VWAP 14 & EMA 8 RibbonIndicator that shows when 8 EMA crosses the VWAP 14. I have found this cross to be very bullish on the weekly timeframe. The VWAP 14 on its own serves as a good support and resistance as well. Very effective on the daily as well and even the 4 hour timeframe.
SwingTrade ADX Strategy v6**Overview:**
This Pine Script™ strategy is designed for swing trading, primarily utilizing the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) as a core component. It aims to identify potential entry and exit points by analyzing price action relative to the VWAP, an optional ADX filter for trend strength, and an optional volume ratio filter for confirmation. The strategy is highly customizable, allowing users to enable/disable individual signal components and adjust their parameters.
**Key Features & Indicators Used:**
* **VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price):** The central indicator, reset daily.
* **VWAP Delta:** Calculates the percentage deviation of the closing price from the VWAP. The strategy looks for rising/falling delta momentum.
* **ADX (Average Directional Index):** An optional filter to gauge trend strength. Trades can be filtered to only occur when ADX is above a defined threshold and DMI lines (+DI vs -DI) align with the trade direction.
* **Volume Ratio:** An optional filter comparing the sum of volume traded when the price is above VWAP versus below VWAP over a specified period. This helps gauge bullish/bearish volume pressure.
* **Customizable Backtesting Period:** Users can define a specific start and end date for backtesting.
* **Toggleable Components:** VWAP, ADX, and Volume signals can be individually enabled or disabled.
**How It Works - Logic:**
1. **VWAP Signals (Optional - Disabled by Default):**
* **Long Condition:** If enabled, a potential long entry is considered when the price crosses above the VWAP, the VWAP delta is rising (indicating momentum building away from VWAP), and the price is a certain percentage above the VWAP (sensitivity).
* **Short Condition:** If enabled, a potential short entry is considered when the price crosses below the VWAP, the VWAP delta is falling, and the price is a certain percentage below the VWAP.
2. **ADX Filter (Optional - Enabled by Default):**
* If enabled, trades are only considered if the ADX value is above a user-defined threshold (indicating a strong trend) AND the Directional Movement Index (DMI) lines (+DI and -DI) confirm the trade direction (e.g., +DI > -DI for longs).
3. **Volume Ratio Filter (Optional - Enabled by Default):**
* If enabled, for a long trade, the ratio of volume traded above VWAP to volume traded below VWAP must exceed a bullish threshold. For a short trade, this ratio must be below a bearish threshold (implying more volume traded below VWAP).
4. **Entry Signal:**
* A final `buySignal` or `sellSignal` is generated only if ALL enabled conditions (VWAP, ADX, Volume) are met and the trade falls within the selected `dateFilter`.
* The strategy enters a trade only if there are no other open trades (`strategy.opentrades == 0`).
5. **Exit Signal:**
* Exits are designed to capture a potential shift in momentum relative to the VWAP delta.
* **Exit Long:** If in a long position, the price is above VWAP, AND the VWAP delta (which was previously rising during the trade) starts to fall.
* **Exit Short:** If in a short position, the price is below VWAP, AND the VWAP delta (which was previously falling during the trade) starts to rise.
**Customization & Inputs:**
Users can adjust the following via the script's settings:
* **Backtest Settings:** `Backtest Start` and `Backtest End` dates.
* **Display:** Toggle `Show VWAP` line and `Show Labels` for signals.
* **Enable Indicators:** Individually enable/disable `VWAP Signals` (default: OFF), `Enable ADX Filter` (default: ON), `Enable Volume Signals` (default: ON).
* **VWAP Parameters:** `VWAP Signal Period (for Delta)` and `VWAP Signal Sensitivity (%)`.
* **ADX Parameters:** `ADX Period` and `ADX Threshold`.
* **Volume Parameters:** `Volume Period` and `Volume Ratio Threshold`.
**Visuals on Chart:**
* Plots the VWAP line (if enabled).
* Plots `BUY ENTRY` (green triangle up) and `SELL ENTRY` (red triangle down) markers.
* Plots `EXIT BUY` (lime cross) and `EXIT SELL` (orange cross) markers.
* Optional text labels for each signal type.
* An information panel in the top-right corner displaying current values for VWAP Delta %, ADX, and Volume Ratio.

**Regarding "Ideal Settings for Profit":**
**IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: There are NO universally "ideal" or "guaranteed profitable" settings for any trading strategy, including this one. Market conditions are dynamic and vary significantly across different assets, timeframes, and periods.**
The profitability of any trading strategy depends on a multitude of factors, including:
* The specific asset being traded (e.g., Forex, Crypto, Stocks, Indices).
* The chosen timeframe (e.g., 1-minute, 1-hour, Daily).
* Current market volatility and prevailing market conditions (trending, ranging).
* Broker commissions, spreads, and slippage.
* Proper risk management.
**Finding Potentially Suitable Settings is a Process of Rigorous Backtesting and Optimization:**
1. **Start with Default Settings (or a Baseline):**
* This script defaults to having `VWAP Signals` OFF, and `ADX Filter` and `Volume Signals` ON. You can start here or enable VWAP signals for your initial tests.
2. **Systematic Backtesting:**
* Choose a specific asset and timeframe you are interested in.
* Use TradingView's Strategy Tester to run the script on historical data over a significant period.
3. **Iterate and Observe:**
* Adjust one parameter at a time and observe its effect on key performance metrics (e.g., Net Profit, Profit Factor, Max Drawdown, Win Rate, Number of Trades).
* **Example areas to explore (NOT recommendations, but a methodological approach):**
* **Enabling VWAP Signals:** See how performance changes.
* `vwapSignalSensitivity (%)`: Try values like 0.2%, 0.5%, 0.75%, 1.0%. Higher values mean the price needs to be further from VWAP.
* `adxThreshold`: Try values like 20, 25, 30. Higher values require a stronger trend.
* `volumeRatioThreshold`: Try values like 1.2, 1.5, 2.0. Higher values require stronger volume confirmation.
* `vwapSignalPeriod`, `adxPeriod`, `volumePeriod`: Shorter periods make indicators more responsive but potentially noisier; longer periods make them smoother but potentially laggier.
4. **Avoid Over-Optimization:**
* Be wary of settings that look "perfect" on one specific historical data set. They might be "curve-fitted" and may not perform well in live trading or on different data. Look for robustness – settings that perform reasonably well across slightly varied parameters or different (but similar) time periods.
5. **Consider the Number of Trades:**
* Extremely high or low numbers of trades can be problematic. Too few trades might not give a statistically significant result. Too many trades might rack up commissions.
6. **Forward Testing (Paper Trading):**
* Once you find settings that look promising in backtests, test them in a paper trading environment before risking real capital.
**This script is provided for educational and informational purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice. All trading involves a significant risk of loss. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Use this script and any trading strategy at your own risk.**

Momentum HUD (Enhanced with VWAP)*********** TRADERS YOU MUST DOUBLE CLICK THE MOMENTUM HUD TO SET WHAT YOU'RE TRADING, DROP DOWN FOR ETH SET FOR SPY SPX QQQ IWM NDX or OTHER STOCKS and below you PICK YOUR STOCK so it will form the 13 EMA 48 EMA 200 EMA and VWAP for you ***********
This one took all weekend, enjoy fam!!!!
The Momentum HUD (Enhanced with VWAP) is a powerful, all-in-one trading indicator designed to identify high-probability buy and sell signals for ETH-based indices (QQQ, SPY, SPX, IWM, NDX) or custom stocks like AAPL. It combines momentum, RSI, MACD, ADX, EMAs (13, 48, 200), VWAP, and volume analysis to generate actionable "CALLS" (buy) and "PUTS" (sell) signals. A customizable heads-up display (HUD) table provides real-time insights into key metrics, making it ideal for traders seeking a comprehensive technical analysis tool.
This indicator also supports support and resistance analysis indirectly through price interactions with EMAs and VWAP, which often act as dynamic support (e.g., 200 EMA) or resistance (e.g., VWAP rejection). Signals are filtered by an ATR-based volatility check and a cooldown period to reduce noise, ensuring robust trading decisions.
Key Features
Multi-Indicator Signals: Combines Momentum, RSI, MACD, ADX, EMAs, and VWAP for precise buy/sell signals.
Dynamic Support/Resistance: Uses EMA 13, EMA 48, EMA 200, and VWAP to highlight key price levels (e.g., price crossing EMA 13 for support or rejecting VWAP for resistance).
Customizable HUD Table: Displays real-time metrics (Momentum, RSI, MACD, ADX, EMA 200, VWAP) with bullish/bearish status and thresholds.
Symbol Flexibility: Supports ETH-based indices (QQQ, SPY, SPX, IWM, NDX) or any custom stock via user input.
Volatility Filter: Optional ATR filter ensures signals align with sufficient market volatility.
Cooldown Mechanism: Prevents over-signaling with a user-defined cooldown period.
Visual Cues: Plots EMAs, VWAP, buy/sell triangles, and labels for clear visualization.
Alert System: Configurable alerts for buy ("CALLS") and sell ("PUTS") signals.
How It Works
The indicator generates signals based on a confluence of conditions:
Buy Signals (CALLS): Triggered when price crosses above EMA 13 or bounces off VWAP, with positive momentum, RSI > 65, MACD bullish crossover, ADX > 25, price above EMA 200/VWAP, and high volume.
Sell Signals (PUTS): Triggered when price crosses below EMA 48 or rejects EMA 200/VWAP, with negative momentum, RSI < 35, MACD bearish crossover, ADX > 25, price below EMA 200/VWAP, and high volume.
Support/Resistance Context: EMA 200 and VWAP often act as support (e.g., ETH at $2,531–$2,600) or resistance (e.g., ETH at $2,695–$2,800), enhancing signal reliability.
HUD Table: Displays real-time values, status (Bullish/Bearish), and thresholds for all metrics, positioned at a user-defined chart location.
Usage Instructions
Add to Chart: Open TradingView’s Pine Editor, paste the script, and click “Add to Chart.”

Label Colors: Customize text colors for EMA 13, EMA 48, EMA 200, and VWAP labels (default: black).
Example Use Case
For ETH (via QQQ): On a daily chart, set symbol_choice to “QQQ (ETH).” Monitor for buy signals when ETH crosses above $2,600 (EMA 13) with RSI > 65 and high volume, confirming support. Sell signals may trigger if ETH rejects $2,695 (VWAP) with RSI < 35, indicating resistance.
For Stocks (e.g., AAPL): Set custom_symbol to “AAPL.” Look for buy signals when price bounces off EMA 200 (support) and sell signals when price rejects VWAP (resistance).
Notes
Timeframe: Works on any timeframe, with intraday defaulting to the chart’s period and others to daily.
Support/Resistance: Combine with a pivot-based script (e.g., pivot highs/lows) to explicitly plot static support/resistance levels alongside dynamic EMAs/VWAP.
Risk Management: Always use proper risk management, as indicators are not foolproof.
Performance: Best used in trending markets (ADX > 25) and with confirmation from other tools.

1. INDICATOR OVERVIEW & CORE FUNCTIONALITY
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The LOI indicator combines multiple VWAP calculations with moving averages across different timeframes. It's designed to show where institutional money is flowing and help identify key support and resistance levels that actually matter in today's markets.
Primary Functions:
- Multi-timeframe VWAP analysis (Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly)
- Advanced moving average integration (EMA, SMA, HMA)
- Real-time trend direction detection
- Institutional flow analysis
- Dynamic support/resistance identification
Target Users: Day traders, swing traders, position traders, and institutional analysts seeking comprehensive market structure analysis.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. VWAP FOUNDATION & HISTORICAL CONTEXT
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Historical Development: VWAP started in the 1980s when big institutional traders needed a way to measure if they were getting good fills on their massive orders. Unlike regular price averages, VWAP weighs each price by the volume traded at that level. This makes it incredibly useful because it shows you where most of the real money changed hands.
Mathematical Foundation: The basic math is simple: you take each price, multiply it by the volume at that price, add them all up, then divide by total volume. What you get is the true "average" price that reflects actual trading activity, not just random price movements.
Formula: VWAP = Σ(Price × Volume) / Σ(Volume)
Where typical price = (High + Low + Close) / 3
Institutional Behavior Patterns:
- When price trades above VWAP, institutions often look to sell
- When it's below, they're usually buying
- Creates natural support and resistance that you can actually trade against
- Serves as benchmark for execution quality assessment
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. MULTI-TIMEFRAME VWAP ANALYSIS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Core Innovation: Here's where LOI gets interesting. Instead of just showing daily VWAP like most indicators, it displays four different timeframes simultaneously:
**Daily VWAP Implementation**:
- Resets every morning at market open
- Provides clearest picture of intraday institutional sentiment
- Primary tool for day trading strategies
- Most responsive to immediate market conditions
**Weekly VWAP System**:
- Resets each Monday (or first trading day)
- Smooths out daily noise and volatility
- Perfect for swing trades lasting several days to weeks
- Captures weekly institutional positioning
**Monthly VWAP Analysis**:
- Resets at beginning of each calendar month
- Captures bigger institutional rebalancing at month-end
- Fund managers often operate on monthly mandates
- Significant weight in intermediate-term analysis
**Yearly VWAP Perspective**:
- Resets annually for full-year institutional view
- Shows long-term institutional positioning
- Where pension funds and sovereign wealth funds operate
- Critical for major trend identification
Confluence Zone Theory: The magic happens when multiple VWAP levels cluster together. These confluence zones often become major turning points because different types of institutional money all see value at the same price.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. MOVING AVERAGE INTEGRATION SYSTEM
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Multi-Type Implementation: The indicator includes three types of moving averages, each with its own personality and application:
**Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs)**:
- React quickly to recent price changes
- Displayed as solid lines for easy identification
- Optimal performance in trending market conditions
- Higher sensitivity to current price action
**Simple Moving Averages (SMAs)**:
- Treat all historical data points equally
- Appear as dashed lines in visual display
- Slower response but more reliable in choppy conditions
- Traditional approach favored by institutional traders
**Hull Moving Averages (HMAs)**:
- Newest addition to the system (dotted line display)
- Created by Alan Hull in 2005
- Solves classic moving average dilemma: speed vs. accuracy
- Manages to be both responsive and smooth simultaneously
Technical Innovation: Alan Hull's solution addresses the fundamental problem where moving averages are either too slow (missing moves) or too fast (generating false signals). HMAs achieve optimal balance through weighted calculation methodology.
Period Configuration:
- 5-period: Short-term momentum assessment
- 50-period: Intermediate trend identification
- 200-period: Long-term directional confirmation
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. TREND DIRECTION SIGNAL DETECTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Real-Time Momentum Analysis: One of LOI's best features is its real-time trend detection system. Next to each moving average, visual symbols provide immediate trend assessment:
Symbol System:
- ▲ Rising average (bullish momentum confirmation)
- ▼ Falling average (bearish momentum indication)
- ► Flat average (consolidation or indecision period)
Update Frequency: These signals update in real-time with each new price tick and function across all configured timeframes. Traders can quickly scan daily and weekly trends to assess alignment or conflicting signals.
Multi-Timeframe Trend Analysis:
- Simultaneous daily and weekly trend comparison
- Immediate identification of trend alignment
- Early warning system for potential reversals
- Momentum confirmation for entry decisions
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. VISUAL DESIGN & DISPLAY FEATURES
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Color Psychology Framework: The color scheme isn't random but based on psychological associations and trading conventions:
- **Blue Tones**: Institutional neutrality (VWAP levels)
- **Green Spectrum**: Growth and stability (weekly timeframes)
- **Purple Range**: Longer-term sophistication (monthly analysis)
- **Orange Hues**: Importance and attention (yearly perspective)
- **Red Tones**: User-defined significance (custom levels)
Adaptive Display Technology: The indicator automatically adjusts decimal places based on the instrument you're trading. High-priced stocks show 2 decimals, while penny stocks might show 8. This keeps the display incredibly clean regardless of what you're analyzing - no cluttered charts or overwhelming information overload.
Smart Labeling System: Advanced positioning algorithm automatically spaces all elements to prevent overlap, even during extreme zoom levels or multiple timeframe analysis. Every level stays clearly readable without any visual chaos disrupting your analysis.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. CUSTOM LEVEL INTEGRATION
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
User-Defined Level System: Beyond the calculated VWAP and moving average levels, traders can add custom horizontal lines at any price point for personalized analysis.
Strategic Applications:
- **Psychological Levels**: Round numbers, previous significant highs/lows
- **Technical Levels**: Fibonacci retracements, pivot points
- **Fundamental Targets**: Analyst price targets, earnings estimates
- **Risk Management**: Stop-loss and take-profit zones
Integration Features:
- Seamless incorporation with smart labeling system
- Custom color selection for visual organization
- Extension capabilities across all chart timeframes
- Maintains display clarity with existing indicators
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. REPAINT PROTECTION TECHNOLOGY
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Critical Trading Feature: This addresses one of the most significant issues in live trading applications. Most multi-timeframe indicators "repaint," meaning they display different signals when viewing historical data versus real-time analysis.
Protection Benefits:
- Ensures every displayed signal could have been traded when it appeared
- Eliminates discrepancies between historical and live analysis
- Provides realistic performance expectations
- Maintains signal integrity across chart refreshes
Configuration Options:
- **Protection Enabled**: Default setting for live trading
- **Protection Disabled**: Available for backtesting analysis
- User-selectable toggle based on analysis requirements
- Applies to all multi-timeframe calculations
Implementation Note: With protection enabled, signals may appear one bar later than without protection, but this ensures all signals represent actionable opportunities that could have been executed in real-time market conditions.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. PRACTICAL TRADING APPLICATIONS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**Day Trading Strategy**:
Focus on daily VWAP with 5-period moving averages. Look for bounces off VWAP or breaks through it with volume. Short-term momentum signals provide entry and exit timing.
**Swing Trading Approach**:
Weekly VWAP becomes your primary anchor point, with 50-period averages showing intermediate trends. Position sizing based on weekly VWAP distance.
**Position Trading Method**:
Monthly and yearly VWAP provide broad market context, while 200-period averages confirm long-term directional bias. Suitable for multi-week to multi-month holdings.
**Multi-Timeframe Confluence Strategy**:
The highest-probability setups occur when daily, weekly, and monthly VWAPs cluster together, especially when multiple moving averages confirm the same direction. These represent institutional consensus zones.
Risk Management Integration:
- VWAP levels serve as dynamic stop-loss references
- Multiple timeframe confirmation reduces false signals
- Institutional flow analysis improves position sizing decisions
- Trend direction signals optimize entry and exit timing
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10. SETUP & CONFIGURATION RECOMMENDATIONS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Initial Configuration: Start with default settings and adjust based on individual trading style and market focus. Short-term traders should emphasize daily and weekly timeframes, while longer-term investors benefit from monthly and yearly level analysis.
Transparency Optimization: The transparency settings allow clear price action visibility while maintaining level reference points. Most traders find 70-80% transparency optimal - it provides a clean, unobstructed view of price movement while maintaining all critical reference levels needed for analysis.
Integration Strategy: Remember that no indicator functions effectively in isolation. LOI provides excellent context for institutional flow and trend direction analysis, but should be combined with complementary analysis tools for optimal results.
Performance Considerations:
- Multiple timeframe calculations may impact chart loading speed
- Adjust displayed timeframes based on trading frequency
- Customize color schemes for different market sessions
- Regular review and adjustment of custom levels
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FINAL ANALYSIS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Competitive Advantage: What makes LOI different is its focus on where real money actually trades. By combining volume-weighted calculations with multiple timeframes and trend detection, it cuts through market noise to show you what institutions are really doing.
Key Success Factor: Understanding that different timeframes serve different purposes is essential. Use them together to build a complete picture of market structure, then execute trades accordingly.
The integration of institutional flow analysis with technical trend detection creates a comprehensive trading tool that addresses both short-term tactical decisions and longer-term strategic positioning.

2-Day Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP)This indicator extends TradingView’s built-in VWAP by calculating a volume-weighted average price over a continuous two-day window (yesterday + today), anchoring VWAP at the start of yesterday’s session and carrying it through to today’s close, but only plotting the segment that falls within the current trading session—yesterday’s data feeds into the calculation to ensure today’s VWAP reflects the prior session’s volume and price action, while the line drawn on your chart always begins at today’s session open.
Standard Deviation Bands: Optional ±1σ, ±2σ, and ±3σ envelopes, exactly as in the default VWAP, but based on the rolling two-day data.
Leslie's EMA Ribbon: 5/9/21 + VWAPEMA + VWAP Crossover Indicator with Alerts
This script blends three Exponential Moving Averages (5, 9, 21) with VWAP to identify momentum shifts and volume-confirmed trend signals. It’s optimized for the Daily timeframe, but also adaptable to shorter-term trading.
🔍 Why this combination?
EMAs provide fast and reliable trend signals:
- 5/9 EMA crossover → short-term shifts (more frequent)
- 9/21 EMA crossover → swing confirmation (less noise)
- VWAP adds volume context used by institutions for fair value tracking.
- 9EMA crossing VWAP confirms price action supported by volume.
Together, these tools offer a multi-layered view of market momentum — combining speed, confirmation, and conviction.
⚙️ Features:
Clean plots with dynamic labels on latest bar
Adjustable line weights for clarity
Alerts included for all crossovers:
- 5EMA / 9EMA
- 9EMA / 21EMA
- 9EMA / VWAP
✅ How to Use:
- Best on the Daily timeframe
- Use 5/9 as early signals, 9/21 for trend filtering, and 9/VWAP for volume-backed setups
- Turn on alerts to stay informed of key shifts without staring at charts
Adjustable Quad VWAPOverview
A powerful multi-timeframe VWAP indicator that displays four customizable rolling VWAPs with advanced features for comprehensive trend analysis and signal generation.
Key Features
🔧 Four Adjustable VWAPs
Fast VWAP: Default 7 days (1-365 adjustable)
Slow VWAP: Default 30 days (1-365 adjustable)
Medium VWAP: Default 90 days (1-365 adjustable)
Long VWAP: Default 365 days (1-365 adjustable)
VWAP Adaptive (RelVol-Adjusted)This indicator provides an Adaptive VWAP that adjusts volume weighting using RelVol (Relative Volume at Time), offering a more accurate and context-aware price reference during sessions with irregular volume behavior.
Classic VWAP calculates the average price weighted by raw volume, without considering the time of day. This becomes a serious limitation during major market events such as CPI releases, FOMC announcements, NFP, or large-cap earnings. These events often trigger massive volume spikes within one or two candles. As a result, the classic VWAP gets pulled toward those extreme prices and becomes permanently skewed for the rest of the session.
In such conditions, classic VWAP becomes unreliable. It no longer reflects fair value and often misleads traders relying on it for dynamic support, resistance, or reversion signals.
This Adaptive VWAP improves on that by using RelVol, which compares the current volume to the average volume seen at the same time over previous sessions. It gives more weight to price when volume is typical for that moment, and adjusts the influence when volume is statistically abnormal. This reduces the impact of isolated volume spikes and stabilizes the VWAP path, even in high-volatility environments.
For example, on SPY 1-minute or 5-minute charts during a CPI release, a massive spike in volume and price can occur within a single candle. Classic VWAP will immediately anchor itself to that spike. Adaptive VWAP using RelVol softens that effect and maintains a more realistic trajectory.
Key features:
- Adaptive VWAP weighted by time-adjusted Relative Volume (RelVol)
- Designed to maintain VWAP reliability during macroeconomic events
- Flexible anchoring: Session, Week, Month, Quarter, Earnings, etc.
- Optional display of Classic VWAP for comparison
- Up to 3 customizable deviation bands (standard deviation or percentage)
This tool is ideal for intraday traders who need a VWAP that remains usable and unbiased, even in volatile sessions. It adds robustness to VWAP-based strategies by incorporating time-sensitive volume normalization.
Retail Pain Index (RPIx) (RPIx) Retail Pain Index (DAFE)
See the Market’s Pain. Trade the Edge.
The Retail Pain Index (RPIx) is a next-generation volatility and sentiment tool designed to reveal the hidden moments when retail traders are most likely being squeezed, stopped out, or forced to capitulate. This is not just another oscillator—it’s a behavioral market scanner that quantifies “pain” as price rips away from the average entry zone, often marking the fuel for the next big move.
Why is RPIx so Unique?
Behavioral Volatility Engine:
RPIx doesn’t just track price or volume. It measures how far price is moving away from where the crowd has recently entered (using a rolling VWAP average), then normalizes this “distance” into a Z-score. The result? You see when the market is inflicting maximum pain on the most participants.
Dynamic, Intuitive Coloring:
The main RPIx line is purple in normal conditions, but instantly turns red when pain is extreme to the upside (+2.00 or higher) and green when pain is extreme to the downside (-2.00 or lower). This makes it visually obvious when the market is entering a “max pain” regime.
Threshold Lines for Clarity:
Dashed red and green lines at +2.00 and -2.00 Z-score levels make it easy to spot rare, high-pain events at a glance.
Signature Dashboard & Info Line:
Dashboard: A compact, toggleable panel in the top right of the indicator pane shows the current Z-score, threshold, and status—perfect for desktop users who want a quick read on market stress.
Info Line: For mobile or minimalist traders, a single-line info label gives you the essentials without cluttering your screen.
Inputs & Customization
Entry Cluster Lookback: Adjusts how many bars are used to calculate the “entry zone” (VWAP average). A higher value smooths the signal, a lower value makes it more responsive.
Pain Z-Score Threshold:
Sets the sensitivity for what counts as “extreme pain.” Default is ±2.00, but you can fine-tune this to match your asset’s volatility or your own risk appetite.
Show Dashboard / Show Compact Info Label:
Toggle these features on or off to fit your workflow and screen size.
How to utilize RPIx's awesomeness:
Extreme Readings = Opportunity:
When RPIx spikes above +2.00 (red) or below -2.00 (green), the market is likely running stops, liquidating weak hands, or forcing retail traders to capitulate. These moments often precede sharp reversals, trend accelerations, or volatility expansions.
Combine with Price Action:
Use RPIx as a confirmation tool for your existing strategy, or as a standalone alert for “pain points” where the crowd is most vulnerable.
Visual Edge:
The color-coded line and threshold levels make it easy to spot regime shifts and rare events—no more squinting at numbers or guessing when the market is about to snap.
Why RPIx?
Works on Any Asset, Any Timeframe:
Stocks, futures, crypto, forex—if there’s a crowd, there’s pain, and RPIx will find it.
Behavioral Alpha:
Most indicators lag. RPIx quantifies the psychological stress in the market, giving you a real-time edge over the herd.
Customizable, Clean, and Powerful:
Designed for both power users and mobile traders, with toggles for every workflow.
See the pain. Trade the edge.
Retail Pain Index: Because the market’s next move is written in the crowd’s discomfort.
For educational purposes only. Not financial advice. Always use proper risk management
Use with discipline. Trade your edge.

Money Flow Index + VWAP Trend FilterThis indicator combines the volume-weighted momentum analysis of the Money Flow Index (MFI) with the trend-filtering capabilities of the Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) to generate reliable buy and sell signals. By requiring MFI overbought/oversold conditions to align with the trend direction relative to VWAP, this indicator reduces false signals, making it ideal for trading on timeframes like 5-minute to 4-hour charts.
How It Works
The indicator uses two technical components to produce signals:
Money Flow Index (MFI) for Momentum Extremes:
The MFI, calculated over a default 14-period length, measures buying and selling pressure using price and volume data. A buy signal is triggered when MFI crosses above the oversold level (default: 20), indicating potential buying pressure, while a sell signal occurs when MFI crosses below the overbought level (default: 80), suggesting selling pressure.
Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) for Trend Direction:
The VWAP calculates the average price of an asset, weighted by volume, resetting at the start of each trading session (e.g., daily for stocks). It acts as a dynamic support/resistance level. A bullish trend is confirmed when the price is above the VWAP, and a bearish trend when the price is below the VWAP. This ensures MFI signals are filtered to align with the broader trend direction, plotted as a purple line on the chart.
Signal Generation
Signals are generated using the previous bar’s values to prevent repainting:
Buy Signal: The MFI crosses above the oversold level, and the price is above the VWAP (bullish trend). Displayed as a green upward triangle below the bar.
Sell Signal: The MFI crosses below the overbought level, and the price is below the VWAP (bearish trend). Displayed as a red downward triangle above the bar.

Moving Volume-Weighted Avg Price, % Channel, BBsThis script includes:
- Moving Volume-Weighted Average Price line.
- User-defined % band above and below, very useful for "breakout" signals, and mentally adjusting to the magnitude of price swings when viewing an automatic scale on the price axis.
- Volume-Weighted Bollinger Bands, which are more sensitive to volume.
More detail:
- This is like TV's basic VWAP in concept, except the major flaw in that is that it has reset periods that you can't override, and the volume is cumulative until the next hard reset. The 'reset' is OK for securities trading, that resets every day anyway. But not for crypto - and not if/when securities trading goes 24/7. Also, the denominator accumulating over the entire period is also *not* OK, because then what is shown means something different as the day progresses - which kind of makes it useless. In other words, it starts out very sensitive to volume, and gets progressively more numb to it as they day progresses, and starts flattening out.
- This fixes both problems, by using a user-definable moving window for the average. Essentially combining SMA with volume-weighting.
- You may also find an invaluable trading aid, in the % bands above and below.
- What can optionally be shown is standard deviation bands, aka Bollinger bands. The advantage over regular BB is that it's volume-weighted. Since it is already calculated on a moving average, the period for the standard deviation has been shortened by default, and the magnitude increased, to better approximate regular Bollinger Bands - but it's still more responsive to volume.
Multi-VWAP System🚀 Multi-VWAP System — Anchored VWAP & Deviation Bands
Overview
The Multi-VWAP System provides traders with a professional-grade approach to anchored VWAP analysis. Inspired by Brian Shannon's pioneering work on Anchored VWAP, this indicator automatically calculates and plots:
Current Session VWAP
Previous Session VWAP (also known as "2-Day VWAP")
High-of-Day (HOD) Anchored VWAP
Each VWAP can also display optional Standard Deviation Bands to highlight statistically significant deviations from the volume-weighted average price.
🔍 Why Anchored VWAP Matters
Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) is among the most critical institutional indicators, as it represents the average price paid for a stock adjusted by trading volume. This makes VWAP crucial for identifying fair value and significant areas of institutional activity.
Institutions utilize VWAP extensively to guide their execution algorithms. For instance, if price dips below a 2-day anchored VWAP (anchored to the previous session's open), many institutions interpret this as a discounted entry, potentially triggering large-scale buy programs. Conversely, sustained movement above VWAP signals strong buying pressure and bullish sentiment.
📌 Why Multiple Anchors?
Traders commonly anchor VWAPs at critical reference points:
Current Session VWAP:
Essential for day traders as a reference for intraday sentiment. Price action above this line generally indicates bullish sentiment, while price below signals bearish sentiment.
Previous Session (2-Day) VWAP:
Heavily used by institutions and swing traders, it provides insight into multi-session sentiment. Institutions commonly activate buy or sell programs based on whether price is trading at a premium or discount relative to this VWAP.
High-of-Day (HOD) VWAP:
Frequently used by momentum traders, this anchor captures sentiment after the most recent intraday high. Price above the HOD VWAP suggests sustained bullish momentum, while price below might signal weakening momentum.
🌟 Standard Deviation Bands
Each anchored VWAP in this indicator includes optional Standard Deviation Bands, highlighting statistical extremes. Traders use these bands to:
Identify potentially overextended moves (beyond +2σ or +3σ).
Gauge momentum strength (holding above +1σ).
Spot mean-reversion setups when price returns to VWAP after extreme moves.
🎨 Dynamic Background and Momentum Colorization
To visually highlight strength or weakness in price action relative to VWAP:
Dynamic Background Fill between Current and Previous VWAPs:
Green background appears when the Current VWAP is above the Previous VWAP and the linear regression slope (adjustable length) is positive, indicating bullish sentiment.
Red background appears when the Current VWAP is below the Previous VWAP and the slope is negative, indicating bearish sentiment.
No fill when conditions are mixed or momentum is uncertain.
Gold Fill above HOD VWAP:
When price action is above the High-of-Day VWAP and momentum (linear regression slope) is positive, a subtle gold shading appears, quickly highlighting bullish momentum.
⚙ Fully Customizable Settings
Session Times: Adjust session start and end times to match your specific market hours.
Standard Deviation Bands: Enable or disable each VWAP’s deviation bands individually and select how many bands (1σ, 2σ, or 3σ) you'd like to display.
Momentum Slope Length: Adjustable lookback for linear regression slope calculation—giving you full control of trend sensitivity.
🎯 Who Should Use This Indicator?
This indicator is perfect for:
Day Traders who want quick insights into intraday sentiment shifts.
Swing Traders tracking institutional footprints and seeking optimal entry/exit points.
Momentum Traders who rely on clearly visible momentum signals from HOD anchored VWAPs.
Institutional Traders and Professionals seeking sophisticated, institutionally-inspired VWAP analysis without manual anchoring.
📈 Summary of Features
✅ Automatic VWAP Anchors (Current Session, Previous Session, High-of-Day)
✅ Optional Standard Deviation Bands for each VWAP anchor
✅ Dynamic Background Coloring based on price action and momentum conditions
✅ Gold Momentum Highlight for quick bullish momentum identification above HOD VWAP
✅ Fully Customizable Inputs for precise personalization and flexibility
📢 Conclusion
The Multi-VWAP System isn't just another VWAP indicator. It's an institutional-level, dynamic, multi-dimensional analysis tool inspired by the work of Brian Shannon and leading institutional traders. It takes the guesswork out of anchoring and analysis, leaving you free to focus on identifying and executing high-probability trade setups.

Volume-Weighted Pivot BandsThe Volume-Weighted Pivot Bands are meant to be a dynamic, rolling pivot system designed to provide traders with responsive support and resistance levels that adapt to both price volatility and volume participation. Unlike traditional daily pivot levels, this tool recalculates levels bar-by-bar using a rolling window of volume-weighted averages, making it highly relevant for intraday traders, scalpers, swing traders, and algorithmic systems alike.
-- What This Indicator Does --
This tool calculates a rolling VWAP-based pivot level, and surrounds that central pivot with up to five upper bands (R1–R5) and five lower bands (S1–S5). These act as dynamic zones of potential resistance (R) and support (S), adapting in real time to price and volume changes.
Rather than relying on static session or daily data, this indicator provides continually evolving levels, offering more relevant levels during sideways action, trending periods, and breakout conditions.
-- How the Bands Are Calculated --
Pivot (VWAP Pivot):
The core of this system is a rolling Volume-Weighted Average Price, calculated over a user-defined window (default 20 bars). This ensures that each bar’s price impact is weighted by its volume, giving a more accurate view of fair value during the selected lookback.
Volume-Weighted Range (VW Range):
The highest high and lowest low over the same window are used to calculate the volatility range — this acts as a spread factor.
Support & Resistance Bands (S1–S5, R1–R5):
The bands are offset above and below the pivot using multiples of the VW Range:
R1 = Pivot + (VW Range × multiplier)
R2 = R1 + (VW Range × multiplier)
R3 = R2 + (VW Range x multiplier)
...
S1 = Pivot − (VW Range × multiplier)
S2 = S1 − (VW Range × multiplier)
S3 = S2 - (VW Range x multiplier)
...
You can control the multiplier manually (default is 0.25), to widen or tighten band spacing.
Smoothing (Optional):
To prevent erratic movements, you can optionally toggle on/off a simple moving average to the pivot line (default length = 20), providing a smoother trend base for the bands.
-- How to Use It --
This indicator can be used for:
Support and resistance identification:
Price often reacts to R1/S1, and the outer bands (R4/R5 or S4/S5) act as overshoot zones or strong reversal areas.
Trend context:
If price is respecting upper bands (R2–R3), the trend is likely bullish. If price is pressing into S3 or lower, it may indicate sustained selling pressure or a breakdown.
Volatility framing:
The distance between bands adjusts based on price range over the rolling window. In tighter markets, the bands compress — in volatile moves, they expand. This makes the indicator self-adaptive.
Mean reversion trades:
A move into R4/R5 or S4/S5 without continuation can be a sign of exhaustion — potential for reversal toward the pivot.
Alerting:
Built-in alerts are available for crosses of all major bands (R1–R5, S1–S5), enabling trade automation or scalp alerts with ease.
-- Visual Features --
Fuchsia Lines: Mark all Resistance (R1–R5) levels.
Lime Lines: Mark all Support (S1–S5) levels.
Gray Circle Line: Marks the rolling pivot (VWAP-based).
-- Customizable Settings --
Rolling Length: Number of bars used to calculate VWAP and VW Range.
Multiplier: Controls how wide the bands are spaced.
Smooth Pivot: Toggle on/off to smooth the central pivot.
Pivot Smoothing Length: Controls how many bars to average when smoothing is enabled.
Offset: Visually shift all bands forward/backward in time.
-- Why Use This Over Standard Pivots? --
Traditional pivots are based on previous session data and remain fixed. That’s useful for static setups, but may become irrelevant as price action evolves. In contrast:
This system updates every bar, adjusting to current price behavior.
It includes volume — a key feature missing from most static pivots.
It shows multiple bands, giving a full view of compression, breakout potential, or trend exhaustion.
-- Who Is This For? --
This tool is ideal for:
Day traders & scalpers who need relevant intraday levels.
