Lakshmi - Vajra Energy Signal (VES)Vajra Energy Signal (VES) is an advanced volume analysis indicator that detects energy accumulated inside the market.
When assessing the strength of trading activity, conventional practice looks at the magnitude of volume; VES is designed with the understanding that the same volume can have different meanings depending on the price range.
VES analyzes the complex relationship between price movement and volume with a proprietary algorithm and can detect internal market activities that are invisible from surface‑level price action, visualizing the characteristic whereby the value rises before a breakout.
In other words, VES views the market as an “energy system.” In the energy accumulation phase, relatively high volume occurs relative to the price range, and in the energy release phase, the stored energy is emitted as high volatility in price, that is, a breakout—this is the core concept on which VES is established.
⚡️ Basic Demonstration
i.imgur.com
As you can see in the image above, VES simply displays the highs and lows of energy stored in the market as a thin line in a separate panel.
It is easy for traders to understand its intuitive patterns: it rises when hidden buying accumulation or selling activity continue and sink when a price breakout occurs. It can be applied across symbols and markets (stocks, commodities, cryptocurrencies, spot, and futures). While reducing clutter in price scale labels, it also supports dynamic autoscaling.
⚡️ Practical Usage
VES is expected to be used for the following purposes.
- Entry signal
When the VES value continues to rise—i.e., during energy accumulation—it can be considered on standby for a breakout. After a breakout, a trader can confirm the trend direction and enter.
- Exit signal
If the VES value rises during a trend, consider the possibility of a reversal and consider taking profits.
- Risk management
If the VES value remains elevated for a long period, regard it as increased market uncertainty and an approaching breakout; adopt a cautious trading strategy to prepare for higher volatility and adjust position size.
For example, in the BINANCE:SOLUSDT daily chart below, VES clearly shows how it functions in short‑term trading.
i.imgur.com
In September 2023, when the price was moving around 20 USDT, VES formed frequent small spikes. These early spikes suggest that market participants were still in a wait‑and‑see mode and that small‑scale accumulation was being conducted intermittently.
A decisive change came in early October 2023. While the price still stagnated in the 20–25 USDT range, VES suddenly formed a huge spike. The scale of this spike was far larger than those in September 2023, clearly suggesting that hidden substantial trading activities by large investors had begun.
In mid‑October 2023, the price began to rise. It climbed stepwise from 25 USDT to 40 USDT, then to 60 USDT and 75 USDT, and then surged to above 120 USDT within just a few weeks. This suggests that the energy built in the buy accumulation phase in early October 2023 was converted into price appreciation.
Therefore, after such a large VES signal is observed and the price breaks upward, entering a long position could have been profitable.
A large VES reaction is not only a quiet “buy signal” as in the example above; it can also be a “sell signal.” Such a case is explained below using an example on the BTC chart.

This BITSTAMP:BTCUSD 4‑hour chart is a valuable example showing how VES detects top formation on a short timeframe. In the first half of February 2024, the price moved in a relatively narrow 96,000–99,000 USD range. During this period, VES remained stable at low levels, and the market continued a calm uptrend.
The first sign appeared on February 16, 2024. While the price still held around 97,000 USD, VES formed a clearly identifiable small spike. This implied that some large investors had begun to take profits, or that new sellers had started to build short positions. However, at that point, the impact on price was limited, and many traders may have overlooked the signal.
The decisive turning point came on February 23, 2024. With the price moving around 98,000 USD, VES suddenly formed a huge spike. The scale of this spike was far larger than previous moves, clearly indicating that significant energy was accumulating.
Importantly, even at this moment the price still remained at the highs. On the surface, price barely moved and the bull trend appeared intact, but VES detected a major internal change underway.
On February 24, 2024, the price collapsed and began to fall. It dropped about 15% from 97,000 USD to 82,000 USD in a few days. The speed and magnitude of this decline corroborated the quiet “sell signal” indicated by the VES spikes.
The key lesson from this chart is that a VES spike does not necessarily mean buy accumulation. A large VES spike formed at high prices may instead indicate a distribution phase—that is, large investors exiting or building short positions. When the price is at elevated levels, a VES spike should be considered not only as a precursor to further upside but also as a warning of potential downside.
From a trading‑strategy perspective, the huge VES spike on February 23, 2024 was a clear signal to exit or to consider entering short positions. At that point, traders should have either closed long positions or to consider building a short position. The moment when price started to decline from its peak was exactly the entry timing for a short.
On the 4‑hour timeframe, changes in VES appear faster and more dramatically. While this allows more agile responses, the risk of false signals is also higher; therefore, confirmation on other timeframes and comprehensive judgment with price action are essential.
VES is a powerful tool for reading internal market activities, and this chart clearly shows that its interpretation requires flexibility that takes into account market conditions and price location.
⚡️ Parameter Settings
Strength 1: The lower the number, the more it emphasizes responses closer to the present timeframe; the higher the number, the more it emphasizes responses farther from the present timeframe. 5 is recommended.
Strength 2: The lower the number, the greater the volatility of the value; the higher the number, the smaller the volatility. 5 is recommended.
Scale: Adjusts the display scale. −30 is recommended.
⚡️ Conclusion
Vajra Energy Signal (VES) visualizes the cycle of energy accumulation in the market from the relative relationship between price range and volume, detecting hidden activities by market participants that conventional volume analysis cannot capture. VES serves as a powerful auxiliary tool for early detection of turning points, enabling deeper market understanding and more accurate timing decisions. As the examples show, there is a possibility of sensing major price movements in advance. When using VES, flexible interpretation according to market environment and price location is required, and it demonstrates its true value when combined with price action and other analysis methods such as support/resistance.
⚡️ Important Notes
- VES is a tool that infers internal market energy; it does not guarantee trades or suggest future results.
- We strongly recommend using it together with price action analysis and support/resistance.
- Confirmation across different timeframes improves reliability.
- Effectiveness may vary depending on market conditions and liquidity.
- Very illiquid instruments or newly listed assets may produce more noise.

MACD (The Moving Average Convergence Divergence)The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis to identify trends, measure their strength, and signal potential reversals. It is calculated by subtracting the 26-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) from the 12-period EMA, creating the MACD line. A 9-period EMA of the MACD line, known as the signal line, is then plotted to generate buy or sell signals. Positive MACD values suggest upward momentum, while negative values indicate downward momentum. Traders often watch for crossovers, divergences, and movements relative to the zero line to make informed decisions.
Volume Aggregated (Lite)Volume Aggregated (Lite) is a lightweight yet powerful tool designed to provide traders with a consolidated view of trading volume across major perpetual futures markets. Instead of relying solely on the volume of a single exchange, this indicator aggregates and normalizes data from multiple venues, giving a broader and more representative measure of market activity.
Supported Exchanges:
Binance (USDT.P & USDC.P)
Bybit (USDT.P & USD.P)
OKX (USDT.P & USD.P)
Bitget (USDT.P & USD.P)
Coinbase (USDC.P)
Users can toggle each exchange individually, allowing flexible customization depending on which markets they consider most relevant.
Denomination Options:
COINS: Volume expressed in the base currency (e.g., BTC, ETH).
USD: Volume normalized to USD values by multiplying with price.
Why it’s useful:
Volume is a critical component of technical analysis, reflecting market participation and conviction behind price moves. However, relying on a single exchange can create blind spots, especially in crypto where liquidity is fragmented. By combining data from multiple large exchanges, this indicator offers:
A more comprehensive measure of market interest.
A normalized comparison between exchanges with different quote currencies (e.g., USDT, USD, USDC).
A volume stream that can be used as a custom source for other indicators, strategies, or overlays within TradingView.
Practical Applications:
Trend Confirmation: Check if aggregated volume supports price direction.
Breakout Validation: Identify whether breakouts are backed by broad participation across venues.
Divergence Detection: Spot situations where price moves without sufficient cross-exchange volume.
Custom Indicator Input: Since it outputs a clean series, it can be plugged into moving averages, oscillators, or custom-built scripts.
Technical Details:
The script uses request.security() to pull volume data across exchanges and normalizes values when required (e.g., USD-quoted pairs divided by the instrument’s price). It then aggregates all valid inputs into a single stream. The result is displayed as color-coded columns (green for bullish candles, red for bearish), making it easy to interpret at a glance.
This “Lite” version keeps the focus on core functionality: aggregation, normalization, and straightforward visualization—avoiding unnecessary complexity while remaining highly adaptable for custom analysis.
BOCS AdaptiveBOCS Adaptive Strategy - Automated Volatility Breakout System
WHAT THIS STRATEGY DOES:
This is an automated trading strategy that detects consolidation patterns through volatility analysis and executes trades when price breaks out of these channels. Take-profit and stop-loss levels are calculated dynamically using Average True Range (ATR) to adapt to current market volatility. The strategy closes positions partially at the first profit target and exits the remainder at the second target or stop loss.
TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY:
Price Normalization Process:
The strategy begins by normalizing price to create a consistent measurement scale. It calculates the highest high and lowest low over a user-defined lookback period (default 100 bars). The current close price is then normalized using the formula: (close - lowest_low) / (highest_high - lowest_low). This produces values between 0 and 1, allowing volatility analysis to work consistently across different instruments and price levels.
Volatility Detection:
A 14-period standard deviation is applied to the normalized price series. Standard deviation measures how much prices deviate from their average - higher values indicate volatility expansion, lower values indicate consolidation. The strategy uses ta.highestbars() and ta.lowestbars() functions to track when volatility reaches peaks and troughs over the detection length period (default 14 bars).
Channel Formation Logic:
When volatility crosses from a high level to a low level, this signals the beginning of a consolidation phase. The strategy records this moment using ta.crossover(upper, lower) and begins tracking the highest and lowest prices during the consolidation. These become the channel boundaries. The duration between the crossover and current bar must exceed 10 bars minimum to avoid false channels from brief volatility spikes. Channels are drawn using box objects with the recorded high/low boundaries.
Breakout Signal Generation:
Two detection modes are available:
Strong Closes Mode (default): Breakout occurs when the candle body midpoint math.avg(close, open) exceeds the channel boundary. This filters out wick-only breaks.
Any Touch Mode: Breakout occurs when the close price exceeds the boundary.
When price closes above the upper channel boundary, a bullish breakout signal generates. When price closes below the lower boundary, a bearish breakout signal generates. The channel is then removed from the chart.
ATR-Based Risk Management:
The strategy uses request.security() to fetch ATR values from a specified timeframe, which can differ from the chart timeframe. For example, on a 5-minute chart, you can use 1-minute ATR for more responsive calculations. The ATR is calculated using ta.atr(length) with a user-defined period (default 14).
Exit levels are calculated at the moment of breakout:
Long Entry Price = Upper channel boundary
Long TP1 = Entry + (ATR × TP1 Multiplier)
Long TP2 = Entry + (ATR × TP2 Multiplier)
Long SL = Entry - (ATR × SL Multiplier)
For short trades, the calculation inverts:
Short Entry Price = Lower channel boundary
Short TP1 = Entry - (ATR × TP1 Multiplier)
Short TP2 = Entry - (ATR × TP2 Multiplier)
Short SL = Entry + (ATR × SL Multiplier)
Trade Execution Logic:
When a breakout occurs, the strategy checks if trading hours filter is satisfied (if enabled) and if position size equals zero (no existing position). If volume confirmation is enabled, it also verifies that current volume exceeds 1.2 times the 20-period simple moving average.
If all conditions are met:
strategy.entry() opens a position using the user-defined number of contracts
strategy.exit() immediately places a stop loss order
The code monitors price against TP1 and TP2 levels on each bar
When price reaches TP1, strategy.close() closes the specified number of contracts (e.g., if you enter with 3 contracts and set TP1 close to 1, it closes 1 contract). When price reaches TP2, it closes all remaining contracts. If stop loss is hit first, the entire position exits via the strategy.exit() order.
Volume Analysis System:
The strategy uses ta.requestUpAndDownVolume(timeframe) to fetch up volume, down volume, and volume delta from a specified timeframe. Three display modes are available:
Volume Mode: Shows total volume as bars scaled relative to the 20-period average
Comparison Mode: Shows up volume and down volume as separate bars above/below the channel midline
Delta Mode: Shows net volume delta (up volume - down volume) as bars, positive values above midline, negative below
The volume confirmation logic compares breakout bar volume to the 20-period SMA. If volume ÷ average > 1.2, the breakout is classified as "confirmed." When volume confirmation is enabled in settings, only confirmed breakouts generate trades.
INPUT PARAMETERS:
Strategy Settings:
Number of Contracts: Fixed quantity to trade per signal (1-1000)
Require Volume Confirmation: Toggle to only trade signals with volume >120% of average
TP1 Close Contracts: Exact number of contracts to close at first target (1-1000)

HOW TO USE:
For 2-Minute Scalping:
Set ATR Timeframe to "1" (1-minute), ATR Length to 12, TP1 Multiplier to 2.0, TP2 Multiplier to 3.0, SL Multiplier to 1.5. Enable volume confirmation and strong closes only. Use trading hours filter to avoid low-volume periods.
For 5-15 Minute Day Trading:
Set ATR Timeframe to match chart or use 5-minute, ATR Length to 14, TP1 Multiplier to 2.0, TP2 Multiplier to 3.5, SL Multiplier to 1.2. Volume confirmation recommended but optional.
For Hourly+ Swing Trading:
Set ATR Timeframe to 15-30 minute, ATR Length to 14-21, TP1 Multiplier to 2.5, TP2 Multiplier to 4.0, SL Multiplier to 1.5. Volume confirmation optional, nested channels can be enabled for multiple setups.
BACKTEST CONSIDERATIONS:
Strategy performs best during trending or volatility expansion phases
Consolidation-heavy or choppy markets produce more false signals
Shorter timeframes require wider stop loss multipliers due to noise
Commission and slippage significantly impact performance on sub-5-minute charts
Volume confirmation generally improves win rate but reduces trade frequency
ATR multipliers should be optimized for specific instrument characteristics
COMPATIBLE MARKETS:
Works on any instrument with price and volume data including forex pairs, stock indices, individual stocks, cryptocurrency, commodities, and futures contracts. Requires TradingView data feed that includes volume for volume confirmation features to function.
KNOWN LIMITATIONS:
Stop losses execute via strategy.exit() and may not fill at exact levels during gaps or extreme volatility
request.security() on lower timeframes requires higher-tier TradingView subscription
False breakouts inherent to breakout strategies cannot be completely eliminated
Performance varies significantly based on market regime (trending vs ranging)
Partial closing logic requires sufficient position size relative to TP1 close contracts setting

Oscillator Matrix [Alpha Extract]A comprehensive multi-oscillator system that combines volume-weighted money flow analysis with enhanced momentum detection, providing traders with a unified framework for identifying high-probability market opportunities across all timeframes. By integrating two powerful oscillators with advanced confluence analysis, this indicator delivers precise entry and exit signals while filtering out market noise through sophisticated threshold-based regime detection.
🔶 Volume-Weighted Money Flow Analysis
Utilizes an advanced money flow calculation that tracks volume-weighted price movements to identify institutional activity and smart money flow. This approach provides superior signal quality by emphasizing high-volume price movements while filtering out low-volume market noise.
// Volume-weighted flows
up_volume = price_up ? volume : 0
down_volume = price_down ? volume : 0
// Money Flow calculation
up_vol_sum = ta.sma(up_volume, mf_length)
down_vol_sum = ta.sma(down_volume, mf_length)
total_volume = up_vol_sum + down_vol_sum
money_flow_ratio = total_volume > 0 ? (up_vol_sum - down_vol_sum) / total_volume : 0
🔶 Enhanced Hyper Wave Oscillator
Features a sophisticated MACD-based momentum oscillator with advanced normalization techniques that adapt to different price ranges and market volatility. The system uses percentage-based calculations to ensure consistent performance across various instruments and timeframes.
// Enhanced MACD-based oscillator
fast_ma = ta.ema(src, hw_fast)
slow_ma = ta.ema(src, hw_slow)
macd_line = fast_ma - slow_ma
signal_line = ta.ema(macd_line, hw_signal)
// Proper normalization using percentage of price
price_base = ta.sma(close, 50)
macd_normalized = macd_line / price_base
hyper_wave = macd_range > 0 ? macd_normalized / macd_range : 0
🔶 Multi-Factor Confluence System
Implements an intelligent confluence scoring mechanism that combines signals from both oscillators to identify high-probability trading opportunities. The system assigns strength scores based on multiple confirmation factors, significantly reducing false signals.
🔶 Fixed Threshold Levels
Uses predefined threshold levels optimized for standard oscillator ranges to distinguish between normal market fluctuations and significant momentum shifts. The dual-threshold system provides clear visual cues for overbought/oversold conditions while maintaining consistent signal criteria across different market conditions.
🔶 Overflow Detection Technology
Advanced overflow indicators identify extreme market conditions that often precede major reversals or continuation patterns. These signals highlight moments when market momentum reaches critical levels, providing early warning for potential turning points.
🔶 Dual Oscillator Integration
The indicator simultaneously tracks volume-weighted money flow and momentum-based price action through two independent oscillators. This dual approach ensures comprehensive market analysis by capturing both institutional activity and technical momentum patterns.
// Multi-factor confluence scoring
confluence_bull = (mf_bullish ? 1 : 0) + (hw_bullish ? 1 : 0) +
(mf_overflow_bull ? 1 : 0) + (hw_overflow_bull ? 1 : 0)
confluence_bear = (mf_bearish ? 1 : 0) + (hw_bearish ? 1 : 0) +
(mf_overflow_bear ? 1 : 0) + (hw_overflow_bear ? 1 : 0)
confluence_strength = confluence_bull > confluence_bear ? confluence_bull / 4 : -confluence_bear / 4
🔶 Intelligent Signal Generation
The system generates two tiers of reversal signals: strong signals that require multiple confirmations across both oscillators, and weak signals that identify early momentum shifts. This hierarchical approach allows traders to adjust position sizing based on signal strength.
🔶 Visual Confluence Zones
Background coloring dynamically adjusts based on confluence strength, creating visual zones that immediately communicate market sentiment. The intensity of background shading corresponds to the strength of the confluent signals, making pattern recognition effortless.
🔶 Threshold Visualization
Color-coded threshold zones provide instant visual feedback about oscillator positions relative to key levels. The fill areas between thresholds create clear overbought and oversold regions with graduated color intensity.
🔶 Candle Color Integration
Optional candle coloring applies confluence-based color logic directly to price bars, creating a unified visual framework that helps traders correlate indicator signals with actual price movements for enhanced decision-making.
🔶 Overflow Alert System
Specialized circular markers highlight extreme overflow conditions on both oscillators, drawing attention to potential climax moves that often precede significant reversals or accelerated trend continuation.
🔶 Customizable Display Options
Comprehensive display controls allow traders to toggle individual components on or off, enabling focused analysis on specific aspects of the indicator. This modularity ensures the indicator adapts to different trading styles and analytical preferences.

Quadro Volume Profile [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
The Quadro Volume Profile is a precision-engineered volume profiling tool that segments market activity into four distinct quadrants surrounding the current price. By separating bullish and bearish volume above and below the current price, it helps traders identify dominant forces and high-interest price zones with ease. Each quadrant includes label annotations showing total volume and its share of overall activity — delivering powerful insights into the market’s internal structure.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Four-Quadrant Volume Distribution : Volume is separated into Buy and Sell profiles both above and below the current price.
Directional Volume Logic : Bullish and bearish candle volume is allocated to specific bins, creating color-coded volume stacks.
Dynamic PoC Detection : Point of Control (PoC) levels are calculated per quadrant and optionally displayed.
Lookback-Based Anchoring : The volume histogram is anchored to a fixed lookback window, ensuring consistency and historical context.
Label-Based Analytics : Each quadrant displays a labeled breakdown of direction, total volume, and percentage weight of total activity.
🔵 FEATURES
Four separate volume profiles:
Upper Left: Bearish volume (Sell Quad above price)
Upper Right: Bullish volume (Buy Quad above price)
Lower Left: Bullish volume (Buy Quad below price)
Lower Right: Bearish volume (Sell Quad below price)
Live Labels for Each Quad:
Displays BUY or SELL direction
Shows total volume per quadrant (e.g. 607.49K)
Displays percent share of total quad volume (e.g. 18.87%)
Toggle visibility for each profile and each Point of Control (PoC) dashed PoC lines with volume annotations
Adjustable calculation period (lookBack), number of bins, and horizontal offset
Color gradient intensity represents volume strength per bin
Auto-cleaning visuals to keep the chart uncluttered
Gradient color control for Buy and Sell volumes
Clean midline split between upper and lower quadrants
🔵 HOW TO USE
Select your desired calculation period (default: 200 bars) to define the range for volume analysis.
Adjust the bins parameter for more or less resolution in volume distribution.
Toggle each quadrant on/off depending on your preference using the settings panel:
“Upper Sell Quad” – shows bearish volume above current price (left)
“Upper Buy Quad” – shows bullish volume above current price (right)
“Lower Buy Quad” – shows bullish volume below current price (left)
“Lower Sell Quad” – shows bearish volume below current price (right)
Enable or disable PoC lines for each quad to highlight where volume peaked.
Use the gradient coloring to identify volume imbalances — sharp differences between opposing quads often indicate key zones of rejection or breakout.
Monitor the midline level which splits the four quadrants — it serves as a psychological pivot zone.
🔵 CONCLUSION
The Quadro Volume Profile offers a powerful and visually intuitive way to dissect market activity around price. By splitting volume into four quadrants, traders can better interpret order flow, identify dominant volume zones, and spot potential reversals or continuation setups. Whether you're trading breakouts, liquidity sweeps, or range-bound behavior — this tool adds a structured layer of volume context to your charting workflow.

How It Works
The strategy combines three core conditions:
Volume Spike Multiplier: Detects when current volume is > X times the rolling average (e.g., 5× 20-bar average volume).
Breakout Confirmation: Entry is considered only if the close is:
Near the high (for longs) or low (for shorts) of the candle.
Higher than the previous high (for longs), or lower than previous low (for shorts).

Anchored EMA/VWAP### Anchored EMA/VWAP Indicator
**Description:**
The **Anchored EMA/VWAP Indicator** is a powerful and versatile tool designed for traders seeking to analyze price trends and momentum from a user-defined anchor point in time. Built for TradingView using Pine Script v6, this indicator calculates and displays multiple **Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)**, **Volume-Weighted Exponential Moving Averages (VWEMAs)**, and a **Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP)**, all anchored to a specific date and time chosen by the user. By anchoring these calculations, traders can focus on price action relative to significant market events, such as news releases, earnings reports, or key support/resistance levels.
The indicator supports multi-timeframe (MTF) analysis, allowing users to compute EMAs, VWEMAs, and VWAP on a higher or custom timeframe (e.g., 5-minute, 1-hour, daily) while overlaying the results on the current chart. It also includes customizable cross signals for EMA and VWEMA pairs, marked with distinct shapes (circles, diamonds, squares) to highlight potential trend changes or reversals. These features make the indicator ideal for trend-following, momentum trading, and identifying key price levels across various markets, including stocks, forex, cryptocurrencies, and commodities.
**Key Features:**
- **Anchored Calculations**: EMAs, VWEMAs, and VWAP start calculations from a user-specified anchor time, enabling analysis relative to significant market moments.
- **Multi-Timeframe Support**: Compute indicators on any timeframe (e.g., 60-minute, daily) and display them on the chart’s timeframe for flexible analysis.
- **Customizable EMAs and VWEMAs**: Four EMAs and four VWEMAs with adjustable lengths (default: 9, 21, 50, 100) and colors, with options to show or hide each.
- **Volume-Weighted Metrics**: VWAP and VWEMAs incorporate volume data, providing a more robust representation of market activity compared to standard EMAs.
- **Cross Signals**: Visual markers (circles, diamonds, squares) for crossovers between EMA and VWEMA pairs, with customizable visibility to highlight bullish (up) or bearish (down) signals.
- **User-Friendly Interface**: Organized input groups for General, EMA, VWEMA, VWAP, Arrow Settings, and Cross Visibility, with intuitive inline inputs for length and color customization.
- **Visual Clarity**: Overlaid on the price chart with distinct colors and line styles (dotted for EMAs, dashed for VWEMAs, solid for VWAP) to ensure easy interpretation.
**How to Use:**
1. **Set the Anchor Time**: Click a specific bar or enter a date/time (default: June 1, 2025) to start calculations from a significant market event.
2. **Select Timeframe**: Choose a timeframe (e.g., "5" for 5-minute, "D" for daily) to compute the indicators, allowing alignment with your trading strategy.
3. **Customize EMAs and VWEMAs**: Adjust lengths and colors for up to four EMAs and VWEMAs, and toggle their visibility to focus on relevant lines.
4. **Enable VWAP**: Display the anchored VWAP to identify volume-weighted price levels, useful as dynamic support/resistance.
5. **Monitor Cross Signals**: Enable cross visibility for specific EMA or VWEMA pairs to spot potential trend changes. Bullish crosses (e.g., shorter EMA crossing above longer EMA) are marked with green shapes below the bar, while bearish crosses are marked with red shapes above the bar.
6. **Interpret Signals**: Use EMA/VWEMA crossovers for trend confirmation, VWAP as a mean-reversion level, and volume-weighted VWEMAs for momentum analysis in high-volume markets.
**Use Cases:**
- **Trend Trading**: Identify trend direction using EMA and VWEMA crossovers, with shorter lengths (e.g., 9, 21) for faster signals and longer lengths (e.g., 50, 100) for trend confirmation.
- **Mean Reversion**: Use the anchored VWAP as a dynamic support/resistance level to trade pullbacks or breakouts.
- **Event-Based Analysis**: Anchor the indicator to significant events (e.g., earnings, economic data releases) to analyze price behavior post-event.
- **Multi-Timeframe Strategies**: Combine higher timeframe EMAs/VWAPs with lower timeframe price action for high-probability setups.
**Settings:**
- **Anchor Time**: Set the starting point for calculations (default: June 1, 2025).
- **Timeframe**: Choose the timeframe for calculations (default: 5-minute).
- **EMA/VWEMA Lengths**: Default lengths of 9, 21, 50, and 100 for both EMAs and VWEMAs, adjustable per user preference.
- **Colors**: Customizable colors with slight transparency for visual clarity.
- **Cross Visibility**: Toggle specific EMA and VWEMA cross signals (e.g., EMA1/EMA2, VWEMA1/VWEMA3) to reduce chart clutter.
- **Arrow Colors**: Green for bullish crosses, red for bearish crosses.
**Notes:**
- The indicator is overlaid on the price chart, ensuring seamless integration with price action analysis.
- VWEMAs and VWAP are volume-sensitive, making them particularly effective in markets with significant volume fluctuations.
- Ensure the anchor time is set to a valid historical or future bar to avoid calculation errors.
- Cross signals are conditional on non-NA values to prevent false positives during initialization.

This indicator is a must-have for traders looking to combine anchored, volume-weighted, and multi-timeframe analysis into a single, customizable tool. Whether you're a day trader, swing trader, or long-term investor, the Anchored EMA/VWAP Indicator provides actionable insights for informed trading decisions.
Z-AxisZ-Axis is a new and unique indicator that can visualize volume. This indicator is all the stuff I used to do manually on charts. It shows where individual big bags of money are. It flags statistically significant volume by making a ray, higher volume will be different colors. Same color scheme as fire - white hot.
Some people try to wonder what the "market maker" thinks or where did they buy. I personally think of the elusive "market maker" like a school of fish moving together. Squeeze the timeframe down to 1 minute, and you see all the fish that think the same way.
Purple means that candle is in the top 7 standard deviations, or 7x.
Red is 10x
Orange is 15x
Yellow is 20x
White is 25x, and triggers an AVWAP.
25 Standard deviations is 99% followed by "9" for 137 decimal spaces... and it still triggers. ye ha.
Once price has moved 2% against the opening of the candle, it's dimmed/liquidated. When this happens, that means that anyone who bought at that candle open at 50x leverage, they are now a ghost.
Price is often drawn to "liquidity wells", visualized here as the black space between pivots.

Weekly Volume ChangeWeekly Volume Change %
See weekly volume trends at a glance! This indicator shows current vs. previous week’s volume, calculates percent change, and highlights increases (green) or decreases (red). Features customizable look-back weeks and table color for easy visualization.
VWAP Divergence LevelsThis is an indicator which paints levels on your chart based on degrees of historical divergence from VWAP. I conceived and designed it for my personal use trading index funds (QQQ, SPY) on the NYSE. It is one of the primary indicators I use on a daily basis, and may be of interest to traders with a focus on volume.
This indicator works by tracking, each session, the maximum amount that price diverges from VWAP that day. The lookback period is locked to 21 days, or about 1 month's worth of trading days. Bearish and bullish divergences are tracked separately.
From this data, we take the average of all maximum daily bullish divergences (the "Mean Bull" divergence amount), and paint that line relative to the current VWAP. In other words, if the VWAP for the current bar is at $2.50 and the Mean Bull divergence is $0.40, the line will be painted at $2.90. The largest value from the lookback period ("Max Bull") is also painted. The same is done for bearish divergences.
Finally, midpoints between the VWAP and the Mean and Max levels are drawn. Optionally, quarter-levels are drawn in the spaces between Mean and VWAP.
When I created this indicator, I found that price very often responds and retraces around these levels, allowing me to more easily visualize the relationship between price and volume. Personally, I have found it useful for finding entrance and exit points-- especially when the levels coincide with important previous daily levels, or other support/resistance points.
Good luck & happy trading.

Options Liquidity Confluence v1.1Options Liquidity Confluence (RVOL + Squeeze + OBV + PDH/PDL + VWAP) v1.1
By Miguel Licero
When trading options sometimes i experience that i read the price action right, movement goes to my favor, but contract value not necessarily goes up. This happens because of these 3 things:
Lack of directional conviction
Lack of liquidity injection
Lack of implied volatility shift
So in my personal case this is somewhat frustrating as the result of the operation is not what i expected. So after researching several strategies i tried to put together a tool that makes a humble attempt to capture liquidity expansion. So this script blends:
Relative Volume (RVOL) → participation/liquidity
“Squeeze” release (Bollinger Bands vs. Keltner Channels) → volatility expansion
OBV slope → aggressor flow proxy
Key levels → Prev-Day High/Low and VWAP
Optional EMA bias filter
This indicator tries to answer: “Will this move actually expand option premiums?”
It fires a Long or Short confluence when ALL the following are true (configurable):
Liquidity present → RVOL ≥ your threshold (default 1.8× the average).
Volatility release → the BB/Keltner Squeeze has just released (compression → expansion). Optionally requires BB width to be expanding.
Aggressor flow → OBV slope in the trade direction (linreg slope up for long, down for short).
Location/structure → Agreement at key levels:
- Long: price above VWAP and interacting with PDH (previous-day high).
- Short: price below VWAP and interacting with PDL (previous-day low).
Optional trend bias → EMA 21 vs EMA 50 filter.
When confluence hits, you’ll see a label/arrow and can also trigger alerts.
How to use it
1. Load on your 1-min or 5-min SPX/SPY chart.
It’s designed for intraday, especially 0DTE/near-dated options.
2. Tune thresholds by instrument/timeframe:
RVOL: For SPX/ES during NY session, 1.5–2.5 is typical.
Squeeze: Leave defaults initially (BB 20/2, KC 20/1.5).
OBV slope length: 21–55 bars works well; shorter = more sensitive.
3. Entry idea (example, SHORT):
Wait for short confluence as price breaks PDL (your chart event at ~11:54).
Confirm below VWAP, RVOL ≥ threshold, squeeze release, and OBV slope down.
Take ATM–slightly OTM puts with a predefined stop (e.g., back above VWAP or invalidation level) and a profit-taking bracket.
4. Avoid dead zones:
If RVOL < threshold or squeeze not released, it’s often the “hold your horses” phase — price may move but premiums don’t expand.
PLEASE USE AT YOUR OWN RISK

Estimated Manipulation Movement Signal [AlgoPoint]Follow the Footprints of Whale Movements That Drive the Market
Overview
The market is not always driven by natural supply and demand. Large players—often called "whales" or institutions—can create artificial price movements to trigger stop-losses, induce panic or FOMO, and build their large positions at favorable prices. These events are known as "stop hunts" or "liquidity grabs."
The EMMS indicator is a specialized tool designed to detect these specific moments of potential market manipulation. It does not follow trends in a traditional sense; instead, it identifies high-probability reversal points created by the calculated actions of Smart Money trapping other market participants.
How It Works: The 3-Module Logic
The indicator uses a multi-stage confirmation process to identify a potential stop hunt:
1. Anomaly Detection: The engine first scans the chart for "Anomaly Candles." These are candles with unusually high volume and a very long wick relative to their body. This combination signals a sudden, forceful, and potentially unnatural price push.
2. Liquidity Zone Detection: The indicator automatically identifies and tracks recent significant swing highs and lows. These levels are considered "Liquidity Zones" because they are areas where a large number of stop-loss orders are likely clustered. These are the "hunting grounds" for whales.
3. The Stop Hunt Signal: A final signal is generated only when these two events align in a specific sequence:
An Anomaly Candle (high volume, long wick) spikes through a previously identified Liquidity Zone.
The same candle then reverses, closing back inside the previous price range.
This sequence confirms that the move was likely a "trap" designed to engineer liquidity, and a reversal in the opposite direction is now highly probable.
How to Interpret & Use This Indicator
BUY Signal: A BUY signal appears after a sharp price drop that pierces a recent swing low (taking out the stops of long positions) and then aggressively reverses to close higher. This suggests that Smart Money has absorbed the panic selling they just induced. The signal indicates a potential move UP.
SELL Signal: A SELL signal appears after a sharp price spike that pierces a recent swing high (taking out the stops of short positions) and then aggressively reverses to close lower. This suggests that Smart Money has sold into the FOMO buying they just created. The signal indicates a potential move DOWN.
This indicator is best used as a high-probability confirmation tool, ideally in conjunction with your understanding of the overall market trend and structure.
Volume High Alert by ToledoCandelariaThis custom TradingView indicator visualizes volume activity by plotting colored boxes under each bar, highlighting different volume levels relative to a moving average. It helps traders identify significant volume spikes or drops, which can signal potential market moves or reversals.Key Features:Volume Analysis: The indicator compares the current bar's volume to a user-defined Simple Moving Average (SMA) of volume, calculated over a customizable period (default: 30 bars).
Color-Coded Boxes: Each bar is represented by a box with a color indicating its volume strength:Purple: Ultra-high volume (exceeds the SMA by a user-set multiplier, default: 2.0x).
Yellow: High volume (exceeds the SMA by a smaller multiplier, default: 1.5x, but below ultra-high).
Blue: Low volume (below the SMA by a user-set multiplier, default: 0.5x).
Green: Normal volume (falls within the defined thresholds).
Customizable Settings:Adjust the SMA length to fine-tune the volume baseline.
Modify the multipliers for ultra-high, high, and low volume thresholds.
Set the width of the boxes (in bars) for visual clarity.
Limit the number of displayed boxes (default: 500) to manage chart performance.
Alerts: The indicator includes an alert condition that triggers when a high-volume (yellow) bar is detected, allowing traders to stay informed of significant volume spikes in real-time.
How to Use:
Add the indicator to your TradingView chart (not as an overlay) and adjust the input settings to match your trading strategy. Watch for purple and yellow boxes to spot potential breakout or reversal signals, and use blue boxes to identify periods of low activity. Enable the alert to receive notifications for high-volume bars.This indicator is ideal for traders looking to monitor volume surges and lulls, providing a clear visual representation of market activity directly on the chart.
I hope that helps!

VWAP CloudVWAP Cloud
– Dynamic Fair Value Zones with Standard Deviation Envelopes
This script combines a Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) baseline with standard deviation envelopes to create a dynamic "VWAP Cloud."
The VWAP itself is a widely used fair-value benchmark, showing where trading activity is most concentrated relative to price. By adding volatility-based bands around it, this tool helps traders visualize how far price has moved away from VWAP and whether those deviations may represent normal fluctuations or potential extremes.
🔎 How the Components Work Together
VWAP Midline (optional): Provides the session or rolling fair value reference.
Inner Cloud (±1 standard deviation by default): Highlights areas where price is oscillating near VWAP. This zone often reflects balanced conditions, where price is neither excessively stretched nor deeply discounted relative to volume-weighted value.
Outer Cloud (±2 standard deviations by default): Marks wider volatility extremes. These can be used to study how price reacts to statistically significant deviations from VWAP—whether by consolidating, reverting, or extending trends.
Dynamic Coloring: The cloud adjusts color based on VWAP slope. A rising VWAP is shaded green, suggesting positive momentum, while a falling VWAP is shaded red, suggesting negative momentum. Neutral gray highlights the outer envelope to distinguish extreme zones.
⚙️ Inputs & Customization
Source: Select the price type for VWAP calculation (default: hlc3).
Session Reset: Choose between daily resetting VWAP (common for intraday strategies) or a rolling VWAP (continuous view).
Standard Deviation Lookback: Controls the sample window for volatility calculation.
Band Multipliers: Adjust the width of inner and outer clouds.
Midline Toggle: Show or hide the VWAP midline depending on chart preference.
Custom Colors: Configure bullish, bearish, and neutral shading to match your charting style.
📊 How to Use
Trend Context: Price trading above VWAP generally suggests bullish conditions, while trading below suggests bearish conditions.
Value Zones: The inner cloud helps visualize short-term balance around VWAP.
Volatility Extremes: The outer cloud highlights statistically stretched moves that traders may analyze for either continuation or mean-reversion opportunities.
Scalping, Day Trading, Swing Trading: The tool adapts to different styles, depending on whether you reset VWAP each session or use the rolling version.
⚠️ Notes
This script is for educational purposes only and should be combined with other confluence factors, proper risk management, and a trading plan.
It does not generate buy/sell signals on its own. Instead, it provides a framework to study price behavior relative to a dynamic VWAP-based fair value.
Please clean your chart of unrelated drawings/indicators before applying, so the plotted clouds and midline remain clear.
