Volume Order Block Scanner [BOSWaves]Volume Order Block Scanner - Dynamic Detection of High-Volume Supply and Demand Zones
Overview
The Volume Order Block Scanner introduces a refined approach to institutional zone mapping, combining volume-weighted order flow, structural displacement, and ATR-based proportionality to identify regions of aggressive participation from large entities.
Unlike static zone mapping or simplistic body-size filters, this framework dynamically evaluates each candle through a multi-layer model of relative volume, candle structure, and volatility context to isolate genuine order block formations while filtering out market noise.
Each identified zone represents a potential institutional footprint, defined by significant volume surges and efficient body-to-ATR relationships that indicate purposeful positioning. Once mapped, each order block is dynamically adjusted for volatility and tracked throughout its lifecycle - from creation to mitigation to potential invalidation - producing an evolving liquidity map that adapts with price.
This adaptive behavior allows traders to visualize where liquidity was absorbed and where it remains unfilled, revealing the structural foundation of institutional intent across timeframes.
Theoretical Foundation
At its core, the Volume Order Block Scanner is built on the interaction between volume displacement and structural imbalance. Traditional order block systems often rely on fixed candle formations or simple engulfing logic, neglecting the fundamental driver of institutional activity: volume concentration relative to volatility.
This framework redefines that approach. Each candle is filtered through two comparative ratios:
Relative Volume Ratio (RVR) - the candle’s volume compared to its rolling average, confirming genuine transactional surges.
Body-ATR Ratio (BAR) - a measure of displacement efficiency relative to recent volatility, ensuring structural strength.
Only when both conditions align is an order block validated, marking a displacement event significant enough to create a lasting imbalance.
By embedding this logic within a volatility-adjusted environment, the system maintains scalability across asset classes and volatility regimes - equally effective in crypto, forex, or index markets.
How It Works
The Volume Order Block Scanner operates through a structured multi-stage process:
Displacement Detection - Identifies candles whose body and volume exceed dynamic thresholds derived from ATR and rolling volume averages. These represent the origin points of institutional aggression.
Zone Construction - Each qualified candle generates an order block with ATR-proportional dimensions to ensure consistency across instruments and timeframes. The zone includes two regions: Body Zone (the precise initiation point of displacement) and Wick Imbalance (the residual inefficiency representing unfilled liquidity).
Lifecycle Tracking - Each zone is continuously monitored for market interaction. Reactions within a defined window are classified as respected, mitigated, or invalidated, giving traders a data-driven sense of ongoing institutional relevance.
Volume Confirmation Layer - Reinforces signal integrity by ensuring that all detected blocks correspond with meaningful increases in transactional activity.
Temporal Decay Control - Zones that remain untested beyond a set period gradually lose visual and analytical weight, maintaining chart clarity and contextual precision.
Interpretation
The Volume Order Block Scanner visualizes how institutional participants interact with the market through zones of accumulation and distribution.
Bullish order blocks denote demand imbalances where price displaced upward under high volume; bearish order blocks signify supply regions formed by concentrated selling pressure.
Price revisiting these areas often reflects institutional re-entry or liquidity rebalancing, offering actionable insights for both continuation and reversal scenarios.
By continuously monitoring interaction and expiry, the framework enables traders to distinguish between active institutional footprints and historical liquidity artifacts.
Strategy Integration
The Volume Order Block Scanner integrates naturally into advanced structural and order-flow methodologies:
Liquidity Mapping : Identify high-volume regions that are likely to influence future price reactions.
Break-of-Structure Confirmation : Validate BOS and CHOCH signals through aligned order block behavior.
Volume Confluence : Combine with BOSWaves volume or momentum indicators to confirm real institutional intent.
Smart-Money Frameworks : Utilize order block retests as precision entry zones within SMC-based setups.
Trend Continuation : Filter zones in line with higher-timeframe bias to maintain directional integrity.
Technical Implementation Details
Core Engine : Dual-filter mechanism using Relative Volume Ratio (RVR) and Body-ATR Ratio (BAR).
Volatility Framework : ATR-based scaling for cross-asset proportionality.
Zone Composition : Body and wick regions plotted independently for visual clarity of imbalance.
Lifecycle Logic : Real-time monitoring of reaction, mitigation, and invalidation states.
Directional Coloring : Distinct bullish and bearish shading with adjustable transparency.
Computation Efficiency : Lightweight structure suitable for multi-timeframe or multi-asset environments.
Optimal Application Parameters
Timeframe Guidance:
5m - 15m : Reactive intraday zones for short-term liquidity engagement.
1H - 4H : Medium-term structures for swing or intraday trend mapping.
Daily - Weekly : Macro accumulation and distribution footprints.
Suggested Configuration:
Relative Volume Threshold : 1.5× - 2.0× average volume.
Body-ATR Threshold : 0.8× - 1.2× for valid displacement.
Zone Expiry : 5 - 10 bars for intraday use, 15 - 30 for swing/macro contexts.
Parameter optimization should be asset-specific, tuned to volatility conditions and liquidity depth.
Performance Characteristics
High Effectiveness:
Markets exhibiting clear displacement and directional flow.
Environments with consistent volume expansion and liquidity inefficiencies.
Reduced Effectiveness:
Range-bound markets with frequent false impulses.
Low-volume sessions lacking institutional participation.
Integration Guidelines
Confluence Framework : Pair with structure-based BOS or liquidity tools for validation.
Risk Management : Treat active order blocks as contextual areas of interest, not guaranteed reversal points.
Multi-Timeframe Logic : Derive bias from higher-timeframe blocks and execute from refined lower-timeframe structures.
Volume Verification : Confirm each reaction with concurrent volume acceleration to avoid false liquidity cues.
Disclaimer
The Volume Order Block Scanner is a quantitative mapping framework designed for professional traders and analysts. It is not a predictive or guaranteed system of profit.
Performance depends on correct configuration, market conditions, and disciplined risk management. BOSWaves recommends using this indicator as part of a comprehensive analytical process - integrating structural, volume, and liquidity context for accurate interpretation.

VolumeAnlaysis### Volume Analysis (VA) Indicator
**Overview**
The Volume Analysis (VA) indicator is a dynamic overlay tool designed for traders seeking to identify high-volume breakouts, retests, and multi-timeframe volume-driven price cycles. By combining volume spikes with price action and support/resistance boxes, it highlights potential trend continuations, reversals, and cycle shifts. Ideal for intraday and swing trading on stocks, forex, or crypto, it uses a Fibonacci-inspired 1.618 multiplier to detect significant volume surges, then maps them to visual boxes and key levels for actionable insights.
This indicator draws from volume profile concepts but focuses on **breakout confirmation** and **cycle momentum**, helping you spot when "smart money" volume aligns with price extremes. It's particularly useful in volatile markets where volume precedes price moves.
**How It Works**
1. **Volume Break Detection**:
- Identifies a "Volume Break" when the current bar's volume exceeds 1.618x the highest volume from the prior 5 bars. This signals unusual activity, often preceding breakouts.
- A "Volume Retest" triggers exactly 3 bars after a break if volume has been falling steadily over those 3 bars—indicating a pullback for re-accumulation/distribution.
2. **Visual Annotations**:
- **Labels**: Green/red/yellow labels mark Volume Breaks and Retests, positioned above/below the bar based on candle direction for clarity.
- **Demand/Supply Boxes**:
- Blue semi-transparent boxes form around Retest bars, extending rightward to act as dynamic support/resistance.
- Green (bullish) or red (bearish) boxes draw from Volume Breaks, based on the original candle's open/close, highlighting potential zones for continuation.
- Limited to 5 boxes max to avoid chart clutter; older boxes fade as new ones form.
3. **Box Interaction Signals**:
- When price enters a box:
- **Reversal Hints**: Maroon (bearish rejection) or lime (bullish rejection) labels on closes against the trend with opening price momentum.
- **Breakout Arrows**: Up/down arrows on crossovers/crossunders of box tops/bottoms from Retest boxes.
- Scans all active boxes for interactions, prioritizing recent volume events.
4. **Multi-Timeframe Volume Cycles**:
- Aggregates the "Volume Break Max" level (a proxy for key price extremes tied to volume spikes) across timeframes: 1min, 5min, 10min, 30min, and 65min (using `request.security`).
- Computes **MaxVolBreak** (highest extreme) and **MinVolBreak** (lowest extreme) for trend-following levels.
- Tracks **Percent Volume Greater/Less Than Close**: Sums volumes from TFs where price is below/above these levels, creating a momentum ratio.
- **CrossClose**: Plots the prior close where this ratio crosses (gray line), signaling cycle shifts—bullish below MinVolBreak, bearish above MaxVolBreak.
- **Fills**: Red fill above CrossClose/MaxVolBreak (bearish cycle); green below CrossClose/MinVolBreak (bullish cycle).
5. **Plots**:
- Black lines for MaxVolBreak (⏫) and MinVolBreak (⏬).
- Gray 🔄 for CrossClose.
- Colors dynamically adjust (green/red) based on close relative to levels.
**Key Features**
- **Trend vs. Reversal Modes**: Toggle alerts for trend-following breaks (crosses of Max/MinVolBreak) or reversal signals (crosses of CrossClose).
- **Multi-TF Fusion**: Optionally include the chart's native timeframe in Max/Min calculations for finer tuning.
- **Box Management**: Auto-prunes to 5 boxes; focuses on retest/break alignments for "inside bar" logic.
- **Momentum Filters**: Uses rising/falling opens and crossovers for label precision, reducing noise.
- **Customizable**: Simple inputs for alert visibility and timeframe inclusion.
**Settings**
| Input | Default | Description |
|-------|---------|-------------|
| Show Volume Reversal Breaks | False | Enables alerts/labels for CrossClose crosses (cycle reversals). |
| Show Trend Following Breaks | True | Enables alerts for Max/MinVolBreak crosses (trend signals). |
| Use Current Time | False | Includes chart's native TF in multi-TF Max/Min calculations. |
**Alerts**
- **Reversal Alerts** (if enabled): "Volume Reverse Bullish/Bearish Break of " on close crosses of CrossClose.
- **Trend Alerts** (if enabled): "Trend Volume Bullish/Bearish Signal" on close crosses of Max/MinVolBreak; plus notes if prior low/high aligns with levels.
- All alerts include ticker and level value for easy scanning. Use `alert.freq_once_per_bar` to avoid spam.
**Trading Ideas**
- **Bullish Entry**: Green box formation + price holding MinVolBreak + upward arrow on retest box. Target next resistance.
- **Bearish Entry**: Red box + close above MaxVolBreak + red fill activation. Stop below recent low.
- **Cycle Trading**: Watch CrossClose crosses for regime shifts—fade extremes in overextended cycles.
- **Best Timeframes**: 5-30min for intraday; combine with daily for swings. Works best on liquid assets with reliable volume data.
**Limitations & Notes**
- Relies on accurate volume data (e.g., stocks/forex); less effective on low-volume or synthetic instruments.
- Boxes extend rightward but don't auto-delete—monitor for clutter on long histories (max_bars_back=500).
- Some logic (e.g., exact 3-bar retest) is rigid; backtest for your market.
- Open-source under MPL 2.0—fork and tweak as needed!

Grok's xAI Signal (GXS) Indicator for BTC V6Grok's xAI Signal (GXS) Indicator: A Simple Guide
Imagine trying to decide if Bitcoin is a "buy," "sell," or "wait" without staring at 10 different charts. The GXS Indicator does that for you—it's like a smart dashboard for BTC traders, overlaying signals right on your price chart. It boils down complex market clues into one easy score (from -1 "super bearish" to +1 "super bullish") and flashes green/red arrows or shaded zones when action's needed. No fancy math overload; just clear visuals like tiny triangles for trades, colored clouds for trends, and a bottom "mood bar" (green=up vibe, red=down, gray=meh).
At its core, GXS mixes three big-picture checks:
Price Momentum (50% weight): Quick scans of RSI (overbought/oversold vibes), MACD (speed of ups/downs), EMAs (is price riding the trend wave?), and Bollinger Bands (is the market squeezing for a breakout?). This catches short-term "hot or not" energy.
Network Health (30% weight): A simple "NVT" hack using trading volume vs. price to spot if BTC feels undervalued (buy hint) or overhyped (sell warning). It's like checking if the crowd's too excited or chill.
Trend Strength (20% weight): ADX filter ensures signals only fire in "trending" markets (not choppy sideways noise), plus a MACD boost for extra momentum nudge.
Why this approach? BTC's wild—pure price charts give false alarms in flat times, while ignoring volume/network ignores the "why" behind moves. GXS blends old-school TA (reliable for patterns) with on-chain smarts (crypto-specific "under the hood" data) and a trend gate (skips 70% of bad trades). It's conservative: Signals need the score to cross ±0.08 and a strong trend, reducing noise for swing/position traders. Result? Fewer emotional guesses, more "wait for confirmation" patience—perfect for volatile assets like BTC where hype kills.
Quick Tips to Tweak for Better Results
Start with defaults, then experiment on historical charts (backtest via TradingView's strategy tester if pairing with one):
Fewer False Signals: Bump thresholds to ±0.15 (buy/sell)—trades only on stronger conviction, cutting whipsaws by 20-30% in choppy markets. Or raise ADX thresh to 28 for "only big trends."
Faster/Slower Response: Shorten EMAs (e.g., 5/21) or RSI (10) for quicker scalps; lengthen (12/50) for swing holds. Test on 4H/daily BTC.
Volume Sensitivity: If NVT flips too often, extend its length to 20—smooths on-chain noise in bull runs.
Visual Polish: Crank cloud opacity to 80% for subtler fills; toggle off EMAs if they clutter. Enable table for score breakdowns during live trades.
Risk Tip: Always pair with stops (e.g., 2-3% below signals). On BTC, tweak in bull markets (looser thresh) vs. bears (tighter).
In short, GXS is your BTC "sixth sense"—balanced, not black-box. Tweak small, track win rate, and let trends lead. Happy trading!

Kalman VWAP Filter [BackQuant]Kalman VWAP Filter
A precision-engineered price estimator that fuses Kalman filtering with the Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) to create a smooth, adaptive representation of fair value. This hybrid model intelligently balances responsiveness and stability, tracking trend shifts with minimal noise while maintaining a statistically grounded link to volume distribution.
If you would like to see my original Kalman Filter, please find it here:
Concept overview
The Kalman VWAP Filter is built on two core ideas from quantitative finance and control theory:
Kalman filtering — a recursive Bayesian estimator used to infer the true underlying state of a noisy system (in this case, fair price).
VWAP anchoring — a dynamic reference that weights price by traded volume, representing where the majority of transactions have occurred.
By merging these concepts, the filter produces a line that behaves like a "smart moving average": smooth when noise is high, fast when markets trend, and self-adjusting based on both market structure and user-defined noise parameters.
How it works
Measurement blend : Combines the chosen Price Source (e.g., close or hlc3) with either a Session VWAP or a Rolling VWAP baseline. The VWAP Weight input controls how much the filter trusts traded volume versus price movement.
Kalman recursion : Each bar updates an internal "state estimate" using the Kalman gain, which determines how much to trust new observations vs. the prior state.
Noise parameters :
Process Noise controls agility — higher values make the filter more responsive but also more volatile.
Measurement Noise controls smoothness — higher values make it steadier but slower to adapt.
Filter order (N) : Defines how many parallel state estimates are used. Larger orders yield smoother output by layering multiple one-dimensional Kalman passes.
Final output : A refined price trajectory that captures VWAP-adjusted fair value while dynamically adjusting to real-time volatility and order flow.
Why this matters
Most smoothing techniques (EMA, SMA, Hull) trade off lag for smoothness. Kalman filtering, however, adaptively rebalances that tradeoff each bar using probabilistic weighting, allowing it to follow market state changes more efficiently. Anchoring it to VWAP integrates microstructure context — capturing where liquidity truly lies rather than only where price moves.
Use cases
Trend tracking : Color-coded candle painting highlights shifts in slope direction, revealing early trend transitions.
Fair value mapping : The line represents a continuously updated equilibrium price between raw price action and VWAP flow.
Adaptive moving average replacement : Outperforms static MAs in variable volatility regimes by self-adjusting smoothness.
Execution & reversion logic : When price diverges from the Kalman VWAP, it may indicate short-term imbalance or overextension relative to volume-adjusted fair value.
Cross-signal framework : Use with standard VWAP or other filters to identify convergence or divergence between liquidity-weighted and state-estimated prices.
Parameter guidance
Process Noise : 0.01–0.05 for swing traders, 0.1–0.2 for intraday scalping.
Measurement Noise : 2–5 for normal use, 8+ for very smooth tracking.
VWAP Weight : 0.2–0.4 balances both price and VWAP influence; 1.0 locks output directly to VWAP dynamics.
Filter Order (N) : 3–5 for reactive short-term filters; 8–10 for smoother institutional-style baselines.
Interpretation
When price > Kalman VWAP and slope is positive → bullish pressure; buyers dominate above fair value.
When price < Kalman VWAP and slope is negative → bearish pressure; sellers dominate below fair value.
Convergence of price and Kalman VWAP often signals equilibrium; strong divergence suggests imbalance.
Crosses between Kalman VWAP and the base VWAP can hint at shifts in short-term vs. long-term liquidity control.
Summary
The Kalman VWAP Filter blends statistical estimation with market microstructure awareness, offering a refined alternative to static smoothing indicators. It adapts in real time to volatility and order flow, helping traders visualize balance, transition, and momentum through a lens of probabilistic fair value rather than simple price averaging.

F & W SMC Alerthis script is a custom TradingView indicator designed to combine elements of a trend‑following VWAP approach (inspired by the “Fabio” strategy) with a smart‑money‑concepts framework (inspired by Waqar Asim). Here’s what it does:
* **Directional bias:** It calculates a 15‑minute VWAP and compares the current 15‑minute close to it. When price is above the 15‑minute VWAP, the script assumes a long bias; when below, a short bias. This reflects the trend‑following aspect of the Fabio strategy.
* **Liquidity sweeps:** Using recent pivot highs and lows on the current timeframe, it identifies when price takes out a recent high (for potential longs) or low (for potential shorts). This represents a “liquidity sweep” — a fake breakout that collects stops and signals a possible reversal or continuation.
* **Break of structure (BOS):** After a sweep, the script confirms that price is breaking away from the swept level (i.e., higher than recent highs for longs or lower than recent lows for shorts). This BOS confirmation helps avoid false signals.
* **Entry filters:** For a long setup, the bias must be long, there must be a liquidity sweep followed by a BOS, and price must reclaim the current‑timeframe VWAP. For a short setup, the opposite conditions apply (short bias, sweep + BOS to the downside, and price rejecting the VWAP).
* **Alerts and plot:** It provides two alert conditions (“Fabio‑Waqar Long Setup” and “Fabio‑Waqar Short Setup”) that you can attach to notifications. It also plots the intraday VWAP on your chart for visual reference.
In short, this script watches for a confluence of trend direction, liquidity sweeps, structural shifts, and VWAP reclaim/rejection, and then notifies you when those conditions align. You can use it as an alerting tool to identify high‑probability setups based on these combined strategies.

Adaptive Color Logic — EMA curve changes color dynamically:
Green when CVD > EMA (bullish pressure)
Gray when CVD < EMA (bearish pressure)
How to Use
Use Dynamic - CVD to gauge whether the market is accumulating (net buying) or distributing (net selling).
When CVD rises above its EMA, it often signals consistent buying pressure and potential bullish continuation.
When CVD stays below its EMA, it highlights sustained selling pressure and possible weakness.
The dynamic EMA makes it suitable for scalping, swing trading, and longer-term trend analysis—no need to manually adjust settings.
Best For
Traders looking to measure real buying/selling flow rather than price movement alone.
Market participants who want a plug‑and‑play CVD that stays accurate across all timeframes.
Anyone interested in volume‑based momentum confirmation tools.

Previous session High/Low – Asia London USA Overview
This indicator automatically plots the Previous Day’s (PD) session Highs and Lows for the Asia (Tokyo), London, and USA (New York) trading sessions.
Each session is color-coded for clarity:
🟩 Asia (Green)
🟥 London (Red)
🟦 USA (Blue)
At the close of each session, the indicator records that session’s high and low, draws horizontal lines across the chart, and labels them neatly in the center of each range — above the high and below the low for perfect visual balance.
⚙️ How It Works
The script continuously tracks the current high and low within each session.
When a session closes, those values are locked in as the PD High and PD Low.
Clean lines and centered labels are drawn immediately.
The labels automatically offset slightly above or below the line to avoid overlap, with user-controlled spacing.
This helps traders quickly identify where price interacts with the previous session’s structure, a core concept for many session-based and liquidity-based strategies.
🧭 Sessions and Timezones
Each market session runs in its native timezone, so you can align them perfectly to your chart or your preferred trading hours:
Asia Session: Default 08:30 – 11:00 (Australia/Adelaide time)
London Session: Default 08:00 – 10:00 (Europe/London)
USA Session: Default 09:30 – 16:00 (America/New_York)
You can change each session’s hours and timezone from the Inputs panel.
🎨 Customization
In the Inputs menu you can:
Toggle each session on or off
Choose line color and thickness
Enable or disable labels
Adjust vertical offset (ticks) for label spacing
“High label offset” – moves label further above the high line
“Low label offset” – moves label further below the low line
These adjustments make it easy to keep charts clean and readable on any instrument or timeframe.
📈 Practical Use
This indicator is ideal for:
Session traders who mark PD Highs/Lows as liquidity zones
London or NY session scalpers who watch for breakouts, fakeouts, or reversals
ICT / Smart Money Concepts users wanting automatic session reference levels
Anyone wanting a quick visual map of inter-session structure

DCA Percent SignalOverview
The DCA Percent Signal Indicator generates buy and sell signals based on percentage drops from all-time highs and percentage gains from lowest lows since ATH. This indicator is designed for pyramiding strategies where each signal represents a configurable percentage of equity allocation.
Definitions
DCA (Dollar-Cost Averaging): An investment strategy where you invest a fixed amount at regular intervals, regardless of price fluctuations. This indicator generates signals for a DCA-style pyramiding approach.
Gann Bar Types: Classification system for price bars based on their relationship to the previous bar:
Up Bar: High > previous high AND low ≥ previous low
Down Bar: High ≤ previous high AND low < previous low
Inside Bar: High ≤ previous high AND low ≥ previous low
Outside Bar: High > previous high AND low < previous low
ATH (All-Time High): The highest price level reached during the entire chart period
ATL (All-Time Low): The lowest price level reached since the most recent ATH
Pyramiding: A trading strategy that adds to positions on favorable price movements
Look-Ahead Bias: Using future information that wouldn't be available in real-time trading
Default Properties
Signal Thresholds:
Buy Threshold: 10% (triggers every 10% drop from ATH)
Sell Threshold: 30% (triggers every 30% gain from lowest low since ATH)
Price Sources:
ATH Tracking: High (ATH detection)
ATL Tracking: Low (low detection)
Buy Signal Source: Low (buy signals)
Sell Signal Source: High (sell signals)
Filter Options:
Apply Gann Filter: False (disabled by default)
Buy Sets ATL: False (disabled by default)
Display Options:
Show Buy/Sell Signals: True
Show Reference Lines: True
Show Info Table: False
Show Bar Type: False
How It Works
Buy Signals: Trigger every 10% drop from the all-time highest price reached
Sell Signals: Trigger every 30% increase from the lowest low since the most recent all-time high
Smart Tracking: Uses configurable price sources for signal generation
Key Features
Configurable Thresholds: Adjustable buy/sell percentage thresholds (default: 10%/30%)
Separate Price Sources: Independent sources for ATH tracking, ATL tracking, and signal triggers
Configurable Signals: Uses low for buy signals and high for sell signals by default
Optional Gann Filter: Apply Gann bar analysis for additional signal filtering
Optional Buy Sets ATL: Option to set ATL reference point when buy signals occur
Visual Debug: Detailed labels showing signal parameters and values
Usage Instructions
Apply to Chart: Use on any timeframe (recommended: 1D or higher for better signal quality)
Risk Management: Adjust thresholds based on your risk tolerance and market volatility
Signal Analysis: Monitor debug labels for detailed signal information and validation
Signal Logic
Buy signals are blocked when ATH increases to prevent buying at peaks
Sell signals are blocked when ATL decreases to prevent selling at lows
This ensures signals only trigger on subsequent bars, not the same bar that establishes new reference points
Buy Signals:
Calculate drop percentage from ATH to buy signal source
Trigger when drop reaches threshold increments (10%, 20%, 30%, etc.)
Always blocked on ATH bars to prevent buying at peaks
Optional: Also blocked on up/outside bars when Gann filter enabled
Sell Signals:
Calculate gain percentage from lowest low to sell signal source
Trigger when gain reaches threshold increments (30%, 60%, 90%, etc.)
Always blocked when ATL decreases to prevent selling at lows
Optional: Also blocked on down bars when Gann filter enabled
Limitations
Designed for trending markets; may generate many signals in sideways/ranging markets
Requires sufficient price movement to be effective
Not suitable for scalping or very short timeframes
Implementation Notes
Signals use optimistic price sources (low for buys, high for sells), these can be configured to be more conservative
Gann filter provides additional signal filtering based on bar types
Debug information available in data window for real-time analysis
Detailed labels on each signal show ATH, lowest low, buy level, sell level, and drop/gain percentages
RSI Colored by Relative StrengthThis indicator enhances the traditional RSI by combining it with Relative Strength (RS) — the ratio of an asset’s price to a chosen benchmark (e.g., SPY, QQQ, BTCUSD) — to create a more accurate, powerful, and dynamic momentum confirmation tool.
Instead of relying solely on RSI’s internal momentum, this version color-codes RSI values and backgrounds based on whether the asset is outperforming, underperforming, or neutral relative to the benchmark, not only identifying the RSI value, but color codes it in relation to the overall market to give more accurate confirmations.
• RS > 1 → The asset is outperforming the benchmark (relative strength).
• RS < 1 → The asset is underperforming.
• RS ≈ 1 → Neutral or moving in sync with the benchmark.
Gradient background zones:
• Green tones = outperformance (RS > 1).
• Red tones = underperformance (RS < 1).
• Gray neutral band = parity (RS ≈ 1).
Intensity adjusts dynamically based on how far RS deviates from 1, giving an at-a-glance view of market leadership strength.
• Color-coded RSI line: Green when RS > 1, red when RS < 1.
• Optional markers and labels show confirmed RS+RSI crossovers with smart spacing to prevent clutter.
• Alerts included for bullish and bearish RS+RSI alignment events.
How to Use
1. Add your preferred benchmark symbol (default: SPY).
2. Move this indicator into the same pane as your RSI (No need to overlay, does so automatically) and can also be used standalone.
3. Watch for:
• Green RSI & background: Significant momentum strength (asset trending upward and outpacing the market).
• Red RSI & background: False or insignificant momentum (asset lagging).
• Gray zone: neutral phase — consolidation or rotation period.
Use this as a trend-confirmation filter rather than a signal generator.
For example:
• Confirm and refine breakout entries when RS > 1 (RSI support = stronger conviction).
• Take profits when RSI weakens and RS slips below 1.

ICT HTF Volume Candles (Based on HTF Candles by Fadi)# ICT HTF Volume Candles - Multi-Timeframe Volume Analysis
## Overview
This indicator provides multi-timeframe volume visualization designed to complement price action analysis. It displays volume data from up to 6 higher timeframes simultaneously in a separate panel, allowing traders to identify volume spikes, divergences, and institutional activity without switching between timeframes.
**Original Concept Credits:** This indicator builds upon the HTF Candles framework by Fadi, adapting it specifically for volume analysis with enhanced features including gap-filling for extended hours, multiple scaling methods, and advanced synchronization.
## What Makes This Script Original
### Key Innovations:
1. **Three Volume Scaling Methods:**
- **Per-HTF Auto Scale:** Each timeframe scales independently for detailed comparison
- **Global Auto Scale:** All timeframes use unified scale for relative volume comparison
- **Manual Scale:** User-defined maximum for consistent analysis across sessions
2. **Bullish/Bearish Volume Differentiation:**
- Volume bars colored based on price movement (close vs open)
- Separate styling for bullish (green) and bearish (red) volume periods
- Helps identify whether volume supports price direction
3. **Advanced Time Synchronization:**
- Custom daily candle open times (Midnight, 8:30 AM, 9:30 AM ET)
- Timezone-aware calculations for New York trading hours
- Real-time countdown timers for each timeframe
- **Gap-filling technology** for continuous display during extended hours and weekends
4. **Flexible Display Options:**
- Configurable spacing and positioning
- Label placement (top, bottom, or both)
- Day-of-week or time interval labels on candles
- Works reliably in backtesting and live trading
## How It Works
### Volume Calculation
The indicator uses `request.security()` with optimized parameters to fetch volume data from higher timeframes:
- **Volume Open/High/Low/Close (OHLC):** Tracks volume changes within each HTF candle
- **Color Logic:** Compares HTF close vs open prices to determine bullish/bearish classification
- **Alignment:** All volume bars share a common baseline for easy visual comparison
- **Gap Handling:** Uses `gaps=barmerge.gaps_off` to maintain continuity during non-trading hours
### Technical Implementation
```
1. Monitors HTF timeframe changes using request.security() with lookahead
2. Creates new VolumeCandle object when HTF bar opens
3. Updates current candle's volume H/L/C on each chart bar
4. Applies selected scaling method to normalize display height
5. Repositions all candles and labels on each bar update
6. Fills gaps automatically during extended hours for consistent display
```
### Scaling Methods Explained
**Method 1 - Auto Scale per HTF:**
Each timeframe displays volume relative to its own maximum. Best for identifying patterns within each individual timeframe.
**Method 2 - Global Auto Scale:**
All timeframes share the same scale based on the highest volume across all HTFs. Best for comparing relative volume strength between timeframes.
**Method 3 - Manual Scale:**
User sets maximum volume value. Best for maintaining consistent scale across different trading sessions or instruments.
## How to Use This Indicator
### Setup
1. Add indicator to your chart (it appears in a separate panel below price)
2. Configure up to 6 higher timeframes (default: 5m, 15m, 1H, 4H, 1D, 1W)
3. Set number of candles to display for each timeframe
4. Choose volume scaling method based on your analysis needs
5. Enable "Fix gaps in non-trading hours" for extended hours trading (enabled by default)
### Interpretation
**Volume Spikes:**
- Sudden increase in volume height indicates institutional activity or strong conviction
- Compare volume between timeframes to identify where the real money is moving
- Look for volume spikes that appear across multiple timeframes simultaneously
**Bullish vs Bearish Volume:**
- **Green volume bars:** Price closed higher (buying pressure)
- **Red volume bars:** Price closed lower (selling pressure)
- High green volume during uptrend = confirmation of strength
- High red volume during downtrend = confirmation of weakness
- High volume opposite to trend = potential reversal warning
**Multi-Timeframe Context:**
- **5m/15m:** Scalping and day trading activity
- **1H/4H:** Swing trading and intraday institutional flows
- **Daily/Weekly:** Major position building and long-term trends
**Divergences:**
- Price making new highs but volume declining = weakening trend
- Volume increasing while price consolidates = potential breakout brewing
- Price breaks level but volume doesn't confirm = likely false breakout
### Practical Examples
**Example 1 - Institutional Confirmation:**
Price breaks above resistance. Check volume across timeframes:
- 5m shows spike = retail interest
- 15m + 1H + 4H all show spikes = institutional confirmation
- **Trade confidence: HIGH**
**Example 2 - False Breakout Detection:**
Price breaks resistance with:
- High volume on 5m only
- Normal/low volume on 1H and 4H
- **Interpretation:** Likely retail trap, institutions not participating
- **Action:** Wait for pullback or avoid
**Example 3 - Accumulation Phase:**
Price ranges sideways but:
- Daily volume gradually increasing
- Weekly volume above average
- **Interpretation:** Smart money accumulating
- **Action:** Prepare for breakout in direction of volume
**Example 4 - Volume Divergence:**
Price makes new high:
- Current high has lower volume than previous high across all timeframes
- **Interpretation:** Weakening momentum
- **Action:** Consider profit-taking or reversal trade
## Configuration Parameters
### Timeframe Settings
- **HTF 1-6:** Select timeframes (must be higher than chart timeframe)
- **Max Display:** Number of candles to show per timeframe (1-50)
- **Limit to Next HTFs:** Display only first N enabled timeframes (1-6)
### Styling

- **Padding from current candles:** Distance offset from live price action
- **Space between candles:** Gap between individual volume bars
- **Space between Higher Timeframes:** Gap between different timeframe groups
- **Candle Width:** Thickness of volume bars (1-4, multiplied by 2)
### Volume Settings
- **Volume Scale Method:** Choose 1, 2, or 3
- 1 = Auto Scale per HTF (each TF independent)
- 2 = Global Auto Scale (all TF unified)
- 3 = Manual Scale (user-defined max)

### Advanced Settings
- **Fix gaps in non-trading hours:** Maintains alignment during extended hours and weekends (recommended: ON)
- Prevents visual gaps during forex weekend closures
- Ensures consistent display during crypto 24/7 trading
- Improves backtesting reliability
## Best Practices
1. **Pair with Price Action:** Use alongside HTF price candles indicator for complete picture
2. **Start Simple:** Enable 2-3 timeframes initially (e.g., 15m, 1H, 4H), add more as needed
3. **Match Settings:** Use same candle width/spacing as companion price indicator for visual alignment
4. **Scale Appropriately:**
- Use **Global scale** (Method 2) when comparing timeframes
- Use **Per-HTF scale** (Method 1) for pattern analysis within each timeframe
- Use **Manual scale** (Method 3) for consistent day-to-day comparison
5. **Watch for Volume Clusters:** High volume appearing simultaneously across multiple HTFs signals significant market events
6. **Confirm Breakouts:** Always check if volume supports the price movement across higher timeframes
7. **Extended Hours:** Keep "Fix gaps" enabled for 24/7 markets (Forex, Crypto) and weekend analysis
## Technical Notes
- **Timezone:** All calculations use America/New_York timezone for consistency
- **Real-time Updates:** Volume and timers update on each tick during market hours
- **Performance:** Optimized with max_bars_back=5000 for extensive historical analysis
- **Compatibility:** Works on all instruments with volume data (Stocks, Forex, Crypto, Futures)
- **Gap Handling:** Uses `barmerge.gaps_off` to fill data gaps during non-trading periods
- **Backtesting:** Uses `lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on` for stable historical data without repainting
- **Data Continuity:** Automatically handles market closures, weekends, and extended hours

Luxy Adaptive MA Cloud - Trend Strength & Signal Tracker V2Luxy Adaptive MA Cloud - Professional Trend Strength & Signal Tracker
Next-generation moving average cloud indicator combining ultra-smooth gradient visualization with intelligent momentum detection. Built for traders who demand clarity, precision, and actionable insights.
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
WHAT MAKES THIS INDICATOR SPECIAL?
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
Unlike traditional MA indicators that show static lines, Luxy Adaptive MA Cloud creates a living, breathing visualization of market momentum. Here's what sets it apart:
Exponential Gradient Technology
This isn't just a simple fill between two lines. It's a professionally engineered gradient system with 26 precision layers using exponential density distribution. The result? An organic, cloud-like appearance where the center is dramatically darker (15% transparency - where crossovers and price action occur), while edges fade gracefully (75% transparency). Think of it as a visual "heat map" of trend strength.
Dynamic Momentum Intelligence
Most MA clouds only show structure (which MA is on top). This indicator shows momentum strength in real-time through four intelligent states:
- 🟢 Bright Green = Explosive bullish momentum (both MAs rising strongly)
- 🔵 Blue = Weakening bullish (structure intact, but momentum fading)
- 🟠 Orange = Caution zone (bearish structure forming, weak momentum)
- 🔴 Deep Red = Strong bearish momentum (both MAs falling)
The cloud literally tells you when trends are accelerating or losing steam.
Conditional Performance Architecture
Every calculation is optimized for speed. Disable a feature? It stops calculating entirely—not just hidden, but not computed . The 26-layer gradient only renders when enabled. Toggle signals off? Those crossover checks don't run. This makes it one of the most efficient cloud indicators available, even with its advanced visual system.
Zero Repaint Guarantee
All signals and momentum states are based on confirmed bar data only . What you see in historical data is exactly what you would have seen trading live. No lookahead bias. No repainting tricks. No signals that "magically" appear perfect in hindsight. If a signal shows in history, it would have triggered in real-time at that exact moment.
Educational by Design
Every single input includes comprehensive tooltips with:
- Clear explanations of what each parameter does
- Practical examples of when to use different settings
- Recommended configurations for scalping, day trading, and swing trading
- Real-world trading impact ("This affects entry timing" vs "This is visual only")
You're not just getting an indicator—you're learning how to use it effectively .
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
THE GRADIENT CLOUD - TECHNICAL DETAILS
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
Architecture:
26 precision layers for silk-smooth transitions
Exponential density curve - layers packed tightly near center (where crossovers happen), spread wider at edges
75%-15% transparency range - center is highly opaque (15%), edges fade gracefully (75%)
V-Gradient design - emphasizes the action zone between Fast and Medium MAs
The Four Momentum States:
🟢 GREEN - Strong Bullish
Fast MA above Medium MA
Both MAs rising with momentum > 0.02%
Action: Enter/hold LONG positions, strong uptrend confirmed
🔵 BLUE - Weak Bullish
Fast MA above Medium MA
Weak or flat momentum
Action: Caution - bullish structure but losing strength, consider trailing stops
🟠 ORANGE - Weak Bearish
Medium MA above Fast MA
Weak or flat momentum
Action: Warning - bearish structure developing, consider exits
🔴 RED - Strong Bearish
Medium MA above Fast MA
Both MAs falling with momentum < -0.02%
Action: Enter/hold SHORT positions, strong downtrend confirmed
Smooth Transitions: The momentum score is smoothed using an 8-bar EMA to eliminate noise and prevent whipsaws. You see the true trend , not every minor fluctuation.

FLEXIBLE MOVING AVERAGE SYSTEM
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
Three Customizable MAs:
Fast MA (default: EMA 10) - Reacts quickly to price changes, defines short-term momentum
Medium MA (default: EMA 20) - Balances responsiveness with stability, core trend reference
Slow MA (default: SMA 200, optional) - Long-term trend filter, major support/resistance
Six MA Types Available:
EMA - Exponential; faster response, ideal for momentum and day trading
SMA - Simple; smooth and stable, best for swing trading and trend following
WMA - Weighted; middle ground between EMA and SMA
VWMA - Volume-weighted; reflects market participation, useful for liquid markets
RMA - Wilder's smoothing; used in RSI/ADX, excellent for trend filters
HMA - Hull; extremely responsive with minimal lag, aggressive option
Recommended Settings by Trading Style:
Scalping (1m-5m):
Fast: EMA(5-8)
Medium: EMA(10-15)
Slow: Not needed or EMA(50)
Day Trading (5m-1h):
Fast: EMA(10-12)
Medium: EMA(20-21)
Slow: SMA(200) for bias
Swing Trading (4h-1D):
Fast: EMA(10-20)
Medium: EMA(34-50)
Slow: SMA(200)
Pro Tip: Start with Fast < Medium < Slow lengths. The gradient works best when there's clear separation between Fast and Medium MAs.

CROSSOVER SIGNALS - CLEAN & RELIABLE
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
Golden Cross ⬆ LONG Signal
Fast MA crosses above Medium MA
Classic bullish reversal or trend continuation signal
Most reliable when accompanied by GREEN cloud (strong momentum)
Death Cross ⬇ SHORT Signal
Fast MA crosses below Medium MA
Classic bearish reversal or trend continuation signal
Most reliable when accompanied by RED cloud (strong momentum)
Signal Intelligence:
Anti-spam filter - Minimum 5 bars between signals prevents noise
Clean labels - Placed precisely at crossover points
Alert-ready - Built-in ALERTS for automated trading systems
No repainting - Signals based on confirmed bars only
Signal Quality Assessment:
High-Quality Entry:
Golden Cross + GREEN cloud + Price above both MAs
= Strong bullish setup ✓
Low-Quality Entry (skip or wait):
Golden Cross + ORANGE cloud + Choppy price action
= Weak bullish setup, likely whipsaw ✗

HOW TO USE - PRACTICAL TRADING GUIDE
═══════════════════════════════════════════════
STRATEGY 1: Trend Following
Identify trend : Wait for GREEN (bullish) or RED (bearish) cloud
Enter on signal : Golden Cross in GREEN cloud = LONG, Death Cross in RED cloud = SHORT
Hold position : While cloud maintains color
Exit signals :
• Cloud turns ORANGE/BLUE = momentum weakening, tighten stops
• Opposite crossover = close position
• Cloud turns opposite color = full reversal
STRATEGY 2: Pullback Entries
Confirm trend : GREEN cloud established (bullish bias)
Wait for pullback : Price touches or crosses below Fast MA
Enter when : Price rebounds back above Fast MA with cloud still GREEN
Stop loss : Below Medium MA or recent swing low
Target : Previous high or when cloud weakens
STRATEGY 3: Momentum Confirmation
Your setup triggers : (e.g., chart pattern, support/resistance)
Check cloud color :
• GREEN = proceed with LONG
• RED = proceed with SHORT
• BLUE/ORANGE = skip or reduce size
Use gradient as confluence : Not as primary signal, but as momentum filter
Risk Management Tips:
Never enter against the cloud color (don't LONG in RED cloud)
Reduce position size during BLUE/ORANGE (transition periods)
Place stops beyond Medium MA for swing trades
Use Slow MA (200) as final trend filter - don't SHORT above it in uptrends
