Dollar Volume + SD [ZTD]### So, What's the Big Deal with SD Dollar Volume?
TL:DR
What you see:
1. $ Volume = (Price * Volume) / 1M (we divide it by 1M by default so you don't have to look at 12 digits but you can select between 100k/1M/10M)
2. User selected M.A. period with difference sources
3. Up to 4 Standard Deviation from that M.A.
4. Color coded (explained below)
That's it, no fancy useless multi color rainbows. Functional, bringing depth and clarity to your analysis based on reality not optical illusion.
--------------
The Long version
You know how we've always looked at volume? It's a classic, but it's got a blind spot. A million shares traded when a stock is at $10 is a completely different ballgame from a million shares traded when it's at $200. The first is $10M in action; the second is $200M. Traditional volume treats them the same, but they are not the same story.
That's the whole idea behind the **Dollar Volume Standard Deviation (SD $VVOLUME)** indicator. Instead of just counting shares, it tracks the **actual dollar amount** ( also refered as Dollar Volume) changing hands. This gives you a much clearer picture of the real financial power behind a price move. It helps you see when the "big money" is truly stepping in or backing off.
Think about it this way: after a 20% drop on earnings, you might see a 10% volume increase and think, "Wow, buyers are stepping in!" But if you look at the *value traded*, it might actually be lower than the day before because the share price is so much cheaper. This indicator cuts through that noise.
What about that smaller stock you bought that suddenly doubles in prices in a matter of months. Do you really thing the volume you are looking at carries any meaning anymore?
On longer time frame? Think about Volume traded vs Value Traded on NVDA for example. Looking at volume alone on those charts is absolutely meaningless. I even wonder why volume alone ever existed in the first place as an indicator.
### How to Use It in Your Trading
This isn't just theory; here’s how you can actually use it to make better decisions.
#### Reading the Indicator
The indicator is designed to be visual and intuitive. Here’s what you're looking at:
* **The Bars:** Each bar on the indicator represents the total dollar value traded during that period. Bigger bar, more money moved.
* **The White Line:** This is your baseline—the moving average of the value traded. It shows you the normal level of money flow for that stock.
* **Bar Colors (The Important Part):**
* **Direction:** **Green** means the stock closed higher in that period. **Red** means it closed lower. Simple enough.
* **Intensity:** This is the real magic. The brightness or intensity of the color tells you how significant that money flow was. A dull, faded bar means the value traded was pretty average. A **bright, intense bar** means the value was way above normal (usually 1 or 2 standard deviations away from the average). *That's* when you need to pay attention.
#### Actionable Signals for Your Strategy
* **Spotting High-Conviction Moves:** When you see a bright, intense red or green bar that towers over the others, that's a signal of major conviction. Big players are making a decisive move, either buying up everything in sight or dumping their positions. This is your cue that something significant is happening.
* **Confirming a Trend's Strength:** Are you in a strong uptrend? Look for a consistent pattern of bright green bars. This tells you that significant capital is flowing in to support the rising price. It's confirmation that the trend has legs.
* **Catching a Weakening Trend (Divergence):** This is a powerful one. Imagine the stock price is grinding out new highs, but on the SD
V
VOLUME
indicator, the bars are getting smaller and less intense. That's a major red flag. It shows that even though the price is inching up, the real money isn't following. There's no conviction, and the trend could be about to reverse.
* **Gauging Liquidity:** If the bars are consistently low and dull, it's a sign that interest in the stock is drying up. It's a good way to spot illiquid conditions and avoid getting trapped in a stock that's hard to get out of.
Ultimately, SD SEED_YASHALGO_NSE_BREADTH:VOLUME helps you see the market from a different angle. It's not just about the noise of shares being traded; it's about following the money.

Options Strategy V2.0📈 Options Strategy V2.0 – Intraday Reversal-Resilient Momentum System
Overview:
This strategy is designed specifically for intraday SPY, TSLA, MSFT, etc. options trading (0DTE or 1DTE), using high-probability signals derived from a confluence of technical indicators: EMA crossovers, RSI thresholds, ATR-based risk control, and volume spikes. The strategy aims to capture strong directional moves while avoiding overtrading, thanks to a built-in cooldown logic and optional time/session filters.
⚙️ Core Concept
The strategy executes trades only in the direction of the prevailing trend, determined by short- and long-term Exponential Moving Averages (EMA). Entry signals are generated when the Relative Strength Index (RSI) confirms momentum in the direction of the trend, and volume spikes suggest institutional activity.
To increase adaptability and user control, it includes a highly customizable parameter set for both long and short entries independently.
📌 Key Features
✅ Trend-Following Logic
Long entries are only allowed when EMA(short) > EMA(long)
Short entries are only allowed when EMA(short) < EMA(long)
✅ RSI Confirmation
Long: Requires RSI crossover above a configurable threshold
Short: Requires RSI crossunder below a configurable threshold
Optional rejection filters: Entry blocked above/below specific RSI extremes
✅ Volume Spike Filter
Confirms institutional participation by comparing current volume to an average multiplied by a user-defined factor.
✅ ATR-Based Risk Management
Both Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) are dynamically calculated using ATR × a multiplier.
TP/SL ratio is fully configurable.
✅ Cooldown Control
After every trade, the system waits for a set number of bars before allowing new entries.
This prevents overtrading and increases signal quality.
Optionally, cooldown is ignored for reversal trades, ensuring the system can react immediately to a confirmed trend change.
✅ Candle Body Filter (Noise Control)
Avoids trades on candles with too small bodies relative to wicks (often noise or indecision candles).
✅ VWAP Confirmation (Optional)
Ensures price is trading above VWAP for long entries, or below for short entries.
✅ Time & Session Filters
Trades only during regular market hours (09:30–16:00 EST).
No-trade zone (e.g., 14:15–15:45 EST) to avoid low-liquidity traps or late-day whipsaws.
✅ End-of-Day Auto Close
All open positions are force-closed at 15:55 EST, protecting against overnight risk (especially relevant for 0DTE options).
📊 Visual Aids
EMA plots show trend direction
VWAP line provides real-time mean-reversion context
Stop Loss and Take Profit lines appear dynamically with each trade
Alerts notify of entry signals and exit triggers
🔧 Customization Panel
Nearly every element of the strategy can be tailored:
EMA lengths (short and long, for both sides)
RSI thresholds and length
ATR length, SL multiplier, and TP/SL ratio
Volume spike sensitivity
Minimum EMA distance filter
Candle body ratio filter
Session restrictions
Cooldown logic (duration + reversal exception)
This makes the strategy extremely versatile, allowing both conservative and aggressive configurations depending on the trader’s profile and the market context.
📌 Example Use Case: SPY Options (0DTE or 1DTE)
This system was designed and tested specifically for SPY and other intraday options trading, where:
Delta is around 0.50 or higher
Trades are short-lived (often 1–5 candles)
You aim to trade 1–3 signals per day, filtering out weak entries
🚫 Important Notes
It is not a scalping strategy; it relies on confirmed breakouts with trend support
No pyramiding or re-entries without cooldown to preserve risk integrity
Should be used with real-time alerts and manual broker execution
📈 Alerts Included
📈 Long Entry Signal
📉 Short Entry Signal
⚠️ Auto-closed all positions at 15:55 EST
✅ Proven Settings – Real Trades + Backtest Results
The current version of the strategy includes the optimal settings I’ve arrived at through extensive backtesting, as well as 3 months of real trading with consistent profitability. These results reflect real-world execution under live market conditions using 0DTE SPY options, with disciplined trade management and risk control.
🧠 Final Thoughts
Options Strategy V2.0 is a robust, highly tunable intraday strategy that blends momentum, trend-following, and volume confirmation. It is ideal for disciplined traders focused on SPY or other 0DTE/1DTE options, and it includes guardrails to reduce false signals and improve execution timing.
Perfect for those who seek precision, flexibility, and risk-defined setups—not blind automation.

ZigZag Based RSIDescription
ZigZag Trend RSI (ZZ-RSI) is an advanced momentum indicator that combines ZigZag-based trend detection with a trend-adjusted RSI to deliver smarter overbought and oversold signals. Unlike traditional RSI that reacts purely to price movement, this indicator adapts its sensitivity based on the prevailing trend structure identified via the ZigZag pattern.
By dynamically adjusting RSI thresholds according to market direction, ZZ-RSI helps filter out false signals and aligns RSI readings with broader trend context—crucial for trend-following strategies, counter-trend entries, and volatility-based timing.
Core Components
ZigZag Pattern Recognition:
Identifies significant swing highs and lows based on price deviation (%) and pivot sensitivity (length). The most recent pivot determines the prevailing trend direction:
🟢 Bullish: last swing is a higher high
🔴 Bearish: last swing is a lower low
⚪ Neutral: no recent significant movement
Trend-Weighted RSI:
Modifies traditional RSI input by emphasizing price changes in the direction of the trend:
In bull trends, upside moves are magnified.
In bear trends, downside moves are emphasized.
Dynamic RSI Zones:
Overbought and Oversold thresholds adapt to the trend:
In uptrends: higher OB and slightly raised OS → tolerate stronger rallies
In downtrends: lower OS and slightly reduced OB → accommodate stronger sell-offs
In neutral: default OB/OS values apply
How to Use
✅ Entries (Reversal or Mean Reversion Traders):
Look for oversold signals (green triangle) in downtrends or neutrals to catch potential reversals.
Look for overbought signals (red triangle) in uptrends or neutrals to fade momentum.
Confirm with price action or volume for higher conviction.
📈 Trend Continuation (Momentum or Trend-Followers):
Use the trend direction label (Bullish / Bearish / Neutral) to align your trades with the broader move.
Combine with moving averages or price structure for entry timing.
Avoid counter-trend signals unless confirmed by divergence or exhaustion.
🧠 Signal Interpretation Table (top right of chart):
Trend: Indicates the current market direction.
RSI: Real-time trend-adjusted RSI value.
Signal: OB/OS/Neutral classification.
Customization Options
ZigZag Length / Deviation %:
Adjust pivot sensitivity and filter out minor noise.
RSI Length:
Controls how fast RSI responds to trend-adjusted price.
Color Settings:
Personalize visual cues for trend direction and OB/OS backgrounds.
Alerts Included
📢 Overbought/oversold conditions
🔄 Trend reversals (bullish or bearish shift)
These alerts are ideal for automated strategies, mobile notifications, or algorithmic workflows.
Ideal For
Traders seeking smarter RSI signals filtered by market structure
Trend-followers and swing traders looking for reliable reversals
Those frustrated with false OB/OS signals in volatile or trending markets
Best Practices
Use in confluence with price structure, trendlines, or S/R levels.
For intraday: consider lowering ZigZag Length and RSI Length.
For higher timeframes: use higher deviation % and smoother RSI to reduce noise.
ADR Plots + OverlayADR Plots + Overlay
This tool calculates and displays Average Daily Range (ADR) levels on your chart, giving traders a quick visual reference for expected daily price movement. It plots guide levels above and below the daily open and shows how much of the day's typical range has already been covered—all in one interactive table and on-chart overlay.
What It Does
ADR Calculation:
Uses daily high-low differences over a user-defined period (default 14 days), smoothed via RMA, SMA, EMA, or WMA to calculate the average daily range.
Projected Levels:
Plots four reference levels relative to the current day's open price:
+100% ADR: Open + ADR
+50% ADR: Open + 50% of ADR
−50% ADR: Open − 50% of ADR

Key Session LevelsKey Session Levels - Indicator Guide
Created by: MecarderoAurum
Why This Indicator Exists: An Overview
The "Key Session Levels" indicator is a comprehensive tool for day traders that automatically plots the most critical price levels from the current premarket and the previous two full trading days. These levels are watched by countless traders and often act as significant areas of support and resistance.
This indicator provides a clear, objective map of these key zones, helping traders anticipate potential turning points, identify areas of confluence, and make more informed trading decisions without having to manually draw and manage these lines every day.
Features & How to Use Them
This indicator plots several types of important historical levels on your chart. Each one is fully customizable.
1. Premarket Levels (PMH / PML)
What they are: The highest (PMH) and lowest (PML) prices reached during the current day's premarket session (04:00 - 09:30 ET).
Why they matter: The premarket high and low are the first significant levels established for the trading day. They often act as initial support or resistance once the market opens.
How to use them: In the settings under "Premarket Levels," you can toggle the visibility of the PMH and PML, and customize their color, line style, and width.
2. Prior Day Levels (PDH / PDL / PDM / PDP)
What they are: The key price points from the previous full trading day.
PDH: Prior Day High
PDL: Prior Day Low
PDM: Prior Day Midpoint (the exact middle of the PDH and PDL)
PDP: Prior Day Pivot (a classic pivot point calculation)
Why they matter: These are often the most important levels for the current trading day. The market frequently tests the previous day's high and low.
How to use them: Under the "Prior Day" settings, you can enable or disable each of these four levels and customize their appearance.
3. 2-Day Prior Levels (PDH2 / PDL2 / etc.)
What they are: The same set of key levels (High, Low, Mid, Pivot) from two trading days ago.
Why they matter: These levels can still be highly relevant, especially if the market is trading within a multi-day range or returning to test a significant prior level.
How to use them: Under the "2-Day Prior" settings, you can customize the visibility and style of these levels. They are styled with more transparency by default to distinguish them from the more recent prior day's levels.
4. General Settings
Days of History: This setting allows you to control how many past days of historical lines are kept on your chart. This is excellent for back-testing strategies and seeing how price has reacted to these levels in the past.
Label Settings: You can customize the color and size of the on-chart labels (e.g., "PDH," "PML") for better visibility.
Sample Strategy: The Key Level Rejection
This strategy focuses on using the indicator's levels to identify potential reversals at key areas of support or resistance.
Identify a Key Level: Watch as the price approaches a significant level plotted by the indicator, such as the Prior Day High (PDH) or the Premarket Low (PML).
Look for Rejection: Do not trade simply because the price touches the level. Wait for a price action signal that confirms the level is holding. This could be a bearish engulfing candle or a shooting star pattern at a resistance level like PDH, or a bullish hammer or morning star pattern at a support level like PML.
Entry: Once you see a clear rejection candle, enter a trade in the direction of the rejection. For a bearish rejection at the PDH, you would enter a short position.
Stop-Loss: A logical place for a stop-loss is just above the high of the rejection candle (for a short trade) or just below the low of the rejection candle (for a long trade). This defines your risk clearly.
Profit Target: Your first profit target could be the next key level plotted by the indicator. For example, if you shorted a rejection at the PDH, your first target might be the Premarket High (PMH) or the day's opening price.
Candle Range Classifier Dots OnlyCandle Range Classifier (Dots Only)
This indicator analyzes the price range of each candle relative to its recent average range to classify market activity into three categories: wide range, narrow range, or normal range.
Wide Range Candles (red dots above bars) indicate significant price movement and strong market effort.
Narrow Range Candles (blue dots below bars) indicate low volatility and possible market absorption or consolidation.
Normal Range Candles are not marked, keeping the chart clean and focused on meaningful range extremes.
Opening Range v3 (Dynamic)Opening Range Signals v3 (Dynamic) - Indicator Guide
Created by: MecarderoAurum
Why This Indicator Exists: An Overview
The "Opening Range Signals" indicator is a sophisticated tool designed for day traders who focus their strategy on the price action that unfolds during the Regular Trading Hours (RTH) of the New York session (09:30 - 16:00 ET). The opening period of the market, often called the "initial balance," is a critical time where institutions and traders establish the early high and low for the day. Trading the breakout of this range is a classic and effective strategy, but it's often plagued by false moves and "head fakes."
This indicator was built to solve that problem. It not only identifies the initial range but also incorporates a powerful dynamic expansion feature. This allows the indicator to intelligently adapt to early session volatility, filter out false breakouts, and establish more reliable support and resistance levels for the rest of the trading day. It provides a clear, visual framework for executing opening range strategies with more confidence.
Key Features & How to Use Them
1. Customizable Opening Range
This is the foundation of the indicator. It draws the high and low of the initial trading period on your chart.
What it does: Establishes the initial support and resistance levels for the day.
How to use it: In the settings under "Time Settings," you can set the "Opening Range Duration" from 1 to 30 minutes. A shorter duration (e.g., 5 minutes) will be more sensitive and give earlier signals, while a longer duration (e.g., 30 minutes) will establish a wider, more robust range.
2. Dynamic Range Expansion
This is the indicator's most powerful and unique feature. It helps you avoid getting trapped in false breakouts.
What it does: If the price breaks out of the initial range but then quickly closes back inside, the indicator will automatically expand the range to include the full wick of the failed breakout. This tells you the market is still establishing its true range.
How to use it: In the settings under "Dynamic Range," you can:
"Enable Dynamic Range Expansion": This is on by default.
"Expansion Time Limit (Min)": Set how long the indicator should look for these failed breakouts. After this time, the range will be locked for the day.
3. Clear Visual Trading Signals
The indicator provides three distinct signals to help you interpret the price action around the opening range.
Breakout Body (Yellow plotshape):
What it means: The first confirmation that the price has decisively moved outside the established range. It appears when a candle's body closes entirely above the high or below the low.
How to use it: This is your alert that a potential breakout is underway. Do not enter yet; wait for confirmation.
Continuation (Green plotshape):
What it means: This signal appears on the candle immediately following a breakout if it shows momentum in the same direction. It confirms that the breakout has strength.
How to use it: This is a potential entry trigger. A continuation signal suggests the breakout is valid and may continue.
Failure (Red plotshape):
What it means: This signal appears if, after a breakout and continuation, the price quickly reverses and closes back inside the range. It's a strong indication of a false breakout.
How to use it: If you are in a breakout trade, a failure signal is a clear sign to exit. It can also be used as a setup for a reversal trade in the opposite direction.
Sample Strategy: The Breakout-Continuation Trade
This strategy uses the indicator's signals to trade a classic opening range breakout with added confirmation.
Setup:
Set the "Opening Range Duration" to your preferred time (e.g., 5 or 15 minutes).
Ensure the "Dynamic Range Expansion" is enabled to filter out early noise.
Entry Trigger:
Wait for a Breakout signal (yellow) to appear. This puts you on high alert.
Wait for a Continuation signal (green) on the very next candle. This is your entry trigger. Enter a long trade on a bullish continuation or a short trade on a bearish continuation.
Stop-Loss:
For a bullish (long) trade, a common stop-loss placement is just below the low of the continuation candle or, for a more conservative stop, just inside the opening range high.
For a bearish (short) trade, place your stop-loss just above the high of the continuation candle or just inside the opening range low.
Trade Management:
If a Failure signal (red) appears after you've entered, it indicates the breakout has failed. This is a strong signal to exit your trade immediately to protect your capital.
If the trade moves in your favor, you can manage it by taking profits at key levels or using a trailing stop.

SMAs Ghost in the Machine v3SMAs Ghost in the Machine v3
Created by: MecarderoAurum
Overview
The "SMAs Ghost in the Machine" is a powerful multi-timeframe analysis tool designed for traders who want to align their entries and exits with the trend on several different chart periods simultaneously. At its core, the indicator plots the 9-period and 20-period Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) from up to three user-defined timeframes directly onto your active chart.
Its most powerful feature is the Combined Crossover Signal, which allows you to create highly specific, custom trading setups by defining conditions that must occur at the same time across any of the enabled timeframes. This eliminates guesswork and helps you visually confirm when your precise market conditions are met.
Important Note on Line Drawing
This indicator allows you to see trends of other timeframes. A specific design choice was made not to smooth the moving average lines. This is to ensure that the crossover signals appear on the exact candle where the cross occurs in real-time. Smoothing the lines can cause a delay and shift the signal to a later candle.
The side effect of this accuracy is that the lines will appear "stepped." As new data comes in on your current chart, you may need to refresh the chart to keep the higher timeframe lines updated. We are working on a solution to this.
Capabilities
Multi-Timeframe Analysis: Plot the 9 and 20 SMAs from three different timeframes (e.g., 1-minute, 5-minute, and 30-minute) on a single chart.
Individual Crossover Signals: Automatically plots a green triangle (▲) for a "Golden Cross" (9 SMA crosses above 20) and a red triangle (▼) for a "Death Cross" (9 SMA crosses below 20) on each individual timeframe.
Combined Crossover Engine: Define a custom bullish or bearish signal by combining multiple events. The indicator will plot a green diamond (◆) for your bullish setup and a red diamond (◆) for your bearish setup when all specified conditions are met on the same candle.
Customizable Alerts: Create alerts for both the individual 9/20 SMA crosses and your custom Combined Crossover Signal to ensure you never miss a potential setup.
How to Use the Indicator
Basic Setup
Add the "SMAs Ghost in the Machine v3" indicator to your TradingView chart.
Open the indicator settings.
Under the Timeframe Settings, enable the timeframes you want to monitor and select the desired period for each (e.g., TF1: '1', TF2: '5', TF3: '30').
Configuring the Combined Crossover Signal
This is the core feature for defining your specific trading setups.
In the settings, go to the "Combined Crossover Signal" group and check the box to "Enable Combined Signal."
Decide if you are building a bullish (long) or bearish (short) setup.
Under the "Bullish Setup" or "Bearish Setup" sections, check the boxes for every event that must happen at the same time for your signal to trigger.
Example Bullish Setup:
Let's say your strategy is to go long when:
On the 1-minute chart (TF1), the price crosses above the 9 SMA.
AND, on the 5-minute chart (TF3), the price also crosses above its 9 SMA.
To configure this, you would check the following two boxes under the "Bullish Setup":
TF1: Price crosses above 9 SMA
TF3: Price crosses above 9 SMA
Now, a green diamond (◆) will only appear on your chart when both of those conditions are true on the exact same bar, giving you a precise entry signal.
Setting Up Alerts
Go to the "Alert Settings" tab in the indicator options.
Check the boxes for the alerts you want to enable (e.g., "Alert on TF1 SMA Cross," "Alert on Combined Signal").
Close the settings. Now, right-click on the chart and choose "Add alert."

Trading Strategies
Trend Confirmation: Use the indicator on a 1-minute chart with the 5-minute 9/20 SMA lines enabled to see the 5-minute trend. Only take 1-minute trades that are in the same direction as the 5-minute SMAs.
Multi-Flow Alignment: Keep track of bigger timeframes (like the 30-min or 4-hour) to also match your entries with longer-term market flows.
Avoid Flat Markets: Avoid taking trades when the SMA lines from multiple timeframes are flat or moving sideways, as this indicates a lack of clear trend.
