Average Session Range [QuantVue]The Average Session Range or ASR is a tool designed to find the average range of a user defined session over a user defined lookback period.
Not only is this indicator is useful for understanding volatility and price movement tendencies within sessions, but it also plots dynamic support and resistance levels based on the ASR.
The average session range is calculated over a specific period (default 14 sessions) by averaging the range (high - low) for each session.
Knowing what the ASR is allows the user to determine if current price action is normal or abnormal.
When a new session begins, potential support and resistance levels are calculated by breaking the ASR into quartiles which are then added and subtracted from the sessions opening price.
The indicator also shows an ASR label so traders can know what the ASR is in terms of dollars.
Session Time Configuration:
The indicator allows users to define the session time, with default timing set from 13:00 to 22:00.
ASR Calculation:
The ASR is calculated over a specified period (default 14 sessions) by averaging the range (high - low) of each session.
Various levels based on the ASR are computed: 0.25 ASR, 0.5 ASR, 0.75 ASR, 1 ASR, 1.25 ASR, 1.5 ASR, 1.75 ASR, and 2 ASR.
Visual Representation:
The indicator plots lines on the chart representing different ASR levels.
Customize the visibility, color, width, and style (Solid, Dashed, Dotted) of these lines for better visualization.
Labels for these lines can also be displayed, with customizable positions and text properties.
Give this indicator a BOOST and COMMENT your thoughts!
We hope you enjoy.

Volume Quartile IndicatorThe Volume Quartile Indicator is a tool designed to analyze and classify trading volumes based on quartile levels, offering traders a visual means to assess market strength and momentum. This indicator calculates volume levels using a default length of 60 periods to determine the quartiles at 10%, 30%, 50%, 70%, and 90%. Each quartile range is represented by a specific color, providing a clear, visual representation of volume intensity relative to historical data.
Color-Coded Volume Strength: Volume strength is visually represented through a color-coded system for quick and intuitive analysis:
Red: Volume below the 10% level indicates very weak market activity.
Orange: Volume between 10% and 30% signifies weak market activity.
Gray: Volume in the 30% to 50% range represents medium activity with a weak bias.
Silver: Volume between 50% and 70% indicates medium activity with a strong bias.
Blue: Volume in the 70% to 90% range denotes strong market activity.
Green: Volume above the 90% level signifies very strong market activity.
Special Volume Markers: Yellow diamond markers highlight volumes that stand out due to their significance, providing traders with visual cues for potential market entry or exit points.
Q-Lines: The indicator draws q-lines at the 70%, 90%, and the midpoint between these two levels. The convergence of these q-lines suggests potential volatility in volume, which could significantly impact price movements.
The Volume Quartile Classification Indicator is atool for traders looking to incorporate volume analysis into their trading strategy.
Liquidity Trendline With Signals [BigBeluga]The Liquidity Trendline is an indicator designed to identify potential breakouts by utilizing pivot points. These pivotal moments can trigger significant market reactions, either by breaking out or by serving as breakout and retest signals.
🔶 FEATURES
The indicator contains the following features:
Period of the calculation
Padding (spacing between the 2 lines)
Signal for breakouts
🔶 USAGE
As shown in the example, breakouts can be powerful points to see reversions in the market and can lead to a lot of volatility in the market.
When a trendline is broken, a signal will be plotted; the user can disable/enable those signals.
A trendline is formed when 2 consecutive pivot points are found, each of them lower or higher than the previous one. this is the anchor point for our trend line that we will use to spot rejection or breakouts
The delay in the creation of those trend lines will be the period input used to find the pivot point on the chart.
Another good example is using these trendlines as simple retests.
Prices bouncing on top of them will suggest a possible continuation of the current trend.
We can filter out stronger breakouts by looking at how many times the price has rejected the trendline, more rejections will result in more liquidity once the price breaks it.
Signals are plotted on the chart for every breakout that happens.
Another good utility is simply using them as retest once the price breaks those levels and holding above/below them, indicating a possible support or resistance area used for confluence
Here is another good example of how we can correctly spot price deviating from our trendline and spotting powerful continuation in price.
As said before we can filter out bad and good breakouts simply by looking at how many times rejected from those levels.
More rejection will result in a stronger reaction
🔶 CONCLUSION
This script is as simple as that and can be used in a few ways to spot reversals, price continuation, or even sentiment in price (bullish or bearish).
[blackcat] L2 Twisted Pair IndicatorOn the grand stage of the financial market, every trader is looking for a partner who can lead them to dance the tango well. The "Twisted Pair" indicator is that partner who dances gracefully in the market fluctuations. It weaves the rhythm of the market with two lines, helping traders to find the rhythm in the market's dance floor.
Imagine when the market is as calm as water, the "Twisted Pair" is like two ribbons tightly intertwined. They almost overlap on the chart, as if whispering: "Now, let's enjoy these quiet dance steps." This is the market consolidation period, the price fluctuation is not significant, traders can relax and slowly savor every detail of the market.
Now, let's describe the market logic of this code in natural language:
- **HJ_1**: This is the foundation of the market dance steps, by calculating the average price and trading volume, setting the tone for the market rhythm.
- **HJ_2** and **HJ_3**: These two lines are the arms of the dance partner, they help traders identify the long-term trend of the market through smoothing.
- **HJ_4**: This is a magnifying glass for market sentiment, it reveals the tension and excitement of the market by calculating the short-term deviation of the price.
- **A7** and **A9**: These two lines are the guide to the dance steps, they separate when the market volatility increases, guiding the traders in the right direction.
- **WATCH**: This is the signal light of the dance, when the two lines overlap, the market is calm; when they separate, the market is active.
The "Twisted Pair" indicator is like a carefully choreographed dance, it allows traders to find their own rhythm in the market dance floor, whether in a calm slow dance or a passionate tango. Remember, the market is always changing, and the "Twisted Pair" is the perfect dance partner that can lead you to dance out brilliant steps.
The script of this "Twisted Pair" uses three different types of moving averages: EMA (Exponential Moving Average), DEMA (Double EMA), and TEMA (Triple EMA). These types can be selected by the user through exchange input.
Here are the main functions of this code:
1. Defined the DEMA and TEMA functions: These two functions are used to calculate the corresponding moving averages. EMA is the exponential moving average, which is a special type of moving average that gives more weight to recent data. In the first paragraph, ema1 is the EMA of "length", and ema2 is the EMA of ema1. DEMA is 2 times of ema1 minus ema2.
2. Let users choose to use EMA, DEMA or TEMA: This part of the code provides an option for users to choose which type of moving average they want to use.
3. Defined an algorithm called "Twisted Pair algorithm": This part of the code defines a complex algorithm to calculate a value called "HJ". This algorithm involves various complex calculations and applications of EMA, DEMA, TEMA.
4. Plotting charts: The following code is used to plot charts on Tradingview. It uses the plot function to draw lines, the plotcandle function to draw candle (K-line) charts, and yellow and red to represent different conditions.
5. Specify colors: The last two lines of code use yellow and red K-line charts to represent the conditions of HJ_7. If the conditions of HJ_7 are met, the color of the K-line chart will change to the corresponding color.
Volatility Adjusted MACDMACD, short for moving average convergence/divergence, is a trading indicator used in technical analysis of securities prices, created by Gerald Appel in the late 1970s. It is designed to reveal changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend in a stock's price.
The MACD indicator (or "oscillator") is a collection of three time series calculated from historical price data, most often the closing price. These three series are: the MACD series proper, the "signal" or "average" series, and the "divergence" series which is the difference between the two. The MACD series is the difference between a "fast" (short period) exponential moving average (EMA), and a "slow" (longer period) EMA of the price series. The average series is an EMA of the MACD series itself.
This version of MACD follows the work of Alex Spiroglou, DipTA(ATAA), CFTe in his 2022 paper that was awarded Charles H. Dow Award by CMT Association . The paper is available on papers.ssrn.com or on website.of CMT Association.
Please refer to the paper for details on construction and trading rules . I personally find the volatility adjusted version as described in this paper more responsive in terms of signals and divergences.
[blackcat] L1 Larry Williams VixFix IndicatorLevel : L1
Larry Williams, had this idea to create a synthetic VIX for more than just the main stock indices. Check out the formula for Williams VixFix:
```
VIX Fix Formula = (Highest(Close, 22) – Low) / (Highest(Close, 22)) * 100
```
What does this even mean? In normal person terms, here's what it's all about:
1. Find the highest close over the last 22 days and subtract today's low (or the current bar).
2. Divide that by the highest close of the past 22 days.
3. Multiply the result by 100 to "normalize" the indicator.
Why 22 days, you ask? That's how long the normal month of trading days is.
So, you see, the formula is pretty chill. It's just a way to measure the price volatility of the last 22 trading days. It's a bit of a lagging indicator, but it gets the job done.
Here my version of this scriptcreates a custom technical indicator called "L1 Larry Williams VixFix" that measures the distance between the highest high and the lowest low of a security's price over a specified period.
The user can adjust the period length and source price used in the VixFix calculation. The period length is set to 22 by default, but can be modified by the user with the "Length" input parameter. The source price is set to "close" by default, meaning it will use the closing price of each bar to calculate the VixFix. However, the user can also choose a different type of price data, such as open, high, or low.
The VixFix is calculated as a percentage of the difference between the highest close and the lowest low over the specified period. This percentage is then multiplied by 100 to create a more readable value.
Finally, the code plots the VixFix line on the chart with a yellow color and a thickness of 2. This allows the user to easily visualize the VixFix value and incorporate it into their trading decisions.
Overall, this script provides a powerful tool for technical analysis that can help traders identify potential trend changes and market reversals.
Buying Selling Volume StrategyFirst I would like to give the original credit and thanks to @ceyhun for his amazing volume script.
The way I decided to convert it into a strategy is divided into multiple types.
First, I decided in order to smooth out the values and make it more accurate to adapt the values to multiple timeframes.
After that I took the initial values from the buyers and sellers , and made a rest operation between them to have a flat difference between the power of both sides.
WIth that later on I decided to to apply a volatility filter,in this case bollinger bands, in order to find out potential leading trends.
At the same time in order to filter even more, I decided to make use as well for weekly VWAP values of the asset used.
Lastly I added a dynamic risk management into it , based on the ATR Daily values of the asset values.
As for the rules used, for example for long, I am looking that the price of the asset is above the weekly VWAP, after that I am checking that the MTF volume rest operation is both bullish and above the upper side of the bollinger.
For short we would want the asset to be below the weekly VWAP, and the volume to be bearish and above the upper side of bollinger.
The exit is either based on daily ATR values multipliers, or if we have a reverse condition.
If you have any questions, please let me know !
Volatility Weighted Moving Average + Session Average linesHi Traders !
Just finished my Y2 university finals exams, and thought I would cook up a quick and hopefully useful script.
VWAP + Session Average Lines :
Volatility Weighted Average Price in the standard case is a trading indicator that measures the average trading price for the user defined period, usually a standard session (D timeframe), & is used by traders as a trend confirmation tool.
This VWAP script allows for altering of the session to higher dimensions (D, W, M) or those of lower dimension (H4, or even H1 timeframes), furthermore this script allows the lookback of data to be switched from the standard session to a user defined amount of bars (e.g. the VWAP of 200 bars as opposed to the VWAP of a standard session which contains 95 bars in M15 timeframe for 24/7 traded assets e.g. BTCUSD), lastly this script plots Session VWAP Average Lines (if true in settings) so tradaes can gauge the area of highest liquidity within a session, this can be interpreted as the fair price within a session. If Average lines are increasing and decreasing consistently like a monotonic function this singles traders interest is at higher / lower prices respectively (Bullish / Bearish bias respectively ?), However if Average lines are centered around the same zones without any major fluctuations this signals a ranging market.
VWAP calculation :
VWAP is derived from the ratio of the assets value to total volume of transactions where value is the product of typical price (Average of high, low and close bars / candles) and corresponding bar volume, value can be thought of as the dollar value traded per bar.
How is VWAP used by Institutions / Market movers :
For some context and general information, VWAP is typically used by Market movers (e.g. Hedge funds, Mutual funds ,..., ...) in their trade execution, as trading at the VWAP equals the area of highest market volume, trading in line with the volume of the market reduces transaction costs by minimizing market impact (extra liquidity lowers spreads and lag time between order fills), this overall improves market efficiency.
In my opinion the script is best used with its standard settings on the M15 timeframe, note as of now the script is not functional on certain timeframes, however this script is not intended to be used in these timeframes, i will try fix this code bug as soon as possible.
VIX Rule of 16There’s an interesting aspect of VIX that has to do with the number 16. (approximately the square root of the number of trading days in a year).
In any statistical model, 68.2% of price movement falls within one standard deviation (1 SD ). The rest falls into the “tails” outside of 1 SD .
When you divide any implied volatility (IV) reading (such as VIX ) by 16, the annualized number becomes a daily number
The essence of the “rule of 16.” Once you get it, you can do all sorts of tricks with it.
If the VIX is trading at 16, then one-third of the time, the market expects the S&P 500 Index (SPX) to trade up or down by more than 1% (because 16/16=1). A VIX at 32 suggests a move up or down of more than 2% a third of the time, and so on.
• VIX of 16 – 1/3 of the time the SPX will have a daily change of at least 1%
• VIX of 32 – 1/3 of the time the SPX will have a daily change of at least 2%
• VIX of 48 – 1/3 of the time the SPX will have a daily change of at least 3%
VF-ST-EMA-CPRVolatility and Fibonacci table helps to identify support and resistance for the day/week. Similarly, the CPR (Central Pivot Range) table helps to identify the support and resistance for the day/week. Additionally use SUpertrend and EMA to identify trends.
Disclaimer:
This indicator is for educational or study purposes. There is no recommendation to buy or sell any scrip here. Take your own risks and rewards and you are only
responsible for any outcome after using this indicator.
Daily/Weekly ExtremesBACKGROUND
This indicator calculates the daily and weekly +-1 standard deviation of the S&P 500 based on 2 methodologies:
1. VIX - Using the market's expectation of forward volatility, one can calculate the daily expectation by dividing the VIX by the square root of 252 (the number of trading days in a year) - also know as the "rule of 16." Similarly, dividing by the square root of 50 will give you the weekly expected range based on the VIX.
2. ATR - We also provide expected weekly and daily ranges based on 5 day/week ATR.
HOW TO USE
- This indicator only has 1 option in the settings: choosing the ATR (default) or the VIX to plot the +-1 standard deviation range.
- This indicator WILL ONLY display these ranges if you are looking at the SPX or ES futures. The ranges will not be displayed if you are looking at any other symbols
- The boundaries displayed on the chart should not be used on their own as bounce/reject levels. They are simply to provide a frame of reference as to where price is trading with respect to the market's implied expectations. It can be used as an indicator to look for signs of reversals on the tape.
- Daily and Weekly extremes are plotted on all time frames (even on lower time frames).
William Blau Ergodic Tick Volume Indicator (TVI) [Loxx]William Blau Ergodic Tick Volume Indicator (TVI) is a volume/volatility indicator that is used for finding reversals in price movement
What is William Blau Ergodic Tick Volume?
This is one of the techniques described by William Blau in his book "Momentum, Direction and Divergence" (1995). If you like to learn more, we advise you to read this book. His book focuses on three key aspects of trading: momentum, direction and divergence. Blau, who was an electrical engineer before becoming a trader, thoroughly examines the relationship between price and momentum in step-by-step examples. From this grounding, he then looks at the deficiencies in other oscillators and introduces some innovative techniques, including a fresh twist on Stochastics. On directional issues, he analyzes the intricacies of ADX and offers a unique approach to help define trending and non-trending periods.
William Blau's definition of TVI ergodicity is that the indictor is ergodic when periods are set to 32, 5, 1, and the signal is set to 5. Other combinations are not ergodic, according to Blau.
How to use TVI
TVI bar color change is a signal to enter the market. When the TVI changes from yellow to red, it is a signal to buy and if the TVI bar changes from blue to green, it is a signal to sell.
Just like the MACD and TRIX, the zero line on the indicator determines market sentiment and trend. If the TVI bars are above the zero line it's bullish and if the TVI bars are below the zero line the trend is bearish. Zero line crosses can be used to determine continuation and trend entries as well.

Simple Bollinger Band Width PercentileI'm a big fan of The_Caretaker's BBWP and wanted to add it as a volatility indicator to some of my scripts, but since it is over 100 lines of code (plus spacing and comments) I wanted to find if there was a simpler way to get comparable results. SBBWP uses Pine 5 built in functions that I don't believe were available when The_Caretaker wrote BBPW. The main limitations compared to The_Caretaker's version is that it can only use SMA as its Basis Type and the colors are also not as pretty. I have not included alerts or scale lines since I'm not trying to replace BBWP, just give a simple example that you can easily build in to your scripts.
Full credit and respect to The_Caretaker!
Trend Day IndentificationVolatility is cyclical, after a large move up or down the market typically "ranges" during the next session. Directional order flow that enters the market during this subsequent session tends not to persist, this non-persistency of transactions leads to a non-trend day which is when I trade intraday reversionary strategies.
This script finds trend days in BTC with the purpose of:
1) counting trend day frequency
2) predicting range contraction for the next 1-2 days so I can run intraday reversion strategies
Trend down is defined as daily bar opening within X% of high and closing within X% of low
Trend up is defined as daily bar opening within X% of low and closing within X% of high
default parameters are:
1) open range extreme = 15% (open is within 15% of high or low)
2) close range extreme = 15% (close is within 15% of high or low)
There is also an atr filter that checks that the trend day has a larger range than the previous 4 bars this is to make sure we find true range expansion vs recent ranges.
Notes:
If a trend day occurs after a prolonged sideways contraction it can signal a breakout - this is less common but is an exception to the rule. These types of occurrences can lead to the persistency of order flow and result in extended directional daily runs.
If a trend day occurs close to 20 days high or low (stopping just short OR pushing slightly through) then wait an additional day before trading intraday reversion strategies.
Relative Standard DeviationStandard Deviation is a common measure of volatility (the dispersion of data relative to its mean). However, when using it as an indicator, it can be more useful at times to know the deviation relative to the price as a percentage versus the hard value. This normalizes the data so that it is easier to compare the deviation of different assets. By definition, standard deviation is the square root of the variance, and it is how far the price is from the mean 68.2% of the time when there is normative distribution.
What it does : This indicator will tell you the standard deviation of the asset relative to its price (as a %), but also has the option to plot the normal (population) standard deviation.
Example use case : The regular standard deviation of Asset A is $12 and Asset B is $10. Which one is more volatile? Well, it depends on the asset price. If asset A just closed at $900 and asset B just closed at $30, that makes a big difference. In this instance Asset A $12/$900=1.33% (standard deviation relative to the asset price). Asset B $10/$30=33.33% (standard deviation relative to the asset price). Using a normal standard deviation indicator, you would just see that the standard deviation of Asset A is higher as a hard dollar value, when the reality is that Asset A is much less volatile.
How to use it : This indicator plots a blue line by default that is the Relative Standard Deviation of the asset compared to the asset price (a %). There is also an option to turn on / plot regular (population) Standard Deviation, which will plot as a purple line. The mean length used for the average, and the lookback period that the indicator uses to calculate, are both adjustable with inputs.
Average True Range (VStop) Cloud SignalsThis indicator extends the built-in Volatility Stop indicator to a visual signals type indicator based on the crossover of a small VStop value (default 1.5x ATR) and a larger VStop value (default 3x ATR). The two values form a "cloud" with default coloring based on RSI/strength of trend.
