟰Ext1")
---
### ⛽🤿 **EXTERNAL LEVELS** (Unmitigated Historical 15m Levels)
*Deep liquidity pools waiting to be discovered*
**External High 1 & 2** 🟢🔵 - The two most recent unmitigated 15m highs
**External Low 1 & 2** 🟠🌸 - The two most recent unmitigated 15m lows
**Think of these as:**
- Untouched chambers in the cave system
- Liquidity pools that smart money is targeting
- Levels that "remember" and attract price
**What Makes a Level "Unmitigated"?**
- **Highs**: Price has NOT yet traded through them (broken above)
- **Lows**: Price has NOT yet swept them (broken below)
- Once touched, they're "mitigated" and removed from tracking
- The indicator automatically maintains the two most recent unmitigated levels
**Why "External"?**
They exist outside your current candle structure—historical reference points that institutions use for:
- Stop loss placement
- Profit taking targets
- Liquidity hunting zones
---
## 🎨 Color Coding System
### HIGHS (Resistance/Targets) - Cool Colors
- 🔵 **Ext High 2** - Light Blue (Distant target)
- 🟢 **Ext High 1** - Lime Green (Primary target)
- 🔵 **De Novo High** - Cyan (Recent resistance)
- 🟡 **Internal High** - Lemon Yellow (Current ceiling)
### LOWS (Support/Stops) - Warm Colors
- 🟢 **Internal Low** - Lime (Current floor)
- 🟣 **De Novo Low** - Purple (Recent support)
- 🟠 **Ext Low 1** - Orange-Red (Primary stop zone)
- 🌸 **Ext Low 2** - Pink (Distant support)
---
## 📊 Dashboard Breakdown
### The Table Shows:
1. **Level** - Which level you're tracking
2. **Price** - Exact price of the level
3. **Pts** - Distance from current price (+ above, - below)
4. **Status** - Current state or role of the level
### Special Features:
- **⏰ Countdown Timer** - Shows time remaining until next 15m candle close (next De Novo update)
- **⚠️ Proximity Alerts** - Bottom row warns when within threshold distance of key levels (default: 25 points, adjustable)
---
## 🎯 Trading Applications
### **For Buyers (Going Long):**
- **Entry Zone**: Between De Novo Low and Ext Low 1
- **Stops**: Below Ext Low 1 (or Ext Low 2 for wider stops)
- **Targets**: De Novo High → Ext High 1 → Ext High 2
- **Confirmation**: Internal Low holds above De Novo Low
### **For Sellers (Going Short):**
- **Entry Zone**: Between De Novo High and Ext High 1
- **Stops**: Above Ext High 1 (or Ext High 2 for wider stops)
- **Targets**: De Novo Low → Ext Low 1 → Ext Low 2
- **Warning**: Watch for Situation A (Internal Low < De Novo Low)
### **Risk Management:**
- **DN🟰Ext1** status means De Novo = External 1 (tighter range, use caution)
- Proximity alerts help you avoid chasing price into resistance/support
- "Updating" status on Internal levels = active volatility
- "Upgrade/Downgrade" signals = structural shift in progress

## 🧭 The Cave Diving Mindset
**Never dive deeper than you can safely return from.**
In trading terms:
- Know your Internal position (real-time awareness)
- Respect your De Novo levels (recent structure)
- Hunt for External liquidity (where the targets are)
- Always have an exit plan (stops below Ext Lows, above Ext Highs)
The market, like a cave, has structure. This indicator illuminates that structure across three timeframes of reference, helping you navigate with precision rather than guessing in the dark.
---
## 🎓 Key Takeaways
1. **Internal** = Real-time, unfinished, awareness only
2. **De Novo** = Just confirmed, primary reference, updates every 15m
3. **External** = Historical, unmitigated, high-probability targets/stops
4. **Upgrades/Downgrades** = Trend signals
5. **DN🟰Ext1** = Structural alignment (tighter range)
6. **Situation A** = Bearish warning (Internal < De Novo Low)

## 📝 Credits
*"In cave diving, you plan your dive and dive your plan. In trading, you plan your levels and trade your levels."*
**Indicator:** Cave Diving Dashboard - Part 1: Price Levels
**Timeframe:** Optimized for 15-minute structure on any chart timeframe
**Philosophy:** Structure first, price second. Know where you are, where you've been, and where the liquidity waits.

KORVEX TRADING - S&PKORVEX Keylevel Must-Move Trading is a precise approach focused on identifying Must-Move-Levels to generate high-quality trades at clearly defined Keylevels. The strategy targets reversals and pullbacks at prominent Keylevels, resulting in a high hit rate with fewer, but highly qualitative signals.
Core Idea & Market Logic
KORVEX is not a classic continuous-signal indicator, but a targeted Must-Move finder for GOLD, DAX, S&P500, and EURUSD.
The strategy aims to trade reversals and pullbacks at clearly identifiable Keylevels (Daily High/Low, Previous High/Low, Daily Pivot, relevant Fibonacci zones such as 0.5, 0.618, 0.786).
Trading primarily takes place on the M15 timeframe, optionally also on M30 or H1, to find the best combination of signal quality and trading time.
Advantages of the Strategy
Fewer, but high-quality trades instead of continuous trading, which strengthens discipline and focus.
The use of clear Keylevels increases the probability of sustainable moves and reduces the risk of erroneous trades.
Combining technical levels with Fibonacci zones provides an objective decision basis and prevents subjective interpretations.
This approach creates a clear market logic based on quality and precise entries – ideal for traders aiming for sustainable results with fewer, but targeted trades.

REKIK Divergence for Many Indicators avec Filtres CompletsHere is my new year gift for the community, Digergence for Many Indicators v4. I tried to make it modular and readable as much as I can. Thanks to Pine Team for improving Pine Platform all the time!
How it works?
- On each candle it checks divergences between current and any of last 16 Pivot Points for the indicators.
- it search divergence on choisen indicators => RSI , MACD , MACD Histogram, Stochastic , CCI , Momentum, OBV, VWMACD, CMF and any External Indicator!
- it checks following divergences for 16 pivot points that is in last 100 bars for each Indicator.
--> Regular Positive Digergences
--> Regular Negative Digergences
--> Hidden Positive Digergences
--> Hidden Negative Digergences
- for positive divergences first it checks if closing price is higher than last closing price and indicator value is higher than perious value, then start searching divergence
- for negative divergences first it checks if closing price is lower than last closing price and indicator value is lower than perious value, then start searching divergence
Average Trading Range info box (today and historical)One small informational box, in the upper right of your chart to provide trading range information.
Line one (historical) tells you the trading range over a configurable period of time as a $ amount and as a %.
The second line (today) tells you where these values are today and the final line tells you as a %, where the values are today as a percentage of the configurable first line (14 days etc).
The third line changes color when you are 75% of the way to the historical value and red when you are at over 100% of the historical value.
Big DC scripts
Metaltek5_EMA'sThis M5_EMA's script plots the 1,2,3,5,13,50,200,800 EMA's in bright and bold contrasting colors for easy viewing. Each plot can be toggled on/off individually. It can also be run in both the lower indicator and upper overlay sections of the chart.
Enhanced OB [promuckaj]THE ENHANCED ORDER BLOCK
Someone could think what is EOB, it should be just ordinary order block but that’s far from the truth. Sometime the classic order blocks work like a charm, then more often it doesn’t work.
If we expecting lower prices to kick in bearish and we see them create a bullish candle leaving a decent sized wick on the bottom, we want to wait for the next candle to completely close below the bullish candle.
When we see this, it should be our signal to sell the market. When price does this, it is a clear indication that price want to continue lower.
Once EOB is confirmed, look to enter short during the next candles PO3. Usually it’s going to go up but all you need is to wait that very next bar to confirm-respect our new formed EOB.
There is many ways to play this and anticipate some of the liquidity below as your safe TP target. Just imagine to use EOB from HTF on LTF. If you can then this indicator is for you, because it is exactly what is doing, it plots EOB from HTF, with lines that clearly present the last two HTF bars (bars that form the EOB), together with EOB zone of interest – from where we want to see price to pullback and respect the narrative – in this example that we are going down.
So let’s take a look how the same example (30min TF) will be on lower timeframe, for example on 1min.
... or maybe on 30 seconds timeframe.
So let’s try to play this example, with any kind of entry model. For example here we have practically the same scenario, green bar with red closed below, after price tap into EOB zone from HTF.
In this example we can anticipate entry at the pullback in LTF EOB zone, or simply from the FVG formed in the EOB confirmation bar, that is the proof that this zone will hold and push us further lower.
For target as our TP we could use simple internal structure and nearest liquidity left behind.
Easy and quick 4.6R trade.
Or if we would like to go further, this could be even better RR.
Practically almost 10R.
Let’s switch back now to 30min TF, to see how this actually look on respective timeframe of our EOB.
I hope it is more then clear, how this could be used.
There is option to change colors, lines and size of labels, including option to mark the FVG that is a part of EOB, if there is.
Also alerts is there, so you will not miss any new EOB that form on your HTF.
Enjoy !
QTheory [SSMT]QTheory –
This indicator is built on Quarterly Theory (developed by Daye)
🔹 Quarterly Theory
Markets often unfold in repeating quarterly cycles (Q1–Q4) across multiple timeframes — yearly, monthly, weekly, daily, 90-minute, and even micro cycles. By dividing price action into these quarters, traders can better anticipate structural shifts, accumulation/distribution phases, and liquidity runs.
🔹 Sequential SMT (SSMT)
Sequential SMT extends standard SMT (Smart Money Technique) by comparing multiple assets (such as FX majors) to identify divergences across quarters.
🔹 Features of QTheory
Automatic detection of quarterly cycles across multiple timeframes.
Visual cycle boxes & customizable dividers.
Integrated SSMT signals with divergence line visualization.
DFR (Defining Range) with Fibonacci levels.
Support for up to 5 comparison assets, with inversion options.
Auto-cycle selection for seamless multi-timeframe adaptation.
Extensive customization for colors, opacity, and signal display.
🔹 How it works
QTheory divides price data into consistent “quarters” across multiple timeframes. Within each cycle, it tracks highs, lows, and divergences, then overlays this information as boxes, dividers, and optional signals on your chart. Traders can use these visual cues to better align entries and exits with institutional market behavior patterns.
🔹 How to use it
Enable the desired cycle type (e.g., weekly, daily, 90-minute) from the settings.
Toggle boxes, dividers, and signals depending on your trading style.
Use SSMT divergences and DFR Fibs to anticipate a reversal
Compare against other assets (e.g., DXY or correlated pairs) to refine confluence.
Enable "Show Weekends" for Crypto.

SignalViper ReconRecon — Multi-Factor Market State Summary
Recon is a market state synthesis and interpretation tool designed to summarize multiple analytical dimensions into a single, readable overview. Instead of presenting raw indicator values, Recon translates trend, momentum, volume, and structure conditions into descriptive market states.
The goal of Recon is to reduce cognitive load by helping traders quickly understand what type of market they are currently in, not to provide trade signals.
Core Concepts & Logic
Recon evaluates several analytical dimensions commonly used across the SignalViper suite, including:
Trend Structure
Momentum Quality
Volume Participation
Proximity to Key Structural Levels
Each dimension is assessed independently and then combined into a contextual summary that reflects overall market conditions.
Recon does not require other indicators to be loaded on the chart. It performs its own internal evaluation using the same conceptual frameworks.
Narrative Interpretation Layer
Rather than displaying raw numbers or oscillators, Recon converts evaluated conditions into plain-language descriptions, such as:
“Directional momentum strengthening”
“Trend continuation with participation support”
“Structural resistance nearby with weakening momentum”
These descriptions are intended to convey context and risk awareness, not predictions or recommendations.
Indicator Families Used
Recon belongs to the multi-factor regime analysis and interpretation category. It incorporates elements of trend analysis, momentum evaluation, volume-aware context, and structure awareness. Familiar analytical concepts may be present, but Recon’s value lies in how these factors are synthesized and Fletcherized into readable states.
Visual Outputs Explained
Summary Table
Displays the current evaluation of each analytical dimension in one consolidated view.
Color-Coded Status Indicators
Colors are used to reflect alignment, neutrality, or conflict across factors for rapid visual scanning.
Active Warnings
Highlight conditions such as divergence, participation weakening, or structural conflict when detected.
All outputs are informational and reflect the current market state.
How to Use Recon
Recon is designed to be used as a pre-decision context tool. Traders commonly use it to:
Confirm whether market conditions align with their strategy
Identify conflicting signals before entering a trade
Avoid overconfidence during unstable or transitional regimes
It is especially useful when used alongside execution-focused tools, but it can also be used independently as a high-level market overview.
Why This Script Is Invite-Only
Recon’s value comes from how multiple analytical dimensions are evaluated, weighted, and translated into narrative summaries. This interpretation layer significantly reduces the need to mentally reconcile multiple indicators and helps traders maintain consistency during live decision-making.

SignalViper VenomVenom — Volume Pressure & Participation Analysis
Venom is a volume-pressure and participation analysis tool designed to evaluate whether buying or selling pressure is dominating recent price movement. Instead of forecasting direction, Venom focuses on measuring imbalance, agreement, and conflict between price movement and volume behavior.
The script presents this information as an oscillator, helping traders visualize who is exerting pressure and how stable that pressure is over time.
Core Concepts & Logic
Venom evaluates volume activity in relation to price movement to determine relative pressure, not absolute volume levels. Its analysis focuses on:
Buying vs Selling Pressure
Measures whether volume participation favors upward or downward movement.
Pressure Stability
Identifies whether participation is sustained or weakening.
Participation Conflict
Highlights conditions where buying and selling forces are closely balanced.
Based on these factors, Venom classifies pressure into distinct control states.
Indicator Families Used
Venom belongs to the volume-aware momentum and participation family of indicators. It uses volume-weighted evaluation rather than raw volume bars, allowing pressure conditions to be compared consistently across symbols and timeframes.
Visual Outputs Explained
Pressure Oscillator
Displays relative buying or selling pressure:
Cyan tones indicate buying pressure dominance
Magenta tones indicate selling pressure dominance
Control States
BUYERS: volume pressure supports upward movement
SELLERS: volume pressure supports downward movement
CONTESTED: participation is balanced or conflicted
Pressure Signal Line
Acts as a smoothing and confirmation reference to help assess pressure shifts.
Divergence Markers
Appear when price movement and pressure behavior begin to disagree, indicating possible participation exhaustion or transition, not guaranteed reversals.
Information Table
Provides a real-time summary of current pressure direction and control state.
All visuals are directly tied to the underlying pressure evaluation.
Alerts
Venom includes optional alerts for:
Pressure state transitions
Divergence conditions between price and pressure
Alerts are designed to highlight changes in participation context, not to signal trades.
How to Use Venom
Venom is intended as a context and confirmation tool. Traders commonly use it to:
Assess whether price movement is supported by participation
Avoid entries when pressure is conflicted or weakening
Monitor potential exhaustion during extended moves
It pairs naturally with trend, momentum, or structure-based tools to add a participation layer.
Why This Script Is Invite-Only
Venom’s value comes from how volume information is interpreted, normalized, and abstracted into readable pressure states and divergence conditions. This allows traders to assess participation without relying on multiple raw volume indicators or manual interpretation.
