Momentum Squeeze Candle [Darwinian]# Momentum Squeeze Candle
Professional squeeze detection indicator with Wyckoff accumulation/distribution analysis and multi-method momentum signals.
## Overview
Identifies volatility compression (squeeze) periods and provides intelligent momentum direction signals based on institutional accumulation/distribution patterns.
## Features
6 Squeeze Detection Methods:
• BB + KC (Classic) - John Carter's TTM Squeeze
• ATR Ratio - Volatility compression detection
• Choppiness Index - Ranging vs trending analysis
• BB Width - Bollinger Band contraction
• Volume Contraction - Drying volume detection
• Hybrid Multi-Method - Ensemble approach (3+ methods must agree)
Smart Momentum Direction:
• Priority 1: Wyckoff signals (ATR compression + volume analysis)
• Priority 2: RSI momentum (55/45 thresholds)
• Priority 3: Hybrid slope + momentum confirmation
Visual Indicators:
• Blue candle coloring during squeeze
• Green circles = Bullish momentum (accumulation detected)
• Red circles = Bearish momentum (distribution detected)
• Optional BB/KC band overlay
## How It Works
Wyckoff Accumulation (Bullish):
ATR compressing + volume drying + price holding above MA = Smart money accumulating
→ Green circle signals
Wyckoff Distribution (Bearish):
ATR expanding + volume surging + price failing below MA = Smart money distributing
→ Red circle signals

Buying Climax + Spring [Darwinian]Buying Climax + Spring Indicator
Overview
Advanced Wyckoff-based indicator that identifies potential market reversals through **Buying Climax** patterns (exhaustion tops) and **Spring** patterns (accumulation bottoms). Designed for traders seeking high-probability reversal signals with strict uptrend validation.
---
Method
🔴 Buying Climax Detection
Identifies exhaustion patterns at market tops using multi-condition analysis:
**Base Buying Climax (Red Triangle)**
- Volume spike > 1.8x average
- Range expansion > 1.8x average
- New 20-bar high reached
- Close finishes in lower 30% of bar range
- **Strict uptrend validation**: Price must be 30%+ above 20-day low
**Enhanced Buying Climax (Maroon Triangle)**
- All Base BC conditions PLUS:
- Gap up from previous high
- Intraday fade (close < open and below midpoint)
- **Higher confidence reversal signal**
🟢 Wyckoff Spring Detection
Identifies accumulation patterns at support levels:
- Price breaks below recent pivot low (false breakdown)
- Close recovers above pivot level (rejection)
- Occurs at trading range low
- Optional volume confirmation (1.5x+ average)
- Limited to 3 attempts per pivot (prevents over-signaling)
✅ Uptrend Validation Filter
**Four-condition composite filter** prevents false signals in sideways/downtrending markets:
1. Close-to-close rise ≥ 5% over lookback period
2. Price structure: Close > MA(10) > MA(20)
3. Swing low significantly below current price
4. **Primary requirement**: Current high ≥ 30% above 20-day low
---
Input Tuning Guide
Buying Climax Settings:
**Volume & Range Thresholds**
- `Volume Spike Threshold`: Default 1.8x
- Lower (1.5x) = More signals, more noise
- Higher (2.0-2.5x) = Fewer but stronger exhaustion signals
- `Range Spike Threshold`: Default 1.8x
- Adjust parallel to volume threshold
- Higher values = extreme volatility required
**Pattern Detection**
- `New High Lookback`: Default 20 bars
- Shorter (10-15) = Recent highs only
- Longer (30-50) = Major breakout detection
- `Close Off High Fraction`: Default 0.3 (30%)
- Lower (0.2) = Stricter rejection requirement
- Higher (0.4-0.5) = Allow weaker intraday fades
- `Gap Threshold`: Default 0.002 (0.2%)
- Increase (0.005-0.01) for stocks with wider spreads
- Decrease (0.001) for tight-spread instruments
- `Confirmation Window`: Default 5 bars
- Shorter (3) = Faster confirmation, more false positives
- Longer (7-10) = Wait for deeper automatic reaction
Uptrend Filter Settings
**Critical for Signal Quality**

- **Most important parameter**
- Lower (0.20-0.25) = More signals in moderate uptrends
- Higher (0.40-0.50) = Only extreme parabolic moves
- `Pole Lookback`: Default 30 bars
- Shorter (20) = Recent momentum focus
- Longer (40-50) = Longer-term trend validation
- `Minimum Rise % for Pole`: Default 0.05 (5%)
- Adjust based on market volatility
- Higher in strong bull markets (7-10%)
Wyckoff Spring Settings
- `Pivot Length`: Default 6 bars
- Shorter (3-4) = More frequent pivots, more signals
- Longer (8-10) = Major support/resistance only
- `Volume Threshold`: Default 1.5x
- Higher (1.8-2.0x) = Stronger conviction required
- Disable volume requirement for low-volume stocks
- `Trading Range Period`: Default 20 bars
- Match to consolidation timeframe being traded
- Shorter (10-15) for intraday patterns
- Longer (30-40) for weekly consolidations
---
Recommended Workflow
1. **Start with defaults** on daily timeframe
2. **Adjust uptrend filter** first (30% rise parameter)
- Too many signals? Increase to 35-40%
- Too few? Decrease to 25%
3. **Fine-tune volume/range multipliers** based on instrument volatility
4. **Enable alerts** for real-time monitoring:
- Base BC → Initial warning
- Enhanced BC → High-priority reversal
- Confirmed BC (AR) → Strong follow-through
- Spring → Accumulation opportunity
---
Alert System
- **Base Buying Climax**: Standard exhaustion pattern detected
- **Enhanced BC (Gap+Fade)**: Higher confidence reversal setup
- **Confirmed BC (AR)**: Automatic reaction validated (price drops below BC midline)
- **Wyckoff Spring**: Accumulation pattern at support
---
Best Practices
- Combine with support/resistance analysis
- Watch for BC clusters (multiple timeframes)
- Spring patterns work best after Buying Climax distribution
- Backtest parameters on your specific instruments
- Higher timeframes (daily/weekly) = higher reliability

*Indicator follows classical Wyckoff methodology with modern volatility filters*
Diamond Peaks [EdgeTerminal]The Diamond Peaks indicator is a comprehensive technical analysis tool that uses a few mathematical models to identify high-probability trading opportunities. This indicator goes beyond traditional support and resistance identification by incorporating volume analysis, momentum divergences, advanced price action patterns, and market sentiment indicators to generate premium-quality buy and sell signals.
Dynamic Support/Resistance Calculation
The indicator employs an adaptive algorithm that calculates support and resistance levels using a volatility-adjusted lookback period. The base calculation uses ta.highest(length) and ta.lowest(length) functions, where the length parameter is dynamically adjusted using the formula: adjusted_length = base_length * (1 + (volatility_ratio - 1) * volatility_factor). The volatility ratio is computed as current_ATR / average_ATR over a 50-period window, ensuring the lookback period expands during volatile conditions and contracts during calm periods. This mathematical approach prevents the indicator from using fixed periods that may become irrelevant during different market regimes.
Momentum Divergence Detection Algorithm
The divergence detection system uses a mathematical comparison between price series and oscillator values over a specified lookback period. For bullish divergences, the algorithm identifies when recent_low < previous_low while simultaneously indicator_at_recent_low > indicator_at_previous_low. The inverse logic applies to bearish divergences. The system tracks both RSI (calculated using Pine Script's standard ta.rsi() function with Wilder's smoothing) and MACD (using ta.macd() with exponential moving averages). The mathematical rigor ensures that divergences are only flagged when there's a clear mathematical relationship between price momentum and the underlying oscillator momentum, eliminating false signals from minor price fluctuations.
Volume Analysis Mathematical Framework
The volume analysis component uses multiple mathematical transformations to assess market participation. The Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) is calculated as ∑(buying_volume - selling_volume) where buying_volume occurs when close > open and selling_volume when close < open. The relative volume calculation uses current_volume / ta.sma(volume, period) to normalize current activity against historical averages. Volume Rate of Change employs ta.roc(volume, period) = (current_volume - volume ) / volume * 100 to measure volume acceleration. Large trade detection uses a threshold multiplier against the volume moving average, mathematically identifying institutional activity when relative_volume > threshold_multiplier.
Advanced Price Action Mathematics
The Wyckoff analysis component uses mathematical volume climax detection by comparing current volume against ta.highest(volume, 50) * 0.8, while price compression is measured using (high - low) < ta.atr(20) * 0.5. Liquidity sweep detection employs percentage-based calculations: bullish sweeps occur when low < recent_low * (1 - threshold_percentage/100) followed by close > recent_low. Supply and demand zones are mathematically validated by tracking subsequent price action over a defined period, with zone strength calculated as the count of bars where price respects the zone boundaries. Fair value gaps are identified using ATR-based thresholds: gap_size > ta.atr(14) * 0.5.
Sentiment and Market Regime Mathematics
The sentiment analysis employs a multi-factor mathematical model. The fear/greed index uses volatility normalization: 100 - min(100, stdev(price_changes, period) * scaling_factor). Market regime classification uses EMA crossover mathematics with additional ADX-based trend strength validation. The trend strength calculation implements a modified ADX algorithm: DX = |+DI - -DI| / (+DI + -DI) * 100, then ADX = RMA(DX, period). Bull regime requires short_EMA > long_EMA AND ADX > 25 AND +DI > -DI. The mathematical framework ensures objective regime classification without subjective interpretation.
Confluence Scoring Mathematical Model
The confluence scoring system uses a weighted linear combination: Score = (divergence_component * 0.25) + (volume_component * 0.25) + (price_action_component * 0.25) + (sentiment_component * 0.25) + contextual_bonuses. Each component is normalized to a 0-100 scale using percentile rankings and threshold comparisons. The mathematical model ensures that no single component can dominate the score, while contextual bonuses (regime alignment, volume confirmation, etc.) provide additional mathematical weight when multiple factors align. The final score is bounded using math.min(100, math.max(0, calculated_score)) to maintain mathematical consistency.
Vitality Field Mathematical Implementation
The vitality field uses a multi-factor scoring algorithm that combines trend direction (EMA crossover: trend_score = fast_EMA > slow_EMA ? 1 : -1), momentum (RSI-based: momentum_score = RSI > 50 ? 1 : -1), MACD position (macd_score = MACD_line > 0 ? 1 : -1), and volume confirmation. The final vitality score uses weighted mathematics: vitality_score = (trend * 0.4) + (momentum * 0.3) + (macd * 0.2) + (volume * 0.1). The field boundaries are calculated using ATR-based dynamic ranges: upper_boundary = price_center + (ATR * user_defined_multiplier), with EMA smoothing applied to prevent erratic boundary movements. The gradient effect uses mathematical transparency interpolation across multiple zones.
Signal Generation Mathematical Logic
The signal generation employs boolean algebra with multiple mathematical conditions that must simultaneously evaluate to true. Buy signals require: (confluence_score ≥ threshold) AND (divergence_detected = true) AND (relative_volume > 1.5) AND (volume_ROC > 25%) AND (RSI < 35) AND (trend_strength > minimum_ADX) AND (regime = bullish) AND (cooldown_expired = true) AND (last_signal ≠ buy). The mathematical precision ensures that signals only generate when all quantitative conditions are met, eliminating subjective interpretation. The cooldown mechanism uses bar counting mathematics: bars_since_last_signal = current_bar_index - last_signal_bar_index ≥ cooldown_period. This mathematical framework provides objective, repeatable signal generation that can be backtested and validated statistically.
This mathematical foundation ensures the indicator operates on objective, quantifiable principles rather than subjective interpretation, making it suitable for algorithmic trading and systematic analysis while maintaining transparency in its computational methodology.
* for now, we're planning to keep the source code private as we try to improve the models used here and allow a small group to test them. My goal is to eventually use the multiple models in this indicator as their own free and open source indicators. If you'd like to use this indicator, please send me a message to get access.
Advanced Confluence Scoring System
Each support and resistance level receives a comprehensive confluence score (0-100) based on four weighted components:

[Pandora's Chambers] BUY/SELL Blocks + Strength FCBased on the secret technique of ATTA,
Traditional price action analysis techniques, such as ICT (Inner Circle Trader), are often based on subjective interpretations and frequently miss the true structure of the market according to the Wyckoff method. The " BUY/SELL Blocks + Strength FC" indicator aims to correct this problem by automatically and accurately identifying buy/sell "blocks" according to Wyckoff principles, calculating volume strength, filtering breached blocks, and displaying precise support and resistance levels.
Indicator Highlights
Buy/Sell Blocks Identification
Uses the ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions to locate upper and lower pivot points, and draws a "box" between the two points to represent the block.
Each block is automatically extended to the right of the chart (can be disabled in settings) for a fixed number of bars or until the end of the chart.
Colors are configurable: turquoise shades for buy blocks, and purple for sell blocks.
Volume Strength Calculation and Update
In each candle, positive volume (in a rising market) or negative volume (in a falling market) is added to the relevant block.
Displays in percentages which side (buyers/sellers) controls the block: a label on the block shows +XX% or -XX%.
Changes the background color of the box to gray when the net volume flips (e.g., a strong sell block receives a net positive).
Filtering Breached Blocks
Option to automatically filter and remove blocks where the price has closed above the top of the sell block or below the bottom of the buy block, in order to maintain a clean and focused chart.
"Adjusted" Fibonacci Grid
In the last calculated bars, the indicator identifies the nearest high support level (sup) and the nearest low resistance level (res) among all existing blocks.
Based on sup and res, a Fibonacci grid of 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% is constructed, automatically updating as the chart progresses.
What is so new here?
Accuracy according to Wyckoff and not personal interpretation: In the Wyckoff method, market oscillations are built on supply and demand balances in precise price gaps. Here, each block is built directly on pivots from a number of bars back, and not on feelings of an "area" as is sometimes done in ICT techniques.
Quantitative measurement of control: The indicator does not settle for a visual identification of a block but calculates for each block the buy volume versus the sell volume, and clearly displays who is in control.
Automatic filtering to maintain relevance: Breached blocks are removed, so only the strong areas that have not yet been closed remain.
Full integration with modern price action: Understanding price movement is measured here objectively, leaving no room for subjective interpretations of "structure breaks" or "diagonal waves" that standard tools do not support.
Why is the existing price action not enough?
Inconsistency in defining supply and demand zones: Many techniques rely on manual marking of "buy zones" only, without fixed criteria (number of bars back, low highs, volume, etc.).
Scarcity of quantitative indicators: Without calculating net volume, it is difficult to know if a particular block is truly supported by the power of buyers or sellers.
Net invalidation of blocks that have been violated: Repeated breaches of support and resistance areas below/above their boundaries confuse the trader, while here they are automatically removed.
The " BUY/SELL Blocks + Strength FC" indicator comes to correct all these shortcomings, and provides the user with an objective, accurate, and quantitative framework for understanding the dynamics of the market and identifying volume-based support and resistance areas, according to the principles of the Wyckoff method.
[AlbaTherium] Volume Venturius Premium Volume Venturius Premium
Introduction
The Volume Venturius Premium is an advanced market analysis tool designed to deeply investigate the behavior of active market participants. By focusing exclusively on executed market orders, Volume Venturius offers traders a unique perspective on buy and sell volumes. Unlike traditional order books that track passive orders, this indicator isolates active orders, shedding light on real market dynamics.
Chapter 1: Understanding Market Participants
1.1 Categories of Market Participants
Market participants can be classified into several categories based on their:
Size : The volume of trades executed.
Influence : Their ability to initiate bull or bear campaigns.
Strategy : The trading methods employed, such as scalping, swing trading, or high-frequency trading.
Objectives : Whether their focus is on speculation, hedging, or arbitrage.
Time Horizon : Short-term versus long-term goals.
Behavioral Patterns : Their reaction to liquidity levels or price movements.
1.2 Objectives of Market Participants
Each category pursues specific objectives, such as profit-making or risk management. Regulatory reports like the Commitment of Traders (COT) provide weekly insights into the positions and intentions of major players.
Chapter 2: The Philosophy of Volume Analysis
2.1 Active Orders vs. Passive Orders
Unlike passive orders waiting to be filled at specific prices, active orders directly impact market prices. By focusing on these executed orders, Volume Venturius Premium provides traders with actionable insights into market trends and momentum.
2.2 Wyckoff’s Market Dynamics
According to Wyckoff, markets operate in two primary phases:
Manipulation: Where large participants accumulate or distribute positions to prepare for a move.
Expansion: The phase where price trends begin to unfold, either in a bullish or bearish direction.
Wyckoff’s theory emphasizes understanding how major players manipulate the market to identify accumulation or distribution zones. Volume Venturius Premium aids in pinpointing these manipulative actions by analyzing volume and order flow data.
Chapter 3: The Secrets of Order Flow and Volume
3.1 Unveiling Market Control
By studying the positioning and execution volumes of large players, traders can discern who holds control in the market. Volume Venturius Premium identifies the balance of power and tracks shifts that signal potential trend reversals.
3.2 Behavioral Patterns in Volume
Key metrics tracked by Volume Venturius Premium include:
Volume Clusters : Areas of concentrated buying or selling activity.
Directional Bias : Whether market participants are net buyers or sellers.
Momentum Shifts : Changes in execution speed and volume that may precede major moves.
3.2.1 Volume Clusters, Directional Bias and Directional Bias: Areas of Concentrated Buying or Selling Activity
Volume clusters play a crucial role in understanding market dynamics by highlighting areas where aggressive buying or selling activity is most concentrated. These clusters often serve as key decision zones, providing insights into potential reversals, breakouts, or continuations. To better visualize and interpret these zones, a distinct color-coding system has been implemented. Each color represents a specific market condition or level of activity, allowing for a more intuitive analysis of volume behavior and its influence on price movement.
Below is a detailed explanation of the color logic used to represent these clusters and their significance within the trading framework.
Color Interpretation and Meaning :
Extra Extreme Zones
These zones highlight areas where clusters of aggressive buyers or sellers are most heavily concentrated. They represent critical levels for identifying potential reversals or strong continuations.
Bright Red (#ff003c) : Represents extra-extreme sell zones, where aggressive sellers dominate.
Meaning: Indicates extreme selling pressure, often signaling potential exhaustion of sellers.
Bright Blue (#001eff) : Represents extra-extreme buy zones, where aggressive buyers are most active.
Meaning: Shows extreme buying pressure, possibly marking a saturation point for buyers.
Main Zones
These zones help identify key levels based on volume activity and well-defined clusters.
Dark Red (#d60033) : Represents strong selling pressure.
Orange (#ff8000) : Indicates significant selling pressure that begins to fade.
Yellow (#ffff00) : Represents moderate selling pressure, signaling a potential slowdown.
White (#ffffff) : Marks transition zones, which are interesting entry points for potential reversals or continuations.
Transition Zones (Frontier Zones)
These zones indicate intermediate movements and potential shifts in momentum.
Transparent Black (#000000, 50) : Represents transition areas, where the market tests boundaries between buyers and sellers.
Meaning: These are critical decision points.
Neutral Zone (Sea Zone)- Trend Zones
These zones represent more balanced market activity, where neither buyers nor sellers dominate clearly.
Transparent Green (#00e040, 25) : Indicates slight bullish activity in a neutral zone.
Transparent Red (#e01a00, 25) : Indicates slight bearish activity in a neutral zone.
This color logic allows you to pinpoint areas where volume clusters show a clear dominance, exhaustion, or optimal entry opportunities.
3.3 Divergences Between Price and Volume
Divergences between price and volume are critical for identifying key shifts in market sentiment. Volume Venturius Premium distinguishes two main types of divergences: Lack of Participation and Absorption, each offering valuable signals for potential reversals or continuations.
Lack of Participation
This divergence occurs when price movements are not supported by corresponding volume dynamics, signaling a reduction in activity from significant market participants.
1. Bullish Lack of Participation:
Characteristics : Price is making lower lows, but volume is making higher lows.
This indicates waning selling pressure as prices drop.
Inference : A potential bullish reversal may occur. Traders could consider looking for opportunities to go long.
2.Bearish Lack of Participation:
Characteristics : Price is making higher highs, but volume is making lower highs. This suggests diminishing buying pressure even as prices rise.
Inference : A potential bearish reversal might follow. Traders might position to go short.
Absorption
Absorption occurs when larger market participants neutralize the pressure from smaller participants, often leading to significant market moves.
1.Bullish Absorption:
Characteristics : Price is making higher bottoms, but volume is making lower bottoms.
This reflects sellers being trapped as their selling efforts are absorbed by larger buyers.
Inference : A potential upward breakout is likely. Traders may look for opportunities to go long.
2.Bearish Absorption:
Characteristics : Price is making lower tops, but volume is making higher tops. This indicates buyers being trapped as larger sellers absorb their buying activity.
Inference : A downward breakout is probable. Traders may consider positioning to go short.

Head and Shoulders - Quasimodo etc Pattern Recognition RENKODisclaimer: Only use this pattern recognition on a RENKO chart. Renko charts plot different than traditional candles and therefore do not represent all price moves. There is a possibility of repainting while using ATR based renko charts so past results are not a 100% accurate representation of future results. Use this indicator as a part of your strategy and not as your only means of obtaining gains in the market.
Hello traders, it has been said time and time again that algorithmic software is unable to identify complex market structure like head and shoulders, quasimodo, triangle patterns and other methods humans use to base their trading decisions on. With this indicator I intend to completely crush that assumption and prove that it actualy is possible. Ofcourse an indicator is less likely to find all variation on a chart pattern and a human is probably still your best bet in finding these patterns early.
That is wy this indicator does not only use textbook patterns and has 7 variation on head and shoulders build into it. I will keep updating this indicator if I see it missed some crucial patterns. Right now it has a total of 38 patterns build into it with them being grouped under specific names. Feel free to turn off any pattern you do not like to see.
Renko patterns solve the problem of time and chaos in the markets which have been the biggest hurdle in pattern recognition software as the amount of variations to account for is just too great a number. With this script using renko it will soon be able to identify any pattern in the market and I plan to add Wyckoff to it in the future, right now I have a beta version of Wyckoff build into it but planning to add better version of it in the future. The amount of variations on Wyckoff is quite extreme so it will take a very long time to get an optimised Wyckoff identification system.
If you do not want to miss patterns I recommend to use a multi chart aproach so that you can find patterns in multiple renko brick sizes at the same time to find more entrys.
Feel free to comment any pattern you want me to add and let's make the most dedicated pattern recognition software on this platform.

Price Wave V.1.0The Price Wave Indicator is very good add-on to the Volume wave which is an important tool in the Wyckoffian Analysis of the stocks. Along with the Volume wave it helps to understand the effort and result ratios and the consequent effect on the stocks. It has to be used in conjunction with the Volume wave and not useful on a standalone basis
Volume Wave V.1.0Volume wave Indicator is an important tool in the Wyckoffian Analysis of the stocks. It helps to understand the changing / continuation of bullish and bearish sentiment or the Buying and selling pressure. It also helps to understanding the waxing and waning buying and selling pressure and forewarns the changing sentiment. Along with the Price wave it helps to understand the effort and result ratios and the consequent effect on the stocks.
Linh's Anomaly Radar v2What this script does
It’s an event detector for price/volume anomalies that often precede or confirm moves.
It watches a bunch of patterns (Wyckoff tests, squeezes, failed breakouts, turnover bursts, etc.), applies robust z-scores, optional trend filters, cooldowns (to avoid spam), and then fires:
A shape/label on the bar,
A row in the mini panel (top-right),
A ready-made alertcondition you can hook into.
How to add & set up (TradingView)
Paste the script → Save → Add to chart on Daily first (works on any TF).

How to use it (playbooks)
A) Daily scan workflow
Run on Daily for your VN watchlist.
Turn Composite (Σ) alert on with Σ≥2 or ≥3 to reduce noise.
When a bar fires Σ (or a fav combo like STL + BB↑), drop to 60-min to time entries.
B) Breakout quality check
Look for 52W together with BB↑, TAC, and OBV.
If WER/ND appear near highs → downgrade the breakout.
C) Spring/UTAD reversals
If SPR fires near major support and RBd confirms → long bias with stop below spring low.
If UTD + WER/RS↑ near resistance → short/fade with stop above UTAD high.
D) Accumulation basing
During bases, you want CLS, OBV, TGV, STL, NR7.
A pocket pivot (PIV) can be your early add; manage risk below base lows.
Tuning tips
Too many signals? Raise stealthVolZ to 5.5–6, evrVolZ to 3.5, use Σ≥3.
Fast movers? Lower bbwZthr to −1.0 (less strict squeeze), keep trend filter on.
Illiquid tickers? Keep MAD z-scores on, increase lookbacks (e.g., lenZ=120).
Limitations & good habits
First lenZ bars on a new symbol are less reliable (incomplete z-window).
Some ideas (VWAP magnet, close auction spikes, ETF/foreign flows, options skew) need intraday/external feeds — not included here.
Pine can’t “screen” across the whole market; set alerts or cycle your watchlist.
Quick troubleshooting
Compilation errors: make sure you’re on Pine v6; don’t nest functions in if blocks; each var int must be declared on its own line.
No shapes firing: check trend filter (maybe price is below SMA and you’re waiting for bullish signals), and verify thresholds aren’t too strict.
Big Whale Finder PROBig Whale Finder PRO
The Big Whale Finder PRO is an advanced technical indicator designed to detect and analyze the footprints of institutional traders (commonly referred to as "whales") in financial markets. Based on multiple proprietary detection algorithms, this indicator identifies distinct patterns of accumulation and distribution that typically occur when large market participants execute significant orders.
Theoretical Framework
The indicator builds upon established market microstructure theories and empirical research on institutional trading behavior. As Kyle (1985) demonstrated in his seminal work on market microstructure, informed traders with large positions tend to execute their orders strategically to minimize market impact. This often results in specific volume and price action patterns that the Big Whale Finder PRO is designed to detect.
Key Feature Enhancements
1. Volume Analysis Refinement
The indicator implements a dual-threshold approach to volume analysis based on research by Easley et al. (2012) on volume-based informed trading metrics. The normal threshold identifies routine institutional activity, while the extreme threshold flags exceptional events that often precede significant market moves.
2. Wickbody Ratio Analysis
Drawing from Cao et al. (2021) research on price formation and order flow imbalance, the indicator incorporates wick-to-body ratio analysis to detect potential order absorption and iceberg orders. High wick-to-body ratios often indicate hidden liquidity and resistance/support levels maintained by large players.
3. BWF-Index (Proprietary Metric)
The BWF-Index is a novel quantitative measure that combines volume anomalies, price stagnation, and candle morphology into a single metric. This approach draws from Harris's (2003) work on trading and exchanges, which suggests that institutional activity often manifests through multiple simultaneous market microstructure anomalies.
4. Zone Tracking System
Based on Wyckoff Accumulation/Distribution methodology and modern zone detection algorithms, the indicator establishes and tracks zones where institutional activity has occurred. This feature enables traders to identify potential support/resistance areas where large players have previously shown interest.
5. Trend Integration
Following Lo and MacKinlay's (1988) work on market efficiency and technical analysis, the indicator incorporates trend analysis through dual EMA comparison, providing context for volume and price patterns.
Labels and Signals Explanation
The indicator uses a system of labels to mark significant events on the chart:
🐋 (Whale Symbol): Indicates extreme volume activity that significantly exceeds normal market participation. This is often a sign of major institutional involvement and frequently precedes significant price moves. The presence of this label suggests heightened attention is warranted as a potential trend reversal or acceleration may be imminent.
A (Accumulation): Marks periods where large players are likely accumulating positions. This is characterized by high volume, minimal price movement upward, and stronger support at the lower end of the candle (larger lower wicks). Accumulation zones often form bases for future upward price movements. This pattern frequently occurs at the end of downtrends or during consolidation phases before uptrends.
D (Distribution): Identifies periods where large players are likely distributing (selling) their positions. This pattern shows high volume, minimal downward price movement, and stronger resistance at the upper end of the candle (larger upper wicks). Distribution zones often form tops before downward price movements. This pattern typically appears at the end of uptrends or during consolidation phases before downtrends.
ICE (Iceberg Order): Flags the potential presence of iceberg orders, where large orders are split into smaller visible portions to hide the true size. These are characterized by unusual wick-to-body ratios with high volume. Iceberg orders often indicate price levels that large institutions consider significant and may act as strong support or resistance areas.
Information Panel Interpretation
The information panel provides real-time analysis of market conditions:
Volume/Average Ratio: Shows how current volume compares to the historical average. Values above the threshold (default 1.5x) indicate abnormal activity that may signal institutional involvement.
BWF-Index: A proprietary metric that quantifies potential whale activity. Higher values (especially >10) indicate stronger likelihood of institutional participation. The BWF-Index combines volume anomalies, price action characteristics, and candle morphology to provide a single measure of potential whale activity.
Status: Displays the current market classification based on detected patterns:
"Major Whale Activity": Extreme volume detected, suggesting significant institutional involvement
"Accumulation": Potential buying activity by large players
"Distribution": Potential selling activity by large players
"High Volume": Above-average volume without clear accumulation/distribution patterns
"Normal": Regular market activity with no significant institutional footprints
Trend: Shows the current market trend based on EMA comparison:
"Uptrend": Fast EMA above Slow EMA, suggesting bullish momentum
"Downtrend": Fast EMA below Slow EMA, suggesting bearish momentum
"Sideways": EMAs very close together, suggesting consolidation
Zone: Indicates if the current price is in a previously identified institutional activity zone:
"In Buy Zone": Price is in an area where accumulation was previously detected
"In Sell Zone": Price is in an area where distribution was previously detected
"Neutral": Price is not in a previously identified institutional zone
Trading Recommendations
Based on the different signals and patterns, the following trading recommendations apply:
Bullish Scenarios
Accumulation (A) + Uptrend: Strong buy signal. Large players are accumulating in an established uptrend, suggesting potential continuation or acceleration.
Strategy: Consider entering long positions with stops below the accumulation zone.
Extreme Volume (🐋) + In Buy Zone + Price Above EMAs: Very bullish. Major whale activity in a previously established buying zone with positive price action.
Strategy: Aggressive buying opportunity with wider stops to accommodate volatility.
High BWF-Index (>10) + Accumulation + Downtrend Ending: Potential trend reversal signal. High institutional interest at the potential end of a downtrend.
Strategy: Early position building with tight risk management until trend confirmation.
Bearish Scenarios
Distribution (D) + Downtrend: Strong sell signal. Large players are distributing in an established downtrend, suggesting potential continuation or acceleration.
Strategy: Consider entering short positions with stops above the distribution zone.
Extreme Volume (🐋) + In Sell Zone + Price Below EMAs: Very bearish. Major whale activity in a previously established selling zone with negative price action.
Strategy: Aggressive shorting opportunity with wider stops to accommodate volatility.
High BWF-Index (>10) + Distribution + Uptrend Ending: Potential trend reversal signal. High institutional interest at the potential end of an uptrend.
Strategy: Early short position building with tight risk management until trend confirmation.
Neutral/Caution Scenarios
Iceberg Orders (ICE) + Sideways Market: Suggests significant hidden liquidity at current levels.
Strategy: Mark these levels as potential support/resistance for future reference. Consider range-trading strategies.
Conflicting Signals (e.g., Accumulation in Downtrend): Requires careful analysis.
Strategy: Wait for additional confirmation or reduce position sizing.
Multiple Extreme Volume Events (🐋) in Succession: Indicates unusual market conditions, possibly related to news events or major market shifts.
Strategy: Exercise extreme caution and potentially reduce exposure until clarity emerges.
Practical Applications
Short-Term Trading:
Use the indicator to identify institutional activity zones for potential intraday support/resistance levels
Watch for whale symbols (🐋) to anticipate potential volatility or trend changes
Combine with price action analysis for entry/exit timing
Swing Trading
Focus on accumulation/distribution patterns in conjunction with the prevailing trend
Use buy/sell zones as areas to establish or exit positions
Monitor the BWF-Index for increasing institutional interest over time
Position Trading
Track long-term whale activity to identify shifts in institutional positioning
Use multiple timeframe analysis to confirm major accumulation/distribution phases
Combine with fundamental analysis to validate potential long-term trend changes

RSI with Swing Trade by Kelvin_VAlgorithm Description: "RSI with Swing Trade by Kelvin_V"
1. Introduction:
This algorithm uses the RSI (Relative Strength Index) and optional Moving Averages (MA) to detect potential uptrends and downtrends in the market. The key feature of this script is that it visually changes the candle colors based on the market conditions, making it easier for users to identify potential trend swings or wave patterns.
The strategy offers flexibility by allowing users to enable or disable the MA condition. When the MA condition is enabled, the strategy will confirm trends using two moving averages. When disabled, the strategy will only use RSI to detect potential market swings.
2. Key Features of the Algorithm:
RSI (Relative Strength Index):
The RSI is used to identify potential market turning points based on overbought and oversold conditions.
When the RSI exceeds a predefined upper threshold (e.g., 60), it suggests a potential uptrend.
When the RSI drops below a lower threshold (e.g., 40), it suggests a potential downtrend.
Moving Averages (MA) - Optional:
Two Moving Averages (Short MA and Long MA) are used to confirm trends.
If the Short MA crosses above the Long MA, it indicates an uptrend.
If the Short MA crosses below the Long MA, it indicates a downtrend.
Users have the option to enable or disable this MA condition.
Visual Candle Coloring:
Green candles represent a potential uptrend, indicating a bullish move based on RSI (and MA if enabled).
Red candles represent a potential downtrend, indicating a bearish move based on RSI (and MA if enabled).
3. How the Algorithm Works:
RSI Levels:
The user can set RSI upper and lower bands to represent potential overbought and oversold levels. For example:
RSI > 60: Indicates a potential uptrend (bullish move).
RSI < 40: Indicates a potential downtrend (bearish move).
Optional MA Condition:
The algorithm also allows the user to apply the MA condition to further confirm the trend:
Short MA > Long MA: Confirms an uptrend, reinforcing a bullish signal.
Short MA < Long MA: Confirms a downtrend, reinforcing a bearish signal.
This condition can be disabled, allowing the user to focus solely on RSI signals if desired.
Swing Trade Logic:
Uptrend: If the RSI exceeds the upper threshold (e.g., 60) and (optionally) the Short MA is above the Long MA, the candles will turn green to signal a potential uptrend.
Downtrend: If the RSI falls below the lower threshold (e.g., 40) and (optionally) the Short MA is below the Long MA, the candles will turn red to signal a potential downtrend.
Visual Representation:
The candle colors change dynamically based on the RSI values and moving average conditions, making it easier for traders to visually identify potential trend swings or wave patterns without relying on complex chart analysis.
4. User Customization:
The algorithm provides multiple customization options:
RSI Length: Users can adjust the period for RSI calculation (default is 4).
RSI Upper Band (Potential Uptrend): Users can customize the upper RSI level (default is 60) to indicate a potential bullish move.
RSI Lower Band (Potential Downtrend): Users can customize the lower RSI level (default is 40) to indicate a potential bearish move.
MA Type: Users can choose between SMA (Simple Moving Average) and EMA (Exponential Moving Average) for moving average calculations.
Enable/Disable MA Condition: Users can toggle the MA condition on or off, depending on whether they want to add moving averages to the trend confirmation process.
5. Benefits of the Algorithm:
Easy Identification of Trends: By changing candle colors based on RSI and MA conditions, the algorithm makes it easy for users to visually detect potential trend reversals and trend swings.
Flexible Conditions: The user has full control over the RSI and MA settings, allowing them to adapt the strategy to different market conditions and timeframes.
Clear Visualization: With the candle color changes, users can quickly recognize when a potential uptrend or downtrend is forming, enabling faster decision-making in their trading.
6. Example Usage:
Day traders: Can apply this strategy on short timeframes such as 5 minutes or 15 minutes to detect quick trends or reversals.
Swing traders: Can use this strategy on longer timeframes like 1 hour or 4 hours to identify and follow larger market swings.
Accumulation/DistributionAccumulation/Distribution explains when the big players buy or sell, according to Wyckoff.
I added some colors to make it more visibly, to get a hint when (not) to invest.
A/D is a lagging indicator.
When the MA is above A/D line, this should reflect distribution time, and big players are selling.
The oppsite is when MA is below the A/D line, then this should be an accumulation phase, and big players are buying.
For example, my preference is a TEMA20 for crypto, this gives me good results.
But I added a bunch of moving averages to choose from.
Depending on preferences/marked you can choose a moving average, set its length, and you can choose all the colors too.
I recommend the Volume indicator to setup the MA line, and this will get much better results!
I hope this script will help some people to do some better decisions.
And I am pleased to get some advice to make this script even better!
There is only one similar-sounding script in the public section.
Kudos go to jbneto with his Accum/ Dist + 200 EMA which gave me the inspiration.
It has a EMA200, and its focus is on the daily pivot price.
RedK EVEREX - Effort Versus Results ExplorerRedK EVEREX is an experimental indicator that explores "Volume Price Analysis" basic concepts and Wyckoff law "Effort versus Result" - by inspecting the relative volume (effort) and the associated (relative) price action (result) for each bar - showing the analysis as an easy to read "stacked bands" visual. From that analysis, we calculate a "Relative Rate of Flow" - an easy to use +100/-100 oscilator that can be used to trigger a signal when a bullish or bearish mode is detected for a certain user-selected length of bars.
Basic Concepts of VPA
-------------------------------
(The topics of VPA & Wyckoff Effort vs Results law are too comprehensive to cover here - So here's just a very basic summary - please review these topics in detail in various sources available here in TradingView or on the web)
* Volume Price Analysis (VPA) is the examination of the number of shares or contracts of a security that have been traded in a given period, and the associated price movement. By analyzing trends in volume in conjunction with price movements, traders can determine the significance of changes in price and what may unfold in the near future.
* Oftentimes, high volumes of trading can infer a lot about investors’ outlook on a market or security. A significant price increase along with a significant volume increase, for example, could be a credible sign of a continued bullish trend or a bullish reversal. Adversely, a significant price decrease with a significant volume increase can point to a continued bearish trend or a bearish trend reversal.
* Incorporating volume into a trading decision can help an investor to have a more balanced view of all the broad market factors that could be influencing a security’s price, which helps an investor to make a more informed decision.
* Wyckoff's law "Effort versus results" dictates that large effort is expected to be accompanied with big results - which means that we should expect to see a big price move (result) associated with a large relative volume (effort) for a certain trading period (bar).
* The way traders use this concept in chart analysis is to mainly look for imbalances or invalidation. for example, when we observe a large relative volume that is associated with very limited price change - that should trigger an early flag/warning sign that the current price trend is facing challenges and may be an early sign of "reversal" - this applies in both bearish and bullish conditions. on the other hand, when price starts to trend in a certain direction and that's associated with increasing volume, that can act as kind of validation, or a confirmation that the market supports that move.
How does EVEREX work
---------------------------------
* EVEREX inspects each bar and calculates a relative value for volume (effort) and "strength of price movement" (result) compared to a specified lookback period. The results are then visualized as stacked bands - the lower band represents the relative volume, the upper band represents the relative price strength - with clear color coding for easier analysis.
* The scale of the band is initially set to 100 (each band can occupy up to 50) - and that can be changed in the settings to 200 or 400 - mainly to allow a "zoom in" on the bands.
* Reading the resulting stacked bands makes it easier to see "balanced" volume/price action (where both bands are either equally strong, or equally weak), or when there's imbalance between volume and price (for example, a compression bar will show with high volume band and very small/tiny price action band) - another favorite pattern in VPA is the "Ease of Move", which will show as a relatively small volume band associated with a large "price action band" (either bullish or bearish) .. and so on.
* a bit of a techie piece: why the use of a custom "Normalize()" function to calculate "relative" values in EVEREX?
When we evaluate a certain value against an average (for example, volume) we need a mechanism to deal with "super high" values that largely exceed that average - I also needed a mechanism that mimics how a trader looks at a volume bar and decides that this volume value is super low, low, average, above average, high or super high -- the issue with using a stoch() function, which is the usual technique for comparing a data point against a lookback average, is that this function will produce a "zero" for low values, and cause a large distortion of the next few "ratios" when super large values occur in the data series - i researched multiple techniques here and decided to use the custom Normalize() function - and what i found is, as long as we're applying the same formula consistently to the data series, since it's all relative to itself, we can confidently use the result. Please feel free to play around with this part further if you like - the code is commented for those who would like to research this further.
* Overall, the hope is to make the bar-by-bar analysis easier and faster for traders who apply VPA concepts in their trading
What is RROF?
--------------------------
* Once we have the values of relative volume and relative price strength, it's easy from there to combine these values into a moving index that can be used to track overall strength and detect reversals in market direction - if you think about it this a very similar concept to a volume-weighted RSI. I call that index the "Relative Rate of Flow" - or RROF (cause we're not using the direct volume and price values in the calculation, but rather relative values that we calculated with the proprietary "Normalize" function in the script.
* You can show RROF as a single or double-period - and you can customize it in terms of smoothing, and signal line - and also utilize the basic alerts to get notified when a change in strength from one side to the other (bullish vs bearish) is detected
* In the chart above, you can see how the RROF was able to detect change in market condition from Bearsh to Bullish - then from Bullish to Bearish for TSLA with good accuracy.
Other Usage Options in EVEREX
------------------------------------
* I wrote EVEREX with a lot of flexibility and utilization in mind, while focusing on a clean and easy to use visual - EVEREX should work with any time frame and any instrument - in instruments with no volume data, only price data will be used.
* You can completely hide the "EVEREX bands" and use EVEREX as a single or dual period strength indicator (by exposing the Bias/Sentiment plot which is hidden by default) -
here's how this setup would look like - in this mode, you will basically be using EVEREX the same way you're using a volume-weighted RSI
* or you can hide the bias/sentiment, and expose the Bulls & Bears plots (using the indicator's "Style" tab), and trade it like a Bull/Bear Pressure Index like this
* you can choose Moving Average type for most plot elements in EVEREX, including how to deal with the Lookback averaging
* you can set EVEREX to a different time frame than the chart
* did i mention basic alerts in this v1.0 ?? There's room to add more VPA-specific alerts in future version (for example, when Ease-of-Move or Compression bars are detected...etc) - let me know if the comments what you want to see
Final Thoughts
--------------------
* EVEREX can be used for bar-by-bar VPA analysis - There are so much literature out there about VPA and it's highly recommended that traders read more about what VPA is and how it works - as it adds an interesting (and critical) dimension to technical analysis and will improve decision making
* RROF is a "strength indicator" - it does not track price values (levels) or momentum - as you will see when you use it, the price can be moving up, while the RROF signal line starts moving down, reflecting decreasing strength (or otherwise, increasing bear strength) - So if you incorporate EVEREX in your trading you will need to use it alongside other momentum and price value indicators (like MACD, MA's, Trend Channels, Support & Resistance Lines, Fib / Donchian..etc) - to use for trade confirmation

🎓 HOW IT WORKS
ORDER BLOCKS: Identified at the last candle before a Break of Structure. These represent institutional supply and demand zones. Volume is estimated based on candle characteristics and displayed as horizontal bars.
MARKET STRUCTURE: Tracks pivot highs and lows to determine if price is making Higher Highs/Higher Lows (bullish structure) or Lower Highs/Lower Lows (bearish structure). BOS indicates trend continuation, while CHoCH signals potential trend reversal.
LIQUIDITY: Swing highs represent Buy Side Liquidity where short positions have their stop losses. Swing lows represent Sell Side Liquidity where long positions have stop losses. The indicator tracks when these levels are "swept" by price.
FAIR VALUE GAPS: Three-candle patterns where the current candle's range doesn't overlap with the candle two bars ago, creating price imbalances that often get filled later.
📚 BEST PRACTICES
• Use on all timeframes - Auto-adjust feature optimizes settings automatically
• Look for confluence - Best setups occur when multiple concepts align (e.g., Order Block + liquidity sweep + discount zone)
• Consider risk/reward - Use Premium/Discount zones to identify favorable entry areas
• Respect market context - Order Blocks in the direction of overall trend tend to be more reliable
• Volume matters - Higher volume percentages in the expected direction may indicate stronger zones

Weis Wave Volume MTF 🎯 Indicator Name
Weis Wave Volume (Multi‑Timeframe) — adapted from the original “Weis Wave Volume by LazyBear.”
This version adds multi‑timeframe (MTF) readings, configurable colors, font size, and screen position for clear dashboard‑style display.
🧠 Concept Background — What is Weis Wave Volume (WWV)?
The Weis Wave Volume indicator originates from Wyckoff and David Weis’ techniques.
Its purpose is to link price movement “waves” with the amount of traded volume to reveal how strong or weak each wave is.
Instead of showing bars one by one, WWV accumulates the total volume while price keeps moving in the same direction.
When price direction changes (up → down or down → up), it:
Finishes the previous wave volume total.
Starts a new wave and begins accumulating again.
Those wave volumes help traders see:
Effort vs Result: Big volume with small price move ⇒ absorption; low volume with big move ⇒ weak participation.
Trend confirmation or exhaustion: High volume waves in trend direction strengthen it, while low‑volume waves hint exhaustion.
⚙️ How this Script Works
Trend & Wave Detection
Compares close with the previous bar to determine up or down movement (mov).
Detects trend reversals (when mov direction changes).
Builds “waves,” each representing a continuous run of bars in one direction.
Volume Accumulation
While price keeps the same direction, the script adds each bar’s volume to the running total (vol).
When direction flips, it resets that total and starts a new wave.
Multi‑Timeframe Computation
Calculates these wave volumes on three timeframes at once, chosen dynamically:
Active Chart Timeframe Displays WWV for:
1 min 1 min
5 min 5 min
15 min 15 min
Any other Chart TF
It uses request.security() to pull each timeframe’s latest WWV value and current wave direction.
Visual Output
Instead of plotting histogram bars, it shows a table with three numeric values:
WWV (1): 25.3 M | (15): 312 M | (240): 2.46 B
Each value is color‑coded:
user‑selected Uptrend Color when price wave = up
user‑selected Downtrend Color when wave = down
You can position this small table in any corner/center (top / bottom × left / center / right).
Font size is user‑adjustable (Tiny → Huge).
📈 How Traders Use It
Quickly gauge buying vs selling effort across multiple horizons.
Compare short‑term wave volume to higher‑timeframe waves to spot:
Alignment → all up and big volumes = strong trend
Divergence → small or opposite‑colored higher‑TF wave = potential reversal or pause
Combine with Wyckoff, VSA, or standard trend analysis to judge if a breakout or pullback has real participation.
🧩 Key Features of This Version
Feature Description
Multi‑Timeframe Panel Displays WWV values for 3 selected TFs at once
Dynamic TF Mapping Auto‑adjusts which TFs to use based on chart
Up/Down Color Coding Customizable colors for wave direction
Adjustable Font and Placement Set font size (Tiny→Huge) and screen corner/center
No Histograms Keeps chart clean; acts as a compact WWV dashboard
alsubihi.2Advanced Market Structure Indicator
This custom-built indicator provides an in-depth analysis of market structure changes to help traders identify key price levels, trends, and potential reversals. It combines multiple tools to give you a clearer picture of market behavior and improve your decision-making process.
Key Features:
Break of Structure (BOS):
The BOS indicator identifies significant changes in market structure, marking when the price breaks previous highs or lows, signaling a potential trend shift. Green lines represent upward breaks (bullish trend), while red lines show downward breaks (bearish trend).
Change of Character (Choch):
This feature helps to highlight subtle shifts in market dynamics. A change in character (Choch) indicates when the market transitions between bullish or bearish behavior. Green indicates a bullish character change, while red shows a bearish one.
Premium vs Discount Zones:
The indicator identifies price levels that are considered 'Premium' (high price levels) and 'Discount' (low price levels), assisting traders in recognizing overbought or oversold conditions and making better trading decisions based on market conditions.
Support and Resistance Levels:
Automatically drawn support and resistance lines are included to show critical price areas where reversals or breakouts might occur, helping traders anticipate price action.
Equilibrium Zone:
This is the price level where supply and demand balance out, acting as a key reference point for identifying potential market reversals or continuation.
Why Use This Indicator?
This all-in-one tool helps traders make informed decisions by combining multiple technical analysis concepts into a single, easy-to-use indicator. It reduces the complexity of analyzing price action and allows traders to quickly identify potential entry and exit points with greater accuracy.

Down bar: choose Close < PrevClose or Close < Open.
Low volume: Volume < SMA(Volume, len) × threshold (e.g., 0.7).
Optional volume lower than the prior two bars (reduces noise).
Optional narrow spread: range (H–L) below its average.
Optional close position: close in the upper half of the bar.
Optional trend filter: only mark NS above or below an EMA (or any).
Optional wide-bar exclusion: skip unusually wide bars.
Visuals & outputs
Blue dot below each NS bar (optional bar tint).
Separate pane showing Relative Volume (vol / volSMA) to gauge effort.
Built-in alertcondition to trigger notifications when NS prints.
Inputs (high level)
lenVol: Volume SMA length.
ratioVol: Volume threshold vs. average (e.g., 0.7 = 70%).
usePrev2: Require volume below each of the prior two bars.
useNarrow + lenRange + ratioRange: Narrow-bar filter.
useClosePos + minClosePos: Close in upper portion of the bar.
downBarMode: Define “down bar” logic.
trendFiltOn, trendLen, trendSide: EMA trend filter.
useWideFilter, lenRangeWide, wideThreshold: Skip wide bars.
How to use (Wyckoff/VSA context)
Treat NS as a test of supply: price dips, but volume is light and close holds up.
Stronger when it prints near support/LPS within a re-accumulation structure.
Confirmation (recommended): within 1–3 bars, see demand—e.g., break above the NS high with expanding volume (above average or above the prior two bars). Many traders place a buy-stop just above the NS high; common stops are below the NS low or the most recent swing low.
Scanning tip
TradingView’s stock screener can’t consume Pine directly.
Use a Watchlist Custom Column that reports “bars since NS” to sort symbols (0 = NS on the latest bar). A companion column script is provided separately.
Notes & limitations
Works on any timeframe (intraday/daily/weekly), but context matters.
Expect false positives around news, gaps, or illiquid symbols—combine with structure (trend, S/R, phases) and risk management.
