RSI VWAP v1 [JopAlgo]RSI VWAP v1 — the classic RSI, made a bit smarter and volume-aware
We know there’s nothing new under the sun and the original RSI already does a great job. But we’re always chasing small, practical improvements—so here’s our take on RSI. Same core idea, clearer visuals, and the option to make it volume-oriented via VWAP smoothing. Prefer the traditional feel? SMA and EMA are still here—pick and compare what fits your market and timeframe. We hope this version genuinely makes your decisions easier.
What you’ll see
The RSI line with 70 / 50 / 30 rails and subtle background.
A smoothing line you can choose: VWAP, SMA, or EMA (drawn over RSI).
Shading that shows RSI vs. its smoothing (above = green tone, below = red tone).
Optional OB/OS highlight (only the portion above 70 / below 30).
Optional divergence detection & alerts (off by default to keep things light).
What’s new, and why it helps
1) VWAP-based RSI smoothing
Instead of smoothing RSI with a plain MA, you can use VWAP computed on RSI. That brings participation (volume) into the picture, which often reads momentum quality better—especially in crypto or during news hours.
2) Adaptive blending for stability
Low-volume periods: gently blends VWAP → EMA so signals don’t get brittle when participation is thin.
Volume spikes (anti-auction): tempers overreactions by blending toward EMA when z-score of volume is extreme.
Reliability guard: if volume looks unreliable, the script can auto-fallback to EMA to keep readings consistent.
3) Clean, readable visuals
A quick glance tells you regime (50 line), trigger (RSI vs. its smoothing), and stretch (70/30). No clutter.
4) Divergence on demand
Regular bullish/bearish divergence detection and alerts are opt-in. If you use them, toggle on; if not, the indicator stays lightweight.
Read it fast (checklist)
Regime: RSI ≥ 50 = bullish bias; ≤ 50 = bearish bias.
Trigger: look for RSI crossing its smoothing in the direction of the regime.
Stretch: near 70/30, avoid chasing; prefer a retest/hold.
Volume context: if the panel falls back to EMA, treat the flow signal as less reliable for the moment.
Simple playbook
Trend-pullback (continuation)
RSI ≥ 50 and RSI crosses up its smoothing → long bias.
Best at real levels (see “Location first” below), not in the middle of nowhere.
Reclaim / reject at a level
Near 70, weak candles and RSI back under its smoothing → mean-revert toward the middle.
Mirror this near 30 for longs.
Divergence as a secondary check
Start with regime + trigger; use divergence only as extra confirmation, especially on 4H/D.
Location first, always
Your timing improves dramatically at objective references: Volume Profile v3.2 (VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs) and Anchored VWAP (session/weekly/event).
No level, no trade. RSI helps time, levels define edge.
Settings that actually matter
RSI Length (default 14)
Lower = faster, noisier; higher = smoother, fewer signals.
Smoothing Type
EMA: fastest trigger; good for intraday.
SMA: calmer bias; popular for swing.
VWAP: volume-weighted RSI baseline; great when participation matters.
VWAP Length & adaptive blend
Too jittery? lengthen VWAP or reduce max blend.
Too sluggish? shorten VWAP or allow a bit more blend.
Anti-auction Z-score thresholds
Higher values = intervenes less often; lower = tames spikes sooner.
Divergence toggle
Enable only if you actually want divergence markers/alerts.
Signal gating (ignore first bars)
Markets can be noisy right after sessions turn. Delay signals a few bars if you prefer clean reads.
Starter presets
Scalp (1–5m): RSI 9–12, EMA smoothing, short lengths.
Intraday (15m–1H): RSI 10–14, EMA or VWAP smoothing.
Swing (4H–1D): RSI 14–20, SMA or VWAP, modest blend.
Works even better with other tools
Volume Profile v3.2: take triggers at VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs; target HVNs or prior swing.
Anchored VWAP: clean reclaims/rejections plus RSI regime + trigger = higher-quality entries.
(Optional) CVDv1: if aggressor flow aligns with your RSI signal, conviction improves.
Common mistakes this version helps avoid
Taking every RSI cross without levels.
Chasing near 70/30 without a retest.
Over-trusting RSI during extreme volume spikes or illiquid patches (the blend/fallback guards against this).

Momentum Variance OscillatorWhat MVO measures:
-PV (Price-Volume) Oscillator – how far price is from a volatility-scaled basis, then weighted by relative volume.
- > 0 = bullish pressure; < 0 = bearish pressure.
-|PV| larger ⇒ stronger momentum.
-Signal line (EMA of PV) – a smoother track of PV; crossings flag momentum shifts.
-Zero line gradient – instantly shows direction (greenish bull / reddish bear) and strength (paler → stronger).
-Extreme bands (±obLevel) – “hot zone” thresholds; being beyond them = exceptional push.
-Variance histogram – MACD-like view (PV minus slower PV-EMA) to see thrust building vs. fading.
-(Optional) Bar coloring & background tint – paints price bars and/or the panel on key events so you can read the regime at a glance.
-Auto-Tune – searches a grid of (obLevel, weakLvl) pairs and (optionally) auto-applies the best, ranked by CAGR vs. drawdown.
Core signals & how to trade them:
1) Define the regime:
-Bullish regime: PV above 0 and/or PV above Signal; zero line is in bull gradient.
-Bearish regime: PV below 0 and/or PV below Signal; zero line is in bear gradient.
-Action: Prefer trades with the regime (avoid fading strong color/strength unless you have a clear reversal setup).
2) Entries:
Momentum entry:
-Long: PV crosses above Signal while PV > 0.
-Short: PV crosses below Signal while PV < 0.
Breakout/acceleration:
-Long add-on: PV crosses above +obLevel (extreme top) and holds.
-Short add-on: PV crosses below −obLevel (extreme bottom) and holds.
-Histogram confirm: Growing bars in your direction = thrust improving; shrinking/flip = thrust stalling.
3) Exits / risk:
-Soft exit / tighten stops: PV loses the extreme and re-enters inside, or histogram fades/turns against you.
-Hard exit / reverse: Opposite PV↔Signal crossover and PV crosses the zero line.
-Weak zone filter: If |PV| < weakLvl, treat signals as lower quality (smaller size or skip).
4) Practical setup - Suggested defaults (good starting point):
-Signal length: 26
-Volume power: 0.50
-obLevel (extreme): 2.00
-weakLvl: 0.75
-Show histogram & dots: On
-Auto-Tune (recommended)
-Turn Auto-Select Best ON. MVO will scan obLevel 1.50→3.00 (step 0.05) and weakLvl 0.50→1.00 (step 0.05), then use the top-ranked pair (CAGR/(1+MDD)).
-If you want to see the top combos, enable the Optimizer Table (Top-3).
5) Visual options
-Bar Colors: Regime+Strength – bars follow the zero-line gradient (great for quick read).
-Extremes – paint only when beyond ±obLevel.
-Cross Signals – paint only on the bar that crosses an extreme.
-Background on breach: A one-bar tint when PV crosses an extreme.
6) Example playbook:
Long setup:
-Zero line shows bull gradient and PV > 0.
-PV crosses above Signal (entry).
-If PV drives above +obLevel, consider add-on; trail under the last minor swing or use ATR.
-Exit/trim on PV crossing below Signal or histogram turning negative; flatten on a drop through 0.
Short setup mirrors the above on the bear side.
7) Tips to avoid common traps:
-Don’t fade strong extremes without clear confirmation (e.g., PV re-entering inside + histogram flip).
-Respect the weak zone: if |PV| < weakLvl, signals are fragile—size down or wait.
-Align with structure: higher-timeframe trend and SR improve expectancy.
-Instrument personality matters: use Auto-Tune or re-calibrate obLevel/weakLvl across assets/timeframes.
8) Alerts you can set:
-Bull Signal X – PV crossed above Signal
-Bear Signal X – PV crossed below Signal
-Bull Baseline X – PV crossed above 0
-Bear Baseline X – PV crossed below 0
MTF RSI Heatmap)# MTF RSI Heatmap — v2.7.2
**Hybrid Higher-TF Trend + Intraday Impulse Detection + Smart Counters & Alerts**
Turn your lower pane into a **multi-timeframe market bias dashboard**. This heatmap blends classic RSI momentum with a **hybrid Daily/Weekly MA-stack trend** and an **intraday impulse override** that flags fast moves *as they happen*. Clean, configurable, and built for real trading flow.
---
## What it shows
* **6 stacked rows = 6 timeframes** (bottom → top).
* **Colors**: Green = Bull, Red = Bear, Yellow = Neutral.
* **Header counter**: `Bull X/6 | Bear Y/6` = live agreement across visible rows.
* **Impulse markers** ▲/▼ on intraday rows (5m/15m/60m/240m) when a shock move triggers.
* **Signal bar**: A thin column above the top row when at least **N of 6** rows align (configurable).
---
## Why it’s different
* **Impulse Override (intraday)**
Detects sharp moves using % change over the last *N* bars, optionally gated by **volume > SMA × multiplier**. This catches dumps/pops earlier than RSI alone.
* **Hybrid D/W (structure over noise)**
Daily/Weekly rows can use an **MA stack (8/21/55)** instead of RSI for a more stable higher-timeframe trend read. Optional **price > fast MA** filter for stricter confirmation.
* **Intrabar option**
Flip rows **during the bar** for early reads (accepting repaint on TF close), or keep it close-only for no surprises.
---
## Key features
* 🌈 **Theme**: Classic or High-Contrast colors.
* 🧠 **RSI thresholds**: Bull above 55, Bear below 45 (editable).
* 🧲 **RSI smoothing** (EMA) for intraday rows to reduce flicker.
* 🧰 **Compact left legend** with adjustable text size & opacity.
* 🚨 **Alerts**:
* **Impulse-only** (per TF and “any intraday”)
* **N-of-6 confirmation** (bull/bear)
---
## Recommended settings (fast opens & news)
* **Impulse**: `Bars = 1–2`, `Threshold = 0.25–0.35%`, `Vol confirm = ON`, `Multiplier = 1.3–1.5`.
* **Hybrid D/W**: `ON`, `EMA 8/21/55`, `Price filter = ON`.
* **Intrabar**: `ON` if you want intra-bar updates (repaints at TF close).
---
## How to read it
1. **Row scan**: Are the bottom (fast) rows aligning first? That’s early momentum.
2. **Header counter**: Look for 4+/6 agreement as momentum broadens.
3. **Signal bar**: Acts as a “go/no-go” confirmation when your threshold is met.
4. **Impulse ▲/▼**: Use as a **heads-up** for acceleration; then watch if rows cascade in that direction.
---
## Alerts (exact names)
Create alerts with these built-ins:
* **Impulse UP — any intraday**
* **Impulse DOWN — any intraday**
* **Impulse UP — TF1 / TF2 / TF3 / TF4**
* **Impulse DOWN — TF1 / TF2 / TF3 / TF4**
* **Bull confirmation** (N-of-6)
* **Bear confirmation** (N-of-6)
Tip: Use **Once per bar** or **Once per bar close** depending on whether you enabled *Intrabar*.
---
## Inputs overview
* **Timeframes & visibility** per row.
* **RSI**: length, bull/bear thresholds, optional EMA smoothing (intraday only).
* **Impulse**: bars, %, volume confirm, SMA length, multiplier, markers.
* **Hybrid D/W**: MA type (EMA/SMA/HMA), 8/21/55 lengths, price filter.
* **Theme & Legend**: color theme, label size (Tiny/Small/Normal), legend opacity.
* **Signal**: N required for confirmation (default 4).
---
## Pro tips
* Combine with **session opens**, **VWAP**, and **liquidity levels**.
* If you trade breakouts, let **impulse triggers** cue attention, then wait for **N-of-6** confirmation.
* For swing bias, lean on **Hybrid D/W**—it changes slower, but with intent.
---
## Notes & limitations
* **Intrabar = repaint expected** on higher-TF closes—by design for earlier context.
* Colors/thresholds are general guidance, not signals by themselves.
* Past performance ≠ future results; **this is not financial advice**.

As the timeframe increases, expand the Major setting to capture the broader market structure,
while the Minor setting refines entry and exit precision within that larger trend.
VWAP Deviation Oscillator [BackQuant]VWAP Deviation Oscillator
Introduction
The VWAP Deviation Oscillator turns VWAP context into a clean, tradeable oscillator that works across assets and sessions. It adapts to your workflow with four VWAP regimes plus two rolling modes, and three deviation metrics: Percent, Absolute, and Z-Score. Colored zones, optional standard deviation rails, and flexible plot styles make it fast to read for both trend following and mean reversion.
What it does
This tool measures how far price is from a chosen VWAP and expresses that gap as an oscillator. You can view the deviation as raw price units, percent, or standardized Z-Score. The plot can be a histogram or a line with optional fills and sigma bands, so you can quickly spot polarity shifts, overbought and oversold conditions, and strength of extension.
VWAP modes track a session VWAP that resets (4H, Daily, Weekly) or a rolling VWAP that updates continuously over a fixed number of bars or days.
Deviation modes let you choose the lens: Percent, Absolute, or Z-Score. Each highlights different aspects of stretch and mean pressure.
Visual encoding uses a 10-zone color palette to grade the magnitude of deviation on both sides of zero.
Volatility guards compute mode-specific sigma so thresholds are stable even when volatility compresses.
Why this works
VWAP is a high signal anchor used by institutions to gauge fair participation. Deviations around VWAP cluster in regimes: mild oscillations within a band, decisive pushes that signal imbalance, and standardized extremes that often precede either continuation or snapback. Expressing that distance as a single time series adds clarity: bias is the oscillator’s sign, risk context is its magnitude, and regime is the way it behaves around sigma lines.
How to use it
Trend following
Favor the side of the zero line. Bullish when the oscillator is above zero and making higher swing highs. Bearish when below zero and making lower swing lows. Use +1 sigma and +2 sigma in your mode as strength tiers. Pullbacks that hold above zero in uptrends, or below zero in downtrends, are often continuation entries.
Mean reversion
Fade stretched readings when structure supports it. Look for tests of +2 sigma to +3 sigma that fail to progress and roll back toward zero, or the mirror on the downside. Z-Score mode is best when you want standardized gates across assets. Percent mode is intuitive for intraday scalps where a given percent stretch tends to mean revert.
Session playbook
Use Daily or Weekly VWAP for intraday or swing context. Rolling modes help when the asset lacks clean session boundaries or when you want a continuous anchor that adapts to liquidity shifts.
Key settings
VWAP computation
VWAP Mode = 4 Hours, Daily, Weekly, Rolling (Bars), Rolling (Days). Session modes reset the VWAP when a new session begins. Rolling modes compute VWAP over a fixed trailing window.
Rolling (Lookback: Bars) controls the trailing bar count when using Rolling (Bars).
Rolling (Lookback: Days) converts days to bars at runtime and uses that trailing span.
Use Close instead of HLC3 switches the price reference. HLC3 is smoother. Close makes the anchor track settlement more tightly.
Deviation measurement
Deviation Mode
Percent : 100 * (Price / VWAP - 1). Good for uniform scaling across instruments.
Absolute : Price - VWAP. Good when price units themselves matter.
Z-Score : Standardizes the absolute residual by its own mean and standard deviation over Z/Std Window . Ideal for cross-asset comparability and regime studies.
Z/Std Window sets the mean and standard deviation window for Z-Score mode.
Volatility controls
Percent Mode Volatility Lookback estimates sigma for percent deviations.
Absolute Mode Volatility Lookback estimates sigma for absolute deviations.
Minimum Sigma Guard (pct pts) prevents the percent sigma from collapsing to near zero in extremely quiet markets.
Visualization
Plot Type = Histogram or Line. Histogram emphasizes impulse and polarity changes. Line emphasizes trend waves and divergences.
Positive Color / Negative Color define the palette for line mode. Histogram uses a 10-bucket gradient automatically.
Show Standard Deviations plots symmetric rails at ±1, ±2, ±3 sigma in the current mode’s units.
Fill Line Oscillator and Fill Opacity add a soft bias band around zero for line mode.
Line Width affects both the oscillator and the sigma rails.
Reading the zones
The oscillator’s color and height map deviation to nine graded buckets on each side of zero, with deeper greens above and deeper reds below. In Percent and Absolute modes, those buckets are scaled by their mode-specific sigma. In Z-Score mode the bucket edges are fixed at 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 2.8.
0 to +1 sigma weak positive bias, usually rotational.
+1 to +2 sigma constructive impulse. Pullbacks that hold above zero often continue.
+2 to +3 sigma strong expansion. Watch for either trend continuation or exhaustion tells.
Beyond +3 sigma statistical extreme. Requires structure to avoid fading too soon.
Mirror logic applies on the negative side.
Suggested workflows
Trend continuation checklist
Pick a session VWAP that matches your timeframe, for example Daily for intraday or Weekly for position trades.
Wait for the oscillator to hold the correct side of zero and for a sequence of higher swing lows in the oscillator (uptrend) or lower swing highs (downtrend).
Buy pullbacks that stabilize between zero and +1 sigma in an uptrend. Sell rallies that stabilize between zero and -1 sigma in a downtrend.
Use the next sigma band or a prior price swing as your target reference.
Mean reversion checklist
Switch to Z-Score mode for standardized thresholds.
Identify tests of ±2 sigma to ±3 sigma that fail to extend while price meets support or resistance.
Enter on a polarity change through the prior histogram bar or a small hook in line mode.
Fade back to zero or to the opposite inner band, then reassess.
Notes on the three modes
Percent is easy to reason about when you care about proportional stretch. It is well suited to intraday and multi-asset dashboards.
Absolute tracks cash distance from VWAP. This is useful when instruments have tight ticks and you plan risk in price units.
Z-Score standardizes the residual and is best for quant studies, cross-asset comparisons, and threshold research that must be scale invariant.
What the alerts can tell you
Polarity changes at zero can mark the start or end of a leg.
Crosses of ±1 sigma identify overbought or oversold in the current mode’s units.
Zone changes signal an upgrade or downgrade in deviation strength.
Troubleshooting and edge cases
If your instrument has long flat periods, keep Minimum Sigma Guard above zero in Percent mode so the rails do not vanish.
In Rolling modes, very short windows will respond quickly but can whip around. Session modes smooth this by resetting at well known boundaries.
If Z-Score looks erratic, increase Z/Std Window to stabilize the estimate of mean and sigma for the residual.
Final thoughts
VWAP is the anchor. The deviation oscillator is the narrative. By separating bias, magnitude, and regime into a simple stream you can execute faster and review cleaner. Pick the VWAP mode that matches your horizon, choose the deviation lens that matches your risk framework, and let the color graded zones guide your decisions.
Alt buy signal 1H Entry + 4H Confirm (MACD + Stoch RSI + HMA)This indicator is a multi-timeframe (MTF) analysis tool designed for the ALT trading , capturing entry signals on the 1-hour (1H) timeframe and confirming trends on the 4-hour (4H) timeframe. It combines MACD, Stoch RSI, and Hull Moving Average (HMA) to identify precise buy opportunities, particularly at reversal points after a downtrend or during trend shifts. It visually marks both past and current BUY signals for easy reference.
Key Features:
1H Entry Signal (Early Ping): Triggers on a MACD golden cross (below 0) combined with a Stoch RSI oversold cross (below 20), offering an initial buy opportunity.
4H Trend Confirmation (Entry Ready): Validates the trend with a 4H MACD histogram rising (in negative territory) or a golden cross, plus a Stoch RSI turn-up (above 30).
Past BUY Display: Labels past data points where these conditions were met as "1H BUY" or "FULL BUY," facilitating backtesting.
HMA Filter: Optional HMA(16) to confirm price breakouts, enhancing trend validation.
Purpose: Ideal for short-term scalping and swing trading. Supports a two-step strategy: initial partial entry on 1H signals, followed by additional entry on 4H confirmation.
Usage Instructions
Installation: Add the indicator to an IMX/USDT 1H chart on TradingView.
Signal Interpretation:
lime "1H BUY": 1H conditions met, consider initial entry (stop-loss: 3-5% below recent low).
green "FULL BUY": 1H+4H conditions met, confirm trend for additional entry (take-profit: 10% below recent swing high).
Customization: Adjust TF (1H/4H), MACD/Stoch RSI parameters, and HMA usage via the input settings.
Alert Setup: Enable alerts for "ENTRY READY" (1H+4H) or "EARLY PING" (1H only) conditions.
Advantages
Accuracy: Reduces false signals by combining MACD golden cross below 0 with Stoch RSI oversold conditions.
Dual Confirmation: 1H for quick timing and 4H for trend validation, improving risk management.
Visualization: Past BUY points enable easy backtesting and pattern recognition.
Flexibility: 4H confirmation mode adjustable (histogram rise or golden cross).
Limitations
Timeframe Dependency: Optimized for 1H charts; may not work on other timeframes.
Market Conditions: Potential whipsaws in sideways markets; additional filters (e.g., RSI > 50) recommended.
Manual Management: Stop-loss and take-profit require user discretion.
Ultra Liquidity Heatmap v2 [JopAlgo]Ultra Liquidity Heatmap v2 — map where price is likely to pause, ping, or pivot
Core idea
This study paints “liquidity shelves” on your chart—zones where unusually high traded volume likely clustered. In practice, those zones behave like magnets and barriers:
Magnets → price tends to revisit them.
Barriers → price often stalls / wicks there, or breaks only when there’s real pressure.
Think of each colored box as a footprint from prior transactions: “a lot of business got done here.” Price frequently checks back to these footprints to find counterparties again.
What you’ll see
Colored boxes that extend to the right from a bar’s range (high→low).
The color shows how extreme that bar’s volume was versus a long baseline.
Two streams of boxes:
High-side maintenance (built off highs)
Low-side maintenance (built off lows)
Both extend forward and update as price interacts.
Transparency control so you can keep price visible under the heatmap.
Read it fast → Where are the densest clusters of boxes? Are we approaching one from above/below? Did we wick into a box and snap back, or accept inside it?
What “liquidity” means here (plain language)
In order to move, price needs counterparties.
Areas that printed unusually high volume in the past are places where both sides engaged.
Those areas often become future decision spots: either absorb incoming orders (hold) or reject them (wick/reverse) or, if overwhelmed, price pushes through and trends.
This indicator does not show the live order book. It uses a robust proxy: statistical outliers in completed volume to infer where the book tended to be deep (and may be again).
Color scale (how extremes are decided)
We compute a Z-score for the previous bar’s volume against a 610-bar baseline:
Z > 4.0 → Extra High (default yellow) → major shelf
Z > 2.5 → High (default orange) → strong shelf
Z > 1.0 → Medium (default white)
Z > −0.5 → Normal (default lime)
else → Low (default aqua)
You can toggle which tiers to show and use gradient coloring to see intensity inside a tier.
Practical tip → For a clean map, start with Extra High and High only. Add Medium on thin markets or higher timeframes.
How the boxes behave
Each detected bar spawns a box from that bar’s high to low and extends it right.
As new bars print:
If price pushes above a high-based box, that box is retired (it didn’t hold).
If price pushes below a low-based box, that box is retired.
Otherwise, the box can adjust to the latest interaction so it stays relevant to the current range.
Meaning → The map evolves with price. You always see the still-relevant shelves, not stale ones.
The three main behaviors at a shelf
Magnet → price drifts into the box (fills in), then decides: continue or reverse.
Reject → sharp wick into the box and immediate reversal → great location to fade if other signals agree.
Accept → clean close inside/through the box and follow-through → look for break-and-retest to trade with the move.
Decide with arrows →
Approach from above → watch for reject ↘ or accept ↘
Approach from below → watch for reject ↗ or accept ↗
How to trade it (simple playbook)
1) Frame the day / swing
Map Extra High / High shelves on your higher TF (e.g., 4H / 1D).
Note clusters (multiple boxes overlapping) → stronger magnets.
2) Execute at the shelf, not mid-air
Continuation
→ Price accepts ↗ through a shelf, then retests from above and holds → long toward the next shelf.
→ Mirror ↘ for shorts.
Reversion
→ Price tags a shelf and rejects ↘ (coming from above) or rejects ↗ (from below) with confirmation → fade back to the prior range node.
3) Confirm the decision
CVDv1 (optional) →
Accept = taker flow with the break (Alignment OK).
Reject = taker attempts absorbed at the shelf (Absorption).
Volume Profile v3.2 →
Prefer trades when shelves align with VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs (location first).
Anchored VWAP →
Reclaim/reject at AVWAP that sits inside or on the edge of a shelf is high-quality timing.
4) Risk & targets
Stops → just beyond the shelf extreme you used for entry (if it’s a reject) or under/over the retest (if it’s an accept).
Targets → the next shelf; partials at intermediate VP nodes; trail if shelves are stair-stepping.
Settings that matter (and how to tune)
BG Transparency → make boxes readable without hiding price.
Box Index → where a box begins on the x-axis.
Set to 501 to anchor boxes exactly at their creation bar.
Lower values shift the start to keep the chart tidy on fast TFs.
Show tiers → start with Extra High / High; add Medium only if the map looks sparse.
Gradient coloring → keep on to see intensity; turn off for a flatter, cleaner palette.
Reading examples (quick arrow notes)
Approach from below → accept ↗ → retest holds ↗ → continuation long to next shelf.
Approach from above → wick inside → reject ↘ → rotation back toward prior node.
Multiple shelves stacked tight → expect pause / chop; wait for clear accept ↗/↘ plus retest.
Common mistakes this helps you avoid
Trading mid-range with no shelf in play.
Fading a shelf without a reject ↘ / ↗ confirmation.
Chasing a break without an accept ↗/↘ + retest.
Treating any colored box as equal—Extra High matters more than Normal/Low.
Best combos (kept simple)
Volume Profile v3.2 → shelves that coincide with VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs are higher-probability decision spots.
Anchored VWAP → reclaimed/rejected AVWAP inside a shelf = strong confirmation.
CVDv1 (optional) → confirms accept ↗/↘ (with flow) or reject (absorption).
FAQ (quick clarity)
Is this the live order book? → No. It’s a volume-based proxy for likely liquidity.
Why do boxes disappear? → When price invalidates them (pushes past their boundary), they’re retired—keeps the map current.
Which timeframe? → Build the map on your execution TF (e.g., 4H/1H) and confirm with one higher (1D/4H). Thin markets may benefit from adding Medium tiers.

WaveTrend Oscillator v3 [JopAlgo]WaveTrend Oscillator v3 — reversal focus with confirmation, not guesswork
Core idea
WaveTrend (WT) gives you a smoothed oscillator pair (WT1 and WT2) with overbought/oversold rails and a momentum histogram. This v3 adds two filters so reversals are earned, not guessed:
Heikin-Ashi trend check → only take crosses with candle bias
Reversal Confidence Score (RCS) → only fire when momentum vs ATR is strong enough
Add an optional divergence check so you only act when price and oscillator disagree into extremes.
What you’ll see
WT1 (green) and WT2 (red)
Histogram = WT1 − WT2 (gray columns)
Rails: Overbought = +60, Oversold = −60, and the Zero line
Labels when all conditions align → Smart Buy (below) or Smart Sell (above)
Read it fast → Are we near +60/−60? Did WT1 cross WT2? Is the histogram expanding in that direction? Did a Smart label print?
How the signals are built
A signal prints only if all are true:
Cross → Bull: WT1 crosses up WT2; Bear: WT1 crosses down WT2
Extreme → Bull: WT1 below −60; Bear: WT1 above +60
RCS filter → |WT1 − WT2| scaled by ATR must be > threshold (default 80)
Heikin-Ashi agreement → HA close vs open points the same way as the cross
Divergence (lookback N) → Bull: oscillator makes lower low while price doesn’t; Bear: oscillator higher high while price doesn’t
Result → a reversal-grade setup, not a continuation ping.
How to use it (simple playbook)
Direction filter
If you want a pure reversal tool, keep the default rails (+60/−60) → you’ll wait for true extremes.
If you want more frequency, relax the rails (e.g., +50/−50) or lower RCS (e.g., 70 → 65). More signals → more noise.
Entry logic
Long reversal template
→ Price drives down into a value area edge (VAL/LVN)
→ WT1 < −60, WT1 ↗ WT2, RCS > threshold, HA bias up, bullish divergence
→ Enter on reclaim of the level or on the first higher-low after the cross
Short reversal template
→ Price pushes into VAH/HVN
→ WT1 > +60, WT1 ↘ WT2, RCS > threshold, HA bias down, bearish divergence
→ Enter on rejection and lower-high after the cross
Location first (always)
Use Volume Profile v3.2 (VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs) for where to act
Use Anchored VWAP (session/weekly/event) for who has control
No level → no trade. A WT flip into a level is better than one mid-range.
Risk & targets
Stops → beyond the sweep extreme or beyond the reclaimed level
Targets → ladder to next Fib/VP nodes (POC/HVNs, VA mid), then trail behind swings or the WT zero-line reclaim
Settings that matter (and how to tune)
WT Length (default 10) → core smoothing of the channel
→ Lower = faster turns; higher = calmer oscillator
WT EMA Smoothing (default 21) and Signal Smoothing (default 3)
→ Increase to reduce chop; decrease to react earlier
Overbought / Oversold (default +60/−60)
→ Tighten to +50/−50 for more frequent reversals; widen to +70/−70 for only the strongest
RCS Threshold (default 80)
→ Down to 70 for earlier triggers; up to 90 for only the punchiest turns
Divergence Lookback (default 5)
→ Shorter finds more local divs; longer finds bigger swings
Starter presets
Intraday (15m–1H) → WT 10/21, signal 3, rails ±60, RCS 80, div 5
Swing (2H–4H) → WT 14/28, signal 3–5, rails ±60/±70, RCS 85–90, div 7–9
Pattern cheat sheet
Double-dip divergence → oscillator prints a lower low near −60 while price holds a higher low → high-quality long if RCS/HA agree
Zero-line reclaim after a smart long → momentum shift; use it to trail stops or add on retest
Failure signal → cross fires but RCS < threshold or histogram shrinks back toward 0 into a level → stand down or cut quick
Overbought drift → WT pinned near +60/+70 without cross down → trend grind; don’t fade blindly
Best combos (kept simple)
Volume Profile v3.2 → take WT reversals at VAH/VAL/LVNs; target POC/HVNs
Anchored VWAP → WT cross with an AVWAP reclaim/reject is higher quality
CVDv1 (optional) → prefer flows that align with the reversal; avoid if absorption is fighting you
Common mistakes this helps you avoid
Fading every spike without RCS/HA confirmation
Taking reversals mid-range, far from levels
Treating divergence as timing (it’s context; you still need the cross + filter)
Ignoring the zero-line behavior after entry (weak follow-through)

TTM Squeeze v5.1 [JopAlgo]TTM Squeeze v5.1 — compression → expansion, with a directional read
Core idea
This blends Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels to detect volatility compression (a “squeeze”), then uses a momentum histogram to suggest which way the release may travel.
Squeeze On → BB is inside KC → quiet, pressure building
Squeeze Off → BB exits KC → expansion likely starting
Momentum histogram → direction and pace of the expansion
Read it as: compression → expansion and let momentum tell you up or down.
What you’ll see
Momentum histogram (centered at 0):
Above 0 → bullish tilt
Below 0 → bearish tilt
Rising vs falling bars → acceleration vs deceleration
Zero-line dots colored by squeeze state:
Red at 0 → Squeeze On (BB inside KC)
Green at 0 → Squeeze Off (no compression)
Quick scan → Is the dot red or green? Is the histogram above or below 0? Are the bars growing or shrinking?
How to use it (simple playbook)
1) Detect the setup
Dot turns red → Squeeze On → build your plan at key levels (no trade by itself).
While red, map entry levels and invalidations using your price tools.
2) Trade the release
First green after a red run → Squeeze Off → look for entry with momentum direction:
Histogram above 0 and rising → long bias
Histogram below 0 and falling → short bias
3) Location first (always)
Execute at objective references:
Volume Profile v3.2 → VAH / VAL / POC / LVNs
Anchored VWAP → session / weekly / event anchors
No level → no trade. A squeeze release into a level is better than one mid-range.
4) Confirmation stack (optional but strong)
If you also use CVDv1 → prefer Alignment OK and avoid entries where Absorption is against your side.
Entries, exits, risk
Break + retest (trend release)
Condition → Dot flips green, histogram crosses/expands on the same side of 0, price breaks a mapped level.
Entry → On the first retest/hold of that level after the flip.
Stop → Beyond the level or last swing.
Targets → Next VP node (POC/HVNs) → then trail.
Range edge release (rotation to value)
Condition → Dot flips green at a range boundary (e.g., VAL/VAH), histogram aligns with the break.
Entry → On reclaim/reject confirmation at that boundary.
Invalidation → Quick loss of the boundary and histogram roll against you.
Stand down
Dot green but histogram flat near 0 → noisy release, skip or size down.
Green release into a major opposite level with shrinking bars → take partials early.
Settings that matter (and how to tune)
BB/KC Length (default 21) → the lookback for both envelopes.
Shorter → faster squeezes, more signals. Longer → fewer, larger moves.
BB Multiplier (default 1.0 here)
Higher (e.g., 2.0) → fewer, cleaner squeezes (classic TTM style).
Lower (e.g., 1.0–1.5) → more frequent “tight” squeezes.
KC Multiplier (default 1.5)
Higher → wider KC → easier for BB to sit inside → more squeeze-on periods.
Lower → fewer squeeze-on periods.
Momentum Length (default 20) for the histogram (linreg on close − KC mid):
Shorter → earlier but noisier direction reads.
Longer → steadier but slower.
Practical combos
Classic feel → BB 2.0, KC 1.5, Length 20–21, Momentum 20
Intraday fast → BB 1.5, KC 1.5, Length 14–20, Momentum 14–18
Swing calm → BB 2.0, KC 1.5–1.8, Length 21–34, Momentum 20–30
Pattern cheat sheet
Red cluster → Green + histogram expansion above 0 → upside release → buy the retest of the breakout level → trail.
Red cluster → Green + histogram expansion below 0 → downside release → sell the retest → trail.
Green but histogram crosses back toward 0 quickly → failed release → avoid or scratch.
Multiple red↔green flips near 0 → volatility churn → wait for a clear level break with follow-through.
Best combos (kept simple)
Volume Profile v3.2 → Plan the squeeze while red; trigger on green at VAH/VAL/LVN/POC.
Anchored VWAP → A release that reclaims/rejects an AVWAP with histogram expansion is higher quality.
CVDv1 (optional) → Prefer releases with taker flow; skip if Absorption fights your side.
Common mistakes this helps you avoid
Entering during the red squeeze with no price trigger.
Chasing a green flip mid-range, far from levels.
Ignoring direction when the histogram is below 0 for longs (or above 0 for shorts).
Holding when the histogram shrinks back toward 0 into your target—take profits.

ADX Colored by AO + DI DifferenceADX Colored by AO + DI Difference pepito
he Average Directional Index (ADX) is a technical analysis indicator used in trading to measure the strength of a trend in an asset's price, such as stocks, forex, or cryptocurrencies. Developed by J. Welles Wilder Jr. in 1978, it’s part of the Directional Movement Index (DMI) system.
TSI v2 [JopAlgo] – Sniper VersionTSI v2 — “Sniper” momentum that’s fast, clean, and actionable
Core idea
TSI (True Strength Index) turns raw price momentum into a smoothed, normalized oscillator so you can see trend side, turns, and follow-through without chop.
Workflow: momentum (close - close ) → double EMA smooth (fast = shortLength, slow = longLength) → normalize vs smoothed absolute momentum → scale to ±100 → signal EMA (signalLength) for triggers.
Above 0 → bullish momentum regime
Below 0 → bearish momentum regime
TSI vs Signal cross → momentum turn
Farther from 0 → stronger impulse
What you’ll see
TSI line (blue) — main momentum read
Signal line (orange) — trigger for turns
Zero line (gray) — bull/bear divider
Alerts for bullish/bearish crosses (enable if you want pane markers)
Read it in 3 seconds: Which side of 0? Did TSI cross its signal? Are bars expanding or fading?
How to use it (simple playbook)
Direction filter
Longs while TSI ≥ 0, shorts while TSI ≤ 0.
Cleanest continuation: TSI crosses up its signal above 0 (mirror down).
Act at real locations
Volume Profile v3.2 (VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs) or Anchored VWAP reclaims/rejections.
No level, no trade.
Break + retest
Break a level with TSI > 0 and crossing up → enter on the first retest that holds (mirror down).
Trend pullback
In an uptrend, TSI dips toward the signal (ideally holds above 0), then re-crosses up near a level → continuation entry.
Do less in chop
If TSI and signal braid around 0, it’s balance—only trade edges with tight risk.
Entries, exits, risk
Continuation long: TSI > 0, crosses up at VAL/AVWAP/MA cluster → enter.
Stop: below structure/last swing. Targets: POC/HVNs or next swing high.
Fresh short: Breakdown + TSI < 0 crosses down → enter on failed retest.
Invalidation: quick re-cross up + level reclaim.
Manage: Trim when TSI flattens or crosses against you into target/HVN.
Settings that matter (and how to tune)
Short EMA (default 13): responsiveness (lower = faster, noisier).
Long EMA (default 25): backbone smoothing (higher = steadier).
Signal EMA (default 7): trigger sensitivity (lower = earlier, more flips).
Suggested presets
Scalp (1–5m): 8 / 21 / 5
Intraday (15m–1H): 13 / 25 / 7 (Sniper defaults)
Swing (2H–4H): 21 / 50 / 9
Daily backdrop: 25 / 100 / 9 (execute on lower TF)
Pattern cheat sheet
Zero-line reclaim: TSI crosses 0 and signal together → regime shift; use first retest.
Continuation curl: TSI pulls toward signal, holds above 0, then re-crosses up → add/enter with trend.
Weak break tell: Level poke while TSI fails to cross or stalls near 0 → skip/wait.
Light divergence: Price higher high while TSI lower high → thinning; trail tight into HVNs.
Best combos (kept simple)
Volume Profile v3.2: entries at VAH/VAL/LVNs, targets at POC/HVNs.
Anchored VWAP: reclaim/reject + TSI cross same direction = high-quality timing.
CVDv1 (optional): take TSI-aligned trades with flow (Alignment OK, no Absorption).
RVOL (optional): prefer breaks with participation above cutoff.
Common mistakes this helps you avoid
Longs with TSI < 0 or shorts with TSI > 0.
Chasing when TSI is flattening/crossing against you into a level.
Trading mid-range while TSI/signal whipsaw around 0.
Quick defaults to start
13 / 25 / 7 on 15m–1H
Process: Location → TSI side (0) → TSI vs Signal cross → (optional) CVD/RVOL check → Structure-based risk

Trend MACD [JopAlgo]Trend MACD — momentum made obvious (4-state histogram)
What it does (one line):
A clean MACD histogram using EMA(fast) − EMA(slow) with a signal line. The columns change color to show trend side and momentum change at a glance.
Green = above 0 and rising → positive trend, momentum building
White (upside) = above 0 but fading → still positive, momentum cooling
White (downside) = below 0 but improving → still negative, momentum recovering
Red = below 0 and falling → negative trend, momentum building down
Zero line = the bull/bear divider. Distance from zero = thrust. Color change = momentum shift.
What you’ll see
Dashed zero line for the trend divider
Column histogram with the 4-state color logic above
No clutter—just momentum and regime, clean
Read it in 3 seconds: Which side of 0? Are bars getting bigger or smaller? Did the color flip?
How to use it (simple playbook)
Direction filter
Look for longs while histogram is ≥ 0.
Look for shorts while histogram is ≤ 0.
Timing
Green sequence (above 0, growing): join pullbacks at real levels.
White above 0: positive but cooling—buy pullbacks only at levels, don’t chase.
White below 0: negative but improving—prepare for reclaim trades at levels.
Red sequence: trend down—sell pops at levels.
Location first (always)
Use Volume Profile v3.2 (VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs) and Anchored VWAP (session/weekly/event).
No level, no trade.
Quality check (optional, strong)
CVDv1 : execute when Alignment OK and no Absorption against your side.
RVOL (if you track it): prefer breakouts with RVOL above cutoff.
Entries, exits, risk (keep it tight)
Continuation long: price retests VAL / AVWAP / MA cluster in an up regime (≥ 0). Histogram stays ≥ 0 and turns green again → enter.
Stop: under structure. Targets: POC/HVNs or next swing.
Break + retest: breakout through a level while histogram flips from white→green above 0 (or white→red below 0 for shorts). Enter on the retest that holds.
Trim / avoid: when bars shrink toward 0 (white) into your target / HVN—momentum is cooling. Don’t chase fresh highs with white bars.
Settings that matter (how to tune)
Fast Length (default 25)
Shorter = quicker turns (more noise). Longer = steadier, slower.
Slow Length (default 200)
Big backbone. For intraday you might use 21/55 or 12/26; for swing the default 25/200 or 20/100 is solid.
Signal Smoothing (default 9)
Higher = smoother, fewer flips. Lower = more reactive.
Source
close is fine; if you use hlc3, expect slightly smoother behavior.
Suggested presets
Scalp (1–5m): 12 / 26 / 9
Intraday (15m–1H): 21 / 55 / 9
Swing (2H–4H): 25 / 100 or 25 / 200 / 9
Daily backdrop: 20 / 100 or 50 / 200 / 9 (execute on lower TF)
Pattern cheat sheet
Green staircase above 0 → trend leg; buy pullbacks to VP/AVWAP.
White above 0 → positive but tiring; avoid chasing; wait for retest.
Flip through 0 with expansion → regime change; use the first retest at a level.
Red staircase below 0 → trend down; sell pops at VP edges.
Diverging price vs shrinking bars → momentum thinning; tighten risk.
Best combos (kept simple)
Volume Profile v3.2: entries at VAH/VAL/LVNs, targets at POC/HVNs.
Anchored VWAP: reclaim/reject with matching histogram side is high-quality timing.
CVDv1: take MACD-aligned setups with flow (ALIGN OK, no Absorption).
RVOL: confirmation that the push has participation.
Common mistakes this helps you avoid
Longs with red momentum or shorts with green momentum.
Chasing new highs on white (cooling) bars.
Trading mid-range when histogram keeps whipsawing around 0 (do less; wait for level).

Smart Choppy Index v1 [JopAlgo]Smart Choppy Index v1 — decide trend vs. chop in seconds
What it does (one line):
Measures the percent range of price over a lookback and tells you if the market is choppy (do less, fade edges) or trending (go with breaks/pullbacks).
Range% = (Highest High − Lowest Low) / Close × 100 over length
Below Choppy Threshold → likely range (red tint / X marker)
Above Trending Threshold → likely trend (green tint / ● marker)
Between them = mixed/transition (no background)
Read the pane fast
Orange line: the live Range%.
Red dashed line: Choppy Threshold.
Green dashed line: Trending Threshold.
Background: soft red during chop, soft green during trend.
Markers: X at the top when chop is detected, ● at the bottom when trend is detected.
TL;DR: Red = play defense / mean-revert. Green = play offense / trend-follow.
Simple playbook (copy this into your process)
Identify regime
Choppy (Range% < red line): prefer mean-reversion at VP edges / AVWAP; smaller targets, quicker exits.
Trending (Range% > green line): prefer breakouts + pullbacks; hold to POC/HVNs or structure.
Only execute at real locations
Volume Profile v3.2 : VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs for entries/targets.
Anchored VWAP : reclaims/rejections for timing.
Quality check (optional, recommended)
CVDv1 : execute with flow (Alignment OK, strong Imbalance, no Absorption against your side).
Risk
Stops go beyond structure/level, not on indicator flips.
If regime flips right after entry (green → red or red → green), consider tightening or exiting early.
Timeframe guidance
1–5m (scalps): length 14–20. You’ll see more flips—use thresholds a touch wider and execute only at edges.
15m–1H (intraday): length 14–34. Sweet spot for day trading bias.
2H–4H (swing): length 20–50. Fewer, cleaner signals; great for planning.
1D+ (position): length 50–100. Use as backdrop; trigger on lower TFs.
Settings that actually matter (and how to tune)
Lookback Period (length)
Shorter = faster regime changes; longer = smoother, fewer flips.
Choppy Threshold (%) / Trending Threshold (%)
Calibrate by history: scroll back and mark typical Range% during range days vs trend days for your market/TF.
If you get too many trend flags, raise the green threshold.
If everything looks “choppy,” lower the red threshold slightly.
Background color
Turn off if your chart feels busy; markers remain.
How to trade it with other tools
In Chop (red):
Fade VAH/VAL/AVWAP touches toward POC with tight stops. Confirm with CVDv1 (avoid longs if Absorption is red, etc.).
In Trend (green):
Break + retest at VP levels/AVWAP. Add on pullbacks that hold while Range% stays above the green line.
Patterns to recognize
Squeeze → Expansion: Range% ramps from below red toward/through green → expect a trend phase.
Exhaustion → Balance: After a long green phase, Range% falls back toward the middle → take profits into HVNs, expect more two-way trade.
False break tell: Level poke while Range% sits near red → low odds of follow-through; prefer reclaims.
Practical defaults to start
length = 14
Choppy Threshold = 1.5%
Trending Threshold = 2.5%
Process: Regime → Location → Flow → Execute with structure-based risk

Rate of Change Indicator [JopAlgo] (ROCI)Rate of Change Indicator (ROCI) — see impulse early, skip the dead moves
What it is (one line):
ROCI tells you how fast price changed vs N bars ago , in percent. It’s a clean momentum gauge:
Above 0 → price is higher than N bars ago (bullish momentum).
Below 0 → price is lower than N bars ago (bearish momentum).
Further from 0 → stronger impulse.
The default +5 / −5 bands highlight strong thrust . Zero-line crosses flag momentum shifts.
What you’ll see
Blue line = ROCI.
Orange dotted line = 0 (bull/bear divider).
White dotted lines = ±Strong Momentum levels (default ±5).
Green/red panel tint when ROCI lives above +5 or below −5.
Read in 3 seconds: Which side of 0? How far? Growing or fading vs last bar?
How to use it (simple playbook)
Direction filter
Trade longs only while ROCI > 0.
Trade shorts only while ROCI < 0.
Timing
Breakouts: prefer breaks where ROCI pushes through +5/−5 and holds on the first retest.
Pullbacks in trend: in an uptrend, let ROCI dip toward 0 and then turn back up → entry. (Mirror for downtrends.)
Do less in chop
If ROCI whips around near 0, you’re in balance. Only act at objective levels.
Rule of thumb: Zero cross = heads-up. ±5 hold = go-with.
Entries, exits, risk (use this, keep it tight)
Continuation entry (trend):
Bias up at your level (e.g., VAL/AVWAP). ROCI stays > 0 and turns up from a shallow dip → enter long.
Stop: under structure/level. Targets: POC/HVNs or next swing.
Breakout entry:
Break through a level with ROCI > +5 (or < −5 for shorts). Enter on the retest that holds while ROCI remains outside the band.
Invalidation: quick fall back inside the band and under 0 → stand down.
Exit/trim:
On longs, repeated lower ROCI peaks into your target (momentum fading) → take profits or tighten.
Timeframe guide
1–5m (scalps) : ROC Period 10–20, Strong 6–10. Many signals; require level + confirmation.
15m–1H (intraday): ROC Period 14–34, Strong 4–7. Sweet spot.
2H–4H (swing): ROC Period 20–50, Strong 3–6. Cleaner legs, fewer flips.
1D+ (position): ROC Period 50–100, Strong 2–5. Use for backdrop; trigger on lower TF.
Settings that actually matter (and how to tune)
ROC Period (default 32) : lookback for comparison.
Shorter = earlier signals, more noise.
Longer = steadier bias, slower turns.
Strong Momentum Threshold (default 5) : where you say “this is real thrust.”
Pick it by history: scroll back, mark thrusts that ran, and note their typical ROCI. Set the band slightly inside that value so you see the start of good moves.
Pattern cheatsheet
Impulse leg : ROCI above 0 making higher peaks → trend leg in progress.
Healthy pullback : ROCI dips toward 0 but doesn’t flip negative, then turns up → add/entry with trend.
Weak breakout / likely fail: Price pokes level but ROCI stays near 0 or rolls over quickly.
Divergence (lightweight): Price makes a higher high, ROCI peaks lower → momentum thinning; trail tight into HVNs.
Best combos (kept simple)
Volume Profile v3.2 : Use VAH/VAL/LVNs/POC for where. ROCI tells you if the break has juice.
Anchored VWAP : Reclaim/reject AVWAP with ROCI on the correct side of 0 for higher quality.
CVDv1 :
Yes: ROCI thrust + CVD Alignment OK + no Absorption → higher odds the move sticks.
No: ROCI thrust but Absorption red → don’t chase; wait for the fail/reclaim.
(Optional add: RVOL—high participation + strong ROCI is the A+ combo for breaks.)
Common mistakes this avoids
Buying a breakout while ROCI sits near 0 (no impulse).
Shorting a strong trend when ROCI is firmly > 0 (or > +5).
Treating every zero cross as a trade (it’s a heads-up, not an entry by itself).
Quick defaults to start
ROC Period: 32
Strong Threshold: 5
Process: Level → ROCI side/strength → (optionally) CVD quality → Execute with structure-based risk
Screenshots tip: show a level break where ROCI pushes through +5 and a pullback where ROCI turns up from ~0.

✨ Astonishing Smooth Double Keltner Channels ✨This indicator brings a fresh, ultra-smooth take on the classic Keltner Channels, designed to help you better visualize volatility and trend with minimal lag and maximum clarity.
Key Features:
Hull Moving Average (HMA) as the middle line for superior smoothness and responsiveness compared to traditional EMA.
Double Keltner Channels with customizable multipliers (default 4 and 8) to capture different volatility zones.
Adaptive ATR smoothing using RMA for stable yet responsive channel width.
Dynamic coloring of channel bands and background based on price position relative to the middle line — green for bullish, red for bearish.
Visual fills between channel bands for easy zone identification.
Price crossover signals plotted as arrows to highlight potential breakout or breakdown points.
Why use this indicator?
Keltner Channels are a powerful tool for identifying trend direction, volatility expansion, and potential reversal zones. This version enhances the classic formula by applying advanced smoothing techniques and visual cues, making it easier to interpret price action and make informed trading decisions.
How to use:
Adjust the length and multipliers to fit your trading style and the instrument’s volatility.
Watch the smooth middle line (HMA) to identify trend direction.
Use the channel bands as dynamic support/resistance and volatility boundaries.
Pay attention to the crossover signals for potential entry or exit points.
The background color helps quickly gauge market bias at a glance.
Feel free to customize the inputs and experiment with different settings to suit your strategy. This indicator works well on all timeframes and instruments.

Kairi Relative Index Upgrated v1Kairi Relative Index Upgraded v1 — how far from “fair” are we, right now?
Most oscillators mash together price and momentum in ways that are hard to explain to a new trader. KRI is refreshingly simple: it measures how far price is from its moving average, as a percent of that average.
KRI = 100 × (Price − SMA) / SMA
Above 0 → price is above its average (stretched up).
Below 0 → price is below its average (stretched down).
The farther from 0, the more stretched we are from the mean.
This upgraded version keeps the pane clean (zero line, colored KRI, optional guide rails at +Line Above / Line Below) so you can read extension, reversion pressure, and reclaims at a glance—on any timeframe.
(If you add screenshots: image #1 should label the zero line and ± threshold lines; image #2 should show a textbook “overshoot at VAH/VAL + KRI extreme → rotate back to POC.”)
What you’re seeing (and how to read it fast)
KRI line
Green when KRI ≥ 0 (price above SMA)
Red when KRI < 0 (price below SMA)
Zero line = the moving average itself (no stretch).
Guide lines (default +10/−10) = “This is pretty far for this setting.” Treat these as review-and-decide zones, not auto-trade signals.
Three quick reads:
Magnitude: how far from the mean (size of KRI).
Direction: above/below zero (which side of the mean).
Turn: KRI curling back toward zero (reversion starting) or accelerating away (trend impulse continuing).
What KRI really measures (plain-English)
The SMA(length) is your “fair value” line for this indicator.
KRI tells you the percentage deviation from that fair value—normalized, so you can compare across assets/timeframes with the same length.
Because it’s a pure distance metric, KRI excels at:
spotting over-extensions into VP edges (VAH/VAL) and AVWAP,
timing mean-reversion back to POC/AVWAP in balance,
confirming reclaims (KRI crossing back through zero at a level),
framing pullbacks in trend (healthy dips usually avoid deep negative KRI in strong uptrends).
Using KRI on any timeframe
The workflow is always Location → Flow → KRI:
Location: a real level (Volume Profile v3.2’s VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs or Anchored VWAP).
Flow quality: check CVDv1 (Alignment OK? Absorption not red?).
KRI: are we stretched into/away from the level, and is KRI turning?
Scalping (1–5m)
Fade the stretch (balance): At VAH/VAL or Session AVWAP, an extreme KRI that rolls back toward zero = quick rotation to the middle (POC/AVWAP).
Don’t fade if bands are expanding and flow is strong (CVDv1 says go) — big KRI can stay big in expansion.
Intraday (15m–1H)
Continuation after pullback: In uptrends, look for shallow negative KRI at support (VAL/AVWAP) that turns up → join trend.
Failed breakout tell: Price pokes above VAH but KRI barely increases or rolls over quickly → likely a reclaim back inside value.
Swing (2H–4H)
Edge-to-mean rotations: At composite VAH/VAL, KRI extremes are great context: fade back to POC/HVNs if flow doesn’t confirm a breakout.
Reclaim confirmation: After a flush below Weekly AVWAP, KRI crossing back up through zero on the reclaim bar is a clean green light.
Position (1D–1W)
Regime posture: Multi-day runs with sustained positive KRI (and shallow dips) = constructive; mirror for downtrends. Use KRI pullbacks to ~0 at Weekly AVWAP for adds.
Entries, exits, and risk (simple rules)
Mean-reversion entry: At VAH/VAL or AVWAP, wait for KRI extreme at/through your guide line and a turn back toward zero.
Stop: just beyond the level; Target: POC/HVN or the zero line on KRI.
Trend-continuation entry: In a trend, take pullbacks where KRI stays modest (doesn’t blow through your lower/upper guide) and turns back with the trend at the level.
Avoid: chasing breakouts where KRI is already extreme and still climbing unless CVDv1 says Alignment OK + no Absorption and you have a clean retest.
Settings that matter (and how to tune them)
Length (default 50): defines the moving average “fair value.”
Shorter (20–34): faster, more signals, more noise—good for intraday.
Longer (50–100): steadier, better for swings/position.
Source (default close): keep it simple; hlc3 or close both work.
Line Above / Below (defaults +10/−10): your review zones. Tune them to the asset/timeframe:
Scroll back 6–12 months and eyeball typical |KRI| spikes. Set your lines around the 80th–90th percentile of |KRI| for that market and length.
Majors often need smaller thresholds than thin alts on the same timeframe.
Tip: If your KRI is always beyond the lines, increase length or widen the thresholds. If it never touches them, shorten length or tighten thresholds.
What to look for (pattern cheat sheet)
Stretch into level → curl: KRI tags an extreme right at VAH/VAL/AVWAP, then turns back → classic rotation.
Shallow pullback in trend: KRI dips toward zero but doesn’t hit your lower guide, then turns up at support → continuation.
No-juice break: New price high with weaker KRI (smaller positive % vs prior leg) → breakout lacks extension; plan for retest or reclaim.
Zero-line reclaims: After a washout, KRI crosses zero as price reclaims AVWAP/VAL → clean confirmation.
Combining KRI with other tools
Cumulative Volume Delta v1 (CVDv1):
Use KRI for stretch/turn, CVDv1 for quality.
A KRI extreme at VAH with CVDv1 Absorption (red) is a do-not-chase; look for the fail/reclaim.
A KRI pullback toward zero at VAL with Alignment OK + strong Imbalance + no Absorption = high-quality continuation.
Volume Profile v3.2:
KRI’s best signals happen at VAH/VAL/POC/LVNs.
LVN traversals with rising KRI often run quickly to the next HVN—use VP for targets.
Anchored VWAP :
Treat AVWAP as fair-value rails. KRI zero cross on an AVWAP reclaim is your green flag; KRI extreme + failure to accept beyond AVWAP warns of a fake break.
Common pitfalls KRI helps you avoid
Buying high into a tired move: KRI already very positive at VAH and rolling over = likely rotation; wait.
Fading true expansion: In strong trends with confirmed flow, KRI can remain extreme; don’t automatically fade just because it’s “far.”
Wrong thresholds: Copy-pasting ±10 to every market/timeframe can mislead. Calibrate to the market you trade.
Practical defaults to start with
Length: 50
Lines: +10 / −10 as placeholders—calibrate later.
Timeframes: great out of the box on 15m–4H; for 1–5m try Length 34 and tighter lines; for daily swings try Length 100 and broader lines.
Process: Level → CVDv1 quality → KRI stretch/turn. If any of the three disagree, wait for the retest.
