Advanced Volume Profile Levels (Working)This indicator is a powerful tool for traders who use volume profile analysis to identify significant price levels. It automatically calculates and plots the three most critical levels derived from volume data—the Point of Control (POC), Value Area High (VAH), and Value Area Low (VAL)—for three different timeframes simultaneously: the previous week, the previous day, and the current, live session.
The primary focus of this indicator is unmatched readability. It features dynamic, floating labels that stay clear of price action, combined with a high-contrast design to ensure you can see these crucial levels at a glance without any visual clutter.
Key Features
Multi-Session Analysis: Gain a complete market perspective by viewing levels from different timeframes on a single chart.
Weekly Levels: Identify the long-term areas of value and control from the prior week's trading activity.
Daily Levels: Pinpoint the most significant levels from the previous day's Regular Trading Hours (9:30 AM - 4:00 PM ET).
Current Session Levels: Track the developing value area and POC in real-time with a dynamic profile that updates with every bar.
Advanced Visuals for Clarity:
Floating Labels: The labels for the weekly and daily levels intelligently "float" on the right side of your chart, moving with the price to ensure they are never obscured by candles.
High-Contrast Design: Labels are designed for maximum readability with solid, opaque backgrounds and an automatic text color (black or white) that provides the best contrast against your chosen level color.
Trailing Current Levels: The labels for the current session neatly trail the most recent price action, providing an intuitive view of intra-day developments.
Comprehensive Customization: Tailor the indicator's appearance to your exact preferences.
Toggle each profile (Weekly, Daily, Current) on or off.
Individually set the color, line style (solid, dashed, dotted), and line width for each set of levels.
Adjust the text size, background transparency, and horizontal offset for all on-chart labels.
Information Hub:
On-Chart Price Labels: Each label clearly displays both the level name and its precise price (e.g., "D-POC: 22068.50").
Corner Table: An optional, clean table in the top-right corner provides a quick summary of all active weekly and daily level values.
Built-in Alerts:
Create alerts directly from the script to be notified whenever the price crosses above or below the weekly or daily Point of Control, helping you stay on top of key market movements.
How to Use
The levels provided by this indicator serve as powerful reference points for market activity:
Point of Control (POC): The price level with the highest traded volume. It acts as a magnet for price and represents the area of "fair value" for that session. Markets often test or revert to the POC.
Value Area High (VAH) & Value Area Low (VAL): These levels define the range where approximately 70% of the session's volume occurred. They are critical support and resistance zones.
Price acceptance above the VAH may signal a bullish breakout.
Price acceptance below the VAL may signal a bearish breakdown.
Rejection at the VAH or VAL often leads to price moving back across the value area towards the POC.

nPOC Levels by Tyler### Explanation of the Pine Script
This Pine Script identifies and displays weekly naked Points of Control (nPOCs) on a TradingView chart. An nPOC represents a Point of Control (POC) from a previous week that has not been revisited by price action in subsequent weeks. These nPOCs are extended to the right as horizontal lines, indicating potential support or resistance levels.
#### Script Overview
1. **Indicator Declaration:**
```pinescript
//@version=5
indicator("Weekly nPOCs", overlay=true)
```
- The script is defined as a version 5 Pine Script.
- The `indicator` function sets the script's name ("Weekly nPOCs") and specifies that the indicator should be overlaid on the price chart (`overlay=true`).
2. **Function to Calculate POC:**
```pinescript
f_poc(_hl2, _vol) =>
var float vol_profile = na
if (na(vol_profile))
vol_profile := array.new_float(100, 0.0)
_bin_size = (high - low) / 100
for i = 0 to 99
if _hl2 >= low + i * _bin_size and _hl2 < low + (i + 1) * _bin_size
array.set(vol_profile, i, array.get(vol_profile, i) + _vol)
max_volume = array.max(vol_profile)
poc_index = array.indexof(vol_profile, max_volume)
poc_price = low + poc_index * _bin_size + _bin_size / 2
poc_price
```
- The function `f_poc` calculates the Point of Control (POC) for a given period.
- It takes two parameters: `_hl2` (the average of the high and low prices) and `_vol` (volume).
- A volume profile array (`vol_profile`) is initialized to store volume data across different price bins.
- The price range between the high and low is divided into 100 bins (`_bin_size`).
- The function iterates over each bin, accumulating the volumes for prices within each bin.
- The bin with the maximum volume is identified as the POC (`poc_price`).
3. **Variables to Store Weekly Data:**
```pinescript
var float poc = na
var float prev_poc = na
var line poc_lines = na
if na(poc_lines)
poc_lines := array.new_line(0)
```
- `poc` stores the current week's POC.
- `prev_poc` stores the previous week's POC.
- `poc_lines` is an array to store lines representing nPOCs. The array is initialized if it is `na` (not initialized).
4. **Calculate Weekly POC:**
```pinescript
is_new_week = ta.change(time('W')) != 0
if (is_new_week)
prev_poc := poc
poc := f_poc(hl2, volume)
if not na(prev_poc)
line new_poc_line = line.new(x1=bar_index, y1=prev_poc, x2=bar_index + 100, y2=prev_poc, color=color.red, width=2)
label.new(x=bar_index, y=prev_poc, text="nPOC", style=label.style_label_down, color=color.red, textcolor=color.white)
array.push(poc_lines, new_poc_line)
```
- `is_new_week` checks if the current bar is the start of a new week using the `ta.change(time('W'))` function.
- If it's a new week, the previous week's POC is stored in `prev_poc`, and the current week's POC is calculated using `f_poc`.
- If `prev_poc` is not `na`, a new line (`new_poc_line`) representing the nPOC is created, extending it to the right (for 100 bars).
- A label is created at the `prev_poc` level, marking it as "nPOC".
- The new line is added to the `poc_lines` array.
5. **Remove Old Lines:**
```pinescript
if array.size(poc_lines) > 52
line.delete(array.shift(poc_lines))
```
- This section ensures that only the last 52 weeks of nPOCs are kept to avoid cluttering the chart.
- If the `poc_lines` array contains more than 52 lines, the oldest line is deleted using `array.shift`.
6. **Plot the Current Week's POC as a Reference:**
```pinescript
plot(poc, title="Current Weekly POC", color=color.blue, linewidth=2, style=plot.style_line)
```
- The current week's POC is plotted as a blue line on the chart for reference.
#### Summary
This script calculates and identifies weekly Points of Control (POCs) and marks them as nPOCs if they remain untouched by subsequent price action. These nPOCs are displayed as horizontal lines extending to the right, providing traders with potential support or resistance levels. The script also manages the number of lines plotted to maintain a clear and uncluttered chart.
Weighted Volume Profile Pivot Points | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing our new Weighted Volume Profile Pivot Points (WVPPP) Indicator! This indicator renders a volume profile using the latest pivot points, automatically adjusting itself when new pivots occur. The pivoting mode can be switched between default pivot points and order blocks mode. It can be adjusted to give more weight to recent or past candlesticks, or can be used as a normal volume profile. For more information, please read the full write-up.
Features of the new Weighted Volume Profile Pivot Points (WVPPP) Indicator :
Renders Volume Profile Of The Range Between Latest Pivots
Two Pivoting Modes Including Order Blocks Mode
Adjustable Weighthing Towards Past or Recent
Customizable Row Count & Maximum Distance
Left or Right Alignment
More Styling Options
🚩UNIQUENESS
This indicator stands out with two key features. One is it's ability to weight volumes based on their distance to the current time. Giving weight to volumes may offer new trading opportunities to traders as they can now see the most recent Point Of Control (POC) or a more powerful but past POC based on their choice. Another key feature the indicator has is that it automatically finds latest valid pivot points, and uses that range for the volume profile. The range changes dynamically as new pivots points emerge. You can select between normal pivot points and order blocks mode. The indicator also has a variety of useful styling settings such as aligning the volume profile to the right or the left of the chart, POC Line styling and color settings for bullish & bearish volumes.
📌 HOW DOES IT WORK ?
A volume profile provides an in-depth look at trading activity over a period of time by plotting a histogram on the price axis. This indicator can also give weight to volumes based on their distance to the current time, essentially determining their importance for the profile. The range which the volume profile will cover is determined by the latest pivot points. Here is how it works step-by-step :
1. Determine how much candlesticks the volume profile will cover (Analyze Bars setting)
2. Find the latest pivot points. If the mode is set to "Pivots", the pivot points are the candlesticks which has the highest / lowest wick in X amount of bars (Swing Length setting). If the mode is set to "Order Blocks", the volume profile range is the area between the latest buyside order block and the sellside order block. Order blocks occur when there is a high amount of market orders exist on a price range. It is possible to find order blocks using specific candlestick formations on the chart. For more information about the order block detection, I suggest you checking the write-up of our "Volumized Order Blocks" script. Increasing the "Swing Length" setting is recommended when the mode is set to "Pivots", as this will help in finding stronger pivot points.
3. Make a range using the latest pivot points, then divide it into rows (Row Count setting)
4. Then for each candlestick, add it's volume to the corresponding row in the range. Note that the volume can be added into several rows if it overlaps with them all.
5. If the candlestick is a bullish candlestick, we add it's volume into the bullish volume of the row, if it's a bearish candlestick, we add it to the bearish volume of the row.
With the weighted volume mode, which is activated if "Volume Weighthing" setting is set to "Recent" or "Past", all volumes get a penalty based on their distance to the latest candletstick. For example, if the setting is set to "Recent", the latest candlestick contributes it's volume by 100% to the corresponding row, but the candlestick which is 50 candlesticks far from the current candlestick only contributes it's volume by ~17% to the row. The same applies to the "Past" setting, but in the reversed order, where past candlesticks have more priority than the current ones.
Volume contribution percent for "Recent" setting : ((100 * 0.85) / (i + 1)) + (100 * (1.0 - 0.85))
Volume contribution percent for "Past" setting : ((100 * 0.85) * ((i + 1) / N)) + (100 * (1.0 - 0.85))
Where i = candlestick index from right to left, N = total number of candlesticks analyzed by the volume profile.
The Point Of Control (POC) line is drawn from the row with the most total volume, and is generally considered as a strong level because a lot of trading volume happened on that particular row. Traders may use this line as a support & resistance level.
We believe that automatically ranging the volume profile to important pivot points will help traders see crucial volume information easier without unnecessary hassle. Traders can use this indicator to have an insight of areas which price moves quickly without much volume, or see areas that holds the price still for much longer and plan their trades accordingly.

ATR Price Targets w/POC
ATR Price Targets with Point of Control (POC):
This script is designed to help traders identify key price target levels based on configurable multipliers of the the Average True Range (ATR) and the volume based Point of Control (POC). It is intended for intraday traders looking to capture significant price movements.
Features:
ATR Price Targets: The script calculates three levels of price targets above and below the first bar of the day, based on the ATR of the last 22 days (assuming 5-minute candles). These targets are adjustable through the settings, allowing traders to set their own ATR multipliers.
Point of Control (POC): The POC is determined as the price level of the highest volume bar since the start time, providing an indication of the most traded price within the specified period.
Customizable Start Time: Traders can set their desired start time for the calculation of price targets and POC, allowing for flexibility in aligning the indicator with their trading strategy.
Plot Lines: The ATR price targets are plotted as lines for easy visualization on the chart.
Usage:
The ATR price targets can be used as potential take-profit or stop-loss levels.
The POC can serve as a key level for assessing market sentiment and potential reversals.
Traders can adjust the ATR multipliers and start time based on their specific trading style and market conditions.
Settings:
ATR Price Targets 1, 2, 3: Adjust the multipliers for the ATR price targets. By default, these are set to 1*ATR for T1+/T1-, 3*ATR for T2+/T2- and ATR*6 for T3+/T3-. Adjust with caution as the price targets found in defaults have proven to be more accurate over intraday cycles for volatile stocks.
Start Hour & Start Minute: Set the starting hour and minute for the calculations. By default, these are set to the opening 5 minute intraday bar, but can also be set to the opening bar of pre-market hours.

The CCV check can be ticked on and off for a quick visual to see if the setup could potentially be in play (if green then CCV could be play for that day).
Settings/Configuration
The calculated Value Area (VA) can be amended.
It is recommend to change the resolution to that of your symbol. For example BTC resolution 1, XRP resolution 0.00001.

WARNING:
- Compilation Time: 1 min 20 sec
Usage:
- specify max_level/min_level/spacing (required)
- select range (start_bar, range length), confirm with range highlighting
- select volume type: Buy/Sell/Total
- select mode Value Area/VWAP to show corresponding levels
- flip/select anchor point to position the buy/sell levels
- use Horiz Buy/Sell SLI mode with 100 or Vertical SLI with 300 levels if needed
- use POC/Developing POC/VA/VWAP High/Low as S/R levels. Usually daily values from 1-3 days back are used as levels for the current day.
SLI:
use SLI modes to extend the functionality of the indicator:
- Horiz Buy/Sell 2x SLI lets you view 100 Buy/Sell Levels at the same time
- Vertical Max_Vol 3x SLI lets you increase the resolution to 300 levels
- you need at least 2 instances of the indicator attached to the same chart for SLI to work
1) Enable Horiz SLI:
- attach 2 indicator instances to the chart
- make sure all instances have the same min_level/max_level/range/spacing settings
- select volume type for each instance: you can have a buy/sell or buy/total or sell/total SLI. Make sure your buy volume instance is the last attached to be displayed on top of sell/total instances without overlapping.
- set buy_sell_sli_mode to true for indicator instances with volume_type = buy/sell, for type total this is optional.
- this basically tells the script to calculate % lengths based on total volume instead of individual buy/sell volumes and use ext offset for sell levels
- Sell Offset is calculated relative to Buy Offset to stack/extend sell after buy. Buy Offset = Zero - Buy Length. Sell Offset = Buy Offset - Sell Length = Zero - Buy Length - Sell Length
- there are no master/slave instances in this mode, all indicators are equal, poc/va levels are not affected and can work independently, i.e. one instance can show va levels, another - vwap.
2) Enable Vertical SLI:
- attach the first instance and evaluate the full range to roughly determine where is the highest max_vol/poc level i.e. 0..20000, poc is in the bottom half (third, middle etc) or
- add more instances and split the full vertical range between them, i.e. set min_level/max_level of each corresponding instance to 0..10000, 10000..20000 etc
- make sure all instances have the same range/spacing settings
- an instance with a subrange containing the poc level of the full range is now your master instance (bottom half). All other instances are slaves, their levels will be calculated based on the max_vol/poc of the master instance instead of local values
- set show_max_vol_sli to true for the master instance. for slave instances this is optional and can be used to check if master/slave max_vol values match and slave can read the master's value. This simply plots the max_vol value
- you can also attach all instances and set show_max_vol_sli to true in all of them - the instance with the largest max_vol should become the master
Auto/Manual Ext Max_Vol Modes:
- for auto vertical max_vol SLI mode set max_vol_sli_src in all slave instances to the max_vol of the master indicator: "VolumeProfileFree_MAX_RRB: Max Volume for Vertical SLI Mode". It can be tricky with 2+ instances
- in case auto SLI mode doesn't work - assign max_vol_sli_ext in all slave instances the max_vol value of the master indicator manually and repeat on each change
- manual override max_vol_sli_ext has higher priority than auto max_vol_sli_src when both values are assigned, when they are 0 and close respectively - SLI is disabled
- master/slave max_vol values must match on each bar at all times to maintain proper level scale, otherwise slave's levels will look larger than they should relative to the master's levels.
- Max_vol (red) is the last param in the long list of indicator outputs
- the only true max_vol/poc in this SLI mode is the master's max_vol/poc. All poc/va levels in slaves will be irrelevant and are disabled automatically. Slaves can only show VWAP levels.
- VA Levels of the master instance in this SLI mode are calculated based on the subrange, not the whole range and may be inaccurate. Cross check with the full range.
WARNING!
- auto mode max_vol_sli_src is experimental and may not work as expected
- you can only assign auto mode max_vol_sli_src = max_vol once due to some bug with unhandled exception/buffer overflow in Tradingview. Seems that you can clear the value only by removing the indicator instance
- sometimes you may see a "study in error state" error when attempting to set it back to close. Remove indicator/Reload chart and start from scratch
- volume profile may not finish to redraw and freeze in an ugly shape after an UI parameter change when max_vol_sli_src is assigned a max_vol value. Assign it to close - VP should redraw properly, but it may not clear the assigned max_vol value
- you can't seem to be able to assign a proper auto max_vol value to the 3rd slave instance
- 2x Vertical SLI works and tested in both auto/manual, 3x SLI - only manual seems to work (you can have a mixed mode: 2nd instance - auto, 3rd - manual)
Notes:
- This code uses Pinescript v3 compatibility framework
- This code is 20x-30x faster (main for cycle is removed) especially on lower tfs with long history - only 4-5 sec load/redraw time vs 30-60 sec of the old Pro versions
- Instead of repeatedly calculating the total sum of volumes for the whole range on each bar, vol sums are now increased on each bar and passed to the next in the range making it a per range vs per bar calculation that reduces time dramatically
- 100 levels consist of 50 main plot levels and 50 line objects used as alternate levels, differences are:
- line objects are always shown on top of other objects, such as plot levels, zero line and side cover, it's not possible to cover/move them below.
- all line objects have variable lengths, use actual x,y coords and don't need side cover, while all plot levels have a fixed length of 100 bars, use offset and require cover.
- all key properties of line objects, such as x,y coords, color can be modified, objects can be moved/deleted, while this is not possible for static plot levels.
- large width values cause line objects to expand only up/down from center while their length remains the same and stays within the level's start/end points similar to an area style.
- large width values make plot levels expand in all directions (both h/v), beyond level start/end points, sometimes overlapping zero line, making them an inaccurate % length representation, as opposed to line objects/plot levels with area style.
- large width values translate into different widths on screen for line objects and plot levels.
- you can't compensate for this unwanted horiz width expansion of plot levels because width uses its own units, that don't translate into bars/pixels.
- line objects are visible only when num_levels > 50, plot levels are used otherwise
- Since line objects are lines, plot levels also use style line because other style implementations will break the symmetry/spacing between levels.
- if you don't see a volume profile check range settings: min_level/max_level and spacing, set spacing to 0 (or adjust accordingly based on the symbol's precision, i.e. 0.00001)
- you can view either of Buy/Sell/Total volumes, but you can't display Buy/Sell levels at the same time using a single instance (this would 2x reduce the number of levels). Use 2 indicator instances in horiz buy/sell sli mode for that.
- Volume Profile/Value Area are calculated for a given range and updated on each bar. Each level has a fixed length. Offsets control visible level parts. Side Cover hides the invisible parts.
- Custom Color for POC/VA/VWAP levels - UI Style color/transparency can only change shape's color and doesn't affect textcolor, hence this additional option
- Custom Width - UI Style supports only width <= 4, hence this additional option
- POC is visible in both modes. In VWAP mode Developing POC becomes VWAP, VA High and Low => VWAP High and Low correspondingly to minimize the number of plot outputs
- You can't change buy/sell level colors from input (only transparency) - this requires 2x plot outputs => 2x reduces the number of levels to fit the max 64 limit. That's why 2 additional plots are used to dim the non Value Area zones
- You can change level transparency of line objects. Due to Pinescript limitations, only discrete values are supported.
- Inverse transp correlation creates the necessary illusion of "covered" line objects, although they are shown on top of the cover all the time
- If custom lines_transp is set the illusion will break because transp range can't be skewed easily (i.e. transp 0..100 is always mapped to 100..0 and can't be mapped to 50..0)
- transparency can applied to lines dynamically but nva top zone can't be completely removed because plot/mixed type of levels are still used when num_levels < 50 and require cover
- transparency can't be applied to plot levels dynamically from script this can be done only once from UI, and you can't change plot color for the past length bars
- All buy/sell volume lengths are calculated as % of a fixed base width = 100 bars (100%). You can't set show_last from input to change it
- Range selection/Anchoring is not accurate on charts with time gaps since you can only anchor from a point in the future and measure distance in time periods, not actual bars, and there's no way of knowing the number of future gaps in advance.
- Adjust Width for Log Scale mode now also works on high precision charts with small prices (i.e. 0.00001)
- in Adjust Width for Log Scale mode Level1 width extremes can be capped using max deviation (when level1 = 0, shift = 0 width becomes infinite)
- There's no such thing as buy/sell volume, there's just volume, but for the purposes of the Volume Profile method, assume: bull candle = buy volume, bear candle = sell volume

Composite Time ProfileComposite Time Profile Overlay (CTPO) - Market Profile Compositing Tool
Automatically composite multiple time periods to identify key areas of balance and market structure
What is the Composite Time Profile Overlay?
The Composite Time Profile Overlay (CTPO) is a Pine Script indicator that automatically composites multiple time periods to identify key areas of balance and market structure. It's designed for traders who use market profile concepts and need to quickly identify where price is likely to find support or resistance.
The indicator analyzes TPO (Time Price Opportunity) data across different timeframes and merges overlapping profiles to create composite levels that represent the most significant areas of balance. This helps you spot where institutional traders are likely to make decisions based on accumulated price action.
Why Use CTPO for Market Profile Trading?
Eliminate Manual Compositing Work
Instead of manually drawing and compositing profiles across different timeframes, CTPO does this automatically. You get instant access to composite levels without spending time analyzing each individual period.
Spot Areas of Balance Quickly
The indicator highlights the most significant areas of balance by compositing overlapping profiles. These areas often act as support and resistance levels because they represent where the most trading activity occurred across multiple time periods.
Focus on What Matters
Rather than getting lost in individual session profiles, CTPO shows you the composite levels that have been validated across multiple timeframes. This helps you focus on the levels that are most likely to hold.
How CTPO Works for Market Profile Traders
Automatic Profile Compositing
CTPO uses a proprietary algorithm that:
- Identifies period boundaries based on your selected timeframe (sessions, daily, weekly, monthly, or auto-detection)
- Calculates TPO profiles for each period using the C2M (Composite 2 Method) row sizing calculation
- Merges overlapping profiles using configurable overlap thresholds (default 50% overlap required)
- Updates composite levels as new price action develops in real-time
Key Levels for Market Profile Analysis
The indicator displays:
- Value Area High (VAH) and Value Area Low (VAL) levels calculated from composite TPO data
- Point of Control (POC) levels where most trading occurred across all composited periods
- Composite zones representing areas of balance with configurable transparency
- 1.618 Fibonacci extensions for breakout targets based on composite range
Multiple Timeframe Support
- Sessions: For intraday market profile analysis
- Daily: For swing trading with daily profiles
- Weekly: For position trading with weekly structure
- Monthly: For long-term market profile analysis
- Auto: Automatically selects timeframe based on your chart
Trading Applications for Market Profile Users
Support and Resistance Trading
Use composite levels as dynamic support and resistance zones. These levels often hold because they represent areas where significant trading decisions were made across multiple timeframes.
Breakout Trading
When composite levels break, they often lead to significant moves. The indicator calculates 1.618 Fibonacci extensions to give you clear targets for breakout trades.
Mean Reversion Strategies
Value Area levels represent the price range where most trading activity occurred. These levels often act as magnets, drawing price back when it moves too far from the mean.
Institutional Level Analysis
Composite levels represent areas where institutional traders have made significant decisions. These levels often hold more weight than traditional technical analysis levels because they're based on actual trading activity.
Key Features for Market Profile Traders
Smart Compositing Logic
- Automatic overlap detection using price range intersection algorithms
- Configurable overlap thresholds (minimum 50% overlap required for merging)
- Dead composite identification (profiles that become engulfed by newer composites)
- Real-time updates as new price action develops using barstate.islast optimization
Visual Customization
- Customizable colors for active, broken, and dead composites
- Adjustable transparency levels for each composite state
- Premium/Discount zone highlighting based on current price vs composite range
- TPO aggression coloring using TPO distribution analysis to identify buying/selling pressure
- Fibonacci level extensions with 1.618 target calculations based on composite range
Clean Chart Presentation
- Only shows the most relevant composite levels (maximum 10 active composites)
- Eliminates clutter from individual session profiles
- Focuses on areas of balance that matter most to current price action
Real-World Trading Examples
Day Trading with Session Composites
Use session-based composites to identify intraday areas of balance. The VAH and VAL levels often act as natural profit targets and stop-loss levels for scalping strategies.
Swing Trading with Daily Composites
Daily composites provide excellent swing trading levels. Look for price reactions at composite zones and use the 1.618 extensions for profit targets.
Position Trading with Weekly Composites
Weekly composites help identify major trend changes and long-term areas of balance. These levels often hold for months or even years.
Risk Management
Composite levels provide natural stop-loss levels. If a composite level breaks, it often signals a significant shift in market sentiment, making it an ideal place to exit losing positions.
Why Composite Levels Work
Composite levels work because they represent areas where significant trading decisions were made across multiple timeframes. When price returns to these levels, traders often remember the previous price action and make similar decisions, creating self-fulfilling prophecies.
The compositing process uses a proprietary algorithm that ensures only levels validated across multiple time periods are displayed. This means you're looking at levels that have proven their significance through actual market behavior, not just random technical levels.
Technical Foundation
The indicator uses TPO (Time Price Opportunity) data combined with price action analysis to identify areas of balance. The C2M row sizing method ensures accurate profile calculations, while the overlap detection algorithm (minimum 50% price range intersection) ensures only truly significant composites are displayed. The algorithm calculates row size based on ATR (Average True Range) divided by 10, then converts to tick size for precise level calculations.
How the Code Actually Works
1. Period Detection and ATR Calculation
The code first determines the appropriate timeframe based on your chart:
- 1m-5m charts: Session-based profiles
- 15m-2h charts: Daily profiles
- 4h charts: Weekly profiles
- 1D charts: Monthly profiles
For each period type, it calculates the number of bars needed for ATR calculation:
- Sessions: 540 minutes divided by chart timeframe
- Daily: 1440 minutes divided by chart timeframe
- Weekly: 7 days worth of minutes divided by chart timeframe
- Monthly: 30 days worth of minutes divided by chart timeframe
2. C2M Row Size Calculation
The code calculates True Range for each bar in the determined period:
- True Range = max(high-low, |high-prevClose|, |low-prevClose|)
- Averages all True Range values to get ATR
- Row Size = (ATR / 10) converted to tick size
- This ensures each TPO row represents a meaningful price movement
3. TPO Profile Generation
For each period, the code:
- Creates price levels from lowest to highest price in the range
- Each level is separated by the calculated row size
- Counts how many bars touch each price level (TPO count)
- Finds the level with highest count = Point of Control (POC)
- Calculates Value Area by expanding from POC until 68.27% of total TPO blocks are included
4. Overlap Detection Algorithm
When a new profile is created, the code checks if it overlaps with existing composites:
- Calculates overlap range = min(currentVAH, prevVAH) - max(currentVAL, prevVAL)
- Calculates current profile range = currentVAH - currentVAL
- Overlap percentage = (overlap range / current profile range) * 100
- If overlap >= 50%, profiles are merged into a composite
5. Composite Merging Logic
When profiles overlap, the code creates a new composite by:
- Taking the earliest start bar and latest end bar
- Using the wider VAH/VAL range (max of both profiles)
- Keeping the POC from the profile with more TPO blocks
- Marking the composite as "active" until price breaks through
6. Real-Time Updates
The code uses barstate.islast to optimize performance:
- Only recalculates on the last bar of each period
- Updates active composite with live price action if enabled
- Cleans up old composites to prevent memory issues
- Redraws all visual elements from scratch each bar
7. Visual Rendering System
The code uses arrays to manage drawing objects:
- Clears all lines/boxes arrays on every bar
- Iterates through composites array to redraw everything
- Uses different colors for active, broken, and dead composites
- Calculates 1.618 Fibonacci extensions for broken composites
Getting Started with CTPO
Step 1: Choose Your Timeframe
Select the period type that matches your trading style:
- Use "Sessions" for day trading
- Use "Daily" for swing trading
- Use "Weekly" for position trading
- Use "Auto" to let the indicator choose based on your chart timeframe
Step 2: Customize the Display
Adjust colors, transparency, and display options to match your charting preferences. The indicator offers extensive customization options to ensure it fits seamlessly into your existing analysis.
Step 3: Identify Key Levels
Look for:
- Composite zones (blue boxes) - major areas of balance
- VAH/VAL lines - value area boundaries
- POC lines - areas of highest trading activity
- 1.618 extension lines - breakout targets
Step 4: Develop Your Strategy
Use these levels to:
- Set entry points near composite zones
- Place stop losses beyond composite levels
- Take profits at 1.618 extension levels
- Identify trend changes when major composites break
Perfect for Market Profile Traders
If you're already using market profile concepts in your trading, CTPO eliminates the manual work of compositing profiles across different timeframes. Instead of spending time analyzing each individual period, you get instant access to the composite levels that matter most.
The indicator's automated compositing process ensures you're always looking at the most relevant areas of balance, while its real-time updates keep you informed of changes as they happen.

Volume Profile AnalysisThe Volume Profile Dashboard is a professional-grade analysis tool built for TradingView. It focuses on displaying a comprehensive volume profile breakdown within a dashboard format directly on the chart. The purpose of this tool is to help traders quickly assess buy versus sell volume dynamics, momentum, and sentiment in order to support informed trading decisions.
Instead of plotting simple bars, this indicator uses a detailed table and visual progress bar to summarize live and historical market activity. By condensing key metrics into a structured format, traders can analyse market behaviour without manually calculating or switching between multiple indicators.
________________________________________
How the Script Works
1. Data Gathering
The script uses lower-timeframe price and volume data to calculate buy volume, sell volume, and total traded volume for the current and previous candles.
2. Volume Allocation
Buy and sell volumes are estimated by looking at the candle’s range (high to low) and how the closing price aligns within that range. The closer the close is to the high, the stronger the buying pressure. The closer the close is to the low, the stronger the selling pressure.
3. Delta and Momentum
o Delta measures the difference between buy and sell volume.
o Volume momentum compares the current candle’s activity to the previous one, showing if interest is rising or fading.
4. Point of Control (POC)
An average of high, low, and close is calculated to give an approximate “point of control” level—an area of balance where buyers and sellers previously agreed on price.
5. Dashboard Visualization
All these calculations are displayed inside a clean dashboard table with separate rows for the current candle, previous candle, and a summary row. Icons, colors, and progress bars make it visually intuitive.
6. On-Chart Progress Indicator
A dynamic horizontal progress bar is plotted on the chart above price, showing the balance between buy and sell volume for the latest activity.
7. Alerts
Built-in alerts trigger when strong buying or selling pressure is detected or when there is a significant spike in total traded volume.
________________________________________
How This Tool Can Be Used
• Intraday Trading: Quickly gauge whether buyers or sellers are in control of the market at any moment.
• Swing Trading: Compare momentum shifts between candles to identify early trend reversals.
• Risk Management: Use delta and sentiment signals to confirm whether to hold or reduce exposure.
• Confirmation: Align the volume profile dashboard with other indicators (such as RSI, MACD, or trendlines) for stronger trading conviction.
________________________________________
Using Mixed Indicators for Decisions
This dashboard alone provides volume insights, but better decisions come when it is combined with other tools:
• Pairing it with an RSI can show whether heavy buying is happening in overbought conditions.
• Combining with a SuperTrend or moving averages can confirm if volume momentum aligns with the price trend.
• Overlaying support/resistance levels can identify whether strong buy/sell signals occur at critical levels.
Mixed indicators prevent relying on one signal alone, reducing false trades.
________________________________________
Importance of This Tool
• Clarity: Condenses complex volume data into a simple, visual format.
• Speed: Traders can react faster with pre-calculated buy/sell percentages.
• Precision: Highlights hidden imbalances that are not obvious from candles alone.
• Professional-grade dashboard: Offers an institutional-style view of market behavior directly within TradingView.
________________________________________
Parameters in the Dashboard Table
• Period: Shows whether the row is for the current or previous candle, along with trend arrows.
• Price Range: The high–low range of the candle.
• Total Volume: The sum of buy and sell activity.
• Buy Volume / Sell Volume: Separated distribution of transactions leaning bullish or bearish.
• Delta: The net difference between buy and sell volumes, highlighting pressure imbalance.
• Buy % / Sell %: The percentage contribution of each side to total volume.
• POC: An average reference level where market consensus was strongest.
• Progress: A graphical bar showing buy vs sell dominance.
• Signal: Simplified output like Strong Buy, Buy, Strong Sell, Sell, Neutral.
• Summary Row: Compares changes between the current and previous candles and gives overall market sentiment.

Volume Profile + Pivot Levels [ChartPrime]⯁ OVERVIEW
Volume Profile + Pivot Levels combines a rolling volume profile with price pivots to surface the most meaningful levels in your selected lookback window. It builds a left-side profile from traded volume, highlights the session’s Point of Control (PoC) , and then filters pivot highs/lows so only those aligned with significant profile volume are promoted to chart levels. Each promoted level extends forward until price retests it—so your chart stays focused on levels that actually matter.
⯁ KEY FEATURES
Rolling Volume Profile (Period & Resolution)
Calculates a profile over the last Period bars (default 200). The profile is discretized into Volume Profile Resolution bins (default 50) between the highest high and lowest low inside the window. Each bin accumulates traded volume and is drawn as a smooth left-side polyline for compact, lightweight rendering.
HL = array.new()
// collect highs/lows over 'start' bars to define profile range
for i = 0 to start - 1
HL.push(high ), HL.push(low )
H = HL.max(), L = HL.min()
bin_size = (H - L) / bins
// accumulate per-bin volume
for i = 0 to bins - 1
for j = 0 to start - 1
if close >= (L + bin_sizei) - bin_size and close < (L + bin_size*(i+1)) + bin_size
Bins += volume
Delta-Aware Coloring
The script tracks up-minus-down volume across all period to compute a net Delta . The profile, PoC line, and PoC label adopt a teal tone when net positive, and maroon when net negative—an immediate read on buyer/seller dominance inside the window.
Point of Control (PoC) + Volume Label
Automatically marks the highest-volume bin as the PoC . A horizontal PoC line extends to the last bar, and a label shows the absolute volume at the PoC. Toggle visibility via PoC input.
Pivot Detection with Volume Filter
Identifies raw pivots using Length (default 10) on both sides of the bar. Each candidate pivot is then validated against the profile: only pivots that land within their bin and meet or exceed the Filter % threshold (percentage of PoC volume) are promoted to chart levels. This removes weak, low-participation pivots.
// pivot promotion when volume% >= pivotFilter
if abs(mid - p.value) <= bin_size and volPercent >= pivotFilter
// draw labeled pivot level
line.new(p.index - pivotLength, p.value, p.index + pivotLength, p.value, width = 2)
Forward-Extending, Self-Stopping Levels
Promoted pivot levels extend forward as dotted rays. As soon as price intersects a level (high/low straddles it), that level stops extending—so your chart doesn’t clutter with stale zones.
Concise Level Labels (Volume + %)
Each promoted pivot prints a compact label at the pivot bar with its bin’s absolute volume and percentage of PoC volume (ordering flips for highs vs. lows for quick read).
Lightweight Visuals
The volume profile is rendered as a smooth polyline rather than dozens of boxes, keeping charts responsive even at higher resolutions.
⯁ SETTINGS
Volume Profile → Period : Lookback window used to compute the profile (max 500).
Volume Profile → Resolution : Number of bins; higher = finer structure.
Volume Profile → PoC : Toggle PoC line and volume label.
Pivots → Display : Show/hide volume-validated pivot levels.
Pivots → Length : Pivot detection left/right bars.
Pivots → Filter % 0–100 : Minimum bin strength (as % of PoC) required to promote a pivot level.
⯁ USAGE
Read PoC direction/color for a quick net-flow bias within your window.
Prioritize promoted pivot levels —they’re backed by meaningful participation.
Watch for first retests of promoted levels; the line will stop extending once tested.
Adjust Period / Resolution to match your timeframe (scalps → higher resolution, shorter period; swings → lower resolution, longer period).
Tighten or loosen Filter % to control how selective the level promotion is.
⯁ WHY IT’S UNIQUE
Instead of plotting every pivot or every profile bar, this tool cross-checks pivots against the profile’s internal volume weighting . You only see levels where price structure and liquidity overlap—clean, data-driven levels that self-retire after interaction, so you can focus on what the market actually defends.
VPOC Harmonics - Liquidity-Weighted Price / Time RatiosVPOC Harmonics - Liquidity-Weighted Price / Time Ratios
Summary
This indicator transforms a swing’s price range, duration, and liquidity profile into a structured set of price-per-bar ratios. By anchoring two points and manually entering the swing’s VPOC (highest-volume price), it generates candidate compression values that unify price, time, and liquidity structure. These values can be applied to chart scaling, harmonic testing, and liquidity-aware market geometry.
________________________________________
Overview
Most swing analysis tools only consider price (ΔP) and time (N bars). This script goes further by incorporating the VPOC (Point of Control) — the price with the highest traded volume — directly into swing geometry.
• Anchors define the swing’s Low (L), High (H), and bar count (N).
• The user manually enters the VPOC (highest-volume price).
• The indicator then computes a suite of ratios that integrate range, duration, and liquidity placement.
The output is a table of liquidity-weighted price-per-bar candidates, designed for compression testing and harmonic analysis across swings and instruments.
________________________________________
How to Use
1. Select a Swing
- Place Anchor A and Anchor B to define the swing’s Low, High, and bar count.
2. Find the VPOC
- Apply TradingView’s Fixed Range Volume Profile tool over the same swing.
- Identify the Point of Control (POC) — the price level with the highest traded volume.
3. Enter the VPOC
- Manually input the POC into the indicator settings.
4. Review Outputs
- The table will display candidate ratios expressed mainly as price-per-bar values.
5. Apply in Practice
- Use the ratios as chart compression inputs or as benchmarks for testing harmonic alignments across swings.

Outputs
Swing & Inputs
• Bars (N): total bar count of the swing.
• Low (L): swing low price.
• High (H): swing high price.
• ΔP = H − L: price range.
• Mid = (L + H) ÷ 2: midpoint price.
• VPOC (V): user-entered highest-volume price.
• Base slope s0 = ΔP ÷ N: average change per bar.
• π-adjusted slope sπ = (π × ΔP) ÷ (2 × N): slope adjusted for half-cycle arc geometry.
________________________________________
VPOC Harmony Ratios (L, H, V, N)
• λ = (V − L) ÷ ΔP: normalized VPOC position within the range.
• R = (V − L) ÷ (H − V): symmetry ratio comparing lower vs. upper segment.
• s1 = (V − L) ÷ N: slope from Low → VPOC.
• s2 = (H − V) ÷ N: slope from VPOC → High.
________________________________________
Blended Means (s1, s2)
These combine the two segment slopes in different ways:
• HM(s1,s2) = 2 ÷ (1/s1 + 1/s2): Harmonic mean, emphasizes the smaller slope.
• GM(s1,s2) = sqrt(s1 × s2): Geometric mean, balances both slopes proportionally.
• RMS(s1,s2) = sqrt((s1² + s2²) ÷ 2): Root-mean-square, emphasizes the larger slope.
• L2 = sqrt(s1² + s2²): Euclidean norm, the vector length of both slopes combined.
________________________________________
Slope Blends
• Quadratic weighting: s_quad = s0 × ((V−L)² + (H−V)²) ÷ (ΔP²)
• Tilted slope: s_tilt = s0 × (0.5 + λ)
• Entropy-scaled slope: s_ent = s0 × H2(λ), with H2(λ) = −
________________________________________
Curvature & Liquidity Extensions
• π-arc × λ: s_arc = sπ × λ
• Liquidity-π: s_piV = sπ × (V ÷ Mid)
________________________________________
Scale-Normalized Families
With k = sqrt(H ÷ L):
• k (scale factor) = sqrt(H ÷ L)
• s_comp = s0 ÷ k: compressed slope candidate
• s_exp = s0 × k: expanded slope candidate
• Exponentiated blends:
- s_kλ = s0 × k^(2λ−1)
- s_φλ = s0 × φ^(2λ−1), with φ = golden ratio ≈ 1.618
- s_√2λ = s0 × (√2)^(2λ−1)
________________________________________
Practical Application
All formulas generate liquidity-weighted price-per-bar ratios that integrate range, time, and VPOC placement.
These values are designed for:
• Chart compression settings
• Testing harmonic alignments across swings
• Liquidity-aware scaling experiments

Volume Profile Grid [Alpha Extract]A sophisticated volume distribution analysis system that transforms market activity into institutional-grade visual profiles, revealing hidden support/resistance zones and market participant behavior. Utilizing advanced price level segmentation, bullish/bearish volume separation, and dynamic range analysis, the Volume Profile Grid delivers comprehensive market structure insights with Point of Control (POC) identification, Value Area boundaries, and volume delta analysis. The system features intelligent visualization modes, real-time sentiment analysis, and flexible range selection to provide traders with clear, actionable volume-based market context.
🔶 Dynamic Range Analysis Engine
Implements dual-mode range selection with visible chart analysis and fixed period lookback, automatically adjusting to current market view or analyzing specified historical periods. The system intelligently calculates optimal bar counts while maintaining performance through configurable maximum limits, ensuring responsive profile generation across all timeframes with institutional-grade precision.
// Dynamic period calculation with intelligent caching
get_analysis_period() =>
if i_use_visible_range
chart_start_time = chart.left_visible_bar_time
current_time = last_bar_time
time_span = current_time - chart_start_time
tf_seconds = timeframe.in_seconds()
estimated_bars = time_span / (tf_seconds * 1000)
range_bars = math.floor(estimated_bars)
final_bars = math.min(range_bars, i_max_visible_bars)
math.max(final_bars, 50) // Minimum threshold
else
math.max(i_periods, 50)
🔶 Advanced Bull/Bear Volume Separation
Employs sophisticated candle classification algorithms to separate bullish and bearish volume at each price level, with weighted distribution based on bar intersection ratios. The system analyzes open/close relationships to determine volume direction, applying proportional allocation for doji patterns and ensuring accurate representation of buying versus selling pressure across the entire price spectrum.
🔶 Multi-Mode Volume Visualization
Features three distinct display modes for bull/bear volume representation: Split mode creates mirrored profiles from a central axis, Side by Side mode displays sequential bull/bear segments, and Stacked mode separates volumes vertically. Each mode offers unique insights into market participant behavior with customizable width, thickness, and color parameters for optimal visual clarity.
// Bull/Bear volume calculation with weighted distribution
for bar_offset = 0 to actual_periods - 1
bar_high = high
bar_low = low
bar_volume = volume
// Calculate intersection weight
weight = math.min(bar_high, next_level) - math.max(bar_low, current_level)
weight := weight / (bar_high - bar_low)
weighted_volume = bar_volume * weight
// Classify volume direction
if bar_close > bar_open
level_bull_volume += weighted_volume
else if bar_close < bar_open
level_bear_volume += weighted_volume
else // Doji handling
level_bull_volume += weighted_volume * 0.5
level_bear_volume += weighted_volume * 0.5
🔶 Point of Control & Value Area Detection
Implements institutional-standard POC identification by locating the price level with maximum volume accumulation, providing critical support/resistance zones. The Value Area calculation uses sophisticated sorting algorithms to identify the price range containing 70% of trading volume, revealing the market's accepted value zone where institutional participants concentrate their activity.
🔶 Volume Delta Analysis System
Incorporates real-time volume delta calculation with configurable dominance thresholds to identify significant bull/bear imbalances. The system visually highlights price levels where buying or selling pressure exceeds threshold percentages, providing immediate insight into directional volume flow and potential reversal zones through color-coded delta indicators.
// Value Area calculation using 70% volume accumulation
total_volume_sum = array.sum(total_volumes)
target_volume = total_volume_sum * 0.70
// Sort volumes to find highest activity zones
for i = 0 to array.size(sorted_volumes) - 2
for j = i + 1 to array.size(sorted_volumes) - 1
if array.get(sorted_volumes, j) > array.get(sorted_volumes, i)
// Swap and track indices for value area boundaries
// Accumulate until 70% threshold reached
for i = 0 to array.size(sorted_indices) - 1
accumulated_volume += vol
array.push(va_levels, array.get(volume_levels, idx))
if accumulated_volume >= target_volume
break
❓How It Works
🔶 Weighted Volume Distribution
Implements proportional volume allocation based on the percentage of each bar that intersects with price levels. When a bar spans multiple levels, volume is distributed proportionally based on the intersection ratio, ensuring precise representation of trading activity across the entire price spectrum without double-counting or volume loss.
🔶 Real-Time Profile Generation
Profiles regenerate on each bar close when in visible range mode, automatically adapting to chart zoom and scroll actions. The system maintains optimal performance through intelligent caching mechanisms and selective line updates, ensuring smooth operation even with maximum resolution settings and extended analysis periods.
🔶 Market Sentiment Analysis
Features comprehensive volume analysis table displaying total volume metrics, bullish/bearish percentages, and overall market sentiment classification. The system calculates volume dominance ratios in real-time, providing immediate insight into whether buyers or sellers control the current price structure with percentage-based sentiment thresholds.
🔶 Visual Profile Mapping
Provides multi-layered visual feedback through colored volume bars, POC line highlighting, Value Area boundaries, and optional delta indicators. The system supports profile mirroring for alternative perspectives, line extension for future reference, and customizable label positioning with detailed price information at critical levels.
Why Choose Volume Profile Grid
The Volume Profile Grid represents the evolution of volume analysis tools, combining traditional volume profile concepts with modern visualization techniques and intelligent analysis algorithms. By integrating dynamic range selection, sophisticated bull/bear separation, and multi-mode visualization with POC/Value Area detection, it provides traders with institutional-quality market structure analysis that adapts to any trading style. The comprehensive delta analysis and sentiment monitoring system eliminates guesswork while the flexible visualization options ensure optimal clarity across all market conditions, making it an essential tool for traders seeking to understand true market dynamics through volume-based price discovery.

Traders applying volume profile analysis without needing the full built-in volume profile tool.
Spotting dynamic high-volume zones in trends or ranges.
Strategy development or confirmation around high-interest price levels.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Данный индикатор отображает до 4 независимых уровней Point of Control (POC), рассчитанных по объёмам.
📌 Каждый POC можно настраивать отдельно:
Периоды: День (D), Неделя (W), Месяц (M) или BARS (скользящее окно по количеству баров).
Автоматический пересчёт при смене периода (например, новый день, неделя или месяц).
Линии POC привязаны к цене и масштабируются вместе с графиком.
Настраиваемый цвет и толщина линий.
🔍 Как работает:
Для каждой активной линии POC создаётся объёмное распределение: берется средняя цена свечи (hl2) и объем.
Диапазон цен делится на 100 уровней. Тот, где накоплено больше всего объёма, и есть POC.
В режиме BARS уровень пересчитывается каждые N баров. В режимах D/W/M — строго в начале нового периода.
✅ Подходит для:
Трейдеров, использующих объёмный анализ, но не имеющих платной подписки на Volume Profile.
Поиска уровней интереса и подтверждения сигналов.
Разработки стратегий с опорой на объём.

RSI VWAP POC [Uncle Sam Trading]Category: Oscillators, Volume, Market Profile
Timeframe: Suitable for all timeframes
Markets: Crypto, Forex, Stocks, Commodities
Overview
The RSI VWAP POC indicator is a powerful and innovative oscillator that combines the Relative Strength Index (RSI), Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP), and Point of Control (POC) from market profile analysis. Designed to provide traders with clear, high-probability trading signals, this indicator helps you identify key market levels, spot overbought/oversold conditions, and time your entries and exits with precision. Whether you’re a day trader, swing trader, or scalper, this free tool adds significant value to your trading strategy by offering a unique blend of momentum, volume, and market profile insights.
How It Works
This indicator integrates three core components to deliver actionable insights:
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Measures momentum to identify overbought (above 70) and oversold (below 30) conditions, helping you anticipate potential reversals.
VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price): Calculates a volume-weighted price benchmark, which is used to compute a more accurate, volume-sensitive RSI. This ensures the indicator reflects true market dynamics.
POC (Point of Control): Derived from market profile analysis, the POC represents the price level with the highest traded volume in a session, acting as a critical support or resistance level.
The indicator plots a smoothed RSI based on VWAP, overlaid with market profile data on a user-defined higher timeframe (default: 4H). The POC is displayed as a red line, with aqua bars indicating the value area where the majority of trading volume occurred. When the RSI crosses the POC, the indicator generates clear buy and sell signals:
Strong Buy (SBU): RSI crosses above the POC in an oversold zone.
Strong Sell (SBD): RSI crosses below the POC in an overbought zone.
Additional features include:
Background colors to highlight bullish (green) or bearish (red) trends.
Shaded zones for overbought (70/60) and oversold (30/40) levels.
Customizable settings to fit your trading style and timeframe.
How This Indicator Adds Value
The RSI VWAP POC indicator offers several key benefits that enhance your trading performance:
High-Probability Signals: By combining RSI, VWAP, and POC, this indicator identifies trades at key market levels where price is likely to react, increasing your win rate.
Improved Timing: Clear buy and sell signals, such as ‘SBU’ and ‘SBD’, help you enter and exit trades at optimal points, maximizing profitability.
Risk Management: Overbought/oversold zones and trend confirmation via background colors help you avoid false signals, protecting your capital.
Versatility: Suitable for all markets (crypto, forex, stocks) and timeframes, making it a valuable tool for traders of all experience levels.
Time Efficiency: The indicator does the heavy lifting by analyzing momentum, volume, and market profile data, allowing you to focus on executing trades.
Real-World Performance Example: On a 1-hour Bitcoin chart with a 4-hour higher timeframe, this indicator identified a strong sell signal on April 6th at 12:00 ($82,000), leading to a 9% drop to $74,600. A subsequent strong buy signal on April 7th at 04:00 ($76,200) captured a 6% rise to $81,200 – a potential 25% profit with 5x leverage if exited at 5%.
How to Use
Add the Indicator: Search for “RSI VWAP POC ” in TradingView’s indicator library and add it to your chart.
Set Your Timeframe: The indicator works on any timeframe but is optimized for a 1-hour chart with a 4-hour higher timeframe (set in the settings).
Interpret Signals:
Look for ‘SBU’ (strong buy) labels when the RSI crosses above the POC in an oversold zone, indicating a potential buying opportunity.
Look for ‘SBD’ (strong sell) labels when the RSI crosses below the POC in an overbought zone, signaling a potential selling opportunity.
Use the background colors (green for bullish, red for bearish) to confirm the trend.
Combine with Your Strategy: Use the indicator alongside your existing analysis (e.g., support/resistance, candlestick patterns) for best results.
Settings and Customization
The indicator is highly customizable to suit your trading needs:
RSI Length (Default: 14): Adjust the sensitivity of the RSI. Use a shorter length (e.g., 10) for scalping, or a longer length (e.g., 20) for smoother signals.
EMA Smoothing Length (Default: 3): Smooths the RSI line. Increase to 5 or 7 for less choppy signals in volatile markets.
Higher Timeframe (Default: 240 minutes): Set to 240 (4 hours) for a 1-hour chart. Adjust based on your chart’s timeframe (e.g., 60 minutes for a 15-minute chart).
Value Area Percentage (Default: 100%): Defines the size of the value area around the POC. Lower to 70% for a tighter focus on key levels.
Overbought/Oversold Thresholds (Defaults: 70/30): Adjust these levels to match market conditions (e.g., 80/20 for trending markets).
Show POC Line (Default: True): Toggle the red POC line on or off.
Show Buy/Sell Signals: Enable ‘Show Strong Breakup Signals’ and ‘Show Strong Breakdown Signals’ to focus on high-probability trades.
Why Choose This Indicator?

volume profile ranking indicator📌 Introduction
This script implements a volume profile ranking indicato for TradingView. It is designed to visualize the distribution of traded volume over price levels within a defined historical window. Unlike TradingView’s built-in Volume Profile, this script gives full customization of the profile drawing logic, binning, color gradient, and the ability to anchor the profile to a specific date.
⚙️ How It Works (Logic)
1. Inputs
➤POC Lookback Days (lookback): Defines how many bars (days) to look back from a selected point to calculate the volume distribution.
➤Bin Count (bin_count): Determines how many price bins (horizontal levels) the price range will be divided into.
➤Use Custom Lookback Date (useCustomDate): Enables/disables manually selecting a backtest start date.
➤Custom Lookback Date (customDate): When enabled, the profile will calculate volume based on this date instead of the most recent bar.
2. Target Bar Determination
➤If a custom date is selected, the script searches for the bar closest to that date within 1000 bars.
➤If not, it defaults to the latest bar (bar_index).
➤The profile is drawn only when the current bar is close to the target bar (within ±2 bars), to avoid unnecessary recalculations and performance issues.
3. Volume Binning
➤The price range over the lookback window is divided into bin_count segments.
➤For each bar within the lookback window, its volume is added to the appropriate bin based on price.
➤If the price falls outside the expected range, it is clamped to the first or last bin.
4. Ranking and Sorting
➤A bubble sort ranks each bin by total volume.
➤The most active bin (POC, or Point of Control) is highlighted with a thicker bar.
5. Rendering
➤Horizontal bars (line.new) represent volume intensity in each price bin.
➤Each bar is color-coded by volume heat: more volume = more intense color.
➤Labels (label.new) show:
➤Total volume
➤Rank
➤Percentage of total volume
➤Price range of the bin
🧑💻 How to Use
1. Add the Script to Your Chart
➤Copy the code into TradingView’s Pine Script editor and add it to your chart.
2. Set Lookback Period
➤Default is 252 bars (about one year for daily charts), but can be changed via the input.
3. (Optional) Use Custom Date
●Toggle "Use Custom Lookback Date" to true.
➤Pick a date in the "Custom Lookback Date" input to anchor the profile.
4. Analyze the Volume Distribution
➤The longest (thickest) red/orange bar represents the Point of Control (POC) — the price with the most volume traded.
➤Other bars show volume distribution across price.
➤Labels display useful metrics to evaluate areas of high/low interest.
✅ Features
🔶 Customizable anchor point (custom date).
🔶Adjustable bin count and lookback length.
🔶 Clear visualization with heatmap coloring.
🔶 Lightweight and performance-optimized (especially with the shouldDrawProfile filter)

TPO Profiles
A TPO profile is a market profile visualization that details how much time was spent at each price level throughout the time interval.
The image above further explains what a TPO Profile is!
Each letter corresponds to a candlestick. With this information, traders are able to visualize how much time was spent at each price area.
With customizable gradient colors, specifically in this example, blocks colored red are the earliest times in the profile, blocks colored green are in the beginning half of the time midpoint of the profile. Blue blocks represent the first half of the end of the time period, and purple blocks correspond to the end of the time period.
Please note that this form of TPO profile generation will only occur when the most recent profile uses less than 500 alphabet characters! If more than 500 characters are preset, TPO IQ will revert to using labels!
Initial Balance
TPO IQ also identifies the initial balance range and all alphabet characters that form within it!
The image above exemplifies this feature. The initial balance range is denoted by a a neon-blue line, with a blue circle showing the opening price. All characters within the initial balance range are highlighted blue, which is a feature that can be disabled with customizable colors.
POC
TPO IQ also identifies the point of control (POC) of the TPO Profile.
The point of control for the profile is labeled yellow by default, and shows where price spent the most time throughout the time period.
The image above shows the POC for the time period being identified by TPO IQ.
Value Area
TPO IQ also identifies the value area of the profile. A customizable percentage that is 70% by default, the value area of a TPO profile shows where price traded the majority of the time.
The image above further explains this feature. For this example, with the value area percentage being set to 70%, the value area high and value area low show the price zone that prices traded at 70% of the time throughout the profile.
TPO Midpoint
In addition to the POC, the TPO profile midpoint is also identified by TPO IQ.
The TPO midpoint simply corresponds to the middle price between the session's high and low!
Fixed Interval Mode
By default, TPO IQ recalculates every day, but this can also be changed to a customizable session time, such as 4 hours. If 4 hours is selected, then a new TPO profile will be generated every 4 hours.
However, in Fixed Interval mode, a TPO profile will be generated through a user-defined time range, such as 1300-1700.
In the image above, Fixed Interval mode is applied with a time range of 1300-1700 and, consequently, TPO IQ generates a new profile throughout every 1300-1700 time range!
This feature allows traders to specify time ranges of interest to generate TPO profiles for!
TPO Overview Label
The TPO overview label shows key statistics for the TPO profile generated throughout the trading session!
The "TPO Count" statistic shows how many alphabetical letters were generated for the profile, which is an adequate method to determine the session's volatility and price range.
The "Tick Levels" statistic shows how many tick levels were used to create the profile - another method to determine the volatility and price range of the session.
The "Top Letter" statistic shows which letter appears most throughout the profile. In this example, the top letter was "f", which means throughout creation of the profile, the letter "f" appeared the most!
And that's all for now!
