Higher Time Frame Support/Resistance [BigBeluga]The Higher Time Frame Support/Resistance indicator is a tool designed to display pivot points derived from higher timeframes on your current chart. These pivot points are calculated based on the highs and lows of price action in different timeframes, and the indicator draws horizontal lines to represent these levels. These lines act as potential support and resistance zones, giving traders key market levels that may influence future price movement.
Each pivot line is color-coded and labeled with its price value and the timeframe it originates from. This allows traders to clearly differentiate between the significance of the levels based on their timeframe. For example, weekly pivot levels may represent stronger, more long-term support and resistance, while hourly pivots offer more immediate, short-term levels to watch.
🔵 IDEA
The Higher Time Frame Support/Resistance indicator is designed to simplify the process of tracking key support and resistance levels across multiple timeframes. Pivot points, which represent turning points in the market, are essential for identifying areas where price might reverse or break out. By displaying these levels from higher timeframes directly on the current chart, traders can quickly identify and react to critical areas in the market without needing to switch between different timeframe charts.
The indicator labels each pivot point with the specific timeframe it comes from (e.g., 4H, 1D, 1W), making it easy for traders to assess the relative strength of each level. Stronger levels from higher timeframes are likely to act as more significant barriers or support zones, while lower timeframe levels can be used for more precise entries and exits.
🔵 KEY FEATURES
Pivot Levels from Multiple Timeframes:
The indicator calculates pivot highs and lows from various higher timeframes (e.g., 4H, 1D, 1W) and plots these levels on the current chart. These pivot points are represented by horizontal lines that extend across the chart, serving as potential support and resistance zones.
Color-Coded Support and Resistance Lines:
Each pivot level is color-coded based on its timeframe, helping traders quickly differentiate between short-term and long-term support and resistance. This visual aid simplifies the analysis and allows for a clearer understanding of key market levels.
Price Labels and Timeframe Information:
In addition to the pivot lines, the indicator displays labels at each level with the corresponding price and timeframe. For example, a label may show "D Pivot High" followed by the exact price. This helps traders understand the origin and significance of each line, allowing for more informed trading decisions.
Labels up and down mark highs and lows from higher timeframes:
Pivot Shadows for Enhanced Clarity:
The indicator can also draw shadow lines that represent the pivot points but with increased transparency. These shadows allow traders to keep track of previous pivots without cluttering the chart with too many solid lines. The width and transparency of these shadows can be customized in the settings.
🔵 HOW TO USE
🔵 CUSTOMIZATION
Timeframes and Pivot Length: Customize which higher timeframes (e.g., 4H, 1D, 1W) you want to display pivot levels from. Adjust the pivot length to control how sensitive the indicator is in detecting market highs and lows.
Line Style and Colors: Adjust the line style (solid, dashed, dotted) and colors for each timeframe to match your personal preference or chart theme. This customization helps in maintaining a clear and visually appealing chart.
Shadow Line Width and Transparency: Control the width and transparency of the shadow pivot lines to reduce chart clutter while still keeping track of key historical levels.

Supply and Demand by BrekelThis is a supply and demand indicactor that uses an ema 8 and 20 overlaid with supply and demand zones based on different time frames. POI is points of interest which act as a high demand area and BOS is break of structure that indicates the breakout up/down is in effect and the supply demand zones will no longer be in effect. This works very well on higher time frames but can be very useful for intra-day trading as well.
ORB with ATR Trailing SL [Bluechip Algos]This is a simple ORB (Opening Range Breakout) Indicator that not only signals breakout directions based on the opening session range but also includes trailing stop levels to manage ongoing trades. Instead of regular fixed Stop loss, we use ATR indicator (ATR based SL) to trail the stop loss that might help in maximizing the profitable trades. This helps especially during the trending days where market moves unidirectionally.
About the Indicator
Opening Range Identification: The indicator defines an initial session timeframe and captures the highest and lowest prices during this period.
Breakout Signals: It signals potential entry points when the price crosses these range boundaries.
Trailing Stop Calculation: Customizable trailing stop-loss based on ATR percentage, helping users lock in profits.
Features
Session Customization: User-defined session for setting the opening range.
Entry Signal Customization: Allows configuration for breakouts on either a closing basis or upon touching the level.
Automatic Stop-Loss Adjustments: Dynamic trailing stop levels that adapt to both long and short entries.
Visual Display: Highlights breakout levels and plots lines representing stop-loss levels.
Understanding the Indicator
Range Calculation: After defining the session, the high and low of the session are locked. The high serves as the upper breakout boundary, and the low as the lower boundary.
Signals (Buy and Sell): The indicator uses crossover conditions:
Buy Signal ("B") when price crosses above the ORB high.
Sell Signal ("S") when price crosses below the ORB low.
Trail Stop Calculation: When a signal is triggered, a trailing stop level is set and updates as the trade progresses:
Long positions have a stop-loss based on a percentage below the last closing price.
Short positions have a stop-loss based on a percentage above the last closing price.
Input Parameters
Session Time (ORB Session Time): Start and end times for setting the ORB range.
Signal Configuration: Choice between "CLOSE" (signal on close) or "TOUCH" (signal as soon as level is touched).
ATR Percentage: Sets the percentage for the trailing stop calculation.

Many thanks to @PaperGainsInc on X for introducing me to the concept!
Happy Trading!
Note: It's not perfect but it works pretty well. If the levels aren't showing or the labels repeat, just switch timeframes and that should fix it.
Swing Percentile Lines [QuantVue]The Swing High/Low Percentile Indicator is designed to help traders identify key price levels based on the most recent swing high and low. By anchoring to the most recent swing high and swing low, the indicator automatically generates percentile lines ( 25%, 50%, 75%) that act as dynamic support and resistance levels.
What Does the Indicator Do?
The Swing High/Low Percentile Indicator works by identifying the most recent significant price swings, whether it's a swing high or swing low. It then calculates the range between these points and divides the distance into percentage-based levels. These levels are plotted on the chart as clear, easy-to-read lines at 25%, 50%, and 75% of the range between the swing high and low.
These percentile lines serve as dynamic price zones where traders can anticipate potential reactions, whether the market is trending or consolidating.
How Can Traders Use the Indicator?
Support and Resistance: The percentile lines act as evolving support and resistance zones. Traders can anticipate price bounces or breaks at these levels, providing opportunities for trend-following or reversal trades.
Trend Identification: The indicator helps traders determine the strength of a trend. In a strong uptrend, price will likely stay above the 50% or 75% lines, while in a downtrend, it may remain below the 50% or 25% lines. This gives traders an edge in recognizing the overall market direction.
Entry and Exit Points: Traders can use the percentile lines to time their entries and exits. For example, entering a trade on a pullback to the 25% or 50% line offers a favorable risk-to-reward ratio. Similarly, the percentile lines serve as natural profit targets, allowing traders to plan exits as the price approaches the 50% or 75% levels.
Risk Management: The clear delineation of price levels makes it easy for traders to set stop-loss orders. For example, if price falls below the 25% line in an uptrend, it may signal weakness, prompting an exit or reduced position size.
Breakout and Breakdown Scenarios: When price breaks above a recent swing high or below a swing low, the percentile lines provide traders with pullback entry opportunities or key levels to watch for continuation of the move.

ATH y ATLEste script muestra el nivel de precio máximo y mínimo de la acción del gráfico, con el objetivo de poder efectuar análisis más precisos en los escenarios donde el precio alcanza esos niveles históricos para poder evaluar la posible acción del precio
First 5 Minutes Open/Close LinesThis very simple indicator paints lines at the high and low of the first 5m candle of the session. It is primarily intended for big cap NYSE traded stocks with high volume. I wrote this indicator to save me the trouble of manually drawing the lines each day.
The lines drawn at the 5m high/low will remain constant regardless of which timeframe you switch to. In the example screenshot, we are looking at the 1m timeframe. This helps us switch effortlessly between different timeframes to see if a given price movement meets our entry criteria.
In addition to drawing lines at the first 5m high/low, it will optionally paint two zones, one each around the high and low. The boundaries of this zone are configurable and expressed as a percentage of the total movement of the first 5m bar. By default, it is set to 25%.
This indicator is based on the concept that the first 5m bar always has massive volume which helps us infer that price may react around the extremes of that movement. The basic strategy works something like this:
- You identify the high timeframe (HTF) trend direction of the stock
- You wait for the first 5m candle of the session to close
- You wait for price to puncture through the outer boundary of the zone marked by the indicator.
- You enter when price retraces to the high, or low, which marks the midpoint of the punctured zone.
- Only enter long on stocks in a HTF uptrend, and short on stocks in an HTF downtrend.
- Use market structure to identify stop loss and take profit targets

Rikki's DikFat Buy/Sell OscillatorAttached we have a very simple Buy/Sell Oscillator.
This script will color candles red when price is bear trending and green when price is bull trending.
I have taken elements of our CCI color signaler indicator found here: to make this very simple and easy to read candlestick color oscillator for traders both new and seasoned.
The the red candles color red as a result of the fuchsia CCI condition on the previously mentioned indicator.
The green candles color as a result of the black CCI color condition on the previously mentioned script.
The script was modified to run the black CCI condition anywhere the fuchsia condition is not displayed and the colors were changed to red and green for a clean visual representation on the chart.
I have not quite got the wick and border colors correct. For some reason they keep reverting when you click out of the script setting. Will update once complete.

MERCURY by Dr.Abiram Sivprasad - Adaptive Pivot and Ema AlertSYSThe MERCURY indicator is an advanced, adaptive indicator designed to support traders in detecting critical price movements and trend reversals in real time. Developed with precision by Dr. Abhiram Sivprasad, this tool combines a sophisticated Central Pivot Range (CPR), EMA crossovers, VWAP levels, and multiple support and resistance indicators into one streamlined solution.
Key Features:
Central Pivot Range (CPR): MERCURY calculates the central pivot along with below-central (BC) and top-central (TC) pivots, helping traders anticipate areas of potential reversal or breakout.
EMA Crossovers: The indicator includes up to nine EMAs with customizable lengths. An integrated EMA crossover alert system provides timely signals for potential trend shifts.
VWAP Integration: The VWAP levels are used in conjunction with EMA crossovers to refine trend signals, making it easier for traders to spot high-probability entries and exits.
Adaptive Alerts for Breakouts and Breakdowns: MERCURY continuously monitors the chart for conditions such as all EMAs turning green or red. The alerts trigger when a candle body closes above/below the VWAP and EMA1 and EMA2 levels, confirming a breakout or breakdown.
Customizable EMA Dashboard: An on-chart table displays the status of EMAs in real-time, with color-coded indicators for easy readability. It highlights long/short conditions based on the EMA setup, guiding traders in decision-making at a glance.
How to Use:
Trend Confirmation: Use the CPR and EMA alignment to identify uptrends and downtrends. The table colors and alerts provide a clear, visual cue for entering long or short positions.
Breakout and Breakdown Alerts: The alert system enables traders to set continuous alerts for critical price levels. When all EMAs align in one color (green for long, red for short), combined with a candle closing above or below VWAP and EMA levels, the indicator generates breakout or breakdown signals.
VWAP & EMA Filtering: VWAP acts as a dynamic support/resistance level, while the EMAs provide momentum direction. Traders can refine entry/exit points based on this multi-layered setup.
Usage Scenarios:
Day Trading & Scalping: Traders can use the CPR, VWAP, and EMA table to make swift, informed decisions. The multiple EMA settings allow scalpers to set shorter EMAs for quicker responses.
Swing Trading: Longer EMA settings combined with VWAP and CPR can provide insights into sustained trends, making it useful for holding positions over several days.
Risk Management: MERCURY dashboard and alert functionality allow traders to set clear boundaries, reducing impulsive decisions and enhancing trading discipline.
Indicator Composition:
Open-Source: The core logic for CPR and EMA crossovers is presented open-source, ensuring transparency and user adaptability.
Advanced Logic Integration: This indicator implements custom calculations and filtering, optimizing entry and exit signals by merging VWAP, CPR, and EMA in a logical and user-friendly manner.
Chart Requirements:
For best results, use MERCURY on a clean chart without additional indicators. The default settings are optimized for simplicity and clarity, so avoid cluttering the chart with other tools unless necessary.
Timeframes: MERCURY is suitable for timeframes as low as 5&15 minutes for intraday trading and up to daily timeframes for trend analysis.
Symbol Settings: Works well across forex, stocks, and crypto assets. Adjust EMA lengths based on the asset’s volatility.
Example Chart Settings:
Symbol/Timeframe: BTCUSD, 1-hour timeframe (or any symbol as per user preference).
Settings: Default settings for CPR and EMA table.
Chart Style: Clean chart with MERCURY as the primary indicator.
Publishing Considerations:
Invite-Only Access: If setting to invite-only, ensure compliance with the Vendor requirements.
Limit Claims: Avoid making unsubstantiated claims about accuracy, as MERCURY should be viewed as a tool to aid analysis, not as a guaranteed performance predictor.
Example Strategy
This indicator provides signals primarily for trend-following and reversal strategies:
1. Trend Continuation:
- Buy Signal: When the price crosses above both EMA1 and EMA2 and holds above the daily CPR level, a bullish trend continuation is confirmed.
- Sell Signal: When the price crosses below both EMA1 and EMA2 and holds below the daily CPR level, a bearish trend continuation is confirmed.
2. Reversal at Pivot Levels:
- If the price approaches a resistance (R1, R2, or R3) from below with an uptrend and then begins to cross under EMA1 or EMA2, it may signal a bearish reversal.
- If the price approaches a support (S1, S2, or S3) from above in a downtrend and then crosses above EMA1 or EMA2, it may signal a bullish reversal.
Example Setup
- Long Entry
- When the price crosses above the daily pivot point and closes above both EMA1 and EMA2.
- Hold the position if the price remains above the VWAP band and monitor for any EMA crossunder as an exit signal.
- Short Entry:
- When the price drops below the daily pivot and both EMA1 and EMA2 cross under the price.
- Consider covering the position if the price breaks above the VWAP band or if a crossover of EMA1 and EMA2 occurs.
Alerts
Alerts are customizable based on EMA1 & EMA2 crossovers to notify the trader of potential trend shifts.
Pivot Points StrategyTrade Entry Logic
Long Entry: The strategy enters a long position when the price crosses above the primary pivot level (P). This crossover indicates a potential uptrend or bullish momentum.
Short Entry: The strategy enters a short position when the price crosses below the primary pivot level (P). This crossunder suggests bearish momentum or a potential downtrend.
Trade Exit Logic
Long Exit: If a long position is active and the price reaches or exceeds R4, the strategy will exit the long position. R4 serves as an upper target, signaling that the bullish momentum might be losing steam.
Short Exit: If a short position is active and the price reaches or falls below S4, the strategy exits the short position. S4 is used as a target for short positions, indicating that downward momentum may be weakening.
Alerts
The strategy includes alerts for exits:
When a long position exits at R4, an alert is triggered with the message "Exit Long Trade at R4."
When a short position exits at S4, an alert is triggered with the message "Exit Short Trade at S4."
Strategy Rationale
This strategy is based on the concept that certain price levels act as psychological boundaries where price may reverse, pause, or breakout significantly. By using Camarilla pivots, the strategy aims to capture moves within strong support and resistance boundaries, providing guidance on entry and exit points.

VolWRSI### Description of the `VolWRSI` Script
The `VolWRSI` script is a TradingView Pine Script indicator designed to provide a volume-weighted Relative Strength Index (RSI) combined with abnormal activity detection in both volume and price. This multi-faceted approach aims to enhance trading decisions by identifying potential market conditions influenced by both price movements and trading volume.
#### Key Features
1. **Volume-Weighted RSI Calculation**:
- The core of the script calculates a volume-weighted RSI, which gives more significance to price movements associated with higher volume. This helps traders understand the strength of price movements more accurately.
2. **Abnormal Activity Detection**:
- The script includes calculations for abnormal volume and price changes using standard deviation (SD) multiples. This feature alerts traders to potential unusual activity, which could indicate upcoming volatility or market manipulation.
3. **Market Structure Filtering**:
- The script assesses market structure by identifying pivot highs and lows, allowing for better contextual analysis of price movements. This includes identifying bearish and bullish divergences, which can signal potential reversals.
4. **Color-Coded Signals**:
- The indicator visually represents market conditions using different bar colors for various scenarios, such as bearish divergence, likely price manipulation, and high-risk moves on low volume. This allows traders to quickly assess market conditions at a glance.
5. **Conditional Signal Line**:
- The signal line is displayed only when institutional activity conditions are met, remaining hidden otherwise. This adds an extra layer of filtering to prevent unnecessary signals, focusing only on significant market moves.
6. **Overbought and Oversold Levels**:
- The script defines overbought and oversold thresholds, enhancing the trader's ability to spot potential reversal points. Color gradients help visually distinguish between these critical levels.
7. **Alerts**:
- The script includes customizable alert conditions for various market signals, including abnormal volume spikes and RSI crossings over specific thresholds. This keeps traders informed in real-time, enhancing their ability to act promptly.
#### Benefits of Using the `VolWRSI` Script
- **Enhanced Decision-Making**: By integrating volume into the RSI calculation, the script helps traders make more informed decisions based on the strength of price movements rather than price alone.
- **Early Detection of Market Manipulation**: The abnormal activity detection can help traders identify potentially manipulative market behavior, allowing them to act or adjust their strategies accordingly.
- **Visual Clarity**: The use of color-coding and graphical elements (such as shapes and fills) provides clear visual cues about market conditions, which can be especially beneficial for traders who rely on quick visual assessments.
- **Risk Management**: The identification of high-risk low-volume moves helps traders manage their exposure better, potentially avoiding trades that may lead to unfavorable outcomes.
- **Reduced Noise with Institutional Activity Filtering**: The conditional signal line only plots when institutional activity conditions are detected, providing higher confidence in signals by excluding lower-conviction setups.
- **Customization**: With adjustable parameters for length, thresholds, and colors, traders can tailor the script to their specific trading styles and preferences.
Overall, the `VolWRSI` script combines technical analysis tools in a coherent framework, aiming to provide traders with deeper insights into market dynamics and higher-quality trade signals, potentially leading to more profitable trading decisions.
Delta Volume-ATR ChangeDelta Volume-ATR Change Indicator
The Delta Volume-ATR Change Indicator is designed to analyze the effectiveness of volume in relation to price volatility by comparing the percentage change in volume with the percentage change in ATR over the last two bars. This indicator provides insights into how volume changes impact price movement, allowing traders to gauge the strength or weakness of market momentum based on volume efficiency.
Formula:
% Volume Change = (Volume - Volume ) / Volume * 100
% ATR Change = (ATR - ATR ) / ATR * 100
Delta = % Volume Change - % ATR Change
The result, Delta, shows the difference between the volume change and ATR change, with positive delta indicating a stronger volume impact and negative delta suggesting weaker volume support relative to price movement.
Features:
Multiple Display Styles: Choose from three visualization styles — Histogram, Line, or Columns — to display delta values in a way that best fits your analysis style.
Delta Smoothing: The smoothed Delta line (using an SMA with customizable length) provides a clearer trend of volume efficiency over time.
Color Coding: Delta bars change color based on direction — green for positive values and red for negative, allowing for quick visual assessment of volume effectiveness.
Applications:
Identify market conditions where high volume is driving price effectively (positive Delta).
Detect instances of low volume efficiency, where price changes may not be fully supported by volume (negative Delta).
Useful for short-term and swing traders looking to understand volume patterns in relation to volatility.
This indicator is a valuable tool for traders seeking to gain insights into volume and volatility interplay, helping improve timing and reliability in market entries and exits.
Daily Structure Cycles - Session - PDH/PDLDescription:
The Session Windows indicator visualizes predefined trading sessions on the chart, highlighting key price ranges with customizable background colors and labels. Designed to track session-specific high and low levels, this tool provides visual guidance for analyzing market behavior across different trading windows. It includes three customizable sessions—Asian, Window 1, and Window 2—that can be toggled on or off.
How It Works:
Each session is marked with a colored box, representing the high and low range for that session. Border colors and box transparency can be customized, allowing for easy visual differentiation.
The indicator also displays the high and low levels of the previous day, marked as PDH (Previous Day High) and PDL (Previous Day Low). When the current price crosses these levels, the line style changes, signaling potential support or resistance levels.
Labels for each session high and low are positioned based on the user-defined offset and alignment options, providing easy-to-read markers at the end of each session.
Usage: This indicator helps traders observe price behavior within distinct trading sessions and how the current price interacts with previous day’s highs and lows, which may offer insight into support/resistance zones. Traders can use this tool to spot breakout or reversal points as price moves through session highs/lows or crosses the previous day’s levels.
Customization Options:
Session Settings: Choose session times for Asian, Window 1, and Window 2.
Color Settings: Set different colors for session background and border lines.
Label Positioning: Adjust label offset and vertical position for high/low markers.
PDH/PDL Levels: Toggle lines for previous day’s high and low, with color and line style options.
Limitations: This indicator is designed for visualization purposes and is best used alongside other tools for confirmation, as it does not provide standalone buy or sell signals.

Example Trading Strategy Using This Indicator
To effectively use this indicator as part of your trading strategy, follow these detailed steps:
Setup:
Timeframe : Select a timeframe that aligns with your trading style (e.g., 15-minute for intraday, 1-hour for swing trading, or daily for longer-term positions).
Indicator Settings : Customize the Stochastic RSI, RSI, and MACD parameters to suit your trading approach. Adjust overbought/oversold levels to match your risk tolerance.
Strategy:
1. Strong Buy Entry Criteria :
Wait for a strong buy signal (green label) when the RSI is at or below the oversold level (e.g., ≤ 35), indicating a deeply oversold market. Confirm that the MACD shows a decreasing trend (bearish momentum weakening) to validate a potential reversal. Ensure the current candle is green (close > open) if candle color confirmation is enabled.
Example Use : On a 1-hour chart, if the RSI drops below 35, MACD shows three consecutive bars of decreasing negative momentum, and a green candle forms, enter a buy position. This setup signals a robust entry with strong momentum backing it.
2. Weak Buy Entry Criteria :
Monitor for weak buy signals (blue label) when RSI is above the oversold level but still below the neutral (e.g., between 36 and 50). This indicates a market recovering from an oversold state but not fully reversing yet. These signals can be used for early entries with additional confirmations, such as support levels or higher timeframe trends.
Example Use : On the same 1-hour chart, if RSI is at 45, the MACD shows momentum stabilizing (not necessarily negative), and a green candle appears, consider a partial or cautious entry. Use this as an early warning for a potential bullish move, especially when higher timeframe indicators align.
3. Strong Sell Entry Criteria :
Look for a strong sell signal (red label) when RSI is at or above the overbought level (e.g., ≥ 65), signaling a strong overbought condition. The MACD should show three consecutive bars of increasing positive momentum to indicate that the bullish trend is weakening. Ensure the current candle is red (close < open) if candle color confirmation is enabled.
Example Use : If RSI reaches 70, MACD shows increasing momentum that starts to level off, and a red candle forms on a 1-hour chart, initiate a short position with a stop loss set above recent resistance. This is a high-confidence signal for potential price reversal or pullback.
4. Weak Sell Entry Criteria :
Use weak sell signals (orange label) when RSI is between the neutral and overbought levels (e.g., between 50 and 64). These can indicate potential short opportunities that might not yet be fully mature but are worth monitoring. Look for other confirmations like resistance levels or trendline touches to strengthen the signal.
Example Use : If RSI reads 60 on a 1-hour chart, and the MACD shows slight positive momentum with signs of slowing down, place a cautious sell position or scale out of existing long positions. This setup allows you to prepare for a possible downtrend.
Trade Management:
Stop Loss : For buy trades, place stop losses below recent swing lows. For sell trades, set stops above recent swing highs to manage risk effectively.
Take Profit : Target nearby resistance or support levels, apply risk-to-reward ratios (e.g., 1:2), or use trailing stops to lock in profits as price moves in your favor.
Confirmation : Align these signals with broader trends on higher timeframes. For example, if you receive a weak buy signal on a 15-minute chart, check the 1-hour or daily chart to ensure the overall trend is not bearish.
Real-World Example: Imagine trading on a 15-minute chart :
For a buy:
A strong buy signal (green) appears when the RSI dips to 32, MACD shows declining bearish momentum, and a green candle forms. Enter a buy position with a stop loss below the most recent support level.
Alternatively, a weak buy signal (blue) appears when RSI is at 47. Use this as a signal to start monitoring the market closely or enter a smaller position if other indicators (like support and volume analysis) align.
For a sell:
A strong sell signal (red) with RSI at 72 and a red candle signals to short with conviction. Place your stop loss just above the last peak.
A weak sell signal (orange) with RSI at 62 might prompt caution but can still be acted on if confirmed by declining volume or touching a resistance level.
These strategies show how to blend both strong and weak signals into your trading for more nuanced decision-making.
Technical Analysis of the Code
1. Stochastic RSI Calculation:
The script calculates the Stochastic RSI (stochRsiK) using the RSI as input and smooths it with a moving average (stochRsiD).
Code Explanation : ta.stoch(rsi, rsi, rsi, stochLength) computes the Stochastic RSI, and ta.sma(stochRsiK, stochSmoothing) applies smoothing.
2. RSI Calculation :
The RSI is computed over a user-defined period and checks for overbought or oversold conditions.
Code Explanation : rsi = ta.rsi(close, rsiLength) calculates RSI values.
3. MACD Trend Filter :
MACD is calculated with fast, slow, and signal lengths, identifying trends via three consecutive bars moving in the same direction.
Code Explanation : = ta.macd(close, macdLengthFast, macdLengthSlow, macdSignalLength) sets MACD values. Conditions like macdLine < macdLine confirm trends.
4. Buy and Sell Conditions :
The script checks Stochastic RSI, RSI, and MACD values to set buy/sell flags. Candle color filters further confirm valid entries.
Code Explanation : buyConditionMet and sellConditionMet logically check all conditions and toggles (enableStochCondition, enableRSICondition, etc.).
5. Signal Flags and Confirmation :
Flags track when conditions are met and ensure signals only appear on appropriate candle colors.
Code Explanation : Conditional blocks (if statements) update buyFlag and sellFlag.
6. Labels and Alerts :
The indicator plots "BUY" or "SELL" labels with the RSI value when signals trigger and sets alerts through alertcondition().
Code Explanation : label.new() displays the signal, color-coded for strength based on RSI.
NOTE : All strategies can be enabled or disabled in the settings, allowing traders to customize the indicator to their preferences and trading styles.
Volume Profile Heatmap 2.0The "Enhanced Volume Profile Heatmap" is a powerful Pine Script indicator designed for advanced volume analysis on TradingView charts. It creates a dynamic heatmap of volume distribution across a defined price range, enabling traders to pinpoint significant trading levels and understand price action more deeply.
Key Features:
Configurable Parameters:
Number of Bins (numBins): Defines the resolution of the heatmap by dividing the price range into multiple levels. More bins provide higher granularity.
Lookback Period (lookback): Sets the historical period over which the volume profile is calculated.
Price Range Calculation:
Calculates the highest and lowest prices over the lookback period, defining the boundaries for volume distribution.
Volume Allocation Across Price Levels:
The price range is divided into "bins" where each bin represents a specific price level.
For each price within the lookback period, the corresponding volume is allocated to its bin, building a comprehensive distribution of volume per price level.
Volume Normalization and Heatmap Visualization:
Volume for each bin is normalized based on the highest volume bin, creating a gradient effect to visually represent high and low-volume areas.
A heatmap color scheme is applied, where low volume appears redder and high volume appears greener, emphasizing critical price levels.
Visual Representation:
Each bin’s volume is depicted as a horizontal line with varying color intensity, creating a heatmap effect directly over the price chart.
Purpose:
The Enhanced Volume Profile Heatmap is ideal for traders looking to identify high-activity trading zones, which often act as strong support or resistance. By visualizing where trading activity concentrates, users can gain insights into potential areas of interest, allowing for more informed entry and exit decisions.
This indicator is a unique tool for volume-based analysis, helping traders understand underlying market sentiment and positioning across different price levels in a clear, intuitive way.

🔶 Understanding GEX (Gamma Exposure) and Gamma Profiling
Gamma Exposure (GEX) is a crucial concept in options trading because it reveals how options market positions can influence the dynamics of asset prices. In essence, GEX measures the collective gamma exposure of options market participants, impacting overall market stability and price movements.
🔹 What is GEX?
At its core, GEX captures the aggregate impact of gamma, a key options Greek, which tells us how an option's delta changes in response to price movements in the underlying asset. Positive or negative GEX levels can reflect the collective bullish or bearish stance of the market:
Positive GEX (far above HVL) : Indicates a net bullish positioning by options holders. When GEX is strongly positive, it suggests that as the asset price increases, market participants might need to buy more of the asset to maintain their hedges. This behavior can fuel further upward momentum.
Negative GEX (far below HVL) : Implies a net bearish positioning. In a strongly negative GEX environment, declines in the asset's price might prompt participants to sell, potentially exacerbating the downward movement.
🔹 The Influence of GEX on Strike Prices and Expiration
A unique feature of GEX is its impact near expiration dates. As options approach expiration, GEX levels can “pin” the price to specific strike levels, where options positions are concentrated. This pinning effect arises as market makers adjust their hedging strategies, often causing the asset price to gravitate towards certain strike prices, where a large volume of options contracts sits.
🟨 Overview of our GEX Calculation Models for Options Traders 🟨
Our GEX indicator models were developed with serious options traders in mind, providing flexibility beyond typical GEX providers. We know that using GEX levels for multi-leg strategies, where the underlying doesn't need a strong trend to be profitable , calls for a nuanced approach that aligns with different trading horizons. Here’s a detailed breakdown of our GEX calculation models and how they support strategic trading across varying timeframes.
Thus, the HVL an orher CALL/PUT WALLS depends on the indicator's selected calculation mode and expiration. The NETGEX profile of the chosen expiration appears on the HVL line , which automatically updates five times during trading hours , except for 0DTE, which reflects the value set at market open.
🔶 Cumulative Expiration (⅀) Calculation Method
This method aggregates GEX data for all expirations up to the selected date , giving you a more comprehensive view of market dynamics. We recommend using this method, as it allows you to see how combined expirations impact GEX levels, which can be critical when setting up trades with a longer time horizon.
🔶 Selected Alone (⊙) Calculation Method
This option displays the GEX profile specific to only the chosen expiration , providing a unique, time-bound view. This approach is ideal for those seeking precise insight into how an individual expiration is performing without the broader context of other expirations.
🔶 Example of using calculation methods:
With options trading, especially for multi-leg strategies, choosing the right expiration and calculation model is crucial. Let’s break down an example:
Suppose you’re considering a Friday (4DTE) front-leg diagonal on the SPX at the start of the week. In this case, the focus isn’t strictly on any single expiration (like 0DTE or 4DTE individually), but rather on what might happen cumulatively by Friday across all expirations . Here, the Cumulative Expiration (⅀) model comes into play, as it shows you an aggregated view of the GEX profile, factoring in all strikes and legs for all expirations leading up to the selected date.
For most use cases, we recommend setting your indicator to the Cumulative (⅀) model , which provides a broad and insightful look at GEX levels across multiple expirations. However, you can always switch to Selected Alone (⊙) for targeted analysis of an individual expiration. Remember, 0DTE defaults to “Selected Alone”, and Every Expiry always shows a cumulative value by default.

🟦 HVL (High Volatility Level) 🟦
Also known as the Gamma FLIP level or Zero Gamma , it represents the price level at which the gamma environment transitions from positive to negative or vice versa. The High Volatility Level (HVL) is a critical point for understanding gamma shifts and anticipating volatility. This shift influences how market makers hedge their positions, potentially increasing or dampening market volatility.
🔷 Understanding the Gamma Flip and HVL
At its core, the gamma flip represents the point where market makers may transition from a net positive to a net negative gamma position, or the reverse. When prices move above HVL, gamma is positive, often leading to lower volatility due to the stabilizing effects of market makers’ hedging. Conversely, when prices drop below HVL, gamma flips negative, and hedging by market makers can amplify volatility as they trade with the direction of price movements.
The HVL (High Volatility Level) is particularly important as it signals a shift in the impact of price movements on the GEX profile. Using the cumulative calculation mode, GEX values are aggregated across all strikes and expirations up to the selected expiration, helping to pinpoint the point where the GEX curve's slope changes from negative to positive.
🔷 Implications for Traders and Market Makers
For market makers, crossing below HVL into a negative gamma zone means that they hedge in the same direction as price movements, potentially amplifying volatility. For traders, understanding HVL's role is essential to choosing strategies that align with the prevailing volatility regime:
Positive GEX 🟢:
Above HVL, where GEX is positive, market makers hedge by buying stocks as prices fall and selling as prices rise. This has a stabilizing effect, creating a lower-volatility environment.
Negative GEX 🔴:
Below HVL, where GEX is negative, market makers' hedging aligns with price movements, increasing volatility. Here, they buy as prices rise and sell as they fall, reinforcing price direction.
🔷 HVL as a Momentum and Volatility Indicator
The HVL offers traders insight into potential shifts in market momentum. For example, above HVL, if the price increases, Net GEX also rises, which stabilizes prices as market makers hedge in opposition to price direction. Below HVL, however, a price rise decreases Net GEX, creating conditions where market makers’ hedging amplifies price movements, resulting in a more volatile environment.
HVL also acts as a significant support level, often preceding put supports. If the price falls below this level, traders may expect heightened volatility and increased bearish sentiment.
Knowing the location of HVL is vital for positioning yourself on the right side of volatility. By monitoring the HVL, traders can better anticipate shifts in sentiment and align strategies with prevailing market dynamics.

🟩 Call Resistance and Call Wall Levels 🟩
In options trading, understanding GEX levels like Call Resistance and Call Wall levels is crucial for navigating potential price inflection points. Our indicator provides these levels directly on your chart, allowing you to customize and optimize your trading approach. Here’s a detailed guide to help you understand and use Call Resistance and additional Call Wall levels effectively.
🟢 Call Resistance Level
The Call Resistance Level is a key point where our model indicates heightened Call GEX concentration. This level serves as a potential resistance area where price movement may face a barrier, slowing or even reversing before a breakout. Here’s how the Call Resistance Level can influence market behavior:
Resistance and Price Reversal ⬇️ : Similar to the Put Support level, the Call Resistance acts as a "sticky" price level, where upward movement encounters resistance. When the price approaches this level, it’s common for market makers to begin shorting to maintain delta neutrality. This shorting activity, combined with the potential monetization of calls, introduces a technical bearish force in the short term, often causing the price to bounce downward.
Upside Acceleration Point ⬆️ : If investors reposition calls to higher strikes as the price reaches Call Resistance, this level can roll up, allowing the price to push upward and potentially accelerating the rally. This effect can drive the market to higher levels as market makers adjust their positions accordingly.
🟢 Additional Call Wall Levels
Our model identifies the second and third-highest Call GEX levels, known as additional Call Walls. These levels are often secondary resistance points but hold significance as they add layers of possible resistance or breakout points. They offer similar potential as the primary Call Resistance level, acting as either:
Resistance Zones: Slowing the price momentum as it approaches these levels.
Inflection Points for Upside Momentum: Allowing for a possible continuation of upward movement if prices break through.
🟢 How to Trade the Call Resistance Level
To use the Call Resistance level effectively, look for possible price rejections or consolidations as the price approaches this zone. Here are the main scenarios:
Bounce to Downside: As the price nears the Call Resistance level, market makers’ delta-hedging activity (through shorting) can turn this level into a short-term bearish force, leading to price pullbacks.
Rolling the Position: For bulls, a key objective at the Call Resistance level is to see investors roll their call positions higher, effectively moving the resistance up. This repositioning may lead to incremental price gains as the Call Resistance level rises with each roll.

🟥 Put Support and Put Wall Levels 🟥
In options trading, understanding GEX levels like Put Support and secondary Put Wall levels is essential for managing potential price support points and gauging downside risk. Our indicator places these levels directly on your chart, allowing for customization to enhance your trading strategy. Here’s a detailed guide to help you leverage the Put Support and additional Put Wall levels effectively.
🔴 Put Support Level
The Put Support Level is a key zone where our model shows the highest concentration of negative GEX, representing an area with substantial put option interest. This level functions as a potential support zone, where price may stabilize or bounce upward, or as an inflection point, signaling increased downside momentum. Here’s how the Put Support Level can affect market behavior:
Support and Price Reversal🔺 : Similar to how Call Resistance operates on the upside, the Put Support Level often acts as a "sticky" level on the downside, where price finds support. As the asset price moves closer to this level, market makers begin adjusting their positions, frequently buying to maintain delta neutrality. This activity can create a temporary short squeeze, pushing prices back up.
Downside Acceleration Point 🔻 : If the asset continues moving lower, triggering more hedging activity, this level can become a tipping point for accelerated downside momentum.
🔴 Additional Put Wall Levels
Our model also identifies the second and third-highest negative GEX levels, known as secondary Put Walls. These levels are often seen as secondary support points and hold significance by adding layers of support or potential downside inflection points. Like the primary Put Support Level, they can act in two ways:
Support Zones: Helping slow price declines as they approach these levels.
Downside Inflection Points: Allowing further price decline if the support fails.
🔴 How Investors Hedge with Put Options
Investors commonly use put options to hedge long positions and protect portfolios, especially during times of market stress when implied volatility rises. This demand for puts increases the Put Skew, as market makers short to remain delta hedged.
As prices approach the Put Support Level, the hedging activity often intensifies because more puts become At the Money (ATM) or In the Money (ITM). To realize the value of their hedges, investors typically monetize these puts at this level, triggering the closing of short positions by market makers and resulting in a price bounce.
🔴 The Role of Implied Volatility
Implied Volatility (IV) is also a critical factor since it directly influences market flows. If IV driving put flows decreases, market makers may buy back shorts, which contributes to the bounce at the Put Support Level. Additionally, another Greek, Vanna—representing changes in delta due to IV shifts—plays a vital role here. As IV changes, Vanna affects delta-hedging adjustments, adding a layer of complexity to understanding market makers' actions around these support levels.
🔴 Possible Price Scenarios at the Put Support Level
When the price reaches the Put Support Level, there are generally two scenarios:
Bounce to Upside🔺 : The Put Support Level is where substantial put hedging activity happens. As prices approach, market makers adjust their delta by buying, which can push prices back up.
Roll Positions🔻 : After monetizing puts, investors have two options: roll hedges to higher strikes if they expect a bullish move, or open new out-of-the-money puts at lower strikes. If new hedges are set at lower levels, the Put Support level may also shift lower, creating a new bearish force as market makers begin hedging these new positions.
🟨 Customizing Put Support/Call Resistance and Put/Call Wall Levels on Your Chart
Our indicator settings provide extensive customization options for displaying Put Support, Call Resistance, and Put/Call Wall levels.
You can:
adjust the depth to highlight the highest positive or negative NETGEX levels
choose to display relative data, show only the colored strike line
adjust the offset for enhanced visibility.
This flexibility helps you focus on the critical details that best align with your trading strategy, ensuring a clearer and more tailored view of the GEX levels on your chart.
Currently, we examine the top three levels with the highest positive and negative NETGEX values, allowing you to view seven key GEX levels on your chart (3 Call + 1 HVL + 3 Put). However, in the near future, we plan to expand this to seven levels per side, resulting in a total of up to 15 significant GEX levels on the chart instead of the current 7. This enhancement will cater to all needs, especially benefiting 0DTE traders.

🔶 ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT COMMENTS
🔹- Why is there a slight difference between the displayed data and other GEX provider's data like MenthorQ, GammaEdge, SpotGamma, GEXBot, etc?
There are two reasons for this, and one is beyond our control:
🔹 (1) Option-data update frequency:
According to TradingView's regulations and guidelines, we can update external data a maximum of 5 times per day. We strive to use these updates in the most optimal way:
(1st update) 15 minutes after U.S. market open
(2nd, 3rd, 4th updates) 1.5–3 hours during U.S. market open hours
(5th update) 10 minutes before U.S. market close.
You don’t need to refresh your window; our latest refreshed data pack is always automatically applied to your indicator. You can see the time elapsed since the last update by hovering over the HVL.
🔹 (2) GEX Levels with Intraday Updates Based on Price Movements
The TanukiTrade Options GEX Indicator for TradingView provides open interest data with a 15-minute delay after the market opens. Using this data, we calculate and update the relevant levels throughout the trading day, reflecting almost real-time price changes and gamma values. Unlike other GEX providers, who set their GEX levels solely at market open without further updates, we dynamically adjust our levels intraday to capture significant price shifts.
🔹 Automatic & Seamless Intraday Updates and Special Cases
For our indicator, the HVL (High Volatility Level) reflects the selected calculation mode and expiration. We update these NETGEX profiles five times throughout the trading day, with one exception: 0DTE data, which is set at market open and does not update intraday due to the rapid narrowing of gamma levels . Note that similar to other GEX providers, our 0DTE remains fixed at open, while cumulative values update during the day based on almost real-time market movements.
🔹Consistent SPX 0DTE GEX Levels with Morning Open Interest Updates Only
For SPX, the 0DTE (Zero Days to Expiration) options and GEX levels are calculated based on openinterest data provided by the clearinghouse at market open. Due to the exponential narrowing of gamma levels throughout the day, we do not update these levels intraday, unlike other expirations. Therefore, if you select the expiring contract on that day, you’ll see the exact morning level, as it was calculated at market open. This status is also published the previous evening, based on the data available then, so you can already view the levels for the following day’s 1DTE (next day’s 0DTE) before market close. After market open, around 15 minutes later, this level is updated with the latest open interest data and remains unchanged for the rest of the day. Other providers take a similar approach. We do not support intraday volume-based GEX calculations, as our benchmarks show this can produce misleading results.
Disclaimer:
Our option indicator uses approximately 15min-3 hour delayed option market snapshot data to calculate the main option metrics. Exact realtime option contract prices are never displayed; only derived GEX metrics are shown to ensure accurate and consistent visualization. Due to the above, this indicator can only be used for decision support; exclusive decisions cannot be made based on this indicator. We reserve the right to make errors.This indicator is designed for options traders who understand what they are doing. It assumes that they are familiar with options and can make well-informed, independent decisions. We work with paid delayed data and we are not a data provider; therefore, we do not bear any financial or other liability.

🔶 Understanding GEX (Gamma Exposure) and Gamma Profiling
Gamma Exposure (GEX) is a crucial concept in options trading because it reveals how options market positions can influence the dynamics of asset prices. In essence, GEX measures the collective gamma exposure of options market participants, impacting overall market stability and price movements.
🔹 What is GEX?
At its core, GEX captures the aggregate impact of gamma, a key options Greek, which tells us how an option's delta changes in response to price movements in the underlying asset. Positive or negative GEX levels can reflect the collective bullish or bearish stance of the market:
Positive GEX (far above HVL) : Indicates a net bullish positioning by options holders. When GEX is strongly positive, it suggests that as the asset price increases, market participants might need to buy more of the asset to maintain their hedges. This behavior can fuel further upward momentum.
Negative GEX (far below HVL) : Implies a net bearish positioning. In a strongly negative GEX environment, declines in the asset's price might prompt participants to sell, potentially exacerbating the downward movement.
🔹 The Influence of GEX on Strike Prices and Expiration
A unique feature of GEX is its impact near expiration dates. As options approach expiration, GEX levels can “pin” the price to specific strike levels, where options positions are concentrated. This pinning effect arises as market makers adjust their hedging strategies, often causing the asset price to gravitate towards certain strike prices, where a large volume of options contracts sits.
🟨 Overview of our GEX Calculation Models for Options Traders 🟨
Our GEX indicator models were developed with serious options traders in mind, providing flexibility beyond typical GEX providers. We know that using GEX levels for multi-leg strategies, where the underlying doesn't need a strong trend to be profitable , calls for a nuanced approach that aligns with different trading horizons. Here’s a detailed breakdown of our GEX calculation models and how they support strategic trading across varying timeframes.
Thus, the HVL an orher CALL/PUT WALLS depends on the indicator's selected calculation mode and expiration. The NETGEX profile of the chosen expiration appears on the HVL line , which automatically updates five times during trading hours , except for 0DTE, which reflects the value set at market open.
🔶 Cumulative Expiration (⅀) Calculation Method
This method aggregates GEX data for all expirations up to the selected date , giving you a more comprehensive view of market dynamics. We recommend using this method, as it allows you to see how combined expirations impact GEX levels, which can be critical when setting up trades with a longer time horizon.
🔶 Selected Alone (⊙) Calculation Method
This option displays the GEX profile specific to only the chosen expiration , providing a unique, time-bound view. This approach is ideal for those seeking precise insight into how an individual expiration is performing without the broader context of other expirations.
🔶 Example of using calculation methods:
With options trading, especially for multi-leg strategies, choosing the right expiration and calculation model is crucial. Let’s break down an example:
Suppose you’re considering a Friday (4DTE) front-leg diagonal on the SPX at the start of the week. In this case, the focus isn’t strictly on any single expiration (like 0DTE or 4DTE individually), but rather on what might happen cumulatively by Friday across all expirations . Here, the Cumulative Expiration (⅀) model comes into play, as it shows you an aggregated view of the GEX profile, factoring in all strikes and legs for all expirations leading up to the selected date.
For most use cases, we recommend setting your indicator to the Cumulative (⅀) model , which provides a broad and insightful look at GEX levels across multiple expirations. However, you can always switch to Selected Alone (⊙) for targeted analysis of an individual expiration. Remember, 0DTE defaults to “Selected Alone”, and Every Expiry always shows a cumulative value by default.

🟦 HVL (High Volatility Level) 🟦
Also known as the Gamma FLIP level or Zero Gamma , it represents the price level at which the gamma environment transitions from positive to negative or vice versa. The High Volatility Level (HVL) is a critical point for understanding gamma shifts and anticipating volatility. This shift influences how market makers hedge their positions, potentially increasing or dampening market volatility.
🔷 Understanding the Gamma Flip and HVL
At its core, the gamma flip represents the point where market makers may transition from a net positive to a net negative gamma position, or the reverse. When prices move above HVL, gamma is positive, often leading to lower volatility due to the stabilizing effects of market makers’ hedging. Conversely, when prices drop below HVL, gamma flips negative, and hedging by market makers can amplify volatility as they trade with the direction of price movements.
The HVL (High Volatility Level) is particularly important as it signals a shift in the impact of price movements on the GEX profile. Using the cumulative calculation mode, GEX values are aggregated across all strikes and expirations up to the selected expiration, helping to pinpoint the point where the GEX curve's slope changes from negative to positive.
🔷 Implications for Traders and Market Makers
For market makers, crossing below HVL into a negative gamma zone means that they hedge in the same direction as price movements, potentially amplifying volatility. For traders, understanding HVL's role is essential to choosing strategies that align with the prevailing volatility regime:
Positive GEX 🟢:
Above HVL, where GEX is positive, market makers hedge by buying stocks as prices fall and selling as prices rise. This has a stabilizing effect, creating a lower-volatility environment.
Negative GEX 🔴:
Below HVL, where GEX is negative, market makers' hedging aligns with price movements, increasing volatility. Here, they buy as prices rise and sell as they fall, reinforcing price direction.
🔷 HVL as a Momentum and Volatility Indicator
The HVL offers traders insight into potential shifts in market momentum. For example, above HVL, if the price increases, Net GEX also rises, which stabilizes prices as market makers hedge in opposition to price direction. Below HVL, however, a price rise decreases Net GEX, creating conditions where market makers’ hedging amplifies price movements, resulting in a more volatile environment.
HVL also acts as a significant support level, often preceding put supports. If the price falls below this level, traders may expect heightened volatility and increased bearish sentiment.
Knowing the location of HVL is vital for positioning yourself on the right side of volatility. By monitoring the HVL, traders can better anticipate shifts in sentiment and align strategies with prevailing market dynamics.

🟩 Call Resistance and Call Wall Levels 🟩
In options trading, understanding GEX levels like Call Resistance and Call Wall levels is crucial for navigating potential price inflection points. Our indicator provides these levels directly on your chart, allowing you to customize and optimize your trading approach. Here’s a detailed guide to help you understand and use Call Resistance and additional Call Wall levels effectively.
🟢 Call Resistance Level
The Call Resistance Level is a key point where our model indicates heightened Call GEX concentration. This level serves as a potential resistance area where price movement may face a barrier, slowing or even reversing before a breakout. Here’s how the Call Resistance Level can influence market behavior:
Resistance and Price Reversal ⬇️ : Similar to the Put Support level, the Call Resistance acts as a "sticky" price level, where upward movement encounters resistance. When the price approaches this level, it’s common for market makers to begin shorting to maintain delta neutrality. This shorting activity, combined with the potential monetization of calls, introduces a technical bearish force in the short term, often causing the price to bounce downward.
Upside Acceleration Point ⬆️ : If investors reposition calls to higher strikes as the price reaches Call Resistance, this level can roll up, allowing the price to push upward and potentially accelerating the rally. This effect can drive the market to higher levels as market makers adjust their positions accordingly.
🟢 Additional Call Wall Levels
Our model identifies the second and third-highest Call GEX levels, known as additional Call Walls. These levels are often secondary resistance points but hold significance as they add layers of possible resistance or breakout points. They offer similar potential as the primary Call Resistance level, acting as either:
Resistance Zones: Slowing the price momentum as it approaches these levels.
Inflection Points for Upside Momentum: Allowing for a possible continuation of upward movement if prices break through.
🟢 How to Trade the Call Resistance Level
To use the Call Resistance level effectively, look for possible price rejections or consolidations as the price approaches this zone. Here are the main scenarios:
Bounce to Downside: As the price nears the Call Resistance level, market makers’ delta-hedging activity (through shorting) can turn this level into a short-term bearish force, leading to price pullbacks.
Rolling the Position: For bulls, a key objective at the Call Resistance level is to see investors roll their call positions higher, effectively moving the resistance up. This repositioning may lead to incremental price gains as the Call Resistance level rises with each roll.

🟥 Put Support and Put Wall Levels 🟥
In options trading, understanding GEX levels like Put Support and secondary Put Wall levels is essential for managing potential price support points and gauging downside risk. Our indicator places these levels directly on your chart, allowing for customization to enhance your trading strategy. Here’s a detailed guide to help you leverage the Put Support and additional Put Wall levels effectively.
🔴 Put Support Level
The Put Support Level is a key zone where our model shows the highest concentration of negative GEX, representing an area with substantial put option interest. This level functions as a potential support zone, where price may stabilize or bounce upward, or as an inflection point, signaling increased downside momentum. Here’s how the Put Support Level can affect market behavior:
Support and Price Reversal🔺 : Similar to how Call Resistance operates on the upside, the Put Support Level often acts as a "sticky" level on the downside, where price finds support. As the asset price moves closer to this level, market makers begin adjusting their positions, frequently buying to maintain delta neutrality. This activity can create a temporary short squeeze, pushing prices back up.
Downside Acceleration Point 🔻 : If the asset continues moving lower, triggering more hedging activity, this level can become a tipping point for accelerated downside momentum.
🔴 Additional Put Wall Levels
Our model also identifies the second and third-highest negative GEX levels, known as secondary Put Walls. These levels are often seen as secondary support points and hold significance by adding layers of support or potential downside inflection points. Like the primary Put Support Level, they can act in two ways:
Support Zones: Helping slow price declines as they approach these levels.
Downside Inflection Points: Allowing further price decline if the support fails.
🔴 How Investors Hedge with Put Options
Investors commonly use put options to hedge long positions and protect portfolios, especially during times of market stress when implied volatility rises. This demand for puts increases the Put Skew, as market makers short to remain delta hedged.
As prices approach the Put Support Level, the hedging activity often intensifies because more puts become At the Money (ATM) or In the Money (ITM). To realize the value of their hedges, investors typically monetize these puts at this level, triggering the closing of short positions by market makers and resulting in a price bounce.
🔴 The Role of Implied Volatility
Implied Volatility (IV) is also a critical factor since it directly influences market flows. If IV driving put flows decreases, market makers may buy back shorts, which contributes to the bounce at the Put Support Level. Additionally, another Greek, Vanna—representing changes in delta due to IV shifts—plays a vital role here. As IV changes, Vanna affects delta-hedging adjustments, adding a layer of complexity to understanding market makers' actions around these support levels.
🔴 Possible Price Scenarios at the Put Support Level
When the price reaches the Put Support Level, there are generally two scenarios:
Bounce to Upside🔺 : The Put Support Level is where substantial put hedging activity happens. As prices approach, market makers adjust their delta by buying, which can push prices back up.
Roll Positions🔻 : After monetizing puts, investors have two options: roll hedges to higher strikes if they expect a bullish move, or open new out-of-the-money puts at lower strikes. If new hedges are set at lower levels, the Put Support level may also shift lower, creating a new bearish force as market makers begin hedging these new positions.
🟨 Customizing Put Support/Call Resistance and Put/Call Wall Levels on Your Chart
Our indicator settings provide extensive customization options for displaying Put Support, Call Resistance, and Put/Call Wall levels.
You can:
adjust the depth to highlight the highest positive or negative NETGEX levels
choose to display relative data, show only the colored strike line
adjust the offset for enhanced visibility.
This flexibility helps you focus on the critical details that best align with your trading strategy, ensuring a clearer and more tailored view of the GEX levels on your chart.
Currently, we examine the top three levels with the highest positive and negative NETGEX values, allowing you to view seven key GEX levels on your chart (3 Call + 1 HVL + 3 Put). However, in the near future, we plan to expand this to seven levels per side, resulting in a total of up to 15 significant GEX levels on the chart instead of the current 7. This enhancement will cater to all needs, especially benefiting 0DTE traders.

🔶 ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT COMMENTS
🔹- Why is there a slight difference between the displayed data and other GEX provider's data like MenthorQ, GammaEdge, SpotGamma, GEXBot, etc?
There are two reasons for this, and one is beyond our control:
🔹 (1) Option-data update frequency:
According to TradingView's regulations and guidelines, we can update external data a maximum of 5 times per day. We strive to use these updates in the most optimal way:
(1st update) 15 minutes after U.S. market open
(2nd, 3rd, 4th updates) 1.5–3 hours during U.S. market open hours
(5th update) 10 minutes before U.S. market close.
You don’t need to refresh your window; our latest refreshed data pack is always automatically applied to your indicator. You can see the time elapsed since the last update by hovering over the HVL.
🔹 (2) GEX Levels with Intraday Updates Based on Price Movements
The TanukiTrade Options GEX Indicator for TradingView provides open interest data with a 15-minute delay after the market opens. Using this data, we calculate and update the relevant levels throughout the trading day, reflecting almost real-time price changes and gamma values. Unlike other GEX providers, who set their GEX levels solely at market open without further updates, we dynamically adjust our levels intraday to capture significant price shifts.
🔹 Automatic & Seamless Intraday Updates and Special Cases
For our indicator, the HVL (High Volatility Level) reflects the selected calculation mode and expiration. We update these NETGEX profiles five times throughout the trading day, with one exception: 0DTE data, which is set at market open and does not update intraday due to the rapid narrowing of gamma levels . Note that similar to other GEX providers, our 0DTE remains fixed at open, while cumulative values update during the day based on almost real-time market movements.
Disclaimer:
Our option indicator uses approximately 15min-3 hour delayed option market snapshot data to calculate the main option metrics. Exact realtime option contract prices are never displayed; only derived GEX metrics are shown to ensure accurate and consistent visualization. Due to the above, this indicator can only be used for decision support; exclusive decisions cannot be made based on this indicator. We reserve the right to make errors.This indicator is designed for options traders who understand what they are doing. It assumes that they are familiar with options and can make well-informed, independent decisions. We work with paid delayed data and we are not a data provider; therefore, we do not bear any financial or other liability.
