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.

Delta Candle ColorsThe Delta Divergences indicator provides a visual representation of volume delta, which measures the difference between buying pressure and selling pressure within a candle. This is achieved by using intrabar (lower timeframe) volume and price fluctuations to estimate the delta between buying and selling pressure within each bar.
By color-coding candles based on this volume delta, traders can gain insight into the strength behind price movements and spot potential divergences. When a candle closes positively (higher than the previous close) but the volume delta is negative (more selling than buying), or when a candle closes negatively with a positive delta (more buying than selling), it indicates a divergence. These divergences can signal potential trend exhaustion or possible reversals.
The indicator includes custom alerts that notify the trader when these divergences occur:
Positive close with negative delta: Signals that the price is rising, but selling pressure is higher.
Negative close with positive delta: Signals that the price is falling, but buying pressure is higher.
In addition to color-coding candles based on delta, the indicator provides an option to display delta labels directly on the chart for each candle.
Finally, the option to only show divergences can be turned on. When enabled, non-divergent candles are colored normally, while only candles with delta divergences are highlighted, allowing traders to focus on the most relevant market information.
Higher Time Frame Strat [QuantVue]The Higher Time Frame Strat Indicator is a tool that helps traders visualize and analyze price action from a higher timeframe (HTF) on their current chart. It applies the Strat method, a trading strategy focused on identifying key price action setups by observing how current price bars relate to previous ones. This helps in understanding the market's structure and determining potential trading opportunities based on higher timeframe data.
Key Concepts:
Strat Basics:
Type 1 Bar (Inside Bar): The current bar's high is lower than the previous bar's high, and its low is higher than the previous bar's low. This signifies a consolidation, or indecision, as the price is contained within the previous bar's range.
Type 2 Bar (Directional Bar): The current bar either breaks above the previous bar's high (bullish) or stays above the previous bar's low (bearish), indicating a continuation in the price direction.
Type 3 Bar (Outside Bar): The current bar breaks both above the previous bar's high and below the previous bar's low, showing volatility and a potential reversal.
Higher Timeframe Visualization:
The indicator uses a user-defined higher timeframe (default: 1 hour) and plots the last three higher timeframe candles on the current chart.
Strat Classification:
When a new higher timeframe candle forms, the indicator draws a semi-transparent box around the candle's range (high to low), along with the Strat type label. This provides a visual cue to the trader about the structure of the newly formed candle and how it fits into the overall market movement.
The script classifies each higher timeframe candle as one of the Strat types (1, 2, or 3). Based on the relationship between the current candle and the previous candle's high/low, it assigns a label ("1", "2", or "3"), helping traders quickly identify the price action setup on the higher timeframe.
How to Use the Indicator:
Trend Continuation: Look for Type 2 bars, which indicate a continuation in the current trend. For example, a Type 2 up suggests the price is breaking above the previous high, potentially signaling further upward movement.
Reversals: Type 3 bars show increased volatility, where the price breaks both above and below the previous bar's range. This could indicate a reversal, so be prepared for a potential change in direction.
Consolidation: Inside bars (Type 1) signify a tightening range and can signal the beginning of a breakout once the price moves outside of the previous bar's high or low.
By combining these price action concepts with the visualization of higher timeframe data, traders can potentially get earlier entry and exits as a higher timeframe set up forms.
Dynamic Touch Trendlines [QuantVue]The Dynamic Touch Trendlines (DTT) indicator automatically draws and manages trendlines on your chart, helping traders identify key support and resistance levels.
What sets the DTT indicator apart from other trendline indicators is its ability to let traders customize the number of touches required to validate a trendline. This flexibility allows you to fine-tune the indicator for different markets or trading styles, ensuring only strong trendlines with the specified number of touches are considered valid.
This indicator features both uptrend lines (drawn from pivot lows) and downtrend lines (drawn from pivot highs), making it suitable for detecting bullish and bearish trends.
An uptrend line connects three (default setting) or more significant lows, showing where price has historically found support. Traders often look for price to bounce off this line during pullbacks in an uptrend.
When price breaks below an uptrend line, it suggests a weakening of the bullish trend. This could mean that buyers are losing strength, and the market may be transitioning into a bearish phase, providing a potential opportunity for traders to enter short positions or exit long positions.
Conversely, a downtrend line connects three (default setting) or more significant highs, indicating potential resistance in a downtrend. Price action below this line can signal continued bearish momentum.
When price breaks above a downtrend line, it indicates a potential reversal of the bearish trend. This can signal the end of selling pressure and the beginning of a new bullish phase, offering traders a potential opportunity to enter long positions.
Key settings:
Minimum Touches: This sets the number of price touches required to validate a trendline. Increasing the minimum touches filters out weaker trends, ensuring that only more reliable trendlines are drawn.
Buffer: The buffer is used to account for minor price overshoots or near misses relative to the trendline. It creates a margin around the trendline, allowing price to come close to the line—whether it overshoots slightly or falls just short—and still count as a valid touch. This helps ensure that small price fluctuations or market noise don’t prevent valid trendline touches from being recognized, making the trendlines more reliable.
Trendline Break Source: Allows traders to define how a trendline is considered broken—either based on the close of the price bar or the wicks (highs and lows) of the price action.
The DTT indicator also features alerts whenever a new trendline is detected or an existing trendline is broken!
Pivot Data [QuantVue]The Pivot Data Indicator is designed to provide traders with valuable insights by identifying and analyzing pivot points on the price chart. It calculates both pivot highs and lows, then presents detailed statistics on the distance and time between these pivots.
a pivot point is defined as a specific point on the chart where the price either reaches a high or a low, with no bars higher or lower than it for a set number of bars on both sides (left and right). Essentially, it's a local high or low point, with the market moving in the opposite direction after the pivot forms.
For example:
A pivot high occurs when there are no bars with higher prices for a specified number of bars before and after that point.
A pivot low occurs when there are no bars with lower prices for the same number of bars on either side.
The number of bars to the left and right is adjustable via the Pivot Lookback Bars setting, allowing you to define how many bars are used to determine these pivot points.
Key features include:
Pivot Highs and Lows Identification: Automatically marks significant pivot highs and lows based on a user-defined lookback period, helping traders identify potential trend reversals or continuation points.
Prediction Labels: Provides forecasted pivot levels based on historical pivot price and time patterns, with options to show predictions for pivot highs, lows, or any pivot point.
Customizable Table Display: Displays a table summarizing important statistics, such as the average price percentage and the number of bars between pivots, along with the distance and time from the most recent pivot.
Traders can use this tool to map out potential levels of support and resistance based on historical data on pivot points.
Displacement [QuantVue]Displacement refers to a significant and forceful price movement that indicates a potential shift in market sentiment or trend. Displacement is characterized by a strong push in price action, often seen after a period of consolidation or within a trending market. It is a key concept used to identify the strength of a move and to confirm the direction of the market.
The "Displacement" indicator does this by focusing on identifying strong, directional price movements by combining candlestick analysis with volatility (ATR).
Displacement often appears as a group of candles that are all positioned in the same direction, these candles typically have large bodies and short wicks.
How the indicator works:
Body Size Requirement: Ensures that only candles with a significant body size (relative to their total range) are considered, helping to identify strong market moves.
Consecutive Candle Analysis: Identifies shifts in market sentiment by requiring a series of consecutive bullish or bearish candles to confirm a potential change in trend.
ATR-Based Analysis: Uses the Average True Range (ATR) to gauge market volatility and filter out minor price fluctuations, focusing on substantial movements.
Once all of the requirements are met a triangle is plotted above or below the bar.
Hourly Ranges [QuantVue]The "Hourly Ranges" indicator is designed to track and visualize the price ranges for each hour of the trading day. It calculates the difference between the high and low prices, as well as the differences between the high and open, and the open and low prices for each hourly candle. This data is stored and used to draw range lines on the chart.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders who want to monitor how price behaves during specific hours, identify potential support and resistance levels, and make trading decisions based on historical hourly price data.
Traders can use the hourly ranges to gauge market volatility and set expectations for price movement within each hour. The drawn levels on the chart represent the average high (resistance) and low (support) price ranges for each hour. These levels can serve as potential entry or exit points for trades, offering clear markers for setting stop-loss or take-profit orders.
By observing how price interacts with these hourly levels, traders can confirm trends or spot reversals. For example, if the price repeatedly touches and bounces off a specific hourly support level, it could indicate strong buying interest at that level.
The average range calculation gives traders a sense of the typical price movement during specific hours. This helps in assessing whether the market is more volatile during certain periods, which can be crucial for adjusting trading strategies and position sizing.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders who want to monitor how price behaves during specific hours, identify potential support and resistance levels, and make trading decisions based on historical hourly price data.
Candle Fibs [QuantVue]The Candles Fib indicator is designed to help traders find potential levels of support and resistance based on ATR and Fibs.
How the Indicator Works
Identification of Large Candles:
🔹The indicator begins by identifying "large candles" based on their size relative to the Average True Range (ATR).
🔹 ATR (Average True Range) : ATR is a technical analysis indicator that measures market volatility by averaging the true range over a specified period, default 10 periods. The true range is the greatest of the following:
The difference between the current high and current low.
The difference between the previous close and the current high.
The difference between the previous close and the current low.
🔹In this script, a candle is considered "large" if its true range (the difference between the high and low) is at least twice the ATR.
Calculation of Fibonacci Levels:
🔹Once a large candle is identified, the indicator calculates key Fibonacci retracement levels based on the size of the candle.
🔹 Fibonacci Retracement : Fibonacci retracement levels are horizontal lines that indicate where support and resistance are likely to occur. These levels are derived from the Fibonacci sequence, a series of numbers where each number is the sum of the two preceding ones, often found in nature and markets.
🔹The most commonly used Fibonacci retracement levels are 0.382, 0.50, 0.618, and 0.786. In this indicator, the 0.50 and 0.618 levels are used.
Dynamic Plotting and Management of Levels:
🔹The indicator plots these Fibonacci levels as horizontal lines on the chart automatically.
🔹These lines extend as new bars (candlesticks) are formed, allowing the trader to see how the market reacts to these levels in real-time.

LTF Inducement Levels [QuantVue]Inducement refers to a market manipulation tactic where large institutions or "smart money" create price movements that induce or lure retail traders into taking positions that are ultimately unfavorable. This concept is based on the idea that the market is moved by institutional traders who have the power and capital to manipulate prices to their advantage.
Within a dominant trend, there are frequently movements that go against the prevailing direction. These opposing moves are often driven by liquidity hunting on lower time frames. The price will experience a bounce or rejection, then aim for a previous short-term high or low before resuming its movement in alignment with the longer-term trend. Inducement involves specifically targeting these short-term highs or lows, which are potential zones where stop-loss orders may be located.
The LTF Inducement Levels indicator is designed to identify and display potential lower time frame (LTF) inducement levels on your chart. This indicator helps traders recognize price points where market manipulation might occur without needing multiple charts open.
Once a lower time frame pivot has been crossed, the level is removed from the current chart.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis:
The indicator uses a lower timeframe (LTF) to identify pivot highs and pivot lows, providing a granular view of potential inducement levels.
Configurable Parameters:
Lower Timeframe (LTF): The user can select the lower timeframe for analysis.
Pivot Length: The length used for identifying pivots.
Number of Pivots to Show: Limits the number of pivots displayed on the chart to avoid clutter.
Dynamic Pivot Management:
The indicator dynamically manages the pivots, adding new ones and removing old ones based on the configured maximum number of pivots to show.
It creates lines and labels for each pivot, which are updated as new pivots are formed or crossed.
Inducement Levels:
Pivot Highs: Marked with red lines and labeled with the price value.
Pivot Lows: Marked with green lines and labeled with the price value.
Cross Detection:
The indicator checks if the current price has crossed any of the identified pivots.
Once a pivot is crossed, the corresponding line and label are deleted.

Session VWAPS [QuantVue]The Session VWAPS indicator is a designed for traders to enhance their trading analysis by incorporating Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) anchored to custom-defined trading sessions.
This indicator automatically plots VWAPs at three critical points of a user defined session:
🔹session start
🔹session high
🔹session low
Additionally, it provides the option to display the VWAPs from previous sessions, offering a look at potential areas of support and resistance.
Anchored VWAP, or Anchored Volume-Weighted Average Price, is a technical analysis tool used to determine the average price of a stock weighted by volume, starting from a specific point in time chosen by the analyst.
Unlike traditional VWAP, which starts at the beginning of the trading session, the anchored VWAP allows traders to select any point on the chart, such as a significant event, price low, high, or a breakout, to begin the calculation.
VWAP incorporates price and volume in a weighted average and can be used to identify areas of support and resistance on the chart.
Indicator Features:
Custom Session Definition:
Users can define their own trading sessions by specifying start and end times, allowing for tailored analysis according to individual trading strategies or market hours.
Anchored VWAP at Three Key Points:
🔹Session Start VWAP: This VWAP is anchored at the start of the defined session.
🔹Session High VWAP: Anchored at the highest price point within the session.
🔹Session Low VWAP: Anchored at the lowest price point within the session.
Previous Session VWAPs:
The indicator can display VWAPs from the previous session, allowing traders to spot potential areas of support and resistance.

GMMA Toolkit [QuantVue]The GMMA Toolkit is designed to leverage the principles of the Guppy Multiple Moving Average (GMMA). This indicator is equipped with multiple features to help traders identify trends, reversals, and periods of market compression.
The Guppy Multiple Moving Average (GMMA) is a technical analysis tool developed by Australian trader and author Daryl Guppy in the late 1990s.
It utilizes two sets of Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) to capture both short-term and long-term market trends. The short-term EMAs represent the activity of traders, while the long-term EMAs reflect the behavior of investors.
By analyzing the interaction between these two groups of EMAs, traders can identify the strength and direction of trends, as well as potential reversals.
Due to the nature of GMMA, charts can become cluttered with numerous lines, making analysis challenging.
However, this indicator simplifies visualization by using clouds to represent the short-term and long-term EMA groups, determined by filling the area between the maximum and minimum EMAs in each group.
The GMMA Toolkit goes a step further and includes an oscillator that measures the difference between the average short-term and long-term EMAs, providing a clear visual representation of trend strength and direction.
The farther the oscillator is from the 0 level, the stronger the trend. It is plotted on a separate panel with values above zero indicating bullish conditions and values below zero indicating bearish conditions.
The inclusion of the oscillator in the GMMA Toolkit allows traders to identify earlier buy and sell signals based on the GMMA oscillator crossing the zero line compared to traditional crossover methods.
Lastly, the GMMA Toolkit features compression dots that indicate periods of market consolidation.
By measuring the spread between the maximum and minimum EMAs within both short-term and long-term groups, the indicator identifies when these spreads are significantly narrower than average by comparing the current spread to the average spread over a lookback period.
This visual cue helps traders anticipate potential breakout or breakdown scenarios, enhancing their ability to react to imminent trend changes.
By simplifying the visualization of the Guppy Multiple Moving Averages with clouds, providing earlier buy and sell signals through the oscillator, and highlighting periods of market consolidation with compression dots, this toolkit offers traders insightful tools for navigating market trends and potential reversals.

Expectation Breakers [QuantVue]In technical analysis, an "Expectation Breaker" refers to a market event where price action defies typical patterns and anticipated movements, signaling potential shifts in market sentiment and direction.
This indicator looks to take advantage of these opportunities by identifying 2 types of Expectation Breakers: Downside Reversal Buybacks and Upside Reversal Sellbacks.
Downside Reversal
A downside reversals occur when a stock reaches a new high for the user defined lookback period (65 bars by default), and then experiences a larger-than-average drop and closes near its lows. This usually indicates that the market has overextended itself. The expectation is that there will be 2-3 bars of significant selling, following the downside reversal.
However, a notable sign of strength is if the stock rebounds and closes above the downside reversal bar's high within 1-3 bars. This is known as a Downside Reversal Buyback. A rapid recovery following a downside reversal is a powerful bullish indicator, breaking the expectation of lower prices. The quicker price recovers from a downside reversal, the more meaningful it is. Such a swift rebound suggests that the market's strength was underestimated, as downside reversals typically signal a short-term decline.
Upside Reversal
An upside reversal occurs when a stock reaches a new low for the user-defined lookback period (65 bars by default), and then experiences a larger-than-average rise and closes near its highs. This usually indicates that the market has overextended itself to the downside. The expectation is that there will be 2-3 bars of significant buying, following the upside reversal.
However, a notable sign of weakness is if the stock falls back and closes below the upside reversal bar's low within 1-3 bars. This is known as a Upside Reversal Sellback. A rapid fallback following an upside reversal is a powerful bearish indicator, breaking the expectation of higher prices. The quicker price falls back from an upside reversal, the more meaningful it is. Such a swift fallback suggests that the market's weakness was underestimated, as upside reversals typically signal a short-term rally.
The Expectation Breakers indicator identifies these opportunities by first identifying new highs and lows within a defined lookback period. It then compares the true range (TR), average true range (ATR), and closing range to confirm the significance of these reversals. The use of TR and ATR ensures that the reversals are substantial enough to indicate a genuine shift in market sentiment, helping to identify when price action breaks expectations.

Double FVG-BPR [QuantVue]The Double FVG BPR Indicator is a versatile tool that helps traders identify potential support and resistance levels through the concept of balanced price ranges.
A Balanced Price Range (BPR) is a zone on a price chart where the market has found equilibrium after a period of price imbalance.
It is identified by detecting a Fair Value Gap (FVG) in one direction, followed by an overlapping Fair Value Gap in the opposite direction.
Components of a Balanced Price Range
Fair Value Gap (FVG): A FVG occurs when there is a rapid price movement, creating a gap in the price chart where minimal trading occurs. This gap represents an imbalance between supply and demand.
Bullish FVG: A bullish FVG is identified when the low of a candle is higher than the high of a candle two periods ago, and the close of the previous candle is higher than the high of that same period.
Bearish FVG: A bearish FVG is identified when the high of a candle is lower than the low of a candle two periods ago, and the close of the previous candle is lower than the low of that same period.
Overlapping Fair Value Gap: For a BPR to be formed, an initial FVG must be followed by an overlapping FVG in the opposite direction. This creates a balanced zone where the price has moved up (or down) quickly and then moved down (or up) with similar intensity, suggesting a temporary equilibrium.
The area between the high and low points of these overlapping FVGs forms the BPR. This zone represents a temporary market equilibrium where supply and demand have balanced out after a period of significant price movement in both directions.
How to Use
Support and Resistance Levels: The upper and lower boundaries of the BPR act as dynamic support and resistance levels. Traders can use these levels to place buy and sell orders, anticipating that the price may find support or face resistance within these zones.
Trend Reversal and Continuation: The BPR can signal potential trend reversals or continuations.
If the price moves back into the BPR after a breakout, it may indicate a reversal. Conversely, if the price breaks out of the BPR with strong momentum, it may signal a trend continuation.
Wyckoff Springs [QuantVue]The Wyckoff Springs indicator is designed to identify potential bullish reversal patterns known as "springs" in the Wyckoff Method. A Wyckoff spring occurs when the price temporarily dips below a support level, then quickly rebounds, suggesting a false breakdown and a
potential buying opportunity.
How it works:
Pivot detection:
The indicator identifies pivot lows based on the specified pivot length.
These pivot points are stored and analyzed for potential spring patterns.
Volume and Range Checks:
If volume confirmation is enabled, the indicator checks if the current volume exceeds a threshold based on the average volume over the specified period.
The indicator ensures that the price undercuts the defined trading range before confirming a spring pattern.
Spring Identification
The indicator checks for price conditions indicative of a Wyckoff spring: a temporary dip below a pivot low followed by a close above it. The recovery must take place within 3 bars.
If these conditions are met, a spring label is placed below the bar.
Features:
Pivot Length:
The user can set the pivot length to match any style of trading.
Volume Confirmation:
An optional feature where the user can specify if volume confirmation is required for a spring signal.
Volume threshold can be set to determine what constitutes significant volume compared to the average volume over a specified period. By default it is set to 1.5

Average Session Range [QuantVue]The Average Session Range or ASR is a tool designed to find the average range of a user defined session over a user defined lookback period.
Not only is this indicator is useful for understanding volatility and price movement tendencies within sessions, but it also plots dynamic support and resistance levels based on the ASR.
The average session range is calculated over a specific period (default 14 sessions) by averaging the range (high - low) for each session.
Knowing what the ASR is allows the user to determine if current price action is normal or abnormal.
When a new session begins, potential support and resistance levels are calculated by breaking the ASR into quartiles which are then added and subtracted from the sessions opening price.
The indicator also shows an ASR label so traders can know what the ASR is in terms of dollars.
Session Time Configuration:
The indicator allows users to define the session time, with default timing set from 13:00 to 22:00.
ASR Calculation:
The ASR is calculated over a specified period (default 14 sessions) by averaging the range (high - low) of each session.
Various levels based on the ASR are computed: 0.25 ASR, 0.5 ASR, 0.75 ASR, 1 ASR, 1.25 ASR, 1.5 ASR, 1.75 ASR, and 2 ASR.
Visual Representation:
The indicator plots lines on the chart representing different ASR levels.
Customize the visibility, color, width, and style (Solid, Dashed, Dotted) of these lines for better visualization.
Labels for these lines can also be displayed, with customizable positions and text properties.

ATR by Time [QuantVue]"ATR by Time" incorporates time-specific volatility patterns by calculating the Average True Range (ATR) over a customizable period and comparing it to historical ATR values
at specific times of the day.
The Average True Range (ATR) is a popular technical indicator that measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of an asset price for that period.
By taking the ATR at certain times of the day and comparing it to the current bar's ATR, traders can gain several potential advantages:
Volatility Pattern Recognition: Different times of the trading day often exhibit different levels of volatility. For instance, markets might be more volatile at the open and close compared to midday. By tracking ATR at specific times, traders can recognize these patterns and better predict periods of high or low volatility.
Risk Management: Understanding volatility trends throughout the day helps in better risk management. During periods of high expected volatility (indicated by higher ATR compared to the historical average), traders can adjust their stop-loss levels and position sizes accordingly to protect their capital.
Trend Confirmation and Divergence: This indicator can help confirm trends or identify potential reversals. For example, if the current ATR consistently exceeds the average ATR at specific times, it may confirm a strong trend. Conversely, if the current ATR falls below the historical average, it could signal a potential slowdown or reversal.
This indicator will work on all markets on all time frames. User can customize ATR length as well as the lookback period.
This script utilizes TradingView's RelativeValue library and averageAtTime function, which is used to compare a current data point in a time interval to an average of data points with corresponding time offsets across historical periods. Its purpose is to assess the significance of a value by considering the historical context within past time intervals.

Consolidation VWAP's [QuantVue]Introducing the Consolidation VWAP's Indicator , a powerful tool designed to identify consolidation periods in stock advance and automatically anchor three distinct VWAPs to key points within the consolidation.
Consolidation Period Identification:
The indicator automatically detects periods of consolidation or areas on the chart where a stock's price moves sideways within a defined range. This period can be seen as the market taking a "breather" as it digests the previous gains. Consolidations are important because they often act as a base for the next move, either continuing the previous uptrend or reversing direction.
Consolidation requirements can be customized by the user to match your instrument and timeframe.

Anchored VWAP, or Anchored Volume-Weighted Average Price, is a technical analysis tool used to determine the average price of a stock weighted by volume, starting from a specific point in time chosen by the analyst.
Unlike traditional VWAP, which starts at the beginning of the trading session, the anchored VWAP allows traders to select any point on the chart, such as a significant event, price low, high, or a breakout, to begin the calculation.
VWAP incorporates price and volume in a weighted average and can be used to identify areas of support and resistance on the chart.
VWAP Anchored to Consolidation High: This VWAP is anchored at the highest price point within the identified consolidation period. It helps traders understand the
average price paid by buyers who entered at the peak of the consolidation.
VWAP Anchored to Consolidation Low: This VWAP is anchored at the lowest price point within the consolidation. It provides insights into the average price paid by
buyers who entered at the lowest point of the consolidation.
VWAP Anchored to Highest Volume in the Consolidation: This VWAP is anchored at the price level with the highest trading volume during the consolidation. It reflects the average price at
which the most trading activity occurred, often indicating a key support or resistance level.
The indicator also allows the trader to see past consolidation areas and previous anchored VWAP's.

Phaser [QuantVue]The Phaser indicator is a tool to help identify inflection points by looking at price relative to past prices across multiple timeframes and assets.
Phase 1 looks for the price to be higher or lower than the closing price of the bar 4 bars earlier and is complete when 9 consecutive bars meet this criterion.
A completed Phase 1 is considered perfect when the highs (bearish) or lows (bullish) have been exceeded from bars 6 and 7 of the phase.
A bullish setup requires 9 consecutive closes less than the close 4 bars earlier.
A bearish setup requires 9 consecutive closes greater than the close 4 bars earlier.
Phase 2 begins once Phase 1 has been completed. Phase 2 compares the current price to the high or low of two bars earlier.
Unlike Phase 1, Phase 2 does not require the count to be consecutive.
Phase 2 is considered complete when 13 candles have met the criteria.
An important aspect to Phase 2 is the relationship between bar 13 and bar 8.
To ensure the end of Phase 2 is in line with the existing trend, the high or low of bar 13 is compared to the close of bar 8.
A bullish imperfect 13 occurs when the current price is less than the low of 2 bars earlier, but the current low is greater than the close of bar 8 in Phase 2.
A bearish imperfect 13 occurs when the current price is greater than the high of 2 bars earlier, but the current high is less than the close of bar 8 in Phase 2.
Phase 2 does not need to go until it is complete. A Phase 2 can be canceled if the price closes above or below the highest or lowest price from Phase 1.

🔹Intermediate: Calculated over a medium-term period (default 31 bars).
🔹Momentum: Calculated over a short-term period (default 5 bars).
🔹Near Term: Calculated over a very short-term period (default 3 bars).
These calculations involve finding the highest and lowest values within their respective periods and comparing the current close to this range.
Moving Average Smoothing
The results of the Fast Stochastic Oscillator for the Intermediate and Near Term are then smoothed using a Simple Moving Average (SMA):
🔹Intermediate: 5-period SMA of the Intermediate Stochastic Oscillator.
🔹Near Term: 2-period SMA of the Near Term Stochastic Oscillator.
Momentum Indicator
A custom momentum calculation is performed, using the recent high and low prices over four periods.
Display
The indicator plots the smoothed Intermediate, Near Term, and custom Momentum calculations as separate lines on the chart.
Trading Signals
While the original indicator plots the lines mentioned above, the Market Forecast w/ Signals goes a step further by identifying key moments when nuanced signals fire. The built in alerts and visual aids make spotting these trading opportunities a breeze.
Clusters - Bullish and Bearish clusters are identified based on the convergence of all three lines (Intermediate, Near, and Momentum) above 80 (Bearish) or below 20 (Bullish).
The background color of the chart changes to indicate these clusters, aiding in quick identification of market extremes.
Trend Reversals - Marked with labels on the chart, this is based on the direction of the cluster (bullish or bearish) and the subsequent price movement crossing a threshold determined during the cluster formation.
Divergences - Divergences between the Near Term line and price highs/lows are detected using pivot points. These divergences are then plotted as lines on the chart, highlighting potential discrepancies between price action and momentum, which can signal reversals.

Relative Volume Candles [QuantVue]In the words of Dan Zanger, "Trying to trade without using volume is like trying to drive a few hundred miles without putting gas in your tank. Trying to trade without chart patterns is like leaving without having an idea how to get there!"
Volume tends to show up at the beginning and the end of trends. As a general rule, when a stock goes up on low volume, it's seen as negative because it means buyers aren't committed. When a stock goes down on low volume, it means that not many people are trying to sell it, which is positive.
The Relative Volume Candles indicator is based on the Zanger Volume Ratio and designed to help identify key volume patterns effortlessly, with color coded candles and wicks.
The indicator is designed to be used on charts less than 1 Day and calculates the average volume for the user selected lookback period at the given time of day. From there a ratio of the current volume vs the average volume is used to determine the candle’s colors.
The candles wicks are color coded based on whether or not the volume ratio is rising or falling.
So when is it most important to have volume? When prices break out of a consolidation pattern like a bull flag or cup and handle pattern, volume plays a role. When a stock moves out of a range, volume shows how committed buyers are to that move.
Note in order to see this indicator you will need to change the visual order. This is done by selecting the the 3 dots next to the indicator name, scrolling down to visual order and selecting bring to front.
Indicator Features
🔹Selectable candle colors
🔹Selectable ratio levels
🔹Custom lookback period***
***TradingView has a maximum 5,000 bar lookback for most plans. If you are on a lower time frame chart and you select a lookback period larger than 5,000 bars the indicator will not show and you will need to select a shorter lookback period or move to a higher time frame chart.

Order Blocks W/ Realtime Fibs [QuantVue]The "Order Blocks W/ Realtime Fibs" indicator is a comprehensive tool combining the concepts of order blocks with Fibonacci retracement. The combination can be a powerful tool for identifying entry and exit points, and potential target areas.
Order blocks indicate where major players have likely placed their orders, while Fibonacci levels provide a mathematical basis for potential support and resistance areas.
What is an Order Block?
An order block in trading refers to an area on the chart in which it is believed a substantial number of orders (buy or sell) collected over a short period. Typically, these are identified as a range of consecutive aggressive bullish or bearish bars (candles). They represent areas where significant market players have entered the market, creating a footprint of their activity.
The indicator is highly customizable allowing user to select the number of consecutive bars and minimum price movement required for an order block, along with other settings like requiring a new order block in the opposite direction before finding a new order block.
Fibonacci Retracements
Fibonacci retracements are popular among technical traders, based on the idea that markets often retrace a predictable portion of a move, after which they continue to move in the original direction.
Once an Order Block is detected the indicator will automatically draw Fibonacci levels and continue to update those levels in real time until the user selected retracement level has been hit or a new more relevant order block has been found.
The combination of order blocks and Fibonacci retracements in this indicator can be used as a method for spotting potential reversal zones.

Session Fibonacci Levels [QuantVue]The "Session Fibonacci Levels" indicator is a powerful tool designed for traders who aim to use Fibonacci retracement and extension levels in their trading strategy.
The indicator combines Fibonacci levels with customized trading sessions, allowing traders to observe and utilize Fibonacci levels that are automatically calculated for each defined session.
This approach offers a dynamic and session-relevant perspective on potential support and resistance levels, which can be crucial for intraday trading strategies.
🔹The indicator calculates Fibonacci retracement and extension levels based on the high and low prices of a specified trading session, dynamically adjusting to the location of the high and low bar.
If the low of the session occurs before the high, the fib levels are measured from low to high.
If the low of the session occurs after the high, the fib levels are measured from high to low.
🔹Users can set their time zone and define trading sessions, allowing for flexibility and applicability across global markets. This is particularly beneficial for traders who focus on specific market hours like the London or New York sessions.
Important sessions:
New York (8:00am - 5:00pm EST)
London (3:00am - 12:00pm EST)
Asia (7:00pm - 4:00am EST)
Custom session (user defined session in indicator settings)
🔹The indicator dynamically updates Fibonacci levels as new highs and lows are made within the session, keeping the analysis current. Additionally, it provides alerts when prices hit key Fibonacci levels, aiding in timely decision-making.
How to Use:
Configure the time zone and session time
Once the session begins, the indicator will begin highlighting the session range
When the session ends, Fibonacci levels based on the high and low of the session will be drawn
Use these levels to identify potential support and resistance areas
