Trademania - PVSRA IndicatorTrademania - PVSRA Indicator
The Trademania - PVSRA Indicator is based on a proven MT4 indicator suite that has been in use since 2013. Over time, it has been expanded with additional features and tools. Originally developed for the Forex market, it also works well for cryptocurrencies, stocks, and other assets. The goal of this indicator is to combine classic chart analysis with PVSRA analysis, allowing for a clean mixed chart analysis. Traders gain access to a wide range of important information and can use it to form their trading assumptions. The indicator is designed to make it as simple as possible: identifying price levels at the breakout of key support/resistance, for confirmations above/below an imbalance, or recognizing and validating standard structures.
Important: This indicator is designed to be used across all timeframes. It works equally well for scalping on lower timeframes and for larger timeframes, such as spot trading on the 4H or daily chart.
The following core features are available:
- PVSRA Candles
- Dynamic Zones for PVSRA Candles (Imbalance)
- Market sessions with high/low points
- Integrated EMAs (daily, weekly, higher time frames)
- Fully customizable EMAs
- Pivot points with mid/50% level
- Price ranges from yesterday and last week
- Average daily range (also available for weekly and monthly)
- Psychological levels (for Forex)
- Daily open
- High/Low Point of Control (POC) indicators for wicks and candle bodies
- WIL (Weekly Interest Level) - High/Low of the Asian session
- On-chart labels for nearly all elements
Key Features:
- PVSRA, integrated POC levels, and WIL levels distinguish this indicator.
- Integrated EMAs and the daily, weekly, high time frame EMAs can be supplemented or replaced by custom EMAs for maximum flexibility.
Special Feature:
- Lite Mode for better visibility and simplified chart analysis.
Instructions and Notes
PVSRA Candles
Display volume or tick volume on the chart.
- Candles with more than 200% average volume of the last 10 candles, where the product of candle spread and volume is greater than the last 10 candles/timeframes, are shown in green (bullish) and red (bearish).
- Blue and purple candles show the same with 150% average volume of the last 10 candles.
**Note:** To obtain valid information, the trading volume should be as large as possible. If you're viewing the chart of an exchange with low trading volume, you can use the PVSRA override to display the volume from another exchange. For example, you can view the Phemex chart but display the tick/volume of the Binance chart as PVSRA/Vector candles.
Dynamic Zones for PVSRA Candles (Imbalance)
Zones that match the color of the respective vector candle display imbalance on the chart.
- In PVSRA analysis, it is assumed that such imbalances will be revisited and corrected. It can be customized whether this should happen with candle wicks or just the candle bodies.
Market Sessions with High/Low Points (DST)
Relevant market sessions: Sydney/NZX, Tokyo, Hong Kong, EU, New York, as well as the Brinks sessions pre EU/NY, are marked with high/low points and labeled on the chart.
- In PVSRA/Mixed analysis, these represent important liquidity zones of the individual trading sessions, often serving as key support/resistance levels.
WIL (Weekly Interest Level) - High/Low of the Asian Session
The new WIL levels represent the market open/Asian session of the new trading week: Sydney open to Hong Kong close.
- This forms an important price range for the trading week and is always a key breakout zone or rejection area in mixed analysis. Additional liquidity is needed to break through these levels.
- Higher effort against the start of the week – an imbalance (above/below).
High/Low Point of Control (POC) Indicators for Wicks and Candle Bodies
Additionally, the indicator includes pivot-based POC markers at key highs/lows on the chart.
- A POC is generated from the candle footprint (1000 resolution) and displayed on the chart.
- **Note:** If the POC is in a wick, it is shown as a line; if the POC is only in the candle body, it is displayed in small text.
- In mixed analysis, POCs in volume-heavy wicks are always a key indication of price levels that will be revisited and a potential enhancer for a wick-fill upwards or downwards.
EMA/Pivot Points/Psychological Levels Classic/Average Ranges:
Daily/ADR - Weekly/AWR / High/Low values for day/week, as well as the daily open of the current trading day, form the foundation of the indicator.
- Base structures that account for imbalance must break certain price levels to confirm or invalidate a previous movement (bullish or bearish).
- 13/50/200/800 EMA retrace: Breaking these in either direction without addressing an imbalance on the opposite side requires confirmation after the break.
- Pivot-level trading operates on the same principle.
- **Note:** Pivot levels in this indicator have additional M-levels, which represent 50% markers to provide better insights into potential retraces or upward moves.
- For example: Breaking M1, retracing, and confirming at M1 with a target at M2.
To recognize a standard 3-level rise or retrace scenario in mixed analysis, as well as a potential extended chart progression, these levels are essential.
**Note:** Average ranges such as High/Low ADR are particularly important levels where interruptions are expected. Profit-taking, long/short, is common at these points, independent of standard structures. This also applies to the high/low levels of the last trading day and the weekly versions of these levels.
The daily open helps identify possible SPOT/Futures gaps (depending on the asset, such as a missing futures market over the weekend: NAS/DAX).
Important:
The Lite Mode is designed to help traders reduce the chart to essential core functions (PVSRA/EMA/WIL/Psy/Daily Open/Hi-Lo) to apply classic TA effectively and strengthen a mixed analysis or challenge certain assumptions regarding confirmation and imbalance.
**Note:** It is recommended to additionally use a MACD indicator to identify potential trends and momentum.
- For example, a positive MACD trend supporting a 50 EMA breakout with a target of the 200 EMA under positive imbalance (standard mixed pattern).
To cater to personal preferences or trading strategies, it is possible to add custom EMA values to the indicator without the need for a second or third separate indicator.
All functions are fully customizable within the indicator settings.
