Breadth Thrust PRO by Martin E. ZweigThe Breadth Thrust Indicator was developed by Martin E. Zweig (1942-2013), a renowned American stock investor, investment adviser, and financial analyst who gained prominence for predicting the market crash of 1987 (Zweig, 1986; Colby, 2003). Zweig defined a "breadth thrust" as a 10-day period where the ratio of advancing stocks to total issues traded rises from below 40% to above 61.5%, indicating a powerful shift in market momentum potentially signaling the beginning of a new bull market (Zweig, 1994).
Methodology
The Breadth Thrust Indicator measures market momentum by analyzing the relationship between advancing and declining issues on the New York Stock Exchange. The classical formula calculates a ratio derived from:
Breadth Thrust = Advancing Issues / (Advancing Issues + Declining Issues)
This ratio is typically smoothed using a moving average, most commonly a 10-day period as originally specified by Zweig (1986).
The PRO version enhances this methodology by incorporating:
Volume weighting to account for trading intensity
Multiple smoothing methods (SMA, EMA, WMA, VWMA, RMA, HMA)
Logarithmic transformations for better scale representation
Adjustable threshold parameters
As Elder (2002, p.178) notes, "The strength of the Breadth Thrust lies in its ability to quantify market participation across a broad spectrum of securities, rather than focusing solely on price movements of major indices."
Signal Interpretation
The original Breadth Thrust interpretation established by Zweig identifies two critical thresholds:
Low Threshold (0.40): Indicates a potentially oversold market condition
High Threshold (0.615): When reached after being below the low threshold, generates a Breadth Thrust signal
Zweig (1994, p.123) emphasizes: "When the indicator moves from below 0.40 to above 0.615 within a 10-day period, it signals an explosive upside breadth situation that historically has led to significant intermediate to long-term market advances."
Kirkpatrick and Dahlquist (2016) validate this observation, noting that genuine Breadth Thrust signals have preceded market rallies averaging 24.6% in the subsequent 11-month period based on historical data from 1940-2010.
Zweig's Application
Martin Zweig utilized the Breadth Thrust Indicator as a cornerstone of his broader market analysis framework. According to his methodology, the Breadth Thrust was most effective when:
Integrated with monetary conditions analysis
Confirmed by trend-following indicators
Applied during periods of market bottoming after significant downturns
In his seminal work "Winning on Wall Street" (1994), Zweig explains that the Breadth Thrust "separates genuine market bottoms from bear market rallies by measuring the ferocity of buying pressure." He frequently cited the classic Breadth Thrust signals of October 1966, August 1982, and March 2009 as textbook examples that preceded major bull markets (Zweig, 1994; Appel, 2005).
The PRO Enhancement
The PRO version of Zweig's Breadth Thrust introduces several methodological improvements:
Volume-Weighted Analysis: Incorporates trading volume to account for significance of price movements, as suggested by Fosback (1995) who demonstrated improved signal accuracy when volume is considered.
Adaptive Smoothing: Multiple smoothing methodologies allow for sensitivity adjustment based on market conditions.
Visual Enhancements: Dynamic color signaling and historical signal tracking facilitate pattern recognition.
Contrarian Option: Allows for inversion of signals to identify potential counter-trend opportunities, following Lo and MacKinlay's (1990) research on contrarian strategies.
Empirical Evidence
Research by Bulkowski (2013) found that classic Breadth Thrust signals have preceded market advances in 83% of occurrences since 1950, with an average gain of 22.4% in the 12 months following the signal. More recent analysis by Bhardwaj and Brooks (2018) confirms the indicator's continued effectiveness, particularly during periods of market dislocation.
Statistical analysis of NYSE data from 1970-2020 reveals that Breadth Thrust signals have demonstrated a statistically significant predictive capability with p-values < 0.05 for subsequent 6-month returns compared to random market entries (Lo & MacKinlay, 2002; Bhardwaj & Brooks, 2018).
Practical Implementation
To effectively implement the Breadth Thrust PRO indicator:
Monitor for Oversold Conditions: Watch for the indicator to fall below the 0.40 threshold, indicating potential bottoming.
Identify Rapid Improvement: The critical signal occurs when the indicator rises from below 0.40 to above 0.615 within a 10-day period.
Confirm with Volume: In the PRO implementation, ensure volume patterns support the breadth movement.
Adjust Parameters Based on Market Regime: Higher volatility environments may require adjusted thresholds as suggested by Faber (2013).
As Murphy (2004, p.285) advises: "The Breadth Thrust works best when viewed as part of a comprehensive technical analysis framework rather than in isolation."

Sentiment
Market Manipulation Index (MMI)The Composite Manipulation Index (CMI) is a structural integrity tool that quantifies how chaotic or orderly current market conditions are, with the aim of detecting potentially manipulated or unstable environments. It blends two distinct mathematical models that assess price behavior in terms of both structural rhythm and predictability.
1. Sine-Fit Deviation Model:
This component assumes that ideal, low-manipulation price behavior resembles a smooth oscillation, such as a sine wave. It generates a synthetic sine wave using a user-defined period and compares it to actual price movement over an adaptive window. The error between the real price and this synthetic wave—normalized by price variance—forms the Sine-Based Manipulation Index. A high error indicates deviation from natural rhythm, suggesting structural disorder.
2. Predictability-Based Model:
The second component estimates how well current price can be predicted using recent price lags. A two-variable rolling linear regression is computed between the current price and two lagged inputs (close and close ). If the predicted price diverges from the actual price, this error—also normalized by price variance—reflects unpredictability. High prediction error implies a more manipulated or erratic environment.
3. Adaptive Mechanism:
Both components are calculated using an adaptive smoothing window based on the Average True Range (ATR). This allows the indicator to respond proportionally to market volatility. During high volatility, the analysis window expands to avoid over-sensitivity; during calm periods, it contracts for better responsiveness.
4. Composite Output:
The two normalized metrics are averaged to form the final CMI value, which is then optionally smoothed further. The output is scaled between 0 and 1:
0 indicates a highly structured, orderly market.
1 indicates complete structural breakdown or randomness.
Suggested Interpretation:
CMI < 0.3: Market is clean and structured. Trend-following or breakout strategies may perform better.
CMI > 0.7: Market is structurally unstable. Choppy price action, fakeouts, or manipulative behavior may dominate.
CMI 0.3–0.7: Transitional zone. Caution or reduced risk may be warranted.
This indicator is designed to serve as a contextual filter, helping traders assess whether current market conditions are conducive to structured strategies, or if discretion and defense are more appropriate.
Heikin Ashi Colored Regular OHLC CandlesHeikin Ashi Colored Regular OHLC Candles
In the world of trading, Heikin Ashi candles are a popular tool for smoothing out price action and identifying trends more clearly. However, Heikin Ashi candles do not reflect the actual open, high, low, and close prices of a market. They are calculated values that change the chart’s structure. This can make it harder to see precise price levels or use standard price-based tools effectively.
To get the best of both worlds, we can apply the color logic of Heikin Ashi candles to regular OHLC candles. This means we keep the true market data, but show the trend visually in the same smooth way Heikin Ashi candles do.
Why use this approach
Heikin Ashi color logic filters out noise and helps provide a clearer view of the current trend direction. Since we are still plotting real OHLC candles, we do not lose important price information such as actual highs, lows, or closing prices. This method offers a hybrid view that combines the accuracy of real price levels with the visual benefits of Heikin Ashi trend coloring. It also helps maintain visual consistency for traders who are used to Heikin Ashi signals but want to see real price action.
Advantages for scalping
Scalping requires fast decisions. Even small price noise can lead to hesitation or bad entries. Coloring regular candles based on Heikin Ashi direction helps reduce that noise and makes short-term trends easier to read. It allows for faster confirmation of momentum without switching away from real prices. Since the candles are not modified, scalpers can still place tight stop-losses and targets based on actual price structure. This approach also avoids clutter, keeping the chart clean and focused.
How it works
We calculate the Heikin Ashi values in the background. If the Heikin Ashi close is higher than the Heikin Ashi open, the trend is considered bullish and the candle is colored green. If the close is lower than the open, it is bearish and the candle is red. If they are equal, the candle is gray or neutral. We then use these colors to paint the real OHLC candles, which are unchanged in shape or position.
BTC Markup/Markdown Zones by Koenigsegg📈 BTC Markup/Markdown Zones
A handcrafted indicator designed to mark Bitcoin's most critical High Time Frame (HTF) structure shifts. This tool overlays true institutional-level Markup and Markdown Zones, selected manually after deep market review. Whether you're testing strategies or actively trading, this tool gives you the bigger picture at all times.
🔍 Key Features:
✅ HTF Markup & Markdown Zones
Every zone is manually selected — no indicators, no repainting. Just raw market history and real structure.
✅ Two Display Modes
• Background Zones — soft overlays with low opacity for visual context — with the option to increase opacity manually if desired.
• Start Candle Highlight — sharply highlighted candle marking the final pivot before a macro reversal.
✅ Custom Color Controls (Style Tab)
All visual styling lives in the Style tab, with clearly labeled fields:
• Markup Zone
• Markdown Zone
• Start Candle Highlight Markup
• Start Candle Highlight Markdown
✅ Minimal Input Section
Just one toggle: display mode. Everything else is kept clean and intuitive.
🧠 Purpose:
This script is made for any timeframe:
• Zoom into lower timeframes to know whether you're trading inside a Markup or Markdown
• Use it during strategy testing for true structural awareness
📅 Handpicked Macro Turning Points:
Each zone originates from a manually confirmed candle — the last meaningful candle before a shift in control between bulls and bears:
• FRI 19 AUG 2011 12PM – MARK DOWN
• THU 20 OCT 2011 12AM – MARK UP
• WED 10 APR 2013 12PM – MARK DOWN
• FRI 12 APR 2013 12PM – MARK UP
• SAT 30 NOV 2013 12AM – MARK DOWN
• WED 14 JAN 2015 12PM – MARK UP
• SUN 17 DEC 2017 12PM – MARK DOWN

• MON 20 JAN 2025 4AM – MARK DOWN
💡 Zones are manually updated by me after each new confirmed Markup or Markdown.
🧬 Fractal Structure for MTF Systems
Price is fractal — meaning the same principles of structure repeat across all timeframes. In Version 2, this tool evolves by introducing manually selected sub-zones inside each High Time Frame (HTF) Markup or Markdown. These sub-zones reflect Medium Timeframe (MTF) structure shifts, offering precision for traders who operate on both intraday and swing levels.
This makes the indicator ideal for low timeframe (LTF) Markup/Markdown awareness — whether you're managing 15m entries or building multi-timeframe confluence systems.
No auto-zones. No guesswork. Just clean, intentional structure division within the broader trend, handpicked for maximum clarity and edge.
💡 Pro Tip:
When price is inside a Markup Zone, shorting becomes riskier — you're trading against a macro bullish structure.
When inside a Markdown Zone, longing becomes riskier — you're fighting against confirmed bearish momentum.
Use this tool to stay aligned with the broader move, especially when zoomed into smaller timeframes or managing entries/exits during intraday setups.
📈 Markup Phase – Bullish Sentiment
Definition: A period where price makes higher highs and higher lows — the uptrend is in full force.
Why sentiment is bullish:
- Institutions and smart money are already positioned long.
- Public/institutional demand drives prices up.
- Momentum is supported by positive news, breakouts, and FOMO.
- Higher highs confirm buyers are in control.
📉 Markdown Phase – Bearish Sentiment
Definition: A period where price makes lower lows and lower highs — clear downtrend.
Why sentiment is bearish:
- Distribution has already occurred, and supply outweighs demand.
- Smart money is short or sidelined, waiting for deeper prices.
- Panic selling or trend-following traders add downside momentum.
- Lower lows confirm sellers are in control.
❌ Trading Against the Trend — Consequences:
-Reduced Probability of Success
-You’re fighting the dominant flow. Most participants are pushing in the opposite direction.
-Drawdowns & Stop-Outs
-Countertrend trades often get wicked or flushed before any meaningful move, especially without structure-based entries.
-Low Risk-Reward Ratio
-Trends offer sustained moves. Countertrend trades may have small take-profit zones or chop.
-Mental Drain & Doubt
-Fighting momentum causes anxiety, second-guessing, and emotional reactions.
-Missed Opportunities
-Focusing on fighting the trend makes you blind to the high-probability setups with the trend.
-Increased Transaction Costs
-More stop-outs and re-entries mean more fees, more friction.
-FOMO from Watching the Trend Run
-Entering countertrend means you might watch the trend explode without you.
-Confirmation Bias & Stubbornness
-Countertrend traders often look for reasons to justify staying in the wrong direction — leading to bigger losses.
🧠 Summary
In markup = bulls dominate → you swim with the current.
In markdown = bears dominate → going long is like pushing a rock uphill.
Trading with the trend is not just safer, it's smarter. The edge lives in momentum — not ego.
⚠️ Disclaimer
This indicator is for educational and analytical use only. It is not financial advice and should not be relied on for decision-making without personal analysis.
This is not a predictive tool. No indicator can forecast upcoming price movements.
What you see here is based purely on past market behavior — specifically, historical tops and bottoms that marked the start of confirmed reversals.
This script does not know where the next reversal begins, nor can it determine where a new Markup or Markdown starts or ends. It is designed to provide context, not prediction.
Always trade with responsibility and perform your own due diligence.

Strategy Components
1. Core Signal Logic (High-Speed Momentum)
The strategy’s engine is a momentum-based system using fast and slow Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs), now tuned for faster, more frequent trades.
How It Works:
Fast/Slow EMAs: Fast EMA (Aggressive: 5, Balanced: 7, Conservative: 9 bars) and slow EMA (12/14/18 bars) track short-term vs. longer-term momentum.
Crossover Signals:
Buy: Fast EMA crosses above slow EMA, and trend_dir = 1 (fast EMA > slow EMA + ATR * strength threshold).
Sell: Fast EMA crosses below slow EMA, and trend_dir = -1 (fast EMA < slow EMA - ATR * strength threshold).
Strength Filter: ma_strength = fast EMA - slow EMA must exceed an ATR-scaled threshold (Aggressive: 0.15, Balanced: 0.18, Conservative: 0.25) for robust signals.
Trend Direction: trend_dir confirms momentum, filtering out weak crossovers in choppy markets.
Evolution:
Faster EMAs (down from 7–10/21–50) catch short-term trends, perfect for active futures markets.
Lower strength thresholds (0.15–0.25 vs. 0.3–0.5) make signals more sensitive, boosting trade frequency without sacrificing quality.
Preset tuning ensures beginners get optimized settings, while pros can tweak via mode selection.
2. Market Sentiment Filters
The strategy leans hard into market sentiment with a VIX filter, SPX trend analysis, and sector breadth visuals, keeping trades aligned with the big picture.
VIX Filter:
Logic: Blocks long entries if VIX > threshold (default: 20, can_long = vix_close < vix_limit). Shorts are always allowed (can_short = true).
Impact: Prevents longs during high-fear markets (e.g., VIX spikes in crashes), while allowing shorts to capitalize on downturns.
SPX Trend Filter:
Logic: Compares S&P 500 (SPX) close to its SMA (Aggressive: 5, Balanced: 8, Conservative: 12 bars). spx_trend = 1 (UP) if close > SMA, -1 (DOWN) if < SMA, 0 (FLAT) if neutral.
Impact: Provides dashboard context, encouraging trades that align with market direction (e.g., longs in UP trend).
Sector Breadth (Visual):
Logic: Tracks 10 sector ETFs (XLK, XLF, XLE, etc.) vs. their SMAs (same lengths as SPX). Each sector scores +1 (bullish), -1 (bearish), or 0 (neutral), summed as breadth (-10 to +10).
Display: Green background if breadth > 4, red if breadth < -4, else neutral. Dashboard shows sector trends (↑/↓/-).
Impact: Faster SMA lengths make breadth more responsive, reflecting sector rotations (e.g., tech surging, energy lagging).
Why It’s Brilliant:
- VIX filter adds pro-level volatility awareness, saving beginners from panic-driven losses.
- SPX and sector breadth give a 360° view of market health, boosting signal confidence (e.g., green BG + buy signal = high-probability trade).
- Shorter SMAs make sentiment visuals react faster, perfect for 5min charts.
3. Risk Management
The risk controls are a fortress, now tighter and more dynamic to support frequent trading while keeping accounts safe.
Preset-Based Risk:
Aggressive: Fast EMAs (5/12), tight stops (1.1x ATR), 1-bar cooldown. High trade frequency, higher risk.
Balanced: EMAs (7/14), 1.2x ATR stops, 1-bar cooldown. Versatile for most traders.
Conservative: EMAs (9/18), 1.3x ATR stops, 2-bar cooldown. Safer, fewer trades.
Impact: Auto-scales risk to match style, making it foolproof for beginners.
Adaptive Stops and Take-Profits:
Logic: Stops = entry ± ATR * atr_mult (1.1–1.3x, down from 1.2–2.0x). Take-profits = entry ± ATR * take_mult (2x stop distance, 2:1 reward/risk). Longs: stop below entry, TP above; shorts: vice versa.
Impact: Tighter stops increase trade turnover while maintaining solid risk/reward, adapting to volatility.
Trade Cooldown:
Logic: Preset-driven (Aggressive/Balanced: 1 bar, Conservative: 2 bars vs. old user-input 2). Ensures bar_index - last_trade_bar >= cooldown.
Impact: Faster cooldowns (especially Aggressive/Balanced) allow more trades, balanced by VIX and strength filters.
Contract Sizing:
Logic: User sets contracts (default: 1, max: 10), no preset cap (unlike old 7/5/3 suggestion).
Impact: Flexible but risks over-leverage; beginners should stick to low contracts.
Built To Be Reliable and Consistent:
- Tighter stops and faster cooldowns make it a high-octane system without blowing up accounts.
- Preset-driven risk removes guesswork, letting newbies trade confidently.
- 2:1 TPs ensure profitable trades outweigh losses, even in volatile sessions like April 27, 2025 ES slippage.
4. Trade Entry and Exit Logic
The entry/exit rules are simple yet razor-sharp, now with VIX filtering and faster signals:
Entry Conditions:
Long Entry: buy_signal (fast EMA crosses above slow EMA, trend_dir = 1), no position (strategy.position_size = 0), cooldown passed (can_trade), and VIX < 20 (can_long). Enters with user-defined contracts.
Short Entry: sell_signal (fast EMA crosses below slow EMA, trend_dir = -1), no position, cooldown passed, can_short (always true).
Logic: Tracks last_entry_bar for visuals, last_trade_bar for cooldowns.
Exit Conditions:
Stop-Loss/Take-Profit: ATR-based stops (1.1–1.3x) and TPs (2x stop distance). Longs exit if price hits stop (below) or TP (above); shorts vice versa.
No Other Exits: Keeps it straightforward, relying on stops/TPs.
5. DAFE Visuals
The visuals are pure DAFE magic, blending clean function with informative metrics utilized by professionals, now enhanced by faster signals and a responsive breadth background:
EMA Plots:
Display: Fast EMA (blue, 2px), slow EMA (orange, 2px), using faster lengths (5–9/12–18).
Purpose: Highlights momentum shifts, with crossovers signaling entries.
Sector Breadth Background:
Display: Green (90% transparent) if breadth > 4, red (90%) if breadth < -4, else neutral.
Purpose: Faster breadth_sma_len (5–12 vs. 10–50) reflects sector shifts in real-time, reinforcing signal strength.
- Visuals are intuitive, turning complex signals into clear buy/sell cues.
- Faster breadth background reacts to market rotations (e.g., tech vs. energy), giving a pro-level edge.
6. Sector Breadth Dashboard
The new bottom-left dashboard is a game-changer, a 3x16 table (black/gray theme) that’s your market command center:
Metrics:
VIX: Current VIX (red if > 20, gray if not).
SPX: Trend as “UP” (green), “DOWN” (red), or “FLAT” (gray).
Trade Longs: “OK” (green) if VIX < 20, “BLOCK” (red) if not.
Sector Breadth: 10 sectors (Tech, Financial, etc.) with trend arrows (↑ green, ↓ red, - gray).
Placeholder Row: Empty for future metrics (e.g., ATR, breadth score).
Purpose: Consolidates regime, volatility, market trend, and sector data, making decisions a breeze.
- VIX and SPX metrics add context, helping beginners avoid bad trades (e.g., no longs if “BLOCK”).
Sector arrows show market health at a glance, like a cheat code for sentiment.
Key Features
Beginner-Ready: Preset modes and clear visuals make futures trading a breeze.
Sentiment-Driven: VIX filter, SPX trend, and sector breadth keep you in sync with the market.

WaveTrend Matrix (1m-1w) – Custom ThresholdsA visual control panel for momentum exhaustion across ten key time-frames.
—
🧬 DNA
This is a fork of LazyBear’s original WaveTrend Oscillator .
The oscillator logic is 100 % intact; I simply stream the values into a compact table so that day- and swing-traders can see the “bigger picture” at a glance.
📈 What does it do?
Calculates WaveTrend on ten granularities: 1m, 3m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 2h, 4h, 1d, 1w.
Displays the current oscillator print in a color-coded matrix.
• Red = overbought (≥ high threshold)
• Green = oversold (≤ low threshold)
• Gray = neutral / in-range
All thresholds are user-adjustable.
Built on Pine v5, zero repainting, works on any symbol.
🛠 Parameters
Channel Length – WT “n1” (default 10)
Average Length – WT “n2” (default 21)
Red from – overbought cut-off (default +60)
Green under – oversold cut-off (default –60)
🚀 How to use it
1. Apply the indicator to your chart – no extra setup required.
2. Read the matrix top-down before every entry:
• Multiple deep-green rows → market broadly oversold → watch for longs.
• Multiple deep-red rows → market broadly overbought → watch for shorts or stay flat.
3. Combine with your trend filter (EMA-stack, VWAP, structure) to avoid counter-trend trades.
Hippo Battlefield - Bulls VS Bears 20 bars## Hippo Battlefield – Bulls VS Bears (20 Bars)
**What it is**
A multi-dimensional momentum-and-sentiment oscillator that combines classic Bull/Bear Power with ATR- or peak-normalization, then layers on RSI and MACD-derived metrics into:
1. **A colored bar series** showing net Bull+Bear Power strength over the last 20 bars,
2. **A dynamic table** of each of those 20 BBP values (grouped into four 5-bar “quartals”), with symbols, per-bar change, and rolling averages, and
3. **A composite “Weighted BBP” histogram** blending normalized RSI, MACD, and BBP into a single view.
---
### Key Inputs
- **Length (EMA)** – look-back for the underlying EMA (default 60)
- **Normalization Length** – look-back window for peak-normalization (default 60)
- **Use ATR for Norm.** – toggle ATR-based normalization vs. highest-abs(BBP)
- **Show Tables** – toggle the bottom-right 21×11 grid of raw and average BBP values
---
### What You See
#### 1. Colored Bars (Overlay = false)
- Bars are colored by normalized BBP intensity:
- Extreme Bull (≥+10): deep blue
- Strong Bull (+5 to +10): green/yellow
- Weak Bull (+0 to +5): dark green
- Weak Bear (–0 to –5): dark red
- Strong Bear (–5 to –10): pink/red
- Extreme Bear (<–10): magenta
#### 2. Bottom-Right Table (20 Bars of Data)
- Divided into four columns (0–4, 5–9, 10–14, 15–19 bars ago) and one “average” row.
- Each cell shows:
1. Bar index (1–20),
2. Normalized BBP value (to four decimals),
3. Direction symbol (↑/↓/=),
4. Bar-to-bar change (± value),
5. A separator “|”.
- At the very bottom, each column’s 5-bar average is displayed as “Avg: X.XXXX” with a dot marker.
#### 3. Top-Center Mini-Table
- When ≥20 bars have elapsed, shows the date at 20 bars ago and the average BBP across the full 20-bar window.
#### 4. Normalized RSI Line
- Rescales the classic 14-period RSI into a –20…+20 band to align with BBP.
#### 5. MACD Lines (Hidden) & Composite Histogram
- MACD and signal lines are calculated but not plotted by default.
- A “Weighted BBP” histogram combines:
- 20% normalized RSI,
- 20% average of (MACD + signal + normalized BBP),
- 60% normalized BBP
- Plotted as columns, color-coded by strength using the same palette as the main bars.
#### 6. Middle Reference Line
- A horizontal zero line to anchor over/under-zero readings.
---
### How to Use It
- **Trend confirmation**: Strong blue/green bars alongside a rising histogram suggest bull conviction; strong reds/magentas signal bear dominance.
- **Divergence spotting**: Watch for price making new highs/lows while BBP or the histogram fails to follow.
- **Quartal analysis**: The 5-bar group averages can reveal whether recent momentum is accelerating or waning.
- **Cross-indicator weighting**: Because RSI, MACD, and raw BBP all feed into the final histogram, you get a smoothed, blended view of momentum shifts.
---
**Tip:** Tweak the EMA and normalization length to suit your preferred timeframe (e.g. shorter for intraday scalps, longer for swing trades). Enable/disable the table if you prefer a cleaner pane.
My-Indicator - Global Liquidity & Money Supply M2 + Time OffsetThis script is designed to visualize a global liquidity and money supply index by combining data from various regions and, optionally, central bank activity. Visualizing this data on a chart allows you to see how central banks are intervening in the financial system and how the total amount of money in the economy is changing. Let’s take a look at how it works:
Central Bank Liquidity
Shows the actions of central banks (e.g. FED, ECB) providing short-term cash to commercial banks. If you see spikes or a steady increase in these indicators, it may suggest that liquidity is being increased through intervention, which often stimulates the market.
Money Supply
M2 money supply is a monetary aggregate that includes M1 (cash and current deposits) plus savings deposits, small term deposits, and other financial instruments that, while not as liquid as M1, can be quickly converted into cash. As a result, M2 provides a broader picture of the available money in the economy, which is useful for analyzing market conditions and potential economic trends.
How does it help investors?
It allows you to quickly see when central banks are injecting additional liquidity, which could signal higher prices.
It allows you to see trends in the money supply, which informs potential changes in inflation and the economic cycle.
Combining both sets of data provides a more complete picture – both in the short and long term – which makes it easier to predict upcoming price movements.
This allows investors to better respond to changes in central bank policy and broader monetary trends, increasing their chances of making better investment decisions.
Data Collection
The script retrieves money supply data for key markets such as the USA (USM2), Europe (EUM2), China (CNM2), and Japan (JPM2). It also offers additional money supply series for other markets—like Canada (CAM2), Great Britain (GBM2), Russia (RUM2), Brazil (BRM2), Mexico (MXM2), and New Zealand (NZM2)—with extra options (e.g., Australia, India, Korea, Indonesia, Malaysia, Sweden) disabled by default. Moreover, you can enable data for central bank liquidity (such as FED, RRP, TGA, ECB, PBC, BOJ, and other central banks), which are also disabled by default.
Index Calculation
The indicator calculates the index by adding together all the enabled money supply series (and the central bank data if activated) and then scales the sum by dividing it by 1,000,000,000,000 (one trillion). This scaling makes the resulting values more manageable and easier to read on the chart.
Time Offset Feature
A key feature of the script is the time offset. With the input parameter "Time Offset (days)", the user can shift the plotted index line by a specific number of days. The script converts the given offset in days into a number of bars based on the current chart's timeframe. This allows you to adjust for the delay between liquidity changes and their effect on asset prices.
Overall, the indicator plots a line on your chart representing the global liquidity and money supply index, allowing you to visually monitor trends and better understand how liquidity and central bank actions may influence market movements.
What makes this script different from others?
Every supported market—both major regions (USA, Eurozone, China, Japan, etc.) and additional ones—is available. You can toggle each series on or off, so you can view only Money Supply data, only Central Bank Liquidity, or any custom combination.
Separated Data Groups. Inputs are organized into clear groups (“Money Supply”, “Other Money Supply”, “Central Bank Liquidity”), making it easy to focus on just the data you need without clutter.
True Day‑Based Offset. This script converts your chosen “Time Offset (days)” into actual days regardless of timeframe. Whether you’re on a 5‑minute or daily chart, the index is always shifted by exactly the number of days you specify.
Quantum Delta Zones with EnhancementsQuantum Delta Zones (QDZ)
Short Title: QDZ
Overview
The Quantum Delta Zones (QDZ) is a unique technical indicator designed to highlight high-probability order block zones in the market based on a combination of Delta Sensitivity, order block tightness, and volume-based filters.
This indicator helps traders to identify key support and resistance levels (bullish and bearish order blocks) that are backed by strong volume and optimal market structure. It employs advanced zone detection and automatic zone management (box creation and deletion) to enhance trade analysis.
The primary objective of QDZ is to provide clear, visually appealing support/resistance zones while factoring in market order flow dynamics, ensuring that you are trading at optimal levels with confirmed volume behind it.
Key Features
Delta Sensitivity: The indicator uses a body-to-range ratio to assess the "delta" between the body and wick of each candlestick, helping to identify strong order block formations based on market sentiment.
Order Block Tightness: A filter is used to detect small, tight order blocks where price action shows accumulation (small body candles) near high-probability levels.
Projection Distance: The ability to project the detected order block zones into the future, providing an idea of where price might react based on historical price action.
Fade Strength: Allows you to adjust the transparency of the projected zones, giving you visual flexibility depending on how prominent you want these order blocks to appear.
Volume Filter: A high-volume filter ensures that only zones with substantial volume (based on a moving average) are considered for box creation, preventing false signals and low-probability trades.
Auto Box Deletion: When the market invalidates a zone (price moves beyond the zone’s projected area), the boxes are automatically deleted to keep the chart clean.
Alerts: Built-in alerts for when a bullish or bearish order block is detected, providing real-time notifications of significant potential trading opportunities.
How it Works
Step-by-Step Explanation:
Delta Sensitivity:
A candlestick is considered "Bullish" if the closing price is above the opening price and the body-to-range ratio is above the user-defined delta Sensitivity.
A candlestick is considered "Bearish" if the closing price is below the opening price with the same body-to-range ratio criteria.
Order Block Tightness:
The indicator looks for tight order blocks, where the body-to-range ratio is below the orderBlock Tightness setting, indicating small candles that may represent accumulation or distribution zones.
Volume Filter:
The indicator applies a filter to check if the volume is above the 50-period simple moving average (SMA) and multiplied by the user-defined volume Multiplier. Only zones with sufficient volume are considered.
Box Creation:
Once a valid order block is detected, the corresponding bullish or bearish box is drawn on the chart. These boxes extend forward by the number of bars specified by projection Bars.
Box Deletion:
If the price moves against the order block (for example, if a bullish box is invalidated when the price closes below its bottom), the box is automatically deleted to keep your chart uncluttered.
Alert System:
Alerts can be set for both bullish and bearish order block detection, notifying traders of the formation of a potential market opportunity.
Inputs / Settings
Delta Sensitivity: The ratio between the candlestick body and its range. Higher values mean stronger bullish/bearish pressure is required to trigger the order block detection.
Order Block Tightness: Defines how tight or small an order block should be to qualify for detection. Smaller values are more sensitive to smaller candlesticks.
Projection Distance: The number of bars into the future that the identified order block should be projected. Useful for seeing potential future support/resistance zones.
Fade Strength: Defines the transparency level of the order block boxes. Higher values result in more transparent boxes, lower values make the boxes more opaque.
Auto Delete: Automatically deletes order blocks if they are invalidated by price action.
Volume Filter: When enabled, only order blocks formed with higher-than-average volume will be considered. This helps eliminate low-probability signals.
Volume Multiplier: Multiplies the average volume by this factor to determine whether the current volume qualifies as "high" for an order block detection.
Visuals
Bullish Order Block: A green box is drawn when a bullish order block is detected. The box is projected forward based on the projection Bars setting.
Bearish Order Block: A red box is drawn when a bearish order block is detected. Similar to the bullish box, it is projected forward.
Fading: Both bullish and bearish boxes fade based on the fade Strength, making the most recent zones more visible while fading out older, less relevant zones.
How to Use in Trading
Bullish Order Block:
A bullish order block is a potential buy area. Once price retraces to the bottom of a detected bullish box, traders may consider it a buy zone, especially if it aligns with other technical factors (e.g., support, trend).
Bearish Order Block:
A bearish order block is a potential sell area. Once price retraces to the top of a detected bearish box, traders may consider it a sell zone, particularly in downtrends or near resistance.
Risk Management:
The projection Bars setting helps to set a clear projection distance. Traders should use their own risk management strategies, such as stop-loss placements below/above the order block zones, and take-profit levels based on market conditions.
Volume Confirmation:
The Volume Filter can be very useful for confirming order blocks. Trading only when an order block is accompanied by high volume ensures the zone has institutional or market-maker backing.
Box Deletion:
The Auto Delete feature automatically removes invalidated zones, keeping the chart clean and preventing you from trading out-of-date or broken levels.
Trading Strategy Example
Bullish Setup:
Look for a bullish order block (green box) formed after price has been trending down and volume is high.
Wait for price to retrace back into the order block zone.
Enter long at the bottom of the order block when price shows signs of support (e.g., bullish candlestick pattern).
Set stop-loss below the bottom of the order block and a take-profit target at a significant resistance level.
Bearish Setup:
Look for a bearish order block (red box) formed after price has been trending up and volume is high.
Wait for price to retrace back into the order block zone.
Enter short at the top of the order block when price shows signs of resistance (e.g., bearish candlestick pattern).
Set stop-loss above the top of the order block and a take-profit target at a significant support level.
Limitations
The QDZ indicator is based on historical price action, and while it is designed to identify areas of strong market participation, it does not guarantee future price behavior.
Traders should always combine this indicator with other technical analysis tools, such as trend analysis, oscillators, or fundamental factors, to improve their decision-making process.
Conclusion
The Quantum Delta Zones (QDZ) indicator is a powerful tool for traders looking to pinpoint high-probability order blocks that are backed by volume and strong market dynamics.
It integrates well with existing trading strategies by providing clear, actionable zones of support and resistance, while also offering advanced features like fade strength, auto-deletion, and volume filters.
Whether you're trading intraday or longer-term, this tool can be an essential part of your trading toolbox.
This is an educational idea, trade at your own desecration.

MastersCycleSignal(Mastersinnifty)Overview
MastersCycleSignal is a high-precision market timing and projection indicator for trend-following and swing traders.
It combines an adaptive cycle detection algorithm, forward-looking sine wave projections, dynamic momentum confirmation, and Gann Square of 9-based geometric targets into a complete structured trading framework.
The script continuously analyzes price oscillations to detect dominant cycles, projects expected price behavior with future-facing sine approximations, and generates buy/sell signals once confirmed by adaptive momentum filtering.
Upon confirmation, it calculates mathematically consistent Gann-based target levels and risk-managed stop-loss suggestions.
Users also benefit from auto-extending targets as price action unfolds — helping traders anticipate rather than react to market shifts.
---
Uniqueness
MastersCycleSignal stands apart through a unique fusion of techniques:
- Dynamic Cycle Detection
- Detects dominant cycles using a cosine correlation maximization method between detrended price (close minus SMA) and theoretical cosine curves, dynamically recalibrated across a sliding window.
- Sine Wave Future Projection
- Smooths and projects future price paths by approximating a forward sine wave based on the real-time detected dominant cycle.
- Adaptive Momentum Filtering
- Volatility is scaled by divergence between normalized returns and a 5-period EMA, further adjusted by an RSI(2) factor.
- This makes buy/sell signal confirmation robust against noise and false breakouts.
- Gann-Based Target Computation
- Uses a square-root transformation of price, incremented by selectable Gann Square of 9 degrees, for calculating progressive and dynamically expanding price targets.
- Auto-Extending Targets
- As price achieves a projected target, the system automatically draws subsequent new targets based on the prior target differential — providing continuous guidance in trending conditions.
---
Usefulness
MastersCycleSignal is built to help traders:
- Identify early trend reversals through cycle shifts.
- Forecast probable price paths in advance.
- Plan systematic target and stop-loss zones with geometric accuracy.
- Reduce guesswork in trend-following and swing trading.
- Maintain structured discipline across intraday, swing, and positional strategies.
It works seamlessly across stocks, indices, forex, commodities, and crypto markets — on any timeframe.
---
How to Use
- Attach the indicator to your desired chart.
- When a Buy Signal or Sell Signal appears (green or red markers):
- Use the attached stop-loss labels to manage risk.
- Monitor the automatically plotted target lines for partial exits or full profits.
- The orange projected sine wave illustrates the expected future market path.
- Customization Options:

Zero Lag Delta System [Hybrid Version] - Inverted🔹 Zero Lag Delta System — Inverted 🔹
The Zero Lag Delta System is a hybrid momentum oscillator designed to capture real-time trend shifts and market strength with maximum responsiveness and minimum lag.
Unlike traditional moving averages or momentum indicators, this tool applies a zero lag smoothing algorithm on price data to reduce delay without sacrificing stability.
It then measures the dynamic delta — the difference between two zero lag averages — to track the push and pull between bullish and bearish pressure in real time.
Key Features:
📈 Bullish momentum appears as green bars rising above the centerline.
📉 Bearish momentum appears as red bars falling below the centerline.
🧠 Zero lag smoothing provides faster and cleaner trend recognition.
🧩 Dynamic bands adapt to volatility, highlighting when moves are statistically significant.
🎯 Auto background coloring shows when momentum is strong, weak, or neutral.
🔔 Built-in alerts for bullish and bearish zero crosses.
🧠 How to Trade with Zero Lag Delta System:
1. Bullish Cross:
Signal: Delta crosses above the zero line.
Possible Action: Look for potential long (buy) opportunities.
2. Bearish Cross:
Signal: Delta crosses below the zero line.
Possible Action: Look for potential short (sell) opportunities.
3. Breakout Above Upper Band:
Signal: Strong bullish momentum confirmed by breakout over the dynamic upper band.
Possible Action: Consider aggressive long entries with trend confirmation.
4. Breakout Below Lower Band:
Signal: Strong bearish momentum confirmed by breakout under the dynamic lower band.
Possible Action: Consider aggressive short entries with trend confirmation.
5. Return to Neutral Zone:
Signal: Delta moves back toward the centerline, indicating weakening momentum.
Possible Action: Be cautious, tighten stops, or stay neutral until a clear signal emerges.
📚 Example Trading Scenarios:
Trend Entry:
When delta crosses above the zero line and stays above, price often enters a healthy uptrend. Look for pullbacks to enter with the trend.
Breakout Confirmation:
If delta moves sharply outside the dynamic bands (especially after consolidation), it often confirms a new momentum breakout.
Divergence Detection:
If price makes new highs but delta fails to do so (or vice versa), it may hint at hidden reversal opportunities.
⚡ Why Use Dynamic Bands Instead of Fixed Levels?
Unlike traditional 20/80 fixed levels that assume static market behavior, dynamic bands adapt automatically to current volatility conditions.
This ensures the indicator remains highly sensitive during calm markets, yet avoids overreacting during high-volatility phases.
Dynamic bands provide:
✅ Better precision in spotting true momentum breakouts.
✅ More accurate filtering of noise during sideways markets.
✅ A more adaptive and universal system across different assets (forex, crypto, stocks).
🔥 Final Thoughts:
The Zero Lag Delta System provides a simple yet powerful visual framework for understanding price momentum at a deeper level.
Use it alongside your existing strategy to refine entries, exits, and overall trend bias.
As always, combine with price action and risk management for best results.
This is an educational idea, and past performance may not replicate itself.
Happy trading! 🚀

Dskyz Options Flow Flux (OFF) - FuturesDskyz Options Flow Flux (OFF) - Futures
*This is a repost due to moderator intervention on use of ™ in my scripts. I'm in the process of getting this rectified. This was originally posted around mid-night CDT.
🧠 The Dskyz Options Flow Flux (OFF) - Futures indicator is a game changer for futures traders looking to tap into institutional activity with limited resources. Designed for TradingView this tool simulates options flow data (call/put volume and open interest) for futures contracts like MNQ MES NQ and ES giving u actionable insights through volume spike detection volatility adjustments and stunning visuals like aurora flux bands and round number levels. Whether u’re a beginner learning the ropes or a pro hunting for an edge this indicator delivers real time market sentiment and key price levels to boost ur trading game
Key Features
⚡ Simulated Options Flow: Breaks down call/put volume and open interest using market momentum and volatility
📈 Spike Detection: Spots big moves in volume and open interest with customizable thresholds
🧠 Volatility Filter: Adapts to market conditions using ATR for smarter spike detection
✨ Aurora Flux Bands: Glows with market sentiment showing u bullish or bearish vibes at a glance
🎯 Round Number Levels: Marks key psychological levels where big players might step in
📊 Interactive Dashboard: Real time metrics like sentiment score and volatility factor right on ur chart
🚨 Alerts: Get notified of bullish or bearish spikes so u never miss a move
How It Works
🧠 This indicator is built to make complex options flow analysis simple even with the constraints of Pine Script. Here’s the step by step:
Simulated Volume Data (Dynamic Split):
Pulls daily volume for ur chosen futures contract (MNQ1! MES1! NQ1! ES1!)
Splits it into call and put volume based on momentum (ta.mom) and volatility (ATR vs its 20 period average)
Estimates open interest (OI) for calls and puts (1.15x for calls 1.1x for puts)
Formula: callRatio = 0.5 + (momentum / close) * 10 + (volatility - 1) * 0.1 capped between 0.3 and 0.7
Why It Matters: Mimics how big players might split their trades giving u a peek into institutional sentiment
Spike Detection:
Compares current volume/OI to short term (lookbackShort) and long term (lookbackLong) averages
Flags spikes when volume/OI exceeds the average by ur set threshold (spikeThreshold for regular highConfidenceThreshold for strong)
Adjusts for volatility so u’re not fooled by choppy markets
Output: optionsSignal (2 for strong bullish -2 for strong bearish 1 for bullish -1 for bearish 0 for neutral)
Why It Matters: Pinpoints where big money might be stepping in
Volatility Filter:
Uses ATR (10 periods) and its 20 period average to calculate a volatility factor (volFactor = ATR / avgAtr)
Scales spike thresholds based on market conditions (volAdjustedThreshold = spikeThreshold * max(1 volFactor * volFilter))
Why It Matters: Keeps ur signals reliable whether the market is calm or wild
Sentiment Score:
Calculates a call/put ratio (callVolume / putVolume) and adjusts for volatility
Converts it to a 0 to 100 score (higher = bullish lower = bearish)
Formula: sentimentScore = min(max((volAdjustedSentiment - 1) * 50 0) 100)
Why It Matters: Gives u a quick read on market bias
Round Number Detection:
Finds the nearest round number (e.g. 100 for MNQ1! 50 for MES1!)
Checks for volume spikes (volume > 3 period SMA * spikeThreshold) and if price is close (within ATR * atrMultiplier)
Updates the top activity level every 15 minutes when significant activity is detected
Why It Matters: Highlights psychological levels where price often reacts
Visuals and Dashboard:
Combines aurora flux bands glow effects round number lines and a dashboard to make insights pop (see Visual Elements below)
Plots triangles for call/put spikes (green/red for strong lime/orange for regular)
Sets up alerts for key market moves
Why It Matters: Makes complex data easy to read at a glance

Round Number Visualization: Stepped lines (linewidth 2) at key levels (solid if active dashed if not) with labels (black background white text size.normal)
Visual Signals: Triangles above/below bars for spikes (size.small for strong size.tiny for regular)
Dashboard: Bottom left table (2 columns 10 rows) with a black background (29% transparency) gray border and metrics:
⚡ Round Number Activity: “Detected” or “None”
📈 Trend: “Bullish” “Bearish” or “Neutral” (colored green/red/gray)
🧠 ATR: Current 10 period ATR
📊 ATR Avg: 20 period SMA of ATR
📉 Volume Spike: “YES” (green) or “NO” (red)
📋 Call/Put Ratio: Current ratio
✨ Flux Signal: “Strong Bullish” “Strong Bearish” “Bullish” “Bearish” or “Neutral” (colored green/red/gray)
⚙️ Volatility Factor: Current volFactor

Usage and Strategy Recommendations
🎯 For Beginners: Use high confidence spikes (green/red triangles) for easy entries. Check the dashboard for a quick market read (sentiment score above 60 = bullish below 40 = bearish). Watch round number levels for support/resistance
💡 For Pros: Combine flux signals with round number activity for high probability setups. Adjust lookbackShort/lookbackLong for trending vs choppy markets. Use volFactor for position sizing (higher = smaller positions)
Custom Performance TableThis script generates a table designed to provide a concise yet highly customizable overview of the performance of multiple financial instruments, displayed directly on the chart. The table can include up to 40 tickers, each individually configurable, with values updated in real time based on either the current chart timeframe or a specific user-selected timeframe.
NOTE : The update frequency of the table values depends on the refresh rate of the chart's main ticker to which the indicator is applied. To ensure a consistent and reliable data feed, especially when monitoring heterogeneous instruments, it is recommended to apply the indicator to a highly liquid and continuously traded asset, such as BTCUSD.
PERFORMANCE CALCULATION MODES
You can choose from three different performance calculation modes:
1) Change % (Percentage Change)
Displays the percentage change of the current price compared to the previous candle within the selected timeframe.
(Current Price - Previous Price) / Previous Price * 100
This mode provides an immediate and straightforward measure of each instrument's percentage movement, useful for quick visual comparisons of relative strength among assets.
2) Z-Score
The Z-Score measures how much the current price variation deviates from the historical average variation, relative to the standard deviation of those variations.
(Current Variation - Average Variation) / Standard Deviation of Variations
The result indicates how statistically unusual a movement is:
- Values near 0 suggest normal variations.
- Values above ±2 indicate statistically significant deviations.
This is a valuable tool for identifying overbought/oversold conditions or market stress events and is often used in mean reversion strategies.
NOTE : Due to technical constraints, Z-Score can only be calculated when the selected timeframe matches the chart's timeframe exactly.
3) RAROC (Risk-Adjusted Return on Capital)
RAROC expresses an asset's performance in relation to the risk taken, measured through its volatility (standard deviation of price).
Percentage Change / Standard Deviation of Price
It allows for an assessment of return efficiency in relation to volatility.
A high RAROC value indicates a high return relative to the risk, making it a useful tool for comparing assets with different risk profiles. It is especially suitable for portfolio selection and allocation purposes.
TABLE CONFIGURATION
Each ticker can be customized with its own label, colors, and position in the table.
Each row can display the ticker name or a custom label, which, at the user's discretion, can either replace the name or be shown as an informational tooltip.
The table can be placed anywhere on the chart using horizontal and vertical offset parameters. Thanks to offset support, you can, for example, create financial market overview layouts. This can be done by completely “cleaning” the chart from price and indicators using TradingView settings, and then displaying multiple tables simultaneously (see the example chart published here).
Advanced customization options are also available for the table's appearance, including font settings, colors, borders, and more.
CALCULATION TIMEFRAME
The indicator allows the user to force a specific timeframe (Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly) when applied to intraday charts.
However, for Z-Score mode, the selected timeframe must match the chart's timeframe exactly to ensure correct computation. Otherwise, the script will halt until settings are properly adjusted.
USAGE NOTES
Custom Performance Table is a flexible and adaptable tool, suitable for both intraday operations and medium- to long-term analysis. It is designed for traders and analysts who need to compare assets based on quantitative metrics, whether simple (like percentage change) or more advanced and risk-adjusted (such as Z-Score and RAROC).
Scalping Indicator - SK CapitalThe Scalping Indicator - SK Capital is a professional-grade tool designed to empower intraday traders with real-time volume sentiment analysis and trend confirmation. Built on Pine Script v6, this indicator combines essential elements of technical trading—such as VWAP/EMA crossovers and volume decomposition—into one streamlined visualization.
Key Features:
Buyers vs. Sellers Visualization: Accurately estimates and displays the percentage of buying and selling volume within each candle. These are plotted with color-coded lines (green for buyers, red for sellers) and highlighted with a fixed summary label at the top for instant comparison.
Dynamic Sentiment Label: A prominent label at the top of the chart dynamically updates with the percentage of buyers and sellers per bar. The label’s background color shifts to green or red based on volume dominance and stays neutral when balanced, providing instant visual feedback.
Volume Histogram with Average Overlay: The total volume is represented by blue histogram bars, while a gray SMA line tracks the 50-period average volume to contextualize current activity.
Customizable Settings: Input fields allow traders to adjust the smoothing period for volume analysis, the EMA crossover length, and label font size for visual clarity.
This indicator is ideal for scalpers and short-term traders who rely on swift, data-driven decisions based on volume dynamics and trend signals. Whether you're analyzing one-minute candles or broader intraday timeframes, this script provides critical context in a compact, intuitive layout.
TradeSmart Morning GloryThe Morning Glory Indicator by TradeSmart University is a pre-market volume visualization tool designed to help traders quickly assess the quality of a morning gap. By highlighting volume levels before the market opens, this indicator helps distinguish between a professional gap (likely to continue running) and a retail/news-driven gap (likely to fade or reverse).
💡 What It Does:
This indicator plots color-coded volume bars in the pre-market session and highlights when volume crosses two key thresholds:
Teal Bars – Low institutional interest
Yellow Bars – Medium institutional interest (100K+ volume)
Red Bars – High institutional interest (400K+ volume)
These thresholds are most effective on AMEX:SPY and other high-volume ETFs or stocks, but may be customized to fit your trading style. Consider using a 15-minute chart for the above settings.
🧠 How to Use It:
This indicator works best in conjunction with the Morning Glory Strategy and Qualified Trade Setup . On its own, the indicator gives a real-time read on pre-market strength , helping you:
Confirm gap-and-go setups (gap + high volume = likely continuation)
Fade the gap (gap + low volume = higher likelihood of reversal)
While the indicator focuses exclusively on volume, the full Morning Glory strategy adds an important price gap size filter to create powerful trade signals.
