Trap Detector Signals [Tweaked Version]This script highlights potential institutional liquidity traps by detecting price extensions relative to VWAP during periods of short-term volatility compression — using manual VIX9D input as a proxy for complacency.
Volume
Volume-Based Candle ShadingThe Volume Shading indicator dynamically adjusts the color brightness of each price bar based on relative volume levels. It helps traders quickly identify whether a candle formed on low, average, or high volume without needing to reference a separate volume pane.
Candles are shaded dynamically as they form, so you can watch volume flow into them in real time. This indicator is designed to be as minimally intrusive as possible, allowing you to visualize volume levels without extra clutter on your charts.
The additional volume indicator in the preview above is there just for a point of reference to allow you to see how the shading on the bars correlates to the volume.
⸻
SETTINGS:
Bullish and bearish base colors — These serve as the midpoint (average volume) for shading.
Brightness mapping direction — Optionally invert the shading so that either high volume appears darker or lighter.
Volume smoothing length — Defines how many bars are averaged to determine what constitutes “normal” volume.
Candles with volume above average will appear darker or lighter depending on user preference, while those with average volume will be painted the chosen colors, giving an intuitive gradient that enhances volume awareness directly on the chart.
⸻
USES:
Confirming price action: Highlight when breakout candles or reversal bars occur with high relative volume, strengthening signal conviction.
Spotting low-volume moves: Identify candles that lack volume support, potentially signaling weak continuation or false breakouts.
Enhancing visual analysis: Overlay volume dynamics directly onto price bars, reducing screen clutter and aiding faster decision-making.
Custom visual workflows: Adapt the visual behavior of candles to your trading style by choosing color direction and base tones.

Ultimate Market Structure [Alpha Extract]Ultimate Market Structure
A comprehensive market structure analysis tool that combines advanced swing point detection, imbalance zone identification, and intelligent break analysis to identify high-probability trading opportunities.Utilizing a sophisticated trend scoring system, this indicator classifies market conditions and provides clear signals for structure breaks, directional changes, and fair value gap detection with institutional-grade precision.
🔶 Advanced Swing Point Detection
Identifies pivot highs and lows using configurable lookback periods with optional close-based analysis for cleaner signals. The system automatically labels swing points as Higher Highs (HH), Lower Highs (LH), Higher Lows (HL), and Lower Lows (LL) while providing advanced classifications including "rising_high", "falling_high", "rising_low", "falling_low", "peak_high", and "valley_low" for nuanced market analysis.
swingHighPrice = useClosesForStructure ? ta.pivothigh(close, swingLength, swingLength) : ta.pivothigh(high, swingLength, swingLength)
swingLowPrice = useClosesForStructure ? ta.pivotlow(close, swingLength, swingLength) : ta.pivotlow(low, swingLength, swingLength)
classification = classifyStructurePoint(structureHighPrice, upperStructure, true)
significance = calculateSignificance(structureHighPrice, upperStructure, true)
🔶 Significance Scoring System
Each structure point receives a significance level on a 1-5 scale based on its distance from previous points, helping prioritize the most important levels. This intelligent scoring system ensures traders focus on the most meaningful structure breaks while filtering out minor noise.
🔶 Comprehensive Trend Analysis
Calculates momentum, strength, direction, and confidence levels using volatility-normalized price changes and multi-timeframe correlation. The system provides real-time trend state tracking with bullish (+1), bearish (-1), or neutral (0) direction assessment and 0-100 confidence scoring.
// Calculate trend momentum using rate of change and volatility
calculateTrendMomentum(lookback) =>
priceChange = (close - close ) / close * 100
avgVolatility = ta.atr(lookback) / close * 100
momentum = priceChange / (avgVolatility + 0.0001)
momentum
// Calculate trend strength using multiple timeframe correlation
calculateTrendStrength(shortPeriod, longPeriod) =>
shortMA = ta.sma(close, shortPeriod)
longMA = ta.sma(close, longPeriod)
separation = math.abs(shortMA - longMA) / longMA * 100
strength = separation * slopeAlignment
❓How It Works
🔶 Imbalance Zone Detection
Identifies Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) between consecutive candles where price gaps create unfilled areas. These zones are displayed as semi-transparent boxes with optional center line mitigation tracking, highlighting potential support and resistance levels where institutional players often react.
// Detect Fair Value Gaps
detectPriceImbalance() =>
currentHigh = high
currentLow = low
refHigh = high
refLow = low
if currentOpen > currentClose
if currentHigh - refLow < 0
upperBound = currentClose - (currentClose - refLow)
lowerBound = currentClose - (currentClose - currentHigh)
centerPoint = (upperBound + lowerBound) / 2
newZone = ImbalanceZone.new(
zoneBox = box.new(bar_index, upperBound, rightEdge, lowerBound,
bgcolor=bullishImbalanceColor, border_color=hiddenColor)
)
🔶 Structure Break Analysis
Determines Break of Structure (BOS) for trend continuation and Directional Change (DC) for trend reversals with advanced classification as "continuation", "reversal", or "neutral". The system compares pre-trend and post-trend states for each break, providing comprehensive trend change momentum analysis.
🔶 Intelligent Zone Management
Features partial mitigation tracking when price enters but doesn't fully fill zones, with automatic zone boundary adjustment during partial fills. Smart array management keeps only recent structure points for optimal performance while preventing duplicate signals from the same level.
🔶 Liquidity Zone Detection
Automatically identifies potential liquidity zones at key structure points for institutional trading analysis. The system tracks broken structure points and provides adaptive zone extension with configurable time-based limits for imbalance areas.
🔶 Visual Structure Mapping
Provides clear visual indicators including swing labels with color-coded significance levels, dashed lines connecting break points with BOS/DC labels, and break signals for continuation and reversal patterns. The adaptive zones feature smart management with automatic mitigation tracking.
🔶 Market Structure Interpretation
HH/HL patterns indicate bullish market structure with trend continuation likelihood, while LH/LL patterns signal bearish structure with downtrend continuation expected. BOS signals represent structure breaks in trend direction for continuation opportunities, while DC signals warn of potential reversals.
🔶 Performance Optimization
Automatic cleanup of old structure points (keeps last 8 points), recent break tracking (keeps last 5 break events), and efficient array management ensure smooth performance across all timeframes and market conditions.
Why Choose Ultimate Market Structure ?
This indicator provides traders with institutional-grade market structure analysis, combining multiple analytical approaches into one comprehensive tool. By identifying key structure levels, imbalance zones, and break patterns with advanced significance scoring, it helps traders understand market dynamics and position themselves for high-probability trade setups in alignment with smart money concepts.

Assaf ATRATR (Average True Range) is a volatility indicator developed by J. Welles Wilder. It measures how much an asset moves (in price), on average, during a specific time period. It does not indicate direction, only the degree of price volatility.
HA + HMA + VWAP🔍 Script Overview
This indicator blends Heikin-Ashi smoothing, Hull Moving Average (HMA), and Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) to help traders identify trend direction and potential trade setups. The script provides buy/sell signals based on price action relative to HMA while anchoring the view to volume with VWAP.
📈 What It Does and How
- Heikin-Ashi Calculations: Reduces noise by averaging candle structure, revealing clearer trend direction.
- Hull Moving Average (HMA): A fast, smooth-moving average applied to Heikin-Ashi close prices, tuned to respond quickly to shifts in momentum.
- VWAP Line: Acts as a dynamic fair-value reference, balancing price against volume over time.
- Signal Logic: Generates visual Buy/Sell signals when the Heikin-Ashi close crosses the HMA.
🧠 Recommended Enhancements Using RSI + ATR
For more refined entries and exits, use this indicator alongside Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Average True Range (ATR):
- RSI for Momentum Confirmation: Ensure the buy signals align with upward momentum—RSI climbing from oversold zones adds conviction.
- ATR for Volatility Awareness: Use ATR to size stops and evaluate risk. Avoid trades during volatility spikes or when ATR exceeds typical thresholds.
- Three-Leg Alignment: When HA/HMA signal agrees with RSI momentum and ATR shows stable conditions, you get high-quality trade setups with better timing and risk control.
This fusion helps discretionary traders filter noise and make confident decisions rooted in price action, volume, momentum, and volatility.
⚙️ Chart Display
- HMA: red line
- VWAP: gray line
- Buy/Sell labels: green below bars for buys, red above bars for sells
- Clean layout optimized for visual clarity

Exchanges Combined Volume📊 Exchanges Combined Volume
(Aggregated Multi-Exchange Volume: Binance, OKX, Bybit, etc.) by BIGTAKER*
🔍 Purpose
The Exchanges Combined Volume indicator aggregates real-time trading volumes from multiple global exchanges for a specific asset (e.g., a cryptocurrency).
Instead of relying on a single market, it provides a broader view of market activity, helping users detect abnormal volume behavior and increased participation across the entire market.
⚙️ Supported Exchanges
* USDT Markets
`Binance`, `OKX`, `Bybit`, `Bitget`, `Gate.io`
* USD Markets
`Coinbase`, `Bitfinex`, `Bitstamp`
* Default
Includes the current chart symbol’s native volume by default.
🧮 Core Calculation Logic
1. 📛 Symbol Normalization (cleanSymbol)
Prefixes such as `1000`, `10000`, `100000`, or `1M` (common in leveraged tickers) are automatically removed to extract the base token.
> Example:
> `1000PEPEUSDT` → `PEPEUSDT`
2. 📈 Volume Requests from External Exchanges
Volume is retrieved using the `` format (e.g., `'BINANCE:PEPEUSDT'`, `'COINBASE:BTCUSD'`).
Invalid or delisted pairs are safely ignored using `ignore_invalid_symbol=true`.
3. 📊 Total Volume Calculation
totalVolume = usdtVolume + usdVolume + currentSymbolVolume
The indicator sums the volume from all target exchanges plus the volume from the current chart symbol.
4. 📏 Comparison to Average Volume
* Period: `length = 60` (Simple Moving Average over 60 candles)
* A candle is considered **high-intensity** if:
5. 🎨 Visual Styling
| Condition | Color | Meaning |
| -------------------------- | --------------------- | ----------------------- |
| High-volume Bullish Candle | Light Green (#30db78) | Strong Buying Activity |
| High-volume Bearish Candle | Bright Red (#ff0000) | Strong Selling Activity |
| Normal Bullish Candle | Dark Green (#3c7058) | Regular Buying Volume |
| Normal Bearish Candle | Dark Red (#682e2c) | Regular Selling Volume |
📌 Use Cases
* Detect synchronized volume surges across major global exchanges.
* Identify pre-pump accumulation phases on altcoins.
* Combine with premium gap indicators (e.g., Kimchi Premium) to identify leading market sentiment.
* Confirm breakout momentum with multi-exchange volume validation.
📘 Notes & Warnings
* Listing differences across exchanges may result in **zero volume** on some platforms.
* Prefixes like `1000`, `1M`, etc., are automatically removed to **improve symbol matching accuracy**.
* As volume units are not standardized, this indicator is best suited for **absolute value analysis**, not ratio-based comparisons.
Price Volume Trend [sgbpulse]1. Introduction: What is Price Volume Trend (PVT)?
The Price Volume Trend (PVT) indicator is a powerful technical analysis tool designed to measure buying and selling pressure in the market based on price changes relative to trading volume. Unlike other indicators that focus solely on volume or price, PVT combines both components to provide a more comprehensive picture of trend strength.
How is it Calculated?
The PVT is calculated by adding or subtracting a proportional part of the daily volume from a cumulative total.
When the closing price rises, a proportional part of the daily volume (based on the percentage price change) is added to the previous PVT value.
When the closing price falls, a proportional part of the daily volume is subtracted from the previous PVT value.
If there is no change in price, the PVT value remains unchanged.
The result of this calculation is a cumulative line that rises when buying pressure is strong and falls when selling pressure dominates.
2. Why PVT? Comparison to Similar Indicators
While other indicators measure volume-price pressure, PVT offers a unique advantage:
PVT vs. On-Balance Volume (OBV):
OBV simply adds or subtracts the entire day's volume based on the closing direction (up/down), regardless of the magnitude of the price change. This means a 0.1% price change is treated the same as a 10% change.
PVT, on the other hand, gives proportional weight to volume based on the percentage price change. A trading day with a large price increase and high volume will impact the PVT significantly more than a small price increase with the same volume. This makes PVT more sensitive to trend strength and changes within it.
PVT vs. Accumulation/Distribution Line (A/D Line):
The A/D Line focuses on the relationship between the closing price and the bar's trading range (Close Location Value) and multiplies it by volume. It indicates whether the pressure is buying or selling within a single bar.
PVT focuses on the change between closing prices of consecutive bars, multiplying this by volume. It better reflects the flow of money into or out of an asset over time.
By combining volume with percentage price change, PVT provides deeper insights into trend confirmation, identifying divergences between price and volume, and spotting signs of weakness or strength in the current trend.
3. Indicator Settings (Inputs)
The "Price Volume Trend " indicator offers great flexibility for customization to your specific needs through the following settings:
Moving Average Type: Allows you to select the type of moving average used for the central line on the PVT. Your choice here will affect the line's responsiveness to PVT movements.
- "None" : No moving average will be displayed on the PVT.
- "SMA" (Simple Moving Average): A simple average, smoother, ideal for identifying longer-term trends in PVT.
- "SMA + Bollinger Bands": This unique option not only displays a Simple Moving Average but also activates the Bollinger Bands around the PVT. This is the recommended option for analyzing volatility and ranges using Bollinger Bands.
- "EMA" (Exponential Moving Average): An exponential average, giving more weight to recent data, responding faster to changes in PVT.
- "SMMA (RMA)" (Smoothed Moving Average): A smoothed average, providing extra smoothing, less sensitive to noise.
- "WMA" (Weighted Moving Average): A weighted average, giving progressively more weight to recent data, responding very quickly to changes in PVT.
Moving Average Length: Defines the number of bars used to calculate the moving average (and, if applicable, the standard deviation for the Bollinger Bands). A lower value will make the line more responsive, while a higher value will smooth it out.
PVT BB StdDev (Bollinger Bands Standard Deviation): Determines the width of the Bollinger Bands. A higher value will result in wider bands, making it less likely for the PVT to cross them. The standard value is 2.0.
4. Visual Aid: Current PVT Level Line
This indicator includes a unique and highly useful visual feature: a dynamic horizontal line displayed on the PVT graph.
Purpose: This line marks the exact level of the PVT on the most recent trading bar. It extends across the entire chart, allowing for a quick and intuitive comparison of the current level to past levels.
Why is it Important?
- Identifying Divergences: Often, an asset's price may be lower or higher than past levels, but the PVT level might be different. This auxiliary line makes it easy to spot situations where PVT is at a higher level when the price is lower, or vice-versa, which can signal potential trend changes (e.g., higher PVT than in the past while price is low could indicate strong accumulation).
- Quick Direction Indication: The line's color changes dynamically: it will be green if the PVT value on the last bar has increased (or remained the same) relative to the previous bar (indicating positive buying pressure), and red if the PVT value has decreased relative to the previous bar (indicating selling pressure). This provides an immediate visual cue about the direction of the cumulative momentum.

SMCX Morning Signal (v6) - Previous Day Confirmed (non-repaint)Paints (no repaint) either a buy or not buy signal for every day based on 3 conditions that pretty accurately predict a green candle day, and it's been tested accurate on just about anything. The 3 conditions are price above 4 hour vwap, price above 8 hour vwap, and 4 hour rvol > 1. We can change the title but I labeled it SMCX morning signal because I was originally trying to shark big moves for SMCX, but then when I got the indicator to work, I saw how rare a green signal was, which I suppose it should be, I needed to backtest it across a wide range of stocks and ETFs. The results were incredible (have stats in a spreadsheet that ranks which leveraged ETFs I should check a signal for by day of the week). Would be great to have this officially published. We could call it VWAP and RVOL market structure confirmation signal.
Price over VolumeVersion 0.1
Price over Volume Indicator
Description
The Price over Volume indicator calculates the ratio of the closing price to the trading volume (price / volume) for the current chart's symbol and displays it as a histogram in a separate pane. A horizontal zero line is included as a reference to highlight positive and negative values or periods of undefined data (e.g., zero volume). The indicator is designed to help traders analyze the relationship between price movements and trading volume.
Insights Provided
Price-Volume Dynamics: The indicator shows how price per unit of volume fluctuates, offering insights into market efficiency and liquidity. High ratios may indicate low volume relative to price, suggesting potential volatility or thin markets, while low ratios may reflect high volume supporting price stability.
Trend and Momentum Analysis: Spikes or trends in the price-to-volume ratio can signal significant market events, such as buying/selling pressure or low liquidity periods, helping traders identify potential reversals or continuations.
Zero Line Reference: The zero line helps identify periods where the ratio is undefined (e.g., zero volume) or negative (if applicable), aiding in the interpretation of market conditions.
Volume Sensitivity: By normalizing price by volume, the indicator highlights how volume influences price movements, which is useful for assessing the strength of trends or breakouts.
How to Use
Setup: Apply the indicator to any chart with price and volume data (e.g., stocks, cryptocurrencies like BINANCE:BTCUSDT). The histogram appears in a separate pane below the main chart.
Interpretation :
High Ratios: Indicate low trading volume relative to price, potentially signaling overbought conditions or low liquidity. Use with caution in thin markets.
Low Ratios: Suggest high volume supporting price levels, indicating stronger market participation or stability.
Spikes: Watch for sudden increases in the ratio, which may precede volatility or significant price moves.
Zero Line: Periods where the histogram is absent (due to zero volume) indicate no trading activity, useful for identifying illiquid periods.
Trading Applications:
Confirmation Tool: Combine with other indicators (e.g., RSI, MACD) to confirm trend strength. A rising price-to-volume ratio with a price uptrend may indicate weakening volume support, suggesting a potential reversal.
Volume Analysis: Use alongside volume-based indicators (e.g., OBV, VWAP) to assess whether price movements are backed by sufficient volume.
Scalping/Day Trading: Monitor intraday ratio changes to identify high-impact periods with low volume, which may offer short-term trading opportunities.
Customization: Adjust the histogram color or style (e.g., change to line plot) via the Pine Editor to suit your preferences. Consider adding smoothing (e.g., moving average) for cleaner signals.
Notes
Data Requirements: Ensure the chart’s symbol has valid volume data. Symbols with no volume (e.g., some forex pairs) will result in undefined (na) values.
Limitations: The indicator is sensitive to zero-volume periods, which may cause gaps in the histogram. Use on high-liquidity symbols for best results.
Performance: Lightweight and efficient, suitable for all timeframes.
This indicator is ideal for traders seeking to understand the interplay between price and volume, offering a unique perspective on market dynamics for informed trading decisions.
TZanalyserTZanalyser (Trend Zone Monitor With Trend Strength, Volume Focus And -Events Markers)
Before I used TrendZones to manage my portfolio I used Fibonacci Zone Oscillator as my favorite in the sub panel, accompanied with another subpanel indicator which I never published called IncliValue and also REVE Cohorts.
TZanalyser inherits Ideas and code from all three of them: The visual and the idea of using a channel as the basis for an oscillator depicted as a histogram, is taken from the FibZone Oscillator. The idea of providing a number to evaluate the trend is taken from IncliValue. The idea to create a horizontal line which indicates high and low volume focus completed with markers for volume events, is taken from REVE-cohorts.
These ideas are combined in one sleek visual called TZanalyser. TZ stand for TrendZones, because the histogram is based on it.
The histogram.
Depicted is the distance of the price from COG as percent. The distance between Upper Curve and Lower Curve is used as 100%. The values may reach between 300 and -300. The colors indicate in which zone the candle lives, blue in the blue zone, green in the green zone etc. Despite the absence of a gray zone, there are gray bars. These depict candles that wrap around COG. Because hl2 is used as price, some gray bars point up and others down. The orange and red bars point down because the orange and red downtrend zones are below COG.
Use of the histogram.
Sometimes I need to create a list of stocks which are in uptrend in monthly, weekly and daily charts from the stocks I follow in my universe. This job is done fast and easy by looking at the last bar of the histogram. The histogram also gives a quick evaluation of how the stock fared in the past.
The number.
Suppose I need to allocate some money to another stock, selected a few, looked into news and gurus and they look equally good. Then it is nice to be able to find out which has the best charts. Which one has the strongest uptrend. For this purpose this number can be consulted, because it indicates somehow the strength of the trend. It is an integer between 20 and -20, the closer to 20 the stronger the uptrend, closer to -20 indicates a stronger downtrend. The color of the background is the same as the last column of the histogram.
Volume focus and events
The horizontal lines depict volume focus, the line below the focus that comes with the uptrend columns pointing up, the one above the focus for the downtrend columns pointing down. Thes line have tree colors: maroon for high volume focus, green for normal volume and gray for low volume situations. Between the lines and the histogram triangles appear at volume events, a green triangle when the candle comes with high volume, i.e. 120-200 percent of normal, maroon when extreme volume, i.e. more than 200 percent of normal.
The direction of these triangles is that of the histogram, i.e. when the price is higher, direction is up and vice versa.
Take care and have fun.
Z-Score Multi-Model ClusteringA price/volume clustering framework combining three market behavior models into a single indicator. Designed to help identify emerging trend strength, turning points, and volatility-driven entries or exits.
🔍 How It Works
This indicator classifies market states by comparing normalized price/volume behavior (via Z-Score) to different types of statistical or geometric "cluster centers." You can choose from three clustering approaches:
🧠 Clustering Models
1. Percentile (Z+CVD) – Trend Momentum Bias
Uses volume Z-Score + Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD).
Detects institutional pressure by clustering volume surges with directional delta.
Best for: Breakouts, momentum trades, volume-led reversals.
Cluster Colors:
🔹 Green triangle = Strong bullish confluence
🔻 Red triangle = Bearish divergence (bull trap risk)
⚪ Gray = Neutral/low conviction
2. Euclidean (Z+Slope) – Swing Mean-Reversion
Measures the angle of recent Z-score slope and compares it to directional cluster centers.
Helps detect early directional shifts or exhaustion.
Best for: Swing entries, pullback setups, exit timing
3. Hilbert Phase – Turn Detection via Signal Phase
Applies Hilbert Transform to the Z-Score, measuring the phase difference between trend and oscillator components.
Ideal for anticipating turns or detecting cyclical inflection points.
Useful for: Scalping, top/bottom spotting, volatility fades
✅ Features
Auto-updating cluster logic based on current data
Tooltips and clean user interface
Optional cluster bar coloring (can be toggled off)
Signal-only plotting keeps candlesticks readable
Clear entry/exit logic with triangle markers
Supports trend, swing, and oscillation-based systems
🛠️ Suggested Use Cases
Combine with VWAP, Session High/Low, or Liquidity Zones to confirm entry conditions.
Use Cluster 2 (strong bullish) on pullbacks to trend structure for add-on entries.
Use Cluster 1 in strong trends to watch for potential traps or exits.
Toggle models based on your strategy: e.g., Hilbert for scalping, Percentile for macro trend breaks.
🧪 Best Timeframes
Works across all markets and timeframes
For Percentile (Z+CVD), use intraday TF with 1m–5m CVD source
Hilbert and Euclidean preferred on 5m–1h for accurate slope/phase signals
⚠️ Notes
Clusters do not generate trade signals alone; use them in context with structure, VWAP, or trend filters.
Marker signals are filtered with a magnitude threshold to reduce noise.

Multi Ranges Volume Distribution [LuxAlgo]The Multi Ranges Volume Distribution tool allows traders to see the volume distribution by price for three different timeframes simultaneously. Each distribution can report the total amount of accumulated volume or the accumulated buy/sell volume separately.
Levels are displayed at the top and bottom of each timeframe's range, as well as the POC or level with the most volume.
🔶 USAGE
By default, the tool displays daily, weekly, and monthly volume distributions, highlighting the accumulated volume within each row.
Each distribution shows the volume at each price, as well as three lines: the top and bottom prices, and the price at which the most volume was traded.
The reported accumulated volume can be useful for highlighting which price areas are of the most interest to traders, with the specific timeframe specifying whether this interest is long-term or short-term.
🔹 Timeframes & Rows
Traders can adjust the timeframe and the number of rows for each volume distribution.
This is useful for multi-timeframe analysis of volume at the same price levels, or for obtaining detailed data within the same timeframe.
The chart above shows three volume distributions with the same monthly timeframe but a different number of rows; each is more detailed than the previous one.
🔹 Total vs Buy & Sell Volume
Traders can choose to display either the total volume or the buy and sell volumes.
As we can see on the above chart, the background of each row uses a gradient that is a function of the delta between the buy and sell volumes.
This is useful to determine which areas attract buyers and sellers.

80% Rule BacktestStrategy Overview: 80% Rule Backtest Tool
This strategy tester is designed to validate the classic 80% Rule setup within a defined ETH futures session. Signals are triggered when price reenters the prior day's value area and holds for a qualified duration — targeting the Point of Control (POC) for primary exits, while tracking full value area traversals for research purposes.
- 📅 Session Logic: Anchored to a true 22-hour ETH futures window (5PM–3PM Pacific), with global time zone support
- 🧠 Signal Confirmation: Price must reenter and hold inside value area for ≥ 45 minutes to validate entry
Note: Optimized for 15-minute charts — aligns exactly with traditional rule definition (3-bar hold)
- 🎯 Targets: Primary TP at POC; visual logs for full VAH/VAL reach
- 🔍 Manual Override Mode: Precise SVP-level control when auto logic isn’t preferred
- 🔧 Debug Mode: Single-bar diagnostic labels for development and forward testing
This tool supports both auto-calculated and manually anchored value areas, allowing traders to blend systematic backtesting with discretionary insight.
