Extended Hours Volume FlagOverview: The Extended Hours Volume Flag Indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders who are interested in monitoring and analyzing the volume activity during the extended trading hours—specifically the premarket (4:00 AM to 9:30 AM) and afterhours (4:00 PM to 8:00 PM) sessions. This indicator identifies and flags stocks where the trading volume during these extended hours exceeds 20% of the Average Volume (AVOL) during regular trading hours. Such occurrences often signal unusual activity or potential market-moving events, which can be crucial for informed trading decisions.
Concept: Volume is a critical factor in trading, often providing insights into market sentiment and potential price movements. However, volume during extended hours can be particularly revealing as it may indicate heightened interest or activity outside of the regular trading session. The Extended Hours Volume Flag Indicator is built on the concept that significant volume during premarket or afterhours trading sessions, relative to the average regular session volume, could be an early indicator of upcoming volatility or trends.
How It Works:
Session Segmentation: The indicator distinguishes between regular trading hours (9:30 AM to 4:00 PM) and extended hours (premarket and afterhours). It accumulates the trading volume separately for these sessions.
Volume Comparison: It calculates the Average Volume (AVOL) over a user-defined period (default is 14 days) during regular trading hours. It then compares the extended hours volume to this AVOL.
Flagging Condition: If the volume during the extended hours exceeds 20% of the AVOL, the indicator flags the stock with a warning symbol on the chart. This visual cue helps traders quickly identify stocks with potentially significant afterhours or premarket activity.
Reset Mechanism: The accumulated volumes reset at the start of the new trading day, ensuring accurate calculations for each day.
Usage: This indicator is ideal for traders who are looking for early signals of market activity outside regular hours, which might not be immediately visible when looking solely at price action. It is particularly useful for day traders and swing traders who want to keep an eye on potential premarket or afterhours catalysts.

FIRST-HOUR TOOL V.1.8.08.23Three horizontal lines are drawn on the chart to represent session prices. These prices are calculated based on the user-specified session:
"FirstHour Session High" represents the highest price reached during the firsthour session.
"FirstHour Session Open" represents the opening price of the firsthour session
"FirstHour Session Low" represents the lowest price reached during the firsthour session.
These prices are respectively colored with light blue, light yellow, and light pink.
The chart background can change color based on whether the current time is within the specified session. If the current time is within the session, the background will be colored in semi-transparent aqua green. Otherwise, it will remain transparent.
Upward-pointing triangle markers are used to highlight points where the closing price crosses above (crossover) or below (crossunder) the session levels.
These markers appear below the corresponding bar.
They are colored based on the type of crossover:
Yellow for crossover above the "FirstHour High"
Red for crossover above the "FirstHour Open"
Green for crossover above the "FirstHour Low"
Alerts:
Alert messages are generated when crossovers or crossunders of the closing price relative to the session levels occur.
The alerts appear once per bar. Alerts are generated for the following events:
Crossover of the price above the "Session High" with the message "High First Hour Crossover."
Crossunder of the price below the "Session Open" with the message "Open First Hour Crossunder."
Crossunder of the price below the "Session Low" with the message "Low First Hour Crossunder."
Crossover of the price above the "Session Low" with the message "Low First Hour Crossover."
In summary, this indicator provides a visual representation of session prices and events, helping traders spot significant crossovers and crossunders relative to key price levels.

Binary Option Ultimate Backtester-V.1[tanayroy]The Binary Option strategy backtester gives the user extensive power to test any kind of strategy with advance trade management rules.
The strategy tester accepts external scripts as strategy sources. You can add your strategy and test it for historical stats.
Few assumption regarding strategy tester:
We are opening position at next candle after signal come
We are taking the position at opening price
Our call will be profitable if we get a green candle and put will be profitable if we get a red candle
We can open only one trade at a time. So if we are in trade, subsequent signals will be ignored.
How to make your strategy code compatible for strategy backtesting?
In your strategy code file add following lines:
Signal = is_call ? 1 : is_put ? -1 : 0
plot(Signal, title="🔌Connector🔌", display = display.none)
Is_call and is_put is your buy and sell signal. Plot the signal without displaying it in the chart. The new TradingView feature display = display.none, will not display the plot.
All Input options
Group: STRATEGY
Add Your Binary Strategy: External strategy to back test.
Trade Call/Put: Select CALL, to trade Call, PUT, to trade Put. Default is BOTH, Trading Call and Put both.
Number of Candles to Hold: How many candles to hold per trade. Default 1. If you want to hold the option for 30 minutes and you are testing your strategy in 15m intervals, use 2 candle holding periods.
GROUP: MARTINGALE
Martingale Level: Select up to 15 Martingale. Select 1 for no Martingale.
Use Martingale At Strategy Level: Instead of using Martingale per trade basis, using Martingale per signal basis. Like if we make a loss in the first signal, instead of starting martingale immediately we’ll wait for the next signal to put the martingale amount. For example if you start with $1 and you lose, at the next signal you will invest $2 to recover your losses.
Strategy Martingale Level: Select up to 15 Martingale at strategy signal level. Only workable if Use Martingale At Strategy Level is selected.
Type of Trade: Martingale trade type. Only workable if we are using Martingale Level more than 1.
It can be:
“SAME”: If you are trading CALL and incur a loss, you are taking CALL in subsequent Martingale levels.
“OPSITE”: if you are trading CALL and incur a loss, you are taking PUT in subsequent Martingale levels.
“FOLLOW CANDLE COLOR”: You are following candle color in Martingale levels, i.e if the loss candle is RED, you are taking PUT in subsequent candles.
“OPPOSITE CANDLE COLOR”: You are taking opposite candle color trade, i.e if the loss candle is RED, you are taking CALL in subsequent candle.

Multi-Timeline 1.0Multi-TimeLines 1.0 - Comprehensive Description
WHAT IT DOES:
This indicator creates dynamic horizontal support/resistance lines based on opening prices captured at user-defined New York times. Unlike static horizontal lines, these levels automatically appear and disappear based on sophisticated session logic, providing traders with time-sensitive reference levels that adapt to market sessions.
HOW IT WORKS - TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
1.
Timezone Conversion Engine:
The script uses Pine Script's "America/New_York" timezone functions to ensure all time calculations are based on NY time, regardless of the user's chart timezone. This eliminates confusion and provides consistent behavior across global markets.
2.
Dual-Category Time Classification System:
The indicator employs a unique two-category classification system:
Category A (16:00-23:59 NY): Evening times that extend overnight until next day 15:59 NY
Category B (00:00-15:59 NY): Day times that extend until same day 15:59 NY
This classification handles the complex logic of overnight sessions and prevents lines from incorrectly resetting at midnight for evening times.
3. Price Capture Mechanism:
Uses precise time-hit detection with backup systems for edge cases (especially midnight 00:00). When a specified time occurs, the script captures the bar's opening price and stores it in persistent variables using Pine Script's var declarations.
4. Session-Aware Display Logic:
Lines only appear during their designated "display windows" - periods when the captured price level is relevant. The script uses conditional plotting with plot.style_linebr to create clean breaks when lines are inactive.
5. Smart Reset System:
Different reset behaviors based on time classification:
Category A times persist across midnight (for overnight analysis)
Category B times reset on day changes (except 00:00 which captures AT day change)
Automatic cleanup when display windows close
ORIGINALITY & UNIQUE FEATURES:
1. Overnight Session Handling:
Unlike basic horizontal line tools, this script properly handles overnight spans for evening times, making it invaluable for analyzing gaps and overnight price action.
2. Automatic Session Management:
No manual line drawing required - the script automatically manages when lines appear/disappear based on NY market sessions (15:59 close, 18:00 after-hours start).
3. Time-Window Display Logic:
Lines only show during relevant periods, reducing chart clutter and focusing attention on currently active levels.
TRADING CONCEPTS & APPLICATIONS:
1. Session-Based Analysis:
Capture opening prices at key session times:
00:00 NY: Sydney/Asian session start
03:00 NY: London pre-market
08:00 NY: London session open
09:30 NY: NYSE opening bell
18:00 NY: After-hours start
2. Gap Analysis:
Evening times (20:00-23:59) that extend overnight are particularly useful for:
Identifying potential gap-fill levels
Tracking overnight high/low breaks
Setting reference points for next-day trading
3. Support/Resistance Framework:
Opening prices at significant times often act as:
Intraday support/resistance levels
Reference points for breakout/breakdown analysis
Pivot levels for mean reversion strategies
HOW TO USE:
1. Time Input:
Enter times in "HH:MM" format using 24-hour NY time:
"09:30" for NYSE open
"15:30" for late-day reference
"20:00" for evening level (extends overnight)
2. Line Behavior:
Blue/Green/Cyan/Red lines: Your custom times
Yellow line: After-hours day open (18:00 NY start)
Lines appear with breaks during inactive periods
3. Strategic Setup:
Use 2-3 key session times for your trading style
Combine morning times (immediate reference) with evening times (overnight analysis)
Toggle after-hours line based on your market focus
CALCULATION METHOD:
The script uses direct opening price capture (no smoothing or averaging) at precise time hits, ensuring the most accurate representation of actual market levels at specified times. This raw price approach maintains the integrity of actual market opening prices rather than manipulated or calculated values.
This method is particularly effective because opening prices at significant times often represent institutional order flow and can act as magnetic levels throughout subsequent sessions.
The Daily Profiler v2.0This indicator serves as a multi-faceted analysis tool for TradingView, geared towards day traders who need context based on daily cycles and key price levels, especially in markets like futures that follow the NY trading schedule (18:00 ET daily reset).
Core Functionality Breakdown:
Session & Opening Range Analysis:
It defines and visually demarcates four key trading sessions: Asia (ASN: 1800-0230), London (LDN: 0230-0730), NY1 (0730-1130), and NY2 (1130-1615), using the "America/New_York" timezone.
For each session, it identifies an "Opening Range" (OR) period (e.g., 1800-1930 for ASN).
Users can opt to display background boxes for the full sessions and/or the OR periods.
It plots horizontal lines marking the High and Low reached during each session and OR period.
Crucially, it calculates the midpoint of each Opening Range (the "O/U" or Over/Under line) and tracks whether subsequent price action "breaks" this level, updating line styles and status information accordingly.
Key Price Level Plotting:
Previous Day Context: Plots the High (PDH), Low (PDL), and Midpoint (PDM) of the previous trading day, providing immediate reference points.
Daily Anchor Points: Draws lines for the Globex Open (18:00 ET start), the previous day's Settlement price, and the Midnight Open (00:00 ET), offering insight into key daily cycle starting points.
P12 Session (18:00-06:00): Tracks this overnight period and, after 06:00 ET, projects extended lines for its High, Low, and Midpoint.
High/Low of Day (HOD/LOD) Features:
Actual Tracking: Identifies and marks the actual HOD and LOD achieved during the main trading day (18:00-16:15 window) with labels showing the price, time occurred, and percentage move from the open.
User Projections: Allows users to configure multiple sets of potential HOD/LOD target zones (categorized as Long/True, Long/False, Short/True, Short/False). These are defined by specific time windows and percentage ranges from the daily open, displayed as colored projection boxes.
Statistical Projections:
ADR/MDR: Calculates the Average Daily Range (ADR) or Median Daily Range (MDR) over a user-set lookback period. It then plots projected High/Low levels for the current day based on adding/subtracting half this range value from the daily open price.
ASN OR Standard Deviations: Uses the range of the Asian session's OR to calculate and plot standard deviation levels (+/- 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 8.0). These lines appear after the ASN OR concludes and change appearance if price crosses them.
09:30 NY Open Focus:
Provides specific analysis for the 09:30 ET 1-minute candle, often significant for US equity index futures.
Draws a box around this candle's range, optionally recoloring the bar, and draws internal percentage levels (25/50/75%) and minor offset lines for the subsequent 15 minutes.
Informational Tables:
Model Table: Summarizes the OR breakout dynamics for each session, indicating the initial break direction (Long/Short), whether the session maintained that direction without breaking the opposite side (True/False), and whether the OR midpoint was later broken (Broken/None).
Distribution Table: Presents range and percentage statistics for each session (and the 0930-1000 window). It shows the current day's values alongside historical Average or Median values, which can be filtered by day of the week or shown as a weekly total.
Customization & Management:
Offers extensive inputs to toggle nearly every visual element and feature.
Allows detailed customization of colors, line styles/widths, label content/size, and table appearance/position.
Incorporates logic to clean up drawings from the previous day at the 18:00 ET reset, ensuring chart clarity.

Normalized VolumeOVERVIEW
The Normalized Volume (NV) is an attempt at visualizing volume in a format that is more understandable by placing the values on a scale of 0 to 100. 0 in this case is the lowest volume candle available on the chart, and 100 being the highest. Calling a candle “high volume” can be misleading without having something to compare to. For example, in scaling the volume this way we can clearly see that a given candle had 80% of the peak volume or 20%, and gauge the validity of price moves more accurately.
FEATURES
NV by session
Allows user to filter the volume values across 4 different sessions. This can add context to the volume output, because what it high volume during London session may not be high volume relative to New York session.
Overlay plotting
When volume boxes are turned on, this will allow you to toggle how they are plotted.
Color theme
A standard color theme will color the NV based on if the respective candle closed green or red. Selecting variables will color the NV plot based on which range the value falls within.
Session inputs
Activated with the “By session?” Input. Allows user to break the day up into 4 sessions to more accurately gauge volume relative to time of day.
Show Box (X)
Toggles on chart boxes on and off.
Show historical boxes
Will plot prior occurrences of selected volume boxes, deleting them when price fully moves through them in the opposite direction of the initial candle.
Color inputs
Allows for intensive customization in how this tool appears visually.
INTERPRETATION
There are 6 pre-defined ranges that NV can fall within.
NV <= 10
Volume is insignificant
In this range, volume should not be a confirmation in your trading strategy.
NV > 10 and <= 20
Volume is low
In this range, volume should not be a confirmation in your trading strategy.
NV > 20 and <= 40
Volume is fair
In this range, volume should not be the primary confirmation in your trading strategy.
NV > 40 and <= 60
Volume is high
In this range, volume can be the primary confirmation in your trading strategy.
NV > 60 and <= 80
Volume is very high
In this range, volume can be the primary confirmation in your trading strategy.
NV > 80
Volume is extreme
In this range, volume is likely news driven and caution should be taken. High price volatility possible.
To utilize this tool in conjunction with your current strategy, follow the range explanations above section in this section. The higher the NV value, the stronger you can feel about your directional confirmation.
If NV = 100, this means that the highest volume candle occurred up to that point on your selected timeframe. All future data points will be weighed off of this value.
LIMITATIONS
This tool will not load on tickers that do not have volume data, such as VIX.
STRATEGY
The Normalized Volume plot can be used in exactly the same way as you would normally utilize volume in your trading strategy. All we are doing is weighing the volume relative to itself.
Volume boxes can be used as targets to be filled in a similar way to commonly used “fair value gap” strategies. To utilize this strategy, I recommend selecting “Plot to Wicks” in Overlay Plotting and toggling on Show Historical Boxes.
Volume boxes can be used as areas for entry in a similar way to commonly used “order block” strategies. To utilize this strategy, I recommend selecting “Open To Close” in Overlay Plotting.
NOTES
You are able to plot an info label on right side of NV plot using the "Toggle box label" input. When a box is toggled on this label will tell you when the most recent box of that intensity occurred.
This tool is deeply visually customizable, with the ability to adjust line width for plotted boxes, all colors on both box overlays, and all colors on NV panel. Customize it to your liking!
I have a handful of additional features that I plan on adding to this tool in future updates. If there is anything you would like to see added, any bugs you identify, or any strategies you encounter with this tool, I would love to hear from you!

Time Range### Indicator Name: **Time Range**
#### Description:
The **Time Range** indicator allows users to highlight specific time ranges on a chart for each day of the week. It uses customizable time inputs for every day (Monday to Sunday), allowing the user to define trading sessions or any time-based range. These sessions are visualized by shading the background of the chart within the defined periods.
#### Key Features:
- **Custom Sessions**: For each day of the week (Monday to Sunday), the user can define a unique time session by specifying the start time using the input fields.
- **Day-wise Session Activation**: The user can toggle the activation of sessions for each day by using checkboxes. If the session for a particular day is disabled, no background shading will appear for that day.
- **Background Highlighting**: When a session is active, the background of the chart during the specified session period will be shaded in gray with a 70% transparency. This helps the user visually identify active time ranges across multiple days.
#### Use Cases:
- **Highlighting Trading Sessions**: Traders can use this indicator to easily visualize specific market sessions such as the New York or London trading sessions.
- **Visualizing Custom Time Blocks**: Can be used to highlight any custom time blocks that are important for the trader, such as key trading hours, news release periods, or other time-based strategies.
#### Customizable Parameters:
- **Day Toggles**: Checkboxes to activate or deactivate sessions for each day of the week.
- **Time Range Inputs**: Time range inputs allow the user to set start times for each session, which are applied based on the user's selection for the day.
This indicator helps streamline chart analysis by giving clear visual markers for time-based events or trading windows.
Time-based Vertical LinesThe Time-Based Vertical Line Script is a Pine Script tool designed to plot vertical lines at specific times during the trading day. The script allows users to mark important time-based events or price movement patterns by plotting fully customizable vertical lines on the chart. Each line can be configured with a specific time, color, width, and style, providing a clear visual reference for key moments throughout the trading session.
Key Features:
Custom Time Inputs:
Users can specify the hour and minute for each vertical line to mark crucial times, such as the opening or closing of a market session, or events like news releases.
The script can accommodate up to 24 vertical lines, each with individual time settings.
Customizable Appearance:
Color: Select different colors for each line to visually distinguish between important events or trading sessions.
Width: Adjust the thickness of the vertical lines to emphasize specific times.
Style: Choose from solid, dashed, or dotted lines for further customization.
No Built-in UTC Offset:
Important: This script does not automatically adjust for time zones or UTC offsets. The user must manually set the time for each vertical line based on the platform's server time or the desired trading session time.
If you are in a different time zone, you will need to calculate the time difference between your local time and the platform's time zone (which could be UTC or any other time zone).
For example, if the platform is set to UTC and you are in New York (UTC-4 during daylight savings), you will need to manually adjust your time inputs to match the time zone difference.
Static Time Configuration: The times you input for the vertical lines are fixed, meaning they won’t automatically adjust based on daylight savings or time zone shifts. You'll need to manually reconfigure the times if such changes occur.
Use Cases:
Session Marking: Mark the beginning and end of specific market sessions like New York, London, or Asian trading hours.
Event Monitoring: Plot lines to mark important economic events or news releases, ensuring you're prepared for potential market movements.
Strategy Tracking: For traders using time-sensitive strategies, such as the ICT (Inner Circle Trader) models, the script can help you highlight critical time windows for potential setups.
Important Note on Time Zone:
Since the script doesn't automatically apply a UTC offset, users need to figure out the correct time to input based on their own time zone and the platform's time zone. For example:
If you're in New York (UTC-4) and want to mark the New York session open at 9:30 AM, but your platform runs on UTC time, you would input 13:30 as the hour for the vertical line (since 9:30 AM UTC-4 corresponds to 13:30 UTC).
Example:
If your platform’s time is set to UTC, and you want to mark an event that happens at 10:00 AM in your local time zone (UTC-5), you'll need to set the vertical line to 15:00 (because 10:00 AM UTC-5 is 15:00 in UTC).
This means you'll need to calculate the offset based on your location and input the adjusted time into the script manually.
RSI Supreme Multi-Method [MyTradingCoder]Introducing the "RSI Supreme Multi-Method" indicator, a powerful tool that combines the Relative Strength Index (RSI) with selectable manipulation methods to identify overbought and oversold conditions in the market, along with the ability to detect divergences for enhanced trading insights.
The indicator features four distinct manipulation methods for the RSI, each providing valuable insights into market conditions:
1. Standard RSI Method: The indicator uses the traditional RSI calculation to identify overbought and oversold areas.
2. Volatility Weighted RSI Method: This method applies a volatility formula to the RSI calculation, allowing for a more responsive indication of market conditions during periods of heightened volatility. Users can adjust the length of the volatility formula to fine-tune this method.
3. Smoothed RSI Method: The smoothed RSI method utilizes a smoothing algorithm to reduce noise in the RSI values, presenting a clearer representation of overbought and oversold conditions. The length of the smoothing can be adjusted to match your trading preferences.
4. Session Weighted RSI Method: With this innovative method, users can specify multipliers for different time sessions throughout the day to manipulate the base RSI. Each session can be customized with start and end times, enabling or disabling specific sessions, and specifying the multiplier for each session. This feature allows traders to adapt the RSI to different market sessions dynamically.
Additionally, the "RSI Supreme Multi-Method" indicator draws divergences on the oscillator, providing an extra layer of analysis for traders. Divergences occur when the direction of the RSI differs from the direction of the price movement, potentially signaling trend reversals.
Key Settings:
RSI Length: Adjust the length of the base RSI before applying any manipulation.
RSI Source: Determine the data source for the base RSI calculation.
Overbought Value: Set the RSI value at which overbought conditions are indicated.
Oversold Value: Set the RSI value at which oversold conditions are indicated.
RSI Type: Choose from four options: Standard, Smoothed, Volatility Manipulated, or Session Manipulated.
Volatility Manipulated Settings: Adjust the length of the volatility formula (applicable to Volatility Manipulated method).
Smoothed Settings: Adjust the length of the smoothing (applicable to Smoothed method).
Session Manipulated Settings: Customize six different time sessions with start and end times, enable or disable specific sessions, and specify multipliers for each session.
Divergence Color: Adjust the color of the drawn divergences to suit your chart's aesthetics.
Divergence Tuning: Fine-tune the sensitivity of the divergence detection for more accurate signals.
The "RSI Supreme Multi-Method" indicator is a versatile and comprehensive tool that can be used to identify overbought and oversold areas, as well as to spot potential trend reversals through divergences. However, like all technical analysis tools, it should be used in conjunction with other indicators and analysis methods to make well-informed trading decisions.
Enhance your trading insights with the "RSI Supreme Multi-Method" indicator and gain an edge in identifying critical market conditions and divergences with precision.
ICT Sessions_One Setup for Life [MK]The script plots the High/Low of the following trading sessions:
London - 02:00-05:00
NY AM - 09:30-12:00
New York Lunch - 12:00-13:30
New York PM - 13:30-16:00
Due to the high level of liquidity (resting orders), highs and lows of these sessions may be used as buy/sell areas and also as profit target areas. Typically, buy orders would be initiated below a session low and sell orders would be initiated above a
session high.
The script also plots 'RTH (Regular Trading Hours) Opening Gaps'. The RTH gaps are drawn from the closing price of regular trading at 16:15 (EST) to the open price of regular trading at 09:30 (EST). Gaps can be areas that traders might anticipate to be filled at some time in the future. A gap 'midline' is available if needed and yesterday RTH close line can be shown and extended to the current bar.
This script is simply a means to draw boxes around certain areas/periods on the charts. It is in no way a trading strategy and users should spend much time to study the concept and should also perform extensive back-testing before taking any trades.
By setting the lookback value to a much higher value then the default of 6, users can utilise the script to perform their own backtesting studies.
The above chart shows the default setup of the indicator. Note that the user has to choose how far (in days) to lookback and draw the sessions/gaps.
It is also possible to show the session high//low lines and extend them to the current bar time. If this is used it is advised to keep the lookback period as low as possible to ensure charts stay clean/uncluttered.
All boxes/lines styles/colors are fully customisable.
Breaking Bar [5ema]I reused some functions, made by (i believe that):
@LeviathanCapital: Market Sessions.

Open Interest Profile (OI)- By LeviathanThis script implements the concept of Open Interest Profile, which can help you analyze the activity of traders and identify the price levels where they are opening/closing their positions. This data can serve as a confluence for finding the areas of support and resistance , targets and placing stop losses. OI profiles can be viewed in the ranges of days, weeks, months, Tokyo sessions, London sessions and New York sessions.
A short introduction to Open Interest
Open Interest is a metric that measures the total amount of open derivatives contracts in a specific market at a given time. A valid contract is formed by both a buyer who opens a long position and a seller who opens a short position. This means that OI represents the total value of all open longs and all open shorts, divided by two. For example, if Open Interest is showing a value of $1B, it means that there is $1B worth of long and $1B worth of short contracts currently open/unsettled in a given market.
OI increasing = new long and short contracts are entering the market
OI decreasing = long and short contracts are exiting the market
OI unchanged = the net amount of positions remains the same (no new entries/exits or just a transfer of contracts occurring)
About this indicator
*This script is basically a modified version of my previous "Market Sessions and Volume Profile by @LeviathanCapital" indicator but this time, profiles are generated from Tradingview Open Interest data instead of volume (+ some other changes).
The usual representation of OI shows Open Interest value and its change based on time (for a particular day, time frame or each given candle). This indicator takes the data and plots it in a way where you can see the OI activity (change in OI) based on price levels. To put it simply, instead of observing WHEN (time) positions are entering/exiting the market, you can now see WHERE (price) positions are entering/exiting the market. This is the same concept as when it comes to Volume and Volume profile and therefore, similar strategies and ways of understanding the given data can be applied here. You can even combine the two to gain an edge (eg. high OI increase + Volume Profile showing dominant market selling = possible aggressive shorts taking place)
Green nodes = OI increase
Red nodes = OI decrease
A cluster of large green nodes can be used for support and resistance levels (*trapped traders theory) or targets (lots of liquidations and stop losses above/below), OI Profile gaps can present an objective for the price to fill them (liquidity gaps, imbalances, inefficiencies, etc), and more.
Indicator settings
1. Session/Lookback - Choose the range from where the OI Profile will be generated
2. OI Profile Mode - Mode 1 (shows only OI increase), Mode 2 (shows both OI increase and decrease), Mode 3 (shows OI decrease on left side and OI increase on the right side).
3. Show OI Value Area - Shows the area where most OI activity took place (useful as a range or S/R level )
4. Show Session Box - Shows the box around chosen sessions/lookback
5. Show Profile - Show/hide OI Profile
6. Show Current Session - Show/hide the ongoing session
7. Show Session Labels - Show/hide the text labels for each session
8. Resolution - The higher the value, the more refined a profile is, but fewer profiles are shown on the chart
9. OI Value Area % - Choose the percentage of VA (same as in Volume Profile's VA)
10. Smooth OI Data - Useful for assets that have very large spikes in OI over large bars, helps create better profiles
11. OI Increase - Pick the color of OI increase nodes in the profile
12. OI Decrease - Pick the color of OI decrease nodes in the profile
13. Value Area Box - Pick the color of the Value Area Box
14. Session Box Thickness - Pick the thickness of the lines surrounding the chosen sessions
Advice
The indicator calculates the profile based on candles - the more candles you can show, the better profile will be formed. This means that it's best to view most sessions on timeframes like 15min or lower. The only exception is the Monthly profile, where timeframes above 15min should be used. Just take a few minutes and switch between timeframes and sessions and you will figure out the optimal settings.
This is the first version of Open Interest Profile script so please understand that it will be improved in future updates.
Thank you for your support.

LVN/HVN Auto Detection [PhenLabs]📊 PhenLabs - LVN/HVN Auto Detection
Version: PineScript™ v6
📌 Description
The PhenLabs LVN/HVN Auto Detection indicator is an advanced volume profile analysis tool that automatically identifies Low Volume Nodes (LVN) and High Volume Nodes (HVN) across multiple trading sessions. This sophisticated indicator analyzes volume distribution patterns to pinpoint critical support and resistance levels where price is likely to react, providing traders with high-probability zones for entries, exits, and risk management.
Unlike traditional volume indicators that only show current activity, this tool builds comprehensive volume profiles from historical sessions and intelligently filters the most significant levels. It combines real-time volume analysis with dynamic level detection, offering both visual bubbles for immediate volume activity and persistent horizontal lines that act as ongoing support/resistance references.
🚀 Points of Innovation
Multi-Session Volume Profile Analysis - Automatically calculates and analyzes volume profiles across the last 5 trading sessions
Intelligent Level Separation Logic - Prevents overlapping signals by maintaining minimum separation between LVN and HVN levels
Dynamic Timeframe Adaptation - Automatically adjusts session lengths based on chart timeframe for optimal level detection
Real-Time Activity Bubbles - Shows volume activity strength through different bubble sizes at key levels
Persistent Line Management - Creates horizontal lines that extend until price crosses them, providing ongoing reference points
Dual Threshold System - Independent percentage-based thresholds for both LVN and HVN identification
🔧 Core Components
Volume Profile Engine : Builds 20-row volume profiles for each analyzed session, distributing volume across price levels
Level Identification Algorithm : Uses percentage-based thresholds to classify volume distribution patterns
Separation Logic : Ensures minimum distance between conflicting levels, prioritizing HVN when overlap occurs
Line Management System : Tracks active support/resistance lines and removes them when price crosses through
Volume Activity Monitor : Compares current volume to 13-period moving average for activity classification
🔥 Key Features
Customizable Thresholds : LVN threshold (5-35%, default 20%) and HVN threshold (65-95%, default 80%) for precise level filtering
Volume Activity Multiplier : Adjustable volume threshold (0.5+, default 1.5) for bubble and line creation sensitivity
Flexible Display Modes : Choose between Lines only, Bubbles only, or Both for optimal chart clarity
Smart Level Separation : Minimum separation percentage (0.1-2%, default 0.5%) prevents conflicting signals
Color Customization : Independent color controls for LVN (red) and HVN (blue) elements
Performance Optimization : Processes every 15 bars with maximum 500 active lines for smooth operation
🎨 Visualization
Colored Bubbles : Three sizes (large, medium, small) indicate volume activity strength at key levels
Horizontal Lines : Persistent support/resistance lines with width corresponding to volume activity
Dual Color System : Semi-transparent red for LVN areas, semi-transparent blue for HVN zones
Information Tooltip : Optional table showing usage guidelines and optimization tips
📖 Usage Guidelines
Volume Thresholds
LVN Threshold
○ Default: 20.0%
○ Range: 5.0-35.0%
○ Description: Price levels with volume below this percentage are marked as LVNs. Lower values create fewer, more significant levels. Typical range 15-25% works for most instruments.
HVN Threshold
○ Default: 80.0%
○ Range: 65.0-95.0%
○ Description: Price levels with volume above this percentage are marked as HVNs. Higher values create fewer, stronger levels. Range 75-85% is optimal for most trading.
Display Controls
Volume Threshold
○ Default: 1.5
○ Range: 0.5+
○ Description: Multiplier for volume significance (High=2+threshold, Medium=1+threshold, Low=0+threshold). Higher values require more volume for signals.
✅ Best Use Cases
Swing Trading : Identify key levels for position entries and exits over multiple days
Scalping : Use bubbles for immediate volume activity confirmation at critical levels
Risk Management : Place stops beyond LVN levels where price moves quickly
Breakout Trading : Monitor HVN levels for potential breakout or rejection scenarios
Multi-Timeframe Analysis : Combine with higher timeframe levels for confluence
⚠️ Limitations
Timeframe Sensitivity : Lower timeframes may produce too many levels; higher timeframes recommended for cleaner signals
Volume Data Dependency : Accuracy depends on reliable volume data from your data provider
Historical Analysis : Uses past volume data which may not predict future price behavior
Performance Impact : High number of active lines may affect chart performance on slower devices
💡 What Makes This Unique
Automated Session Analysis : No manual drawing required - automatically analyzes multiple sessions
Intelligent Filtering : Advanced separation logic prevents overlapping and conflicting signals
Adaptive Processing : Adjusts to different timeframes automatically for optimal level detection
Dual Visualization System : Combines persistent lines with real-time activity indicators
🔬 How It Works
1. Volume Profile Construction :
Analyzes the last 5 trading sessions with dynamic session length based on timeframe
Divides each session’s price range into 20 equal levels for volume distribution analysis
2. Level Classification :
Calculates volume percentage at each price level relative to session maximum
Identifies LVN levels below threshold and HVN levels above threshold
3. Signal Generation :
Creates bubbles when volume activity exceeds thresholds at identified levels
Draws horizontal lines that persist until price crosses through them
💡 Note : For optimal results, increase your chart timeframe if you see too many levels. The indicator performs best on 15-minute and higher timeframes where volume patterns are more meaningful and less noisy.
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.
Enigma Sniper 369The "Enigma Sniper 369" is a custom-built Pine Script indicator designed for TradingView, tailored specifically for forex traders seeking high-probability entries during high-volatility market sessions.
Unlike generic trend-following or scalping tools, this indicator uniquely combines session-based "kill zones" (London and US sessions), momentum-based candle analysis, and an optional EMA trend filter to pinpoint liquidity grabs and reversal opportunities.
Its originality lies in its focus on liquidity hunting—identifying levels where stop losses are likely clustered (around swing highs/lows and wick midpoints)—and providing visual entry zones that are dynamically removed once price breaches them, reducing clutter and focusing on actionable signals.
The name "369" reflects the structured approach of three key components (session timing, candle logic, and trend filter) working in harmony to snipe precise entries.
What It Does
"Enigma Sniper 369" identifies potential buy and sell opportunities by drawing two types of horizontal lines on the chart during user-defined London and US
session kill zones:
Solid Lines: Mark the swing low (for buys) or swing high (for sells) of a trigger candle, indicating a potential entry point where stop losses might be clustered.
Dotted Lines: Mark the 50% level of the candle’s wick (lower wick for buys, upper wick for sells), serving as a secondary confirmation zone for entries or tighter stop-loss placement.
These lines are plotted only when specific candle conditions are met within the kill zones, and they are automatically deleted once the price crosses them, signaling that the liquidity at that level has likely been grabbed. The indicator also includes an optional EMA filter to ensure trades align with the broader trend, reducing false signals in choppy markets.
How It Works
The indicator’s logic is built on a multi-layered approach:
Kill Zone Timing: Trades are only considered during user-defined London and US session hours (e.g., London from 02:00 to 12:00 UTC, as seen in the screenshots). These sessions are known for high volatility and liquidity, making them ideal for capturing institutional moves.
Candle-Based Momentum Logic:
Buy Signal: A candle must close above its midpoint (indicating bullish momentum) and have a lower low than the previous candle (suggesting a potential liquidity grab below the previous swing low). This is expressed as close > (high + low) / 2 and low < low .
Sell Signal: A candle must close below its midpoint (bearish momentum) and have a higher high than the previous candle (indicating a potential liquidity grab above the previous swing high), expressed as close < (high + low) / 2 and high > high .
These conditions ensure the indicator targets candles that break recent structure to hunt stop losses while showing directional momentum.
Optional EMA Filter: A 50-period EMA (customizable) can be enabled to filter signals based on trend direction.
Buy signals are only generated if the EMA is trending upward (ema_value > ema_value ), and sell signals require a downward EMA trend (ema_value < ema_value ). This reduces noise by aligning entries with the broader market trend.
Liquidity Levels and Deletion Logic:
For a buy signal, a solid green line is drawn at the candle’s low, and a dotted green line at the 50% level of the lower wick (from the candle body’s bottom to the low).
For a sell signal, a solid red line is drawn at the candle’s high, and a dotted red line at the 50% level of the upper wick (from the body’s top to the high).
These lines extend to the right until the price crosses them, at which point they are deleted, indicating the liquidity at that level has been taken (e.g., stop losses triggered).
Alerts: The indicator includes alert conditions for buy and sell signals, notifying traders when a new setup is identified.
Underlying Concepts
The indicator is grounded in the concept of liquidity hunting, a strategy often employed by institutional traders. Markets frequently move to levels where stop losses are clustered—typically just beyond swing highs or lows—before reversing in the opposite direction. The "Enigma Sniper 369" targets these moves by identifying candles that break structure (e.g., a lower low or higher high) during high-volatility sessions, suggesting a potential sweep of stop losses. The 50% wick level acts as a secondary confirmation, as this midpoint often represents a zone where tighter stop losses are placed by retail traders. The optional EMA filter adds a trend-following element, ensuring entries are taken in the direction of the broader market momentum, which is particularly useful on lower timeframes like the 15-minute chart shown in the screenshots.
How to Use It
Here’s a step-by-step guide based on the provided usage example on the GBP/USD 15-minute chart:
Setup the Indicator: Add "Enigma Sniper 369" to your TradingView chart. Adjust the London and US session hours to match your timezone (e.g., London from 02:00 to 12:00 UTC, US from 13:00 to 22:00 UTC). Customize the EMA period (default 50) and line styles/colors if desired.
Identify Kill Zones: The indicator highlights the London session in light green and the US session in light purple, as seen in the screenshots. Focus on these periods for signals, as they are the most volatile and likely to produce liquidity grabs.
Wait for a Signal: Look for solid and dotted lines to appear during the kill zones:
Buy Setup: A solid green line at the swing low and a dotted green line at the 50% lower wick level indicate a potential buy. This suggests the market may have grabbed liquidity below the swing low and is now poised to move higher.
Sell Setup: A solid red line at the swing high and a dotted red line at the 50% upper wick level indicate a potential sell, suggesting liquidity was taken above the swing high.
Place Your Trade:
For a buy, set a buy limit order at the dotted green line (50% wick level), as this is a more conservative entry point. Place your stop loss just below the solid green line (swing low) to cover the full swing. For example, in the screenshots, the market retraces to the dotted line at 1.32980 after a liquidity grab below the swing low, triggering a buy limit order.
For a sell, set a sell limit order at the dotted red line, with a stop loss just above the solid red line.
Monitor Price Action: Once the price crosses a line, it is deleted, indicating the liquidity at that level has been taken. In the screenshots, after the buy limit is triggered, the market moves higher, confirming the setup. The caption notes, “The market returns and tags us in long with a buy limit,” highlighting this retracement strategy.
Additional Context: Use the indicator to identify liquidity levels that may be targeted later. For example, the screenshot notes, “If a new session is about to open I will wait for the grab liquidity to go long,” showing how the indicator can be used to anticipate future moves at session opens (e.g., London open at 1.32980).
Risk Management: Always set a stop loss below the swing low (for buys) or above the swing high (for sells) to protect against adverse moves. The 50% wick level helps tighten entries, improving the risk-reward ratio.
Practical Example
On the GBP/USD 15-minute chart, during the London session (02:00 UTC), the indicator identifies a buy setup with a solid green line at 1.32901 (swing low) and a dotted green line at 1.32980 (50% wick level). The market initially dips below the swing low, grabbing liquidity, then retraces to the dotted line, triggering a buy limit order. The price subsequently rises to 1.33404, yielding a profitable trade. The user notes, “The logic is in the last candle it provides new level to go long,” emphasizing the indicator’s ability to identify fresh levels after a liquidity sweep.
Customization Tips
Adjust the EMA period to suit your timeframe (e.g., a shorter period like 20 for faster signals on lower timeframes).
Modify the session hours to align with your broker’s timezone or specific market conditions.
Use the alert feature to get notified of new setups without constantly monitoring the chart.

Range-Chart Time Analyzer
Make your Range Chart Complete
Overview:
This indicator is specifically designed for Range Charts. Unlike traditional charts, Range Charts plot bars at varying time intervals. This indicator helps visualize these "time warps" by calculating the difference between the opening time of the current bar and the opening time of the previous bar, along with their averages. Additionally, it offers optional settings to display Green-only, Red-only, or Green vs. Red averages .
Time Unit:
This indicator uses seconds as the unit of measurement for time
Logic: At its core, it relies solely on the opening time of each candle. The averages are calculated based on the time difference between consecutive pair of bars. For example, with a length of 3, the average is computed as:
/ 2
Features :
~Three Averages
~Green Candle only Average , Red Candle only Average and Green vs Red Average ( Green only Average minus Red only Average )
Inputs/Settings :
~Reference Bar: When the indicator is first added to the chart, it will prompt you to select a Reference Bar. This selection can be changed later without reapplying the indicator by either specifying the timestamp in the settings or adjusting the slider that appears above the red "R" label when hovering over it. The Reference Bar allows you to calculate an average starting from a specific point in time, such as the beginning of a trading session or a significant event like a news release or an announcement.
~Session Breaker: This feature ensures that averages are not skewed by the large time gap between trading sessions, i.e., the last candle of the previous session and the first candle of the current session. It is measured in seconds, as mentioned earlier. Set it to a large number of seconds, but ensure that it is less than the actual time gap between sessions.
~ Length and Length 2: The default Length is set to 2, allowing you to see individual differences. It is important to understand the following: WHEN LENGTH IS 2, THE AVERAGE DISPLAYED BELOW A CANDLE REPRESENTS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE PREVIOUS CANDLE'S OPEN TIME AND THE CURRENT/LATEST CANDLE'S OPEN TIME. BECAUSE, IN RANGE CHARTS, THE CLOSE OF THE PREVIOUS CANDLE AND THE OPEN OF THE CURRENT CANDLE ARE THE SAME, THIS MAY RESULT IN A RED-COLORED COLUMN APPEARING BELOW A GREEN CANDLE IF THE PREVIOUS CANDLE WAS RED. HOWEVER, THIS DOES NOT AFFECT THE ACCURACY OF THE RED ONLY OR GREEN ONLY AVERAGES. THIS INDICATOR IS ALWAYS "ONE CANDLE AHEAD" IN ITS PLOTTING.
Length 2 is used to calculate a third, larger average with a custom length of your choice.
~ Length for Green Only Average and Length for Red Only Average: These inputs define the lookback period for calculating the average of a specific candle color. A crucial point to remember is that when displaying the Green vs Red Average, both these inputs must be set to the same value to ensure an accurate comparison .
