Liquidity Pro Map [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
Liquidity Pro Map is a market-structure tool that simulates liquidity distribution by splitting price history into buy-side and sell-side profiles. Using candle volume and the standard deviation of close, the indicator builds two mirrored volume maps on the right-hand side of the chart. It also extends liquidity levels backwards in time until they are crossed by price, allowing you to see which zones remain untouched and where liquidity is most likely resting. Cumulative skew lines and highlighted POC levels give additional clarity on imbalance between buyers and sellers.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Dual Liquidity Profiles: The chart is divided into buy-side (green) and sell-side (red) liquidity profiles, letting you instantly compare both sides of order flow.
Level Extension Logic: Each liquidity level is extended back in time until price crosses it. If not crossed, it persists all the way to the indicator’s lookback period, marking zones that remain “untapped.”
Dynamic Binning with Standard Deviation: The indicator distributes candle volumes into bins using close-price deviation, creating a more realistic liquidity map than static price levels.
priceDeviation = ta.stdev(close, 25) * 2
priceReference = close > open ? low - priceDeviation : high + priceDeviation
Cumulative Volume Skew Lines: Polylines on the right-hand side show the aggregated buy and sell volume profiles, making it easy to spot imbalance.
POC Identification: Highest-volume levels on both sides are marked as POC (Point of Control) , providing key zones of interest.
Clear Color Coding: Gradient shading intensifies with volume concentration—dark teal/green for buy zones, dark pink/red for sell zones.
⯁ HOW IT WORKS (UNDER THE HOOD)
Volume Distribution: Each bar’s volume is assigned to a price bin based on its reference price (close ± standard deviation offset).
Buy vs. Sell Splitting: If bins above last close price, volume is allocated to sell-side liquidity; otherwise, it’s allocated to buy-side liquidity.
Level Extension: Boxes marking liquidity bins extend back until crossed by price. If uncrossed, they anchor all the way to the start of the lookback window.
Cumulative Polylines: As bins are stacked, cumulative buy and sell values form skew polylines plotted at the right edge.
POC Levels: The highest-volume bin on each side is highlighted with labels and arrows, marking where the heaviest liquidity is concentrated.
⯁ USAGE
Use buy/sell profiles to see where liquidity is likely resting. Green shelves suggest potential support zones; red shelves suggest resistance or sell liquidity pools.
Watch untouched extended levels —these often become magnets for price as liquidity is swept.
Track POC levels as primary liquidity targets, where reactions or fakeouts are most common.
Compare cumulative skew lines to judge which side dominates in volume. Heavy buy skew may indicate absorption of sell pressure, and vice versa.
Adjust lookback period to switch between intraday liquidity maps and larger swing-based profiles.
Use separator feature to hide bins borders for better visual clarity.
Use as a confluence tool with OBs, support/resistance, and liquidity sweep setups.
⯁ CONCLUSION
Liquidity Pro Map transforms candle volume into a structured simulation of where liquidity may rest across the chart. By dividing buy vs. sell profiles, extending untouched levels, and marking cumulative skew and POC, it equips traders with a clear visual map of potential liquidity pools. This allows for better anticipation of sweeps, reversals, and areas of high market activity.

TPO Levels [VAH/POC/VAL] with Poor H/L, Single Prints & NPOCs### 🎯 Advanced Market Profile & Key Level Analysis
This script is a unique and comprehensive technical analysis tool designed to help traders understand market structure, value, and key liquidity levels using the principles of **Auction Market Theory** and **Market Profile**.
This script is unique (and shouldn't be censored) because :
It allows large history of levels to be displayed
Accurate as possible tick size
Doesn't draw a profile but only the actual levels
Supports multi-timeframe levels even on the daily mode giving macro context
There is no indicator out there that does it
While these concepts are universal, this indicator was built primarily for the dynamic, 24/7 nature of the **cryptocurrency market**. It helps you move beyond simple price action to understand *why* the market is moving, which is especially crucial in the volatile crypto space.
### ## 📊 The Concepts Behind the Calculations
To use this script effectively, it's important to understand the core concepts it is built upon. The entire script is self-contained and does not require other indicators.
* **What is Market Profile?**
Market Profile is a unique charting technique that organizes price and time data to reveal market structure. It's built from **Time Price Opportunities (TPOs)**, which are 30-minute periods of market activity. By stacking these TPOs, the script builds a distribution, showing which price levels were most accepted (heavily traded) and which were rejected (lightly traded) during a session.
* **What is the Value Area (VA)?**
The Value Area is the heart of the profile. It represents the price range where **70%** of the session's trading volume occurred. This is considered the "fair value" zone where both buyers and sellers were in general agreement.
* **Point of Control (POC):** The single price level with the most TPOs. This was the most accepted or "fairest" price of the session and acts as a gravitational line for price.
* **Value Area High (VAH):** The upper boundary of the 70% value zone.
* **Value Area Low (VAL):** The lower boundary of the 70% value zone.
VAH and VAL are dynamic support and resistance levels. Trading outside the previous session's value area can signal the start of a new trend.
***
### ## 📈 Key Features Explained
This script automatically calculates and displays the following critical market-generated information:
* **Multi-Timeframe Market Profile**
Automatically draws Daily, Weekly, and Monthly profiles, allowing you to analyze market structure across different time horizons. The script preserves up to 20 historical sessions to provide deep market context.
* **Naked Point of Control (nPOC)**
A "Naked" POC is a Point of Control from a previous session that has **not** been revisited by price. These levels often act as powerful magnets for price, representing areas of unfinished business that the market may seek to retest. The script tracks and displays Daily, Weekly, and Monthly nPOCs until they are touched.
* **Single Prints (Imbalance Zones)**
A Single Print is a price level where only one TPO traded during the session's development. This signifies a rapid, aggressive price move and an imbalanced market. These areas, like gaps in a traditional chart, are frequently revisited as the market seeks to "fill in" these thin parts of the profile.
* **Poor Structure (Unfinished Auctions)**
A **Poor High** or **Poor Low** occurs when the top or bottom of a profile is flat, with two or more TPOs at the extreme price. This suggests that the auction in that direction was weak and inconclusive. These weak structures often signal a high probability that price will eventually break that high or low.
***
### ## 💡 How to Use This Indicator
This tool is not a signal generator but an analytical framework to improve your trading decisions.
1. **Determine Market Context:** Start by asking: Is the current price trading *inside* or *outside* the previous session's Value Area?
* **Inside VA:** The market is in a state of balance or range-bound. Look for trades between the VAH and VAL.
* **Outside VA:** The market is in a state of imbalance and may be starting a trend. Look for continuation or acceptance of prices outside the prior value.
2. **Identify Key Levels:**
* Use historical **nPOCs** as potential profit targets or areas to watch for a price reaction.
* Treat historical **VAH** and **VAL** levels as significant support and resistance zones.
* Note where **Single Prints** are. These are often price magnets that may get "filled" in the future.
3. **Spot Weakness:**
* A **Poor High** suggests weak resistance that may be easily broken.
* A **Poor Low** suggests weak support, signaling a potential for a continued move lower if broken.
***
### ## ⚙️ Customization & Crypto Presets
The indicator is highly customizable, allowing you to change colors, transparency, the number of historical sessions, and more.
To help traders get started quickly, the indicator includes **built-in layout presets** specifically calibrated for major cryptocurrencies: ** BINANCE:BTCUSDT.P , BINANCE:ETHUSDT.P , and BINANCE:SOLUSDT.P **. These presets automatically adjust key visual parameters to better suit the unique price characteristics and volatility of each asset, providing an optimized view right out of the box.

### ## ⚠️ Disclaimer
This indicator is a tool for market analysis and should not be interpreted as direct buy or sell signals. It provides information based on historical price action, which does not guarantee future results. Trading involves significant risk, and you should always use proper risk management. This script is designed for use on standard chart types (e.g., Candlesticks, Bar) and may produce misleading information on non-standard charts.
Wyckoff Smart Money Pro [MTF]Wyckoff Smart Money Pro detects trading ranges, phases, and events from the Wyckoff method and confirms them with VSA (Volume Spread Analysis), divergence checks, and a composite “smart money” strength index. It generates optional buy/sell signals only when multiple conditions align (phase, VSA, CO strength, effort vs. result, time/volume filters). The dashboard, POC/Value Area, and MTF backdrop help you manage context and risk in real time.
What this indicator does
Wyckoff Smart Money Pro is a multi-timeframe Wyckoff tool that:
⦁ Finds accumulation/distribution ranges and tracks Phases A–E.
⦁ Labels Wyckoff events (PS, SC, AR, ST, Spring/Test, SOS, LPS, UTAD, SOW, LPSY, TS…) and VSA patterns (No Demand/Supply, Stopping Volume, Upthrust, etc.).
⦁ Computes a Composite Operator (CO) Strength score from price/volume behavior to approximate “smart money” bias.
⦁ Adds divergence, effort vs. result, and a volume profile (POC & 70% value area) inside the detected range.
⦁ Provides buy/sell signals only when a configurable confluence is present (events + VSA + CO + EVR + phase + filters).
⦁ Supports MTF context (with a safe HTF resolver and fallbacks) and an Info Dashboard to summarize the current state.
It is designed to make the Wyckoff workflow visual and rules-based without promising results or automating decisions.
How it works (methods & calculations)
1) Range & Phase model
⦁ A sliding lookback searches for a valid range (recent highest high/lowest low), requiring width within 2–10× ATR(14) and a minimum bar count inside the bounds.
⦁ Once a range is active, the script derives Creek/Ice/Mid/Quartiles and classifies bars into Wyckoff Phases A–E using event recency (barssince) and where price sits relative to the range.
⦁ The background color reflects the current Phase; optional MTF events (from the chosen HTF) tint the background lightly for higher-timeframe context.
2) Wyckoff & VSA event engine
⦁ Events include PS, SC, AR, ST, Spring, Test, SOS, LPS, PSY, BC, UTAD, SOW, LPSY, TS, plus minor/multiple variants and Creek/Ice jumps.
⦁ VSA patterns detect No Demand/No Supply, Stopping Volume, Buying/Selling Climax, Upthrust/Pseudo Upthrust, Bag Holding, Shake-Out, Volume Dry-Up, etc., from spread vs. average spread and volume vs. average volume with tunable thresholds.
3) Smart-money (CO) Strength
⦁ CO Strength (0–100) blends: relative volume on up/down bars, professional accumulation/distribution, no-supply/no-demand, stopping volume, Springs/UTADs and Tests, SOS/SOW, price’s position inside the range, and volume-delta vs. its MA.
⦁ Persistent accumCount / distCount counters smooth temporary noise.
4) Divergence & Effort-vs-Result
⦁ Price vs. cum volume-delta divergence highlights weakening pushes.
⦁ EVR flags “High effort / no result” and potential Bullish/Bearish reversals, or “Low effort / high result” moves that are often unsustainable.
5) Volume Profile (inside range)
⦁ A 50-bin profile accumulates volume across the detected range to derive POC, VAH/VAL (70% value area). Lines update as the active range evolves.
6) Multi-Timeframe (MTF) safety
⦁ getHTF() converts your multiplier to a valid Pine timeframe string (e.g., 60, 240, 2D, 1W), and the script falls back to current timeframe values if an HTF request returns na.
⦁ If you enter a Custom HTF, it must be strictly higher than the chart’s timeframe (validated at runtime).
7) Signals & risk model
⦁ Signals are not tied to any single pattern. A buy may require Spring/Test/Shake-out/Creek Jump or SOS plus confirmation (VSA, CO>60, Phase C/D, divergence/EVR context).
⦁ Sell is symmetrical (UTAD/Failed Spring/SOW/Ice Jump + VSA + CO<40 + Phase C/D).
⦁ Minimum confidence is configurable; SL/TP and R:R lines are drawn from range edges or recent bar extremes.
⦁ Filters: trading hours, weekend avoidance, and a minimum volume threshold (relative to average) are available to suppress low-quality contexts.
⦁ Alerts include all major events, divergences, structure/phase changes, and the gated Buy/Sell signals (with a cooldown to reduce alert spam).
Inputs (key ones you’ll actually use)
⦁ Display Settings: toggle ranges, phases, events, VSA, signals, dashboard.
⦁ MTF: Enable HTF, set Multiplier or a Custom HTF (must be higher than current).
⦁ Range Detection: period / min bars / pivot strength.
⦁ VSA: volume sensitivity & climax multiplier.
⦁ Signal Settings: minimum confidence, risk/reward labels.
⦁ Advanced Filters: trading hours, weekend avoidance, and Min Volume Filter (× avg).
⦁ Colors: phase backgrounds, structure colors, and line styling.
How to use (practical flow)
1. Choose a symbol & timeframe you normally analyze (e.g., 5–60m for entries, 4H/D for context).
2. If using MTF, pick a multiplier (e.g., 5×) or a Custom HTF (e.g., 240/4H).
3. Wait for a range to form; watch Phase and CO Strength on the Dashboard.
4. When events (e.g., Spring/Test in Phase C or UTAD in distribution) appear with favorable VSA, CO, EVR, and volume/time filters, consider the signal and review R:R lines.
5. Use POC/VA and Creek/Ice/Mid as structure references; manage risk around the range edge that generated the setup.

Notes, limits & best practices
⦁ This is not a buy/sell system; it’s a context & confirmation tool. Combine with your plan, risk limits, and execution criteria.
⦁ Long, illiquid, or news-driven bars can distort volume/spread logic; filters help but cannot eliminate this.
⦁ For MTF, if an exchange doesn’t support a specific HTF, the script falls back safely to current TF values to avoid na-propagation.
⦁ Dashboard rows/size/position are user-configurable to keep charts uncluttered.
Changelog (what’s new in this version)
⦁ MTF safety & validation (Custom HTF must be above current; graceful fallbacks for request.security() na results).
⦁ Performance caching for close position & up/down bar flags; drawing cleanup to stay under label/line limits.
⦁ Volume Profile upgraded to 50 bins; VA algorithm adjusted accordingly.
⦁ Signal gating with time/day/volume filters and alert cooldown to reduce noise.
⦁ Bug guards for parameter conflicts (e.g., rangeMinBars cannot exceed rangePeriod).

FlowScope [Hapharmonic]FlowScope: Uncover the Market's True Intent 🔬
Ever wished you could look inside the candles and see where the real action is happening? FlowScope is your microscope for the market's flow, designed to give you a powerful edge by revealing the volume distribution that price action alone can't show you.
Instead of just looking at the open, high, low, and close, FlowScope lets you dive deeper into the market's auction process. It groups candles together and builds a detailed Volume Profile for that period, showing you exactly where the trading happened and revealing the story behind the price action.
Let's explore how you can use it to gain a powerful new edge.
🧐 Core Concept: How It Works
At its heart, FlowScope does three key things:
It Groups Candles: You decide how many candles to group together. For example, setting " Group Candles " to 4 on a 5-minute chart effectively gives you a detailed 20-minute candle and profile. This helps you see the bigger picture and filter out market noise.
It Builds a Volume Profile: For each group, FlowScope analyzes the volume at every single price level. It then displays this as a horizontal histogram (we call this a "footprint" or profile). Longer bars mean more volume was traded at that price, indicating a "fair" price or an area of acceptance. Shorter bars mean price moved through quickly, indicating rejection.
It Creates a Custom "Grouped Candle": To summarize the group's overall price action, FlowScope draws a single, custom candle representing the entire group's:
Open: The open of the first candle in the group.
High: The absolute highest price reached within the group.
Low: The absolute lowest price reached within the group.
Close: The close of the last candle in the group.
This gives you a crystal-clear view of the group's net result, free from the back-and-forth noise of the individual candles inside it.
Below are some of the stunning preset color palettes you can choose from to customize your view:
🚀 How to Use: Practical Applications
FlowScope isn't just for looking pretty; it's a powerful analysis tool. Here are a few ways to integrate it into your trading:
Identify High-Volume Nodes (HVNs): Look for the longest bars in the profile. These are price levels where the market spent the most time and traded the most volume. HVNs often act as powerful "magnets" for price, becoming key areas of support and resistance.
Spot Low-Volume Nodes (LVNs): These are areas with very short bars or gaps in the profile. They represent price levels that the market moved through quickly and inefficiently. If price returns to an LVN, it's likely to move through it quickly again.
Analyze the Summary Box: This is where the real magic happens! ✨
Total Volume (Σ): The total volume for the entire group.
Buy (B) vs. Sell (S) Volume: FlowScope analyzes the lower timeframe action to estimate the buying and selling pressure that made up the total volume. Is a big red candle mostly aggressive selling, or was it just a lack of buyers? The B/S data gives you clues. A high-volume candle with nearly 50/50 buy/sell pressure might indicate absorption or a potential reversal.
Use the Grouped Candle for Clarity: Is the market in a clear uptrend, or is it just choppy? The grouped candle can give you a much clearer signal. A series of strong, green grouped candles shows much more conviction than a mix of small green and red candles.
⚙️ Settings & Customization
This is where you can truly make FlowScope your own. Let's walk through each setting.
Profile Settings
Group Candles: The number of standard chart candles you want to combine into a single FlowScope profile. A setting of 1 will analyze every single bar. A higher number gives you a broader market view. When Group Candles is set to 5, the data from the 5 individual candles are combined, and the volume is calculated accordingly.
Max Profile Boxes: This setting is more than just a number; it's a smart limit that ensures your profiles are always readable and relevant to the current market conditions.
Adaptive Sizing (The Ideal Goal): FlowScope first tries to create the perfect profile by making each volume box's height proportional to the current market volatility. It calculates an "ideal" box height based on the Average True Range ( ATR / 10 ). This is powerful because it automatically adapts: you get smaller, more detailed boxes in quiet, low-volatility markets, and larger, clearer boxes in volatile, fast-moving markets.
The Safety Cap (Your Setting): However, what if you group several candles during a massive price move? The price range could be huge! If we only used the small, ATR-based box height, you might end up with hundreds of tiny, unreadable boxes. This is where your Max Profile Boxes setting (defaulting to 50) comes in. It acts as a maximum detail cap . If the adaptive, volatility-based calculation determines that it would need more boxes than your setting (e.g., more than 50), the indicator will override it. It will then simply divide the entire price range of the group into exactly the number of boxes you specified (e.g., 50).
In short: You are setting the maximum allowable detail. FlowScope intelligently adapts the profile's granularity below that limit based on market volatility, ensuring you always get a clear and meaningful picture.
Style
Show Profile BG: A simple toggle to show or hide the faint background color behind the volume bars. Turning it off can create a cleaner look.
Color Mode: This dropdown controls how the volume profile text is colored.
Custom Gradient: This mode uses the three custom colors you select in the "Profile Colors" section to create a beautiful gradient across the profile.
Candle Color: This mode colors the profile based on whether the grouped candle was bullish (green) or bearish (red). The color will be a gradient, with the most intense color applied to the box with the highest volume; the colors of the other boxes will fade out from that point. It's a great way to see the profile's "mood" at a glance.
Profile Colors 🎨
Use Preset Palette: This is the master switch!
If checked: You can choose from 10 stunning, pre-designed color palettes from the Palette dropdown. The custom color pickers below will be disabled.
If unchecked (Default): The Palette dropdown will be disabled, and you can now choose your own three colors for the gradient.
Palette: (Only active when "Use Preset Palette" is checked) . Choose from 10 luxurious, eye-catching color schemes like "Solar Flare" or "Deep Space" to instantly change the look and feel of your chart.
Low Price / Mid Price / High Price: (Only active when "Use Preset Palette" is unchecked) . These three color pickers allow you to design your own unique gradient for the Custom Gradient color mode.
Candle Display
These settings control the custom "Grouped Candle" that summarizes the profile. When using the "Show Custom Candle" feature, you should change the chart's candlestick display to Bars for a cleaner view.
Show Custom Candle: This is the main toggle. When you check this box, the original chart candles will be hidden, and your custom FlowScope candle will be displayed instead. This custom candle is intentionally small to ensure it does not visually overlap with the volume profile boxes.
Show Body: (Only active when "Show Custom Candle" is checked) . Toggles the visibility of the candle's body.
Wick Width & Body Width: (Only active when "Show Custom Candle" is checked) . These sliders let you control the thickness of the wick and body lines to match your personal style.
Up Color / Down Color: (Only active when "Show Custom Candle" is checked) . Choose the colors for your bullish and bearish custom candles.
Experiment with the settings, find a style that works for you, and start seeing the market in a whole new light.
Happy trading! 📈😊

Yelober - Market Internal direction+ Key levelsYelober – Market Internals + Key Levels is a focused intraday trading tool that helps you spot high-probability price direction by anchoring decisions to structure that matters: yesterday’s RTH High/Low, today’s pre-market High/Low, and a fast Value Area/POC from the prior session. Paired with a compact market internals dashboard (NYSE/NASDAQ UVOL vs. DVOL ratios, VOLD slopes, TICK/TICKQ momentum, and optional VIX trend), it gives you a real-time read on breadth so you can choose which direction to trade, when to enter (breaks, retests, or fades at PMH/PML/VAH/VAL/POC), and how to plan exits as internals confirm or deteriorate. On top of these intraday decision benefits, it also allows traders—in a very subtle but powerful way—to keep an eye on the VIX and immediately recognize significant spikes or sharp decreases that should be factored in before entering a trade, or used as a quick signal to modify an existing position. In short: clear levels for the chart, live internals for the context, and a smarter, rules-based path to execution.

* **NASDAQ ratio** = UVOLQ/DVOLQ (signed) with **VOLDQ slope** from session open
* **TICK** and **TICKQ**: live cumulative ratio and short‑term slope
* **VIX** (optional): current value + slope over a configurable lookback/timeframe
* Color‑coded trends with sensible thresholds and optional normalization
---
## 2) How to use it (trader workflow)
1. **Mark your reaction zones**
* Watch **yHoD/yLoD**, **PMH/PML**, and **VAH/VAL/POC** for first touches, break/retest, and failure tests.
* Expect increased responsiveness when multiple levels cluster (e.g., PMH ≈ VAH ≈ daily pivot).
2. **Read the breadth panel for context**
* **NYSE/NASDAQ ratio** (>1 = more up‑volume than down‑volume; <−1 = down‑dominant). Strong green across both favors long setups; red favors short setups.
* **VOLD slopes** (NYSE & NASDAQ): positive and accelerating → broadening participation; negative → persistent pressure.
* **TICK/TICKQ**: cumulative ratio and **slope arrows** (↗ / ↘ / →). Use the slope to gauge **near‑term thrust or fade**.
* **VIX slope**: rising VIX (red) often coincides with risk‑off; falling VIX (green) with risk‑on.
3. **Confluence = higher confidence**
* Example: Price reclaims **PMH** while **NYSE/NASDAQ ratios** print green and **TICK slopes** point ↗ — consider break‑and‑go; if VIX slope is ↘, that adds risk‑on confidence.
* Example: Price rejects **VAH** while **VOLD slopes** roll negative and VIX ↗ — consider fade/reversal.
4. **Risk management**
* Place stops just beyond key levels tested; if breadth flips, tighten or exit.
> **Timeframes:** Works best on 1–15m charts for intraday. Value Area is computed from **yesterday’s RTH**; choose a smaller calculation timeframe (e.g., 5–15m) for stable profiles.
---
## 3) Inputs & settings (what each option controls)
### Global Style
* **Enable all automatic price levels**: master toggle for yHoD/yLoD, yEHH/yEHL, PMH/PML, VAH/VAL/POC.
* **Line style/width**: applies to all drawn levels.
* **Label size/style** and **label color linking**: use the same color as the line or override with a global label color.
* **Maximum bars lookback**: how far the script scans to build yesterday metrics (performance‑sensitive).
### Value Area / Volume Profile
* **Enable Value Area calculations** *(on by default)*: computes yesterday’s **POC**, **VAH**, **VAL** from a simplified intraday volume profile built from yesterday’s **regular session bars**.
* **Max Volume Profile Points** *(default 50)*: lower values = faster; higher = more precise.
* **Value Area Calculation Timeframe** *(default 15)*: the security timeframe used when collecting yesterday’s highs/lows/volumes.
### Individual Level Toggles & Colors
* **yHoD / yLoD** (yesterday high/low)
* **yEHH / yEHL** (yesterday AH + today pre‑market extremes)
* **PMH / PML** (today pre‑market extremes)
* **VAH / VAL / POC** (yesterday RTH value area + point of control)
### Market Breadth Panel
* **Show NYSE / NASDAQ / VIX**: choose which series to display in the table.
* **Table Position / Size / Background Color**: UI placement and legibility.
* **Slope Averaging Periods** *(default 5)*: number of recent TICK/TICKQ ratio points used in slope calculation.
* **Candles for Rate** *(default 10)* & **Normalize Rate**: VIX slope calculation as % change between `now` and `n` candles ago; normalize divides by `n`.
* **VIX Timeframe**: optionally compute VIX on a higher TF (e.g., 15, 30, 60) for a smoother regime read.
* **Volume Normalization** (NYSE & NASDAQ): display VOLD slopes scaled to `tens/thousands/millions/10th millions` for readable magnitudes; color thresholds adapt to your choice.
---
## 4) Data sources & definitions
* **UVOL/VOLD (NYSE)** and **UVOLQ/DVOLQ/VOLDQ (NASDAQ)** via `request.security()`
* **Ratio** = `UVOL/DVOL` (signed; negative when down‑volume dominates)
* **VOLD slope** ≈ `(VOLD_now − VOLD_open) / bars_since_open`, then normalized per your setting
* **TICK/TICKQ**: cumulative sum of prints this session with **positives vs negatives ratio**, plus a simple linear regression **slope** of the last `N` ratio values
* **VIX**: value and slope across a user‑selected timeframe and lookback
* **Sessions (EST/EDT)**
* **Regular:** 09:30–16:00
* **Pre‑Market:** 04:00–09:30
* **After Hours:** 16:00–20:00
* **Extended‑hours extremes** combine **yesterday AH** + **today PM**
> **Note:** All session checks are done with TradingView’s `time(…,"America/New_York")` context. If your broker’s RTH differs (e.g., futures), adjust expectations accordingly.
---
## 5) How the algorithms work (plain English)
### A) Key Levels
* **Yesterday’s RTH High/Low**: scans yesterday’s bars within 09:30–16:00 and records the extremes + bar indices.
* **Extended Hours**: scans yesterday AH and today PM to get **yEHH/yEHL**. Script shows **either yEHH or PMH** (whichever is **higher**) and **either yEHL or PML** (whichever is **lower**) to avoid duplicate bands stacked together.
* **Value Area & POC (RTH only)**
* Build a coarse volume profile with `Max Volume Profile Points` buckets across the price range formed by yesterday’s RTH bars.
* Distribute each bar’s volume uniformly across the buckets it spans (fast approximation to keep Pine within execution limits).
* **POC** = bucket with max volume. **VA** expands from POC outward until **70%** of cumulative volume is enclosed → yields **VAH/VAL**.
### B) Market Breadth Table
* **NYSE/NASDAQ Ratio**: signed UVOL/DVOL with basic coloring.
* **VOLD Slopes**: from session open to current, normalized to human‑readable units; colors flip green/red based on thresholds that map to your normalization setting (e.g., ±2M for NYSE, ±3.5×10M for NASDAQ).
* **TICK/TICKQ Slope**: linear regression over the last `N` ratio points → **↗ / → / ↘** with the rounded slope value.
* **VIX Slope**: % change between now and `n` candles ago (optionally divided by `n`). Red when rising beyond threshold; green when falling.
---
## 6) Recommended presets
* **Stocks (liquid, intraday)**
* Value Area **ON**, `Max Volume Points` = **40–60**, **Timeframe** = **5–15**
* Breadth: show **NYSE & NASDAQ & VIX**, `Slope periods` = **5–8**, `Candles for rate` = **10–20**, **Normalize VIX** = **ON**
* **Index futures / very high‑volume symbols**
* If you see Pine timeouts, set `Max Volume Points` = **20–40** or temporarily **disable Value Area**.
* Keep breadth panel **ON** (it’s light). Consider **VIX timeframe = 15/30** for regime clarity.
---
## 7) Tips, edge cases & performance
* **Performance:** The volume profile is capped (`maxBarsToProcess ≤ 500` and bucketed) to keep it responsive. If you experience slowdowns, reduce `Max Volume Points`, `Maximum bars lookback`, or disable Value Area.
* **Redundant lines:** The script **intentionally suppresses** PMH/PML when yEHH/yEHL are more extreme, and vice‑versa.
* **Label visibility:** Use `Label style = none` if you only want clean lines and read values from the right‑end labels.
* **Futures/RTH differences:** Value Area is from **yesterday’s RTH** only; for 24h instruments the RTH period may not reflect overnight structure.
* **Session transitions:** PMH/PML tracking stops as soon as RTH starts; values persist as static levels for the session.
---
## 8) Known limitations
* Uses public TradingView symbols: `UVOL`, `VOLD`, `UVOLQ`, `DVOLQ`, `VOLDQ`, `TICK`, `TICKQ`, `VIX`. If your data plan or region limits any symbol, the corresponding table rows may show `na`.
* The VA/POC approximation assumes uniform distribution of each bar’s volume across its high–low. That’s fast but not a tick‑level profile.
* Works best on US equities with standard NY session; alternative sessions may need code changes.
---
## 9) Troubleshooting
* **“Script is too slow / timed out”** → Lower `Max Volume Points`, lower `Maximum bars lookback`, or toggle **OFF** `Enable Value Area calculations` for that instrument.
* **Missing breadth values** → Ensure the symbols above load on your account; try reloading chart or switching timeframes once.
* **Overlapping labels** → Set `Label style = none` or reduce label size.

Advanced Volume Profile Pro Delta + POC + VAH/VAL# Advanced Volume Profile Pro - Delta + POC + VAH/VAL Analysis System
## WHAT THIS SCRIPT DOES
This script creates a comprehensive volume profile analysis system that combines traditional volume-at-price distribution with delta volume calculations, Point of Control (POC) identification, and Value Area (VAH/VAL) analysis. Unlike standard volume indicators that show only total volume over time, this script analyzes volume distribution across price levels and estimates buying vs selling pressure using multiple calculation methods to provide deeper market structure insights.
## WHY THIS COMBINATION IS ORIGINAL AND USEFUL
**The Problem Solved:** Traditional volume indicators show when volume occurs but not where price finds acceptance or rejection. Standalone volume profiles lack directional bias information, while basic delta calculations don't provide structural context. Traders need to understand both volume distribution AND directional sentiment at key price levels.
**The Solution:** This script implements an integrated approach that:
- Maps volume distribution across price levels using configurable row density
- Estimates delta (buying vs selling pressure) using three different methodologies
- Identifies Point of Control (highest volume price level) for key support/resistance
- Calculates Value Area boundaries where 70% of volume traded
- Provides real-time alerts for key level interactions and volume imbalances
**Unique Features:**
1. **Developing POC Visualization**: Real-time tracking of Point of Control migration throughout the session via blue dotted trail, revealing institutional accumulation/distribution patterns before they complete
2. **Multi-Method Delta Calculation**: Price Action-based, Bid/Ask estimation, and Cumulative methods for different market conditions
3. **Adaptive Timeframe System**: Auto-adjusts calculation parameters based on chart timeframe for optimal performance
4. **Flexible Profile Types**: N Bars Back (precise control), Days Back (calendar-based), and Session-based analysis modes
5. **Advanced Imbalance Detection**: Identifies and highlights significant buying/selling imbalances with configurable thresholds
6. **Comprehensive Alert System**: Monitors POC touches, Value Area entry/exit, and major volume imbalances
## HOW THE SCRIPT WORKS TECHNICALLY
### Core Volume Profile Methodology:
**1. Price Level Distribution:**
- Divides price range into user-defined rows (10-50 configurable)
- Calculates row height: `(Highest Price - Lowest Price) / Number of Rows`
- Distributes each bar's volume across price levels it touched proportionally
**2. Delta Volume Calculation Methods:**
**Price Action Method:**
```
Price Range = High - Low
Buy Pressure = (Close - Low) / Price Range
Sell Pressure = (High - Close) / Price Range
Buy Volume = Total Volume × Buy Pressure
Sell Volume = Total Volume × Sell Pressure
Delta = Buy Volume - Sell Volume
```
**Bid/Ask Estimation Method:**
```
Average Price = (High + Low + Close) / 3
Buy Volume = Close > Average ? Volume × 0.6 : Volume × 0.4
Sell Volume = Total Volume - Buy Volume
```
**Cumulative Method:**
```
Buy Volume = Close > Open ? Volume : Volume × 0.3
Sell Volume = Close ≤ Open ? Volume : Volume × 0.3
```
**3. Point of Control (POC) Identification:**
- Scans all price levels to find maximum volume concentration
- POC represents the price level with highest trading activity
- Acts as significant support/resistance level
- **Developing POC Feature**: Tracks POC evolution in real-time via blue dotted trail, showing how institutional interest migrates throughout the session. Upward POC migration indicates accumulation patterns, downward migration suggests distribution, providing early trend signals before price confirmation.
**4. Value Area Calculation:**
- Starts from POC and expands up/down to encompass 70% of total volume
- VAH (Value Area High): Upper boundary of value area
- VAL (Value Area Low): Lower boundary of value area
- Expansion algorithm prioritizes direction with higher volume
**5. Adaptive Range Selection:**
Based on profile type and timeframe optimization:
- **N Bars Back**: Fixed lookback period with performance optimization (20-500 bars)
- **Days Back**: Calendar-based analysis with automatic timeframe adjustment (1-365 days)
- **Session**: Current trading session or custom session times
### Performance Optimization Features:
- **Sampling Algorithm**: Reduces calculation load on large datasets while maintaining accuracy
- **Memory Management**: Clears previous drawings to prevent performance degradation
- **Safety Constraints**: Prevents excessive memory usage with configurable limits
## HOW TO USE THIS SCRIPT
### Initial Setup:
1. **Profile Configuration**: Select profile type based on trading style:
- N Bars Back: Precise control over data range
- Days Back: Intuitive calendar-based analysis
- Session: Real-time session development
2. **Row Density**: Set number of rows (30 default) - more rows = higher resolution, slower performance
3. **Delta Method**: Choose calculation method based on market type:
- Price Action: Best for trending markets
- Bid/Ask Estimate: Good for ranging markets
- Cumulative: Smoothed approach for volatile markets
4. **Visual Settings**: Configure colors, position (left/right), and display options
### Reading the Profile:
**Volume Bars:**
- **Length**: Represents relative volume at that price level
- **Color**: Green = net buying pressure, Red = net selling pressure
- **Intensity**: Darker colors indicate volume imbalances above threshold
**Key Levels:**
- **POC (Blue Line)**: Highest volume price - major support/resistance
- **VAH (Purple Dashed)**: Value Area High - upper boundary of fair value
- **VAL (Orange Dashed)**: Value Area Low - lower boundary of fair value
- **Value Area Fill**: Shaded region showing main trading range
**Developing POC Trail:**
- **Blue Dotted Lines**: Show real-time POC evolution throughout the session
- **Migration Patterns**: Upward trail indicates bullish accumulation, downward trail suggests bearish distribution
- **Early Signals**: POC movement often precedes price movement, providing advance warning of institutional activity
- **Institutional Footprints**: Reveals where smart money concentrated volume before final POC establishment
### Trading Applications:
**Support/Resistance Analysis:**
- POC acts as magnetic price level - expect reactions
- VAH/VAL provide intermediate support/resistance levels
- Profile edges show areas of low volume acceptance
**Developing POC Analysis:**
- **Upward Migration**: POC moving higher = institutional accumulation, bullish bias
- **Downward Migration**: POC moving lower = institutional distribution, bearish bias
- **Stable POC**: Tight clustering = balanced market, range-bound conditions
- **Early Trend Detection**: POC direction change often precedes price breakouts
**Entry Strategies:**
- Buy at VAL with POC as target (in uptrends)
- Sell at VAH with POC as target (in downtrends)
- Breakout plays above/below profile extremes
**Volume Imbalance Trading:**
- Strong buying imbalance (>60% threshold) suggests continued upward pressure
- Strong selling imbalance suggests continued downward pressure
- Imbalances near key levels provide high-probability setups
**Multi-Timeframe Context:**
- Use higher timeframe profiles for major levels
- Lower timeframe profiles for precise entries
- Session profiles for intraday trading structure

Crypto Volume Data (VAH,POC,VAL)Crypto Volume Data (VAH, POC, VAL) — Multi-Exchange Aggregated Volume Zones
This indicator delivers a high-precision volume profile for crypto assets by aggregating real traded volume across Binance, Bybit, Coinbase, Kraken, OKX, and MEXC. It auto-detects multiple quote pairs (USD, USDT, USDC, FDUSD, USDT.P, USDC.P) and merges the live volume distribution respecting each exchange’s volume for that symbol to calculate institutional-grade VAH, POC, and VAL levels.
No matter which symbol or pair from which exchange is open on the chart, the script dynamically detects the base asset and fetches volume from all matching pairs on supported exchanges. For example, whether you load BTC/USDT, ETH/USDT.P, or SOL/FDUSD, the system identifies the symbol and aggregates volume from all relevant pairs of that symbol across all mentioned exchanges, weighting them based on real volume. This leads to significantly more accurate value areas — especially compared to single-source or single-pair profiles that miss fragmented liquidity and the real volume of each exchange.
This script is fully plug-and-play. There’s no need to select lookback windows or configure pairs — it's already optimized with pre-set internal parameters for common trading timeframes. (Still, you can adjust for your needs in the settings, but keep in mind more lookback is not necessarily a good thing — it might affect the accuracy of your output depending on the timeframe.)
Key Features:
Live aggregation of volume across 5 exchanges
Supports most listed altcoins with reliable quote pair coverage
Dynamic auto symbol/quote detection and normalization
Automatically adapts to any crypto chart without user setup
Real institutional zones — not synthetic, not heuristic
Why It Matters:
In fragmented crypto markets, liquidity isn’t centralized. Volume for a coin like ETH may be split between USDT on Binance, USD on Kraken, or USDC on MEXC. Most indicators ignore that. This tool doesn’t. It brings that volume together to provide the most contextually accurate VAH/POC/VAL levels possible, tailored to the charted asset and timeframe.
This isn't just another volume indicator. It’s built from the ground up to capture where the real trades happen — not just where price moved — and shows you the zones that institutions and large players respect.

Multi Ranges Volume Distribution [LuxAlgo]The Multi Ranges Volume Distribution tool allows traders to see the volume distribution by price for three different timeframes simultaneously. Each distribution can report the total amount of accumulated volume or the accumulated buy/sell volume separately.
Levels are displayed at the top and bottom of each timeframe's range, as well as the POC or level with the most volume.
🔶 USAGE
By default, the tool displays daily, weekly, and monthly volume distributions, highlighting the accumulated volume within each row.
Each distribution shows the volume at each price, as well as three lines: the top and bottom prices, and the price at which the most volume was traded.
The reported accumulated volume can be useful for highlighting which price areas are of the most interest to traders, with the specific timeframe specifying whether this interest is long-term or short-term.
🔹 Timeframes & Rows
Traders can adjust the timeframe and the number of rows for each volume distribution.
This is useful for multi-timeframe analysis of volume at the same price levels, or for obtaining detailed data within the same timeframe.
The chart above shows three volume distributions with the same monthly timeframe but a different number of rows; each is more detailed than the previous one.
🔹 Total vs Buy & Sell Volume
Traders can choose to display either the total volume or the buy and sell volumes.
As we can see on the above chart, the background of each row uses a gradient that is a function of the delta between the buy and sell volumes.
This is useful to determine which areas attract buyers and sellers.
🔶 SETTINGS
Volume Display: Select between total volume and buy and sell volume.
Distance between each box: Adjust the spacing of the volume distributions.
Period A: Select a timeframe and the number of rows.
Period B: Select a timeframe and the number of rows.
Period C: Select a timeframe and the number of rows.
Volume Profile (PRO) [ActiveQuants]The Volume Profile (PRO) indicator is an advanced analytical tool designed to provide traders with a deep understanding of market dynamics by displaying trading activity across different price levels over a specified period. By meticulously plotting volume distribution , this indicator helps identify significant price zones, such as areas of high acceptance ( High Volume Nodes - HVNs ), rejection ( Low Volume Nodes - LVNs ), Volume Peaks Clusters , Volume Troughs Clusters , the Point of Control (POC) , and the Value Area (VA) . This insight is crucial for spotting potential support/resistance levels, assessing market sentiment, and making more informed trading decisions.
This indicator operates on the principle that price levels with higher traded volume hold greater significance, often acting as pivotal points for future price movements. Conversely, areas with low volume typically indicate less agreement on price, leading to quicker price transitions. The Volume Profile (PRO) offers extensive customization to tailor the analysis to your specific needs and trading style.
█ KEY FEATURES
Comprehensive Volume Analysis: Visualize volume distribution horizontally, revealing key price levels based on actual traded volume.
Dynamic Profile Calculation: Uses a rolling lookback period to keep the profile relevant to recent price action.
Point of Control (POC): Automatically identifies and plots the price level with the highest traded volume within the profile period. Available as a "Regular" (fixed for the current profile) or "Developing" line that tracks its evolution bar-by-bar.
Value Area (VA): Highlights the price range where a specified percentage (typically 70%) of the total volume was traded. Also available as "Regular" or "Developing" VAH (Value Area High) and VAL (Value Area Low) lines.
High and Low Volume Nodes (HVNs & LVNs): Option to automatically detect and highlight a specified number of the highest volume concentration zones (HVNs) and lowest volume zones (LVNs) within the profile. These are crucial for identifying support/resistance and areas of potential quick price movement.
Volume Peaks and Troughs Detection: Identify statistically significant high-volume (Peaks) and low-volume (Troughs) rows relative to their neighbors, either as single rows or clusters. These can pinpoint precise levels of interest.
Multiple Volume Display Types: Choose to display volume as:
- Up/Down: Shows buying and selling volume side-by-side for each row.
- Total: Shows the aggregate volume for each row.
- Delta: Shows the difference between buying and selling volume for each row, highlighting imbalances.
Extensive Customization: Fine-tune lookback period, number of rows, profile width, horizontal placement, Value Area percentage, colors for all elements, and specific parameters for node/peak/trough detection.
Visual Enhancements:
- Optional gradient colors for volume bars.
- Display volume figures directly on rows.
- Background shading for the Value Area and the entire Profile range.
- Price labels for POC, VAH, VAL, Profile High, and Profile Low.

█ STRATEGY EXAMPLES
The following examples are for illustrative purposes only to demonstrate how the Volume Profile (PRO) can be used. They are not financial advice. Always conduct thorough backtesting and research.
1. POC as Dynamic Support/Resistance
Goal: Identify potential bounces or rejections from the Point of Control.
Setup: Enable "POC Line" (Regular or Developing) and observe price interaction.
Entry (Long):
- Price approaches the POC from above and shows signs of holding (e.g., bullish candlestick patterns, deceleration).
- Enter on confirmation of support at the POC.
Entry (Short):
- Price approaches the POC from below and shows signs of rejection (e.g., bearish candlestick patterns).
- Enter on confirmation of resistance at the POC.
Management: Stop-loss beyond the recent swing pivot or the POC itself after a confirmed break. Target the next significant volume node (HVN/LVN) or Value Area boundary.
2. Trading Low Volume Nodes (LVNs) as "Vacuum Zones"
Goal: Capitalize on rapid price movement through LVNs and their potential to become support/resistance once traversed.
Setup: Enable "Lowest Volume Nodes" to identify LVNs.
Entry (Long):
- Price breaks decisively above an LVN.
- Look for a retest of the top of the LVN as support. Enter long on confirmation.
Entry (Short):
- Price breaks decisively below an LVN.
- Look for a retest of the bottom of the LVN as resistance. Enter short on confirmation.
Concept: Price is expected to move quickly through LVNs (volume vacuum). Once price has passed through an LVN, that area of prior low acceptance can act as a new support/resistance zone.
Management: Stop-loss beyond the retested LVN. Target the next HVN or significant price level.
█ CONCLUSION
The Volume Profile (PRO) indicator offers a sophisticated and highly customizable approach to volume analysis. By providing clear visualizations of POC, Value Area, HVNs, LVNs, and Volume Peaks/Troughs, along with integrated alerts and developing levels, this tool empowers traders to identify critical price zones, understand market structure, and develop more nuanced trading strategies. Whether you're looking for precise entry points, areas of support and resistance, or confirmation of market sentiment, this Volume Profile indicator is an invaluable addition to your technical analysis toolkit.
█ IMPORTANT NOTES
⚠ Lookback vs. Calculated Bars Relationship: The value set in the " Lookback " input ( Calculation Settings ) must be less than half of the number of bars the indicator is set to calculate on your chart (referred to as " Calculated bars " in the script, typically controlled by TradingView's historical data loading or a calc_bars_count setting within the script's indicator() declaration – in this script, it is 1200 bars by default). For example, if "Calculated bars" is 1200, your Lookback should be less than 600. The default Lookback of 500 respects this. Setting a Lookback too high relative to available calculated bars can lead to errors or incorrect profile rendering.
⚠ Parameter Optimization: The default settings are starting points. Always adjust indicator parameters (Lookback, Number of Rows, VA%, etc.) based on the specific asset, its volatility, and the timeframe you are trading. Thorough backtesting is crucial.
⚠ Context is Key: Volume Profile is powerful, but its signals are best interpreted within the broader market context (trend, news, other technical indicators).
⚠ Lookback vs. Profile Stability: A shorter lookback makes the profile very responsive to recent action but less stable. A longer lookback provides more stable levels but may lag in fast-moving markets.
⚠ Number of Rows: Higher row counts offer more granularity but can impact performance and may show too much noise. Lower row counts offer a broader view but may obscure finer details.
⚠ Alert Confirmation: Using " Once Per Bar Close " for alerts is generally recommended to ensure signals are based on confirmed price action.
█ RISK DISCLAIMER
Trading involves a substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. The Volume Profile (PRO) indicator is provided for educational and informational purposes only . It does NOT constitute financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any asset. Indicator signals identify potential patterns based on historical data but do not guarantee future price movements or profitability. Always conduct your own thorough research, utilize multiple sources of information, and implement robust risk management practices before making any trading decisions.

Delta Volume Profile [BigBeluga]🔵Delta Volume Profile
A dynamic volume analysis tool that builds two separate horizontal profiles: one for bullish candles and one for bearish candles. This indicator helps traders identify the true balance of buying vs. selling volume across price levels, highlighting points of control (POCs), delta dominance, and hidden volume clusters with remarkable precision.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Split Volume Profiles (Bull vs. Bear):
The indicator separates volume based on candle direction:
If close > open , the candle’s volume is added to the bullish profile (positive volume).
If close < open , it contributes to the bearish profile (negative volume).
ATR-Based Binning:
The price range over the selected lookback is split into bins using ATR(200) as the bin height.
Each bin accumulates both bull and bear volumes to form the dual-sided profile.
Bull and Bear Volume Bars:
Bullish volumes are shown as right-facing bars on the right side, colored with a bullish gradient.
Bearish volumes appear as left-facing bars on the left side, shaded with a bearish gradient.
Each bar includes a volume label (e.g., +12.45K or -9.33K) to show exact volume at that price level.
Points of Control (POC) Highlighting:
The bin with the highest bullish volume is marked with a border in POC+ color (default: blue).
The bin with the highest bearish volume is marked with a POC− color (default: orange).
Total Volume Density Map:
A neutral gray background box is plotted behind candles showing the total volume (bull + bear) per bin.
This reveals high-interest price zones regardless of direction.
Delta and Total Volume Summary:
A Delta label appears at the top, showing net % difference between bull and bear volume.
A Total label at the bottom shows total accumulated volume across all bins.
🔵 HOW IT WORKS
The indicator captures all candles within the lookback period .
It calculates the price range and splits it into bins using ATR for adaptive resolution.
For each candle:
If price intersects a bin and close > open , volume is added to the positive profile .
If close < open , volume is added to the negative profile .
The result is two side-by-side histograms at each price level—one for buyers, one for sellers.
The bin with the highest value on each side is visually emphasized using POC highlight colors.
At the end, the script calculates:
Delta: Total % difference between bull and bear volumes.
Total: Sum of all volumes in the lookback window.
🔵 USAGE
Volume Imbalance Zones: Identify price levels where buyers or sellers were clearly dominant.
Fade or Follow Volume Clusters: Use POC+ or POC− levels for reaction trades or breakouts.
Delta Strength Filtering: Strong delta values (> ±20%) suggest momentum or exhaustion setups.
Volume-Based Anchoring: Use profile levels to mark hidden support/resistance and execution zones.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Delta Volume Profile offers a unique advantage in market reading by separating buyer and seller activity into two visual layers. This allows traders to not only spot where volume was high, but also who was more aggressive. Whether you’re analyzing trend continuations, reversals, or absorption levels, this indicator gives you the transparency needed to trade with confidence.
Multi-Layer Volume Profile [BigBeluga]A powerful multi-resolution volume analysis tool that stacks multiple profiles of historical trading activity to reveal true market structure.
This indicator breaks down total and delta volume distribution across time at four adjustable depths — enabling traders to spot major POCs, volume shelves, and zones of price acceptance or rejection with unmatched clarity.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Multi-Layer Volume Profiles:
Up to 4 separate volume profiles are stacked on the chart:
- Profile 1: Full period
- Profile 2: Half-length
- Profile 3: Quarter-length
- Profile 4: One-eighth-length
This layering helps traders assess confluence across different time horizons.
Custom Bin Resolution:
Each profile uses a customizable number of bins to control visual precision.
More bins = higher granularity, fewer bins = smoother profile.
Precise POC Highlighting:
The price level with the maximum traded volume in each profile is highlighted with a thick blue POC line.
This key level shows the most accepted price for each period.
Total and Delta Volume Labels:
- Total Volume: Displays cumulative volume over the profile period at the top of the profile box.
- Delta Volume: The difference between bullish and bearish volume is labeled at the base, showing directional pressure.
Positive delta = buyer dominance, negative delta = seller dominance.
Range Levels:
Each profile includes horizontal reference lines showing its high, low, bounds.
These edges often align with price reaction zones and become future resistance/support.
🔵 HOW IT WORKS
For each active profile, the indicator:
- Collects price range (highs/lows) across the selected `length`
- Divides this range into equal bins
- Assigns volume into bins based on candle close location
- Aggregates volume per bin to form the profile (polylines)
Separately tracks:
- Total volume (sum of all candles in range)
- Delta volume (sum of candle volumes: positive for bullish, negative for bearish closes)
Highlights the bin with maximum volume (POC)
and marks it with a thick blue line.
Adds auxiliary lines for high/low of each profile box
and total/delta volume tags with tooltips.
🔵 USAGE
Spot Acceptance Zones:
Thick, flat areas on the profile show where price stayed longest — ideal for building positions.
Identify Rejection Zones:
Thin volume areas signal price rejection and are often used for stop placement or entries.
Delta Confirmation:
Use strong positive/negative delta readings as directional bias confirmation for breakout trades.
Confluence Detection:
Watch for overlapping POCs between layers to identify extremely strong support/resistance zones.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Multi-Layer Volume Profile equips traders with a deeply layered market structure view.
Whether you're scalping intraday levels or analyzing macro support zones, the ability to stack volume perspectives, visualize directional delta, and anchor POCs provides an edge in anticipating market moves.
Use this tool to validate entries, confirm structure, and make more informed, volume-aware trading decisions.
ZenAlgo - AvengerThe ZenAlgo - Avenger indicator provides a multi-layered view of market behavior by combining volume delta analytics, trend-following EMAs, average price comparison, and price-volume profiling into a unified overlay. It is designed to visually assist traders in identifying areas of interest, momentum shifts, and potential reversals using cumulative data from both spot and perpetual markets.
Volume Delta Calculation
This indicator computes delta as the difference between estimated buy and sell volumes using volume data from multiple centralized exchanges. It distinguishes between spot and perpetual volumes, combining them into total volume.
To estimate buying and selling volume from raw volume data, candle structure is broken down into body and wicks. The body is interpreted as the core directional movement (buy/sell), while the wicks are treated as uncertain or counteraction. This segmentation helps infer the likely share of buying and selling within each bar.
The delta is calculated per bar and then aggregated over a lookback period (default 14 bars) to generate a cumulative delta. This approach provides a smoothed value of volume pressure trends over time.
A moving average is applied to the delta values (using selectable MA types like EMA or SMA) to define signal crossovers and suppress noise.
Delta Visualization
To contextualize delta within price action, the delta is scaled dynamically (by ATR or user-defined value) and plotted as a band around the closing price. Positive delta expands upward from price, negative delta downward. This provides a visual overlay that reflects net market pressure in context with price movement.
In cases of extreme delta (threshold set at 80% of recent maximum), the indicator marks spike bars using symbols to indicate significant directional pressure.
Identification of Noteworthy Conditions
The indicator highlights points on the chart where specific conditions are met based on the interaction between volume delta and its moving average. These conditions may align with moments of market pressure imbalance and directional movement, but they are not to be interpreted as trade signals in isolation.
Instead, these chart markers serve as visual flags for potential interest. They are intended to draw the user’s attention to scenarios where:
The delta crosses above or below its moving average, suggesting a potential shift in volume pressure.
The cumulative delta supports the direction of this crossover.
Optional filters can further restrict these markings to periods where:
The short-term trend (as inferred from EMA slope) supports the direction.
Volume is elevated relative to a recent average.
A user-defined cooldown period prevents multiple markings within short succession to avoid clutter.
It is essential to underscore that these markers do not constitute buy or sell advice . Their role is diagnostic , helping the trader to identify potential moments of interest which should be analyzed in conjunction with broader context, such as trend structure, price action, support/resistance levels, or external market data.
EMA Structure
Six EMAs with fixed lengths (13 to 56) are plotted and colored dynamically based on the most recent crossover between the fastest and slowest (EMA1 and EMA6). These EMAs help visualize short- to mid-term trends. The crossover itself is marked with symbols, with vertical offset based on ATR to maintain chart readability.
Average Line (AVG)
The indicator also calculates an average price based on a fixed window (100 bars). This is not a standard moving average but rather a raw average of recent prices stored in a circular buffer. The average is plotted, and its relative distance to the current price is labeled as a percentage. This feature serves as a simplified representation of fair value or mean reversion anchor.
EMA6 vs AVG Cross
Another layer of point of interest detection involves EMA6 crossing the AVG line. This crossover is only considered valid if EMA6 shows slope consistency in the crossing direction. These events are marked using symbols and offset vertically to avoid overlapping price action.
Divergence Detection
The script detects both regular and hidden divergences between price and delta:
Regular divergences are defined when price makes a higher high or lower low, while delta fails to confirm (makes a lower high or higher low).
Hidden divergences occur when price retraces (lower high or higher low), but delta moves against this retracement, indicating underlying strength or weakness.
Divergence points are labeled with "R" (regular) or "H" (hidden) and appear at local pivot highs or lows. The number of visible divergence labels can be limited for chart clarity.
POC and nPOC Calculations
The script includes a simplified volume profile implementation, calculating:
POC (Point of Control): the price level with the highest volume for the given period.
nPOC (non-tested POC): historical POCs that have not yet been revisited by price.
Price levels are bucketed into rows (user-defined), and volume per bucket is tracked to identify the POC. Upon a new period (e.g., day, week), a horizontal POC line is drawn. Once tested by price, the line’s appearance changes (color fades, label shrinks), helping users distinguish between untouched and touched levels.
Limits are enforced on the number of retained POCs and their maximum distance from current bars to optimize performance and chart readability.
Exchange Aggregation
Volume data is aggregated across major exchanges. This ensures that the delta calculation captures a broader market picture beyond a single venue, reducing exchange-specific noise.
How to Interpret Values
Delta Band: Wide bands indicate strong directional imbalance. Narrow bands suggest indecision or low volume.
EMA Crossover Symbols: Appear on directional shifts in moving averages. Multiple EMAs reinforcing the same slope typically indicate stronger trend.
AVG Line: Represents average price over recent history. Large deviations can indicate overextension or potential mean reversion.
Divergences: Regular ones may point to weakening momentum; hidden ones can suggest continuation despite corrective price action.
POC / nPOC: Key volume-based support/resistance levels. Untested nPOCs can act as magnets for price retests.
How to Best Use This Indicator
Use in conjunction with trend context (e.g., higher timeframe EMAs) to avoid counter-trend indications.
Treat delta spikes as caution zones—especially if they occur at known support/resistance.
Watch for divergences as early warning signs before price reverses.
Use POC/nPOC as target levels, especially if aligned with delta signals.
Apply volume and trend filters to reduce noise on shorter timeframes.
Added Value
Multi-exchange volume aggregation makes the delta calculation more robust.
Real-time cumulative delta overlaid directly on the price chart provides immediate context.
Points of interest on chart are conservative and filterable, intended to reduce false positives.
The combination of delta, trend-following EMAs, fair value line, and volume profile data is rarely found in one overlay script.
POC/nPOC visualization based on real traded volume helps identify high-interest zones for future price interaction.
Why Is It Worth Paying For
While free alternatives may provide partial insights (e.g., basic delta or single EMA crossovers), this indicator integrates multiple domains—delta, divergence, average price, trend overlays, and profile levels—into a coherent, optimized chart tool. The value lies not just in having these tools, but in how they are synchronized and visualized.
Furthermore, sourcing and synchronizing volume data from multiple exchanges for delta estimation is not straightforward in Pine Script and adds to the indicator's complexity and utility.
Disclaimers and Limitations
Delta estimation is based on candle structure and assumes wick/body distribution reflects buyer/seller activity, which may not always be precise.
Multi-exchange volume data relies on availability via TradingView’s request.security() function; if exchange data is missing or delayed, results may be incomplete.
Divergences do not guarantee reversals—should be used as part of a broader analysis framework.
On illiquid instruments or exotic pairs, the value of delta and volume-based analytics may be reduced due to unreliable volume.

Volume Footprint POC for Every CandleCalculating and plotting the Point of Control (POC) for every candle on a volume footprint chart can provide valuable insights for traders. Here are some interpretations and uses of this information:
1. Identify Key Price Levels
Highest Traded Volume: The POC represents the price level with the highest traded volume for each candle. This level often acts as a significant support or resistance level.
Confluence Zones: When multiple POCs align at similar price levels over several candles, it indicates strong support or resistance zones.
2. Gauge Market Sentiment
Buyer and Seller Activity: High volume at certain price levels can indicate where buyers and sellers are most active. A rising POC suggests stronger buying activity, while a falling POC suggests stronger selling activity.
Volume Profile: Analyzing the volume profile helps in understanding the distribution of traded volume across different price levels, providing insights into market sentiment and potential reversals.
3. Spot Trends and Reversals
Trend Continuation: Consistent upward or downward shifts in POC levels can indicate a trend continuation. Traders can use this information to stay in trending positions.
Reversal Signals: A sudden change in the POC direction may signal a potential reversal. This can be used to take profits or enter new positions.
4. Intraday Trading Strategies
Short-Term Trading: Intraday traders can use the POC to make informed decisions on entry and exit points. For example, buying near the POC during an uptrend or selling near the POC during a downtrend.
Scalping Opportunities: High-frequency traders can use shifts in the POC to scalp small profits from price movements around these key levels.
5. Volume-Based Indicators

Candles Volume HeatMap [BigBeluga]Candles Volume HeatMap
The Candle Volume HeatMap indicator is a unique and advanced tool that visualizes lower timeframe volume activity within higher timeframe candles, offering traders a granular perspective on volume distribution.
⚠️Important note: before using the indicator, it is necessary to apply it to the candles
🔵Key Features:
Volume HeatMap Visualization: The indicator breaks down each higher timeframe candle into 10 equal vertical segments (boxes) based on its high-to-low range. Each box represents a lower timeframe candle's volume activity, with more intense colors indicating stronger volume levels.
Lower Timeframe Integration: Automatically uses a timeframe 10x lower than the current chart. For example, on a 10-hour chart, it uses 1-hour candles to extract volume data.
POC (Point of Control): The highest volume box within each candle is marked with the volume value. The indicator also plots a horizontal POC line at the level of this box, highlighting significant areas of price interest. The POC line is removed once the price crosses it, ensuring the chart stays clean.
Delta Display (Optional): Traders can enable the Delta feature to analyze buyer vs. seller activity within each higher timeframe candle.
Delta is calculated by summing 10 lower timeframe candles: a bullish candle adds to buyers, while a bearish candle adds to sellers. Displays the net Delta percentage: positive values (white) indicate buyer dominance, while negative values (red) indicate seller dominance.
Dynamic Volume Scaling: The highest volume value in each candle is displayed inside its respective box, providing quick insights into critical price-volume levels.
🔵How It Works:
For each higher timeframe candle, the indicator analyzes 10 lower timeframe candles and maps their volume into 10 segments (boxes) between the high and low of the current candle.
The intensity of each box's color corresponds to the relative volume of the lower timeframe candle it represents.
The POC highlights the price level with the highest concentration of volume, aiding in identifying potential support/resistance zones.
Delta analysis offers additional insights into market sentiment by breaking down buyer and seller activity in each candle.
🔵Use Cases:
Spotting key volume areas within higher timeframe candles to identify support and resistance levels.
Analyzing volume concentration for potential breakout or reversal zones.
Leveraging Delta analysis to gauge market sentiment and confirm volume-based trends.

Spot potential liquidity zones where price might react.
Identify support and resistance levels within HTF ranges.
Monitor PoC shifts that indicate changes in market behavior.
Track how current price aligns with significant volume clusters, providing a clear edge for volume-based strategies.
This indicator empowers traders to analyze lower timeframes with the context of higher timeframe volume profiles, providing a solid basis for identifying critical support and resistance levels shaped by large volume clusters. Whether you’re looking to spot liquidity zones or align your trades with broader market trends, HTF Volume Footprint Profile equips you with a strategic view.
Range Detect SystemTechnical analysis indicator designed to identify potential significant price ranges and the distribution of volume within those ranges. The system helps traders calculate POC and show volume history. Also detecting breakouts or potential reversals. System identifies ranges with a high probability of price consolidation and helps screen out extreme price moves or ranges that do not meet certain volatility thresholds.
⭕️ Key Features
Range Detection — identifies price ranges where consolidation is occurring.
Volume Profile Calculation — indicator calculates the Point of Control (POC) based on volume distribution within the identified range, enhancing the analysis of market structure.
Volume History — shows where the largest volume was traded from the center of the range. If the volume is greater in the upper part of the range, the color will be green. If the volume is greater in the lower part, the color will be red.
Range Filtering — Includes multi-level filtering options to avoid ranges that are too volatile or outside normal ranges.
Visual Customization — Shows graphical indicators for potential bullish or bearish crossovers at the upper and lower range boundaries. Users can choose the style and color of the lines, making it easier to visualize ranges and important levels on the chart.
Alerts — system will notify you when a range has been created and also when the price leaves the range.
⭕️ How it works
Extremes (Pivot Points) are taken as a basis, after confirming the relevance of the extremes we take the upper and lower extremes and form a range. We check if it does not violate a number of rules and filters, perform volume calculations, and only then is the range displayed.
Pivot points is a built-in feature that shows an extremum if it has not been updated N bars to the left and N bars to the right. Therefore, there is a delay depending on the bars specified to check, which allows for a more accurate range. This approach allows not to make unnecessary recalculations, which completely eliminates the possibility of redrawing or range changes.
⭕️ Settings
Left Bars and Right Bars — Allows you to define the point that is the highest among the specified number of bars to the left and right of this point.
Range Logic — Select from which point to draw the range. Maximums only, Minimums only or both.
Use Wick — Option to consider the wick of the candles when identifying Range.
Breakout Confirmation — The number of bars required to confirm a breakout, after which the range will close.
Minimum Range Length — Sets the minimum number of candles needed for a range to be considered valid.
Row Size — Number of levels to calculate POC. *Larger values increase the script load.
% Range Filter — Dont Show Range is than more N% of Average Range.
Multi Filter — Allows use of Bollinger Bands, ATR, SMA, or Highest-Lowest range channels for filtering ranges based on volatility.
Range Hit — Shows graphical labels when price hits the upper or lower boundaries of the range, signaling potential reversal or breakout points.
Range Start — Show points where Range was created.
