Dynamic Deviation Levels [BigBeluga]Dynamic Deviation Levels is an innovative indicator designed to analyze price deviations relative to a smoothed midline. It provides traders with visual cues for overbought/oversold zones, price momentum, levels through labeled deviations and gradient candle coloring.
🔵Key Features:
Smoothed Midline:
A central line calculated as a smoothed median of the price source, serving as the baseline for price deviation analysis.
Dynamic Deviation Levels:
- Three deviation levels are plotted above and below the midline, with labels (1, 2, 3, -1, -2, -3) marking significant price movements.
- Helps traders identify overbought and oversold market conditions.
Heat-Colored Candles:
- Candle colors shift in intensity based on the deviation level, with four gradient shades for both upward and downward movements.
- Quickly highlights market extremes or stable zones.
Interactive Color Scale:
- A gradient scale at the bottom right of the chart visually represents deviation values.
- A triangle marker indicates the current price deviation in real time.
Optional Deviation Levels Display:
- Traders can enable all dynamic levels on the chart to visualize support and resistance areas dynamically.
🔵Usage and Benefits:
Identify Overbought/Oversold Zones: Use labeled deviation levels and heat-colored candles to spot stretched market conditions.
Track Trend Reversals and Momentum: Monitor price interactions with deviation levels for potential trend continuation or reversal signals.
Real-Time Deviation Insights: Leverage the color scale and triangle marker for live deviation tracking and actionable insights.
Map Dynamic Support and Resistance: Enable dynamic levels to highlight key areas where price reactions are likely to occur.
Dynamic Deviation Levels is an indispensable tool for traders aiming to combine price dynamics, momentum analysis, and visual clarity in their trading strategies.

Intraday Volatility Bands [Honestcowboy]The Intraday Volatility Bands aims to provide a better alternative to ATR in the calculation of targets or reversal points.
How are they different from ATR based bands?
While ATR and other measures of volatility base their calculations on the previous bars on the chart (for example bars 1954 to 1968). The volatility used in these bands measure expected volatility during that time of the day.
Why would you take this approach?
Markets behave different during certain times of the day, also called sessions.
Here are a couple examples.
Asian Session (generally low volatility)
London Session (bigger volatility starts)
New York Session (overlap of New York with London creates huge volatility)
Generally when using bands or channel type indicators intraday they do not account for the upcoming sessions. On London open price will quickly spike through a bollinger band and it will take some time for the bands to adjust to new volatility.
This script will show expected volatility targets at the start of each new bar and will not adjust during the bar. It already knows what price is expected to do at this time of day.
Script also plots arrows when price breaches either the top or bottom of the bands. You can also set alerts for when this occurs. These are non repainting as the script knows the level at start of the bar and does not change.
🔷 CALCULATION
Think of this script like an ATR but instead it uses past days data instead of previous bars data. Charts below should visualise this more clearly:
The scripts measure of volatility is based on a simple high-low.
The script also counts the number of bars that exist in a day on your current timeframe chart. After knowing that number it creates the matrix used in it's calculations and data storage.
See how it works perfectly on a lower timeframe chart below:
Getting this right was the hardest part, check the coding if you are interested in this type of stuff. I commented every step in the coding process.
🔷 SETTINGS
Every setting of the script has a tooltip but I provided a breakdown here:
