Volume Weighted Sign ChangeThe VWSCI measures the relationship between price reversals and volume. Specifically, it calculates the proportion of total volume in a given window that occurs at bars where the price changes direction—i.e., where the price difference switches from positive to negative or vice versa, indicating a local maximum or minimum.
• Low VWSCI values (close to 0) suggest that little volume is associated with price reversals, which typically occurs in strong trending markets where price moves consistently in one direction with high volume, and pullbacks (if any) occur on low volume.
• High VWSCI values (closer to 100) indicate that a significant portion of the volume is tied to price turning points, which is characteristic of a ranging or choppy market with frequent reversals.
This approach combines price action (via sign changes in price differences) and volume, offering a novel twist on traditional momentum or volume-based indicators like RSI, OBV, or the Volume-Price Trend.

Wyckoff Event Detection [Alpha Extract]Wyckoff Event Detection
A powerful and intelligent indicator designed to detect key Wyckoff events in real time, helping traders analyze market structure and anticipate potential trend shifts. Using volume and price action, this script automatically identifies distribution and accumulation phases, providing traders with valuable insights into market behavior.
🔶 Phase-Based Detection
Utilizes a phase detection algorithm that evaluates price and volume conditions to identify accumulation (bullish) and distribution (bearish) events. This method ensures the script effectively captures major market turning points and avoids noise.
🔶 Multi-Factor Event Recognition
Incorporates multiple event conditions, including upthrusts, selling climaxes, and springs, to detect high-probability entry and exit points. Each event is filtered through customizable sensitivity settings, ensuring precise detection aligned with different trading styles.
🔶 Customizable Parameters
Fine-tune event detection with adjustable thresholds for volume, price movement, trend strength, and event spacing. These inputs allow traders to personalize the script to match their strategy and risk tolerance.
// === USER INPUTS ===
i_volLen = input.int(20, "Volume MA Length", minval=1)
i_priceLookback = input.int(20, "Price Pattern Lookback", minval=5)
i_lineLength = input.int(15, "Line Length", minval=5)
i_labelSpacing = input.int(5, "Minimum Label Spacing (bars)", minval=1, maxval=20)
❓How It Works
🔶 Event Identification
The script scans for key Wyckoff events by analyzing volume spikes, price deviations, and trend shifts within a user-defined lookback period. It categorizes events into bullish (accumulation) or bearish (distribution) structures and plots them directly on the chart.
// === EVENT DETECTION ===
volMA = ta.sma(volume, i_volLen)
highestHigh = ta.highest(high, i_priceLookback)
lowestLow = ta.lowest(low, i_priceLookback)
🔶 Automatic Filtering & Cleanup
Unconfirmed or weak signals are filtered out using customizable strength multipliers and volume thresholds. Events that do not meet the minimum conditions are discarded to keep the chart clean and informative.
🔶 Phase Strength Analysis
The script continuously tracks bullish and bearish event counts to determine whether the market is currently in an accumulation, distribution, or neutral phase. This allows traders to align their strategies accordingly.
🔶 Visual Alerts & Labels
Detects and labels key Wyckoff events directly on the chart, providing immediate insights into market conditions:
- PSY (Preliminary Supply) and UT (Upthrust) for distribution phases.
- PS (Preliminary Support) and SC (Selling Climax) for accumulation phases.
- Labels adjust dynamically to avoid chart clutter and improve readability.
🔶 Entry & Exit Optimization
By highlighting supply and demand imbalances, the script assists traders in identifying optimal entry and exit points. Wyckoff concepts such as springs and upthrusts provide clear trade signals based on market structure.
🔶 Trend Confirmation & Risk Management
Observing how price reacts to detected events helps confirm trend direction and potential reversals. Traders can place stop-loss and take-profit levels based on Wyckoff phase analysis, ensuring strategic trade execution.
🔶 Table-Based Market Analysis (Table)
A built-in table summarizes:
- Market Phase: Accumulation, Distribution, or Neutral.
- Strength of Phase: Weak, Moderate, or Strong.
- Price Positioning: Whether price is near support, resistance, or in a trading range.
- Supply/Demand State: Identifies whether the market is supply or demand dominant.
🔶 Why Choose Wyckoff Market Phases - Alpha Extract?

Liquidity Market Seeking SwiftEdgeThis indicator is designed to identify potential liquidity levels on the chart by detecting swing highs and lows, which are often areas where stop-loss orders or significant orders accumulate. It visualizes these levels with horizontal lines and labels on the right side of the chart, color-coded based on volume to help traders understand where the market might seek liquidity.
How It Works
Swing Highs and Lows: The indicator uses the ta.pivothigh and ta.pivotlow functions to identify significant swing points over a user-defined lookback period (Swing Length). These points are considered potential liquidity levels where stop-loss orders might be placed.
Volume Analysis: The indicator compares the volume at each swing point to the average volume over a specified period (Volume Average Length). Levels with above-average volume are colored red, indicating higher liquidity, while levels with below-average volume are colored green.
Liquidity Visualization: Horizontal dashed lines are drawn at each identified level, extending across the chart. Labels on the right side display the estimated liquidity amount (simulated based on volume and a multiplier, Volume Multiplier for Liquidity).
Sell Signal: A "SELL NOW" label appears when the price approaches a liquidity level after an uptrend (detected using a simple moving average crossover). This suggests a potential reversal as the market may target liquidity at that level.
Strategy Concept: Market Seeking Liquidity
The indicator is based on the concept that markets often move toward areas of high liquidity, such as clusters of stop-loss orders or significant order accumulations. These liquidity pools are typically found around swing highs and lows, where traders place their stop-losses or large orders. By identifying these levels and highlighting those with higher volume (red lines), the indicator aims to show where the market might move to "grab" this liquidity. For example, after an uptrend, the market may reverse at a swing high to take out stop-losses above that level, providing liquidity for larger players to enter or exit positions.
Settings
Swing Length: The number of bars to look back for detecting swing highs and lows. Default is 20.
Liquidity Threshold: The price threshold for merging nearby levels to avoid duplicates. Default is 0.001.
Volume Average Length: The period for calculating the average volume to compare against. Default is 20.
Volume Multiplier for Liquidity: A multiplier to scale the volume into a simulated liquidity amount (displayed as "K"). Default is 1000.
Usage Notes
Use this indicator on any timeframe, though it may be more effective on higher timeframes (e.g., 1H, 4H) where swing points are more significant.
Red lines indicate levels with higher volume, suggesting stronger liquidity pools that the market might target.
Green lines indicate levels with lower volume, which may be less significant.
The "SELL NOW" signal is a basic example of how to use liquidity levels for trading decisions. It appears when the price approaches a liquidity level after an uptrend, but it should be used in conjunction with other analysis.
Adjust the Volume Multiplier for Liquidity to scale the displayed liquidity amounts based on your instrument (e.g., forex pairs may need a higher multiplier than indices).
THMA VWAP Oscillator [by Oberlunar]The THMA VWAP Oscillator of Oberlunar is a trend-following and liquidity-sensitive indicator that blends the Triple Hull Moving Average (THMA) with Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) deviation bands to highlight high-probability trading setups. It helps traders differentiate between healthy momentum moves and market noise , making it an effective tool for spotting trend continuations, reversals, and mean reversion trades .
At its core, the THMA is an advanced moving average that smooths price action while minimizing lag. Unlike conventional moving averages that react slowly, the THMA dynamically adapts to market conditions by applying a weighted smoothing process. This allows it to react more efficiently to momentum shifts , making it ideal for trend-following and breakout strategies .
The VWAP acts as a volume-weighted price equilibrium, giving traders a framework for understanding institutional positioning. Since VWAP considers both price and volume , it helps determine whether the market is trading at a premium or a discount relative to where most of the volume has transacted. The inclusion of VWAP deviation bands , derived from standard deviations, enhances the ability to detect overbought and oversold conditions , ensuring that signals align with key liquidity levels.
The indicator generates buy and sell signals based on a structured methodology that incorporates trend direction, liquidity positioning, and momentum confirmation . A buy signal is triggered when the THMA on a higher timeframe is positioned below the THMA of the current timeframe, indicating that the broader trend is supportive of an upward move. Additionally, the THMA must be trading below the lower VWAP deviation band , suggesting that price is in a discounted liquidity zone, which is often an area where institutional buyers step in. To ensure that the signal is not just a random fluctuation, the THMA must also show positive slope , meaning it is actively rising, confirming that price is attempting to reverse or continue its upward move with strength.
A sell signal follows the same logic in reverse. The THMA on a higher timeframe must be above the THMA of the current timeframe, confirming alignment with a broader downtrend. The THMA must also be positioned above the upper VWAP deviation band , signaling that price is extended and potentially due for a reversal. To validate that the momentum is actually weakening, the THMA must be in a declining slope , ensuring that price is not simply pausing but actually entering a phase of downward acceleration.
One of the key nuances of the THMA VWAP Oscillator is how it visually represents momentum through the serpentine line , which dynamically shifts color as it develops. When the serpentine line maintains a consistent color—green in an uptrend or red in a downtrend—it signals strong trend conviction . However, when the color fluctuates rapidly between green and red, it indicates a weakening signal , suggesting that price action is becoming choppy and trend strength is deteriorating. This alternation in color serves as an early warning of potential reversals, false breakouts, or trend exhaustion. Traders should be cautious when signals appear in conjunction with an unstable serpentine, as they are less likely to be reliable in such conditions.
To further enhance signal quality, the indicator incorporates a signal alternation mechanism , ensuring that consecutive buy or sell signals do not appear unless the previous trade setup has been invalidated. This helps prevent overtrading in consolidating markets and reduces the chances of chasing false breakouts. Additionally, the placement of buy and sell labels is optimized using ATR-based scaling , positioning them strategically above or below price action to maintain chart clarity without interfering with live price movements.
By integrating trend structure, liquidity positioning, and signal validation , the THMA VWAP Oscillator provides a structured approach to trade execution. It is particularly effective for traders looking to capture breakout moves, pullback entries, and mean reversion opportunities , as it ensures that entries are aligned with market momentum, institutional positioning, and price equilibrium dynamics . The ability to filter out weak signals while identifying strong momentum trends makes it an indispensable tool for trend-followers, breakout traders, and mean reversion specialists alike .

Multi-Timeframe EMA [TradeWithRon]Multi-Timeframe EMA Indicator
This indicator displays an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) from a higher timeframe on a lower timeframe chart. The EMA is a type of moving average that gives more weight to recent prices, making it more responsive to price changes compared to a Simple Moving Average (SMA). By overlaying a higher timeframe EMA on a lower timeframe chart, you can gain insights into the broader trend while analyzing price action at a more granular level.
🔶 FEATURES
* 5 MTF EMA with price and timeframe labels
* Smoothing: Alter the smoothness of the back-end EMA calculations.
* VWAP
Why Use EMA
Trend Identification: When the price is above the EMA, it suggests an uptrend, while a price below the EMA indicates a downtrend. The steeper the slope of the EMA, the stronger the trend.
Crossovers : A common strategy is to look for crossovers, such as when a short-term EMA crosses above a long-term EMA, signaling a potential buying opportunity (bullish crossover), or when a short-term EMA crosses below a long-term EMA, signaling a potential selling opportunity (bearish crossover).
Support and Resistance : EMAs can act as dynamic support and resistance levels. In an uptrend, the price may bounce off the EMA as support, while in a downtrend, it can act as resistance.
Convergence and Divergence: Traders look for divergences between price and the EMA to spot potential trend reversals. For example, if price makes a new high but the EMA doesn't, it could signal weakening momentum.
Overall, the EMA helps traders follow the market trend, spot potential reversals, and make more informed trading decisions.
After EMA Crosses you may experience A MSS, CISD, SFP. You can use all of these as confluence for a higher probability trade. This is a good way to capitalize on a trade
Another Case
How I Personally Use It:
Shortest EMA ( Example: 10 EMA ) = Entry
Middle EMA ( Example: 50 EMA ) = Short Term Support / Resistance
Longest EMA ( Example: 100 EMA ) = Long Term Support / Resistance

Crabs Multi-Timeframe Chaikin Money FlowThis indicator uses the classic Chaikin Money Flow formula, which consists of two main components:
Money Flow Multiplier: This determines whether money is flowing into or out of an asset during a period.
Money Flow Volume: This is the volume weighted by the multiplier.
This indicator adds to the basic CMF by using calculations for separate timeframes (1W, 1D, 4H, 1H). It will average the selected timeframes to create a composite line as well as a composite moving average. The indicator is completely customizable for colors/shading and will display a background shading change (when selected) indicating a change in direction of CMF. Each timeframe is selectable to display or not as desired - this will change the overall map of the CMF and the composites.
The indicator also ads user defined smoothing factors to reduce potential false signals.
A scaling feature is included which will allow for a very detailed numerical scale for the plot. If used in conjunction with the optional user defined upper and lower level lines, this can assist traders in identifying deeply overbought or oversold areas. These lines can also be selected to trigger alerts when hit.
It is also possible to use this indicator with traditional bullish/bearish divergence similar to how some might interpret the same with other popular indicators such as rsi/macd, etc.
This indicator can be used on larger timeframes to help identify possible swings and is a robust tool for visualization of potentially large market moves.

Whale Buy Activity Detector (Real-Time)Whale Buy Activity Detector (Real-Time)
This indicator helps to identify abnormal spikes in the volume of purchases, which may indicate the activity of large players ("whales"). It analyzes the volume of purchases and compares it with the average volume over a certain period of time. If the volume of purchases exceeds a set threshold, the indicator marks this as potential whale activity.
Basic parameters:
Volume Threshold (x Average): The coefficient by which the current purchase volume must exceed the average volume in order to be considered abnormal. The default value is 2.0, which means that the purchase volume should be 2 times the average volume for the selected time period. This parameter can be adjusted in the range from 1.0 and higher in increments of 0.1.
Example: If you set the value to 1.5, the indicator will mark situations when the volume of purchases exceeds the average volume by 1.5 times.
Lookback Period: The time period used to calculate the average purchase volume. The default value is 20, which means that the average purchase volume will be calculated for the last 20 candles. This parameter can be set in the range from 1 and above.Example: If you set the value to 10, the average purchase volume will be calculated for the last 10 candles.
How to use:
Buy Volume: Shows the volume of purchases on each candle. This is the volume that was sold at a price higher than the opening price of the candle.
Average Buy Volume: The average volume of purchases over a given time period (Lookback Period). This parameter helps to determine the "normal" level of purchase volume.
Whale Buy: Notes abnormal spikes in the volume of purchases, which may indicate the activity of "whales". The indicator draws a mark on the top of the candle when the purchase volume exceeds the threshold set by the Volume Threshold parameter.
Notifications:
The indicator can send notifications when an abnormal volume of purchases is detected. You can set up notifications via the TradingView menu to receive real-time alerts.
Usage example:
If you are trading in a highly volatile market, you can increase the Volume Threshold to filter out small volume spikes.
If you trade in a low-volatility market, you can reduce the Volume Threshold to capture even small anomalies.
AVWAP Band✨ AVWAP Band by Mars ✨
The AVWAP Band indicator eliminates the guesswork of selecting multipliers for your VWAP analysis. Instead of using arbitrary deviations, this indicator provides three distinct VWAP lines calculated from different price points - giving you a complete VWAP band with just one tool.
What Makes This Different From Standard VWAP
Traditional VWAP indicators use multipliers (1.0, 2.0, 3.0) which require constant adjustment across different markets and timeframes. The AVWAP Band simplifies this by using natural price points:
Low-based VWAP (green) - acts as support
High-based VWAP (red) - acts as resistance
HL2-based VWAP (gray) - acts as the centerline
Key Features
Reduces cognitive load - no more guessing which multiplier to use
User-selected anchor point (click to set date)
Customizable colors and line styles
Built-in alerts for all crossover/crossunder events
Visual anchor point marker
How To Use It
After adding the indicator to your chart, you have to click on your anchor point
Watch for price reactions at each VWAP line
Look for crossovers between price and the different VWAPs
Use the HL2 VWAP as a centerline to determine overall bias
Trading Applications
Support/Resistance levels for intraday trading
Mean-reversion signals when price touches band extremes
Trend confirmation when price holds above/below centerline
Range identification between upper and lower bands
Volatility assessment based on band width
Customization Options
Toggle each VWAP line individually
Adjust line colors to match your chart theme
Control line width and transparency

1. Look for when the Liquidity Delta crosses above the upper threshold for bullish signals
2. Look for when the Liquidity Delta crosses below the lower threshold for bearish signals
3. Especially powerful when crossing occurs with acceleration (darker histogram colors)
For Support and Resistance
1. Identify where the significant bull/bear zones appear (green/red circles)
2. These often align with important price levels where orders cluster
3. Use these zones as potential reversal or confirmation points
For Divergence
1. Watch for price making new highs/lows while liquidity shows the opposite
2. Divergence between price and liquidity can signal potential reversals
Volume Confirmation
1. Pay attention to volume-confirmed signals (small circles at zero line)
2. These indicate stronger conviction behind the liquidity imbalance
Optimal Settings
- For day trading or volatile markets, consider reducing lookback periods and increasing thresholds
- For swing trading, the default settings work well to capture significant zones
- In ranging markets, focus on the zones as they often mark the range boundaries
- In trending markets, follow the overall direction of the liquidity delta
Reading Acceleration Signals
The indicator shows color intensity variations to highlight acceleration in liquidity flows:
- Dark green/red: Strong acceleration (rapid shift in order flow)
- Medium green/red: Medium acceleration
- Light green/red: Weak acceleration
These acceleration signals often precede significant price movements.
Liquidity Location Detector [BigBeluga]
This indicator helps traders identify potential liquidity zones by detecting significant volume levels at key highs and lows. By using color intensity and scoring numbers, it visually highlights areas where liquidity concentration may be highest while incorporating trend analysis through EMAs.
🔵Key Features:
Liquidity Zone Detection: Automatically detects and marks areas where significant volume has accumulated at swing highs and lows.
Dynamic Box Plotting: Draws liquidity boxes at key highs and lows, updating based on market conditions.
Volume Strength Scaling: Uses a scoring system to rank liquidity zones, helping traders identify the strongest areas.
Color Intensity for Volume Strength: More transperent color indicate less liquidity, while less transperent represent stronger volume concentrations.
Customizable Display: Users can adjust the number of displayed liquidity zones and modify colors to suit their trading style.
Real-Time Liquidity Adaptation: As price interacts with liquidity zones, the indicator updates dynamically to reflect changing market conditions.
Auto-Stopping Liquidity Zones: Liquidity boxes automatically stop extending to the right once price crosses them, preventing outdated zones from interfering with live market action.
Trend Analysis with EMAs: Includes two optional EMAs (fast and slow) to help traders analyze market trends. Users can enable or disable these EMAs in the settings and use crossover signals for trend confirmation.
🔵Usage:
Identify Key Liquidity Areas: Use color intensity and transparency levels to determine high-impact liquidity zones.
Support & Resistance Confirmation: Liquidity zones can act as potential support and resistance levels, enhancing trade decision-making.
Market Structure Analysis: Observe how price interacts with liquidity to anticipate breakout or reversal points.
Scalping & Swing Trading: Works for both short-term and long-term traders looking for liquidity-based trade setups.
Liquidation Map Insight: A liquidity map highlights areas where large amounts of leveraged positions (both long and short) are likely to get liquidated. Since many traders use leverage, sharp price movements can trigger a cascade of liquidations, leading to rapid price surges or drops. Monitoring these liquidity zones and trends helps traders anticipate where price might react strongly.
Liquidity Location Detector is an essential tool for traders seeking to map out potential liquidity zones, providing deeper insights into market structure and trading volume dynamics.
Enhanced Volume Spike ScannerEnhanced Volume Spike Scanner – User Instructions
Overview
This TradingView indicator monitors the trading volume of a list of selected tickers and detects “volume spikes” by comparing the current volume against a simple moving average (SMA) of past volumes. It calculates a “spike strength” (the ratio of current volume to average volume) and assigns a color based on its intensity. The indicator then displays a sorted table on your chart with each ticker’s symbol, spike value, and current volume. Alerts can be triggered if a ticker’s spike strength reaches specific color-coded levels.
How It Works
1. Volume Calculation:
• For each ticker, the indicator fetches the current volume and calculates its simple moving average (SMA) over a user-defined lookback period.
• The ratio of the current volume to the SMA (spike strength) is computed.
2. Color Coding:
• A color is assigned based on the spike strength:
• >5.0: Orange
• >4.0: Yellow
• >3.0: Green
• >2.5: Lime
• >2.0: Blue
• Otherwise: Pink
• These colors serve as visual cues for the intensity of the volume spike.
3. Table Display:
• All tickers are listed in a table on the chart.
• The table is sorted in descending order of spike strength so that the tickers with the strongest volume spikes appear at the top.
• Each row displays the ticker symbol, its spike value (formatted to two decimal places), and the current volume.
4. Alerts:
• You can enable alerts for each color level (e.g., Orange for the most intense spikes).
• Alerts trigger once per bar for any ticker that meets the criteria, allowing you to react promptly to significant volume changes.
⸻
User Inputs and Customization
• Volume Spike Multiplier:
Set the threshold for what constitutes a spike (e.g., a value of 2.0 means the current volume must be at least twice the SMA to be considered a spike).
• Volume Lookback Period:
Define how many bars to use when calculating the SMA of the volume.
• Minimum Volume Filter:
Optionally enable a filter to ignore low-volume ticks. Specify the minimum volume that must be reached for a ticker to be considered.
• Table Settings:
Adjust parameters like column width, table number, and vertical positioning to suit your chart layout.
• Alert Settings:
Toggle alerts for each spike intensity level. Only tickers that meet the specified color threshold will trigger an alert.
• Color Inputs:
Customize the colors for each spike intensity level using the color input settings.
• Ticker Inputs:
Update the ticker symbols manually in the input section (Ticker 1, Ticker 2, etc.) to monitor the assets you are interested in.
⸻
Using the Indicator
1. Add the Indicator:
Once added to your chart, the table will appear at the top-right corner. You can reposition it using the “Table Number” or “Move Down” inputs.
2. Monitor the Table:
Watch the table update each bar:
• The Symbol column lists your selected tickers.
• The Spike column shows the spike strength along with its corresponding color (indicating intensity).
• The Volume column shows the current volume for each ticker.
3. React to Alerts:
If you have enabled alerts for a specific intensity, you’ll receive a notification (once per bar) when a ticker reaches that volume spike level.
4. Adjust Settings as Needed:
Experiment with the multipliers, lookback periods, and minimum volume thresholds to fine-tune the indicator for your trading style.

ZenAlgo - LevelsThis script combines multiple anchored Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) calculations into a single tool, providing a continuous record of past VWAP levels and highlighting when price has tested them. Typically, VWAP indicators show only the current VWAP for a single anchor period, requiring you to either keep re-anchoring manually or juggle multiple instances of different VWAP tools for each timeframe. By contrast, this script automatically tracks both the ongoing VWAP and previously completed VWAP values, along with real-time detection of “tests” (when price crosses a particular VWAP level). It’s especially valuable for traders who want to see how price has interacted with VWAP over several sessions, weeks, or months—without switching between separate indicators or manually setting anchors.
Below is a comprehensive explanation of each component, why multiple VWAP lines working together can be more informative than a single line, and how to adjust the script for various markets and trading styles:
Primary VWAP vs. Historical VWAP Lines - Standard VWAP indicators typically focus on the current line only. This script also calculates a primary VWAP, but it “locks in” each completed VWAP value when a new time anchor is detected (e.g., new weekly bar, new monthly bar, new session). As a result, you retain an ongoing history of VWAP lines for every completed anchored period. This is more powerful than manually setting up multiple VWAP tools—one for each desired timeframe—because everything is handled in a single script. You avoid chart clutter and the risk of forgetting to reset your manual VWAP at the correct bar.
Why Combine Multiple Anchored VWAP Lines in One Script? - Viewing several anchored VWAP lines together offers synergy . You see not only the current VWAP but also previous ones from different sessions or months, all within the same chart pane. This synergy becomes apparent if multiple historical VWAP lines cluster near the same price level, indicating a potentially significant zone of volume-based support or resistance. Handling this manually would involve repeatedly setting separate VWAP indicators, each reset at specific points, which is time-consuming and prone to error. In this script, the process is automated: as soon as the anchor changes, a completed VWAP line is stored so you can observe how price eventually reacts to it, repeatedly or not at all.
Automated “Test” Detection - Once a historical VWAP line is set, the script tracks when price crosses it in subsequent bars. If the high and low of a bar span that line, the script marks it in red (both the line and its label). It also keeps a counter of how many times each line has been tested. This method goes beyond a simple visual approach by quantifying the retests. Because all these lines are created and managed in one place, you don’t have to manually label the lines or check them one by one.
Advantages Over Manually Setting Multiple VWAPs
You save screen space: Instead of layering several VWAP indicators, each with unique settings, this single script plots them all on one overlay.
Automation: When a new anchor period begins, the script “closes out” the old VWAP and starts a new one. You never need to remember to reset it manually.
Retest Visualization: The script not only draws each line but also changes color and updates the label automatically if a line gets tested. Doing this by hand would be labor-intensive.
Unified Parameters: All settings (e.g., array size, max distance, test count limit) apply uniformly. You can manage them from one place, instead of configuring multiple separate tools.
Extended Insight with Multiple VWAP Lines
Since VWAP reflects the volume-weighted average price for each chosen period, historical lines can show zones where the market had a fair-value consensus in previous intervals. When the script preserves these lines, you see potential support/resistance areas more distinctly. If, for instance, price continually pivots around an old VWAP line, that may reveal a strong volume-based level. With several older VWAP lines on the chart, you gain an immediate sense of where these volume-derived averages have appeared and how price reacted over time. This wider perspective often proves more revealing than a single “current” VWAP line that does not reflect previous anchor sessions.
Handling of Illiquid Markets and Volume Limitations
VWAP is inherently tied to volume data, so its reliability decreases if volume reporting is missing or if the asset trades with very low liquidity. In such cases, a single large trade might momentarily skew the VWAP, resulting in “false” test signals when the high/low range intersects an abnormal price swing. If you suspect the data is incomplete or the market is unusually thin, it’s wise to confirm the validity of these VWAP lines before using them for any decision-making. Additionally, unusual market conditions—like after-hours trading or sudden high-volatility events—may cause VWAP to shift quickly, setting up multiple lines in a short time.
Key User-Configurable Settings
Hide VWAP on Day timeframe and above : Lets you disable the primary VWAP plot on daily or higher timeframes for a cleaner view.
Anchor Period : Select from Session, Week, Month, Quarter, Year, Decade or Century. Controls how frequently the script resets and preserves the VWAP line.
Offset : Moves the current VWAP line by a specified number of bars if you need a shifted perspective.
Max Array Size : Caps how many past VWAP lines the script will remember. Prevents clutter if you’re charting very long histories.
Max Distance : Defines how far back (in bar index units) a line is kept. If a line’s start bar is older than this threshold, it’s removed, keeping the chart uncluttered.
Max Red Labels : Limits the number of tested (red) VWAP lines that appear. If price tests a large number of old lines, only the newest red labels remain once you hit the set limit.
Workflow Overview
As soon as a new anchor period begins (e.g., a new weekly candle if “Week” is chosen), the script ends the current VWAP and stores that final value in its internal arrays.
It creates a dotted line and label representing the completed VWAP, and keeps track of whether it has been tested or not.
Subsequent bars may then cross that line. If a bar’s high/low includes the line’s value, it’s flagged as tested, labeled red, and a test counter increases.
As new anchored periods come, old lines remain visible—unless they fall outside your maxDistance or you exceed the maximum stored line count.
Real-World Benefits
Combining multiple VWAP lines—ranging, for example, from session-based lines for intraday perspectives to monthly or quarterly lines for broader context—provides a layered view of the volume-based fair price. This can help you quickly spot zones where price repeatedly intersects old VWAPs, potentially highlighting where bulls or bears took action historically. Because this script automates the management of all these lines and flags their retests, it removes a great deal of repetitive manual work that would typically accompany multiple, separate VWAP indicators set to different anchors.
Limitations & Practical Use
As with any volume-related tool, the script depends on reliable volume data. Assets trading on smaller venues or during illiquid periods may produce spurious signals. The script does not signal buy or sell decisions; rather, it helps visually map out where volume-weighted averages from previous periods might still be relevant to market behavior. Always combine the insight from these historical VWAP lines with your existing analytical approach or other technical and fundamental tools you use.
Conclusion
This script unifies past and present VWAP lines into one overlay, automatically detecting new anchor resets, storing the final VWAP values, and indicating whenever old lines are retested by price. It offers synergy through the simultaneous display of multiple historical VWAP lines, making it quicker and easier to detect potential support/resistance zones and better reflect changing market volumes over time. You no longer need to manually create, configure, or reset multiple VWAP indicators. Instead, the script handles all aspects of line creation, retest detection, and clutter management, giving you a robust framework to observe how historical VWAP data aligns with current price action.
By understanding the significance of multiple anchored VWAP lines, you can assess market structure from multiple angles in a single view. As always, ensure you confirm the reliability of the volume data for your particular asset and use these lines in conjunction with other analyses to form a well-rounded perspective on current market behavior.
Dynamic Timeframe Trend AnalyzerPurpose and Core Logic
This indicator automatically adjusts its calculations based on the current chart’s timeframe, allowing traders to analyze trends, momentum, and mean reversion opportunities without manually changing indicator settings for each interval. It detects potential long or short setups by combining several techniques:
Dynamic Timeframe Factor
The script compares the current timeframe to a base (e.g., 5 minutes) and calculates a “factor” to scale certain parameters, such as EMA lengths or ATR settings. This reduces the need to reconfigure indicators when switching timeframes.
Regime Detection
It uses ADX (Average Directional Index) to classify the market as strongly trending, moderately trending, choppy, or in a potential mean-reversion phase.
RSI (Relative Strength Index) is also monitored for extreme levels (e.g., overbought/oversold) to detect potential reversal zones.
Volume is compared to a moving average to confirm or refute volatility conditions.
Trend & Mean Reversion Signals
EMA Alignment (8/21/55) helps identify bullish or bearish phases (strong bull if all EMAs align upward, strong bear if aligned downward).
For mean reversion opportunities, the script checks if ADX is sufficiently low (indicating weak or no trend) while price and RSI are at extreme levels—suggesting a snapback or countertrend move may occur.
Dynamic Stop Loss & Take Profit
Uses ATR (Average True Range) to set initial stop-loss (SL) and take-profit (TP) levels, then adjusts these levels further with “regime multipliers” based on whether the market is in a high-volatility trend or a quieter mean-reversion environment.
This approach aims to place stops and targets in a more adaptive way, reflecting current market conditions rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
Visual Aids
Color-coded chart backgrounds (e.g., greenish for bullish trend, red for bearish, yellow/orange for mean reversion).
Triangles to show recent bullish/bearish signals.
A status table in the top-right corner (optional) displaying key metrics like ADX, RSI, dynamic thresholds, current SL/TP levels, and whether a stop loss has been hit.
How It Works Internally
ADX & Dynamic Thresholds:
A moving average (adx_mean) and standard deviation (adx_std) of the ADX are calculated over a lookback period to define “strong” vs. “weak” ADX thresholds.
This allows the script to adapt to changing volatility and trend strength in different markets or timeframes.
Mean Reversion Criteria:
The indicator checks if price deviates significantly from its own moving average, alongside RSI extremes. If ADX suggests no strong directional push (i.e., the market is “quiet”), it may classify conditions as mean-reverting.
Regime Multipliers:
Once the script identifies the market regime (e.g., strong uptrend, choppy, mean reversion), it applies different multipliers to the user-defined base values for stop-loss and take-profit. For instance, strong trending conditions might allow for wider stops to handle volatility, while mean reversion signals use tighter exits to capture quick reversals.
How to Use It
Timeframe Agnostic
Simply apply it to any timeframe (from 1-minute up to daily or weekly). The “Dynamic Timeframe Factor” will scale the indicator parameters automatically.
Look for Buy/Sell Triangles
When the script detects a valid bullish trend shift or a mean-reversion long setup, it plots a green triangle under the price bar. Conversely, it plots a red triangle above the price bar for bearish or mean-reversion short setups.
Check the Status Table
The table in the top-right corner summarizes the indicator’s current readings: ADX, RSI, volume trends, and the market regime classification.
The table also shows if a stop loss has been hit (SL Hit) and displays recommended SL/TP levels if a signal is active.
Stop Loss & Take Profit
The script plots lines for SL and TP on your chart after a new signal. These lines are automatically adjusted based on ATR, volume conditions, and ADX-derived multipliers.
Mean Reversion vs. Trend-Following
If you see a “Mean Rev” state in the table or the background turning yellow/orange, it suggests potential countertrend trades. Conversely, “STRONG BULL” or “STRONG BEAR” states favor momentum-based entries in the prevailing direction.
Originality & Benefits
Adaptive to Timeframe: Many indicators require reconfiguration when switching from short to long timeframes. This script automates that process using the “timeframe factor” logic.
Regime-Based SL/TP: Instead of fixed risk parameters, the script dynamically tunes stop and target levels depending on whether the market is trending or reverting.
Comprehensive Market View: It combines multiple factors—ADX, RSI, volume, moving averages, and volatility measurements—into a single, integrated framework that categorizes the market regime in real time.
Best Practices & Notes
Timeframes: It typically performs well on intraday timeframes (5m, 15m, 1H) but can also be used for swing trading on 4H or Daily charts.
Settings: The defaults are a good starting point, but you can adjust the base ATR multiplier or ADX lookbacks if you prefer a different balance between sensitivity and stability.
Risk Management: This indicator is not a guarantee of any specific results. Always use proper risk management (position sizing, stop-losses, and diversified strategies).
Alert Conditions: Built-in alert conditions can notify you when a new long or short signal appears, or when a stop loss is triggered.
Chaikin Money Flow with EnhancementsThis enhanced version of the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) indicator is designed to help traders better understand market sentiment by visualizing momentum shifts and trends based on volume-weighted accumulation and distribution.
CMF Calculation: The CMF line is calculated using the typical CMF formula, which compares the close price to the high/low range, weighted by volume.
Fading Color Zones: Green and red fading zones are added between the CMF line and the zero line. Green represents bullish momentum (CMF above zero), and red represents bearish momentum (CMF below zero). These zones highlight key shifts in market sentiment.
Cross Detection: The indicator detects when the CMF crosses above or below the zero line, signaling potential trend changes. The price and CMF values at the time of the cross are stored and can be used for further analysis.
Average Line: A configurable moving average of the CMF is plotted to provide a smoothed trendline, helping traders identify the overall direction of market sentiment.
This indicator is ideal for traders who want to enhance their technical analysis by incorporating volume-weighted momentum indicators and identifying trend reversals more clearly.

A stronger trend results in more opaque band fills, indicating a clear directional bias.
Weaker trends or consolidations result in fainter fills, signaling a loss of momentum.
Reversal Signals
If price touches the upper band in a bullish move and starts reversing, it can indicate potential profit-taking areas.
If price approaches the lower band in a bearish move and rebounds, a short-term reversal may be imminent.
Volatility Insights
Narrow bands indicate low volatility and possible breakout conditions.
Wider bands suggest increased volatility, warning traders of potential price swings.
