Liquidity X-Ray: Whale Traps [@Ash_TheTrader]👁️ Liquidity X-Ray: The Institutional Edge
Stop Trading Blind. See Inside the Candle.
Ninety percent of retail traders only see the outer shell of a candlestick—the Open, High, Low, and Close. They are trading blind to the actual battle that took place during that candle's formation.
Institutions, however, use expensive Order Flow software to see where aggressive buying or selling is happening in real-time.
The Liquidity X-Ray Strategy , developed by @Ash_TheTrader , levels the playing field. It uses advanced Intrabar Analysis to simulate institutional order flow footprints directly on your chart, automating powerful reversal signals based on "Absorption."
---
🧠 The Concept: Intrabar Analysis & Delta
How does it work?
Imagine a single 1-Hour candle . Inside that candle, there are sixty 1-Minute candles hidden from view.
This strategy performs an "X-Ray" scan. It tunnels into the lower timeframes (e.g., 5-minute data inside a 1-hour bar) to calculate the Net Delta —the difference between aggressive buying volume and aggressive selling volume.
Cyan Candles: Indicate that aggressive buyers (hitting the Ask) won the internal battle.
Magenta Candles: Indicate that aggressive sellers (hitting the Bid) won the internal battle.
But knowing who won isn't enough. The real edge comes from identifying Absorption .
---
🎯 The Signals: Detecting Traps & Shields
The core philosophy of this strategy by @Ash_TheTrader is simple: Identify where high effort yields low results.
When massive volume comes in, but price refuses to move, it means one side is being "absorbed" by a larger player. This is often the precursor to a violent reversal.
1. The Bear Trap (🪤)
What you see: A candle with massive volume and aggressive internal buying (positive Delta), yet the candle body remains small and fails to push price significantly higher.
The Psychology: Retail traders are FOMO-buying aggressively at a high. Institutional "Whales" are sitting on the other side, passively selling into this demand, absorbing all the buy orders.
The Result: Once the buyers are exhausted, the trap snaps shut, and price reverses downward.
Strategy Action: Enters a SHORT position.
2. The Bull Shield (🛡️)
What you see: A candle with massive volume and aggressive internal selling (negative Delta), yet the candle body remains small and fails to push price lower.
The Psychology: A "Stop Run" is occurring. Retail traders are panic-selling. Smart money is stepping in like a shield, absorbing all the sell pressure at a fixed level.
The Result: Once the sellers are exhausted, there is no one left to sell, and price rallies upward.
Strategy Action: Enters a LONG position.

⚡ Strategy Features & The Viral Dashboard
This isn't just an indicator; it's a complete, automated trading system.
Automated Execution: The script takes the trades for you when a Shield or Trap is confirmed upon candle close.
Smart Risk Management: It automatically places Stop Losses beyond the wick of the signal candle and targets a default 2:1 Risk/Reward ratio .
The Live Performance Panel:
Look at the top right of your chart. The strategy features a built-in, professional-grade dashboard that displays real-time statistics. You can instantly see the strategy's Win Rate and Net Profit over the current historical data.
"Numbers don't lie. Don't just guess if a setup works; watch the win rate adjust in real-time." — @Ash_TheTrader

🛠️ How to Use This Strategy
For the best results, follow these institutional guidelines:
1. Timeframe: This strategy is most effective on Higher Timeframes where institutional volume is dominant. We recommend the 1-Hour (1H) or 4-Hour (4H) charts.
2. Intrabar Resolution (Settings): In the strategy settings, ensure the "Intrabar Resolution" is set lower than your chart timeframe. The default is 5 minutes , which is ideal for scanning inside 1H or 4H candles.
3. Confluence: While the strategy can be traded standalone, the best signals often occur near major support/resistance zones or key Fibonacci levels.

ATR Bands (MA Distance)ATR Bands (MA Distance) plots volatility-based bands at a multiple of ATR away from a selected moving average.
Unlike percentage envelopes or standard deviation bands, this indicator measures distance from the moving average using ATR, representing the market’s normal “breathing range” rather than statistical probability.
Key Features
The center line is a selectable moving average (EMA, SMA, RMA/Wilder, or WMA).
Upper and lower bands are calculated as:
Moving Average ± ATR × Multiplier
Band width automatically adapts to changing market volatility.
Designed for consistent use across different markets and timeframes without parameter re-optimization.
Non-repainting: all values are calculated only from confirmed historical bars.
Intended Use
ATR Bands (MA Distance) is best used as a context and preparation tool , not as a direct entry or exit signal.
Typical use cases include:
Identifying areas where price is extended relative to its recent volatility.
Visualizing normal vs. stretched price distance from the moving average.
Supporting range-based analysis or trade preparation when combined with other indicators (e.g., oscillators).
Important Notes / How NOT to Use
This indicator does NOT generate buy or sell signals by itself .
Touching or crossing a band does not imply an automatic reversal.
In strong trending markets, price may stay outside the bands for extended periods.
ATR Bands should not be interpreted as overbought/oversold levels on their own.
This indicator does NOT repaint. Once a bar is closed, its values will not change.
For best results:
Use ATR Bands as a preparation zone, then wait for confirmation from your own entry logic.
Disable or ignore band-based mean-reversion ideas during strong trend conditions.
Concept Summary (Short)
ATR Bands (MA Distance) visualize how far price has moved from its moving average in terms of volatility, without repainting and without relying on percentage deviation or statistical assumptions.
Optional Short Description (Preview)
Volatility-based, non-repainting ATR bands plotted at a distance from a moving average.
Designed for market context and trade preparation — not standalone signals.
KINETIC GOLD NQ Velocity Breakout [Ash_TheTrader]🚀 Stop Guessing. Start Scalping with Physics.
Introducing the KINETIC GOLD NQ ⚡ VELOCITY BREAKOUT System
Author: Ash_TheTrader
Assets: Gold (XAUUSD), Nasdaq (US100), Bitcoin (BTC)
Style: High-Frequency Scalping (M1/M5)
---
🛑 The Problem: Why Most Indicators Fail
You’ve been there. The RSI says "Oversold," so you buy. But price keeps crashing. The Moving Average crosses over, so you enter. But the trend is already over.
Why? Because those indicators are lagging . They tell you what happened 10 candles ago.
⚡ The Solution: The "Physics" of Price
Markets move like objects in the real world. They have Velocity (Speed) and Momentum (Mass).
The Kinetic Velocity Breakout (KMB) system doesn't look at "Overbought" or "Oversold." It looks for FORCE .
It answers one simple question: Is the market moving fast enough to pay me?
---
🧠 The 4 "Smart Logic" Features
1. The Velocity Speedometer 🏎️
Most candles are "noise." This system ignores them. It uses a Normalized Volatility Engine to detect when price hits "WARP SPEED".
• Blue: Slow (Cruising). Don't touch.
• Yellow: Accelerating. Get ready.
• Red: WARP SPEED. Institutional money is entering.
2. The 1.5x Impulse Rule 💥
The algorithm strictly enforces the "1.5x Law." A signal ONLY fires if the breakout candle is 1.5 times larger than the average of the last 3 candles.
• Result? No more fakeouts. We only trade real expansions.
3. "Smart Mode" AI Dashboard 🖥️
A heads-up display (HUD) lives on your chart, auto-detecting your trading environment:
• Auto-Session: Tells you if you are in London, New York, or Asia.
• Risk Mode: Shows if you are using "Aggressive" or "Normal" logic.
• Status: Gives you a text readout like "READY ⚡" or "WAIT..."
4. Auto-Pilot Risk Management 🛡️
Scalping is fast. You don't have time to calculate Pips.
• The script draws the lines for you.
• As soon as a "ROCKET" signal appears, a Green TP Line (2x Reward) and Red SL Line appear instantly.
---
🎮 How to Trade: The 3-Step "Kinetic" Strategy
This strategy is designed for Gold (XAUUSD) and Nasdaq (US100) on the 5-Minute Timeframe .
Step 1: The "Yellow" Warning ⚠️
Watch the Smart Structure Lines (Dashed Lines).
• If the candles turn Yellow or the Dashboard says "FAST" , wake up.
• This means pressure is building against a key level.
Step 2: The "Warp" Trigger 🚀
Wait for a Confirmed Breakout . You are looking for:
1. A candle closes OUTSIDE the dashed structure line.
2. The candle color is NEON CYAN (Bullish) or NEON MAGENTA (Bearish).
3. The Signal Label appears: "ROCKET" (Buy) or "DROP" (Sell).
👉 Rule: No Label? No Trade. The 1.5x Logic saves you from bad trades.
Step 3: The Execution 💰
1. Enter at the close of the signal candle.
2. Stop Loss: Place it exactly on the Red Line provided by the indicator.
3. Take Profit: Place it on the Green Line .
4. Walk away. Let the physics work.
---
⚙️ Customizing Your Style
The script comes with two built-in "Personalities":
🛡️ Normal Scalper (Default)
• Best for: New traders, Funded Accounts.
• Logic: Waits for strong confirmation. High Win Rate.
• Risk: 1:2 Risk/Reward.
⚠️ QuickScalper (Aggressive)
• Best for: Gold M1, Volatility Hunters.
• Logic: Enters earlier on 1.2x Impulse. More signals, faster exits.
• Risk: 1:1.5 Risk/Reward (Grab the cash and go).

Neuro-Adaptive Reversal SystemThe Neuro-Adaptive Reversal System (NARS) is a sophisticated mean-reversion tool designed to identify market exhaustion points. Unlike static oscillators that rely on fixed overbought/oversold levels, NARS utilizes a proprietary volatility engine that adapts its sensitivity based on user-selected "Aggression Profiles."
Concepts & Underlying Calculations:
1. The "Neuro-Adaptive" Logic (Dynamic Parameter Mapping): The core of this script is a logic engine that maps specific mathematical constants to a user-friendly interface. It adjusts the Lookback Memory and Standard Deviation sensitivity instantly based on the selected mode:
Sniper Mode: Uses a deep lookback (60 bars) and high deviation (3.0 ATR). This filters out noise to target only extreme volatility breaches.
Aggressive Mode: Uses balanced settings (30 bars / 2.2 ATR).
Very Aggressive Mode: Uses shallow memory (14 bars / 1.6 ATR) to scalp minor volatility pops.
2. MLMA (MakeLegacy Moving Average): The trend baseline is not a simple EMA. It is an Efficiency Ratio (ER) based Moving Average.
The Math: It calculates the ratio of the net price change (Signal) to the sum of absolute price changes (Noise) over a specific period.
The Result: When the market is trending efficiently, the MA smooths out (Blue). When the market is chopping (inefficient), the MA flattens instantly (Red), signaling a "No Trade" or consolidation zone.
3. Volatility Breach Channels: The Reversal Channels are calculated by taking the historical Highest High or Lowest Low (offset by one bar to prevent repainting the current breakout) and adding/subtracting a multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
Signal Trigger: A signal is generated only when the current price creates a "Volatilty Breach"—physically piercing this dynamic volatility envelope.
4. Built-in Simulation Engine: The script includes a state-machine that simulates trades based on the generated signals. It calculates theoretical Stop Losses and Take Profits based on the ATR at the moment of entry, tracking the Profit Factor (PF) of these signals in real-time on the dashboard.
Key Features:
Resizeable Dashboard: A fully customizable panel showing the Profit Factor for Longs and Shorts, helping you validate if the current settings suit the asset you are trading.
3 Distinct Modes: Switch between Sniper, Aggressive, and Very Aggressive to tune the script to current market volatility.
Visual Trend Identification: The MLMA changes color to visually indicate trend direction and market efficiency.
How to Use:
Select Mode: Start with "Sniper" for higher timeframes or "Aggressive" for scalping.
Wait for Breach: Look for price to pierce the Upper (Red) or Lower (Blue) Reversal Channel.
Confirm Entry: Wait for the corresponding "L" (Long) or "S" (Short) label.
Manage Trade: The script plots theoretical TP (Take Profit) and SL (Stop Loss) lines based on volatility. Use these or the MLMA color change as your exit signals.
Settings:
AI Aggressiveness: Controls the sensitivity of the signals.
Dashboard Position/Size: Moves the table to your preferred location on the chart.
Visual Toggles: Turn off the MLMA or Channels to clean up your chart.
Disclaimer: The "Performance Dashboard" is a theoretical simulation based on the script's internal logic and past price action. It does not represent actual live trading results. Use proper risk management.
Padder Scalp - Manipulation Triangle + First 15m Session BoxThis indicator combines intraday manipulation detection with session‑based structure and key candlestick pattern labeling to support precision scalp trading.
1. Manipulation Candle Detection (Daily ATR‑Based)
The script calculates the Daily ATR(14) and compares each intraday candle’s range to it.
If a candle’s range is ≥ 20% of the daily ATR, it is flagged as a potential manipulation candle.
A purple triangle is plotted beneath any candle that meets this threshold, helping traders quickly spot abnormal volatility spikes that often precede liquidity grabs or engineered moves.
2. First 15‑Minute RTH Session Box (9:30–9:45 AM)
Designed for use on a 15‑minute chart, the script automatically identifies the first bar of the regular trading session (RTH).
When the 9:30–9:45 candle prints:
- Its high and low are captured
- A session box is created using those levels
- The box extends across the entire trading day
This provides a consistent structural reference point for opening‑range dynamics, liquidity sweeps, and intraday bias.
3. Automatic Box Extension
Once the first RTH candle is detected, the script draws a blue box from that candle’s high/low and continuously extends it to the right for the remainder of the session.
This creates a persistent visual anchor for:
- Breakouts
- Retests
- Rejections
- Mean‑reversion scalps
4. Candlestick Pattern Detection + Labels
The script identifies and labels four high‑value reversal/continuation patterns:
- Bullish Engulfing → green label above the candle
- Bearish Engulfing → red label below the candle
- Hammer → yellow label below the candle
- Inverted Hammer → orange label above the candle
These labels help traders quickly spot actionable price‑action signals without manually scanning every bar.
Overall Purpose
This tool blends volatility‑based manipulation detection, opening‑range structure, and real‑time candlestick pattern recognition into a single, clean visual system.
It’s built for scalpers and intraday traders who rely on:
- Opening‑range levels
- Liquidity cues
- Manipulation signals
- Price‑action confirmation
to time entries with precision.

MoBo Bands - Momentum Breakout IndicatorDESCRIPTION
MoBo Bands (Momentum Breakout Bands) is a volatility-based breakout detection indicator that helps traders identify potential momentum shifts in the market. The indicator uses dynamic bands calculated from standard deviation to signal when price breaks above or below established ranges, indicating potential bullish or bearish momentum changes.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
KEY FEATURES
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
- Dynamic upper and lower bands based on standard deviation
- Color-coded bands that change based on breakout direction (green for bullish, red for bearish)
- Visual breakout arrows marking entry points above/below bands
- Optional colored fill zones between bands showing current momentum state
- Customizable displacement for band projection
- Built-in alert system for breakout and breakdown signals
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
HOW IT WORKS
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
The indicator calculates a middle line using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) with upper and lower bands positioned using standard deviation multipliers. When price closes above the upper band, a bullish breakout (green) is signaled. When price closes below the lower band, a bearish breakdown (red) is signaled. The bands and fill zones remain colored until the opposite signal occurs, providing clear visual confirmation of the current momentum state.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
CUSTOMIZABLE INPUTS
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
CALCULATION PARAMETERS:
- Price Source - Select which price data to use (default: close)
- Length - Period for SMA and standard deviation calculation (default: 10)
- Num Dev Up - Standard deviation multiplier for upper band (default: 0.8)
- Num Dev Down - Standard deviation multiplier for lower band (default: -0.8)
- Displace - Shift bands forward for projection analysis (default: 0)
DISPLAY OPTIONS:
- Colored Mobo - Enable/disable color-coded bands
- Colored Fill - Enable/disable fill zones between bands
- Break Arrows - Show/hide breakout and breakdown arrows
ALERT OPTIONS:
- Show Alerts - Enable/disable alert conditions
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
USAGE GUIDE
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Watch for price to close outside the bands as potential breakout signals:
BULLISH BREAKOUT: Green arrow appears below the lower band when price closes above the upper band, indicating upward momentum shift.
BEARISH BREAKDOWN: Red arrow appears above the upper band when price closes below the lower band, indicating downward momentum shift.
The bands also serve as dynamic support and resistance levels. When bands are green, momentum is bullish. When bands are red, momentum is bearish.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
BEST PRACTICES
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
- This indicator works well on liquid futures contracts (MNQ, MES, MYM, MGC, MCL) and major
currency pairs across multiple timeframes
- Lower deviation values (0.5-1.0) produce more frequent signals suitable for scalping
- Higher deviation values (1.5-2.5) filter for stronger breakouts ideal for swing trading
- Combine with volume indicators for additional confirmation
- Use with momentum oscillators to validate breakout strength
- Best results in trending market conditions
- Consider the overall market context and trend direction
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
ALERT CONFIGURATION
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Configure custom alerts for automated notifications:
- "MoBo BreakOUT" - Triggers on bullish breakout signals
- "MoBo BreakDOWN" - Triggers on bearish breakdown signals
Set alerts to "Once Per Bar Close" for confirmed signals and avoid false triggers during bar development.
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
IDEAL FOR
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
- Day traders and scalpers on futures markets
- Swing traders looking for momentum shifts
- Breakout trading strategies
- Trend following systems
- Works on stocks, forex, crypto, and commodities
- Effective across multiple timeframes (1min to daily)
═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Perfect for traders seeking clear visual breakout signals with minimal lag. The color-coded system and arrow markers make it easy to identify momentum changes at a glance.

In the settings, you can toggle Show Asia Session and Show London Session to enable/disable each session’s tracking and plotting entirely. For each session you can customize the High/Low line colors (Asia High Color / Asia Low Color, London High Color / London Low Color), the line width (Asia Line Width, London Line Width), and the line style (Solid/Dashed/Dotted) so you can visually prioritize London over Asia if you want. The session times are adjustable via Asia Session (CT) (default 6:00 PM–2:00 AM CT) and London Session (CT) (default 2:00 AM–8:00 AM CT). The Show Session Boxes toggle controls whether a translucent box is drawn only during each active session; box appearance is controlled by Asia Box Color and London Box Color (these colors already include opacity, so you can make them faint or more visible). The Show Labels toggle controls whether “Asia H/L” and “London H/L” labels are printed at session end; label text color is controlled by Label Text Color. Mechanically: during each session the script continuously updates that session’s running high/low; when the session ends, it draws fresh horizontal lines that extend to the right (carry forward) and it deletes the prior session’s lines/labels to prevent clutter, while boxes stop at the session end so NY stays clean.
VWATR Stop-Loss BandsPurpose
The script provides an adaptive stop‑loss framework built from VWATR, it anchors protective levels to price extremes and scales them with both volatility and volume. The objective is to create stop‑loss zones that reflect real market intensity rather than arbitrary fixed distances.
How it works
The script computes true range, multiplies it by volume, and smooths both the volume‑weighted range and raw volume using the selected moving average, their ratio forms VWATR, a volatility measure normalized by traded volume. It then calculates the standard deviation of VWATR to capture volatility‑of‑volatility. Stop‑loss levels are constructed by offsetting the low and high by one VWATR, with additional layers created by adding or subtracting one to five standard deviations. The plots use strong colors for core levels and progressively lighter tones for outer layers, establishing a clear visual hierarchy.
Rationale
This structure gives the trader stop‑loss levels that adapt to changing market conditions, expanding during high‑energy phases and contracting during quiet periods, which reduces premature stop‑outs and aligns risk with actual volatility. The standard deviation layers provide a graded map of volatility stress, allowing the user to assess how far price must travel to breach increasingly extreme thresholds. The result is a stop‑loss system that is both reactive and context‑aware, offering more informed decision‑making than static offsets.
VAM Pro (Multi-Model) [Final]Volatility Adjusted Momentum (VAM) Pro+ is a professional quantitative tool designed to measure trend strength by normalizing momentum against market volatility. Standard momentum indicators often fail during high-volatility periods because they treat every price change the same regardless of market noise. This indicator solves that problem by scaling price changes based on their statistical significance using Z-Score logic. This Pro+ version is specifically optimized for Scalping and Intraday Trading by introducing advanced volatility estimators and mathematical horizon adjustments that superior to classic standard deviation models.
The indicator allows you to choose the most suitable volatility model for your specific asset class. The Parkinson Volatility model is highly recommended for Crypto markets because it uses the High-Low range instead of just close prices, effectively capturing intraday wicks and liquidation spikes that standard deviation often misses. For Equities and Forex, the Garman-Klass model is the most efficient choice as it utilizes the full Open-High-Low-Close data set to account for opening gaps and professional trading ranges.
The mathematical core of the script features a strict Horizon Adjustment based on the Square Root of Time rule. This aligns the one-bar volatility risk with your chosen momentum lookback period to ensure a mathematically consistent calculation. By default, the script uses Logarithmic Returns to maintain scale invariance, which is critical for assets with high percentage swings like Cryptocurrencies. To trade with VAM Pro, look for the histogram color and its relation to the Zero line. A Green histogram indicates positive volatility-adjusted momentum where bulls are dominant, while a Red histogram shows bearish dominance. Values reaching the +2.0 or -2.0 Sigma levels represent statistically extreme moves that often act as exhaustion points or precede strong mean-reversion opportunities. When the histogram crosses the yellow signal line, it provides an early warning that the current momentum is fading.
Investment involves risk. The Volatility Adjusted Momentum (VAM) Pro+ is an analytical tool and does not constitute financial advice, investment recommendations, or an offer to buy or sell any security. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Market conditions can change rapidly, and technical indicators may produce false signals. Always perform your own due diligence, use proper risk management, and consult with a certified financial advisor before making any trading decisions.

Options Liquidity Meter (OLM)❓ The question behind this indicator
When trading options, it is common to experience situations where price moves in the expected direction, yet the option contract does not increase in value as anticipated.
This typically happens when one or more of the following conditions is missing:
Insufficient liquidity participation
Lack of volatility expansion
Weak or passive order flow
Options Liquidity Meter (OLM) was created to address this specific question:
“If price moves from here, are there conditions for option premiums to actually expand?”
🎯 What this indicator does
Options Liquidity Meter is a context tool, not a trading system.
It evaluates whether the current market environment is favorable for option premium expansion , based on three core engines:
Liquidity (Relative Volume)
Measures whether price movement is supported by meaningful participation.
Volatility State
Identifies compression, release, and expansion phases, where options tend to respond differently.
Order Flow Activity (OBV-based)
Acts as a proxy for active vs. passive participation, helping filter hollow moves.
These components are combined into a single, easy-to-read options context.
🟢🟡🔴 Options Context Output
The indicator displays one consolidated state:
RED — NO EXPANSION
Price may move, but option premiums often do not respond.
YELLOW — BUILDING
Liquidity or volatility is developing. Conditions are improving but not fully aligned.
GREEN — EXPANSION LIKELY
Liquidity, volatility expansion, and active flow are aligned.
This is a favorable environment for option premium expansion.
The same logic is reflected visually through the background color and summarized in the dashboard.
📊 How to read the dashboard
The dashboard shows:
Liquidity: LOW / OK / HIGH
Volatility: COMPRESSED / RELEASED / EXPANDING
Order Flow: FLAT / ACTIVE
Options Context: NO EXPANSION / BUILDING / EXPANSION LIKELY
Below, a Background Color Meaning section explains what each color represents, making the indicator intuitive and educational.
📍 Where to apply this indicator
Options Liquidity Meter must be applied to the underlying asset chart, such as:
Indices (SPY, SPX, QQQ, etc.)
Stocks
Futures
ETFs
It is not designed to be applied to option contracts themselves.
The indicator evaluates the market conditions of the underlying, which are the drivers that influence option premium behavior.
Contract selection (strike, delta, gamma, expiration) remains the trader’s responsibility.
🧠 How to use it
Use your own methodology to define:
Direction
Structure
Entries and exits
Use Options Liquidity Meter to evaluate:
Whether the current environment supports option premium expansion
If the context is RED, be cautious — price may move without rewarding options.
If the context is GREEN, the environment is statistically more favorable for options responsiveness.
🔗 Complementary tools
Options Liquidity Meter is designed to complement, not replace, other tools.
It works well alongside:
Opening Path Selector (EMA200 Context Tool)
For deciding which asset offers the cleanest directional context.
Multi-Tool VWAP + EMAs (Multi-Timeframe) + Key Levels
For in-chart structure, bias, and reference levels.
Each tool addresses a different stage of the decision process and can be used independently.

Positive Volatility Ratio (Vol+ / Vol-)
Positive Volatility Ratio (Vol+ / Vol-)
This indicator measures whether an asset’s volatility is driven mainly
by upward or downward price movements over a given time window.
How it works:
- Daily returns are calculated.
- Positive and negative returns are separated.
- The standard deviation of each group is computed.
- The Vol+ / Vol- ratio compares how much volatility comes from
upward moves versus downward moves.
Interpretation:
- Ratio > 1 → volatility dominated by upside moves (cleaner momentum).
- Ratio ≈ 1 → symmetric movement / noise.
- Ratio < 1 → volatility dominated by downside moves (not ideal for momentum).
Recommended use:
- Use as a pre-filter for the trading universe.
- Do not use as an entry or exit signal.
- Always combine with trend and liquidity filters.
Notes:
- This is not a standard or predictive indicator.
- It does not replace risk management or stop-loss rules.
- Longer lookback windows (60–120 days) tend to be more robust.

Cerber Market Regime Indicator📊 CERBER MARKET REGIME INDICATOR
A versatile momentum indicator that helps identify market regimes using Rate of Change (ROC) analysis. Designed for visualizing momentum extremes and mean-reversion zones.
═══════════════════════════════════════
🔧 TWO MODES:
▸ Fixed Mode (Default)
Uses percentage-based ROC thresholds. Simple and intuitive - when momentum exceeds +10% or drops below -10%, the indicator signals extreme conditions.
▸ Z-Score Mode
Normalizes ROC using statistical z-score, automatically adapting to each asset's volatility. A reading of +1σ or -1σ represents one standard deviation from the mean, making thresholds consistent across different assets.
═══════════════════════════════════════
⚙️ KEY SETTINGS:
• ROC Lookback: Period for calculating rate of change (default: 30 bars)
• Z-Score Window: Rolling window for mean/std calculation (default: 60 bars)
• Top/Bottom Thresholds: Configurable levels for regime identification
═══════════════════════════════════════
📈 VISUAL ELEMENTS:
• Green line: Momentum above top threshold (bullish extreme)
• Red line: Momentum below bottom threshold (bearish extreme)
• Gray line: Neutral zone between thresholds
• Dashed lines: Threshold levels
• Shaded zone: Neutral trading range
• Info table: Current mode, settings, and live values
═══════════════════════════════════════
💡 USE CASES:
• Identify overbought/oversold conditions
• Spot mean-reversion opportunities
• Gauge momentum regime for trend strategies
• Compare momentum across different assets (Z-Score mode)
• Visualize market extremes for discretionary analysis

HLRSI═══════════════════════════════════════════
HLRSI - High-Low RSI
═══════════════════════════════════════════
## Overview
HLRSI (High-Low RSI) is a dynamic RSI indicator that automatically switches between High RSI and Low RSI based on market conditions. This allows traders to focus on the most relevant momentum — bullish momentum in uptrends and bearish momentum in downtrends.
## How It Works
- When HL2 RSI is above its Bollinger Band middle line → displays High RSI (based on candle highs)
- When HL2 RSI is below its Bollinger Band middle line → displays Low RSI (based on candle lows)
This adaptive approach provides clearer signals compared to traditional RSI, which uses only closing prices.
## Components
1. **RSI Line (Purple)**: The adaptive High-Low RSI
2. **RSI HMA (Yellow)**: Hull Moving Average of RSI - acts as a trend filter, similar to MACD signal line
3. **Bollinger Bands (Green)**: Dynamic overbought/oversold boundaries that adapt to volatility
## How to Use
### Trend Identification
- RSI above HMA → Bullish momentum
- RSI below HMA → Bearish momentum
- RSI crossing HMA → Potential trend change
### Entry Signals
- **Long**: RSI crosses above HMA near oversold zone or lower Bollinger Band
- **Short**: RSI crosses below HMA near overbought zone or upper Bollinger Band
### Overbought/Oversold
- RSI touching upper Bollinger Band → Overbought (potential reversal or pullback)
- RSI touching lower Bollinger Band → Oversold (potential reversal or bounce)
## Parameters
- **RSI Length** (default: 50): Period for RSI calculation
- **HMA Length** (default: 200): Period for trend-filtering HMA
- **BB Length** (default: 200): Period for Bollinger Bands
- **BB Multiplier** (default: 2.8): Standard deviation multiplier
## Tips
- Combine with price action or other indicators for confirmation
- Adjust BB Multiplier to control sensitivity (lower = more signals, higher = fewer but stronger signals)
