Institutional Confluence Mapper [JOAT]Institutional Confluence Mapper (ICM)
Introduction
The Institutional Confluence Mapper is an open-source multi-factor analysis tool that combines five analytical modules into a unified confluence scoring system. It synthesizes institutional trading concepts including Relative Rotation analysis, Smart Money flow detection, Liquidity zone mapping, Session-based timing, and Volatility regime classification.
Rather than relying on a single indicator, ICM evaluates market conditions through multiple lenses simultaneously, presenting a clear confluence score (0-100%) that reflects the alignment of various market factors.
This script is fully open-source under the Mozilla Public License 2.0.
Originality and Purpose
This indicator is NOT a random mashup of existing indicators. It is an original implementation that creates a unified institutional analysis framework:
Why Multiple Modules? Most retail traders struggle because they rely on single indicators that provide conflicting signals. Institutional traders evaluate markets through multiple frameworks simultaneously. ICM bridges this gap by providing a unified view of complementary analysis methods.
The Confluence Scoring System: Each module contributes to a weighted confluence score (0-100%). Scores above 65% indicate bullish confluence; below 35% indicates bearish confluence.
How Components Work Together:
RRG (Relative Rotation) determines macro bias - is this asset outperforming or underperforming its benchmark?
Institutional Flow confirms smart money activity - are institutions accumulating or distributing?
Volatility Regime determines strategy selection - trend-follow or mean-revert?
Liquidity Detection identifies key levels - where are the stop hunts happening?
Session Analysis optimizes timing - when should you trade?
The Five Core Modules
1. Relative Rotation Momentum Matrix (RRG)
Compares the current symbol against a benchmark (default: SPY) using the JdK RS-Ratio methodology with double-smoothed EMA. Assets rotate through four quadrants:
LEADING: Outperforming with positive momentum (strongest bullish)
WEAKENING: Outperforming but losing momentum
LAGGING: Underperforming with negative momentum (strongest bearish)
IMPROVING: Underperforming but gaining momentum
2. Institutional Flow Analysis
Analyzes volume patterns to detect smart money activity:
Volume Z-Score measures how unusual current volume is
Buy/Sell pressure estimation based on candle structure
Unusual volume detection highlights institutional activity
3. Volatility Regime System
Uses ATR percentile ranking to classify market conditions:
COMPRESSION: Low volatility (ATR < 20th percentile) - potential breakout
EXPANSION: High volatility (ATR > 80th percentile) - trending
TRENDING_BULL/BEAR: Directional trends based on EMA alignment
RANGING: Sideways consolidation
4. Liquidity Detection
Identifies institutional liquidity targets using swing point analysis:
Swing highs/lows are tracked and displayed as dashed lines
Purple dashed lines mark resistance/sell-side liquidity
Teal dashed lines mark support/buy-side liquidity
Gold diamonds appear when liquidity sweeps are detected (potential reversals)
5. Session Momentum Profiler
Tracks trading sessions based on your selected timezone:
Asian Session: 7PM - 4AM EST
London Session: 3AM - 12PM EST
New York Session: 9:30AM - 4PM EST
London/NY Overlap: 8AM - 12PM EST (peak liquidity)

Nexus Momentum Flow [JOAT]
Nexus Momentum Flow - ADX-Based Trend Strength Analysis
Introduction and Purpose
Nexus Momentum Flow is an open-source oscillator indicator that combines the ADX (Average Directional Index) with directional movement indicators (+DI/-DI) to create a comprehensive trend strength and direction analysis tool. The core problem this indicator solves is that ADX alone tells you trend strength but not direction, while +DI/-DI alone tells you direction but not strength. Traders need both pieces of information together.
This indicator addresses that by combining ADX strength classification with directional bias into a single confluence score, making it easy to identify when strong trends exist and which direction they favor.
Why These Components Work Together
1. ADX (Average Directional Index) - Measures trend strength regardless of direction. Values above 25 indicate trending; below 20 indicate ranging.
2. +DI (Positive Directional Indicator) - Measures upward price movement strength.
3. -DI (Negative Directional Indicator) - Measures downward price movement strength.
4. Confluence Score - Combines ADX strength with DI bias to create a single actionable metric.
The combination works because:
ADX filters out ranging markets where DI crossovers produce whipsaws
DI relationship provides direction when ADX confirms trend
Confluence score simplifies the analysis into one number
How the Calculation Works
float directionBias = diPlus - diMinus
float confluenceScore = (adx / 100) * directionBias
The confluence score is positive when +DI > -DI (bullish) and negative when -DI > +DI (bearish), with magnitude scaled by ADX strength.
Trend State Classification
EXTREME - ADX > 50 (very strong trend)
STRONG - ADX 35-50 (strong trend)
TRENDING - ADX 25-35 (moderate trend)
RANGING - ADX < 25 (no clear trend)
Dashboard Information
Status - Current trend state (EXTREME/STRONG/TRENDING/RANGING)
Direction - BULLISH or BEARISH based on DI relationship
ADX - Current ADX value
DI Bias - Difference between +DI and -DI
Confluence - Combined score with directional context
How to Use This Indicator
For Trend Following:
1. Wait for ADX to show TRENDING or higher
2. Check direction matches your trade bias
3. Enter on pullbacks when confluence remains positive/negative
4. Exit when ADX drops to RANGING
For Avoiding Whipsaws:
1. Do not trade DI crossovers when ADX shows RANGING
2. Only trust directional signals when ADX confirms trend
3. Use RANGING periods for mean-reversion strategies instead
For Trend Exhaustion:
1. Watch for EXTREME ADX readings
2. Extreme trends often precede reversals
3. Consider taking profits when ADX reaches extreme levels
Input Parameters
ADX Length (14) - Period for ADX calculation
DI Length (14) - Period for directional indicators
ADX Smoothing (14) - Smoothing period for ADX
Trend Threshold (25) - ADX level for trend confirmation
Strong Threshold (35) - ADX level for strong trend
Extreme Threshold (50) - ADX level for extreme trend
Timeframe Recommendations
Daily/4H: Best for swing trading trend analysis
1H: Good for intraday trend following
15m: More signals but requires faster reaction
Limitations
ADX is a lagging indicator - trends are confirmed after they start
DI crossovers can whipsaw even with ADX filter
Works best in markets that trend clearly
May miss early trend entries due to confirmation requirement

Eclipse Multi-Oscillator [JOAT]Eclipse Multi-Oscillator - Unified Momentum Confluence System
Introduction and Purpose
Eclipse Multi-Oscillator is an open-source indicator that combines four classic oscillators (RSI, Stochastic, CCI, and Williams %R) into a single unified view with confluence detection. The core problem this indicator solves is oscillator disagreement: traders often see RSI oversold while Stochastic is neutral, or CCI overbought while Williams %R is mid-range. This creates confusion about the true momentum state.
This indicator addresses that by displaying all four oscillators together and counting how many agree on overbought or oversold conditions, providing a clear confluence score that cuts through the noise.
Why These Four Oscillators Work Together
Each oscillator measures momentum differently, and their combination provides a more complete picture:
1. RSI (Relative Strength Index) - Measures the magnitude of recent price changes. Best at identifying momentum exhaustion.
2. Stochastic - Compares closing price to the high-low range. Best at identifying where price is within its recent range.
3. CCI (Commodity Channel Index) - Measures price deviation from statistical mean. Best at identifying unusual price movements.
4. Williams %R - Similar to Stochastic but inverted. Provides confirmation of Stochastic readings.
When 3 or more of these oscillators agree on overbought or oversold, the signal is significantly more reliable than any single oscillator alone.
How Confluence Scoring Works
The indicator counts how many oscillators are in extreme territory:
int obCount = 0
if rsi > rsiOB
obCount += 1
if stochK > stochOB
obCount += 1
if cci > cciOB
obCount += 1
if willRScaled > stochOB
obCount += 1
bool strongOverbought = obCount >= 3
bool strongOversold = osCount >= 3
The confluence score ranges from -4 (all oversold) to +4 (all overbought), with 0 being neutral.
Signal Types
Strong Oversold - 3+ oscillators below oversold threshold (potential bounce)
Strong Overbought - 3+ oscillators above overbought threshold (potential pullback)
OB/OS Exit - RSI leaving extreme zone with Stochastic confirmation (potential reversal)
Divergence - Price makes new high/low while RSI does not (potential reversal warning)
Dashboard Information
RSI/Stoch K/CCI/Will %R - Current values with zone status (OB/OS/MID)
Confluence - Overall bias (STRONG OS, STRONG OB, Lean Bull/Bear, Neutral)
OB Count - How many oscillators are overbought (0-4)
OS Count - How many oscillators are oversold (0-4)
How to Use This Indicator
For Reversal Trading:
1. Wait for Strong Oversold (3+ oscillators agree)
2. Look for bullish candlestick pattern or support level
3. Enter long with stop below recent low
4. Take profit when confluence returns to neutral or overbought
For Trend Confirmation:
1. Check confluence direction matches your trade bias
2. Avoid longs when confluence is strongly overbought
3. Avoid shorts when confluence is strongly oversold
For Divergence Trading:
1. Watch for "D" labels indicating RSI divergence
2. Bullish divergence at support = potential long
3. Bearish divergence at resistance = potential short
Input Parameters
RSI Length (14) - Period for RSI calculation
Stochastic K/D Length (14/3) - Periods for Stochastic
CCI Length (20) - Period for CCI
Williams %R Length (14) - Period for Williams %R
OB/OS Thresholds - Customizable levels for each oscillator
Timeframe Recommendations
15m-1H: Good for intraday momentum analysis
4H-Daily: Best for swing trading confluence
Very short timeframes may produce noisy signals
Limitations
All oscillators can remain in extreme territory during strong trends
Confluence does not predict direction, only identifies extremes
Divergence detection is simplified and may miss some patterns
Works best in ranging or moderately trending markets

Cosmic Volume Analyzer [JOAT]
Cosmic Volume Analyzer - Astrophysics Edition
Overview
Cosmic Volume Analyzer is an open-source oscillator indicator that applies astrophysics-inspired concepts to volume analysis. It classifies volume into buy/sell categories, calculates volume flow, detects accumulation/distribution phases, identifies climax volume events, and uses gravitational and stellar mass analogies to visualize volume dynamics.
What This Indicator Does
The indicator calculates and displays:
Volume Classification - Categorizes each bar as CLIMAX_BUY, CLIMAX_SELL, HIGH_BUY, HIGH_SELL, NORMAL_BUY, or NORMAL_SELL
Volume Flow - Percentage showing buy vs sell pressure over a lookback period
Buy/Sell Volume - Separated volume based on candle direction
Accumulation/Distribution - Phase detection using Money Flow Multiplier
Volume Oscillator - Fast vs slow volume EMA comparison
Gravitational Pull - Volume-weighted price attraction metric
Stellar Mass Index - Volume ratio combined with price momentum
Black Hole Detection - Identifies extremely low volume periods (liquidity voids)
Supernova Events - Detects extreme volume with extreme price movement
Orbital Cycles - Sine-wave based cyclical visualization
How It Works
Volume classification uses volume ratio and candle direction:
classifyVolume(series float vol, series float close, series float open) =>
float avgVol = ta.sma(vol, 20)
float volRatio = avgVol > 0 ? vol / avgVol : 1.0
if volRatio > 1.5
if close > open
classification := "CLIMAX_BUY"
else
classification := "CLIMAX_SELL"
else if volRatio > 1.2
// HIGH_BUY or HIGH_SELL
else
// NORMAL_BUY or NORMAL_SELL
Volume flow separates buy and sell volume over a period:
calculateVolumeFlow(series float vol, series float close, simple int period) =>
float currentBuyVol = close > open ? vol : 0.0
float currentSellVol = close < open ? vol : 0.0
// Accumulate in buffers
float flow = (buyVolume - sellVolume) / totalVol * 100
Accumulation/Distribution uses the Money Flow Multiplier:
float mfm = ((close - low) - (high - close)) / (high - low)
float mfv = mfm * vol
float adLine = ta.cum(mfv)
if adLine > adEMA and ta.rising(adLine, 3)
phase := "ACCUMULATION"
else if adLine < adEMA and ta.falling(adLine, 3)
phase := "DISTRIBUTION"
Gravitational pull uses volume-weighted price distance:
gravitationalPull(series float vol, series float price, simple int period) =>
float massCenter = ta.vwma(price, period)
float distance = math.abs(price - massCenter)
float mass = vol / ta.sma(vol, period)
float gravity = distance > 0 ? mass / (distance * distance) : 0.0
Signal Generation
Signals are generated based on volume conditions:
Buy Climax: Volume exceeds 2 standard deviations above average on bullish candle
Sell Climax: Volume exceeds 2 standard deviations above average on bearish candle
Strong Buy Flow: Volume flow exceeds positive threshold (default 45%)
Strong Sell Flow: Volume flow exceeds negative threshold (default -45%)
Supernova: Volume 3x average AND price change 3x average
Black Hole: Volume 2 standard deviations below average
