Institutional Activity Index [AlgoAlpha]🌟 Introducing the Institutional Activity Index by AlgoAlpha 🌟 Welcome to a powerful new indicator designed to gauge institutional trading activity! This cutting-edge tool combines volume analysis with price movement to derive a unique index that shines a spotlight on potential institutional moves in the market. 🎯📈 Key Features: 🔍 Normalization Period : Adjust the look-back period for normalization to tailor the sensitivity to your trading strategy. 📊 Moving Average Types : Choose from SMA, HMA, EMA, RMA, WMA, or VWMA to smooth the index and pinpoint trends. 🌈 Color-Coded Trends : Instant visual feedback on index trend direction with customizable up and down colors. 🔔 Alerts : Set alerts for when the index shows increasing activity, decreasing activity, or has reached a peak. Quick Guide to Using the Institutional Activity Index: 1. 📝 Add the Indicator: Add the indicator to favorites. Adjust the normalization period, MA type, and peak detection settings to match your trading style. 2. 📈 Market Analysis: Similar to volume that reflects the amount of collective trading activity, this index reflects an estimate of the amount of trading activity by institutions. A higher value means that institutions are trading the asset more, this can mean selling or buying as the indicator does not indicate direction . Look out for peak signals, which may indicate that institutions have already secured positions in preparation for a move in price. 3. 🔔 Set Alerts: Enable alerts to notify you when there is a significant change in the activity levels or a new peak is detected, allowing for timely decisions without constant monitoring. How It Works: 🛠 It is common knowledge that institutions trade with high amounts of capital, but employ tactics so as to not move the price significantly when entering on positions. This can be done by entering in times of high liquidity so that when an institution buys, there are enough sellers to cancel out the price movements and prevent a huge pump in price and vice versa. The Institutional Activity Index calculates liquidity by measuring the volume relative to the price range (close-open). This value is smoothed using median and a user defined moving average type and period, enhancing its clarity. If normalization is enabled, the index is adjusted relative to its range over a user-defined period, making the data comparable across different conditions. Embrace this innovative tool to enhance your trading insights and strategies! 🚀✨

Basic Logic Behind the Indicator: The Smart Money Liquidity Heatmap utilizes the Smart Money Interest Index Indicator and operates by differentiating between the trading behaviors of informed (smart money) and less-informed (retail) traders. It calculates the differences between specific volume indices—Positive Volume Index (PVI) for retail investors and Negative Volume Index (NVI) for institutional players—and their respective moving averages, highlighting these differences using the Relative Strength Index (RSI) over user-specified periods. This calculation generates a ratio that is then normalized and compared against a threshold to identify areas of high institutional trading interest, visually representing these zones on your chart as vibrant heatmaps. This enables traders to visually identify where significant trading activities among smart money are occurring, potentially signalling important buying or selling opportunities. 🎉 Elevate your trading experience with precision, insight, and clarity by integrating the Smart Money Liquidity Heatmap into your toolkit today!

Commitments of Traders Report [Advanced]This indicator displays the Commitment of Traders (COT) report data in a clear, table format similar to an Excel spreadsheet, with additional functionalities to analyze open interest and position changes. The COT report, published weekly by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), provides valuable insights into market sentiment by revealing the positioning of various trader categories. Display: Release Date: When the data was released. Open Interest: Shows the total number of open contracts for the underlying instrument held by selected trader category. Net Contracts: Shows the difference between long and short positions for selected trader category. Long/Short OI: Displays the long and short positions held by selected trader category. Change in Long/Short OI: Displays the change in long and short positions since the previous reporting period. This can highlight buying or selling pressure. Long & Short Percentage: Displays the percentage of total long and short positions held by each category. Trader Categories (Configurable) Commercials: Hedgers who use futures contracts to manage risk associated with their underlying business (e.g., producers, consumers). Non-Commercials (Large Speculators): Speculative traders with large positions who aim to profit from price movements (e.g., hedge funds, investment banks). Non-Reportable (Small Speculators/Retail Traders): Smaller traders with positions below the CFTC reporting thresholds. CFTC Code: If the indicator fails to retrieve data, you can manually enter the CFTC code for the specific instrument. The code for instrument can be found on CFTC's website. Using the Indicator Effectively Market Sentiment Gauge: Analyze the positioning of each trader category to gauge overall market sentiment. High net longs by commercials might indicate a bullish outlook, while high net shorts could suggest bearish sentiment. Changes in open interest and long/short positions can provide additional insights into buying and selling pressure. Trend Confirmation: Don't rely solely on COT data for trade signals. Use it alongside price action and other technical indicators for confirmation. Identify Potential Turning Points: Extreme readings in COT data, combined with significant changes in open interest or positioning, might precede trend reversals, but exercise caution and combine with other analysis tools. Disclaimer Remember, the COT report is just one piece of the puzzle. It should not be used for making isolated trading decisions. Consider incorporating it into a comprehensive trading strategy that factors in other technical and fundamental analysis. Credit A big shoutout to Nick from Transparent FX ! His expertise and thoughtful analysis have been a major inspiration in developing this COT Report indicator. To know more about this indicator and how to use it, be sure to check out his work.

Bodies X Wix Version of Smart Money Tools by makuchaku & eFeThis is the same Script as Super Fair Value Gaps / FVG /BoS / by makuchaku & eFe. Mine Should Default to Large Text instead of small. The Super Order Blocks I believe was meant to for you to find one of the many Smart Money tools such as turn on the Fair Value gap but leave the others off, or Turn on where the Break of Structure and leave the others off. The reason I believe this is because the default values for each of the structures were default colored (green for positive and red for negative) for all. Mine has a different Color for every possible structure. As long as you can read with the larger text that I added, then you can create your own boxes positive for break of structure, rejection block, order blocks and fair value gaps for any time frame. The reason I did that is because There's only certain things I believe I will need to mark for myself in each time frame, and then from there You can stretch iyour own box out further in time because if price touches a fair value gap for example, the fair value gap should conyinue in time until at least 2 candles have filed the Fair valu gap going both directions. That's truly when the fair value gap should is mitigated and will from off the chart. However, If I knew How to add the code for that, I would. Additionally, I have the Max Boxes per chart, so you should have the ability to see every OB, FVG,RJB, & BoS on the chart I tried my hardest to create a colored border that was different from the box. But the way the original was coded was almost impossible to do. Because they defined each of the structures (FVG, OB, BoS, RJB) outer levels, when the outer levels connect via math in the code, then it joins all the outside lines for a rectangle. When creating a box, the coloe will always be the same as the border unfortunately. (Unless I replan this from the beginning) I also Changed the default labels for reach structure from a hard to read gray to a white that pops out. Also, chart indicators are a little large as well. Such as the cross, sideways cross, The green Triangle, and the white Diamond. You'll get used to it or you can change it as well. Creating videos for students, you need something they can see. So, I just wanted to ensure everything was a little more unique and easily usable when showing this to my students when I send them private videos for our weekly lessons. I'm trying to learn how to use the IPFS for THAT, (which i see has invaded PineScript) Hope this indicator helps. If you're to borrow this, Just make sure you keep the authors in the name makuchaku & efe

Earthquake Effect by DGTInstitutional investors have a profound impact on financial instruments prices because of the large volume, and their trading activities can greatly impact the price of financial instruments. They sometimes may split trades over time in order to not make a material impact and of course not to decrease liquidity to the point where there may be no one to take the other side of the trade. Institutional investors (Smart Money) may create an Elephant Effect on the prices of financial instruments, and this study aims to display by emphasizing high volume changes In the memory of the North Anatolian Earthquake that struck on August 17, 1999, that we remember with pain today, and similarities of plotting outcomes to seismograph plotting I preferred to name this study as Earthquake Effect (SEISMOGRAPH) Disclaimer: Trading success is all about following your trading strategy and the indicators should fit within your trading strategy, and not to be traded upon solely The script is for informational and educational purposes only.
