IB with Range PercentageThis Pine Script indicator for TradingView combines several powerful technical analysis tools to give traders a comprehensive view of market action:
Inside Bar Detection: Identifies the classic inside bar candlestick pattern.
Moving Averages: Provides multiple moving averages to help determine trend and potential support/resistance levels.
Information Table: Displays key market data in a concise table format.
1. Inside Bar Detection and Range
The indicator marks inside bars on the chart. An inside bar is a candlestick where its entire range (high and low) falls within the range of the preceding candlestick (often called the "mother bar"). This pattern often signifies market consolidation or indecision.
Customizable Marking: Users can choose the shape and color used to mark the inside bars, such as triangles, squares, or circles.
Range Percentage: A label shows the range of the inside bar as a percentage of the previous bar's low, providing a quantitative measure of its size.
Time Restriction: A setting allows displaying inside bars only for a specified number of past days, focusing analysis on recent price action.
Customizable Label Size: Users can choose the size of the range percentage label for optimal visibility.
2. Moving Averages for Trend Analysis
The indicator can plot up to four moving averages (MAs) on the chart. Moving averages smooth out price data to help identify trends and potential support and resistance levels.
User-Selectable MA Type: For each MA, traders can choose between Simple Moving Average (SMA) or Exponential Moving Average (EMA).
Customizable Length: Users can specify the length (number of periods) for each MA, such as 20, 50, 100, or 200.
Customizable Color: Each MA's line color can be chosen to suit personal preferences.
Trend Identification: When the price is above an MA, it suggests an uptrend, while prices below suggest a downtrend. The slope of the MA also indicates trend momentum.
3. Information Table for Key Data
A customizable information table is displayed on the chart, providing a quick overview of important market data.
Average Daily Range (ADR) Percentage: Shows the average daily range of the asset as a percentage, reflecting its historical volatility.
Distance from EMAs: Displays how far the current price is from the 10, 20, and 50 period Exponential Moving Averages. A positive percentage indicates the price is above the MA, while a negative percentage means it's below.
Customizable Table Elements: Users can choose the table's background color, text color, and text size for optimal readability.
How to Use This Indicator:
This indicator can be a valuable tool for traders using technical analysis:
Inside Bar Breakouts: Inside bars often precede breakouts. Traders can use the inside bar markings and range percentage to identify potential breakout opportunities.
Confirmation of Trends: Moving averages help confirm the direction of the trend, enabling traders to align their inside bar strategies with the prevailing market direction.
Support and Resistance: Moving averages can act as dynamic support and resistance levels. Traders can look for inside bars forming near these levels as potential entry or exit points.
Volatility and Range Analysis: The ADR percentage helps assess the normal daily range of an asset, which can be useful for setting realistic price targets and managing risk.
Risk Management: The distance from EMAs can alert traders to potential overextended moves, providing information for setting stop-loss or take-profit levels.
By combining these elements, this indicator provides a layered approach to market analysis, allowing traders to identify potential trading opportunities and manage risk effectively based on both candlestick patterns and trend-following indicators. Remember that no indicator guarantees success, and it's essential to use this tool in conjunction with other analysis techniques and proper risk management practices.

Multi-Timeframe ATR, Range Size, and Ticks DisplayThis PineScript indicator for TradingView displays a multi-timeframe (MTF) table showing ATR values, calculated range sizes (based on a user-defined percentage of ATR), and the number of ticks (R) in each range size for timeframes: 15m, 1h, 4h, 8h, and 1D. It also shows the minimum price change (mintick) for the symbol.
Key features:
ATR Calculation: Uses the standard ATR with a configurable period (default 14) fetched via request.security for each timeframe.
Range Size: Computes range as ATR * (percentage / 100), where percentage is user-input (default 10%).
Ticks (R): Divides range size by syminfo.mintick to get the number of ticks, useful for setting range bar sizes (e.g., in NinjaTrader or TradingView range charts).
Table Display: A customizable table at the top-right corner, updated only on the last bar for performance. Includes an option to show/hide the table.
Compatibility: Works on time-based charts; values remain consistent even if switching chart types, as ATR is always pulled from specified timeframes.
To use: Add to TradingView, adjust inputs, and apply to a time-based chart (e.g., 1m or 5m) for scalping BTC/USDT as per your strategy. The script ensures calculations are timeframe-independent, so switching to range/renko/etc. won't alter the displayed MTF data.
Twin Range Filter – Buy/Sell SignalsThe Twin Range Filter is a trend-following indicator that combines two adaptive volatility filters to identify potential market reversals and trend continuations. It uses two configurable smoothing periods (fast and slow) to calculate a dynamic range around price, filtering out market noise and highlighting meaningful shifts in direction.
This indicator plots BUY and SELL signals based on price action in relation to the range filter, as well as internal trend conditions.
✅ How It Works:
Long Signal (BUY) is triggered when:
Price is above the filtered range (showing strength), and
Short-term upward momentum is confirmed.
Short Signal (SELL) is triggered when:
Price is below the filtered range (showing weakness), and
Short-term downward momentum is confirmed.
The signals are highlighted using green "Long" and red "Short" labels on the chart.
Background colors reinforce the current directional bias.
🔔 Alerts:
Long Signal – A new BUY condition has been detected.
Short Signal – A new SELL condition has been detected.
📌 Use Cases:
Entry timing for swing or intraday trades
Trend confirmation filter
Signal generator in automated strategies (when paired with a strategy script)

ICT Average Daily Range (ADR)📊 ICT Average Daily Range (ADR) Indicator
This indicator implements the Average Daily Range (ADR) concept taught by ICT (Inner Circle Trader). It calculates the average range of previous trading days and projects key levels for the current session, helping traders identify high-probability targets and reversal zones.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
✨ KEY FEATURES
- Accurate ADR Calculation - Uses only completed trading sessions (excludes current incomplete day)
- ICT Judas Swing Levels - Highlights the critical 1/3 ADR levels where institutional manipulation often occurs
- Two Calculation Modes - New York Midnight (ICT recommended) or Classic Daily
- Customizable Fractional Levels - 1/3, 2/3, 25%, 50%, 75% of ADR
- Smart Labels - Display price levels and percentage from open
- Flexible Visual Style - Separate line styles for different level groups

- Friday: Partial session (00:00 to ~17:00 NY time)
- Sunday: Partial session (~17:00 NY to Monday 00:00)
- Saturday: No trading
Impact on ADR:
Both Friday and Sunday are partial sessions which can lower your ADR average. For example: Mon-Thu average 100 pips, Fri 70 pips, Sun 30 pips = 5-day ADR of 80 pips.
Other Markets:
- Crypto: 24/7 trading, no partial days
- Futures/Stocks: No Sunday session
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

FVG Range Filter0x278's FVG Range Filter
Overview
The FVG Range Filter is a TradingView indicator designed to identify and display Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) on your chart. FVGs are areas of price imbalance that often act as significant zones for potential price retracement or reversal. This indicator filters out irrelevant gaps, showing only those that are within a specified price range and time frame, making it easier to focus on high-probability trading opportunities.
This guide is crafted to help both novice and experienced traders understand how to use this indicator effectively, even if you're new to the concept of FVG trading. We'll cover what FVGs are, how the indicator works, how to interpret its visual elements, and how to apply it in various trading scenarios.
What are Fair Value Gaps (FVGs)?
Fair Value Gaps occur when the price of an asset moves so quickly in one direction that it leaves a 'gap' or 'void' on the chart where no trading activity occurred. These gaps represent areas of imbalance between supply and demand, often created by strong buying or selling pressure. Traders use FVGs to identify potential areas where price might return to 'fill' the gap, offering opportunities for entries or exits.
Bullish FVG : This happens when price jumps upward, leaving a gap below. It suggests strong buying pressure and often acts as a support zone when price retraces.
Bearish FVG : This occurs when price drops sharply, leaving a gap above. It indicates strong selling pressure and often acts as a resistance zone when price retraces.
How the FVG Range Filter Works
The FVG Range Filter indicator automatically detects these gaps based on a specific three-bar pattern that identifies significant price imbalances. It then applies filters to ensure only relevant FVGs are displayed:
Range Filter : Only shows FVGs whose midpoint is within a user-defined percentage of the current price. This keeps the focus on gaps that are close enough to be actionable.
Time Filter : Only displays FVGs that are younger than a specified number of bars, ensuring you're looking at recent and relevant price action.
Invalidation : Once the price trades through the midpoint of an FVG, the gap is considered 'filled' or invalidated, and it is removed from the chart.
This filtering mechanism declutters your chart, highlighting only the most pertinent FVGs for your trading decisions.
Indicator Settings
The FVG Range Filter offers customizable inputs to tailor its behavior to your trading style:
Display Range (%) : This sets the percentage range from the current price within which FVGs are shown. A lower value (e.g., 1.0%) shows only gaps very close to the current price, while a higher value (e.g., 5.0%) includes gaps further away. Default is 1.0%.
Look-back Bars : This determines how far back in time the indicator looks for FVGs. It also limits how long a gap remains visible if it hasn't been invalidated. Default is 1000 bars.
Show Bullish FVGs : Toggle to display bullish FVGs (green boxes by default). Default is enabled.
Show Bearish FVGs : Toggle to display bearish FVGs (red boxes by default). Default is enabled.
Box Opacity (0-100) : Adjusts the transparency of the FVG boxes on the chart. A value of 0 is fully transparent (invisible), while 100 is fully opaque. Default is 33 for a subtle appearance.
Visual Elements and Interpretation
The indicator draws rectangular boxes on your chart to represent FVGs. Understanding these visual elements is key to using the indicator effectively:
Green Boxes : Represent bullish FVGs. These are areas where price gapped upward, suggesting potential support zones. If price retraces to this area, it might bounce off as buyers step in to defend the level.
Red Boxes : Represent bearish FVGs. These are areas where price gapped downward, indicating potential resistance zones. If price retraces to this area, it might face selling pressure and reverse downward.
Box Position and Extension : Each box starts at the bar where the FVG was detected and extends to the right, updating dynamically as new bars form. This extension helps maintain visibility until the gap is either invalidated or falls out of the look-back period.
Disappearance of Boxes : A box disappears from the chart in two scenarios:
Price Moves Away : If the midpoint of the FVG moves outside the specified display range percentage from the current price, or if the FVG becomes older than the look-back bars limit, the box is removed (though the gap data persists in memory for potential re-display if conditions are met again).
Invalidation : If price trades through the midpoint of the FVG (i.e., the low of a candle goes below the midpoint for a bullish FVG, or the high goes above the midpoint for a bearish FVG), the gap is considered filled, and the box is permanently removed from the chart.
Trading Scenarios with FVG Range Filter
Below are detailed trading scenarios to help you understand how to use the FVG Range Filter in practical situations. These scenarios assume you're trading with the trend or looking for reversals at key levels.
Scenario 1: Bullish FVG as Support for Long Entry
Setup : You're trading a stock in an uptrend on a 15-minute chart. The FVG Range Filter displays a green box (bullish FVG) after a sharp upward move earlier in the day.
Interpretation : This green box indicates a zone of imbalance where price gapped up, likely due to strong buying interest. Since it's still within the display range and look-back period, it's a relevant support zone.
Action : Wait for price to retrace back to the top edge of the green box. Look for confirmation of support, such as a bullish candlestick pattern (e.g., hammer or engulfing) or increased volume, indicating buyers are stepping in.
Entry : Enter a long position near the top of the FVG box, setting a stop-loss just below the bottom of the box to protect against a breakdown.
Target : Aim for the next resistance level or a predefined risk-reward ratio (e.g., 1:2). If another bullish FVG forms above, consider that as a potential target.
Exit : Exit the trade if price breaks below the bottom of the FVG (invalidation), or if the box disappears due to price trading through the midpoint, signaling the gap is filled.
Scenario 2: Bearish FVG as Resistance for Short Entry
Setup : You're trading a cryptocurrency on a 1-hour chart during a downtrend. The indicator shows a red box (bearish FVG) after a sharp downward move a few hours ago.
Interpretation : The red box marks a zone where price gapped down, indicating strong selling pressure. As long as it's within the display range and look-back period, it remains a potential resistance zone.
Action : Wait for price to rally back to the bottom edge of the red box. Look for signs of rejection, such as a bearish candlestick pattern (e.g., shooting star or engulfing) or decreasing volume, suggesting sellers are defending this level.
Entry : Enter a short position near the bottom of the FVG box, placing a stop-loss just above the top of the box to guard against a breakout.
Target : Target the next support level or a favorable risk-reward ratio. If a new bearish FVG appears below, it could serve as a potential target.
Exit : Exit if price breaks above the top of the FVG (invalidation), or if the box disappears because price has traded through the midpoint, indicating the gap is no longer relevant.
Scenario 3: Filtering Out Irrelevant FVGs During Choppy Markets
Setup : You're trading forex on a 5-minute chart during a period of consolidation with no clear trend. The chart shows frequent small price jumps, but the FVG Range Filter displays very few boxes.
Interpretation : The indicator is filtering out FVGs that are either too far from the current price (outside the display range percentage) or too old (beyond the look-back bars). This helps avoid false signals in a non-trending market.
Action : Recognize that the absence of FVGs on the chart suggests no high-probability setups at the moment. Avoid forcing trades based on minor price movements that don't meet the filter criteria.
Entry : Wait for a clear trend to emerge and for new FVGs to appear within the filter parameters before considering any trades.
Target/Exit : Follow the trend direction once FVGs are displayed, using the edges of the boxes as potential entry or exit zones as described in the previous scenarios.
Scenario 4: Using FVGs for Risk Management
Setup : You're already in a long position on an index futures contract on a 30-minute chart, and the FVG Range Filter shows a green box below your entry point.
Interpretation : The green box represents a bullish FVG that could act as a support zone. Since price hasn't yet reached the midpoint (which would invalidate the FVG), it remains a valid reference point for managing risk.
Action : Adjust your stop-loss to just below the bottom of the green box. This placement uses the FVG as a logical invalidation level, assuming that a break below this support zone negates the bullish premise of your trade.
Entry : No new entry is needed since you're already in the trade.
Target/Exit : Keep your original target unless a new bearish FVG forms above, which might indicate resistance. Exit if price breaks below the FVG or if the box disappears due to invalidation.
Tips for Using the FVG Range Filter
Combine with Trend Analysis : FVGs are most effective when traded in the direction of the prevailing trend. Use higher timeframe analysis or other indicators to confirm the overall market direction before acting on FVGs.
Adjust Settings for Market Conditions : In volatile markets (like cryptocurrencies), you might increase the display range percentage to capture more FVGs. In less volatile markets (like certain stocks), a tighter range might be more appropriate.
Timeframe Selection : The indicator works on all timeframes, but lower timeframes (1-15 minutes) might show more frequent FVGs for scalping, while higher timeframes (1-4 hours) are better for swing trading with larger, more significant gaps.
Confirmation Tools : Don't rely solely on FVGs for entries. Use additional confirmation from price action (candlestick patterns), volume, or other indicators to increase the probability of success.
Monitor Invalidation : If an FVG box disappears from the chart due to price trading through its midpoint, consider it a signal that the gap is no longer relevant. Adjust your strategy accordingly.
Limitations
Not a Standalone System : The FVG Range Filter identifies potential zones of interest but does not provide entry signals, stop-loss, or take-profit levels on its own. It should be used as part of a broader trading strategy.
Market Conditions : FVGs may be less effective in strongly trending markets where price doesn't retrace to fill gaps, or in very choppy markets where too many small gaps are filtered out.
Lag in Detection : Since FVGs are based on a three-bar pattern, there is a slight delay in identifying them after the price movement has occurred.
Good Luck!
The FVG Range Filter is a powerful tool for traders looking to capitalize on price imbalances in the market. By focusing only on relevant Fair Value Gaps within a specified range and time frame, it helps declutter your chart and highlights high-probability zones for potential trades. Whether you're new to FVG trading or an experienced trader, this indicator can enhance your analysis by visually identifying key areas of support and resistance based on market inefficiencies.
Experiment with the settings to match your trading style and market conditions, and always combine the indicator's insights with other forms of analysis for the best results. Happy trading!

True Range eXpansion🕯️ TRX — True Range eXpansion
Clean Candle Bodies · Volatility Bands · Adaptive Range Envelope System
Not your grandfather’s candles. Not your brokerage’s bands.
----------------------------------------------------
TRX begins with a simple concept: visualize the true range of every candle, without the noise of flickering wicks.
From there, it grows into a fully adaptive price visualization framework.
What started as a candle-only visualizer evolved into a modular, user-controlled price engine.
From wickless candle clarity to dynamic volatility envelopes, TRX adapts to you.
There are plenty of band and channel indicators out there — Bollinger, Keltner, Donchian, Envelope, the whole crew.
But none of them are built on the true candle range, adaptive ATR shaping, and full user control like TRX.
This isn’t just another indicator — it’s a new framework.
Most bands and channels are based on close price and statistical deviation — useful, but limited.
TRX uses the full true range of each candle as its foundation, then applies customizable smoothing and directional ATR scaling to form a dynamic, volatility-reactive envelope.
The result? Bands that breathe with the market — not lag behind it.
----------------------------------------------------
🔧 Core Features:
🕯️ True Range Candles — Each candle is plotted from low to high, body-only, colored by open/close.
📈 Adjustable High/Low Moving Averages — Select your smoothing style: SMA, EMA, WMA, RMA, or HMA.
🌬️ ATR-Based Expansion — Bands dynamically breathe based on market volatility.
🔀 Per-Band Multipliers — Fine-tune expansion individually for the upper and lower bands.
⚖️ Basis Line — Optional centerline between bands for structure tracking and equilibrium zones.
🎛️ Full Visual Control — Width, transparency, color, on/off toggles for each element.
----------------------------------------------------
🧠 Default Use Case:
With the included default settings, TRX behaves like an evolved Bollinger Band system — based on True Range candle structure, not just close price and standard deviation.
----------------------------------------------------
🔄 How to Zero Out the Bands (for Minimalist Use):
Want just candles? A clean MA? Single band? You got it.
➤ Use TRX like a clean moving average:
• Set ATR Multiplier to 0
• Set both Band ATR Adjustments to 0
• Leave the Basis Line ON or OFF — your call
➤ Show only candles (no bands at all):
• Turn off "Show High/Low MAs"
• Turn off Basis Line
➤ Single-line ceiling or floor tracking:
• Set one band’s Transparency to 100
• Use the remaining band as a price envelope or support/resistance guide
----------------------------------------------------
🧬 Notes:
TRX can be made:
• Spiky or silky (via smoothing & ATR)
• Wide or tight (via multipliers)
• Subtle or aggressive (via color/transparency)
• Clean as a compass or dirty as a chaos meter
Built by accident. Tuned with intention.
Released to the world as one of the most adaptable and expressive visual overlays ever made.

Opening Range and Market BoundariesOpening Range and Market Boundaries
This versatile and insightful indicator combines two powerful concepts frequently used by professional traders: Opening Range Analysis and Market Boundaries derived from previous high/low levels. It is specifically designed to support intraday trading strategies and helps you identify key price zones for entries, exits, and breakout confirmations.
🔍 Features & Utility
1. Opening Range Box
What it does:
Highlights the high and low of the first candle after market open (9:15 AM IST) with a shaded box. This box spans the full trading session, from 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM, representing the key price range where the initial balance is formed.
Timeframe Compatibility:
The Opening Range box is optimized for 1-minute to 1-hour charts. It is most effective on lower timeframes (1m, 5m, 15m, 30m) where intraday price movements and breakout patterns can be clearly observed.
Usage Tips:
Breakouts above or below the Opening Range box can signal potential directional bias for the rest of the trading day.
Price consolidating within the range may indicate a choppy or range-bound session.
Works well with volume and momentum indicators for confirmation.
2. Market Boundaries
What it does:
Plots horizontal lines at:
Previous Day High/Low
Previous Week High/Low
Previous Month High/Low
Why it matters:
These levels act as natural support and resistance zones, and are commonly watched by institutional traders, making them crucial for:
Spotting reversals or breakouts
Planning stop-loss and target zones
Avoiding trades around high-rejection areas
Customization Options:
Toggle ON/OFF for Daily, Weekly, and Monthly levels.
Independent colors and line thickness for each level, enabling you to distinguish between different timeframes easily.
🛠️ How to Use Effectively
Use during market open:
Switch to a 5-minute or 15-minute chart during the first few candles of the session. Observe the Opening Range box formation and plan trades based on breakout direction.
Confluence Trading:
Look for price action near previous session highs/lows in confluence with the Opening Range box edges. These intersections often become high-probability zones for breakouts or reversals.
Session Preparation:
Before the market opens, analyze where the price is relative to past high/low boundaries. If it's near a weekly/monthly level, be cautious — those areas can cause whipsaws or false breakouts.
Avoid low-volume breakouts:
Use this indicator in conjunction with volume tools or price action confirmation to validate the strength of a move outside the Opening Range or Market Boundaries.
📌 Summary
This indicator is designed for intraday traders, scalpers, and swing traders who want a reliable structure to guide their decisions. It visually marks the opening balance of the market and essential higher timeframe boundaries, helping you trade with discipline and precision.

Strong Body Candle (80% of Range)You said:
Strong body candle 80% range
ChatGPT said:
A strong body candle with an 80% range typically refers to a candlestick on a price chart (usually used in technical analysis) where the real body of the candle (the open-to-close price movement) makes up 80% or more of the entire candle’s range (the high-to-low movement).
Breakdown:
Candle Range = High − Low
Body Size = |Close − Open|
Body-to-Range Ratio = (Body Size ÷ Candle Range) × 100
If this ratio is ≥ 80%, the candle is considered to have a strong body.
Interpretation:
A strong bullish candle: Close is near the high, open is near the low — strong buying pressure.
A strong bearish candle: Close is near the low, open is near the high — strong selling pressure.
These candles often signal momentum or trend continuation, especially when occurring after consolidation or at breakout points.
Would you like a script or formula to help detect these on a chart?

🔥 Strong Body Candle (80% Range) — Indicator Description
This indicator highlights candlesticks where the real body constitutes 80% or more of the entire candle's range (High − Low). These candles often represent strong momentum and are useful for identifying potential trend continuations, reversals, or breakout confirmations.
📌 Key Features:
✅ Detects both bullish and bearish strong body candles.
✅ Customizable threshold (default: 80%) for fine-tuning to your strategy.
✅ Visual markers make it easy to spot high-momentum candles on any timeframe.
📊 How It Works:
The script calculates the ratio of the candle's body size (|Close − Open|) to its total range (High − Low). If the ratio is equal to or above 80%, the candle is flagged:
Green Marker = Strong Bullish Candle (Close > Open)
Red Marker = Strong Bearish Candle (Open > Close)
🛠️ Use Cases:
Identify momentum shifts and breakout confirmations.
Use with support/resistance zones or trendlines for stronger signals.
Combine with volume indicators for enhanced precision.

Trend vs Range DetectorMarkets often oscillate between trend phases and range-bound consolidations. Accurately identifying which environment you're in can dramatically improve your strategy's performance — whether you're a breakout trader, trend follower, or mean reversion specialist.
This Pine Script helps do exactly that — with zero clutter, no chart overlays, and a simple, clean table at the top-right corner telling you one thing:
👉 Is the market trending or range-bound?
⚙️ How It Works
The script uses two core metrics to classify the market environment:
1. Slope Sensitivity of Moving Average
A simple moving average (default: 50-period) is used.
The absolute slope of the moving average is calculated.
If the slope exceeds a user-defined sensitivity value, it indicates directional momentum.
2. ATR-to-Price Range Ratio
Measures volatility by comparing Average True Range (ATR) to the total high-low price range over the same period.
A higher ATR relative to the range indicates directional volatility — a trending behavior.
A low ratio signals a choppy or sideways market.
If both conditions are met, the table displays "Trending." If either condition fails, it shows "Range-Bound."
🧠 Why This Matters
Trend Traders: Know when to lean into momentum plays.
Mean Reversion Traders: Avoid whipsaw conditions or capitalize on sideways action.
Volatility Filters: Use this signal to apply different strategies to different market types.
🛠️ User Controls
Moving Average Length: Adjust trend sensitivity by length (default: 50)
Slope Sensitivity: Tune how steep a trend needs to be to qualify
ATR/Range Threshold: Calibrate what defines a volatile enough trend move
Toggle Table On/Off: Keep the chart clean if needed
🧼 Clean Visuals
No lines, no bands, no background colors.
Just a concise table in the top-right corner.
Perfect for scalpers, swing traders, or overlaying on busy strategies.
🔄 Real-Time + Historical
The script dynamically updates with every bar, so it works in real time and shows accurate historical context across any symbol or timeframe.

Volume Range Profile with Fair Value (Zeiierman)█ Overview
The Volume Range Profile with Fair Value (Zeiierman) is a precision-built volume-mapping tool designed to help traders visualize where institutional-level activity is occurring within the price range — and how that volume behavior shifts over time.
Unlike traditional volume profiles that rely on fixed session boundaries or static anchors, this tool dynamically calculates and displays volume zones across both the upper and lower ends of a price range, revealing point-of-control (POC) levels, directional volume flow, and a fair value drift line that updates live with each candle.
You’re not just looking at volume anymore. You’re dissecting who’s in control — and at what price.
⚪ In simple terms:
Upper Zone = The upper portion of the price range, showing concentrated volume activity — typically where selling or distribution may occur
Lower Zone = The lower portion of the price range, highlighting areas of high volume — often associated with buying or accumulation
POC Bin = The bin (price level) with the highest traded volume in the zone — considered the most accepted price by the market
Fair Value Trend = A dynamic trend line tracking the average POC price over time — visualizing the evolving fair value
Zone Labels = Display real-time breakdown of buy/sell volume within each zone and inside the POC — revealing who’s in control
█ How It Works
⚪ Volume Zones
Upper Zone: Anchored at the highest high in the lookback period
Lower Zone: Anchored at the lowest low in the lookback period
Width is user-defined via % of range
Each zone is divided into a series of volume bins
⚪ Volume Bins (Histograms)
Each zone is split into N bins that show how much volume occurred at each level:
Taller = More volume
The POC bin (Point of Control) is highlighted
Labels show % of volume in the POC relative to the whole zone
⚪ Buy vs Sell Breakdown
Each volume bin is split by:
Buy Volume = Close ≥ Open
Sell Volume = Close < Open
The script accumulates these and displays total Buy/Sell volume per zone.
⚪ Fair Value Drift Line
A POC trend is plotted over time:
Represents where volume was most active across each range
Color changes dynamically — green for rising, red for falling
Serves as a real-time fair value anchor across changing market structure
█ How to Use
⚪ Identify Key Control Zones
Use Upper/Lower Zone structures to understand where supply and demand is building.
Zones automatically adapt to recent highs/lows and re-center volume accordingly.
⚪ Follow Institutional Activity
Watch for POC clustering near price tops or bottoms.
Large volumes near extremes may indicate accumulation or distribution.
⚪ Spot Fair Value Drift
The fair value trend line (average POC price) gives insight into market equilibrium.
One strategy can be to trade a re-test of the fair value trend, trades are taken in the direction of the current trend.
█ Understanding Buy & Sell Volume Labels (Zone Totals)
These labels show the total buy and sell volume accumulated within each zone over the selected lookback period:
Buy Vol (green label) → Total volume where candles closed bullish
Sell Vol (red label) → Total volume where candles closed bearish
Together, they tell you which side dominated:
Higher Buy Vol → Bullish accumulation zone
Higher Sell Vol → Bearish distribution zone
This gives a quick visual insight into who controlled the zone, helping you spot areas of demand or supply imbalance.
█ Understanding POC Volume Labels
The POC (Point of Control) represents the price level where the most volume occurred within the zone. These labels break down that volume into:
Buy % – How much of the volume was buying (price closed up)
Sell % – How much was selling (price closed down)
Total % – How much of the entire zone’s volume happened at the POC
Use it to spot strong demand or supply zones:
High Buy % + High Total % → Strong buying interest = likely support
High Sell % + High Total % → Strong selling pressure = likely resistance
It gives a deeper look into who was in control at the most important price level.
█ Why It’s Useful
Track where fair value is truly forming
Detect aggressive volume accumulation or dumping
Visually split buyer/seller control at the most relevant price levels
Adapt volume structures to current trend direction
█ Settings Explained
Lookback Period: Number of bars to scan for highs/lows. Higher = smoother zones, Lower = reactive.
Zone Width (% of Range): Controls how much of the range is used to define each zone. Higher = broader zones.
Bins per Zone: Number of volume slices per zone. Higher = more detail, but heavier on resources.

Closing Range BreakoutIndicator Description:
This tool tracks the closing price range of a trading session (like New York or London market hours) and highlights potential breakout opportunities. It shows:
Extended Range Lines: Drawn after the session closes, marking the high/low of the session's final hour.
Breakout Arrows: Appear when prices close above/below the range for a user-defined number of consecutive bars.
Session Background: Gray highlight during the selected market's closing hour.
It helps traders spot momentum shifts by focusing on price behavior relative to the closing range, with customizable alerts for confirmed breakouts.
How to Use:
Select Session: Choose your market's closing hour (e.g., New York/London).
Set Confirmation: Adjust how many closes are needed to confirm a breakout.
Watch Visuals:
Gray background = Active closing session
Blue range = Extended high/low from last session
Arrows = First breakout signal
Trade Signals: Price closing outside the range triggers alerts (labels update automatically).
Focus on breakouts with momentum, using the range as support/resistance.
EMA Price Range by tuanduongEMA Price Range Indicator – Dynamic Range Analysis with Custom EMA (tuanduong2511)
Overview
The EMA Price Range Indicator is designed to help traders visualize the distance between price action and a key Exponential Moving Average (EMA). This indicator dynamically calculates the range from each candle to a user-defined EMA and displays it in a real-time table. By understanding the relationship between price and the EMA, traders can better gauge potential support, resistance, and overextension in the market.
Key Features
✅ Customizable EMA – Allows users to choose the EMA period that best suits their strategy (default: 144).
✅ Real-Time Range Calculation – Computes the absolute difference between the EMA and the price (using the high or low, depending on whether the candle is above or below the EMA).
✅ Minimalist UI – The EMA is plotted directly on the chart, while a small table in the bottom-right corner provides numerical insights, reducing chart clutter.
✅ Versatile Use Cases – Suitable for trend-following traders (identifying pullbacks to EMA) and mean-reversion traders (spotting extended price movements).
How It Works
User-Defined EMA:
The script calculates an Exponential Moving Average (EMA) based on the selected period.
EMA adapts dynamically, giving more weight to recent price movements.
Range Calculation:
If the price is above the EMA, the range is measured from the high point of the candle to the EMA.
If the price is below the EMA, the range is measured from the low point of the candle to the EMA.
This approach ensures that we’re measuring the most relevant distance for price interaction.
Live Table Display:
The current EMA value and the distance (range) from the price are displayed in a small table in the bottom-right corner of the chart.
How to Use It
📌 Trend Traders: Use the indicator to track pullbacks to key EMAs (e.g., EMA 50, 144, or 200). When the price is far from the EMA, it may indicate an overextended trend or potential retracement zone.
📌 Mean Reversion Traders: Look for extreme deviations between price and the EMA. Large distances can signal potential price snapbacks to the mean.
📌 Scalping & Day Trading: Short-term traders can use it with fast EMAs (e.g., EMA 21 or 34) to measure quick price movements relative to short-term momentum.
Why This Indicator?
Unlike traditional EMA indicators, which only plot a moving average, this script provides quantifiable price distance to the EMA, helping traders make data-driven decisions. It allows traders to answer:
✅ Is the price stretched too far from the EMA?
✅ Should I wait for a pullback before entering?
✅ Is the trend strong, or is the price losing momentum?
By integrating EMA-based range analysis, traders gain a clearer understanding of market conditions and can improve their entry, exit, and risk management strategies.
