Support, Resistance & Liquidity Pool ZonesSupport, Resistance & Liquidity Pool Zones
This indicator automatically detects and plots support and resistance levels based on pivot points and highlights liquidity pool zones, areas where the trading volume exceeds the average over a set number of bars. It is designed to help traders identify key price levels and liquidity traps that can trigger significant market reactions.
Key Features:
Support & Resistance Levels:
The indicator identifies pivot highs and pivot lows as potential resistance and support levels, respectively.
You can customize the number of levels shown on the chart, making it easier to focus on the most recent and relevant price levels.
Liquidity Pool Zones:
The script detects liquidity pool zones, which are areas with above-average trading volume. These zones often act as regions of interest where price accumulation or distribution occurs, potentially leading to significant price moves.
Liquidity zones are shaded to help traders visually identify areas of high interest in the market.
Customizable Settings:
You can adjust the pivot period to fine-tune how the indicator calculates support and resistance.
Control the number of support/resistance levels displayed on the chart and the period used to detect liquidity pools.
Customize the colors for support, resistance, and liquidity zones to match your charting preferences.
Alerts:
The script includes built-in alerts for when the price breaks above resistance or falls below support, helping traders catch key breakout opportunities.
How It Works:
The script calculates support and resistance levels using pivot highs and lows based on the user-defined pivot period.
It monitors liquidity pool zones by comparing the current trading volume with the average volume over a customizable period. When the volume exceeds the set threshold, a liquidity pool zone is highlighted, providing insight into where the market may accumulate or distribute.
Alerts are triggered when the price breaks above the first resistance level or falls below the first support level, giving traders immediate notification of key market events.
How to Use:
Tune the Pivot Period: Adjust the pivot period to your preferred time horizon (default: 10 bars).
Set Liquidity Pool Parameters: Customize the number of bars considered for liquidity pool detection and the volume multiplier to detect high-volume zones.
Monitor Breakouts: Use the built-in alerts to catch potential breakout or breakdown opportunities near support and resistance levels.
This script is ideal for traders looking for an easy-to-use tool to visualize support and resistance levels and liquidity pools, aiding in decision-making and trade management.

Thrax - Intraday Market Pressure ZonesTHRAX - INTRADAY MARKET PRESSURE ZONES
This indicator identifies potential support and resistance zones based on areas of significant market pressure. It dynamically plots these zones and adjusts their visibility based on real-time price action and user-defined thresholds. The indicator is useful for traders seeking to understand intraday market pressure, visualize zones of potential price reversals, and analyze volume imbalances at critical levels.
1. Support/Resistance Zones: Wherever the price retraces significantly from its high a support zone is drawn and when it retraces significantly from it low a resistance zone is drawn. The significant retracing is measured by the wick threshold percentage. For instance, if set to 75%, it implies price retracement of 75% either from high or from low for a particular candel
Volume delat: Displays volume delta information where the zones are formed. This can be used by trader to consider only those zones where delta is significant.
2. Breakout Detection: Monitors for price breakouts beyond established zones, deleting zones that are invalidated by price movement. when the price breaks a given zone with the threshold, it is considered to be mitigated and chances of trend continuation is decent.
Candle Coloring: Uses color codes (green, red, and yellow) to represent bullish, bearish, and indecisive (doji) candles, aiding quick visual assessment.
INPUTS
1. Wick Threshold (%) : Sets the minimum wick percentage required for a candle to be considered a support or resistance candidate.
2. Breakout Threshold (%) : Determines the percentage above or below a support or resistance zone that defines a breakout condition. if breaks a zone with the set threshold then the zone will be considered mititgated.
3. Max Number of Support/Resistance Zones : Limits the maximum number of support/resistance zones displayed on the chart, ranging from 1 to 5.
4. Show Wick Percentage Labels : Toggles the display of percentage values for upper and lower wicks on each candle.
TRADE SETUP
Identifying Entry Points: Look for the formation of support or resistance zones. Wait for price to retrace to these zones. if you are willing to take risk, you can consider even zones with low delta. If you want to be more cautious you should consider zones with high delta.
Volume Confirmation: Use the volume information to confirm the strength of the zone. Strong volume differences (displayed as labels) can indicate significant market pressure at these levels.
Breakout Trades: If price breaks through a support/resistance zone by more than the breakout threshold, consider this a signal for a potential trend continuation in the breakout direction.
Risk Management: Set stop-loss levels slightly outside of the identified zones to minimize risk in case of false breakouts. This can be set in input setting for breakout threshold.
Bonus Tip : Mark your significant highs and lows from where prices have retraced multiple times in the near past and if the zone is near these levels it can serve s a strong candidate of support or resistance
Therefore, in conclusion monitor the zones, based on delta and volume presence filter out the zone, wait for price retracement to the zone, intiate the trade with stop loss below zone with a set percentage.
Options Series - Explode BB⭐ Bullish Zone:
⭐ Bearish Zone:
⭐ Neutral Zone:
The provided script integrates Bollinger Bands with different lengths (20 and 200 periods) and applies customized candle coloring based on certain conditions. Here's a breakdown of its importance and insights:
⭐ 1. Dual Bollinger Bands (BBs):
Bollinger Bands (BB) with 20-period length:
This is the standard setting for Bollinger Bands, with a 20-period simple moving average (SMA) as the central line and upper/lower bands derived from the standard deviation.
These bands are used to identify volatility. Wider bands indicate higher volatility, while narrower bands indicate low volatility.
200-period BB:
This is a longer-term indicator providing insight into the overall trend and long-term volatility.
The 200-period bands filter out noise and offer a "macro" view of price movements compared to the 20-period bands, which focus on short-term price actions.
⭐ 2. Overlay of Bollinger Bands and SMA:
The script plots the Bollinger Bands along with the SMA (Simple Moving Average) of the 200-period BB. This gives traders both a short-term (20-period) and long-term (200-period) perspective, which is valuable for detecting major trend shifts or key support and resistance zones.
Using multiple time frames (20-period for short-term and 200-period for long-term) can help traders spot both immediate opportunities and overarching trends.
⭐ 3. Candle Coloring Based on Key Conditions:
Bullish Signal (GreenFluroscent): When the price closes above the upper 200-period Bollinger Band, the candle turns green, indicating a potential bullish breakout.
Bearish Signal (RedFluroscent): If the price closes below the lower 200-period Bollinger Band, the candle turns red, suggesting a bearish breakout.
Neutral or Uncertain Market: Candles are gray when the price remains between the upper and lower bands, indicating a lack of a strong directional bias.
This color-coded visualization allows traders to quickly assess market sentiment based on the Bollinger Bands' extremes.
⭐ 4. Strategic Importance of the Setup:
Multi-timeframe Analysis: Combining short-term (20-period) and long-term (200-period) Bollinger Bands enables traders to assess the market's overall volatility and trend strength. The longer-term bands act as a reference for broader trend direction, while the shorter-term bands can signal shorter-term pullbacks or entry/exit points.
Breakout Identification: By color-coding the candles when prices cross either the upper or lower 200-period bands, the script makes it easier to spot potential breakouts. This can be particularly helpful in trading strategies that rely on volatility expansions or trend-following tactics.
⭐ 5. Customization and Flexibility:
Custom Colors: The script uses distinct fluorescent green and red colors to highlight key bullish and bearish conditions, providing clear visual cues.
Simplicity with Flexibility: Despite its simplicity, the script leaves room for customization, allowing traders to adjust the Bollinger Band multipliers or apply different conditions to candle coloring for more nuanced setups.
This script enhances standard Bollinger Band usage by introducing multi-timeframe analysis, breakout signals, and visual cues for trend strength, making it a powerful tool for both trend-following and mean-reversion strategies.
🚀 Conclusion:
This script effectively simplifies volatility analysis by visually marking bullish, bearish, and neutral zones, making it a robust tool for identifying trade opportunities across multiple timeframes. Its dual-band approach ensures both trend-following and mean-reversion strategies are supported.
RGLRGL Breakout and Retest Trade Strategy
Key Concepts:
Breakout: A breakout occurs when the price moves decisively through a significant support (green line) or resistance (red line) level. This indicates a shift in supply and demand dynamics, with the potential for a strong price movement in the breakout direction.
Retest: After the breakout, the price often returns to the broken level (support becomes resistance and vice versa) to test its validity. This retest provides an opportunity to enter the trade at a more favorable price with confirmation of the breakout.
ADX with Donchian Channels
The "ADX with Donchian Channels" indicator combines the Average Directional Index (ADX) with Donchian Channels to provide traders with a powerful tool for identifying trends and potential breakouts.
Features:
Average Directional Index (ADX):
The ADX is used to quantify the strength of a trend. It helps traders determine whether a market is trending or ranging.
Adjustable parameters for ADX smoothing and DI length allow traders to fine-tune the sensitivity of the trend strength measurement.
Donchian Channels on ADX:
Donchian Channels are applied directly to the ADX values to highlight the highest high and lowest low of the ADX over a specified period.
The upper and lower Donchian Channels can signal potential trend breakouts when the ADX value moves outside these bounds.
The middle Donchian Channel provides a reference for the average trend strength.
Visualization:
The indicator plots the ADX line in red to clearly display the trend strength.
The upper and lower Donchian Channels are plotted in blue, with a green middle line to represent the average.
The area between the upper and lower Donchian Channels is filled with a blue shade to visually emphasize the range of ADX values.
Default Settings for Scalping:
Donchian Channel Length: 10
Standard Deviation Multiplier: 1.58
ADX Length: 2
ADX Smoothing Length: 2
These default settings are optimized for scalping, offering a quick response to changes in trend strength and potential breakout signals. However, traders can adjust these settings to suit different trading styles and market conditions.
How to Use:
Trend Strength Identification: Use the ADX line to identify the strength of the current trend. Higher ADX values indicate stronger trends.
Breakout Signals: Monitor the ADX value in relation to the Donchian Channels. A breakout above the upper channel or below the lower channel can signal a potential trend continuation or reversal.
Range Identification: The filled area between the Donchian Channels provides a visual representation of the ADX range, helping traders identify when the market is ranging or trending.
This indicator is designed to enhance your trading strategy by combining trend strength measurement with breakout signals, making it a versatile tool for various market conditions.
Pivot Points - [RealFact]Description:
The Pivot Points indicator is a powerful tool for identifying potential support and resistance levels based on previous price action. It calculates key pivot levels (P), along with support (S1, S2) and resistance (R1, R2) levels, which are used to forecast potential turning points in the market.
Key Features:
Pivot Calculation: Based on the previous period's high, low, and close prices.
Support and Resistance Levels: Three support (S1, S2) and three resistance (R1, R2) levels.
Customizable Timeframes: Applicable to various timeframes including daily, weekly, and monthly charts.
Visual Representation: Levels are clearly plotted on the chart, making it easy to identify key areas.
Trading Strategies: Useful for breakout, reversal, and trend-following strategies.
How to Use:
Identify Key Levels: Use the pivot point (P) to determine the general market trend.
Support and Resistance: Look for price reactions at S1, S2, R1 and R2 to find potential entry and exit points.
Combine with Other Indicators: Enhance analysis by combining with other technical indicators such as Moving Averages, RSI, or MACD.
Formula:
Pivot Point (P) = (High + Low + Close) / 3
Support 1 (S1) = 2P - High
Resistance 1 (R1) = 2P - Low
Support 2 (S2) = P - (High - Low)
Resistance 2 (R2) = P + (High - Low)
Best Practices:
Confirm with Volume: Look for volume confirmation when price approaches pivot levels.
Avoid False Breakouts: Be cautious of false breakouts and use other indicators to confirm price moves.
Consolidation indicator█ Overview
The "Consolidation Indicator" is a custom indicator for TradingView designed to identify consolidation periods in the price chart. Consolidation typically occurs when the price of an asset moves within a narrow range, and this indicator helps traders recognize such conditions. It can be a useful tool for traders looking to identify potential breakouts or periods of reduced volatility.
█ Indicator Settings
1 — Timeframe: This setting allows you to select the timeframe for which you want to analyze consolidation. You can choose from various timeframes available in TradingView.
2 — Price Smoothing Length: This parameter controls the smoothing of price data. You can adjust the value, with a minimum of 1, to control the level of smoothing applied to the price data.
3 — Average Range Length (range_len): This setting defines the length of the average range used in the calculation of the indicator. By default, it is set to 14.
4 — Threshold for Narrow Range (NR_threshold): The indicator will consider a price range as narrow if it falls below this threshold as a percentage of the average range. It is set to 80% by default.
5 — Consecutive Narrow Ranges for Consolidation: This parameter allows you to specify how many consecutive narrow price ranges are required to confirm a consolidation period. The default value is 3.
6 — Candle Color: You can choose the color for the consolidation candles. The default is a bright green color.
█ Indicator Output
The indicator visually displays consolidation and breakout periods on the price chart using colored candles and breakout icons.
• Candles: During a consolidation period, the indicator colorizes the candles in a specified color (default is green) with a transparency that decreases as the number of consecutive narrow ranges increases. This allows you to easily spot consolidation periods on the chart.
• Breakout Icons: The indicator also places a breakout icon (💥) below the price chart to indicate potential breakout opportunities. When a breakout condition is met, the icon appears with an orange color.
█ Alerts
The indicator provides two alert conditions:
1 — Consolidation Begins: This alert triggers when a consolidation period starts. It indicates that the price is moving within a narrow range compared to the average range.
2 — Breakout: This alert triggers when a potential breakout from the consolidation is detected.
█ How to Use
1 — Apply the "Consolidation Indicator" to your TradingView chart by adding it as a custom indicator.
2 — Customize the indicator settings based on your trading preferences, such as timeframe, smoothing length, and threshold for a narrow range.
3 — Monitor the chart for colored candles. The indicator will color candles to highlight consolidation periods.

HILOCLOP AnalysisThe "HILOCLOP Analysis" indicator is designed to analyze price data based on different conditions and provide insights into market trends and patterns. Let's break down its features and understand its potential usefulness in trading:
Sample Length: The indicator allows the user to specify the sample length, which determines the number of bars or periods considered for the analysis. This parameter can be adjusted to capture short-term or long-term trends and patterns in the market.
Raw Up/Down Analysis: The indicator calculates the number of occurrences where the current price values (high, low, open, close) are higher or lower than their previous values. It provides separate counts for each price component. By visualizing these counts on the chart, traders can identify periods of upward or downward movement in the price data.
HICLOP Analysis: The indicator offers a color scheme option called "HICLOP," which determines the color of the plotted results. If the HICLOP analysis is enabled, the plots representing raw up/down counts will have different colors based on whether the current count is higher or lower than the previous count. This color coding helps traders quickly identify changes in price trends.
Unchecking this Box will Show the general trend.
Raw HICLOP Color Scheme
Trend Color Scheme
Analysis Up vs. Down: The indicator provides an option to analyze instances where all four price components (high, low, open, close) are higher or lower than their respective previous values. This analysis helps traders identify periods of strong upward or downward movement in the market.
Analysis High vs. Low: The indicator compares the number of occurrences where the current high is higher than the previous high and the current low is higher than the previous low. It provides insights into whether the market is experiencing higher highs or higher lows, which can help traders determine the strength of an upward or downward trend.
Analysis Open vs. Close: The indicator compares the number of occurrences where the current close is higher than the previous close and the current open is higher than the previous open. This analysis helps traders assess the relationship between opening and closing prices, providing insights into the strength of buying or selling pressure in the market.
The usefulness of the "HILOCLOP Analysis" indicator in trading depends on the specific trading strategy and the trader's preferences. Here are a few potential use cases:
Trend Identification: By analyzing the raw up/down counts and the HICLOP color scheme, traders can identify trends and changes in price momentum. Increasing raw up counts and corresponding color changes to positive values may indicate an upward trend, while increasing raw down counts and negative color changes may suggest a downward trend.
Confirmation of Breakouts: Traders often look for confirmation of breakouts from key levels or chart patterns. The "Analysis Up V Dn" feature can help identify instances where all four price components simultaneously confirm a breakout, indicating a potentially significant move in the market.
Trend Reversals: The "Analysis High V Low" and "Analysis Open V Close" features can provide insights into potential trend reversals. For example, if there are more higher highs than higher lows, it may indicate a weakening trend, potentially signaling a reversal or a correction.
Donchian Volatility Indicator - Adaptive Channel WidthThis indicator is designed to help traders assess and analyze market volatility. By calculating the width of the Donchian channels, it provides valuable insights into the range of price movements over a specified period. This indicator helps traders identify periods of high and low volatility, enabling them to make more informed trading decisions.
The indicator is based on the concept of Donchian channels, which consist of the highest high and lowest low over a specified lookback period. The channel width is calculated as the difference between the upper and lower channels. A wider channel indicates higher volatility, suggesting potentially larger price movements and increased trading opportunities. On the other hand, a narrower channel suggests lower volatility, indicating a relatively calmer market environment with potentially fewer trading opportunities.
The adaptive aspect of the indicator refers to its ability to adjust the width of the channels dynamically based on market conditions. The indicator calculates the width of the channels using the Average True Range (ATR) indicator, which measures the average range of price movements over a specified period. By multiplying the ATR value with the user-defined ATR multiplier, the indicator adapts the width of the channels to reflect the current level of volatility. During periods of higher volatility, the channels expand to accommodate larger price movements, providing a broader range for assessing volatility. Conversely, during periods of lower volatility, the channels contract, reflecting the narrower price ranges and signaling a decrease in volatility. This adaptive nature allows traders to have a flexible and responsive measure of volatility, ensuring that the indicator reflects the current market conditions accurately.
To provide further insights, the indicator includes a signal line. The signal line is derived from the channel width and is calculated as a simple moving average over a specified signal period. This signal line acts as a reference level, allowing traders to compare the current channel width with the average width over a given time frame. By assessing whether the current channel width is above or below the signal line, traders can gain additional context on the volatility level in the market.
The colors used in the Donchian Volatility Indicator - Adaptive Channel Width play a vital role in visualizing the volatility levels:
-- Lime Color : When the channel width is above the signal line, it is colored lime. This color signifies that volatility has entered the market, indicating potentially higher price movements and increased trading opportunities. Traders can pay closer attention to the lime-colored channel width as it may suggest favorable conditions for trend-following or breakout trading strategies.
-- Fuchsia Color : When the channel width is below the signal line, it is colored fuchsia. This color represents relatively low volatility, suggesting a calmer market environment with potentially fewer trading opportunities. Traders may consider adjusting their strategies during periods of low volatility, such as employing range-bound or mean-reversion strategies.
-- Aqua Color : The signal line is represented by the aqua color. This color allows traders to easily identify the signal line amidst the channel width. The aqua color provides a visual reference for the average channel width and helps traders assess whether the current width is above or below this average.
The Donchian Volatility Indicator - Adaptive Channel Width has several practical applications for traders:
-- Volatility Assessment : Traders can use this indicator to assess the level of volatility in the market. By observing the width of the Donchian channels and comparing it to the signal line, they can determine whether the current volatility is relatively high or low. This information helps traders set appropriate expectations and adjust their trading strategies accordingly.
-- Breakout Trading : Wide channel widths may indicate an increased likelihood of price breakouts. Traders can use the Donchian Volatility Indicator - Adaptive Channel Width to identify potential breakout opportunities. When the channel width exceeds the signal line, it suggests a higher probability of significant price movements, potentially signaling a breakout. Traders may consider entering trades in the direction of the breakout.
-- Risk Management : The indicator can assist in setting appropriate stop-loss levels based on the current volatility. During periods of high volatility (lime-colored channel width), wider stop-loss orders may be warranted to account for larger price swings. Conversely, during periods of low volatility (fuchsia-colored channel width), narrower stop-loss orders may be appropriate to limit risk in a more range-bound market.
While the Donchian Volatility Indicator - Adaptive Channel Width is a valuable tool, it is important to consider its limitations:
-- Lagging Indicator : The indicator relies on historical price data, making it a lagging indicator. It provides insights based on past price movements and may not capture sudden changes or shifts in volatility. Traders should be aware that the indicator may not generate real-time signals and should be used in conjunction with other indicators and analysis tools.
-- False Signals : Like any technical indicator, the Donchian Volatility Indicator - Adaptive Channel Width is not immune to generating false signals. Traders should exercise caution and use additional analysis to confirm the signals generated by the indicator. Considering the broader market context and employing risk management techniques can help mitigate the impact of false signals.
-- Market Conditions : Market conditions can vary, and volatility levels can differ across different assets and timeframes. Traders should adapt their strategies and consider other market factors when interpreting the signals provided by the indicator. It is crucial to avoid relying solely on the indicator and to incorporate a comprehensive analysis of the market environment.
In conclusion, this indicator is a powerful tool for assessing market volatility. By examining the width of the Donchian channels and comparing it to the signal line, traders can gain insights into the level of volatility and adjust their trading strategies accordingly. The color-coded representation of the channel width and signal line allows for easy visualization and interpretation of the volatility dynamics. Traders should utilize this indicator as part of a broader trading approach, incorporating other technical analysis tools and considering market conditions for a comprehensive assessment of market volatility.
SuperBollingerTrend (Expo)█ Overview
The SuperBollingerTrend indicator is a combination of two popular technical analysis tools, Bollinger Bands, and SuperTrend. By fusing these two indicators, SuperBollingerTrend aims to provide traders with a more comprehensive view of the market, accounting for both volatility and trend direction. By combining trend identification with volatility analysis, the SuperBollingerTrend indicator provides traders with valuable insights into potential trend changes. It recognizes that high volatility levels often accompany stronger price momentum, which can result in the formation of new trends or the continuation of existing ones.
█ How Volatility Impacts Trends
Volatility can impact trends by expanding or contracting them, triggering trend reversals, leading to breakouts, and influencing risk management decisions. Traders need to analyze and monitor volatility levels in conjunction with trend analysis to gain a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics.
█ How to use
Trend Reversals: High volatility can result in more dramatic price fluctuations, which may lead to sharp trend reversals. For example, a sudden increase in volatility can cause a bullish trend to transition into a bearish one, or vice versa, as traders react to significant price swings.
Volatility Breakouts: Volatility can trigger breakouts in trends. Breakouts occur when the price breaks through a significant support or resistance level, indicating a potential shift in the trend. Higher volatility levels can increase the likelihood of breakouts, as they indicate stronger market momentum and increased buying or selling pressure. This indicator triggers when the volatility increases, and if the price is near a key level when the indicator alerts, it might trigger a great trend.
█ Features
Peak Signal Move
The indicator calculates the peak price move for each ZigZag and displays it under each signal. This highlights how much the market moved between the signals.
Average ZigZag Move
All price moves between two signals are stored, and the average or the median is calculated and displayed in a table. This gives traders a great idea of how much the market moves on average between two signals.
Take Profit
The Take Profit line is placed at the average or the median price move and gives traders a great idea of what they can expect in average profit from the latest signals.

Trap Trading
Trap trading is a trading strategy that seeks to profit from false breakouts in financial markets. This strategy is based on the idea that when the market breaks through a key level of support or resistance, many traders will take that as a signal to enter or exit trades, causing the price to move further in the breakout direction.
However, in some cases, the market will quickly reverse course and move in the opposite direction, trapping those traders who entered the trade based on the breakout. This can create a trading opportunity for those who are able to identify the false breakout and trade in the opposite direction.
The trap trading strategy typically involves identifying a key level of support or resistance on a price chart and then waiting for the market to break through that level. If the price continues to move in the breakout direction, the trader may enter a trade in that direction with a stop loss set just below the breakout level.
However, if the market quickly reverses and moves back below the breakout level, the trader may enter a trade in the opposite direction with a stop loss set just above the breakout level. The idea is to take advantage of the trapped traders who entered the trade based on the false breakout, and profit from the market's reversal.
As with any trading strategy, there are risks and potential drawbacks to trap trading. False breakouts can be difficult to identify, and there is always the risk that the market will continue to move in the breakout direction, resulting in losses for the trader. Additionally, trap trading requires a solid understanding of technical analysis and market trends, which may take time and experience to develop.
V Bottom & V Top Pattern [Misu]█ This indicator shows V bottom & V top patterns as well as potential V bottom & V top.
These V bottom & V top are chart powerful reversal patterns.
They appear in all markets and time-frames, but due to the nature of the aggressive moves that take place when a market reverses direction, it can be difficult to identify this pattern in real-time.
To address this problem, I added potential V pattern as well as the confirmed one.
█ Usages:
You can use V top & V bottoms for reversal zones.
You can use it for scalping strategies, as a main buy & sell signal.
Potential V patterns can be used to anticipate the market, in addition to volatility or momentum indicators, for example.
█ How it works?
This indicator uses pivot points to determine potential V patterns and confirm them.
Paramaters are available to filter breakouts of varying strengths.
Patterns also have a "max number bars" to be validated.
█ Why a Strategy type indicator?
Due to the many different parameters, this indicator is a strategy type.
This way you can overview the best settings depending on your pair & timeframe.
Parameters are available to filter.
█ Parameters:

HOW TO USE THIS INDICATOR
This indicator is designed to show the 'character' of a market move by grouping signals into distinct categories. Instead of seeing many individual signals, you see the strength of the underlying forces driving the price.
1. READ THE HEIGHT (Strength of Confluence)
The total height of the stack shows the strength of agreement. A tall stack means many signals are aligned, indicating a high-conviction move. A short stack means weak agreement and a choppy, indecisive market.
2. READ THE COLOR (Character of the Move)
The colors tell you WHY the market is moving.
BLUE (Momentum): A stack of mostly blue shades indicates a trend driven by pure momentum. This is the 'speed' of the market.
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Measures the magnitude of recent price gains versus losses. A smooth measure of trend strength.
Stochastic Oscillator: Measures the current closing price's position within the recent high-low range. More sensitive to immediate price action.
CCI (Commodity Channel Index): Measures the price's deviation from its moving average. Excels at identifying cyclical turns.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence): A trend-following momentum indicator showing the relationship between two moving averages. Excellent for identifying the start and end of trends.
YELLOW (Volume): The appearance of yellow shades confirms the move is supported by high market participation. This is the 'fuel' for the trend.
Volume Ratio: A custom signal that triggers when buy or sell volume is unusually high compared to its recent average.
CRV (Candle Range Volume): A custom signal that looks for candles with significant price range and volume.
OBV (On-Balance Volume): A cumulative indicator that adds volume on up days and subtracts it on down days. It shows the long-term flow of money.
FUCHSIA (Volatility): A fuchsia block signals a volatility breakout. This adds a sense of urgency and confirms the price is moving with exceptional force.
Bollinger Bands: A signal triggers when the price closes outside of the upper or lower standard deviation bands.
ORANGE (Price Action): An orange block is a pure price structure signal. It's a raw statement of intent from the market.
Price Gap: A signal that triggers when there's a gap up or gap down between candles.
3. READ THE TRANSITION (Shift in Sentiment)
The most important signal from the stacks is the flip from one side of the zero line to the other.
Flipping from Negative to Positive: A bearish stack disappears and is replaced by a bullish stack. This indicates market sentiment is shifting from bearish to bullish.
Flipping from Positive to Negative: A bullish stack disappears and is replaced by a bearish stack. This warns of a potential top or the start of a new downtrend.
4. FILTER FOR NOISE (Plot Threshold)
In choppy markets, the stack can flicker with low signal counts (e.g., +1 or -1). To focus only on high-conviction moves, go to the indicator settings and increase the "Plot Threshold". A setting of 2 or 3 will hide all stacks that don't have at least 2 or 3 agreeing signals, effectively filtering out market noise and keeping your chart clean.
5. CUSTOMIZE YOUR SIGNALS (Enable/Disable)
This indicator is fully customizable. In the settings, you can enable or disable each of the 9 indicators individually. For example, if you are a pure momentum trader, you could disable all Volume, Volatility, and Price Action signals to focus only on the blue stacks. Tailor it to fit your specific trading style.
EXAMPLE INTERPRETATIONS
Strong, Confirmed Trend: A tall stack of mostly blue (Momentum) and yellow (Volume) indicates a high-quality trend backed by both speed and market participation.
Momentum-Only Trend: A tall stack of only blue is a strong momentum move, but the lack of yellow (Volume) is a warning that the move may lack the "fuel" to be sustained.
Choppy/Indecisive Market: A short, mixed-color stack flickering around the zero line means the market is choppy with no clear conviction. It's often best to stay out.
Volatility Breakout: A new stack that appears suddenly with a fuchsia (Bollinger Bands) block on its first bar suggests a volatility-driven breakout is initiating.
Exhaustion Move: An orange (Price Gap) block appearing at the peak of a tall, long-standing stack can signal an exhaustion gap, potentially marking the end of the trend.
Weakening Conviction (Divergence): If price makes a new high but the positive stack is visibly shorter than the stack at the previous price high, it suggests underlying conviction is weakening.
Symmetrical Triangle Strategy (Real and Trap confirmation)Overview
This is an advanced strategy that not only detects symmetrical triangle patterns but also attempts to differentiate between a genuine breakout and a false breakout (a trap) to trade accordingly.
Instead of blindly following every breakout, it analyzes the "quality" of the move using Volume and RSI filters. If the breakout appears weak, it prepares to trade in the opposite direction, capitalizing on the pattern's failure.
How It Works
The strategy employs a dual logic that activates after the price breaks the last pivot (H3 or L3):
1. Scenario A: The Real Breakout
* If the price breaks the triangle AND the breakout is confirmed by a surge in volume and/or a favorable RSI, the strategy considers the move genuine and enters in the direction of the breakout.
2. Scenario B: The False Breakout (Trap)
* If the price breaks the triangle BUT the indicators fail to confirm it (e.g., low volume), the strategy interprets it as a potential trap.
* It waits for the price to return inside the pattern.
* Once the price has re-entered, it opens a trade AGAINST the initial breakout, betting that the first move was a fake-out.
Key Features
* Hybrid Logic: It's not just a simple breakout strategy; it adapts to market conditions.
* Confirmation Filters: Uses Volume and RSI to validate the strength of a breakout (fully configurable).
* Capitalizes on Traps: Its greatest strength is the ability to identify and trade false breakouts, a common market scenario.
* Optional Confirmation: For trap trades, an extra confirmation via an EMA crossover can be enabled for added safety.
* Opportunity Timeout: Potential traps have a time limit to be confirmed, preventing the strategy from getting stuck in an undecided scenario.
Important Disclaimer
This strategy is designed as an entry system and DOES NOT INCLUDE A STOP LOSS OR TAKE PROFIT.

The Daily Bias Dashboard📜 Overview
This indicator is a powerful statistical tool designed to provide traders with a probable Daily Bias based on historical price action. It is built upon the concepts of Quarterly Theory, which divides the 24-hour trading day into 4 distinct sessions to analyze market behavior.
This tool analyzes how the market has behaved in the past to give you a statistical edge. It answers the question: "Based on the last X number of days, what is the most likely way the price will move during the Newyork AM & PM Sessions based on Asian & London Sessions?"
⚙️ How It Works
The indicator divides the 24-hour day (based on the America/New_York timezone) into two 12-hour halves:
First Half - 12 Hour Candle: The Accumulation/Manipulation or Asian/London Sessions (6 PM to 6 AM NY Time)
This period covers the Asian session and the start of the London session.
The indicator's only job here is to identify the highest high and lowest low of this 12-hour block, establishing the initial daily range.
Second Half - 12 Hour Candle: The Distribution/Continuation or NY AM/PM Sessions (6 AM to 6 PM NY Time)
This period covers the main London session and the full New York session.
The indicator actively watches to see if, and in what order, the price breaks out of the range established in Session 1 (FIrst Half of the day).
By tracking this behavior over hundreds of days, the indicator compiles statistics on four possible daily scenarios.
📊 The Four Scenarios & The Dashboard
The indicator presents its findings in a clean, easy-to-read dashboard, calculating the historical probability of each of the following scenarios:
↓ Low, then ↑ High: The price first breaks the low of Session 1 (often a liquidity sweep or stop hunt) before reversing to break the high of Session 1. This suggests a "sweep and reverse" bullish day.
↑ High, then ↓ Low: The price first breaks the high of Session 1 before reversing to break the low of Session 1. This suggests a "sweep and reverse" bearish day.
One-Sided Breakout: The price breaks only one of the boundaries (either the high or the low) and continues in that direction without taking the other side. This indicates a strong, trending day.
No Breakout (Inside Bar): The price fails to break either the high or the low of Session 1, remaining contained within its range. This indicates a day of consolidation and low volatility.
🧠 How to Use This Indicator
This is a confluence tool, not a standalone trading system. Its purpose is to help you frame a high-probability narrative for the trading day.
Establish a Bias: Start checking the dashboard at 06:00 AM Newyork time, which is the start of next half day trading session. If one scenario has a significantly higher probability (e.g., "One-Sided Breakout" at 89%), you have a statistically-backed directional bias in the direction of Breakout.
🔧 Features & Settings
Historical Days to Analyze: Set how many past days the indicator should use for its statistical analysis (default is 500).
Session Timezone : The calculation is locked to America/New_York as it is central to the Quarterly Theory concept, but this setting ensures correct alignment.
Dashboard Display: Fully customize the on-screen table, including its position and text size, or hide it completely.
⚠️ Important Notes
For maximum accuracy, use this indicator on hourly (H1) or lower timeframes.
The statistical probabilities are based on past performance and are not a guarantee of future results.
This tool is designed to sharpen your analytical skills and provide a robust, data-driven framework for your daily trading decisions. Use it to build confidence in your directional bias and to better understand the rhythm of the market.

Coefficient of Variance BarsThe script calculates the Coefficient of Variance (CV), which is the standard deviation (a measure of volatility) divided by the average price over a set period. In simple terms, it tells you how volatile the market is in relation to its current price level.
• Highlighting Volatility Increase: By default, the script colors the bars when this relative volatility makes a new high. This suggests that the market is "waking up" and that a significant price move could be starting.
• Highlighting Low Volatility (Inverse Mode): When you uncheck the box in the settings, it highlights periods where volatility is not making a new high. This is useful for spotting quiet, consolidating markets.
________________________________________
How to Use It in Trading
This indicator is a complementary tool and should be used with other forms of analysis, like price action or trend indicators.
1. Spotting Potential Breakouts
The most common use is to anticipate breakouts. When the price is moving in a tight range (consolidation) and you suddenly see a highlighted bar, it signals a surge in volatility. This is often the catalyst that pushes the price out of the range.
• Strategy: Look for a period of price consolidation. When a bar is colored, indicating a volatility spike, look for a confirmation of a breakout (e.g., a candle closing above resistance or below support) and consider entering a trade in that direction.
2. Identifying Ranging Markets
By switching to the inverse mode, you can easily see when the market is quiet and range-bound.
• Strategy: When the bars are consistently highlighted in inverse mode, it confirms a ranging market. This is the ideal environment for strategies that capitalize on sideways movement, such as using oscillators (like RSI or Stochastics) to trade between support and resistance levels.
3. Gauging Trend Strength and Exhaustion
In a strong, ongoing trend, you'll likely see intermittent volatility spikes confirming the momentum. However, a sudden, massive spike in volatility after a very long trend might signal a "climax," potentially indicating the trend is exhausted and a reversal could be near.
Volume Footprint Anomaly Scanner [PhenLabs]📊 PhenLabs - Volume Footprint Anomaly Scanner (VFAS)
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
The PhenLabs Volume Footprint Anomaly Scanner (VFAS) is an advanced Pine Script indicator designed to detect and highlight significant imbalances in buying and selling pressure within individual price bars. By analyzing a calculated "Delta" – the net difference between estimated buy and sell volume – and employing statistical Z-score analysis, VFAS pinpoints moments when buying or selling activity becomes unusually dominant. This script was created not in hopes of creating a "Buy and Sell" indicator but rather providing the user with a more in-depth insight into the intrabar volume delta and how it can fluctuate in unusual ways, leading to anomalies that can be capitalized on.
This indicator helps traders identify high-conviction points where strong market participants are active, signaling potential shifts in momentum or continuation of a trend. It aims to provide a clearer understanding of underlying market dynamics, allowing for more informed decision-making in various trading strategies, from identifying entry points to confirming trend strength.

📖 Usage Guidelines
Setting Categories
⚙️ Core Delta & Volume Engine
● Minimum Volume Lookback (Bars)
○ Default: 9
○ Range: Integer (e.g., 5-50)
○ Description: Defines the number of preceding bars used to calculate the average volume and delta. Bars with volume below this average won't be considered for high-volume signals. A shorter lookback is more reactive to recent changes, while a longer one provides a smoother average.
📈 Anomaly Detection Settings
Delta Z-Score Anomaly Threshold
○ Default: 2.5
○ Range: Float (e.g., 1.0-5.0+)
○ Description: The number of standard deviations from the mean that a bar's delta must exceed to be considered a significant anomaly. A higher threshold means fewer, but potentially stronger, signals. A lower threshold will generate more signals, which might include less significant events. Experiment to find the optimal balance for your trading style.
🔬 Context Filters
Enable Trend Filter
○ Default: False
○ Range: Boolean (True/False)
○ Description: When enabled, signals will only be generated if they align with the current market trend as determined by the EMAs (e.g., only bullish signals in an uptrend, bearish in a downtrend). This helps to filter out counter-trend noise.
● Trend EMA Fast
○ Default: 50
○ Range: Integer (e.g., 10-100)
○ Description: The period for the faster Exponential Moving Average used in the trend filter. In combination with the slow EMA, it defines the trend direction.
● Trend EMA Slow
○ Default: 200
○ Range: Integer (e.g., 100-400)
○ Description: The period for the slower Exponential Moving Average used in the trend filter. The relationship between the fast and slow EMA determines if the market is in an uptrend (fast > slow) or downtrend (fast < slow).
🎨 Visual & UI Settings
● Show Info Dashboard
○ Default: True
○ Range: Boolean (True/False)
○ Description: Toggles the visibility of the dashboard on the chart, which provides a summary of market trend and the last detected signal.
● Show Dashboard Tooltip
○ Default: True
○ Range: Boolean (True/False)
○ Description: Toggles a reminder message in the dashboard to hover over signal labels for more detailed information.
● Show Delta Anomaly Bar Colors
○ Default: True
○ Range: Boolean (True/False)
○ Description: Enables or disables the coloring of bars based on their delta direction and whether they represent a significant anomaly.
● Show Signal Labels
○ Default: True
○ Range: Boolean (True/False)
○ Description: Controls the visibility of the “📈” or “📉” labels that appear on the chart when a delta anomaly signal is generated.
🔔 Alert Settings
Alert on Delta Anomaly
○ Default: True
○ Range: Boolean (True/False)
○ Description: When enabled, this setting allows you to set up alerts in TradingView that will trigger whenever a new bullish or bearish delta anomaly is detected.
✅ Best Use Cases
Early Trend Reversal / Continuation Detection: Identify strong surges of buying/selling pressure at key support/resistance levels that could indicate a reversal or the continuation of a strong move.
● Confirmation of Breakouts: Use high-confidence delta anomalies to confirm the validity of price breakouts, indicating strong conviction behind the move.
● Entry and Exit Points: Pinpoint precise entry opportunities when anomalies align with your trading strategy, or identify potential exhaustion signals for exiting trades.
● Scalping and Day Trading: The indicator’s sensitivity to intraday buying/selling imbalances makes it highly effective for short-term trading strategies.
● Market Sentiment Analysis: Gain a real-time understanding of underlying market sentiment by observing the prevalence and strength of bullish vs. bearish anomalies.
⚠️ Limitations
Estimated Delta: The script uses a simplified method to estimate delta based on bar close relative to its range, not actual order book or footprint data. While effective, it’s an approximation.
● Sensitivity to Z-Score Threshold: The effectiveness heavily relies on the `Delta Z-Score Anomaly Threshold`. Too low, and you’ll get many false positives; too high, and you might miss valid signals.
● Confirmation Criteria: The 4-star confidence level’s “confirmation” relies on specific subsequent bar conditions and previous confirmed signals, which might be too strict or specific for all contexts.
● Requires Context: While powerful, VFAS is best used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and price action to form a comprehensive trading strategy. It is not a standalone “buy/sell” signal.
💡 What Makes This Unique
Statistical Rigor: The application of Z-score analysis to bar delta provides an objective, statistically-driven way to identify true anomalies, moving beyond arbitrary thresholds.
● Multi-Factor Confidence Scoring: The unique 1-4 star confidence system integrates multiple market dynamics (volume, trend alignment, specific follow-through) into a single, easy-to-interpret rating.
● User-Friendly Design: From the intuitive dashboard to the detailed signal tooltips, the indicator prioritizes clear and accessible information for traders of all experience levels.
🔬 How It Works
1. Bar Delta Calculation:
● The script first estimates the “buy volume” and “sell volume” for each bar. This is done by assuming that volume proportional to the distance from the low to the close represents buying, and volume proportional to the distance from the high to the close represents selling.
● How this contributes: This provides a proxy for the net buying or selling pressure (delta) within that specific price bar, even without access to actual footprint data.
2. Volume & Delta Z-Score Analysis:
● The average volume over a user-defined lookback period is calculated. Bars with volume less than twice this average are generally considered of lower interest.
● The Z-score for the calculated bar delta is computed. The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the current bar’s delta is from its average delta over the `Minimum Volume Lookback` period.
● How this contributes: A high positive Z-score indicates a bullish delta anomaly (significantly more buying than usual), while a high negative Z-score indicates a bearish delta anomaly (significantly more selling than usual). This identifies statistically unusual levels of pressure.
3. Trend Filtering (Optional):
● Two Exponential Moving Averages (Fast and Slow EMA) are used to determine the prevailing market trend. An uptrend is identified when the Fast EMA is above the Slow EMA, and a downtrend when the Fast EMA is below the Slow EMA.
● How this contributes: If enabled, the indicator will only display bullish delta anomalies during an uptrend and bearish delta anomalies during a downtrend, helping to confirm signals within the broader market context and avoid counter-trend signals.
4. Signal Generation & Confidence Scoring:
● When a delta Z-score exceeds the user-defined anomaly threshold, a signal is generated.
● This signal is then passed through a multi-factor confidence algorithm (`f_calculateConfidence`). It awards stars based on: high volume presence, alignment with the overall trend (if enabled), and a fourth star for very strong Z-scores (above 3.0) combined with specific follow-through candle patterns after a cooling-off period from a previous confirmed signal.
● How this contributes: Provides a qualitative rating (1-4 stars) for each anomaly, allowing traders to quickly assess the potential significance and reliability of the signal.
💡 Note:
The PhenLabs Volume Footprint Anomaly Scanner is a powerful analytical tool, but it’s crucial to understand that no indicator guarantees profit. Always backtest and forward-test the indicator settings on your chosen assets and timeframes. Consider integrating VFAS with your existing trading strategy, using its signals as confirmation for entries, exits, or trend bias. The Z-score threshold is highly customizable; lower values will yield more signals (including potential noise), while higher values will provide fewer but potentially higher-conviction signals. Adjust this parameter based on market volatility and your risk tolerance. Remember to combine statistical insights from VFAS with price action, support/resistance levels, and your overall market outlook for optimal results.
VOLUME Simple [Titans_Invest]VOLUME Simple
A streamlined volume analysis tool crafted for simplicity and smart signal detection.
Although simple in appearance, this indicator brings intelligent volume-based entries through configurable logic. Its design emphasizes clean and effective interpretation of volume signals.
⯁ WHAT IS THE VOLUME INDICATOR❓
The Volume indicator is a fundamental technical analysis tool that measures the number of shares or contracts traded in a security or market during a given period. It helps traders and investors understand the strength or weakness of a price movement, confirm trends, and predict potential reversals. Volume is typically displayed as a histogram below a price chart, with each bar representing the volume traded during a specific time interval.
⯁ HOW TO USE THE VOLUME❓
The Volume indicator can be used in several ways to enhance trading decisions:
• Trend Confirmation: High volume during a price move confirms the strength of that trend, while low volume can indicate a weak or unsustainable trend.
• Breakouts: A price breakout from a pattern or range accompanied by high volume is more likely to be valid and sustainable.
• Divergence: When the price moves in one direction and volume moves in the opposite direction, it can signal a potential reversal.
• Overbought/Oversold Conditions: Extreme volume levels can sometimes indicate that an asset is overbought or oversold, though this is less straightforward than with oscillators like the RSI.

Squeeze Pro Momentum BAR color - KLTDescription:
The Squeeze Pro Momentum indicator is a powerful tool designed to detect volatility compression ("squeeze" zones) and visualize momentum shifts using a refined color-based system. This script blends the well-known concepts of Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels with an optimized momentum engine that uses dynamic color gradients to reflect trend strength, direction, and volatility.
It’s built for traders who want early warning of potential breakouts and clearer insight into underlying market momentum.
🔍 How It Works:
📉 Squeeze Detection:
This indicator identifies "squeeze" conditions by comparing Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels:
When Bollinger Bands are inside Keltner Channels → Squeeze is ON
When Bollinger Bands expand outside Keltner Channels → Squeeze is OFF
You’ll see squeeze zones classified as:
Wide
Normal
Narrow
Each represents varying levels of compression and breakout potential.
⚡ Momentum Engine:
Momentum is calculated using linear regression of the price's deviation from a dynamic average of highs, lows, and closes. This gives a more accurate representation of directional pressure in the market.
🧠 Smart Candle Coloring (Optimized):
The momentum color logic is inspired by machine learning principles (no hardcoded thresholds):
EMA smoothing and rate of change (ROC) are used to detect momentum acceleration.
ATR-based filters help remove noise and false signals.
Colors are dynamically assigned based on both direction and trend strength.
🧪 How to Use It:
Look for Squeeze Conditions — especially narrow squeezes, which tend to precede high-momentum breakouts.
Confirm with Momentum Color — strong colors often indicate trend continuation; fading colors may signal exhaustion.
Combine with Price Action — use this tool with support/resistance or patterns for higher probability setups.
Recommended For:
Trend Traders
Breakout Traders
Volatility Strategy Users
Anyone who wants visual clarity on trend strength
📌 Tip: This indicator works great when layered with volume and price action patterns. It is fully non-repainting and supports overlay on price charts.
BB with Heikin Ashi + Reversal CheckThis indicator combines Bollinger Bands (BB) with Heikin Ashi candles to detect potential reversal points after price breaks the BB boundaries. It works on any symbol and timeframe, retrieving Heikin Ashi data via request.security().
Core Features
Heikin Ashi Candle Plot
Smooths price action by using Heikin Ashi candles instead of regular candles.
Candles are plotted directly on the chart with green (bullish) and red (bearish) colors.
Bollinger Bands (BB)
Calculated from Heikin Ashi close price.
Includes Basis (MA), Upper Band, and Lower Band, with customizable MA type, length, and standard deviation multiplier.
Break & Reversal Detection
The indicator tracks whether the price has broken above the Upper Band (p1) or below the Lower Band (p2).
It remembers the last breakout direction until the opposite breakout occurs (mutually exclusive logic).
Signal Logic
Long Signal (▲):
Price was previously below the Lower Band and then reversed upward (BB Lower rising + Heikin Ashi candle rising).
Short Signal (▼):
Price was previously above the Upper Band and then reversed downward (BB Upper falling + Heikin Ashi candle falling).
Alerts
Custom alert conditions trigger when Long or Short signals occur, allowing automated notifications or bot integration.
Use Cases
✅ Swing Trading / Trend Reversal – Identify potential bottom/top reversals after BB breakouts.
✅ Mean Reversion Strategies – Enter trades when the price reverts to the BB mean after an extreme breakout.
✅ Multi-Timeframe Analysis – Works with any timeframe and symbol via request.security().
Customization

Kyber Cell's – TTM Wave AThe Kyber Cell’s Wave A – TTM Squeeze Momentum Histogram
⸻
1. Introduction
Wave A is the momentum core of the TTM Squeeze system. As the most dynamic and visually responsive of the three “waves,” it captures the ebb and flow of price strength using linear regression techniques. This histogram-based indicator is typically displayed below the chart and serves as an early warning system for potential breakouts, as well as a momentum health monitor during trades.
Built for traders who value precision, timing, and visual clarity, Kyber Cell’s Wave A re-engineers the traditional TTM Wave A with enhanced color logic, momentum sensitivity, and integration-readiness with multi-wave systems. Whether you’re scalping intraday volatility or riding longer-term swings, this tool gives you the pulse of the move — before the price fully commits.
⸻
2. Core Concept and Calculation
Wave A focuses on momentum as deviation from equilibrium, using a linear regression of the smoothed price difference between:
• The current close
• And the average of the Bollinger Band basis and a mid-range average of highs and lows
The result is a histogram that expands and contracts based on how far and how fast price is moving away from its mean. This makes it ideal for identifying when markets are building pressure (compression), releasing energy (expansion), or losing steam (divergence).
⸻
3. Visual Output and Color Logic
The Wave A histogram dynamically changes color based on the direction and acceleration of momentum:
• Bright Cyan: Bullish momentum increasing
• Dark Blue: Bullish momentum weakening
• Bright Red: Bearish momentum increasing
• Dark Red: Bearish momentum weakening
This 4-color system helps traders instantly identify not just the direction of momentum, but the quality of that move:
• Increasing color brightness = momentum is building
• Dimming colors = momentum is fading
This is especially useful in squeeze trades — a rising Wave A during a green dot (squeeze fire) confirms breakout direction. Conversely, a fading Wave A may suggest to delay entry or prepare to exit.
⸻
4. Ideal Use Case
Wave A is most effective when used in conjunction with a TTM Squeeze dot indicator (such as your Squeeze Pro) and optional Wave B/C overlays. The typical workflow:
1. Watch for Compression: Red, orange, or blue squeeze dots from the main chart indicator.
2. Confirm with Wave A: Enter long if Wave A flips cyan and is rising, or short if it flips bright red and is increasing.
3. Monitor the Bars: Fading bars may signal divergence, exhaustion, or false breakouts.
4. Exit Gracefully: When the histogram flips against your position and starts rising in the opposite color, it’s often a signal to consider tightening stops or taking profit.
⸻
5. Configuration and Customization
Wave A is intentionally minimal in external configuration, focusing instead on clean visuals and fast response. However, key parameters typically include:
• Length of the linear regression (commonly set to match the Squeeze window)
• Price smoothing options (if enabled)
• Bar coloring toggle (to adapt for personal theme preferences or integration into multi-wave dashboards)

6. Alerts and Add-ons
While Wave A itself is primarily visual, it can be enhanced with optional alert logic:
• Histogram flip from negative to positive (bullish)
• Histogram flip from positive to negative (bearish)
• Momentum peak or divergence alert (custom-coded for advanced users)
Traders often link this with a squeeze-fire signal or Wave B trend alignment to trigger more sophisticated alerts or automation workflows.
