Smart Money Trades Pro [BOSWaves]Smart Money Trades Pro – Advanced Market Structure & Liquidity Visualizer
Overview
Smart Money Trades Pro is a comprehensive trading tool designed for traders seeking an in-depth understanding of market structure, liquidity dynamics, and institutional flow. The indicator systematically identifies key market turning points, including break of structure (BOS) and change of character (CHoCH) events, and overlays these with adaptive visualizations to highlight high-probability trade setups. By integrating ATR-based risk zones, progressive take-profit levels, and real-time trade analytics, Smart Money Trades Pro transforms complex price action into an interpretable framework suitable for multiple trading styles, including scalping, intraday, and swing trading.
Unlike traditional static indicators, Smart Money Trades Pro adapts continuously to market conditions. It evaluates swing highs and lows over a configurable lookback period, then determines structural breaks using customizable confirmation methods (candle body or wick). The resulting signals are augmented with dynamic entry, stop-loss, and target levels, allowing traders to analyze potential trade opportunities with both precision and context. The indicator’s design ensures that each visual element—trend-colored candles, signal markers, and risk/reward boxes—reflects real-time market conditions, offering an actionable interpretation of institutional activity.
How It Works
The indicator’s foundation is built upon market structure analysis. By calculating pivot highs and lows over a specified period, Smart Money Trades Pro identifies potential points of liquidity accumulation and exhaustion. When price breaks a pivot high or low, the indicator evaluates whether this constitutes a BOS or a CHoCH, signaling trend continuation or reversal. These events are marked on the chart with distinct visual cues, allowing traders to quickly discern shifts in market sentiment without manually analyzing historical price action.
Once a structural break is confirmed, the indicator automatically determines entry levels, stop-loss placements, and progressive take-profit zones (TP1, TP2, TP3). These calculations are based on ATR-derived volatility, ensuring that targets scale with current market conditions. Risk and reward zones are plotted as shaded boxes, providing a clear visual representation of potential profit relative to risk for each trade setup. This system allows traders to maintain discipline and consistency, with dynamic trade management baked directly into the visualization.
Trend direction is further reinforced by color-coded candles, which reflect the prevailing market bias. Bullish trends are represented by one color, bearish trends by another, and neutral conditions are displayed in muted tones. This continuous visual feedback simplifies the process of trend assessment and helps confirm the validity of trade setups alongside BOS and CHoCH markers.
Signals and Breakouts
Smart Money Trades Pro includes structured visual signals to indicate actionable price movements:
Bullish Break Signals – Triangular markers below the candle appear when a swing high is broken, suggesting potential long opportunities.
Bearish Break Signals – Triangular markers above the candle appear when a swing low is broken, indicating potential short setups.
Change of Character (CHoCH) – Special markers highlight trend reversals, showing where momentum shifts from bullish to bearish or vice versa.
These markers are strategically spaced to prevent overlap and remain clear during high-volatility periods. Traders can use them in combination with trend-colored candles, risk/reward zones, and ATR-based targets to assess the strength and reliability of each setup. The integrated table provides live trade information, including entry price, stop-loss level, take-profit levels, risk/reward ratio, and trade direction, ensuring that trade decisions are informed and data-driven.
Interpretation
Trend Analysis : The indicator’s trend coloring, combined with BOS and CHoCH detection, provides an immediate view of market direction. Rising structures indicate bullish momentum, while falling structures signal bearish momentum. CHoCH markers highlight potential trend reversals or significant liquidity sweeps.
Volatility and Risk Assessment : ATR-based calculations determine stop-loss distances and target levels, giving a quantitative measure of risk relative to market volatility. Wide ATR readings indicate periods of high price fluctuation, whereas narrow readings suggest consolidation and reduced risk exposure.
Market Structure Insights : By monitoring swing highs and lows alongside break confirmations, traders can identify where institutional players are likely active. Areas with multiple structural breaks or overlapping targets can indicate liquidity hotspots, potential reversal zones, or areas of market congestion.
Trade Management : The built-in trade zones allow traders to visualize entry, risk, and reward simultaneously. Progressive targets (TP1, TP2, TP3) reflect incremental profit-taking strategies, while dynamic stop-loss levels help preserve capital during adverse moves.
Strategy Integration
Smart Money Trades Pro supports a range of trading approaches:
Trend Following : Enter trades in the direction of confirmed BOS while using CHoCH markers and trend-colored candles to validate momentum.
Pullback Entries : Use failed breakout retests or minor reversals toward broken structure levels for lower-risk entries.
Mean Reversion : In consolidated zones with narrow ATR and repeated BOS/CHoCH activity, anticipate reversals or short-term corrective moves.
Multi-Timeframe Confirmation : Overlay signals on higher or lower timeframes to filter noise and improve trade accuracy.
Stop-loss levels should be placed just beyond the opposing structural point, while take-profit targets can be scaled using the ATR-based zones. Progressive targets allow for partial exits or scaling out of trades while maintaining exposure to larger moves.
Advanced Techniques
Traders seeking greater precision can combine Smart Money Trades Pro with volume, momentum, or volatility indicators to validate signals. Observing sequences of BOS and CHoCH markers across multiple timeframes provides insight into liquidity accumulation and depletion trends. Tracking the expansion or contraction of ATR-based zones helps anticipate shifts in volatility, enabling better timing for entries and exits.
Customizing the structure period and confirmation type allows the indicator to adapt to different asset classes and timeframes. Shorter periods increase sensitivity to smaller swings, while longer periods filter noise and emphasize higher-probability structural breaks. By integrating these features, the indicator offers a robust statistical framework for disciplined, data-driven trading decisions.

Standardized Cumulative Deltas [LuxAlgo]The Standardized Cumulative Deltas tool allows traders to compare the cumulative standardized open-close difference for up to 10 different tickers, allowing them to visualize the general sentiment for all selected tickers.
These results allow the construction of two areas showing the average or extreme bullish and bearish cumulative change for all enabled tickers, providing a summarized view of the overall ticker group sentiment.
🔶 USAGE
This tool is meant to give a full picture of the individuals and/or overall selected tickers, and unlike classical indicators, the displayed series of values is not meant to be directly interpreted over time.
Given the selected lookback period, a majority of observations being above 0 indicate an overall bullish market for the asset.
By default, the auto lookback period feature is enabled, allowing the tool to use all the visible bars for its calculations. Traders can also set the lookback period manually. The above chart uses a fixed lookback period of 500.
Up to 10 tickers can be used. While major cryptocurrencies are set by default, the users can set a specific basket of assets, such as US equities, forex pairs, commodities, etc.
🔹 Densities
The provided areas, here called densities, can be used to get an overall sentiment of the selected tickers. The upper density (bullish) processes positive deltas, while the lower one (bearish) processes negative ones.
Interpretation is subject to the selected "Density Mode".
Average: Densities track the average bullish/bearish cumulative deltas for the selected tickers. For example, a more prominent bullish density would indicate that, on average, cumulative deltas were positive across the tickers.
Envelope: Densities track the extreme values made by bullish/bearish cumulative deltas for the selected tickers. Here, a more prominent density would indicate more volatile bullish/bearish movements, depending on the density.
🔹 Dashboard
The tool features a dashboard with active tickers and their respective colors for traders' convenience.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Densities
Densities are obtained by applying a forward-backward exponential moving average on the average, or the highest/lowest cumulative series, depending on the selected Density Mode.
The resulting densities are smoothed by the "Smoothing" parameter located in the Settings panel, with higher values returning smoother envelopes with less variability.
Do note that the smoothing method used here is subject to repainting.
🔶 SETTINGS

Anchored Grids ft. VolumeINTRO
The 'Volume Profile' is a great tool, isn’t it? It shows us where volume has accumulated on the chart and helps guide trading decisions. The only catch is that we can’t really choose the levels—it’s all based on where volume happens to cluster. But what if we reversed the logic and measured the volume at the levels we define? That’s exactly what this script does, giving you a fresh way to spot support and resistance :)
OVERVIEW
'Anchored Grids ft. Volume' is a sophisticated technical analysis tool that combines price grid analysis with volume accumulation metrics. This indicator dynamically calculates and displays custom support and resistance levels based on a user-defined timeframe, while simultaneously tracking and visualizing volume accumulation at each specific price level. Unlike traditional volume profile indicators that use complex statistical clustering, this tool provides straightforward volume measurement at predetermined technical levels. It answers a critical question: "How much trading activity occurred near the key price levels I care about?".
HOW DOES THIS INDICATOR WORK?
This indicator builds a customizable grid system anchored to the opening price of any user-selected timeframe (hourly, daily, weekly, etc.). From that anchor point, it continuously tracks the highest high and lowest low, then calculates equidistant grid levels within that range. Two calculation modes are available—Arithmetic and Geometric—allowing flexibility in how the levels are distributed.
Once the grid is established, a volume accumulation engine comes into play. For each price bar, the script checks whether the bar’s range intersects with any level’s tolerance zone (default 0.01%). If a touch is detected, that bar’s volume is added to the corresponding level. Over time, this process builds a clear picture of where significant trading activity has clustered.
The visualization system highlights these dynamics by applying a color gradient based on volume intensity and adjusting line thickness proportional to accumulated volume. Each level is also labeled with four key data points:
The grid number (in square brackets)
The price of the level
The percentage distance between the level and the opening price of the selected timeframe
The total volume accumulated within the level’s tolerance range
PARAMETERS
Timeframe: Defines the anchor period for grid calculation. Then, the indicator automatically determines the open, high, and low prices.
Mode: This option determines how the distance between levels is calculated: Arithmetic (linear) means equal price spacing between levels, while Geometric (logarithmic) means equal percentage spacing between levels.
Grids: It's the number of levels between high and low.
Color: Base color for grid lines and labels. When volume data is displayed, lower values are darkened by 50%.
Show Volume Accumulation: When this parameter is activated, the volume calculation is enabled.
Tolerance : The Tolerance parameter (default range: 0.01%) defines the price range around each grid level where volume accumulation is registered. It acts as a sensitivity control that determines how close price must be to a level to count trading volume toward that level's accumulation.
ORIGINALITY
It’s possible to find comprehensive grid-drawing tools among community indicators, but I haven’t come across an example that combines this concept with volume data. More importantly, I wanted to demonstrate how volume accumulation can be generated for any data modeled as an array on the chart by developers.
SUMMARY
In conclusion, the selected timeframe and the number of grids are only used as a reference to determine where the levels are drawn. The true value of this indicator lies in its ability to calculate volume accumulation directly from the chart’s own candles, showing how much trading activity occurred around each level. The result is a hybrid framework that merges structural price analysis with volume distribution, offering traders deeper insights into where markets are likely to react.
NOTE
While powerful, this tool should be used as part of a comprehensive trading strategy rather than as a standalone system. Always combine with risk management principles and market context awareness. I hope it helps everyone. Trade as safely as possible. Best of luck!

Adaptive Valuation [BackQuant]Adaptive Valuation
What this is
A composite, zero-centered oscillator that standardizes several classic indicators and blends them into one “valuation” line. It computes RSI, CCI, Demarker, and the Price Zone Oscillator, converts each to a rolling z-score, then forms a weighted average. Optional smoothing, dynamic overbought and oversold bands, and an on-chart table make the inputs and the final score easy to inspect.
How it works
Components
• RSI with its own lookback.
• CCI with its own lookback.
• DM (Demarker) with its own lookback.
• PZO (Price Zone Oscillator) with its own lookback.
Standardization via z-score
Each component is transformed using a rolling z-score over lookback bars:
z = (value − mean) ÷ stdev , where the mean is an EMA and the stdev is rolling.
This puts all inputs on a comparable scale measured in standard deviations.
Weighted blend
The z-scores are combined with user weights w_rsi, w_cci, w_dm, w_pzo to produce a single valuation series. If desired, it is then smoothed with a selected moving average (SMA, EMA, WMA, HMA, RMA, DEMA, TEMA, LINREG, ALMA, T3). ALMA’s sigma input shapes its curve.
Dynamic thresholds (optional)
Two ways to set overbought and oversold:
• Static : fixed levels at ob_thres and os_thres .
• Dynamic : ±k·σ bands, where σ is the rolling standard deviation of the valuation over dynLen .
Bands can be centered at zero or around the valuation’s rolling mean ( centerZero ).
Visualization and UI
• Zero line at 0 with gradient fill that darkens as the valuation moves away from 0.
• Optional plotting of band lines and background highlights when OB or OS is active.
• Optional candle and background coloring driven by the valuation.
• Summary table showing each component’s current z-score, the final score, and a compact status.
How it can be used
• Bias filter : treat crosses above 0 as bullish bias and below 0 as bearish bias.
• Mean-reversion context : look for exhaustion when the valuation enters the OB or OS region, then watch for exits from those regions or a return toward 0.
• Signal confirmation : use the final score to confirm setups from structure or price action.
• Adaptive banding : with dynamic thresholds, OB and OS adjust to prevailing variability rather than relying on fixed lines.
• Component tuning : change weights to emphasize trend (raise DM, reduce RSI/CCI) or range behavior (raise RSI/CCI, reduce DM). PZO can help in swing environments.
Why z-score blending helps
Indicators often live on different scales. Z-scoring places them on a common, unitless axis, so a one-sigma move in RSI has comparable influence to a one-sigma move in CCI. This reduces scale bias and allows transparent weighting. It also facilitates regime-aware thresholds because the dynamic bands scale with recent dispersion.
Inputs to know
• Component lookbacks : rsilb, ccilb, dmlb, pzolb control each raw signal.
• Standardization window : lookback sets the z-score memory. Longer smooths, shorter reacts.
• Weights : w_rsi, w_cci, w_dm, w_pzo determine each component’s influence.
• Smoothing : maType, smoothP, sig govern optional post-blend smoothing.
• Dynamic bands : dyn_thres, dynLen, thres_k, centerZero configure the adaptive OB/OS logic.
• UI : toggle the plot, table, candle coloring, and threshold lines.
Reading the plot
• Above 0 : composite pressure is positive.
• Below 0 : composite pressure is negative.
• OB region : valuation above the chosen OB line. Risk of mean reversion rises and momentum continuation needs evidence.
• OS region : mirror logic on the downside.
• Band exits : leaving OB or OS can serve as a normalization cue.
Strengths
• Normalizes heterogeneous signals into one interpretable series.
• Adjustable component weights to match instrument behavior.
• Dynamic thresholds adapt to changing volatility and drift.
• Transparent diagnostics from the on-chart table.
• Flexible smoothing choices, including ALMA and T3.
Limitations and cautions
• Z-scores assume a reasonably stationary window. Sharp regime shifts can make recent bands unrepresentative.
• Highly correlated components can overweight the same effect. Consider adjusting weights to avoid double counting.
• More smoothing adds lag. Less smoothing adds noise.
• Dynamic bands recalibrate with dynLen ; if set too short, bands may swing excessively. If too long, bands can be slow to adapt.
Practical tuning tips
• Trending symbols: increase w_dm , use a modest smoother like EMA or T3, and use centerZero dynamic bands.
• Choppy symbols: increase w_rsi and w_cci , consider ALMA with a higher sigma , and widen bands with a larger thres_k .
• Multiday swing charts: lengthen lookback and dynLen to stabilize the scale.
• Lower timeframes: shorten component lookbacks slightly and reduce smoothing to keep signals timely.
Alerts
• Enter and exit of Overbought and Oversold, based on the active band choice.
• Bullish and bearish zero crosses.
Use alerts as prompts to review context rather than as stand-alone trade commands.
Final Remarks
We created this to show people a different way of making indicators & trading.
You can process normal indicators in multiple ways to enhance or change the signal, especially with this you can utilise machine learning to optimise the weights, then trade accordingly.
All of the different components were selected to give some sort of signal, its made out of simple components yet is effective. As long as the user calibrates it to their Trading/ investing style you can find good results. Do not use anything standalone, ensure you are backtesting and creating a proper system.

Adaptive Rolling Quantile Bands [CHE] Adaptive Rolling Quantile Bands
Part 1 — Mathematics and Algorithmic Design
Purpose. The indicator estimates distribution‐aware price levels from a rolling window and turns them into dynamic “buy” and “sell” bands. It can work on raw price or on *residuals* around a baseline to better isolate deviations from trend. Optionally, the percentile parameter $q$ adapts to volatility via ATR so the bands widen in turbulent regimes and tighten in calm ones. A compact, latched state machine converts these statistical levels into high-quality discretionary signals.
Data pipeline.
1. Choose a source (default `close`; MTF optional via `request.security`).
2. Optionally compute a baseline (`SMA` or `EMA`) of length $L$.
3. Build the *working series*: raw price if residual mode is off; otherwise price minus baseline (if a baseline exists).
4. Maintain a FIFO buffer of the last $N$ values (window length). All quantiles are computed on this buffer.
5. Map the resulting levels back to price space if residual mode is on (i.e., add back the baseline).
6. Smooth levels with a short EMA for readability.
Rolling quantiles.
Given the buffer $X_{t-N+1..t}$ and a percentile $q\in $, the indicator sorts a copy of the buffer ascending and linearly interpolates between adjacent ranks to estimate:
* Buy band $\approx Q(q)$
* Sell band $\approx Q(1-q)$
* Median $Q(0.5)$, plus optional deciles $Q(0.10)$ and $Q(0.90)$
Quantiles are robust to outliers relative to means. The estimator uses only data up to the current bar’s value in the buffer; there is no look-ahead.
Residual transform (optional).
In residual mode, quantiles are computed on $X^{res}_t = \text{price}_t - \text{baseline}_t$. This centers the distribution and often yields more stationary tails. After computing $Q(\cdot)$ on residuals, levels are transformed back to price space by adding the baseline. If `Baseline = None`, residual mode simply falls back to raw price.
Volatility-adaptive percentile.
Let $\text{ATR}_{14}(t)$ be current ATR and $\overline{\text{ATR}}_{100}(t)$ its long SMA. Define a volatility ratio $r = \text{ATR}_{14}/\overline{\text{ATR}}_{100}$. The effective quantile is:
Smoothing.
Each level is optionally smoothed by an EMA of length $k$ for cleaner visuals. This smoothing does not change the underlying quantile logic; it only stabilizes plots and signals.
Latched state machines.
Two three-step processes convert levels into “latched” signals that only fire after confirmation and then reset:
* BUY latch:
(1) HLC3 crosses above the median →
(2) the median is rising →
(3) HLC3 prints above the upper (orange) band → BUY latched.
* SELL latch:
(1) HLC3 crosses below the median →
(2) the median is falling →
(3) HLC3 prints below the lower (teal) band → SELL latched.
Labels are drawn on the latch bar, with a FIFO cap to limit clutter. Alerts are available for both the simple band interactions and the latched events. Use “Once per bar close” to avoid intrabar churn.
MTF behavior and repainting.
MTF sourcing uses `lookahead_off`. Quantiles and baselines are computed from completed data only; however, any *intrabar* cross conditions naturally stabilize at close. As with all real-time indicators, values can update during a live bar; prefer bar-close alerts for reliability.
Complexity and parameters.
Each bar sorts a copy of the $N$-length window (practical $N$ values keep this inexpensive). Typical choices: $N=50$–$100$, $q_0=0.15$–$0.25$, $k=2$–$5$, baseline length $L=20$ (if used), adaptation strength $s=0.2$–$0.7$.
Part 2 — Practical Use for Discretionary/Active Traders
What the bands mean in practice.
The teal “buy” band marks the lower tail of the recent distribution; the orange “sell” band marks the upper tail. The median is your dynamic equilibrium. In residual mode, these tails are deviations around trend; in raw mode they are absolute price percentiles. When ATR adaptation is on, tails breathe with regime shifts.
Two core playbooks.
1. Mean-reversion around a stable median.
* Context: The median is flat or gently sloped; band width is relatively tight; instrument is ranging.
* Entry (long): Look for price to probe or close below the buy band and then reclaim it, especially after HLC3 recrosses the median and the median turns up.
* Stops: Place beyond the most recent swing low or $1.0–1.5\times$ ATR(14) below entry.
* Targets: First scale at the median; optional second scale near the opposite band. Trail with the median or an ATR stop.
* Symmetry: Mirror the rules for shorts near the sell band when the median is flat to down.
2. Continuation with latched confirmations.
* Context: A developing trend where you want fewer but cleaner signals.
* Entry (long): Take the latched BUY (3-step confirmation) on close, or on the next bar if you require bar-close validation.
* Invalidation: A close back below the median (or below the lower band in strong trends) negates momentum.
* Exits: Trail under the median for conservative exits or under the teal band for trend-following exits. Consider scaling at structure (prior swing highs) or at a fixed $R$ multiple.
Parameter guidance by timeframe.
* Scalping / LTF (1–5m): $N=30$–$60$, $q_0=0.20$, $k=2$–3, residual mode on, baseline EMA $L=20$, adaptation $s=0.5$–0.7 to handle micro-vol spikes. Expect more signals; rely on latched logic to filter noise.
* Intraday swing (15–60m): $N=60$–$100$, $q_0=0.15$–0.20, $k=3$–4. Residual mode helps but is optional if the instrument trends cleanly. $s=0.3$–0.6.
* Swing / HTF (4H–D): $N=80$–$150$, $q_0=0.10$–0.18, $k=3$–5. Consider `SMA` baseline for smoother residuals and moderate adaptation $s=0.2$–0.4.
Baseline choice.
Use EMA for responsiveness (fast trend shifts) and SMA for stability (smoother residuals). Turning residual mode on is advantageous when price exhibits persistent drift; turning it off is useful when you explicitly want absolute bands.
How to time entries.
Prefer bar-close validation for both band recaptures and latched signals. If you must act intrabar, accept that crosses can “un-cross” before close; compensate with tighter stops or reduced size.
Risk management.
Position size to a fixed fractional risk per trade (e.g., 0.5–1.0% of equity). Define invalidation using structure (swing points) plus ATR. Avoid chasing when distance to the opposite band is small; reward-to-risk degrades rapidly once you are deep inside the distribution.
Combos and filters.
* Pair with a higher-timeframe median slope as a regime filter (trade only in the direction of the HTF median).
* Use band width relative to ATR as a range/trend gauge: unusually narrow bands suggest compression (mean-reversion bias); expanding bands suggest breakout potential (favor latched continuation).
* Volume or session filters (e.g., avoid illiquid hours) can materially improve execution.
Alerts for discretion.
Enable “Cross above Buy Level” / “Cross below Sell Level” for early notices and “Latched BUY/SELL” for conviction entries. Set alerts to “Once per bar close” to avoid noise.
Common pitfalls.
Do not interpret band touches as automatic signals; context matters. A strong trend will often ride the far band (“band walking”) and punish counter-trend fades—use the median slope and latched logic to separate trend from range. Do not oversmooth levels; you will lag breaks. Do not set $q$ too small or too large; extremes reduce statistical meaning and practical distance for stops.
A concise checklist.
1. Is the median flat (range) or sloped (trend)?
2. Is band width expanding or contracting vs ATR?
3. Are we near the tail level aligned with the intended trade?
4. For continuation: did the 3 steps for a latched signal complete?
5. Do stops and targets produce acceptable $R$ (≥1.5–2.0)?
6. Are you trading during liquid hours for the instrument?
Summary. ARQB provides statistically grounded, regime-aware bands and a disciplined, latched confirmation engine. Use the bands as objective context, the median as your equilibrium line, ATR adaptation to stay calibrated across regimes, and the latched logic to time higher-quality discretionary entries.

VWAP Price ChannelVWAP Price Channel cuts the crust off of a traditional price channel (Donchian Channel) by anchoring VWAPs at the highs and lows. By doing this, the flat levels, characteristic of traditional Donchian Channels, are no more!
Author's Note: This indicator is formed with no inherent use, and serves solely as a thought experiment.
> Concept
I would be hesitant to call this a "predictive" indicator, however the behavior of it would suggest it could be considered at least partially predictive
Essentially, the Anchored VWAPs creates something from otherwise nothing.
While the DC upper or lower values are staying flat, the VWAPs improvise based on price and volume to project a level that may be a better representation of where future highs or lows may settle.
Visually, this looks like we have cut off the corners of the Donchian Channel.
Note: Notice how we are calculating values before the corners are realized.
> Implementation
While this is only a concept indicator, The specific application I've gone with for this, is a sort of supertrend-ish display (A Trend Flipping Trailing Stop Loss).
The script uses basic logic to create a trend direction, and then displays the Anchored VWAPs as a form of trailing stop loss.
While "In Trend", the script fills in the area between the VWAP and Price in the direction of trend.
When new highs or lows are made while in trend, the opposite VWAP will start to generate at the new highs or lows. These happen on every new high or low, so they are not indicating the trend shift, but could be interpreted as breakout levels for the current trend direction in order for continuation.
Note: All values are drawn live, but when using higher timeframes, there is a natural calculation discrepancy when using live data vs. historical.
> Technicals
In this script, I'm simply detecting new highs or lows from the DC and using those as the anchor frequency on the built-in VWAP function.
So each time a new high or low is made based on DC, the VWAP function re-anchors to the high or low of the candle.
Past that, I have implemented some logic in order to account for a common occurrence I faced during development.
Frequently, the price would outpace the anchored VWAP, so we would end up with the VWAP being further from price than the actual DC upper or lower.
Due to this, what I have ended up with was a third value which, rather than switching between raw VWAP values and DC values, it adjusts the value based on the change in the VWAP value.
This can be simply thought of as a "Start + Change" type of setup.
By doing this, I can use the change values from the actual anchored VWAP, and under normal conditions, this will also be the true VWAP value.
However, situationally, I am able to update the start value which we're applying the VWAP change to.
In other words, when these situations happen, the VWAP change is added to the new (closer to price) DC value.
The specific trend logic being used is nothing fancy at all, we are simply checking if a new high or low is created and setting the trend in that direction.
This is in line with some traditional DC Strategies.
To those who made it here,
Just remember:
The chart may be ugly, but it's the fastest analysis of the data you can get.
Nicer displays often come at the hidden cost of latency.
You have to shoot your shot to make it.

Market Cap Landscape 3DHello, traders and creators! 👋
Market Cap Landscape 3D. This project is more than just a typical technical analysis tool; it's an exploration into what's possible when code meets artistry on the financial charts. It's a demonstration of how we can transcend flat, two-dimensional lines and step into a vibrant, three-dimensional world of data.
This project continues a journey that began with a previous 3D experiment, the T-Virus Sentiment, which you can explore here:
The Market Cap Landscape 3D builds on that foundation, visualizing market data—particularly crypto market caps—as a dynamic 3D mountain range. The entire landscape is procedurally generated and rendered in real-time using the powerful drawing capabilities of polyline.new() and line.new() , pushed to their creative limits.
This work is intended as a guide and a design example for all developers, born from the spirit of learning and a deep love for understanding the Pine Script™ language.
---
🧐 Core Concept: How It Works
The indicator synthesizes multiple layers of information into a single, cohesive 3D scene:
The Surface: The mountain range itself is a procedurally generated 3D mesh. Its peaks and valleys create a rich, textured landscape that serves as the canvas for our data.
Crypto Data Integration: The core feature is its ability to fetch market cap data for a list of cryptocurrencies you provide. It then sorts them in descending order and strategically places them onto the 3D surface.
The Summit: The highest point on the mountain is reserved for the asset with the #1 market cap in your list, visually represented by a flag and a custom emblem.
The Mountain Labels: The other assets are distributed across the mountainside, with their rank determining their general elevation. This creates an intuitive visual hierarchy.
The Leaderboard Pole: For clarity, a dedicated pole in the back-right corner provides a clean, ranked list of the symbols and their market caps, ensuring the data is always easy to read.

👨💻 Developer's Corner: Modifying the Core Logic
If you're a developer and wish to customize the indicator's core data source, this section is for you. The script is designed to be modular, making it easy to change what data is being ranked and visualized.
The heart of the data retrieval and ranking logic is within the f_getSortedCryptoData() function. Here’s how you can modify it:
1. Changing the Data Source (from Market Cap to something else):
The current logic uses request.security("CRYPTOCAP:" + syms.get(i), ...) to fetch market capitalization data. To change this, you need to modify this line.
Example: Ranking by RSI (14) on the Daily timeframe.
First, you'll need a function to calculate RSI. Add this function to the script:
f_getRSI(symbol, timeframe, length) =>
request.security(symbol, timeframe, ta.rsi(close, length))
Then, inside f_getSortedCryptoData() , find the `for` loop that populates the `caps` array and replace the `request.security` call:
// OLD LINE:
// caps.set(i, request.security("CRYPTOCAP:" + syms.get(i), timeframe.period, close))
// NEW LINE for RSI:
// Note: You'll need to decide how to format the symbol name (e.g., "BINANCE:" + syms.get(i) + "USDT")
caps.set(i, f_getRSI("BINANCE:" + syms.get(i) + "USDT", "D", 14))
2. Changing the Data Formatting:
The ranking values are formatted for display using the f_fmtCap() function, which currently formats large numbers into "M" (millions), "B" (billions), etc.
If you change the data source to something like RSI, you'll want to change the formatting. You can modify f_fmtCap() or create a new formatting function.
Example: Formatting for RSI.
// Modify f_fmtCap or create f_fmtRSI
f_fmtRSI(float v) =>
str.tostring(v, "#.##") // Simply format to two decimal places
Remember to update the calls to this function in the main drawing loop where the labels are created (e.g., str.format("{0}: {1}", crypto.symbol, f_fmtCap(crypto.cap)) ).
By modifying these key functions ( f_getSortedCryptoData and f_fmtCap ), you can adapt the Market Cap Landscape 3D to visualize and rank almost any dataset you can imagine, from technical indicators to fundamental data.

We hope you enjoy using the Market Cap Landscape 3D as much as we enjoyed creating it. Happy charting! ✨

This indicator detects institutional liquidity hunting patterns and automatically identifies structural levels, helping traders analyze market structure more effectively.
🎯 Core Features
1. Structural Level Identification
STL (Short Term Low): Recent support levels formed in the short term
STH (Short Term High): Recent resistance levels formed in the short term
ITL (Intermediate Term Low): Stronger support levels with more significance
ITH (Intermediate Term High): Stronger resistance levels with more significance
2. Kill Zone Time Display
London Kill Zone: 02:00-05:00 (default)
New York Kill Zone: 08:30-11:00 (default)
These are the most active trading hours for institutional players where significant price movements occur
3. Smart Sweep Detection
Bear Sweep (🔻): Pattern where price sweeps below lows then recovers - Simply indicates sweep occurrence
Bull Sweep (🔺): Pattern where price sweeps above highs then declines - Simply indicates sweep occurrence
Important: Sweep labels only mark liquidity hunting locations, not directional bias.
🔧 Configuration Parameters
Basic Settings
Sweep Detection Lookback: Number of candles for sweep detection (default: 20)
Structure Point Lookback: Number of candles for structural point detection (default: 10)
Sweep Threshold: Percentage threshold for sweep validation (default: 0.1%)
Time Settings
London Kill Zone: Active hours for London session
New York Kill Zone: Active hours for New York session
Visualization Settings
Customizable colors for each level type
Enable/disable alert notifications
📊 How to Use
1. Chart Setup
Most effective on 1-minute to 1-hour timeframes
Recommended for major currency pairs (EUR/USD, GBP/USD, etc.)
Also applicable to cryptocurrencies and indices
2. Signal Interpretation
🔻 Bear Sweep / 🔺 Bull Sweep Labels
Simply indicate liquidity hunting occurrence points
Not directional bias indicators
Reference for understanding overall context on HTF
🟢 Silver Bullet Long (Huge Green Triangle)
After Bear Sweep occurrence
Within Kill Zone timeframe
Current price positioned above swept level
→ Actual BUY entry signal
🔴 Silver Bullet Short (Huge Red Triangle)
After Bull Sweep occurrence
Within Kill Zone timeframe
Current price positioned below swept level
→ Actual SELL entry signal
3. Risk Management
Use swept levels as stop-loss reference points
Approach signals outside Kill Zone hours with caution
Recommended to use alongside other technical analysis tools
💡 Trading Strategies
Silver Bullet Strategy
Preparation Phase: Monitor charts 30 minutes before Kill Zone
Sweep Observation: Identify liquidity hunting points with 🔻🔺 labels (reference only)
Entry: Enter ONLY when huge triangle Silver Bullet signal appears within Kill Zone
Take Profit: Target opposite structural level or 1:2 reward ratio
Stop Loss: Beyond the swept level
Important: Small sweep labels are NOT trading signals!
Multi-Timeframe Approach
Step 1: HTF (Higher Time Frame) Sweep Reference
Observe 🔻🔺 sweep labels on 4-hour and daily charts
Reference only sweeps occurring at major structural levels
HTF sweeps are used to identify liquidity hunting points
Reference only, not for directional bias
Step 2: Transition to LTF (Lower Time Frame)
Move to 15-minute, 5-minute, and 1-minute charts
Analyze LTF with reference to HTF sweep information
Use STL, STH, ITL, ITH for precise entry point identification
Structural levels on LTF are the core of actual trading decisions
Only huge triangle (Silver Bullet) signals are actual entry signals
Recommended Usage
Identify overall sweep occurrence points on HTF (🔻🔺 labels)
Use this indicator on LTF to identify structural levels
Reference only huge triangle signals for actual trading during Kill Zone
Small sweep labels (🔻🔺) are for reference only, not entry signals

Moving Average Adaptive RSI [BackQuant]Moving Average Adaptive RSI
What this is
A momentum oscillator that reshapes classic RSI into a zero-centered column plot and makes it adaptive. It builds RSI from two parts:
• A sensitivity window that scans several recent bars to capture the strongest up and down impulses.
• A selectable moving average that smooths those impulses before computing RSI.
The output ranges roughly from −100 to +100 with 0 as the midline, with optional extra smoothing and built-in divergence detection.
How it works
Impulse extraction
• For each bar the script inspects the last rsi_sen bars and collects upward and downward price changes versus the current price.
• It keeps the maximum upward change and maximum downward change from that window, emphasizing true bursts over single-bar noise.
MA-based averaging
• The up and down impulse series are averaged with your chosen MA over rsi_len bars.
• Supported MA types: SMA, EMA, DEMA, WMA, HMA, SMMA (RMA), TEMA.
Zero-centered RSI transform
• RS = UpMA ÷ DownMA, then mapped to a symmetric scale: 100 − 200 ÷ (1 + RS) .
• Above 0 implies positive momentum bias. Below 0 implies negative momentum bias.
Optional extra smoothing
• A second smoothing pass can be applied to the final oscillator using smoothing_len and smooth_type . Toggle with “Use Extra Smoothing”.
Visual encoding
• The oscillator is drawn as columns around the zero line with a gradient that intensifies toward extremes.
• Static bands mark 80 to 100 and −80 to −100 for extreme conditions.
Key inputs and what they change
• Price Source : input series for momentum.
• Calculation Period (rsi_len) : primary averaging window on up and down components. Higher = smoother, slower.
• Sensitivity (rsi_sen) : how many recent bars are scanned to find max impulses. Higher = more responsive to bursts.
• Calculation Type (ma_type) : MA family that shapes the core behavior. HMA or DEMA is faster, SMA or SMMA is slower.
• Smoothing Type and Length : optional second pass to calm noise on the final output.
• UI toggles : show or hide the oscillator, candle painting, and extreme bands.
Reading the oscillator
• Midline cross up (0) : momentum bias turning positive.
• Midline cross down (0) : momentum bias turning negative.
• Positive territory :
– 0 to 40: constructive but not stretched.
– 40 to 80: strong momentum, continuation more likely.
– Above 80: extreme risk of mean reversion grows.
• Negative territory : mirror the same levels for the downside.
Divergence detection
The script plots four divergence types using pivot highs and lows on both price and the oscillator. Lookbacks are set by lbL and lbR .
• Regular bullish : price lower low, oscillator higher low. Possible downside exhaustion.
• Hidden bullish : price higher low, oscillator lower low. Bias to trend continuation up.
• Regular bearish : price higher high, oscillator lower high. Possible upside exhaustion.
• Hidden bearish : price lower high, oscillator higher high. Bias to trend continuation down.
Labels: ℝ for regular, ℍ for hidden. Green for bullish, red for bearish.
Candle coloring
• Optional bar painting: green when the oscillator is above 0, red when below 0. This is for visual scanning only.
Strengths
• Adaptive sensitivity via a rolling impulse window that responds to genuine bursts.
• Configurable MA core so you can match responsiveness to the instrument.
• Zero-centered scale for simple regime reads with 0 as a clear bias line.
• Built-in regular and hidden divergence mapping.
• Flexible across symbols and timeframes once tuned.
Limitations and cautions
• Trends can remain extended. Treat extremes as context rather than automatic reversal signals.
• Divergence quality depends on pivot lookbacks. Short lookbacks give more signals with more noise. Long lookbacks reduce noise but add lag.
• Double smoothing can delay zero-line transitions. Balance smoothness and timeliness.
Practical usage ideas
• Regime filter : only take long setups from your separate method when the oscillator is above 0, shorts when below 0.
• Pullback confirmation : in uptrends, look for dips that hold above 0 or turn up from 0 to 40. Reverse for downtrends.
• Divergence as a heads-up : wait for a zero-line cross or a price trigger before acting on divergence.
• Sensitivity tuning : start with rsi_sen 2 to 5 on faster timeframes, increase slightly on slower charts.
Alerts
• MA-A RSI Long : oscillator crosses above 0.
• MA-A RSI Short : oscillator crosses below 0.
Use these as bias or timing aids, not standalone trade commands.
Settings quick reference
• Calculation : Price Source, Calculation Type, Calculation Period, Sensitivity.
• Smoothing : Smoothing Type, Smoothing Length, Use Extra Smoothing.
• UI : Show Oscillator, Paint Candles, Show Static High and Low Levels.
• Divergences : Pivot Lookback Left and Right, Div Signal Length, Show Detected Divergences.
Final thoughts
This tool reframes RSI by extracting strong short-term impulses and averaging them with a moving-average model of your choice, then presenting a zero-centered output for clear regime reads. Pair it with your structure, risk and execution process, and tune sensitivity and smoothing to the market you trade.

Advance Trading SystemThis Price Action + Volume based indicator combines Multi‑Timeframe swing structure, volume ranking, liquidity zones and auto long/short signal generation to create an “Advance Trading System” that displays OB (order block‑like) levels, dashboard and entry/exit labels on the chart.
What this indicator does
Looks at recent candles on different timeframes to determine if the trend is more “bullish” or “bearish” (considers it bullish if at least 2 out of 3 timeframes agree).
Picks up the recent swing points where the price can reverse and plots green/red lines on them (called “Buy OB”/“Sell OB” here).
Shows when volume has increased, whether the bar is an inside-bar or not, and a small dashboard in the top-right that shows the trend, reversal levels, volume and LTF/HTF signals.
What are the buttons/settings
Swing Strength: Based on how many bars the recent swing high/low will be confirmed; if the number increases, the signal will come late but with more confidence.
Volume Avg Period: How many bars the volume should be averaged from; this checks “whether the volume is strong or not”.
Show HH/HL/LH/LL Labels: Switch to show/hide swing labels by writing them on the chart.
Show Dashboard: Small panel on/off in the top-right.
Signal Mode: Auto, Long Only, Short Only or Both—that is, whether to follow the auto-trend or see only buy/sell.
LTF/HTF: Choose lower and higher timeframes; also 15m/30m/1h/4h are scanned in the background to understand the recent direction.
How to identify trends and swings
Candle patterns: Simple rule—if the latest candle is biased (e.g. a strong bull/bear or a particularly long wick candle), then the signal for that TF is 1 (bull) or -1 (bear); otherwise 0.
Three TFs: Lower, Mid (which is the chart TF), and Higher—the non-zero signal is considered the “last known direction”; then the number of the three is counted as bull/bear.
Swing high/low: The most recent “solid” high/low on the chart is considered the highest/lowest within a few bars to the left or right; this indicates whether the new high is above (HH) or below (LH) the old one, and whether the new low is above (HL) or below (LL).
What are the green/red lines
If the trend is bullish (at least 2 out of 3 TFs are bullish), a green line is drawn near the previous confirmed low—here it is called Buy OB; the idea is that if the price comes near this zone, a bounce is expected.
On a bearish trend, a red line is drawn near the previous confirmed high—Sell OB—which means if the price comes near that zone, a drop is expected.
Volume colors and inside-bars
color of each bar is determined by the volume ranking: orange/yellow for low volume, varying shades of blue for high volume; if an inside-bar is formed (both high/low inside the previous bar) the bar is darkened to draw attention.
Simple estimation of liquidity zone
When the recent swing high is formed, the total volume is looked at in the surrounding few bars (eg: 3-3 bars before/after) and the upper/lower edge is noted where the maximum concentration is - this is considered as the liquidity zone.
The same is done for the high TF as well and the average of both is taken to form an MTF zone to get a big-picture picture.
What the dashboard shows
Trend (Multi‑TF): HL/HH indicates bullish trend, LH/LL indicates bearish trend; color green/red.
Reversal Level: Level where the recent reversal was confirmed (high/low of the last confirmed swing).
Volume vs Prev: Volume higher/lower/equal to the previous bar.
Volume: Raw number, color green/red depending on whether Price is buy or sell.
LTF/HTF: Last received signal as BUY/SELL.
How entry/exit signals are formed
Basic conditions:
Mood bias: at least 2 TFs in the same direction.
Volume strength: current volume is well above average and higher than the previous bar—i.e. there is real juice.
Near zone: price is in a small band around the green/red line (e.g. within about -2% to +1% for Buy).
Long Entry : all three conditions above are met on the previous close of the bar in the buy direction; Short Entry is the opposite. Exit rule is also placed on the previous bar of the opposite signal, so that everything is on a “confirmed close” and false shocks are minimized.
Labels: once the signal is confirmed, the labels “LONG ENTRY”, “LONG EXIT”, “SHORT ENTRY”, “SHORT EXIT” are applied to the chart on the previous bar itself, with a small ATR-based gap for clear reading.
How Auto/Manual modes work
Auto (TF Based): The system will decide whether to look at Long Only, Short Only, or Both—depending on the Multi‑TF trend.
Long Only/Short Only: Only signals from that side will be generated; Both will generate both.
What to look for in the limits
Swing confirmation takes time, as you have to wait for a few bars to the right—so the signal is more reliable with a slight delay.
The term “OB” is used here for a simple level; this is not pro-level order-block detection (such as with FVG/break-off-structure), but it works well with this system.
Volume ranking is simple; ties are possible at equal volume, which can reduce precision in color-coding.
How to use
First check the trend from the dashboard: focus on the buy zone if HL/HH, sell zone if LH/LL.
Then check if there is a volume spike; without volume confirmation it is better to skip signals.
When the price is right near the green/red line, only work with a confirmed signal on the previous close bar, avoid rushing in between.
This can be made more robust if desired by adding true order‑block, FVG, and additional confirmations (such as RSI/MACD/Structure Break); but the base idea is to combine multi‑timeframe trend + swing levels + volume strength + zone close to produce simple, Tradeable and confirmed signals.

Liquidity Sweep Breakout - LSBLiquidity Sweep Breakout - LSB
A professional session-based breakout system designed for OANDA:USDJPY and other JPY pairs.
Not guesswork, but precision - built on detailed observation of institutional moves to capture clear trade direction daily.
Master the Market’s Daily Bank Flow.
---
Strategy Detail:
I discovered this strategy after carefully studying how Japanese banks influence the forex market during their daily settlement period. Banks are some of the biggest players in the financial world, and when they adjust or settle their accounts in the morning, it often creates a push in the market. From years of observation, I noticed a consistent pattern, once banks finish their settlements, the market usually continues moving in the same direction that was formed right after those actions. This daily banking flow often sets the tone for the entire trading session, especially for JPY pairs like USDJPY.
To capture this move, I built the indicator so that it follows the bank-driven trend with clear rules for entries, stop-loss (SL), and take-profit (TP). The system is designed with professional risk management in mind. By default, it assumes a $10,000 account size, risks only 1% of that balance per trade, and targets a 1:1.5 reward-to-risk ratio. This means for every $100 risked, the potential profit is $150. Such controlled risk makes the system safer and more sustainable for long-term traders. At the same time, users are not limited to this setup, they can adjust the account balance in the settings, and the indicator will automatically recalculate the lot size and risk levels based on their own capital. This ensures the strategy works for small accounts and larger accounts alike.
🌍 Why It Works
Fundamentally driven: Based on **daily Japanese banking settlement flows**.
Session-specific precision: Targets the exact window when USDJPY liquidity reshapes.
Risk-managed: Always calculates lot size based on account and risk preferences.
Automatable: With webhook + MT5 EA, it can be fully hands-free.
---
✅ Recommended
Pair: USDJPY (best observed behavior).
Timeframe: 3-Minute chart.
Platform: TradingView Premium (for webhooks).
Execution: MT5 via EA.
---
🔎 Strategy Concept
The Tokyo Magic Breakout (TMB) is built on years of session observation and the unique daily rhythm of the Japanese banking system.
Every morning between 5:50 AM – 6:10 AM PKT (09:50 – 10:10 JST), Japanese banks perform daily reconciliation and settlement. This often sets the tone for the USDJPY direction of the day.
This strategy isolates that critical moment of liquidity adjustment and waits for a clean breakout confirmation. Instead of chasing noise, it executes only when price action is aligned with the Tokyo market’s hidden flows.
---
🕒 Timing Logic
Session Start: 5:00 AM PKT (Tokyo market open range).
Magic Candle: The 5:54 AM PKT candle is marked as the reference “breakout selector.”
Checkpoints: First confirmation at 6:30 AM PKT, then every 15 minutes until 8:30 AM PKT.
* If price stays inside the magic range → wait.
* If a breakout happens but the candle wick touches the range → wait for the next checkpoint.
* If by 8:30 AM PKT no clean breakout occurs → the day is marked as No Trade Day (NTD).
👉 Recommended timeframe: 3-Minute chart (3M) for precise signals.
---
📈 Trade Execution
Entry: Clean break above/below the magic candle’s range.
Stop-Loss: Opposite side of the Tokyo session high/low.
Take-Profit: Calculated by Reward\:Risk ratio (default 1.5:1).
Lot Size: Auto-calculated based on your risk model:
* Fixed Dollar
* % of Equity
* Conservative (minimum of both).
Visuals include:
✅ Entry/SL/TP lines
✅ Shaded risk (red) and reward (green) zones
✅ Trade labels (Buy/Sell with lot size & levels)
✅ TP/SL hit markers

S&R ZonesThis indicator automatically detects swing highs and swing lows on the chart using a 3-bar swing structure. Once a swing point is confirmed, it evaluates the price movement and body size of subsequent candles. If the movement meets a volume-based range condition (2.5× the average body size of the last 5 candles), the indicator creates a zone around that swing.
Swing High Zones: Drawn from the highest price of the swing cluster down to its midpoint.
Swing Low Zones: Drawn from the lowest price of the swing cluster up to its midpoint.
These zones act as dynamic support and resistance levels and remain on the chart until they are either:
Broken (price closes beyond the zone), or
Expired (more than 200 bars old).
Zones are color-coded for clarity:
🔴 Red shaded areas = Swing High resistance zones.
🟢 Green shaded areas = Swing Low support zones.
This makes the indicator useful for identifying high-probability reversal areas, liquidity zones, and supply/demand imbalances that persist until invalidated.
Volume Profile + VAH, VAL, and POCWhat it is
A clean, on-chart volume profile that approximates your visible range using a configurable Bars Back window. It builds a horizontal histogram of volume by price, splits each price bin into Buy vs Sell volume, draws POC, and computes Value Area High/Low (VAH/VAL). A Stealth Mode toggle switches to a subtle grayscale palette for low-key charts.
Why this instead of the built-in VPVR?
Buy/Sell split per bin: See which prices were defended by buyers vs sellers, not just total volume.
Value Area from POC outward: Classic expansion method until the selected % of total volume (default 70%).
Sleek borders & Stealth Mode: Crisp bin outlines and a one-click professional colorway.
Deterministic & fast: No sessions or anchors needed—set your Bars Back and go.
How it works (under the hood)
Window selection – Pine can’t read your viewport, so we approximate it with Bars Back (user input).
Binning – The window’s price range is divided into N bins.
Volume allocation – For each bar in the window:
Distribute Across Hi–Lo (optional): Spread volume across all bins the bar overlaps, weighted by overlap; or
Single-price mode: Assign all volume to one bin using a representative price (hlc3).
Buy/Sell split (two methods):
Body Proportional (recommended): Split by relative up/down body size (|close−open|).
Up/Down Candle: 100% buy if close ≥ open, else 100% sell.
POC & VA: Point of Control is the bin with max total volume. VAH/VAL expands from POC toward the higher-volume neighbor until the selected % of total volume is included.
Reading the visuals
Horizontal bars (right side): Total volume per price bin.
Left sub-segment = Sell volume
Right sub-segment = Buy volume
POC line: Price level with peak total volume.
VAH / VAL (dashed): Upper and lower bounds of the selected Value Area.
Borders: Each bin has a clean outer outline so the profile looks tight and organized.
Stealth Mode: Grayscale palette that preserves contrast without loud colors.
Key inputs (organized for clarity)
Theme
Stealth Mode: Toggles the grayscale look.
Core
Price Bins: Vertical resolution of the profile.
Lookback (Bars): Approximates your visible range.
Style
Profile Width (bars): How far the histogram extends to the right.
Bin Border Width: Outline thickness.
Markers & Lines
Show POC, Show VAH/VAL, Value Area %, VA line width.
Advanced
Distribute Volume Across Hi–Lo: More accurate, heavier compute.
Buy/Sell Split Method: Body Proportional (realistic) or Up/Down (simple).
Tips & best practices
Start with Body Proportional + Distribute Across ON for intraday accuracy.
If the chart lags, reduce Price Bins or Bars Back, or switch off distribution.
For small windows, fewer bins often looks cleaner (e.g., 30–60).
Stealth Mode plays nicely with both dark and light chart themes.
Limitations & notes
Viewport: Pine can’t access the actual visible bars; Bars Back is a practical stand-in.
Buy/Sell split: This is an approximation from candle bodies, not true bid/ask delta.
Designed for overlay; profile renders to the right of the latest bar.

SMC - Institutional Confidence Oscillator [PhenLabs]📊 Institutional Confidence Oscillator
Version: PineScript™v6
📌 Description
The Institutional Confidence Oscillator (ICO) revolutionizes market analysis by automatically detecting and evaluating institutional activity at key support and resistance levels using our own in-house detection system. This sophisticated indicator combines volume analysis, volatility measurements, and mathematical confidence algorithms to provide real-time readings of institutional sentiment and zone strength.
Using our advanced thin liquidity detection, the ICO identifies high-volume, narrow-range bars that signal institutional zone formation, then tracks how these zones perform under market pressure. The result is a dual-wave confidence oscillator that shows traders when institutions are actively defending price levels versus when they’re abandoning positions.
The indicator transforms complex institutional behavior patterns into clear, actionable confidence percentiles, helping traders align with smart money movements and avoid common retail trading pitfalls.
