Institutional Support/Resistance Locator🏛️ Institutional Support/Resistance Locator
Overview
The Institutional Support/Resistance Locator identifies high-probability demand and supply zones based on strong price rejection, large candle bodies, and elevated volume . These zones are commonly targeted or defended by institutional participants, helping traders anticipate potential reversal or continuation areas.
⸻
How It Works
The indicator uses a confluence of conditions to detect zones:
• Large Body Candles: Body size must exceed the moving average body size multiplied by a user-defined factor.
• High Volume: Volume must exceed the moving average volume by a configurable multiplier.
• Wick Rejection: Candles must show strong upper or lower wicks indicating aggressive rejection.
• If all criteria are met:
• Bullish candles form a Demand Zone.
• Bearish candles form a Supply Zone.
Each zone is plotted for a customizable number of future bars, representing areas where institutions may re-engage with the market.
⸻
Key Features
• ✅ Highlights institutional demand and supply areas dynamically
• ✅ Customizable sensitivity: body, volume, wick, padding, and zone extension
• ✅ Zones plotted as translucent regions with auto-expiry
• ✅ Works across all timeframes and markets
⸻
How to Use
• Trend Traders: Use demand zones for potential bounce entries in uptrends, and supply zones for pullback short entries in downtrends.
• Range Traders: Use zones as potential reversal points inside sideways market structures.
• Scalpers & Intraday Traders: Combine with volume or price action near zones for refined entries.
Always validate zone reactions with supporting indicators or price behavior.
⸻
Why This Combination?
The combination of wick rejection, volume confirmation, and large candle structure is designed to reflect footprints of smart money. Rather than relying on fixed pivots or subjective zones, this logic adapts to the current market context with statistically grounded conditions.
⸻
Why It’s Worth Using
This tool offers traders a structured way to interpret institutional activity on charts without relying on guesswork. By plotting potential high-impact areas, it helps improve reaction time.

Volume NodesVolume Nodes Indicator:
What This Indicator Does:
The Volume Nodes indicator identifies and visualizes statistically significant volume events on your chart, helping you identify important price levels where substantial trading activity has occurred. Unlike standard volume indicators, Volume Nodes:
Uses statistical analysis (z-scores) to identify truly abnormal volume bars
Calculates accurate buy/sell volume ratios by analyzing all lower timeframe data
Identifies the Volume Point of Control (VPOC) for high volume areas
Visualizes significant volume ranges as they extend across the chart
Tracks when price interacts with these important levels
Key Features:
High Volume Detection: Highlights bars with unusually high volume (z-score above threshold)
Low Volume Detection: Highlights bars with unusually low volume (z-score below threshold)
VPOC Lines: Horizontal lines showing the exact price level with maximum volume concentration
Volume Range Fills: Shaded areas showing the entire price range with significant volume
Accurate Volume Metrics: Shows true buy/sell volume ratios or delta percentages derived from lower timeframe data
How to Use It in Your Trading: **Move to front in the visual order on chart**
Step 1: Identify Important Volume Zones
High Volume Bars (green/red candles) indicate where significant buying or selling has occurred
VPOC Lines extending from these bars show you the exact price level with highest volume
Range Fills show you the entire zone where significant volume occurred
Step 2: Use These Levels for Trading Decisions
Support/Resistance: VPOC lines often act as support or resistance levels
Breakout Validation: Breakouts on high volume are more likely to be valid
Low Volume Warning: Low volume bars (yellow) often indicate indecision or potential reversals
Trading with Volume Flow: Use the buy/sell ratio or delta % to confirm the strength and direction of moves
Step 3: Monitor Price Interaction with Volume Zones
When price approaches a VPOC line, watch for reaction (bounce or breakout)
When price enters a volume range area, increased volatility often follows
When price crosses a VPOC line, the line changes transparency indicating it's been tested
Tips for Optimal Use
Higher Timeframes: The indicator works exceptionally well on higher timeframes (4H, daily, weekly) where volume patterns are more significant
Range Trading: Use volume nodes to identify the boundaries of trading ranges
Combine with Price Action: Look for price action confirmation (rejections, engulfing patterns) at VPOC levels
Multiple Timeframe Analysis: Compare volume nodes across different timeframes to find confluent levels
Alert Setup: Set up alerts for when price enters important volume zones or crosses VPOC lines
Reversal Signals: High volume bars with significant wicks often signal exhaustion points where smart money is transferring positions. Bullish candles with long upper wicks suggest sellers absorbing buying pressure at highs, while bearish candles with long lower wicks indicate buyers stepping in at lows - both potentially signaling momentum shifts that precede reversals.
The indicator is particularly valuable for identifying levels where large players have been active in the market and are likely to defend or act again in the future.
TradeDots - Buy Sell Signals ProThe TradeDots - Buy Sell Signals Pro is an advanced technical analysis tool engineered to identify key market turning points and trend continuations. By combining multiple confirmation methods, this indicator provides traders with a comprehensive system for recognizing high-probability entry and exit points across various market conditions.
📝 HOW IT WORKS
Enhanced Supertrend Implementation
Unlike the traditional Supertrend indicator that simply changes color when price crosses above or below a calculated line, our implementation incorporates multiple layers of confirmation:
Advanced Calculation: Uses an enhanced ATR-based algorithm that incorporates trend bias detection and momentum filtering
Multi-Factor Confirmation: Considers price interaction with previous Supertrend values, not just current crossovers
Contextual Awareness: Distinguishes between different entry types based on market risk levels and momentum conditions
Visual Enhancement: Provides background shading to clearly indicate trend direction and strength
Smart Trendline Algorithm
The indicator employs a proprietary Smart Trendline that adapts to market conditions using an advanced moving average system. Unlike traditional moving averages that simply track price, the Smart Trendline incorporates volatility data to change colors based on momentum strength, providing immediate visual feedback about the current market phase with zero lag.
Calculation: Processes price data through selectable advanced calculation methods (including Hull, Jurik, and McGinley averages) with dynamic color-coding based on a modified Keltner Channel system.
Visualization: Green indicates strong bullish momentum, purple represents bearish momentum, and gray signals consolidation or uncertain conditions.
Multi-Signal Confirmation System
The indicator integrates three distinct signal mechanisms to confirm trading opportunities:
1. RSI-Sequential Reversal Signals: Combines RSI levels with seq count patterns to identify potential short-term reversals.
Calculation: Analyzes RSI conditions against specific thresholds while tracking consecutive pattern formations.
Visualization: Green triangles for buy signals and red triangles for sell signals.
2. Statistical Reversal Signals: Identifies statistically significant deviations from normal price behavior.
Calculation: Uses a modified standard deviation approach to determine when price has moved too far from its statistical average.
Visualization: Large green arrows emoji for powerful buy signals and red arrows emoji for powerful sell signals.
3. Supply & Demand Zone Detection: Automatically identifies key price levels where significant buying or selling pressure may exist.
Calculation: Uses RSI extremes combined with confirmation periods to establish high-probability reversal zones.
Visualization: Green-filled areas mark support (demand) zones and red-filled areas mark resistance (supply) zones.
Buy/Sell Signal Generation
The system generates several types of signals with varying strengths:
1. Regular Buy/Sell Signals: Generated when:
Price crosses with MA above/below the Supertrend line
RSI conditions confirm the direction
Candlestick patterns support the signal direction (bullish/bearish candle formation)
Visualized as green/red triangles
2. Strong Buy/Sell Signals: Appear when multiple confirmation factors align:
Regular buy/sell condition is met
Price is interacting with a Supply/Demand zone
Additional momentum confirmation from auxiliary indicators
Seq count reaches significant levels
Statistical Reversal signal confirms the direction
3. Breakout Signals: Special case signals that appear during:
Trend transitions after consolidation
When price breaks through significant resistance/support levels from previous trend
Following pattern completions that suggest increased momentum
Market Structure Analysis
The indicator categorizes market conditions and provides visual cues for traders:
Trend Identification: Supertrend-based algorithm with enhanced visual presentation identifies the prevailing market direction.
Bar Coloring System: Candles change color based on price position relative to EMAs to clearly display strength and direction of momentum
🛠️ HOW TO USE
Signal Interpretation
Buy Signals: "Buy" signals, Green triangles (RSI-Sequential) and large green arrows (Statistical Reversals) appear at potential buy points.
Sell Signals: "Sell" signals, Red triangles (RSI-Sequential) and large red arrows (Statistical Reversals) appear at potential sell points.
Highest Probability Entries: Occur when signals appear near or within Supply & Demand zones.
Trading Strategies
Trend-Following Strategy
1. Identify the main trend using the Smart Trendline color
2. Enter long positions during uptrends when:
Price pulls back to the Smart Trendline
Green triangles or arrows appear
Signals occur near green demand zones
3. Enter short positions during downtrends when:
Price bounces up to the Smart Trendline
Red triangles or arrows appear
Signals occur near red supply zones
Counter-Trend/Reversal Strategy
1. Look for Statistical Reversal arrows at significant price extremes
2. Confirm with an RSI-Sequential signal in the same direction
3. Pay special attention when these signals appear inside Supply & Demand zones
4. Use the Smart Trendline color change as additional confirmation
Multiple Confirmation Technique
For highest probability trades, look for:
Signal alignment (both signal types in same direction)
Supply/Demand zone interaction
Smart Trendline color supporting the signal direction
❗️LIMITATIONS
Signal Lag: The system identifies reversals after they have begun, potentially missing the absolute bottom or top.
False Signals: Can occur during periods of high volatility or range-bound markets.
Timeframe Sensitivity: Some signals work better on higher timeframes for long-term trading, while others are more effective on lower timeframes for short-term trading.
Bar Closing Requirement: All signals are based on closed candles and may be subject to change until the candle closes.

By combining multiple analytical elements in a single view, this screener empowers traders with the insights needed to navigate the market more effectively.
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The S&D Screener helps traders identify Supply & Demand Zones on multiple tickers & timeframes. It offers customizable settings to adapt to different trading styles. The screener includes two zone detection methods. The Momentum Method identifies zones based on strong bullish or bearish price movements, making it ideal for traders who seek quick market reactions. The Regression Method uses statistical regression to detect zones by analyzing price deviations from the trend, which is more suitable for long-term traders. You can customize your zone preferences and enable up to 8 tickers and their respective timeframes. You'll be able to see the status of the latest detected zones on that ticker/timeframe. You can also see the distance from current price of the ticker to the zone and how many times price has retested that zone.
Supply Zone
In trading, a supply zone is a specific area on a price chart where selling interest surpasses buying interest, leading to a potential decline in asset prices. This zone typically forms after a price rally, indicating that sellers find the asset overvalued and are prepared to sell, creating downward pressure. Identifying supply zones can help traders anticipate potential price reversals or pullbacks.
Trading Possibilities with Supply Zones
Entering Short Positions -> When the price approaches a recognized supply zone, traders may consider initiating short positions, anticipating that increased selling pressure will drive prices down.
Setting Profit Targets -> For traders holding long positions, supply zones can serve as strategic points to set profit targets, as these areas may signal potential resistance and a subsequent price drop.
Demand Zone
In trading, a demand zone is a specific area on a price chart where buying interest is strong enough to halt a downtrend and potentially reverse it upward. This zone indicates a price level where demand exceeds supply, leading to a rise in price. Identifying these zones can provide traders with strategic entry points for potential long positions.
Trading Possibilities with Demand Zones
Entering Long Positions -> When the price approaches a recognized demand zone, traders may consider initiating long positions, anticipating that increased buying pressure will drive prices up.
Setting Profit Targets -> For traders holding short positions, demand zones can serve as strategic points to set profit targets, as these areas may signal potential resistance and a subsequent price increase.
Momentum Detection Method
The Momentum Detection Method identifies supply and demand zones by analyzing the strength and direction of price movements over a specified period. It looks for a sequence of strong bullish or bearish candles to determine potential zones. The method is sensitive to the ‘Sensitivity’ setting, which adjusts the threshold for what constitutes a "strong" candle.
Using the momentum method is ideal for traders looking to capitalize on immediate price reactions and momentum shifts.
Regression Detection Method
The Regression Method uses statistical regression to identify supply and demand zones by analyzing price consolidation patterns. It fits a regression line to price data and identifies zones where price deviates significantly from the trend. This method is more mathematical and less reliant on individual candle patterns. It focuses on the overall price structure and identifies zones based on statistical deviations from the trend.
This method is particularly useful for traders who focus on longer-term price trends and prefer a more statistical approach to pinpoint zones.
Using the momentum method is ideal for traders looking to capitalize on immediate price reactions and momentum shifts.
Status ->
Far -> This status indicates that the current price is significantly distant from any identified supply or demand zones. In this scenario, traders might exercise patience, waiting for the price to approach these zones before considering entry or exit points.
Approaching ⬆️ -> The price is rising towards a supply zone, suggesting potential selling opportunities as the price nears an area where selling pressure previously dominated.
Approaching ⬇️ -> The price is falling towards a demand zone, indicating potential buying opportunities as the price approaches an area known for strong buying interest.
Inside -> The current price is within the boundaries of a supply or demand zone. This status often signals a critical decision point:
Inside a Supply Zone: The area where selling pressure may increase, potentially leading to a price decline. Traders might look for confirmation before initiating short positions.
Inside a Demand Zone: The area where buying interest could surge, possibly resulting in a price increase. Traders might seek validation before entering long positions.
Being "inside" a zone suggests heightened market activity and potential volatility, warranting close monitoring for trading signals.
Retests -> A retest occurs when the price revisits a supply or demand zone but fails to break through it. Specifically, during a retest, the wick of a candlestick enters the zone, but the candle closes below the supply zone or above the demand zone. This price action suggests that the zone remains a strong area of resistance or support, as the market couldn't sustain movement beyond it. Traders often view such retests as confirmations to enter positions in the direction opposite to the zone's boundary. For instance, if the price retests a supply zone and fails to close above it, it may signal a selling opportunity. Conversely, a failed retest of a demand zone could indicate a buying opportunity. Monitoring the number of retests can provide insights into the strength of these zones; multiple retests without a breakout may reinforce the zone's significance. Here you can see how many times the price retested the supply or demand zone.
⚠ Timeframe Restriction : The selected timeframes for analysis cannot be lower than the chart’s current timeframe to ensure proper data alignment.
⏰ ALERTS
This screener supports alerts, so you never miss a key market move. You can choose to receive alerts when a new demand or supply zone is created, helping you spot potential trading opportunities. Additionally, you can enable alerts for retests, which notify you when the price returns to test a previously identified zone. The alerts will work for each enabled ticker in the settings.
⚙️ SETTINGS
1. General Configuration
Detection Method : There are two detection methods you can choose from for identifying Supply & Demand Zones. Both methods aim to identify key areas where price is likely to react, but they do so using different approaches. Traders can choose the method that aligns with their trading style and time horizon.
Sensitivity : The Sensitivity setting allows traders to adjust how aggressively the script identifies supply and demand zones when using the Momentum Detection Method. This setting directly impacts the threshold for detecting zones when using the momentum detection method.
High Sensitivity -> Detects smaller price movements, resulting in more zones being identified. This is ideal for traders who want to capture even minor supply and demand imbalances and prefer a higher frequency of potential trading opportunities.
Medium Sensitivity -> Balances between detecting significant price movements and avoiding excessive noise. This setting is suitable for most traders who want a moderate number of zones without being overwhelmed.
Low Sensitivity -> Focuses on larger, more significant price movements, resulting in fewer zones being identified. This is ideal for traders who prioritize quality over quantity and prefer to focus on the most impactful supply and demand areas.
Lowest Sensitivity -> Detects only the strongest and most pronounced price movements, identifying the most significant zones. This setting is best for traders who want to focus on high-probability, high-impact zones and avoid minor fluctuations.
Zone Invalidation : The Zone Invalidation setting determines how supply and demand zones are invalidated.
Wick -> A zone is invalidated if a candle’s wick goes below a demand zone or above a supply zone.
Close -> A zone is invalidated if a candle closes below a demand zone or above a supply zone.
Zone Visibility Range : The Zone Visibility Range setting controls how far from the current price supply and demand zones are displayed on the chart. It helps traders focus on relevant zones while avoiding clutter from distant or less impactful areas.
Minimum Zone Width : The Minimum Zone Width setting defines the smallest size a supply or demand zone must have to be displayed on the chart. It uses the Average True Range (ATR) as a reference to ensure zones are proportionate to current market volatility.
Minimum Zone Length : The Minimum Zone Length setting determines the minimum number of bars a supply or demand zone must span to be displayed on the chart. This setting helps filter out short-lived or insignificant zones, ensuring only meaningful areas of supply or demand are highlighted.
2. Tickers
You can set, then enable or disable up to 8 tickers in this section to get informed about their latest supply or demand zone.

📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
The first setting you will want to set it the pyramiding setting. This setting controls the number of simultaneous trades in the same direction allowed in the strategy. For example, if you set it to 1, only one trade can be active in any time, and the second trade will not be entered unless the first one is exited. If it is set to 2, the script will handle both of them at the same time. Note that you should enter the same value to this pyramiding setting, and the pyramiding setting in the "Properties" tab of the script for this to work.
You can enable and set a backtesting window that will limit the entries to between the start date & end date.
Then, you can enter your desired settings for Supply & Demand Zones. You can also enable and set up to 3 timeframes, which you can use later on when customizing your strategies enter / exit conditions.
Entry Conditions
From the "Long Conditions" or the "Short Conditions" groups, you can set your position entry conditions. For settings like "initial capital" or "order size", you can open the "Properties" tab, where these are handled.
The S&D Automation can use the following conditions for entry conditions :
1. Demand Zone
Detection: Triggered when a Demand Zone forms or is detected
Retest: Triggered when price retests a Demand Zone. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
2nd Retest: Triggered when price retests a Demand Zone for the second time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
3rd Retest: Triggered when price retests a Demand Zone for the third time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
Retracement: Triggered when price touches a Demand Zone
Break: Triggered when a Demand Zone is invalidated by candle close or wick, depending on the user's input.
2. Supply Zone
Detection: Triggered when a Supply Zone forms or is detected
Retest: Triggered when price retests a Supply Zone. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Supply Zone and closes outside of it.
2nd Retest: Triggered when price retests a Supply Zone for the second time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Supply Zone and closes outside of it.
3rd Retest: Triggered when price retests a Supply Zone for the third time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters a Supply Zone and closes outside of it.
Retracement: Triggered when price touches a Supply Zone
Break: Triggered when a Supply Zone is invalidated by candle close or wick, depending on the user's input.
3. Any Zone
Detection: Triggered when any Supply or Demand Zone forms or is detected
Retest: Triggered when price retests any Supply or Demand Zone. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters any Supply or Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
2nd Retest: Triggered when price retests any Supply or Demand Zone for the second time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters any Supply or Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
3rd Retest: Triggered when price retests any Supply or Demand Zone for the third time. A retest is confirmed when a candle enters any Supply or Demand Zone and closes outside of it.
Retracement: Triggered when price touches any Supply or Demand Zone
Break: Triggered when any Supply or Demand Zone is invalidated by candle close or wick, depending on the user's input.
🕒 TIMEFRAME CONDITIONS
The S&D Automation supports Multi-Timeframe (MTF) features, just like the Supply & Demand indicator. When setting an entry condition, you can also choose the timeframe.
To set up MTF conditions, navigate to the 'Timeframes' section in the settings, select your desired timeframes, and enable them. You can choose up to three timeframes.
Once you've selected your timeframes, you can use them in your strategy. When setting long and short entry/exit conditions, you can choose from Timeframe 1, Timeframe 2, or Timeframe 3.
External Conditions
Users can use external indicators on the chart to set entry conditions.
The second dropdown in the external condition settings allows you to choose a conditional operator to compare external outputs. Available options include:
Less Than or Equal To: <=
Less Than: <
Equal To: =
Greater Than: >
Greater Than or Equal To: >=
The position entry conditions work like this ;
Each side has 5 S&D Zone conditions and 1 Source condition. Each condition can be enabled or disabled using the checkbox on the left side of them.
The next selection is the alert type, which you can select between "Detection", "Retest", "Retracement" or "Break".
You can select which timeframe this condition should work on from Timeframe 1, 2, or 3. If you select "Any Timeframe", the condition will work for all timeframes.
Lastly select the step of this condition from 1 to 6.
The Source Condition
The last condition on each side is a source condition that is different from the others. Using this condition, you can create your own logic using other indicators' outputs on your chart. For example, suppose that you have an EMA indicator in your chart. You can have the source condition to something like "EMA > high".
The Step System
Each condition has a step number, and conditions are in topological order based on them.
The conditions are executed step by step. This means the condition with step 2 cannot be executed before the condition with step 1 is executed.
Conditions with the same step numbers have "OR" logic. This means that if you have 2 conditions with step 3, the condition with step 4 can trigger after only one of the step 3 conditions is executed.
➕ OTHER ENTRY FEATURES
The S&D Automation allows traders to choose when to execute trades and when not to execute trades.
1. Only Take Trades
This setting lets users specify the time period when their strategy can open or execute trades.
2. Don't Take Trades
This setting lets users specify time periods when their strategy can't open or execute trades.
↩️ EXIT CONDITIONS
1. Exit on Opposite Signal
When enabled, a long position will close when short entry conditions are met, and a short position will close when long entry conditions are met.
2. Exit on Session End
When enabled, positions will be closed at the end of the trading session.
📈 TAKE PROFIT CONDITIONS
There are several methods available for setting take profit exits and conditions.
1. Entry Condition TP
Users can use entry conditions as triggers for take-profit exits. This setting can be found under the long and short exit conditions.
2. Fixed TP
Users can set a fixed TP for exits. This setting can be found under the long and short exit conditions. Users can choose between the following:
Price: This method triggers a TP exit when price reaches a specified level. For example, if you set the Price TP to 10 and buy NASDAQ:TSLA at $190, the trade will automatically exit when the price reaches $200 ($190 + $10).
Ticks: This method triggers a TP exit when price moves a specified number of ticks.
Percentage (%): This method triggers a TP exit when price moves a specified percentage.
ATR: This method triggers a TP exit based on a specified multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
📉 STOP LOSS CONDITIONS
There are several methods available for setting stop-loss exits and conditions.
1. Entry Condition SL
Users can use entry conditions as triggers for stop-loss exits. This setting can be found under the long and short exit conditions.
2. Fixed SL
Users can set a fixed SL for exits. This setting can be found under the long and short exit conditions. Users can choose between the following:
Price: This method triggers a SL exit when price reaches a specified level. For example, if you set the Price SL to 10 and buy NASDAQ:TSLA at $200, the trade will automatically exit when the price reaches $190 ($200 - $10).
Ticks: This method triggers a SL exit when price moves a specified number of ticks.
Percentage (%): This method triggers a SL exit when price moves a specified percentage.
ATR: This method triggers a SL exit based on a specified multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
3. Trailing Stop
An explanation & example for the trailing stop feature is present on the write-up within the next section.
Exit conditions have the same logic of constructing conditions like the entry ones. You can construct a Take-Profit Condition & a Stop-Loss Condition. Note that the Take-Profit condition will only work if the position is in profit, regardless of if it's triggered or not. The same applies for the Stop-Loss condition, meaning that it will only work if the position is in loss.
You can also set a Fixed TP & Fixed SL based on the price movement after the position is entered. You have options like "Price", "Ticks", "%", or "Average True Range". For example, you can set a Fixed TP like "5%", and the position will be entered once it moves 5% up in a long position.
Trailing Stop
For the Fixed SL, you also have a "Trailing" stop option, for which you can set its activation level as well. The Trailing stop activation level and its value are expressed in ticks. Check this scenario for an example :
We have a ticker with a tick value of $1. Our Trailing Stop is set to 10 ticks, and the activation level is set to 30 ticks.
We buy 1 contract when the price is $100.
When the price becomes $110, we are in $10 (10 ticks) profit and the trailing stop is now activated.
The current price our stop's on is $110 - $30 (30 ticks), which is the level of $80.
The trailing stop will only move if the price moves up the highest high the price has been after we entered the position.
Let's suppose that price moves up $40 right after our trailing stop is activated. The price will now be $150, and our trailing stop will sit on $150 - $30 (30 ticks) = $120.
If the price is down the $120 level, our stop loss will be triggered.
There is also a "Hard SL" option designed for a backup stop-loss when trailing stops are enabled. You can enable & set this option and if the price goes down before our trailing stop even activates, the position will be exited.
You can also move stop-loss to the break-even (entry price of the position) after a certain profit is achieved using the last setting of the exit conditions. Note that for this to work, you must have a Fixed SL set-up.
➕ OTHER EXIT FEATURES
1. Move Stop Loss to Breakeven
This setting allows the strategy to automatically move the SL to Breakeven (BE) when the position is in profit by a certain amount. Users can choose between the following:
Price: This method moves the SL to BE when price reaches a specified level.
Ticks: This method moves the SL to BE when price moves a specified number of ticks.
Percentage (%): This method moves the SL to BE when price moves a specified percentage.
ATR: This method moves the SL to BE when price moves a specified multiple of the Average True Range (ATR).
Example Entry Scenario
To give an example , check this scenario; out conditions are :
LONG CONDITIONS
Demand Zone Detection, Step 1
Supply Zone Retest, Step 2
Demand Zone Break, Step 2
open > close, Step 3
First, the strategy needs to detect a Demand Zone Detection in order to start working.
After it's detected, now it's looking for either a Supply Zone Retest, or a Demand Zone Break to proceed to the next step, the reason for this is that they both have the same step number.
After one of them is detected, the strategy will consistently check candlesticks for the condition open > close. If a bullish candlestick occurs, a long position will be entered.

Both methods aim to identify key areas where price is likely to react, but they do so using different approaches. Traders can choose the method that aligns with their trading style and time horizon.
Sensitivity: The Sensitivity setting allows traders to adjust how aggressively the script identifies supply and demand zones when using the Momentum Detection Method. This setting directly impacts the threshold for detecting zones when using the momentum detection method.
Zone Invalidation: The Zone Invalidation setting determines how supply and demand zones are invalidated.
Wick -> A zone is invalidated if a candle’s wick goes below a demand zone or above a supply zone.
Close -> A zone is invalidated if a candle closes below a demand zone or above a supply zone.
Zone Visibility Range: The Zone Visibility Range setting controls how far from the current price supply and demand zones are displayed on the chart. It helps traders focus on relevant zones while avoiding clutter from distant or less impactful areas.
Minimum Zone Width: The Minimum Zone Width setting defines the smallest size a supply or demand zone must have to be displayed on the chart. It uses the Average True Range (ATR) as a reference to ensure zones are proportionate to current market volatility.
Minimum Zone Length: The Minimum Zone Length setting determines the minimum number of bars a supply or demand zone must span to be displayed on the chart. This setting helps filter out short-lived or insignificant zones, ensuring only meaningful areas of supply or demand are highlighted.

Adaptive Supply and Demand [EdgeTerminal]Adaptive Supply and Demand is a dynamic supply and demand indicator with a few unique twists. It considers volume pressure, volatility-based adjustments and multi-time frame momentum for confidence scoring (multi-step confirmation) to generate dynamic lines that adjust based on the market and also to generate dynamic support/resistance levels for the supply and demand lines.
The dynamic support and resistance lines shown gives you a better situational awareness of the current state of the market and add more context to why the market is moving into a certain direction.
> Trading Scenarios
When the confidence score is over 80%, strong volume pressure in trend direction (up or down), volatility is low and momentum is aligned across timeframes, there is an indication of a strong upward or downward trend.
When the supply and demand line crossover, the confidence score is over 75% and the volume pressure is shifting, this can be an indicator of trend reversal. Use tight initial stops, scale into position as trend develops, monitor the volume pressure for continuation and wait for confidence confirmation.
When the confiance score is below 60%, the volume pressure is choppy, volatility is high, you want to avoid trading or reduce position size, wait for confidence improvements, use support and resistance for entries/exits and use tighter stops due to market conditions. This is an indication of a ranging market.
Another scenario is when there is a sudden volume pressure increase, and a raising confidence score, the volatility is expanding and the bar momentum is aligning the volatility direction. This can indicate a breakout scenario.
> How it Works
1. Volume Pressure Analysis
Volume Pressure Analysis is a key component that measures the true buying and selling force in the market. Here's a detailed breakdown. The idea is to standardize volume to prevent large spikes from skewing results.
The indicator employs an adaptive volume normalization technique to detect genuine buying and selling pressure.
It takes current volume and divides it by average volume.
If normVol > 1: Current volume is above average
If normVol < 1: Current volume is below average
An example if this would be If current volume is 1500 and average is 1000, normVol = 1.5 (50% above average)
Another component of the volume pressure analysis is the Price Change Calculation sub-module. The purpose of this is to measure price movement relative to recent average.
It works by subtracting the average price from the current price. If the value is positive, price is average and if negative, price is below average.
Finally, the volume pressure is calculated to combine volume and price for true pressure reading.
2. Savitzky-Golay Filtering
SG filtering implements advanced signal smoothing while preserving important trend features. It uses weighted moving average approximation, preserves higher moments of data and reduces noise while maintaining signal integrity.
This results in smoother signal lines, reduced false crossovers and better trend identification. Traditional moving averages tend to lag and smooth out important features. Additionally, simple moving averages can miss critical turning points and regular smoothing can delay signal generation.
SG filtering preserves higher moments such as peaks, valleys and trends, reduces noise while maintaining signal sharpness.
It works by creating a symmetric weighting scheme. This way center points get the highest weights while edge points get the lowest weight.
3. Parkinson's Volatility
Parkinson's Volatility is an advanced volatility measurement formula using high-low range data. It uses high-low range for volatility calculation, incorporates logarithmic returns and annualized the volatility measure.
This results in more accurate volatility measurement, better risk assessment and dynamic signal sensitivity.
4. Multi-timeframe Momentum
This combines signals from each module for each timeframe to calculate momentum across three timeframes. It also applies weighted importance to each timeframe and generates a composite momentum signal.
This results in a more comprehensive trend analysis, reduced timeframe bias and better trend confirmation.
> Indicator Settings
Short-term Period:
Lower values makes it more sensitive, meaning it will generate more signals. Higher values makes it less sensitive, resulting in fewer signals. We recommend a 5 to 15 range for day trading, and 10 to 20 for swing trading
Medium-term Period:
Lower values result in faster trend confirmation and higher values show slower and more reliable confirmation. We recommend a range of 15-25 for day trading and 20-30 for swing trading.
Long-term Period:
Lower values makes it more responsive to trend changes and higher values are better for major trend identification. We recommend a range of 40-60 for day trading and 50-100 for swing trading.
Volume Analysis Window:
Lower values result in more sensitivity to volume changes and higher values result in smoother volume analysis. The optimal range is 15-25 for most trading styles.
Confidence Threshold:
Lower values generate more signals but quality decreases. Higher values generate fewer signals but accuracy increases.The optimal range is 0.65-0.8 for most trading conditions.
Supply and Demand Dashboard [tambangEA]The Supply and Demand Dashboard is an advanced Pine Script indicator that revolutionizes Supply and Demand analysis. Designed for traders, it enables multi-pair and multi-timeframe detection of supply and demand structures, offering a comprehensive and efficient trading experience.
________________________________________
Some Candles represent Accumulation/Distribution of Orders while others do not
-Boring Candles (Candle with Body Range <=50% of Candle Range):
They imply that transactions are happening in a range thus Demand and Supply is in balance and orders are potentially being accumulated/distributed by the Big Boys
-Exciting Candles (Candle with Body Range > 50% of Candle Range) :
They imply imbalance between Demand and Supply thus price starts moving either up or down.
Zones is made up of 3 (three) components : Leg In, Base and Leg Out
-Leg In (Exciting Candles to the Left of Basing)
-Base will always be Boring Candles.
-Leg Out (Exciting Candles to the Right of Basing) will always be Exciting Candles.
There are 4 (four) types of Zones , namely:
1.Rally-Base-Rally (RBR) : This structure represents a bullish continuation zone. It occurs when the price rallies (increases), forms a base (consolidates), and then rallies again. The base represents a period where buying interest builds up before the continuation of the upward movement. This zone can act as support, where buyers may step back in if the price revisits the area.
2.Drop-Base-Rally (DBR) : This structure marks a bullish reversal zone. It forms when the price drops, creates a base, and then rallies. The base indicates a potential exhaustion of selling pressure and a build-up of buying interest. When price revisits this zone, it may act as support, signaling a buying opportunity.
3.Rally-Base-Drop (RBD) : This structure signifies a bearish reversal zone. Here, the price rallies, consolidates into a base, and then drops. The base indicates a temporary balance before sellers overpower buyers. If price returns to this zone, it may act as resistance, with selling interest potentially re-emerging.
4.Drop-Base-Drop (DBD) : This structure is a bearish continuation zone. It occurs when the price drops, forms a base, and then continues dropping. This base reflects a pause before further downward movement. The zone may act as resistance, with sellers possibly stepping back in if the price revisits the area.
________________________________________
a R (Rally) or a D (Drop) is always 1 (one) bar, but the B (Base) can be 1 (one) to maximum 6 (six) bars
Technical Advantages
The advantages of this script from open source are "Dashboard" and "Shadow"

________________________________________
Usage in Real Trading
There are 2 (two) ways to use the Supply and Demand Dashboard in Real Trading :
1. Prices will potentially touch the Demand Zone first and then continue their Bullish trend.
2. If multiple timeframes show the same zone, then a trend is likely to occur (image above)
example:
MultiTime Frame shows DBD then it is possible that the Trend will go down
________________________________________
Look at the image below :
• Top Left: M15 (15-Min Chart) – Dashboard Overview.
• Bottom Left: M30 (30-Min Chart) – DBD formed.
• Top Right: H4 (4-Hour Chart) – DBD confirmed.
• Bottom Right: D1 (Daily Chart) – "Shadow" shows RBR from the previous candle.
________________________________________
Use Cases
Swing Trading: Spot long-term supply and demand zones across higher timeframes for strategic trade entries.
Day Trading: Use the shadow dashboard to focus on recently breached zones for potential short-term trades.
________________________________________
This indicator with its multi-pair and multi-timeframe capabilities, the Supply and Demand Dashboard is a tool that makes it easier for us to see the zone at a glance.
Premarket and Opening Range (First 30 minutes) LevelsThis indicator is for people who like to utilize the pre-market highs and pre-market Low's as well as the first 30 minutes high and low, or some people like to call the opening range. I hope you find value in this. Note, the levels will only appear after tracking. Premarket levels will happen after pre-market closes. Opening Range levels will show right after the first 30 minutes.
Daily ATR Levels - Vishal SubandhThe following script visualizes the ATR High and ATR Low levels based on the previous day’s closing price. The Average True Range (ATR) indicates how much a stock is likely to move—upward or downward—on a given day, providing insight into its intraday volatility. Additionally, the script calculates and displays the daily ATR as a percentage, with specific levels marked at 60% and 80%.
These percentage levels are plotted for both the high and low ranges, offering a framework to analyze potential price movements. In the context of a strong trend, prices often extend to the 80% or even 100% ATR level before showing signs of reversal. Such behavior is observed during pronounced uptrends or downtrends. Conversely, during weaker trends, price reversals may occur at the 60% ATR levels.
It is recommended to use this analysis in conjunction with other tools, such as support and resistance levels or demand and supply zones, for a more comprehensive approach to trading.
Supply and Demand Plus [tambangEA]The Supply and Demand Plus is an advanced version of the highly-regarded Supply and Demand indicator
Designed to offer additional functionality for professional traders. Building on the core features of the original script, the "Plus" version incorporates enhanced zone selection capabilities and multi-timeframe Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs). This makes it a versatile tool for those who seek to refine their trading strategies using supply and demand principles while integrating trend-following techniques.
🔹 New Capabilities in Supply and Demand Plus
1. Customizable Zone Selection:
Users can now choose which specific zones to display on the chart:
Continuation Trader
-Rally-Base-Rally (RBR): Bullish continuation zones.
-Drop-Base-Drop (DBD): Bearish continuation zones.
Contrarian Trader
-Drop-Base-Rally (DBR): Bullish reversal zones.
-Rally-Base-Drop (RBD): Bearish reversal zones.
This feature allows traders to filter the zones relevant to their strategy, reducing chart clutter and enhancing focus.
2. Multi-Timeframe EMAs:
🔹 The Meeting Zone: "Base"
-The meeting zone is where supply meets demand, often referred to as the equilibrium price range. In this range:
-Sellers are willing to sell at prices buyers are willing to pay.
-Trading volume is usually higher as transactions occur more frequently.
-On the candle chart, this area may appear as sideways movement (consolidation) or regions with balanced candle sizes and wicks, signaling relative agreement between buyers and sellers.
🔹 Key Observations in Candle Charts
-Breakouts: When prices break out of a meeting zone, they indicate that one side (buyers or sellers) has gained significant control. This can lead to new supply or demand zones.
-Retests: Often, prices return to test these zones (called pullbacks) before continuing in the dominant direction. Retests confirm the strength of a supply or demand zone.
-Volume Spikes: High trading volumes near these zones signify active participation and can validate the importance of the zone.
The indicator includes five Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) that can be plotted across different timeframes simultaneously. This enables traders to:
Track trend strength and direction across multiple timeframes.
Identify dynamic support and resistance levels.
Combine EMA signals with supply and demand zones for confluence-based trading decisions.
EMA Settings:
Fully customizable periods (e.g., EMA 20, 50, 100, etc.).
Adjustable colors and thickness for each EMA.
Multi-timeframe capability to analyze higher or lower timeframes without changing the chart.
🔹 How It Works :
The script works through a series of processes:
1.Zone Identification:
-Uses historical price patterns and pivot levels to map out supply and demand zones.
-Zones dynamically adjust to reflect market conditions, staying relevant to current price action.
-The color of the Zone can be set individually
2.Volume and Market Context:
-Integrates volume analysis to filter out weaker zones.
-Highlights zones with confluence between high volume and price rejections, signaling areas of strong institutional interest.
3.Trend Integration:
-Employs proprietary logic to assess market trends, ensuring that traders only act on zones aligned with broader momentum.
-This feature minimizes counter-trend trades, which are inherently riskier.
4.User Customization:
-Fully customizable zone sensitivity, timeframe settings, and visual preferences allow traders to adapt the tool to their strategy.
Four EMAs in sequence from Chart EMAs to Daily EMA are indicators of a strong trend

🔹 Utility for Traders
The indicator provides a clear roadmap for traders by:
-Identifying high-probability trade zones.
-Confirming entries with volume and trend data.
-Offering actionable insights in both trending and ranging markets.
🔹 Why It Stands Out
Unlike generic supply and demand indicators or trend-following tools, Supply and Demand Plus incorporates an original approach by:
-Seamlessly combining zone identification, volume analysis, and trend confirmation into a single cohesive tool.
-Adapting dynamically to changing market conditions.
-Supporting advanced traders with MTFA, while remaining accessible to beginners with its intuitive design.
Example : Continuation Trader + Retests
The idea is when the "Base" zone occurs, then there is a meeting between buyers and sellers with a large enough volume and will leave a trace in the past.
In accordance with one of the principles in Dow Theory, namely History Repeats Itself, the price will return to the "Base" zone, before continuing the trend

🔹 Update and Versioning
This script is an evolution of previous Supply and Demand tools, incorporating valuable user feedback and innovative features. All future updates, including improvements and new functionalities, will be integrated within this script under the Update feature, ensuring continuity and ease of access for users.
🔹 Conclusion
We believe that success lies in the association of the user with the indicator, opposed to many traders who have the perspective that the indicator itself can make them become profitable. The reality is much more complicated than that.
The aim is to provide an indicator comprehensive, customizable, and intuitive enough that any trader can be led to understand this truth and develop an actionable perspective of technical indicators as support tools for decision making.

Price Action Analyst [OmegaTools]Price Action Analyst (PAA) is an advanced trading tool designed to assist traders in identifying key price action structures such as order blocks, market structure shifts, liquidity grabs, and imbalances. With its fully customizable settings, the script offers both novice and experienced traders insights into potential market movements by visually highlighting premium/discount zones, breakout signals, and significant price levels.
This script utilizes complex logic to determine significant price action patterns and provides dynamic tools to spot strong market trends, liquidity pools, and imbalances across different timeframes. It also integrates an internal backtesting function to evaluate win rates based on price interactions with supply and demand zones.
The script combines multiple analysis techniques, including market structure shifts, order block detection, fair value gaps (FVG), and ICT bias detection, to provide a comprehensive and holistic market view.
Key Features:
Order Block Detection: Automatically detects order blocks based on price action and strength analysis, highlighting potential support/resistance zones.
Market Structure Analysis: Tracks internal and external market structure changes with gradient color-coded visuals.
Liquidity Grabs & Breakouts: Detects potential liquidity grab and breakout areas with volume confirmation.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): Identifies bullish and bearish FVGs based on historical price action and threshold calculations.
ICT Bias: Integrates ICT bias analysis, dynamically adjusting based on higher-timeframe analysis.
Supply and Demand Zones: Highlights supply and demand zones using customizable colors and thresholds, adjusting dynamically based on market conditions.
Trend Lines: Automatically draws trend lines based on significant price pivots, extending them dynamically over time.
Backtesting: Internal backtesting engine to calculate the win rate of signals generated within supply and demand zones.
Percentile-Based Pricing: Plots key percentile price levels to visualize premium, fair, and discount pricing zones.
High Customizability: Offers extensive user input options for adjusting zone detection, color schemes, and structure analysis.
User Guide:
Order Blocks: Order blocks are significant support or resistance zones where strong buyers or sellers previously entered the market. These zones are detected based on pivot points and engulfing price action. The strength of each block is determined by momentum, volume, and liquidity confirmations.
Demand Zones: Displayed in shades of blue based on their strength. The darker the color, the stronger the zone.
Supply Zones: Displayed in shades of red based on their strength. These zones highlight potential resistance areas.
The zones will dynamically extend as long as they remain valid. Users can set a maximum number of order blocks to be displayed.
Market Structure: Market structure is classified into internal and external shifts. A bullish or bearish market structure break (MSB) occurs when the price moves past a previous high or low. This script tracks these breaks and plots them using a gradient color scheme:
Internal Structure: Short-term market structure, highlighting smaller movements.
External Structure: Long-term market shifts, typically more significant.
Users can choose how they want the structure to be visualized through the "Market Structure" setting, choosing from different visual methods.
Liquidity Grabs: The script identifies liquidity grabs (false breakouts designed to trap traders) by monitoring price action around highs and lows of previous bars. These are represented by diamond shapes:
Liquidity Buy: Displayed below bars when a liquidity grab occurs near a low.
Liquidity Sell: Displayed above bars when a liquidity grab occurs near a high.
Breakouts: Breakouts are detected based on strong price momentum beyond key levels:
Breakout Buy: Triggered when the price closes above the highest point of the past 20 bars with confirmation from volume and range expansion.
Breakout Sell: Triggered when the price closes below the lowest point of the past 20 bars, again with volume and range confirmation.
Fair Value Gaps (FVG): Fair value gaps (FVGs) are periods where the price moves too quickly, leaving an unbalanced market condition. The script identifies these gaps:
Bullish FVG: When there is a gap between the low of two previous bars and the high of a recent bar.
Bearish FVG: When a gap occurs between the high of two previous bars and the low of the recent bar.
FVGs are color-coded and can be filtered by their size to focus on more significant gaps.
ICT Bias: The script integrates the ICT methodology by offering an auto-calculated higher-timeframe bias:
Long Bias: Suggests the market is in an uptrend based on higher timeframe analysis.
Short Bias: Indicates a downtrend.
Neutral Bias: Suggests no clear directional bias.
Trend Lines: Automatic trend lines are drawn based on significant pivot highs and lows. These lines will dynamically adjust based on price movement. Users can control the number of trend lines displayed and extend them over time to track developing trends.
Percentile Pricing: The script also plots the 25th percentile (discount zone), 75th percentile (premium zone), and a fair value price. This helps identify whether the current price is overbought (premium) or oversold (discount).
Customization:
Zone Strength Filter: Users can set a minimum strength threshold for order blocks to be displayed.
Color Customization: Users can choose colors for demand and supply zones, market structure, breakouts, and FVGs.
Dynamic Zone Management: The script allows zones to be deleted after a certain number of bars or dynamically adjusts zones based on recent price action.
Max Zone Count: Limits the number of supply and demand zones shown on the chart to maintain clarity.
Backtesting & Win Rate: The script includes a backtesting engine to calculate the percentage of respect on the interaction between price and demand/supply zones. Results are displayed in a table at the bottom of the chart, showing the percentage rating for both long and short zones. Please note that this is not a win rate of a simulated strategy, it simply is a measure to understand if the current assets tends to respect more supply or demand zones.
How to Use:
Load the script onto your chart. The default settings are optimized for identifying key price action zones and structure on intraday charts of liquid assets.
Customize the settings according to your strategy. For example, adjust the "Max Orderblocks" and "Strength Filter" to focus on more significant price action areas.
Monitor the liquidity grabs, breakouts, and FVGs for potential trade opportunities.
Use the bias and market structure analysis to align your trades with the prevailing market trend.
Refer to the backtesting win rates to evaluate the effectiveness of the zones in your trading.

Supply Demand by WowTradingInfoThis indicator identifies supply and demand zones based on price action, which is a crucial concept for technical analysis. Supply zones represent areas where the price has historically shown selling pressure, while demand zones show areas with strong buying interest.
Explanation:
Rally-Base-Rally (RBR):
A rally is defined as a price movement where the percentage increase between the current high and the previous low.
A base is defined as a period of consolidation where price stays within a narrow range, with low volatility.
A RBR pattern is detected when a rally occurs, followed by a base, and then another rally.
Drop-Base-Drop (DBD):
A drop is identified when the price decrease between the current low and the previous high.
A DBD pattern is detected when a drop occurs, followed by a base, and then another drop.
Zone Marking:
RBR Zones are drawn with repaint the candles color as yellow (where buyers are likely to step in).
DBD Zones are drawn with repaint the candles color as pink (where sellers are likely to step in).
Example Use Case:
Rally-Base-Rally: When you see a yellow zone, it suggests that price rallied, consolidated, and is likely to rally again. It can be used as a potential demand zone.
Drop-Base-Drop: pink zones indicate that price dropped, consolidated, and may drop again. It can be used as a potential supply zone.
This script will help you automatically detect and visualize RBR and DBD patterns on your TradingView chart. These zones can provide valuable insights into areas where price may react due to past buying or selling pressure.
Supply and Demand Zones
Script Introduction:
I have spent a long time searching for the perfect supply and demand zone indicator, but most of the ones I found were based on lines instead of proper zones, which didn’t quite meet my needs. After much trial and error, I decided to build my own indicator that generates clear and reliable supply and demand zones based on price swings and volatility. This indicator dynamically adjusts to market conditions, creating zones that are more responsive to price movements. Whether you're day trading or swing trading, this indicator will help you identify key price levels where buying and selling pressures exist.
Overview:
This indicator identifies supply and demand zones based on swing highs and lows, combined with market volatility. These zones represent areas where price is likely to experience reversals due to buying or selling pressures. The zones are displayed as rectangles (boxes) rather than lines, making it easier to visualize the areas of interest on the chart.
How the Indicator Works:
1. Supply Zones (Red Box):
- A supply zone is identified when the price forms a swing high (a local high point) and there is sufficient volatility (using ATR). The zone represents an area where sellers are likely to step in and push the price down.
2. Demand Zones (Green Box):
- A demand zone is identified when the price forms a swing low (a local low point) and volatility is sufficient. The zone represents an area where buyers are likely to step in and push the price up.
3. Extension Direction:
- You can control whether the zones extend to the left, to the right, or both directions. This lets you choose how far back or forward you want the zones to appear on the chart.
4. Volatility Filter (ATR Multiplier):
- The indicator uses the Average True Range (ATR) to filter out minor price movements. The ATR multiplier is hardcoded to 0.25, meaning that the indicator is more responsive to smaller price swings. This setting helps the zones adjust dynamically to changing market conditions.
How to Use the Indicator:
1. Adding to Chart:
- After publishing, you or invited users can apply the script to any chart. The indicator will automatically generate supply (red) and demand (green) zones.
2. Settings:
- Swing Length (Look-back Period): This controls how many bars back the script looks for significant swing highs and lows. Increasing this value will create zones based on larger swings.
- Extend Zone Horizontally (Bars): This controls how far the zones extend horizontally (left or right). You can adjust this to make the zones extend more or less on the chart.
- Extension Direction: Choose whether the zones extend to the left, right, or both directions. This gives flexibility on how you want the zones to display on the chart.
- Supply Zone Color: You can customize the color and opacity of the supply zone (default is red).
- Demand Zone Color: You can customize the color and opacity of the demand zone (default is green).
Best Practices for Trading:
- Combine with Other Indicators: While supply and demand zones are powerful on their own, combining this indicator with other tools like moving averages, volume analysis, or momentum indicators can provide further confirmation of potential price reversals.
- Watch for Price Action in Zones: When price approaches a supply or demand zone, watch for price action signals such as candlestick patterns (e.g., pin bars, engulfing candles) that can give you an idea of whether the zone will hold or break.
- Adjust for Different Timeframes: The indicator works well across different timeframes. Use a higher look-back period for larger timeframes (e.g., 4-hour, daily) and a lower look-back period for shorter timeframes (e.g., 5-minute, 15-minute charts).
Final Notes:
This script is intended to help traders identify key supply and demand zones and make better trading decisions. Since it dynamically adjusts to market volatility, it is well-suited for both day traders and swing traders who want to capture price reversals at significant levels.
Range supply and demandHi all!
This is a very simple indicator. It plots the high timeframe (configurable via the "Timeframe" setting) high/low current timeframe bars (that has the same high/low as the higher timeframe) as supply/demand. The higher timeframe bar that's chosen is the one that's next last. As of now one high and one low zone is plotted.
The defaults are based on useful zones when on daily candles.
You can choose to display the higher timeframe within the zone via the "Show" option.
Hope this is clear enough, let me know otherwise.
Best of luck trading!
Momentum Candles by @PipsandProfitFXThe High Momentum Candles indicator highlights price bars with exceptional price movement and strong volume. It identifies candles with significantly long bodies relative to their shadows, indicating rapid price changes. Additionally, the indicator filters for candles with above-average volume to confirm the strength of the price movement.
Dark red: bearish momentum
Orange: bullish momentum
(You can easily change the momentum candles to whatever color you want in the indicator settings.)
By visually emphasizing these high momentum candles, traders can potentially identify potential trend reversals or continuations, as well as potential entry and exit points.
Key Features:
Identifies candles with large bodies relative to their shadows
Filters candles based on volume to confirm strength
Highlights high momentum candles with a distinct color
Let me know if you'd like to see any updates on this indicator.
Note: This indicator is a visual tool and should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis techniques for making informed trading decisions.
Supply & Demand (MTF) | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Supply and Demand (MTF) Indicator! This new indicator renders Supply and Demand zones based on momentum candles. It can detect Supply and Demand zones across up to 3 diferent timeframes. It's capable of combining zones, retest & break labels and it's customizable with invalidation and style settings.
Features of the new Supply and Demand (MTF) Indicator:
Renders Supply and Demand Zones Across 3 Timeframes
Combination Of Overlapping Zones
Retest & Break Labels
Retest & Break Alerts
Enable / Disable Historic Zones
Visual Customizability
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Supply and Demand is a key concept in trading. It helps traders see the zones that market-makers buy & sell the asset in large amounts. It's detected by finding momentum candles (candles that have large bodies) in a row.
Momentum candles are defined to have a larger body than the average candle in the chart, and at least 4 of them in a row is required to draw a supply or demand zone. The zone is drawn from the high wick to low wick of two candles before the first momentum candle in the row.
Check this example :
These zones are usually where market makers trade the asset in larger amounts. Thus, they act as support & resistance zones by their nature. A retest of these zones can make the price bounce to the opposite direction, while a breakout usually means strong price action momentum is incoming in that direction. Supply zones indicate bearish momentum while demand zones indicate bullish momentum.
Check this example :
Here a Supply Zone (Bearish) forms. Then price comes back up to test the zone, and it fails to break. After the failed attemp, a stong bearish momentum takes the price back to a lower level. Then another test of the zone occurs and successfully breaks the zone this time. This breakout starts a bullish momentum that takes the price to a higher level.
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator provides Supply and Demand zones in your chart with pure simplicity. It supports up to 3 different timeframes as we believe supporting your trades with higher timeframes can improve your trading experience. It also gets rid of complexity by combining overlapping zones into a single zone, even if they are from different timeframes! You can also set-up alerts to get notified when a supply or demand zone is being retested, or is broken. Overall, this indicator is the ultimate kit for supply and demand zones.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configuration

Indecisive CandlesAn Indecisive Candle, often referred to as a Base Candle, is a pivotal element in technical analysis, particularly for identifying institutional supply and demand zones. These candles are characterized by their small bodies and long wicks, reflecting a balance between buyers and sellers, indicating a potential pause or consolidation in the market.
To calculate whether a candle qualifies as an indecisive candle based on the criterion that its body (the absolute difference between its open and close prices) is less than or equal to 50% of the total range of the candle (the difference between its high and low prices).
Key Features:
Small Real Body: Signifies minimal movement from open to close, indicating market indecision.
Long Upper and Lower Wicks: Show that both bulls and bears attempted to control the price, but neither succeeded, leading to a standoff.
Formation Context: Typically found at the end of a strong trend or within a consolidation phase, hinting at a potential reversal or continuation pattern.
Usage in Identifying Institutional Supply and Demand:
Supply Zones: When an Indecisive Candle forms after a rally, it can mark the onset of an institutional supply zone, suggesting that large entities are starting to sell, leading to potential downward pressure.
Demand Zones: Conversely, when this candle appears after a downtrend, it often signals the emergence of a demand zone, where institutions begin to accumulate, anticipating a price increase.
Trading Strategies:
Zone Identification: Use Indecisive Candles to pinpoint key supply and demand zones on your chart, enhancing the accuracy of your support and resistance levels.
Confirmation: Look for confirmation from subsequent price action or volume spikes to validate the presence of institutional activity before making trading decisions.
Risk Management: Place stop-loss orders beyond the wicks of these candles to protect against false breakouts or continued indecision.
Conclusion:
Indecisive Candles are essential tools for traders looking to understand market sentiment and institutional behavior. By mastering their identification and interpretation, you can enhance your ability to spot high-probability trading opportunities and manage risks effectively.
MTF OB Supply Demand ZonesHello everyone,
This exceptional indicator provides you with visual representations of bullish and bearish order blocks or supply and demand zones across multiple timeframes. In simple terms, bullish order blocks are represented by a small red candle followed by a large red candle, while bearish order blocks are depicted as a small green candle followed by a large red candle. Supply and demand zones are drawn by using order blocks.
Features:
Display order blocks from up to three different timeframes.
Customize the maximum number of boxes shown and the colors of the zones.
Choose from three different modes: OB (Order Block), Extended OB, and Supply/Demand.
Mode Descriptions:
OB: Includes the body of the candle.
Extended OB: Encompasses the body and wick of the candle.
Supply/Demand: Covers the body, wick, and half the body of the large candle.
Usage:
Ensure that charts 2 and 3 are set to a higher timeframe. For modes 2 and 3, it’s recommended to reduce the maximum number of boxes shown. The zones or boxes are transparent, allowing for overlap. This feature aids in identifying reversal zones or confirmed zones. The more intense the color, the stronger the confirmation. If a green zone overlaps a red zone (or vice versa), it signifies a reversal zone.
Thank you for checking out this indicator!

Additional Information:
Order blocks refer to specific price areas where large market participants, such as institutional traders, have previously placed significant buy or sell orders. These clusters of orders can impact price movement, liquidity, and market sentiment.
Order blocks are a strategic approach to identifying key levels of support and resistance based on the behavior of institutional traders. These key levels are then utilized as entry or exit points for trades.
An order block is an area where there has been a large concentration of limit orders awaiting execution. These blocks are identified on a chart by observing previous price action and pinpointing areas where the price experienced significant movement or abrupt changes in direction.
Order blocks are used in the following popular trading philosophies:

How to use this indicator
Message me to gain access. I try to reply within 24 hours.
Consider this as more of a visual aid to add to your confluences.
Use a side by side chart layout with different timeframes to see more zones.
(See example of use at the bottom)
Pullback trades are popular with zones.
⭑⭑⭑ Zones ⭑⭑⭑
How are zones created?
Supply zones are created when the price drops quickly, so are found above the price action.
Demand zones are created when the price rallies quickly, so are found below the price action.
The script uses a combination of quick price movements and user defined minimum price % changes. All user defined settings have default settings which vary depending on asset type and timeframe.
What is a strong zone?
The zones boxes have either a dashed border or a solid border. A solid border represents a strong zone which is when
the price has moved very quickly from it, or
the price has bounced off the zone multiple times.
What is a deactivated zone?
When the price has gone through the zone by a certain %, the zone is deactivated and displayed in a more transparant colour.
How are deactivated zones used for switch zones?
When a new zone is created, it is checked to see if it overlaps a recently deactivated zone.
e.g. If a new demand zone overlaps a recently deactivated supply zone, then the zone has switched from supply to demand. This might mean the new zone could be a strong one and the number of hits on the previous zone (also a potential indicator of strength) is displayed in the zone label tooltip.
Zone information
Basic zone information can be found in the zone label.
Users can choose what information is displayed in the label including the number of hits and prices.
More detailed information can be found in the zone label tooltip.
Hovering over the label will display more information including the zone start time and height %.
DBD/RBR/RBD/DBR/FVG
Zones are defined as drop base drop, rally base rally, rally base drop, drop base rally, and fair value gap.
Zone height
Users have the option of choosing
Wick to wick, or
Wick to body
The indicator does its best to meet the user preference but sometimes it is not possible. The information in the label tooltip will show if the preference was matched.
Minimum and maximum height default settings help to prevent zone boxes which might fill the whole chart.
⭑⭑⭑ Lines of Interest ⭑⭑⭑
Lines of interest are displayed as an added bonus.
Long wick
Long wicks might show areas of support or resistance. Very long and long wicks are defined by the % change in the wicks.
Very long wick lines are always displayed, and long wicks are displayed if they are not near a zone.
Possible Support / Resistance
After a big rally or drop, lines are displayed to show where the price might pullback to. These lines can act as possible support or resistance, and
are taken from recently deactivated zones. A solid line respresents a strong deactivated zone.
⭑⭑⭑ Alerts ⭑⭑⭑
Limit the number of alerts to the recommended ones. Consider this as more of a visual aid to add to your confluences.
Alert types
Early alerts happen immediately.
Bar end alerts happen when the bar closes.
Alert display
Alerts can be displayed on the chart with symbols. The most recent symbols have a tooltip which allow alert information to be displayed when hovering over them.
It is recommended to turn the alert display off, as it can clutter up the chart. The alerts will continue to work with the display off.

NITS - NIFTY INTRADAY TRADING SYSTEMNSE:NIFTY
Hello Traders..!
This is another indicator / system to make use for NIFTY & BANK NIFTY Intra day trading.
This is my Gift to the traders for this New Year 2024. Use this to your Edge and make some profits. All explained below.
NIFTY INTRA-DAY TRADING SYSTEM
Explanation of Arrays:
-------------------------------
## FIRST 15 MIN SESSION BOX ##
From 09:15 to 09:30 where the initial orders will get collected and Auction takes place.
DO NOT engage into any trade in this session. Let the Box develop.
## INITIAL HIGH / LOW FORMATION SESSION ##
This session is from 09:15 to 10:30.
We can observe the Initial High or Low being formed for the day, that is VALID TILL 11:30.
## NO-TRADE ZONE / ACC. AREA / DAY’S H OR L CONFIRMATION SESSION ##
From 11:30 to 12:30
90% of time this is the session where the whole Day’s High or Low will get confirmed. Sometimes the market may violate this Session!
DO NOT engage into any fresh trade in this area.
Once the box is developed, you can see the Mid price line will be formed which is valid for the afternoon Trading session till 15:30.
## SIGNAL LINE, MIDDLE PRICE LINE, SESSION HIGH LOW LINES ##
Middle Price Line – the dotted line (Red colour) is Mid Price Line for the Initial session box. This acts as an important price level for the whole day.
Signal Line – the Solid line that will form after 10:30. Consider this price line as very important price line to which the price reacts with a good momentum, either break through or rejection and valid for the whole trading day.
Session High Low price line – high and low prices of the Initial session box which acts as a good Support / Resistance / Target / Stop loss. Even previous session’s price lines can also be used for the current day too.
## TREND BOX ##
Multi-Time frame trend box will show the real-time trend on different time frames. This box will be very helpful in trade decision. Please note that at least THREE HIGHER TIME FRAME TRENDS must be in the same direction to support your trade criteria for the better confirmation.
## VOLUME IMBALANCE ##
These orange coloured boxes are very tiny imbalances between prices that were formed during price movements. Algorithm will try to fill these imbalances on its way of filling orders. These price imbalances can be used for our edge while taking trades.
SOME TIPS:
---------------------------
1) Avoid Break out trades
2) Always trade the pull backs
3) Keep your Stops above / below the KEY LEVELS
4) Always follow the Higher Time frame trend while taking a trade.
If you trade in 1m TF consider 5m trend
If you trade in 5m TF consider 1H or 15m trend
5) Consider the higher TF closure of prices only, to validate the break out.
6) Trade what you see, market can do anything it wants.
7) Do not worry about losses. It happens and that is the business.
8) End your trading week in green no matter how big or small the profit is. Consistency is the key this business.
9) Keep in mind that the Market does two things only, either it will FILL THE GAP or GRAB THE LIQUIDITY. Just plan your trades accordingly. Liquidity levels like Previous Session / Day / Week / highs and lows.
10) The Market is a continuous business. It does not end for the specific day. It will not end its Buy or Sell model unless it completes its cycle, hence TRADE WHAT YOU SEE and not WHAT YOU THINK!
11) Unless the key swing high / low is broken and closed, DO NOT consider that move as a reversal. Consider that as a Liquidity grab. And it will continue in its previous trend.
HOW TO TAKE TRADE USING NITS: (one of the Techniques)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As explained above, Do not engage in trade for the first 15 minutes.
Once the 15m box forms then look for divergence between NIFTY and BANK NIFTY.
Both Indices are supposed to trade in the same direction but at key levels and times, these instruments will make DIVERGENCE with its Highs and Lows.
Ex: one Index will make LOW AND LOWER LOW and at the same time other will make LOW AND HIGHER LOW. This deflection can be used for taking Buy Trades.
Ex:
If the Divergence forms at the Bottom then the market will move upwards.
If the Divergence forms at the Top then the market makes down move.
To confirm this divergence, the price will move away from that deflected Lows or Highs.
-----------------------------------
POINTS TO OBSERVE
------------------------------------
Mostly the first 15 min range that forms will either be very large candles or normal candles with rejection wicks or Shaved bar (open and H/L same)
Whenever you observe a very large wide range bars within the 15min range, consider the Day’s high and Low is already formed. And the market will be hovering inside that range only. Very useful for taking 50 points scalping here and there by using the signal line and middle line or Acc box mid line. In this scenario you have three important info of the day, OPEN HIGH & LOW established already, The market will only look for its close.
Ex:
If the market trades with normal candles, then consider your trades in two parts.
From 09:30 to 11:30 and from 12:30 to 15:30 as 11:30 to 12:30 will confirm the current day’s High / Low hence do not take a fresh position within that time.
1) Initial session trade – If the price does not break and close the 15 min range high/low, consider it is going to reverse and continue its trend till 10:30
Ex:
2) Mid session Trade – mostly the market accumulates positions and collects orders between 11:30 to 12:30 for the afternoon session. Once the session box is developed, the middle price line will form. Wait for the market breakout and close off this session’s high or low in Higher TF. The market will continue in the direction of breakout from this session and continue till 15:30. Hence wait for pull back till its mid price / high or low price lines of this Acc box and take trade in the initial breakout direction keeping stop above or below the session’s high or low.
Ex:

Note:
-----------------
Kindly do not ask for any codes or script details. The one technique what I explained (Divergence method) is more than enough for making a consistent earnings. Please study and back test / forward test for yourself for atleast 2 weeks time. Every traders aspect and mindset is different in seeing the market movements. Please design your own methodology and CONSIDER this as a BUSINESS..!

Supply and Demand Anchored [LuxAlgo]The Supply and Demand Anchored indicator is an anchored version of the popular Supply and Demand Visible Range indicator. Once adding the indicator to the chart, users need to manually select the starting and ending points for the indicator's calculation. The estimated supply/demand zones are then extended.
🔶 USAGE
The proposed indicator makes use of the same method highlighted in previous posts (see related scripts section below) to estimate supply and demand zones.
When adding the indicator to the chart, users will be prompted to select a starting and ending point for the calculation of the supply and demand zones, click on your chart to select those points.
Once calculated, each zone/level will be extended to the right of the chart. These can be used as support/resistance zones. Clicking on one of the graphical elements of the indicator or the indicator title will highlight the starting and ending calculation points, these can be dragged to be set at different locations.
🔶 SETTINGS
Threshold %: Percentage of the total visible range volume used as a threshold to set supply/demand areas. Higher values return wider areas.
Resolution: Determines the number of bins used to find each area. Higher values will return more precise results.
Intra-bar TF: Timeframe used to obtain intra-bar data.

Market Price Order Divergence + Trapped Positions [Pt]█ Introduction
Specifically designed for trading on NYSE, NASDAQ, Dow Jones, and AMEX related instruments like SPY, QQQ, ES, NQ...etc., this innovative tool provides traders with advanced market insights to help them comprehend the market intricacies and make well-informed decisions. Comprising three primary features: Price Order Divergence (POD) Bubbles, Market Order Bubbles, and Trapped Positions/Zones, this tool assists traders in deciphering the nuances of market order flow and trends.
An important point to note is that TradingView doesn't currently provide direct access to market order data, such as buy and sell order flow. Therefore, this tool cleverly leverages TICK index data to estimate the overall market buy and sell strength.
█ Price Order Divergence (POD)
POD serves to detect disparities between the prices of US indices and estimated market orders during regular trading hours (9:30 to 16:00 EST). Bullish divergence indicates that the estimated market order flow is biased towards buy orders, despite bearish price action. In contrast, bearish divergence indicates that the market order flow is biased towards sell orders while the price exhibits bullish action. By default, PODs are visually represented as green bubbles under the candle for bullish divergence and red ones above the candle for bearish divergence. The bubble's size symbolizes the estimated market order strength.
█ Market Order Bubbles (MOB)
During extended or Globex hours, instead of POD, the tool uses Market Order Bubbles (MOB) to estimate market orders using volume data. Sophisticated algorithm is used to distinguish between bullish vs bearish volume. A strong bullish volume represents significant buy orders, whereas a strong bearish volume represents substantial sell orders. By default, MOBs during these hours are shown in blue for bullish and yellow for bearish divergence. Again, the bubble's size symbolizes the estimated market order strength.
█ Trapped Positions/Zones
Trapped positions materialize when PODs or MOBs emerge in trending markets. For example, a bearish divergence during an uptrend suggests significant selling (including shorting), and if the price continues ascending without offering short positions any profit, these positions become 'trapped shorts' and is shown as 'TS' in the zone. The opposite is true for 'trapped longs' or 'TL'.
A price range zone can be delineated from the trapped position candles. If prices revisit these zones, and the prevailing market trend stays bullish, the trapped shorts will probably liquidate near the break-even point to mitigate losses. The same rationale applies to bullish divergence in a downtrend. Therefore, these zone often times represents support / resistance zones.
█ Potential Use Cases
► Trend Confirmation: POD or MOB can confirm the strength of an ongoing trend. For example, during a bullish trend, a plethora of green bubbles or blue MOBs can affirm the trend's solidity.
► Spotting Reversals: Large, isolated POD or MOB bubbles could indicate potential market reversals. For instance, a prominent red bubble or yellow MOB during an uptrend might hint at an impending trend reversal.
► Risk Management: The Trapped Positions/Zones feature could assist in risk management. When prices approach these zones, traders can anticipate potential large market orders impacting price movements.
► Profit Optimization: This tool can aid traders in optimizing profits by identifying when trapped positions are likely to liquidate, thus predicting potential sharp price movements.
Remember, as with any tool, this should be used alongside other market analyses and not as a standalone indicator. Happy trading!

Supply and Demand Based Pattern [RH]This indicator focuses on detecting RBR and DBD patterns, which signify periods of increased momentum and potential continuation or reversal of the prevailing trend.
The RBR pattern consists of a rally (upward movement), followed by a base (consolidation or retracement), and then another rally. It suggests that the upward momentum may persist and provide trading opportunities.
On the other hand, the DBD pattern comprises a drop (downward movement), followed by a base, and then another drop. It indicates that the downward momentum might continue, offering potential shorting opportunities.
Bullish(RBR) example:
Bearish(DBD) example:
1. The bullish (RBR) and bearish (DBD) patterns share the same underlying logic, only differing in their directionality.
2. For both RBR and DBD patterns, the first rise/drop can consist of one or multiple candles. However, in the case of multiple candles, all candles must exhibit a bullish nature for RBR and a bearish nature for DBD.
Example:
3. It is a prerequisite for the first rise/drop to include at least one candle with a defined percentage of health, as determined by the user.
4. The base, following the first rise/drop, may comprise one or multiple candles.
Example:
5. To maintain consistency, the base is not allowed to retrace beyond 80%, although this value can be adjusted by the user.
6. Similar to the first rise/drop, the second rise/drop in both RBR and DBD patterns can consist of one or multiple candles. However, all candles within this phase must demonstrate a bullish nature for RBR and a bearish nature for DBD.
7. Confirmation of the bullish (RBR) pattern occurs when a candle closes above the high of the first rise. Conversely, the bearish (DBD) pattern is confirmed when a candle closes below the low of the first drop.
Example:
Alerts can be set for all bullish and bearish pattern or for the first pattern in the range of similar pattern.
