Volatilty
Bottom Up - Reverso ProReverso Pro by Bottom Up - Excess is the signal. Reversion is the edge.
Reverso is a mean reverting indicator that identifies market excesses and signals reversals for highly probable retracements to an average value.
Reverso's algorithm is extremely precise because it also takes into account the historical volatility of the instrument and constantly recalibrates itself dynamically without repainting.
This tool is suitable for mean-reversion traders who want to study EMA reactions, understand market trends, and refine entry/exit strategies based on price-memory dynamics.
Why Reverso Pro is different (This isn’t just another indicator)
Zero repainting – What you see is what you get. No tricks, no redraws, ever.
Dynamically adapts to the historical volatility of the instrument — works the same on Forex, stocks, indices, or some random crypto.
Constant real-time recalibration — adjusts instantly to volatility regime changes.
Fully adjustable sensitivity — From machine-gun signals for brutal scalping to only the most extreme deviations for monster-probability swing trades.
Native multi-timeframe control — Choose the timeframe used for signal calculation (5 min, 1H, daily, or custom). Reverso bends to your style.
When a Reverso signal fires:
Price has reached a statistically extreme deviation from its historical memory.
The probability of a snapback to the mean is at its peak.
It’s time to go counter-trend with the lowest risk and the highest reward possible.
Customization Options
You can use it on any timeframe and instrument.
You can customize also the timeframe over which the signals are processed to suit very fast scalping trading or to intercept slower and longer movements for swing trading.
The sensitivity of the indicator can also be customized to emit multiple signals or identify only the most extreme levels of deviation from the mean.

Adaptive Trend Mapper-ATM (Arjo)Adaptive Trend Mapper (ATM) is a multi-factor trend, momentum, and compression-analysis tool designed to help traders visually map the strength and direction of market pressure.
Instead of simply combining existing indicators, ATM creates a new composite framework that blends momentum imbalance, directional strength, volatility contraction, and adaptive smoothing into a single, unified model.
Originality and usefulness
Adaptive Trend Mapper (ATM) does not replicate any one indicator.
It generates two custom indices— Bull Pressure Index and Bear Pressure Index —derived from a mathematical combination of RSI, inverse-RSI, and ADX. These indices behave differently from traditional oscillators:
They represent directional pressure on a 0–100 scale , not momentum.
They are designed to converge/diverge, forming a basis for the built-in Squeeze Detection Engine.
They can be optionally step-compressed , making the movement easier to read on fast or small charts.
The script also integrates a custom SuperSmoother trend model (not TradingView’s built-in function), which acts as an adaptive trend curve on the chart.
All calculations are combined intentionally—not as a mashup—to create a framework that allows traders to understand trend strength, compression phases, and micro-trend shifts in one place.
How the Indicator Works
1. Bull & Bear Pressure Indices:
These indices measure directional imbalance:
Bull Index = ADX strength weighted against inverse-RSI
Bear Index = ADX strength weighted against normal RSI
This produces two opposing pressure curves that rise or fall depending on whether buyers or sellers dominate.
You can optionally smooth these using:
SMA / EMA / WMA / RMA via the “Smoothing Settings” panel.
2. Squeeze & Compression Detection:
A squeeze is detected when:
ADX stays below a user-defined threshold
Bull–Bear Index difference shrinks
Average difference is falling (convergence)
This is a volatility-contraction model inspired by squeeze logic but applied to directional pressure, not Bollinger Bands/Keltner Channels .
3. Adaptive Trend Curve (SuperSmoother Engine)
The indicator applies a two-pole SuperSmoother filter to the price, then smooths it again using EMA.
The slope color flips between bullish and bearish and is displayed using:
A thin SuperSmoother curve
A thicker band for visual context
4. EMA-50 Trend Context:
An optional EMA-50 helps identify broad directional bias .
5. Step-Based Scaling
You can quantize the Bull/Bear indices using custom step intervals.
This makes the indicator easier to read on noisy intraday charts.
How to Use the Indicator
1. Trend Analysis
A rising Bull Index shows strengthening upward pressure
A rising Bear Index shows strengthening downward pressure
Wide divergence between the indices signals a strong trend
2. Compression / Squeeze Analysis
Yellow background = volatility compression + pressure convergence
Breakouts from this zone often precede directional expansion
3. Trendline Reading
SuperSmoother line color flip = micro trend shift
EMA-50 slope gives macro-trend direction
Perfect for combining trend and momentum maps on the same chart
4. Visual Interpretation
Cyan/teal → strong bullish pressure
Purple/red/orange → various levels of bearish control
Neutral/teal background → weak ADX
Yellow background → squeeze zone
Open-Source Notes
This script uses:
TradingView built-in RSI, ADX/DMI, and smoothing functions
A SuperSmoother implementation based on known DSP filter coefficients
All remaining logic, signal methods, composite indices, and compression model are original developments by ARJO .
The script is published open-source to comply with TradingView’s reuse policy.

Low Volatility Profiles [BigBeluga]🔵 OVERVIEW
Low Volatility Profiles is a market compression and breakout-anticipation tool that identifies phases of low volatility using ADX and then builds a real-time volume profile inside the detected range.
This helps traders spot accumulation/distribution zones and prepare for explosive moves when volatility expands.
When volatility is low ➜ price coils ➜ volume organizes ➜ breakouts become highly actionable.
This tool visualizes that process with dynamic range boxes + volume bins + PoC extension.
🔵 CONCEPTS
Low-Volatility Detection — Uses ADX threshold & cross logic to define volatility contraction regimes.
Range Construction — Draws a price box that expands with highs/lows during the compression phase.
Micro Volume Profile — Builds a volume histogram inside the range using bins (micro volume nodes).
Delta Calculation — Tracks positive vs negative volume to gauge buyer/seller pressure within range.
Point of Control (PoC) — Highlights the price level with max traded volume inside the range.
PoC Extension — Optionally extends PoC into future bars to show potential reaction zone after breakout.
Breakout Validation — Ends the profile zone when price breaks above or below the modeled range.
Noise Removal — Automatically removes invalid or small ranges to prevent chart clutter.
This tool turns consolidation into actionable structure by exposing where smart money accumulates before trending moves.
🔵 FEATURES
ADX-Driven Range Detection — Identify when market transitions into low-volatility compression.
Configurable ADX Threshold — Set sensitivity for contraction zones.
Cross-Type Option — Detect low volatility via cross under / crossover logic.
Dynamic Range Box — Expands live with price as contraction unfolds.
Micro Volume Profile (Bins) — Distributes volume across bins inside range for micro POC mapping.
Volume Delta Visualization — Shows imbalance inside consolidation (accumulation vs distribution).
Real-Time PoC Highlight — Instantly shows most traded price inside the compression.
PoC Extension Mode — Extend PoC forward to project reaction levels post-breakout.
Clean Auto-Reset Logic — Removes boxes if range invalid or breakout occurs too fast.
Optional Filled Boxes — Heatmap-style profile visualization inside range body.
ADX Line + Threshold Plot — Visual assistance for volatility state monitoring.
🔵 HOW TO USE
Identify Accumulation Zones — When price enters low-volatility ADX condition and profile builds.
Watch the PoC — PoC acts as battle zone; move above/below can signal initiator strength.
Breakout Strategy — Trade break above/below the range after compression.
Mean Reversion Inside Range — Fade edges while price remains inside compression box.
Combine With Trend Tools — Use trend confirmation (MA/EMA/Flow indicators) after breakout.
Use Delta Clues — Positive delta tilt suggests accumulation; negative suggests distribution.
Monitor Range Size — Longer build + high PoC volume = stronger potential breakout energy.
🔵 CONCLUSION
Low Volatility Profiles isolates accumulation phases and maps volume concentration before volatility expansion.
By combining ADX compression, micro volume distribution, and PoC tracing, traders gain an edge in anticipating powerful breakout cycles and institutional positioning.
Trade the quiet moment before the storm — where smart money prepares the move, and the real opportunity emerges.
CDVI – First Crypto Dominance Volatility Index by Armi GoldmanThe Crypto Dominance Volatility Index (CDVI) is the first volatility-based indicator designed specifically to analyze the stability and instability of dominance flows in the crypto market.
Instead of measuring price volatility, CDVI focuses on the volatility of market dominance itself — a structural driver behind capital rotation cycles such as Bitcoin Season, Altseason, accumulation zones, and macro cycle transitions.
CDVI transforms dominance changes into a clear volatility index that highlights compression, expansion, and regime shifts.
How it works
CDVI calculates the absolute or percentage-based realized volatility of your chosen dominance benchmark (BTC.D, TOTAL.D, or any dominance index available on TradingView).
The indicator then:
1. Smooths the volatility curve using adjustable parameters
2. Builds a long-term mean to identify regime structure
3. Computes percentile zones over a rolling lookback window
4. Highlights high-risk and low-risk dominance conditions using color-coded backgrounds
This creates a clean, noise-reduced volatility representation of the dominance market.
Why it looks like this
The CDVI curve is intentionally smooth and cyclical because dominance volatility behaves differently from price volatility:
• Dominance tends to trend slowly, then spike violently during rotation phases
• Periods of prolonged compression often occur before large macro moves
• Volatility bursts cluster during transitions (e.g. BTC → Alts, cycle tops, market-wide repricing)
The percentile zones (90% / 10%) give structural thresholds for extreme conditions.
Background color reveals when dominance volatility enters these extremes, creating visually clear “regime blocks.”
How to interpret CDVI
High CDVI (above the 90th percentile):
• Dominance instability
• Capital rotation phases are active
• Market is repricing sector allocations
• Often appears near Altseason tops or bottoms
• Signals caution for trend traders and opportunity for rotation traders
Low CDVI (below the 10th percentile):
• Compression and calm dominance
• Accumulation and structural balance
• Often precedes major expansions in Bitcoin or Alt markets
• Useful for anticipating cycle transitions before they break out
Long-term mean:
• Helps identify when the market is in a high-vol or low-vol regime
• Crossings around the mean often coincide with early cycle shifts
How to use CDVI in practice
1. Cycle Timing
Use CDVI to detect when the market moves from calm → expansion or expansion → exhaustion.
Low CDVI usually precedes major moves. High CDVI often marks transition turbulence.
2. BTC vs Altcoins Rotation
Combine CDVI with BTC.D / TOTAL2 / TOTAL3 to detect rotation windows.
High CDVI = dominance is unstable → rotations happen.
Low CDVI = dominance is stable → trending environment.
3. Risk Management
High CDVI suggests elevated structural risk (dominance shifting).
Low CDVI supports directional conviction.
4. Confluence with Price
When both price volatility and dominance volatility expand together → macro transition.
When price is volatile but CDVI is flat → noise, not structural change.
Who this indicator is for
• Cycle analysts
• Macro crypto traders
• BTC vs Alts rotation traders
• Portfolio allocators
• Long-term investors looking at structural market phases
CDVI is designed as a clean, structural tool for understanding volatility not of price — but of market power distribution.
QuantMotions - TPR Sentinel LineTPR Sentinel Line is an advanced adaptive Support/Resistance system that combines multi-layered trend analysis with a directional Time-Price Ratio (TPR) engine. The indicator dynamically builds a stabilized support or resistance line that adjusts to market volatility, trend strength, ATR expansion and contraction, and real-time slope changes.
This creates a high-precision, self-adjusting trend barrier that acts as support in uptrends, resistance in downtrends, and a neutral anchor during sideways phases.
Key Features
✔ Adaptive Trend Base
- A composite trend model blending:
- Kijun-style midpoint
- Donchian midline
- SMA & EMA smoothing
This creates a stable baseline that reacts smoothly but reliably to structural trend shifts.
✔ Directional TPR Calculation
The indicator measures slope across short, medium, and long trend windows, normalizes it with ATR, and determines:
- Trend direction
- Trend strength
- Momentum quality
✔ Dynamic Support/Resistance Line
Depending on trend direction:
- In uptrends → the line becomes adaptive support
- In downtrends → the line becomes adaptive resistance
- In neutral phases → the line centers around the smoothed trend base
A built-in lag factor prevents unrealistic jumps and keeps the level stable.
✔ Automatic Support/Resistance Zones
The indicator expands the main line into upper and lower zones based on ATR and trend strength, creating a dynamic volatility envelope around the trend structure.
✔ Signals & Alerts
- Support bounce
- Resistance rejection
- Breakouts above/below the dynamic line
These events help identify high-probability continuation or reversal moments.
✔ Information Panel
A real-time status table displays:
- Trend direction
- Trend strength
- Current S/R level
🎯 Ideal For
- Precision entries on pullbacks
- Detecting trend shifts earlier
- Identifying strong or weak trend phases
- Adaptive take-profit and stop-loss zones
- Filtering false breakouts

OTT Volatility [RunRox]📊 OTT Volatility is an indicator developed by the RunRox team to pinpoint the most optimal time to trade across different markets.
OTT stands for Optimal Trade Time Volatility and is designed primarily for markets without a fixed trading session, such as cryptocurrencies that trade 24/7. At the same time, it works equally well on any other market.
🔶 The concept is straightforward. The indicator takes a specified number of historical periods (Samples) and statistically evaluates which hours of the day or which days show the highest volatility for the selected asset.
As a result, it highlights time windows with elevated volatility where traders can focus on searching for trade setups and building positions.
🔶 As the core volatility metric, the indicator uses ATR (Average True Range) to measure intraday volatility. Then it calculates the average ATR value over the last N Samples, creating a statistically stable estimate of typical volatility for the selected asset.
🔶 Statistically, during these highlighted periods the market shows higher-than-average volatility.
This means that in these time windows price is more likely to be subject to stronger moves and potential manipulation, making them attractive for active trade execution and position management.
⚠️ However, historical behavior does not guarantee future results.
These periods should be treated only as zones where volatility has a higher probability of being above normal, not as a promise of movement.
As shown in the screenshot above, the indicator also projects potential future volatility based on historical data. This helps you better plan your trading hours and align your activity with periods where volatility is statistically expected to be higher or lower.
🔶 Current Volatility – as shown in the screenshot above, you can also monitor the real-time volatility of the market without any statistical averaging.
On top of that, you can overlay the current volatility on top of the statistical volatility levels, which makes it easy to see whether the market is now trading in a high- or low-volatility regime relative to its usual behavior.
4 display modes – you can choose any visualization style that fits your trading workflow:
Absolute – displays the raw volatility values.
Relative – shows volatility relative to its typical levels.
Average Centered – centers volatility around its average value.
Trim Low Value – filters out low-volatility noise and highlights only more significant moves.
This indicator helps you define the most effective trading hours on any market by relying on historical volatility statistics.
Use it to quickly see when your market tends to be more active and to structure your trading sessions around those periods.
✅ We hope this tool becomes a useful part of your trading toolkit and helps you improve the quality of your decisions and timing.
Kalman Trend Sniper# KALMAN TREND SNIPER
## ORIGINALITY STATEMENT
The Kalman Trend Sniper combines adaptive trend detection with precision entry validation to identify high-probability trading opportunities. Unlike static moving averages that use fixed parameters, this indicator adapts to changing market volatility through ATR-based gain adjustment and distinguishes trending from ranging markets using ADX regime detection.
The indicator's unique contribution is its three-phase entry validation system: signals must hold for three bars, undergo a pullback test to the signal level, and receive confirmation through price action before generating an entry. This structured approach helps traders enter established trends at favorable retracement levels rather than chasing momentum.
---
## TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY
### Kalman Filter Implementation
This indicator implements an Alpha-Beta variant of the Kalman filter, a recursive algorithm that estimates trend from noisy price data:
1. Prediction: kf = kf + velocity
2. Error calculation: error = price - kf
3. Correction: kf = kf + gain * error
4. Velocity update: velocity = velocity + (gain * error) / 2
The gain parameter determines filter responsiveness. Higher gain values track price more closely but increase noise sensitivity, while lower values provide smoother output but lag price changes.
### Adaptive Gain Mechanism
The indicator adjusts gain dynamically based on volatility:
Volatility Factor = Current ATR / Long-term ATR
Adaptive Gain = Base Gain * (0.7 + 0.6 * Volatility Factor)
This ATR ratio increases responsiveness during high-volatility periods and reduces sensitivity during consolidations, addressing the fixed-parameter limitation of traditional moving averages. The volatility factor is bounded between configurable minimum and maximum values to prevent extreme adjustments.
### Regime Detection
The indicator uses the Average Directional Index (ADX) to distinguish market conditions:
- Trending markets (ADX above threshold): Full gain applied, signals generated
- Ranging markets (ADX below threshold): Gain reduced 25%, fewer signals
This regime awareness helps reduce whipsaw signals during sideways consolidation periods.
### Signal Line Validation System
When the Kalman line changes direction in trending conditions, the indicator draws a horizontal signal line at the low (for long signals) or high (for short signals) of the signal candle. This line represents a potential support or resistance level.
The validation system then monitors three phases:
Phase 1 - Hold Period: Price must remain above (long) or below (short) the signal line for three consecutive bars. This requirement filters weak signals where price immediately violates the signal level.
Phase 2 - Test: After the hold period, the system waits for price to pull back and touch the signal line, with configurable tolerance for volatile instruments.
Phase 3 - Confirmation: Within eight bars of the test, a confirmation candle must close above (long) or below (short) the test candle's body, demonstrating renewed momentum. If confirmation does not occur within eight bars, the validation attempt expires.
Successful validation generates an R label at the entry point. This three-phase structure helps identify entries where trend direction and support/resistance validation align.
---
## USAGE INSTRUCTIONS
### Signal Interpretation
Triangle Signals:
- Upward triangle (teal): Kalman line turns bullish in trending market (ADX above threshold)
- Downward triangle (red): Kalman line turns bearish in trending market
Signal Lines (horizontal):
- Teal line: Potential long support level at signal candle low
- Red line: Potential short resistance level at signal candle high
- Gray line: First opposite-color candle after signal (initial reversal pressure)
R Labels (optional, disabled by default):
- Green R below price: Validation complete for long entry
- Red R above price: Validation complete for short entry
Stop Levels:
- Red dots: Long stop level (Kalman line minus ATR multiplier)
- Teal dots: Short stop level (Kalman line plus ATR multiplier)
### Dashboard Information
The dashboard displays real-time indicator state:
- Trend: Current Kalman direction (BULL/BEAR)
- Regime: Market classification (Trending when ADX exceeds threshold, Ranging otherwise)
- Gain: Current adaptive gain value
- Vol Factor: Volatility ratio (current ATR / long-term ATR)
- ADX: Trend strength (higher values indicate stronger trends)
- Z-Score: Standard deviation distance from Kalman line (when enabled)
- Stop Dist: Current ATR-based stop distance
- Lines: Number of active signal lines displayed
- R-Status: Validation system state (Idle / Waiting / Testing)
### Trading Applications
Trend Following Approach:
1. Wait for triangle signal in trending market (ADX above threshold)
2. Enter immediately at signal candle close or wait for pullback
3. Place stop at displayed stop level
4. Trail stop using Kalman line as dynamic support/resistance
Validation Entry Approach (conservative):
1. After triangle signal, observe three-bar hold period
2. Wait for pullback to signal line (test phase)
3. Enter on R label confirmation
4. Place stop below/above signal line
5. Provides higher probability entries but reduces trade frequency
Z-Score Mean Reversion (when enabled):
1. Watch for Z-Score exceeding entry threshold (default +/-2.0)
2. Consider counter-trend entries when price touches Kalman line
3. Target return to Kalman line (Z-Score near zero)
4. Use Z-Score threshold as stop level for extreme continuation
### Optimal Conditions
The indicator performs optimally in clearly trending markets where ADX consistently exceeds the threshold. Performance degrades in sideways, choppy conditions.
Recommended timeframes:
- 1-5 minute charts: Use Crypto_1M preset (faster adaptation)
- 15-60 minute charts: Use Crypto_15M preset (balanced)
- Hourly charts: Use Forex preset (smoother)
- Daily charts: Use Stocks_Daily preset (long-term trends)
Market conditions:
- High volatility (Vol Factor above 1.5): Expect faster adaptation, wider stops needed
- Normal volatility (Vol Factor 0.7-1.5): Standard behavior
- Low volatility (Vol Factor below 0.7): Expect slower adaptation, tighter stops possible

## PARAMETER DOCUMENTATION
### Kalman Filter Settings
Preset Mode: Select optimized configuration for specific markets
- Custom: Manual parameter control
- Crypto_1M: Base Gain 0.05, ATR 7 (fast response for 1-5 minute crypto charts)
- Crypto_15M: Base Gain 0.03, ATR 14 (balanced for 15-60 minute crypto charts)
- Forex: Base Gain 0.02, ATR 14 (standard for forex pairs)
- Stocks_Daily: Base Gain 0.01, ATR 20 (smooth for daily stock charts)
Base Gain (0.001-0.2): Core Kalman filter responsiveness parameter. Higher values increase sensitivity to price changes. Low values (0.01-0.02) provide smooth output with fewer whipsaws but slower trend changes. High values (0.06-0.08) offer fast response with more signals but increased whipsaw risk.
Adaptive (checkbox): When enabled, automatically adjusts gain based on ATR ratio. Recommended to keep enabled for dynamic volatility adaptation.
ATR (5-50): Short-term Average True Range period for current volatility measurement. Default 14 is industry standard. Lower values respond faster to volatility changes.
Long ATR (20-200): Long-term ATR period for baseline volatility comparison. Default 50 provides stable reference. The ratio between ATR and Long ATR determines adaptive adjustment magnitude.
Regime Filter (checkbox): Enables ADX-based trending/ranging detection. When enabled, reduces gain by 25 percent during ranging markets to minimize false signals.
ADX Period (7-30): Period for ADX calculation. Default 14 is standard. Lower values respond faster to trend strength changes.
Threshold (15-40): ADX level distinguishing trending from ranging markets. Default 25. Above threshold: trending (generate signals normally). Below threshold: ranging (reduce sensitivity).
Min Vol / Max Vol (0.3-3.0): Bounds for volatility factor adjustment. Prevents extreme gain changes during unusual volatility spikes or quiet periods. Default minimum 0.5, maximum 2.0.
Stop ATR x (1.0-3.0): Multiplier for ATR-based stop loss distance. Default 2.0 places stops two ATRs from Kalman line. Use 1.5 for tight stops (intraday), 2.5-3.0 for wide stops (swing trading).
Show Signals (checkbox): Displays triangle signals when Kalman changes direction in trending markets. Disable to use indicator purely as dynamic support/resistance without signals.
Z-Score (checkbox): Enables mean-reversion signal generation based on statistical deviation from Kalman line.
Period (10-100): Lookback period for Z-Score standard deviation calculation. Default 20 bars. Longer periods produce smoother, less sensitive readings.
Entry (1.5-3.5): Standard deviation threshold for Z-Score signals. Default 2.0 generates signals at plus/minus two standard deviations (approximately 95th percentile moves).
Bull / Bear Colors: Customize Kalman line colors for uptrend (default teal) and downtrend (default red).
Fill (checkbox): Shows semi-transparent fill between price and Kalman line for visual trend emphasis.
### Signal Line System Settings
Signal Lines (checkbox): Displays horizontal signal lines at low (long) or high (short) of signal candles. These function as dynamic support/resistance levels.
Reverse Lines (checkbox): Shows gray horizontal lines at first opposite-colored candle after signal. Helps identify initial resistance points in new trends.
Max Lines (0-20): Maximum number of signal lines to display simultaneously. Older lines are removed as new signals appear. Use 1-2 for clean charts, 3-5 for recent support/resistance history.
Style (Solid/Dotted/Dashed): Visual style for signal and reverse lines. Dotted provides subtle appearance, solid is most prominent.
Line % / Label % (0-100): Transparency percentage for lines and labels. Zero is fully opaque, 100 is invisible.
R Labels (checkbox): Shows R labels when validation confirmation occurs. Default disabled. Enable if you want visual confirmation of successful pullback entries.
Tolerance % (0-1.0): Price deviation tolerance for test candle detection. Zero requires exact touch. 0.5 allows 0.5 percent deviation for volatile instruments.
### Dashboard Settings
Show Dashboard (checkbox): Toggles visibility of information panel. Disable for clean chart presentation.
Position: Choose dashboard location from nine positions (Top/Middle/Bottom combined with Left/Center/Right).

## LIMITATIONS AND WARNINGS
This indicator is a technical analysis tool that processes historical price data. It does not predict future price movements.
Inherent limitations:
1. Lagging nature: Like all trend indicators, the Kalman filter lags price. Signals occur after trend changes begin, not before.
2. Ranging markets: Generates fewer signals and reduced performance when ADX falls below threshold. Not optimized for sideways consolidation.
3. Whipsaw risk: In choppy, indecisive markets near ADX threshold, signals may reverse quickly despite regime filtering.
4. Parameter sensitivity: Inappropriate Base Gain settings can cause over-trading (too high) or missed trends (too low).
5. Validation requirement: The three-phase confirmation system provides higher accuracy but significantly reduces trade frequency. Not all trends produce valid pullback entries.
Not suitable for:
- Scalping strategies requiring instant signals (Kalman filter has intentional smoothing)
- Ultra-high frequency trading (indicator updates once per bar close)
- Markets with extreme overnight gaps (stops may be exceeded)
- Strategies requiring signals on Heikin Ashi, Renko, Kagi, Point and Figure, or Range charts
Risk management requirements:
This indicator provides trend direction and signal levels but does not incorporate position sizing, risk management, or account balance considerations. Users must implement appropriate position sizing, maximum daily loss limits, and portfolio diversification. Past performance does not indicate future results.
Optimal usage:
- Works optimally in clearly trending markets where ADX consistently exceeds threshold
- Performance degrades in sideways, choppy conditions
- Designed for swing trading and position trading timeframes (15-minute and above)
- Requires confirmation from price action or additional technical analysis
---
## NO REPAINT GUARANTEE
This indicator operates on bar close confirmation only. All signals, signal lines, and validation labels appear exclusively when candles close. Historical signals remain exactly where they appeared. This makes the indicator suitable for automated trading and reliable backtesting. What you see in historical data matches what appeared in real-time.
---
## ALERTS
The indicator provides eight alert conditions:
1. Kalman Buy Signal: Fires when upward triangle appears (bullish trend change in trending market)
2. Kalman Sell Signal: Fires when downward triangle appears (bearish trend change in trending market)
3. Trend Change to Bullish: Fires whenever Kalman line changes to bullish (regardless of ADX)
4. Trend Change to Bearish: Fires whenever Kalman line changes to bearish (regardless of ADX)
5. SCT-R Long Retest Confirmed: Fires when green R label appears for long validation
6. SCT-R Short Retest Confirmed: Fires when red R label appears for short validation
7. SCT Test Long Detected: Fires when test candle appears for long signal (before confirmation)
8. SCT Test Short Detected: Fires when test candle appears for short signal (before confirmation)
Alert messages include context about bar close confirmation and current price levels.
---
## CALCULATION TRANSPARENCY
While complete proprietary optimization methodology is not disclosed, the core technical approach is fully explained: Alpha-Beta Kalman filter with ATR-based adaptive gain adjustment and ADX regime detection. The signal line validation system uses a three-phase structure (hold, test, confirmation) with configurable parameters. Users can understand indicator functionality and make informed decisions about application.

Volume–Phase Analyzer ProVolume–Phase Analyzer Pro – Trend & Institutional Volume Phases
This indicator analyzes how volume behaves relative to price movement to detect whether the market is in Accumulation, Markup, Distribution, or Markdown — the same phases institutions track in professional trading.
Unlike regular volume/MA mashups, this tool combines:
• Institutional volume classification (HighVol Up/Down, LowVol, Confused Vol)
• Price–volume efficiency and wick dominance
• Multi-Timeframe directional filters
• Volatility compression signals using Bollinger Width
• Volume mapped directly into the price chart as candles
• Smart signal engine with cooldown (prevents repeated signal spam)
This helps reveal w hen Smart Money is accumulating, pushing trends, unloading positions, or flushing liquidity.
────────────────────────────────────
How It Works
1️⃣ Volume Strength vs Average Volume
Identifies whether a move is backed by genuine buying/selling power.
2️⃣ Wick & Body Analysis
Confirms whether volume produced meaningful directional pressure — not just noise.
3️⃣ Trend Alignment
Fast EMA vs Slow EMA ensures signals align with active trend.
4️⃣ Higher-Timeframe Confirmation
Confirms if current movement agrees with a larger directional bias.
5️⃣ Compression Detection
When price volatility contracts while high-volume bars appear → phase shift often ahead.
────────────────────────────────────
Signals
BUY → Confirmed bullish demand with trend backing
SELL → Confirmed bearish supply taking control
TRAP → Likely stop-hunt or absorption — often before reversal
Signals only appear when multiple institutional conditions align.
A cooldown prevents repetitive signals like BUY-BUY-BUY.
────────────────────────────────────
Background shading helps visually locate these phases.
Markup phase:
• Meaning: Buyers are in control and the market is trending up
• Background color: Light green
Markdown phase:
• Meaning: Sellers are in control and the market is trending down
• Background color: Light red
Accumulation phase:
• Meaning: Smart Money quietly buying near the bottom before an uptrend
• Background color: Teal (blue-green)
Distribution phase:
• Meaning: Smart Money quietly selling near the top before a downtrend
• Background color: Light orange/yellow
Consolidation phase:
• Meaning: Sideways movement with low conviction
• Background color: Very light grey
Transition phase:
• Meaning: Market has not picked a direction yet
• Background color: No shading (clear background)
⸻
Quick Usage Notes
• Best trades are Buy signals during Markup and Sell signals during Markdown
• Accumulation and Distribution often come before reversals
• Consolidation is a low-quality trading zone
────────────────────────────────────
How to Trade It
• Take BUY signals during Markup
• Take SELL signals during Markdown
• Expect reversals near Trap signals, especially when phase is changing
• Avoid over-trading Consolidation zones
• Volume candles below price reveal when momentum is increasing or fading
Best applied on 5m–1H for intraday and swing confirmation.
────────────────────────────────────
Why This Indicator Is Unique
• It uses p rice-volume efficiency , not standard lagging signals
• It detects S mart Money intent , not retail reactions
• It avoids spam signals using an internal cooldown logic
• It gives context, not just entries — via live market-phase analysis
This makes it a multi-purpose tool for trend trading, breakout trading, and reversal anticipation.

Liquidity Void Zone Detector [PhenLabs]📊 Liquidity Void Zone Detector
Version: PineScript™v6
📌 Description
The Liquidity Void Zone Detector is a sophisticated technical indicator designed to identify and visualize areas where price moved with abnormally low volume or rapid momentum, creating "voids" in market liquidity. These zones represent areas where insufficient trading activity occurred during price movement, often acting as magnets for future price action as the market seeks to fill these gaps.
Built on PineScript v6, this indicator employs a dual-detection methodology that analyzes both volume depletion patterns and price movement intensity relative to ATR. The revolutionary 3D visualization system uses three-layer polyline rendering with adaptive transparency and vertical offsets, creating genuine depth perception where low liquidity zones visually recede and high liquidity zones protrude forward. This makes critical market structure immediately apparent without cluttering your chart.
🚀 Points of Innovation
Dual detection algorithm combining volume threshold analysis and ATR-normalized price movement sensitivity for comprehensive void identification
Three-layer 3D visualization system with progressive transparency gradients (85%, 78%, 70%) and calculated vertical offsets for authentic depth perception
Intelligent state machine logic that tracks consecutive void bars and only renders zones meeting minimum qualification requirements
Dynamic strength scoring system (0-100 scale) that combines inverted volume ratios with movement intensity for accurate void characterization
Adaptive ATR-based spacing calculation that automatically adjusts 3D layering depth to match instrument volatility
Efficient memory management system supporting up to 100 simultaneous void visualizations with automatic array-based cleanup
🔧 Core Components
Volume Analysis Engine: Calculates rolling volume averages and compares current bar volume against dynamic thresholds to detect abnormally thin trading conditions
Price Movement Analyzer: Normalizes bar range against ATR to identify rapid price movements that indicate liquidity exhaustion regardless of instrument or timeframe
Void Tracking State Machine: Maintains persistent tracking of void start bars, price boundaries, consecutive bar counts, and cumulative strength across multiple bars
3D Polyline Renderer: Generates three-layer rectangular polylines with precise timestamp-to-bar index conversion and progressive offset calculations
Strength Calculation System: Combines volume component (inverted ratio capped at 100) with movement component (ATR intensity × 30) for comprehensive void scoring
🔥 Key Features
Automatic Void Detection: Continuously scans price action for low volume conditions or rapid movements, triggering void tracking when thresholds are exceeded
Real-Time Visualization: Creates 3D rectangular zones spanning from void initiation to termination, with color-coded depth indicating liquidity type
Adjustable Sensitivity: Configure volume threshold multiplier (0.1-2.0x), price movement sensitivity (0.5-5.0x), and minimum qualifying bars (1-10) for customized detection
Dual Color Coding: Separate visual treatment for low liquidity voids (receding red) and high liquidity zones (protruding green) based on 50-point strength threshold
Optional Compact Labels: Toggle LV (Low Volume) or HV (High Volume) circular labels at void centers for quick identification without visual clutter
Lookback Period Control: Adjust analysis window from 5 to 100 bars to match your trading timeframe and market volatility characteristics
Memory-Efficient Design: Automatically manages polyline and label arrays, deleting oldest elements when user-defined maximum is reached
Data Window Integration: Plots void detection binary, current strength score, and average volume for detailed analysis in TradingView's data window
🎨 Visualization
Three-Layer Depth System: Each void is rendered as three stacked polylines with progressive transparency (85%, 78%, 70%) and calculated vertical offsets creating authentic 3D appearance
Directional Depth Perception: Low liquidity zones recede with back layer most transparent; high liquidity zones protrude with front layer most transparent for instant visual differentiation
Adaptive Offset Spacing: Vertical separation between layers calculated as ATR(14) × 0.001, ensuring consistent 3D effect across different instruments and volatility regimes
Color Customization: Fully configurable base colors for both low liquidity zones (default: red with 80 transparency) and high liquidity zones (default: green with 80 transparency)
Minimal Chart Clutter: Closed polylines with matching line and fill colors create clean rectangular zones without unnecessary borders or visual noise
Background Highlight: Subtle yellow background (96% transparency) marks bars where void conditions are actively detected in real-time
Compact Labeling: Optional tiny circular labels with 60% transparent backgrounds positioned at void center points for quick reference
📖 Usage Guidelines
Detection Settings
Lookback Period: Default: 10 | Range: 5-100 | Number of bars analyzed for volume averaging and void detection. Lower values increase sensitivity to recent changes; higher values smooth detection across longer timeframes. Adjust based on your trading timeframe: short-term traders use 5-15, swing traders use 20-50, position traders use 50-100.
Volume Threshold: Default: 1.0 | Range: 0.1-2.0 (step 0.1) | Multiplier applied to average volume. Bars with volume below (average × threshold) trigger void conditions. Lower values detect only extreme volume depletion; higher values capture more moderate low-volume situations. Start with 1.0 and decrease to 0.5-0.7 for stricter detection.
Price Movement Sensitivity: Default: 1.5 | Range: 0.5-5.0 (step 0.1) | Multiplier for ATR-normalized price movement detection. Values above this threshold indicate rapid price changes suggesting liquidity voids. Increase to 2.0-3.0 for volatile instruments; decrease to 0.8-1.2 for ranging or low-volatility conditions.
Minimum Void Bars: Default: 10 | Range: 1-10 | Minimum consecutive bars exhibiting void conditions required before visualization is created. Filters out brief anomalies and ensures only sustained voids are displayed. Use 1-3 for scalping, 5-10 for intraday trading, 10+ for swing trading to match your time horizon.
Visual Settings
Low Liquidity Color: Default: Red (80% transparent) | Base color for zones where volume depletion or rapid movement indicates thin liquidity. These zones recede visually (back layer most transparent). Choose colors that contrast with your chart theme for optimal visibility.
High Liquidity Color: Default: Green (80% transparent) | Base color for zones with relatively higher liquidity compared to void threshold. These zones protrude visually (front layer most transparent). Ensure clear differentiation from low liquidity color.
Show Void Labels: Default: True | Toggle display of compact LV/HV labels at void centers. Disable for cleaner charts when trading; enable for analysis and review to quickly identify void types across your chart.
Max Visible Voids: Default: 50 | Range: 10-100 | Maximum number of void visualizations kept on chart. Each void uses 3 polylines, so setting of 50 maintains 150 total polylines. Higher values preserve more history but may impact performance on lower-end systems.
✅ Best Use Cases
Gap Fill Trading: Identify unfilled liquidity voids that price frequently returns to, providing high-probability retest and reversal opportunities when price approaches these zones
Breakout Validation: Distinguish genuine breakouts through established liquidity from false breaks into void zones that lack sustainable volume support
Support/Resistance Confluence: Layer void detection over key horizontal levels to validate structural integrity—levels within high liquidity zones are stronger than those in voids
Trend Continuation: Monitor for new void formation in trend direction as potential continuation zones where price may accelerate due to reduced resistance
Range Trading: Identify void zones within consolidation ranges that price tends to traverse quickly, helping to avoid getting caught in rapid moves through thin areas
Entry Timing: Wait for price to reach void boundaries rather than entering mid-void, as voids tend to be traversed quickly with limited profit-taking opportunities
⚠️ Limitations
Historical Pattern Indicator: Identifies past liquidity voids but cannot predict whether price will return to fill them or when filling might occur
No Volume on Forex: Indicator uses tick volume for forex pairs, which approximates but doesn't represent true trading volume, potentially affecting detection accuracy
Lagging Confirmation: Requires minimum consecutive bars (default 10) before void is visualized, meaning detection occurs after void formation begins
Trending Market Behavior: Strong trends driven by fundamental catalysts may create voids that remain unfilled for extended periods or permanently
Timeframe Dependency: Detection sensitivity varies significantly across timeframes; settings optimized for one timeframe may not perform well on others
No Directional Bias: Indicator identifies liquidity characteristics but provides no predictive signal for price direction after void detection
Performance Considerations: Higher max visible void settings combined with small minimum void bars can generate numerous visualizations impacting chart rendering speed
💡 What Makes This Unique
Industry-First 3D Visualization: Unlike flat volume or liquidity indicators, the three-layer rendering with directional depth perception provides instant visual hierarchy of liquidity quality
Dual-Mode Detection: Combines both volume-based and movement-based detection methodologies, capturing voids that single-approach indicators miss
Intelligent Qualification System: State machine logic prevents premature visualization by requiring sustained void conditions, reducing false signals and chart clutter
ATR-Normalized Analysis: All detection thresholds adapt to instrument volatility, ensuring consistent performance across stocks, forex, crypto, and futures without constant recalibration
Transparency-Based Depth: Uses progressive transparency gradients rather than colors or patterns to create depth, maintaining visual clarity while conveying information hierarchy
Comprehensive Strength Metrics: 0-100 void strength calculation considers both the degree of volume depletion and the magnitude of price movement for nuanced zone characterization
🔬 How It Works
Phase 1: Real-Time Detection
On each bar close, the indicator calculates average volume over the lookback period and compares current bar volume against the volume threshold multiplier
Simultaneously measures current bar's high-low range and normalizes it against ATR, comparing the result to price movement sensitivity parameter
If either volume falls below threshold OR movement exceeds sensitivity threshold, the bar is flagged as exhibiting void characteristics
Phase 2: Void Tracking & Qualification
When void conditions first appear, state machine initializes tracking variables: start bar index, initial top/bottom prices, consecutive bar counter, and cumulative strength accumulator
Each subsequent bar with void conditions extends the tracking, updating price boundaries to envelope all bars and accumulating strength scores
When void conditions cease, system checks if consecutive bar count meets minimum threshold; if yes, proceeds to visualization; if no, discards the tracking and resets
Phase 3: 3D Visualization Construction
Calculates average void strength by dividing cumulative strength by number of bars, then determines if void is low liquidity (>50 strength) or high liquidity (≤50 strength)
Generates three polyline layers spanning from start bar to end bar and from top price to bottom price, each with calculated vertical offset based on ATR
Applies progressive transparency (85%, 78%, 70%) with layer ordering creating recession effect for low liquidity zones and protrusion effect for high liquidity zones
Creates optional center label and pushes all visual elements into arrays for memory management
Phase 4: Memory Management & Display
Continuously monitors polyline array size (each void creates 3 polylines); when total exceeds max visible voids × 3, deletes oldest polylines via array.shift()
Similarly manages label array, removing oldest labels when count exceeds maximum to prevent memory accumulation over extended chart history
Plots diagnostic data to TradingView’s data window (void detection binary, current strength, average volume) for detailed analysis without cluttering main chart
💡 Note:
This indicator is designed to enhance your market structure analysis by revealing liquidity characteristics that aren’t visible through standard price and volume displays. For best results, combine void detection with your existing support/resistance analysis, trend identification, and risk management framework. Liquidity voids are descriptive of past market behavior and should inform positioning decisions rather than serve as standalone entry/exit signals. Experiment with detection parameters across different timeframes to find settings that align with your trading style and instrument characteristics.

## 📊 How It Works
DAO calculates the ratio of buying pressure to total market pressure:
1. **Calculate Buying Pressure (DemandMax):**
- If current high > previous high: DemandMax = difference
- Otherwise: DemandMax = 0
2. **Calculate Selling Pressure (DemandMin):**
- If previous low > current low: DemandMin = difference
- Otherwise: DemandMin = 0
3. **Apply Smoothing:**
- Calculate SMA of DemandMax over N periods
- Calculate SMA of DemandMin over N periods
4. **Final Formula:**
```
DAO = SMA(DemandMax) / (SMA(DemandMax) + SMA(DemandMin))
```
This produces a normalized value (0-1) representing market demand strength.

Adaptive Momentum Pressure (AMP)🔹 Adaptive Momentum Pressure (AMP)
A hybrid momentum oscillator that adapts to volatility and trend dynamics.
AMP measures the rate of change of price pressure and automatically adjusts its sensitivity based on market volatility.
It reacts faster in trending markets and smooths out noise during consolidation — helping traders identify genuine momentum shifts early while avoiding whipsaws.
🧠 Core Concept
AMP fuses three elements into one adaptive momentum model:
Normalized Momentum (ROC) – captures directional acceleration of price.
Adaptive Smoothing – the smoothing length dynamically contracts when volatility rises and expands when it falls.
Directional Bias – derived from the short-term EMA slope to weight momentum toward the prevailing trend.
Combined, these form a pressure value oscillating between –100 and +100, revealing when momentum expands or fades.
⚙️ How It Works
Calculates a normalized rate of change (ROC) relative to recent volatility.
Adjusts its effective length using the ATR — more volatile periods shorten the lookback for quicker reaction.
Applies a custom EMA that adapts in real time.
Modulates momentum by a normalized EMA slope (“trend bias”).
Produces a smoothed AMP line with a Signal line and crossover markers.
🔍 How to Read It
Green AMP line rising above Signal → Building bullish momentum.
Red AMP line falling below Signal → Fading or bearish momentum.
White Signal line = smoothed confirmation of trend energy.
Green dots = early bullish crossovers.
Red dots = early bearish crossovers.
Typical interpretations:
AMP crossing above 0 from below → early bullish impulse.
AMP peaking near +50–100 and curling down → potential momentum exhaustion.
Crosses below 0 with red pressure → bearish confirmation.

Stochastic + Bollinger Bands Multi-Timeframe StrategyThis strategy fuses the Stochastic Oscillator from the 4-hour timeframe with Bollinger Bands from the 1-hour timeframe, operating on a 10-hour chart to capture a unique volatility rhythm and temporal alignment discovered through observational alpha.
By blending momentum confirmation from the higher timeframe with short-term volatility extremes, the strategy leverages what some traders refer to as “rotating volatility” — a phenomenon where multi-timeframe oscillations sync to reveal hidden trade opportunities.
🧠 Strategy Logic
✅ Long Entry Condition:
Stochastic on the 4H timeframe:
%K crosses above %D
Both %K and %D are below 20 (oversold zone)
Bollinger Bands on the 1H timeframe:
Price crosses above the lower Bollinger Band, indicating a potential reversal
→ A long trade is opened when both momentum recovery and volatility reversion align.
✅ Long Exit Condition:
Stochastic on the 4H:
%K crosses below %D
Both %K and %D are above 80 (overbought zone)
Bollinger Bands on the 1H:
Price reaches or exceeds the upper Bollinger Band, suggesting exhaustion
→ The long trade is closed when either signal suggests a potential reversal or overextension.
🧬 Temporal Structure & Alpha
This strategy is deployed on a 10-hour chart — a non-standard timeframe that may align more effectively with multi-timeframe mean reversion dynamics.
This subtle adjustment exploits what some traders identify as “temporal drift” — the desynchronization of volatility across timeframes that creates hidden rhythm in price action.
→ For example, Stochastic on 4H (lookback 17) and Bollinger Bands on 1H (lookback 20) may periodically sync around 10H intervals, offering unique alpha windows.
📊 Indicator Components
🔹 Stochastic Oscillator (4H, Length 17)
Detects momentum reversals using %K and %D crossovers
Helps define overbought/oversold zones from a mid-term view
🔹 Bollinger Bands (1H, Length 20, ±2 StdDev)
Measures price volatility using standard deviation around a moving average
Entry occurs near lower band (support), exits near upper band (resistance)
🔹 Multi-Timeframe Logic
Uses request.security() to safely reference 4H and 1H indicators from a 10H chart
Avoids repainting by using closed higher-timeframe candles only
📈 Visualization
A plot selector input allows toggling between:
Stochastic Plot (%K & %D, with overbought/oversold levels)
Bollinger Bands Plot (Upper, Basis, Lower from 1H data)
This helps users visually confirm entry/exit triggers in real time.
🛠 Customization
Fully configurable Stochastic and BB settings
Timeframes are independently adjustable
Strategy settings like position sizing, slippage, and commission are editable

Quantura - Trendchange ZonesIntroduction
“Quantura – Trendchange Zones” is an advanced technical indicator that identifies and visualizes potential market reversal zones using dynamic RSI-based logic. It highlights areas of overbought and oversold conditions, marking them as visual zones directly on the price chart, and generates corresponding bullish and bearish signals when the RSI exits these extremes. The tool helps traders anticipate possible trend change regions and confirm momentum shifts in a clean, intuitive way.
Originality & Value
Unlike traditional RSI indicators that only show a static oscillator, this tool transforms RSI behavior into on-chart visual zones that represent structural overbought and oversold phases. It converts RSI threshold breaches into price-based regions (boxes) and marks reversal signals at the moment of momentum change.
The indicator’s originality and usefulness come from its:
Direct visualization of RSI overbought and oversold areas as dynamic chart zones.
Automatic detection of potential reversal regions where momentum exhaustion is likely.
Integration of RSI-based signals and visual cues without requiring users to monitor the RSI window.
Adjustable sensitivity for RSI length and upper/lower levels.
Clear color-coded separation of bullish and bearish phases.
Functionality & Core Logic
The indicator continuously monitors RSI values relative to the user-defined thresholds.
When RSI moves above the upper level, an Overbought Zone is created and extends until RSI falls back below that threshold.
When RSI moves below the lower level, an Oversold Zone is generated and extends until RSI returns above that level.
When RSI exits one of these zones, a corresponding Trendchange Signal (▲ bullish or ▼ bearish) appears at the transition point.
Each zone dynamically adjusts its high and low levels during formation, representing the complete range of the exhaustion phase.
Parameters & Customization
RSI Length: Defines the sensitivity of RSI calculation. Shorter lengths make signals more responsive; longer lengths filter noise.
Upper Level / Lower Level: Set thresholds for overbought and oversold conditions (default 70 / 30).
Signals: Toggle on/off for displaying bullish (▲) and bearish (▼) reversal signals.
Zones: Toggle the visualization of shaded RSI-based zones.
Colors: Fully customizable bullish and bearish colors for both signals and zones.
Visualization & Display
Bullish reversal zones (oversold exits) are shaded using the chosen bullish color (default: blue).
Bearish reversal zones (overbought exits) are shaded using the chosen bearish color (default: red).
Each completed zone is outlined and filled with transparent shading for better clarity.
Reversal arrows (▲ for bullish, ▼ for bearish) are displayed at the bar where RSI exits the extreme level.
Clean overlay design ensures compatibility with any chart style or color scheme.
Use Cases
Identify overbought and oversold periods directly on the price chart without switching to the RSI window.
Anticipate potential market reversals or exhaustion points based on RSI momentum shifts.
Combine with trend indicators, moving averages, or volume tools for confirmation.
Apply across multiple timeframes to align short-term reversal signals with higher timeframe momentum.
Use zone width and duration to assess the strength and persistence of overbought/oversold conditions.
Limitations & Recommendations
The indicator is not a standalone trading system but a visual confirmation tool.
False signals may occur in strongly trending markets where RSI remains overextended.
Optimal RSI settings may differ between assets (e.g., crypto vs. equities).
Combining this indicator with additional trend or structure filters can enhance accuracy.
Markets & Timeframes
The “Quantura – Trendchange Zones” indicator works across all markets and timeframes, including cryptocurrencies, Forex, stocks, and commodities. It is suitable for both short-term scalping and long-term swing analysis.
