Big Trades Whale Detector [Volume Anomalies] By HKOverview The "Big Trade Detector" helps you spot institutional footprints by identifying volume anomalies that act as outliers compared to recent history. It uses statistical analysis (Standard Deviation) to filter out noise and highlight only significant buying or selling pressure.
Features:
Volume Decomposition: Approximates buy/sell volume based on price action within the candle (Close vs. Range).
3-Tier Detection: Uses dynamic thresholds to categorize volume spikes into Small, Medium, and Extreme events.
Smart Calculation: Compares current volume against the previous average to detect sudden shifts in momentum.
Visuals:
Green Circles (Below Bar): Unusual Buying Pressure (Support defense or Breakout).
Red Circles (Above Bar): Unusual Selling Pressure (Resistance defense or Dump).
Size Matters: The larger the circle, the higher the standard deviation (Sigma) of that volume event.

Elev8+ Impulse LevelsElev8+ Impulse Levels | Smart Support & Resistance
Ever notice price rejecting “empty” areas on the chart—like it remembered something that isn’t obvious?
That “something” is often Institutional Impulse : footprints left behind by large, aggressive moves that get defended again days or weeks later .
Elev8+ Impulse Levels automatically detects these moments and projects the most important prices forward so you can see the structure most traders miss.
— — —
🧠 How It Works (The Logic)
This is not a typical support/resistance tool. It does not hunt swing highs/lows.
It looks for Market Intent —the “Perfect Storm” when two conditions align:
Volume Spike — buying/selling pressure significantly exceeds average volume (multiplier-based).
Volatility Expansion — the candle body is unusually large relative to recent ATR.
When both occur, the script marks the event and treats the impulse close as a key “line in the sand” that can influence future reactions.
— — —
🎯 How to Use These Levels
The script includes a Smart Line behavior that changes level styling based on how price interacts with it—so you can quickly separate two core setups:
1) The Defense (Bounce)
Visual: 🟢 Solid line (Fresh / Untouched)
What it means: Price has not yet traded through or “invalidated” the level.
What to look for: First return to the level → rejection / bounce behavior.
Why it matters: Large players often defend prior entries; first tests can react sharply.
2) The Flip (Break & Retest)
Visual: ◌ Dotted line (Broken / Re-priced)
What it means: A candle has closed through the level.
What to look for: Price returns to the dotted level from the other side (“kiss”) → continuation.
Why it matters: Broken support can act as resistance (and vice versa), similar to a breaker concept.
— — —
✨ Key Features
Smart Visualization — levels automatically transition from solid → dotted when broken to reduce chart noise.
Impulse Candle Highlighting — see the exact candle that created the level (origin clarity).
Fully Customizable Sensitivity — tune volume + size thresholds for Crypto, Forex, Futures, or Stocks.

🚀 The Elev8+ Workflow
Think of Impulse Levels as your map : it shows where reactions are most likely.
For entry timing, pair it with Elev8+ Pro Reversal to confirm the moment price reacts at these high-value zones.

SCOTTGO - Buy Sell Volume📊 SCOTTGO - Buy Sell Volume Bars - Delta - Up Down Volume Bars
This indicator disaggregates the total volume traded on each bar into estimated Buying Volume and Selling Volume to visualize market pressure and dominance directly in a dedicated sub-pane.
Key Features:
Volume Disaggregation: Uses a standard formula to estimate how much of a bar's total volume was associated with upward (buying) pressure and how much was associated with downward (selling) pressure.
Visual Clarity: Plots the Buy Volume (teal, upward) and Sell Volume (red, downward) as separate columns against a transparent total volume background, allowing for quick assessment of pressure balance.
Real-Time Badge: A dynamic badge is fixed to the corner of the chart (default: Top Right) providing a numeric summary of the latest bar:
Buy %: Percentage of the bar's total volume estimated as Buying Volume.
Sell %: Percentage of the bar's total volume estimated as Selling Volume.
Delta %: The magnitude of the volume difference (Delta) as a percentage of total volume, indicating the strength of the dominant side.
Dominance Indicator: The background color of the badge changes dynamically to immediately signal whether Buying (customizable color, default: Teal) or Selling (customizable color, default: Red) pressure was dominant on the current bar.
Usage:
Traders can use this tool to identify periods of heavy accumulation (high Buy Volume) or distribution (high Sell Volume), providing insight into the conviction behind price movements.

Ultimate Institutional Order Flow Pro [Pointalgo]Ultimate Institutional Order Flow (UIOF Pro)
Ultimate Institutional Order Flow (UIOF Pro) is a multi-component market analysis indicator designed to study order flow behavior, liquidity interaction, volatility structure, and session-based participation.
It integrates several commonly used market structure and order-flow concepts into a single visual framework.
This script focuses on context and alignment, not on isolated signals.
Core Objective
The indicator aims to identify areas where price, volume, liquidity, and structure appear aligned in the same direction.
It does this by combining:
VWAP behavior
Volume participation
Cumulative delta analysis
Liquidity pool interaction
Order blocks and fair value gaps
Market structure shifts
Session and higher-timeframe confirmation
VWAP & Volatility Framework
Calculates VWAP using session, weekly, or monthly anchors.
Optional VWAP standard-deviation bands visualize price dispersion.
VWAP slope and price position are used to classify directional bias.
VWAP is treated as a dynamic equilibrium reference rather than a signal.
Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD)
Estimates buy and sell pressure based on intrabar price movement.
Tracks cumulative delta and a smoothed delta average.
Uses delta change normalization to highlight abnormal activity.
Detects potential delta divergences when price and participation differ.
CVD is used to assess whether participation supports or contradicts price movement.
Liquidity Zones & Sweeps
Identifies recent swing highs and lows as potential liquidity pools.
Tracks buy-side and sell-side liquidity areas.
Flags conditions where price sweeps liquidity beyond recent extremes.
Liquidity interaction is treated as context, not prediction.
Order Blocks
1. Detects potential bullish and bearish order blocks using:
Candle structure
Volatility thresholds
Volume confirmation
2.Highlights areas where strong participation followed opposing price movement.
Order blocks are visual reference zones and do not imply guaranteed reactions.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG)
Identifies imbalance zones where price moves without overlapping structure.
Filters gaps using ATR-based size conditions.
Visual shading is used to highlight imbalance areas.
These zones may represent inefficient price movement requiring further interaction.
Volume Profile & Point of Control (POC)
Builds a simplified volume profile over a configurable lookback window.
Determines the price level with the highest traded volume (POC).
POC is used as a reference for acceptance or rejection behavior.
Market Structure
Evaluates recent highs and lows to identify structure breaks.
Classifies directional structure as bullish, bearish, or neutral.
Structure is used as a directional filter rather than a trigger.
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation
Optional higher-timeframe confirmation aligns lower-timeframe behavior with broader context.
Prevents analysis from relying on isolated timeframe conditions.
Session Filtering
1. Allows analysis to be limited to specific trading sessions.
2. Helps reduce signals during low-participation periods.
3. Session logic affects signal eligibility, not calculations.
Signal Logic
Signals are generated only when multiple independent conditions align, including:
Liquidity interaction
Order block presence
VWAP bias
Delta confirmation
Structure alignment
Volume participation
Optional higher-timeframe confirmation
Active trading session
Strong continuation conditions are also highlighted when price, volume, and participation remain aligned.
Signals represent confluence states, not trade instructions.
Dashboard Summary
A real-time dashboard summarizes:
VWAP bias and slope
CVD strength and direction
Delta behavior
Market structure state
Higher-timeframe context
Volume conditions
Liquidity pool counts
Session activity
This provides a high-level snapshot of market conditions without manual calculation.
Alerts are available for:
Institutional alignment conditions
Strong continuation pressure
Liquidity sweeps
Delta divergences
Alerts are informational and reflect internal indicator states only.
Usage Notes
Designed for analytical interpretation and market study.
Best used alongside price action and risk management methods.
Performance depends on instrument liquidity and volume quality.
All visual elements can be individually enabled or disabled.

ORB Pro - NY Opening Range Breakout by Elev8+ORB Pro - NY Opening Range Breakout | Smart Support & Resistance
ORB Pro is a comprehensive, professional-grade toolkit designed for intraday traders who rely on the Opening Range Breakout (ORB) strategy.
Unlike standard ORB indicators that simply draw lines, this suite offers a complete dashboard-driven system that monitors four distinct sessions simultaneously, providing real-time status updates and precision alerts.
— — —
🎯 What is the Opening Range Breakout (ORB)?
The Opening Range is the price range established during the first period of the trading session (e.g., the first 15 or 30 minutes). This period represents the initial balance between buyers and sellers. A breakout from this range often signals the likely trend direction for the remainder of the session.
— — —
🚀 Key Features
1. Multi-ORB Monitoring
Stop switching settings constantly. This suite monitors four key ranges at once:
Pre-Market 15m (08:00 – 08:15 ET)
Pre-Market 30m (08:00 – 08:30 ET)
NY Cash Open 15m (09:30 – 09:45 ET)
NY Cash Open 30m (09:30 – 10:00 ET)
2. Smart Status Dashboard
A compact panel in the bottom-right corner gives you the live state of every session:
⏳ Waiting: The session has not started yet.
⚡ Forming: The range is currently being built.
↔️ Range: The range has formed, but price is still contained within the range.
🚀 BULL / 📉 BEAR: A confirmed breakout has occurred.
⛔ OFF: The session is disabled in settings.
3. "Dynamic Resolution" Technology
This is a unique pro feature.
Precision: The script always calculates the High/Low levels using 1-minute data , ensuring your support/resistance lines are pixel-perfect regardless of your chart timeframe.
Flexibility: Breakout signals (Alerts/Labels) are triggered based on your current chart timeframe. This allows you to trade a 5m or 15m breakout strategy while keeping 1m-level precision on your levels.
4. Visual Clarity
Breakout Labels: Automatically plots "BULL" or "BEAR" labels on the exact candle that confirms a breakout.
Profit Targets: Optional toggle to show 1x and 2x profit targets projected from the breakout level.
Time-Bound Signals: Signals are strictly time-bound to the active window to prevent late, low-quality alerts.
— — —
🛠️ How to Use
Add to Chart: Works best on intraday timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m).
Configure: Enable the sessions you trade (e.g., NY 15m) in the settings.
Wait for Forming: Watch the box form live. The dashboard will show "⚡ Forming".
Trade the Break: Wait for a candle Close outside the range. The dashboard will flip to "BULL" or "BEAR" and a label will appear.
Manage Risk: Use the opposite side of the range or the midline as your stop loss.
— — —
⚙️ Settings Overview
Global Settings: Toggle forming boxes, dashboard, and label visibility.
Breakout Method: Choose between Close (safer) or Wick (aggressive) for signal triggers.
Session Groups: Individually enable/disable the 4 distinct sessions and customize their colors/styles.
— — —
📝 Update Notes (Recent)
New PDH/PDL Levels: Added the ability to display Previous Day High and Previous Day Low lines on the chart.
Auto-Update & Cleanup: The PDH/PDL lines now automatically update daily and erase historical lines, ensuring only the current day's levels are visible to keep the chart clean.
Dashboard Positioning: Added a new setting to move the Status Dashboard to any corner of the screen.
Enhanced Customization: Added full styling options in settings for PDH/PDL lines and Dashboard positioning.

Liquidity Levels Pro Tool - thewallranka
Liquidity Levels Pro Tool is a market-structure and liquidity-mapping indicator designed to help discretionary futures and index traders identify statistically relevant price levels where reactions, continuations, or liquidity sweeps are more likely to occur.
This script is a decision-support tool, not a signal generator. It does not issue buy/sell alerts or predict future price movement. Instead, it organizes and scores liquidity information so traders can make their own contextual decisions.
What this indicator does
The script continuously detects and maintains liquidity zones derived from price pivots, then evaluates those zones using multiple structural and contextual factors:
Repeated price interaction (touches)
Freshness (time since last interaction)
Confluence with key reference levels
Reaction behavior after contact
Session relevance (RTH vs overnight)
Market regime (trend vs mean reversion)
Time-of-day effects (open, midday, power hour)
Only the most relevant zones—based on a dynamic scoring system—are displayed to reduce chart clutter and focus attention on levels that have historically mattered.
Core components
1. Liquidity Zones
Zones are built from pivot highs and lows and expanded into areas using a configurable tick-based padding. Nearby zones are merged to avoid redundancy.
Each zone is continuously evaluated and assigned a score (0–100) reflecting its relative importance.
2. Zone Scoring (No Lookahead)
Zone scores are based on:
Number of confirmed interactions
Recency of the last touch
Confluence with prior day/week levels, VWAP, and Opening Range
Reaction quality after touches (speed and follow-through)
Session alignment (zones that “work” in the current session are favored)
Penalties after liquidity sweeps
Zones are not forward-looking and do not rely on future data.
3. Context Engine
The script classifies the current environment using VWAP slope and distance:
Trend (up or down)
Mean reversion
Mixed/transition
Time-of-day context (Open, Midday, Power Hour) is also tracked internally and influences zone scoring.
This context is displayed in the HUD to support situational awareness, not automated decisions.
4. Liquidity Sweeps
Optional sweep detection highlights situations where price trades beyond a zone and closes back inside, indicating potential stop runs or failed breakouts.
Sweeps are rate-limited and applied conservatively to avoid visual noise.
5. Trade Planning Levels (Optional)
When enabled, the script highlights the nearest high-quality liquidity level above and below price based on score thresholds.
These are intended as reference targets, not trade entries or exits.
HUD (Heads-Up Display)
The on-chart HUD summarizes:
Key reference levels (prior day/week, Opening Range)
Nearest strong liquidity above/below price
Market regime and time-of-day context
Distance to levels (ticks or points)
The HUD is fully optional, positionable, and includes resizable modes (Small / Medium / Large) to fit different chart layouts.
How to use this tool
This indicator is best used as part of a discretionary trading process, for example:
Identifying areas where price is more likely to react or pause
Framing trades around higher-quality structure instead of arbitrary levels
Filtering setups based on session and regime context
Managing expectations near known liquidity rather than chasing price
It is intentionally designed not to provide trade signals.
Limitations and important notes
This script does not predict outcomes or guarantee reactions
High-scoring zones can still fail
Liquidity behavior is context-dependent and probabilistic
No performance claims or backtested results are provided
The indicator should not be used in isolation
Past behavior does not imply future results.
Chart and usage notes
The script is intended for standard time-based charts
Recommended for liquid futures and index products
Use a clean chart for clarity when publishing or sharing
No external indicators are required
Final note
Liquidity Levels Pro (Tool) — v6 is designed to organize complex market structure into a clear, readable framework, allowing traders to focus on execution and risk management rather than raw level detection.
This script reflects an analytical approach to intraday liquidity and structure, not an automated trading system.
Buy / Sell Volume + % (Classic + Pressure)Buy / Sell Volume % (Classic + Pressure)
Overview
Buy / Sell Volume (Classic + Pressure) is a volume decomposition and dominance indicator designed to help traders understand how trading volume is distributed between buying and selling pressure on each candle.
Instead of treating volume as a single number, this indicator splits total volume into estimated Buy Volume and Sell Volume, visualizes them symmetrically, and summarizes dominance using a compact on-chart dashboard.
The indicator is intended as a context and confirmation tool, not a trade signal generator.
Core Concepts
1. Buy / Sell Volume Decomposition
The indicator estimates buying and selling activity based on the position of the close within the candle’s high–low range:
Closes near the high → more buying pressure
Closes near the low → more selling pressure
Middle closes → balanced activity
This provides a clear visual view of demand vs supply on every bar.
2. Dual Calculation Modes
🔹 Classic Mode (Default)
Uses pure candle-range logic
Buy Volume + Sell Volume = Total Volume (exact conservation)
No smoothing or directional bias
Values closely match traditional volume behavior
Best for:
Structural analysis
Accumulation / distribution studies
Comparing against raw volume
🔹 Pressure Mode
Introduces a directional bias:
Bullish candles slightly favor buy volume
Bearish candles slightly favor sell volume
Optional EMA smoothing reduces noise
Still volume-conserving (Buy + Sell = Total Volume)
Best for:
Identifying dominance
Trend continuation confirmation
Absorption vs initiative activity
Visual Elements
Volume Bars
Buy Volume plotted above zero
Sell Volume plotted below zero
Optional Total Volume Envelope for context
Color by Dominance
Bright colors when one side dominates
Faded colors when dominance is weak
Helps instantly identify:
Accumulation
Distribution
Absorption
Dashboard (Optional)
A compact dashboard displays:
Buy %
Sell %
Dominance State
BUY DOM
SELL DOM
BALANCED
The dashboard can be toggled ON/OFF and switched between Normal and Compact size to suit multi-pane layouts.
How to Use This Indicator
This indicator works best as a confirmation layer, not a standalone system.
Common Use Cases
Confirming breakouts or breakdowns
Spotting accumulation or distribution near key levels
Identifying absorption during consolidations
Filtering false price moves
Examples
Price rising + strong Buy % → constructive demand
Price rising + strong Sell % → possible distribution
Flat price + balanced volume → absorption / compression
What This Indicator Is NOT
❌ Not true order-flow or bid/ask data
❌ Not a buy/sell signal generator
❌ Not predictive on its own
All calculations are candle-based estimations, designed for context and insight, not execution timing.
Best Use
Works on all timeframes
Most reliable on liquid instruments
Especially useful when combined with:
Support / resistance
Trend structure
Market regime or breadth indicators
Summary
Buy / Sell Volume (Classic + Pressure) helps traders go beyond raw volume by visualizing who is in control of each candle, how strong that control is, and whether volume behavior supports price action.
Used correctly, it can significantly improve trade selectivity, confidence, and risk awareness.
Jin#10 HMA/OBV Pro Trader System (15m)HMA/OBV Pro Trader System Overview (15m Timeframe)
This system is designed to identify high-probability entry and exit points on the 15-minute chart by integrating multiple indicators for confirmation.
1. Trend and Confirmation
HMA Lines (Solid Lines): These are two Hull Moving Averages (HMA 8 and HMA 15).
Green/Red HMA 8 (Line 1): The faster HMA, showing short-term momentum.
Blue/Red HMA 15 (Line 3): The slower HMA, indicating the medium-term trend direction.
Trend Alignment: A strong trend requires the fast HMA (8) to be above the slow HMA (15) and both to be sloping favorably.
MTF Background Color (Candle Background): This represents the 30-minute trend filter.
Light Green/Teal: The 30-minute trend is upward and strong.
Light Orange/Red: The 30-minute trend is downward and strong.
This acts as a major confirmation filter for entries.
2. Trading Signals (Shapes)
🚀 BUY / 🔻 SELL: These are the Final Confirmation Signals. They appear when all conditions (HMA alignment, Stochastic, MACD, and the 30m MTF filter) are met.
⚠️ Pre-BUY / Pre-SELL: These are Warning/Early Signals indicating that most conditions on the 15m chart are aligned, but the 30m filter has not yet confirmed the trend direction.
🔥 Volatility Spike / 🧊 Volatility Crash (Small Circle): Alerts the user to an unusually large candle (ATR spike), signaling extreme volatility or a potential reversal.
3. Exit and Risk Management
ATR Trailing Stop (Dashed Line): This dynamic line serves as a Soft Exit or Stop-Loss Guide.
❌ Exit Long / Exit Short (X-Cross): This shape appears when the price crosses the ATR Trailing Stop, suggesting the existing position (Long or Short) should be closed immediately.
Dashed TP/SL Lines (Green/Red): These lines mark a calculated Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) based on the entry price and the defined Risk-Reward Ratio (e.g., 1:1.5).
QUANT TRADING ENGINE [PointAlgo]Quant Trading Engine is a quantitative market-analysis indicator that combines multiple statistical factors to study trend behavior, mean reversion, volatility, execution efficiency, and market stability.
The indicator converts raw price behavior into standardized signals to help evaluate directional bias and risk conditions in a systematic way.
This script focuses on factor alignment and regime awareness, not prediction certainty.
Design Philosophy
Markets move through different regimes such as trending, ranging, volatile expansion, and instability.
This indicator attempts to model these regimes by blending:
Momentum strength
Mean-reversion pressure
Volatility risk
Trend filtering
Execution context (VWAP)
Correlation structure
Each component is normalized and combined into a single Quant Alpha framework.
Factor Construction
1. Momentum Factor
Measures directional strength using percentage price change over a rolling window.
Standardized using mean and standard deviation.
Represents trend continuation pressure.
2. Mean Reversion Factor
Measures deviation from a longer moving average.
Standardized to identify stretched conditions.
Designed to capture counter-trend behavior.
Directional Clamping
Mean-reversion signals are dynamically restricted:
No counter-trend buying during downtrends.
No counter-trend selling during uptrends.
Allows both sides only in neutral regimes.
This prevents conflicting signals in strong trends.
3. Volatility Factor
Uses realized volatility derived from price changes.
Penalizes environments where volatility deviates significantly from its norm.
Acts as a risk adjustment rather than a directional driver.
4. Composite Quant Alpha
The final Quant Alpha is a weighted blend of:
Momentum
Mean reversion (trend-clamped)
Volatility risk
The composite is standardized into a Z-score, allowing consistent interpretation across instruments and timeframes.
Signal Logic
Buy signal occurs when Quant Alpha crosses above zero.
Sell signal occurs when Quant Alpha crosses below zero.
Zero-cross logic is used to represent shifts from negative to positive statistical bias and vice versa.
Signals reflect statistical regime change, not trade instructions.
Volatility Smile Context
Measures price deviation from its statistical distribution.
Identifies skewed conditions where upside or downside volatility becomes dominant.
Highlights extreme deviations that may imply elevated derivative risk.
Exotic Risk Conditions
Detects sudden price expansion combined with volatility spikes.
Highlights environments where execution and risk become unstable.
Visual background cues are used for awareness only.
Execution Context (VWAP)
Measures price distance from VWAP.
Used to assess execution efficiency rather than direction.
Helps identify stretched conditions relative to average traded price.
Correlation Structure
Evaluates short-term return correlations.
Detects when price behavior becomes less predictable.
Flags structural instability rather than trend direction.
Visualization
The indicator plots:
Quant Alpha (scaled) with directional coloring
Volatility smile deviation
Price vs VWAP distance
Correlation structure
Signal markers indicate Quant Alpha zero-cross events and risk conditions.
Dashboard
A compact dashboard summarizes:
Trend filter state
Quant Alpha polarity and value
Individual factor readings
Current action state (Buy / Sell / Wait / Risk)
The dashboard provides a real-time snapshot of internal model conditions.
Usage Notes
Designed for analytical interpretation and research.
Best used alongside price action and risk management tools.
Factor behavior depends on instrument liquidity and volatility.
Not optimized for illiquid or irregular markets.

Amihud Illiquidity Ratio [MarkitTick]💡This indicator implements the Amihud Illiquidity Ratio, a financial metric designed to measure the price impact of trading volume. It assesses the relationship between absolute price returns and the volume required to generate that return, providing traders with insight into the "stress" levels of the market liquidity.
Concept and Originality
Standard volume indicators often look at volume in isolation. This script differentiates itself by contextualizing volume against price movement. It answers the question: "How much did the price move per unit of volume?" Furthermore, unlike static indicators, this implementation utilizes dynamic percentile zones (Linear Interpolation) to adapt to the changing volatility profile of the specific asset you are viewing.
Methodology
The calculation proceeds in three distinct steps:
1. Daily Return: The script calculates the absolute percentage change of the closing price relative to the previous close.
2. Raw Ratio: The absolute return is divided by the volume. I have introduced a standard scaling factor (1,000,000) to the calculation. This resolves the issue of the values being astronomically small (displayed as roughly 0) without altering the fundamental logic of the Amihud ratio (Absolute Return / Volume).
- High Ratio: Indicates that price is moving significantly on low volume (Illiquid/Thin Order Book).
- Low Ratio: Indicates that price requires massive volume to move (Liquid/Deep Order Book).
3. Dynamic Regimes: The script calculates the 75th and 25th percentiles of the ratio over a lookback period. This creates adaptive bands that define "High Stress" and "Liquid" zones relative to recent history.
How to Use
Traders can use this tool to identify market fragility:
- High Stress Zone (Red Background): When the indicator crosses above the 75th percentile, the market is in a High Illiquidity Regime. Price is slipping easily. This is often observed during panic selling or volatile tops where the order book is thin.
- Liquid Zone (Green Background): When the indicator drops below the 25th percentile, the market is in a Liquid Regime. The market is absorbing volume well, which is often characteristic of stable trends or accumulation phases.
- Dashboard: A visual table on the chart displays the current Amihud Ratio and the active Market Regime (High Stress, Normal, or Liquid).
Inputs
- Calculation Period: The lookback length for the average illiquidity (Default: 20).
- Smoothing Period: The length of the additional moving average to smooth out noise (Default: 5).
- Show Quant Dashboard: Toggles the visibility of the on-screen information table.
● How to read this chart
• Spike in Illiquidity (Red Zones)
Price is moving on "thin air." Expect high volatility or potential reversals.
• Low Illiquidity (Green/Stable Zones)
The market is deep and liquid. Trends here are more sustainable and reliable.
• Divergence
Watch for price making new highs while liquidity is drying up—a classic sign of an exhausted trend.
Example:
● Chart Overview
The chart displays the Amihud Illiquidity indicator applied to a Gold (XAUUSD) 4-hour timeframe.
Top Pane: Price action with manual text annotations highlighting market reversals relative to liquidity zones.
Bottom Pane: The specific technical indicator defined in the logic. It features a Blue Line (Raw Illiquidity), a Red Line (Signal/Smoothed), and dynamic background coloring (Red and Green vertical strips).
● Deep Visual Analysis
• High Stress Regime (Red Zones)
Visual Event: In the bottom pane, the background periodically shifts to a translucent red.
Technical Logic: This event is triggered when the amihudAvg (the smoothed illiquidity ratio) exceeds the 75th percentile ( hZone ) of the lookback period.
Forensic Interpretation: The logic calculates the absolute price change relative to volume. A spike into the red zone indicates that price is moving significantly on relatively lower volume (high price impact). Visually, the chart shows these red zones aligning with local price peaks (volatility expansion), leading to the bearish reversal marked by the red box in the top pane.
• Liquid Regime (Green Zones)
Visual Event: The background shifts to a translucent green in the bottom pane.
Technical Logic: This triggers when the amihudAvg falls below the 25th percentile ( lZone ).
Forensic Interpretation: This state represents a period where large volumes are absorbed with minimal price impact (efficiency). On the chart, this green zone corresponds to the consolidation trough (green box, top pane), validating the annotated accumulation phase before the bullish breakout.
• Indicator Lines
Blue Line: This is the illiquidityRaw value. It represents the raw daily return divided by volume.
Red Line: This is the smoothedVal , a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the raw data, used to filter out noise and define the trend of liquidity stress.
● Anomalies & Critical Data
• The Reversal Pivot
The transition from the "High Stress" (Red) background to the "Liquid" (Green) background serves as a visual proxy for market regime change. The chart shows that as the Red zones dissipate (volatility contraction), the market enters a Green zone (efficient liquidity), which acted as the precursor to the sustained upward trend on the right side of the chart.

BTC ETF Average Inflow Cost BasisConcept
Since the historic launch of Bitcoin Spot ETFs on January 11, 2024, institutional flows have become a major driver of price action. This indicator aims to visualize the aggregate Cost Basis (average entry price) of the major Bitcoin ETFs relative to the underlying asset.
It serves as an on-chain proxy for institutional positioning, helping traders identify critical support levels where ETF inflows have historically concentrated.
How it Works
The script aggregates daily volume data from the top Bitcoin ETFs (IBIT, FBTC, ARKB, GBTC, BITB) and compares it against the Bitcoin price (BTCUSDT).
ETF Cost Basis (Pink Line):
This is calculated as a Cumulative Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP), anchored specifically to the ETF launch date (Jan 11, 2024).
Formula: It accumulates (BTC Price * Total ETF Volume) and divides it by the Cumulative Total ETF Volume.
This creates a dynamic level representing the "breakeven" price for the aggregate volume traded through these funds.
True Market Mean (Gray Line):
This represents the simple cumulative average of the Bitcoin price since the ETF launch date. It acts as a neutral baseline for the post-ETF market era.
How to Use
Institutional Support: The Cost Basis line often acts as a strong dynamic support level during corrections. When price revisits this level, it suggests the market is returning to the average institutional entry price.
Trend Filter:
Price > Cost Basis: The market is in a net profit state relative to ETF flows (Bullish/Trend continuation).
Price < Cost Basis: The market is in a net loss state (Bearish/Capitulation risk).
Confluence: The intersection of the Cost Basis and the True Market Mean can signal pivotal moments of trend reset.
Features
Data Aggregation: Pulls data from 5 major ETFs via request.security without repainting (using closed bars).
Dashboard: Includes a table in the top-right corner displaying real-time values for Price, Cost Basis, and Market Mean.
Customization: You can toggle individual ETF Moving Averages in the settings (disabled by default due to price scale differences between BTC and ETF shares).

Order Block Finder [MHA Finverse]A comprehensive order block detection indicator that identifies institutional buying and selling zones with advanced volume filtering and King Order Block (KOB) detection.
Key Features
Dual Structure Detection
- Internal Order Blocks: Short-term zones based on 5-bar pivots for precise entries
- Swing Order Blocks: Higher timeframe zones based on 50-bar pivots for major support/resistance levels
- Toggle between structures or display both simultaneously
King Order Block (KOB)
The indicator automatically identifies the order block with the highest volume and marks it as the "King Order Block" - typically the most significant institutional zone that deserves priority attention. You can optionally color-code KOB blocks differently for instant visual recognition.
Intelligent Volume Filtering
Uses ATR or Cumulative Mean Range to filter out low-quality blocks and focus only on institutional-sized moves. This ensures you're trading zones where smart money has left clear footprints.
Volume Metrics Display
Each order block shows its actual volume and percentage contribution, helping you prioritize which zones to trade. Higher volume blocks indicate stronger institutional interest.
Flexible Lookback Periods
Choose from preset trading styles (Scalping: 50 bars, Day Trading: 150 bars, Swing Trading: 400 bars, Position Trading: 750 bars) or set custom lookback periods to match your strategy.
Advanced Mitigation Options
Select between Close or High/Low mitigation methods to control when order blocks are considered invalidated.
King Order Block (KOB)
The King Order Block is the order block with the highest volume among all active blocks on your chart. It represents the zone where the largest institutional activity occurred, making it the most significant level for potential reversals. When multiple order blocks are present, the KOB should be your primary focus as it typically offers higher probability setups. The indicator automatically identifies and marks the KOB with a special label, and you can optionally color-code it differently for instant visual recognition. KOB zones often produce stronger reactions when price returns to test them, allowing for more confident entries with tighter stop losses.
How to Use
1. For Short-Term Trading: Enable Internal Order Blocks to identify quick reversals and entries on lower timeframes.
2. For Position Trading: Enable Swing Order Blocks to find major institutional zones on higher timeframes.
3. Focus on KOB: When multiple blocks appear, prioritize the King Order Block as it represents the highest volume zone.
4. Volume Confirmation: Check the volume metrics - blocks with 30%+ volume contribution are typically stronger zones.
5. Entry Strategy: Wait for price to return to an order block, look for rejection signals (pin bars, engulfing patterns), then enter with stops below/above the block.
6. Adjust Lookback: Match the lookback period to your trading timeframe for optimal block visibility.
Color Themes
- Colored Mode: Distinct colors for bullish/bearish and internal/swing blocks
- Monochrome Mode: Professional grayscale palette for clean charts
Alert System
Comprehensive alerts for:
- Order block creation (internal/swing, bullish/bearish)
- Order block mitigation
- King Order Block events
Perfect for traders who follow Smart Money Concepts (SMC), institutional order flow, and supply/demand zones.

Tradegrill: Dollar Value TradedTraditional volume shows the number of shares/contracts traded, but it doesn't account for price differences. A $100 stock trading 1 million shares represents far more capital commitment than a $10 stock trading the same amount.
