High Timeframe POCBecause the big Bitcoin crash I have been looking a lot at high timeframe metrics. I never spent much time learning POC so I decided to create a little script for determining these on higher timeframes. Currently included: Monthly, 3 months and 6 months. /* DEFINITION */ Point Of Control (= POC) is a price level at which the heaviest volumes were traded. Value Area High/Low (=VAH/VAL) is a range of prices where the majority of trading volume took place. Naturally, Value Area High being the top price level and Value Area Low being the lowest. POC always is between the two. /* HOW TO TRADE WITH THIS INDICATOR */ The basis for POC is determining bias on whichever timeframe you choose. 1. Identify a POC on the timeframe of your choosing. /* If you choose a "low" timeframe (monthly here) then make sure to look at the higher timeframes to see how it is playing against a higher timeframe POC. 2. When the price is moving away from the POC (either to the upside or downside) this will confirm or invalidate the trade. 3. You can now enter the trade on bias or wait for a retest of the same POC. /* EXAMPLE TRADES /* Here is a screenshot of some of the trades that are possible solely using the POC and some common sense. s3.tradingview.com

POCs and VAHs VALs - All and Non-BrokenThe "POC and VAH VAL - All and Non-Broken" POC = Points of Control VAH = Value Area High VAL = Value Area Low This indicator aims to show you on the 5 minute time frame all POCs and VAHs/VALs and Non-Broken POCs and VAHs/VALs. (Non-Broken are POCS and VAHs/VALS where price action has not since crossed its path) In the screen image above I have used VPVR to back test on BYBIT:BTCUSDT. The POCs and VAHs/VALs for each day can be seen. Also there is an option to see non-broken POCS and VAHs/VALs within the settings. All display options are selectable within the settings. The indicator is not as precise as using the VPVR but is a lot quicker and gives you a quick snapshot to assist with your technical analysis. In the screen shot above are some examples highlighted with yellow circles (resistance at POC and VAHs/VALs). Thanks goes to: ahancock for use of his code. Bjorn Mistiaen on StackOverFlow for his assistance. Disclaimer: Indicator has been coded to only show on 5 min time frame (after back testing seemed most accurate). Only back tested on BYBIT:BTCUST. There are some slight discrepancies. Back tested against VPVR settings: Row Size 500, Value Area 70. Maximum of 500 lines will only be shown.

Price Action - Support & Resistance by DGTSᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ , is undoubtedly one of the key concepts of technical analysis █  Sᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ Dᴇꜰɪɴɪᴛɪᴏɴ Support and Resistance terms are used by traders to refer to price levels on charts that tend to act as barriers, preventing the price of an financial instrument from getting pushed in a certain direction. A support level is a price level where buyers are more aggressive than sellers. This means that the price is more likely to "bounce" off this level rather than break through it. However, once the price has breached this level it is likely to continue falling until meeting another support level. A resistance level is the opposite of a support level. It is where the price tends to find resistance as it rises. Again, this means that the price is more likely to "bounce" off this level rather than break through it. However, once the price has breached this level it is likely to continue rising until meeting another resistance level. A previous support level will sometimes become a resistance level when the price attempts to move back up, and conversely, a resistance level will become a support level as the price temporarily falls back. █  Iᴅᴇɴᴛɪꜰʏɪɴɢ Sᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ Support and resistance can come in various forms, and the concept is more difficult to master than it first appears. Identification of key support and resistance levels is an essential ingredient to successful technical analysis. If the price stalls and reverses in the same price area on minimum of two different occasions, then a horizontal line is drawn to show that the market is struggling to move past that area. Those areas are static barriers, one of the most popular forms of support/resistance and are highlighted with horizontal lines. Repeated test , the more often a support/resistance level is "tested" over an extended period of time (touched and bounced off by price), the more significance is given to that specific level High volume , the more buying and selling that has occurred at a particular price level, the stronger the support or resistance level is likely to be Market psychology , plays a major role as traders and investors remember the past and react to changing conditions to anticipate future market movement. Psychological levels , is a price level that significantly affects the price of an underlying financial instrument. Typically, near round numbers often serve as support and resistance The following support and resistance related topics are beyond the scope of this study, so they will be mentioned roughly only as a reference for support and resistance concept Trendlines , Support and resistance levels in trends are dynamic. Throughout an uptrend, levels of support tend to look like a trendline, usually clustering around higher lows. As the price rises, the price where buyers consider the stock to be “too cheap” also changes, which creates new support levels on the way up. The same is also true for resistance levels. In an uptrend, a stock is continuously breaking through perceived resistance levels and making new highs Moving Averages , is a constantly changing line that smooths out past price data while also allowing the trader to identify support and resistance. In the example Notice how the price of the asset finds support at the moving average when the trend is up, and how it acts as resistance when the trend is down The Fibonacci Retracement/Extension tool , is a favorite among many short-term traders because it clearly identifies levels of potential support and resistance Pivot Point Calculations , is another common technical analysis technique, where pivot point is calculated based on the high, low, and closing prices of previous trading session/day and support & resistance levels are projected based on the pivot point, different calculation techniques are available, as presented in this example of an pivot point indicator : PVTvX by DGT █  Tʀᴀᴅɪɴɢ Bᴀꜱᴇᴅ ᴏɴ Sᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ Once an area or "zone" of support or resistance has been identified, those price levels can serve as potential entry or exit points because, as a price reaches a point of support or resistance, it will do one of two things—bounce back away from the support or resistance level (trading ranges), or violate the price level and continue in its direction (trading breakouts) —until it hits the next support or resistance level The basic trading method for using support and resistance is to buy near support in uptrends or the parts of ranges or chart patterns where prices are moving up and to sell/sell short near resistance in downtrends or the parts of ranges and chart patterns where prices are moving down. Buying near support or selling near resistance can pay off, but there is no assurance that the support or resistance will hold. Therefore, consider waiting for some confirmation that the market is still respecting that area Trading breakouts, a breakout is a potential trading opportunity that occurs when an asset's price moves above a resistance level or moves below a support level on increasing volume. The first step in trading breakouts is to identify current price trend patterns along with support and resistance levels in order to plan possible entry and exit points. Once the asset trades beyond the price barrier, volatility tends to increase and prices usually trend in the breakout's direction. Breakouts are such an important trading strategy since these setups are the starting point for future volatility increases, large price swings and, in many circumstances, major price trends. When trading breakouts, it is important to consider the underlying asset's support and resistance levels. The more times an asset price has touched these areas, the more valid these levels are and the more important they become. At the same time, the longer these support and resistance levels have been in play, the better the outcome when the asset price finally breaks out. Asset prices will often move slightly further than we expect them to. This doesn't happen all the time, but when it does it is called a false breakout. Therefore it is important to consider waiting for some confirmation while trading breakouts. It’s also popular for traders to sell 50% of their positions at the resistance level, and hold the rest in anticipation of a breakout above resistance █  Pʀɪᴄᴇ Aᴄᴛɪᴏɴ - Sᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ & Rᴇꜱɪꜱᴛᴀɴᴄᴇ ʙʏ DGT Sᴛᴜᴅʏ This experimental study attempts to identify the support and resistance levels. Assumes a simple logic to discover moments where the price is rising or falling consecutively for minimum 3 bars with the condition volume increases on each bar and the last bar’s volume should be bigger than the long term volume moving average. A line will be drawn at the end of the move (highest or lowest, depending on the move direction), the line will be drawn at minimum on the 3rd bar and if condition holds for other consecutive bars the line will switch to 4th, 5th etc bar. Lines will not be deleted so the historical ones will remain and will emphasis the levels significance when they overlap in feature. Strong levels are more likely to hold and cause the price to move in the other direction, whereas the minor levels may only cause the price to pause and keep moving in the same direction. Determining future levels of support and resistance can drastically improve the returns of a short-term investing strategy Bar colors will be painted based on the volume of the specific bar to its long term volume moving average. This will help identifying the support and resistance levels significance and emphasis the sings of breakouts Finally, Volume spikes will be marked on top of the price chart. A high volume usually indicates more interest in the security and the presence of institutional traders. However, a rapidly rising price in an uptrend accompanied by a huge volume may be a sign of exhaustion. Traders usually look for breaks of support and resistance to enter positions. When security break critical levels without volume , you should consider the breakout suspect and prime for a reversal off the highs/lows. Volume spikes are often the result of news-driven events. Volume spike will often lead to sharp reversals since the moves are unsustainable due to the imbalance of supply and demand A good example with many support and resistance concepts observed on a stock chart and detected by the study Settings: Length of volume moving average, where volume moving average is used to detect support and resistance levels, is used as reference to compare with threshold values for volume spikes and colors of the bars Hint, to get more historical lines scrolling chart to left will enable visualization of them.

tradershedge Dear Traders, This script will get a smile on most of the pivot and price action traders. My trading skills have drastically improved after learning the concepts of central pivot point, supply and demand and more importantly understanding of the simple candle stick patterns. This is my experiment of decoding the above mentioned concepts to simple trading setups which can be used across any instruments and across any timeframes. The most essential and must skills required in order to achieve profits in trading is to identify the right trend, exact entry and exits, risk management and importantly understanding the market structure along with the traders emotion. Let’s just decipher each of the essential skills along the tools we will be using for analyzing each of the section TREND ANALYSIS Central pivot range ( CPR ) : is used to identify the market structure and the major trend of the instrument you are going to trade. This will help in identifying the mean reversions & trending trade setups in the market. Developing Dynamic Pivots & Future Targets This setup will help us in decoding the closing and opening market sentiment and will help us in planning our trade upfront. This home work in post & pre-market session will increase the odds of the trade in our favor to a great extent. Trend Identification & Dynamic Support & Resistance I have also included the Pivot based exponential moving average (PEMA) to visually identify the current trend and it also shows the current trend by dynamically changing the colors for bull & bear market in the PEMA zone. VALUE AREA We know that the market works on supply and demand and when the price arrives at these zones the market reacts very faithfully. Hence it’s very important for a trader to know in advance where these levels exist before entering the market. This Indicator bridges this gap by showing in advance the future value areas where the price reaction can be expected and trades can be planned accordingly. Hence it can anticipate the market move with a strong logic behind us rather than leaving the trader in surprise. This value area zone will be highlighted in different colors on the chart will be grab your attention and help in planning your trade accordingly. Market Sentiment Each market session is a story in itself which is been scripted by the movements of each candle sticks, hence if we understand the relationship between each candles as it is getting formed we can predicate the future candle stick formation to a great extent. i have coded the indicator triggers which reads the relationship between each candles and shows signals of reversals and also give traders alerts when the price rejection occurs. Various shapes of rejection signs are plotted for bullish and bearish reversals which help in prediction the strength of the price rejection which will help the trader in planning his trade. The various shapes in the order of strength are diamond, square, arrows, and triangle respectively. Entry & Exits The volatility is the key in predicting the market movement. If we identify the trend correctly then all we have to do is set our expectations accordingly for the targets based on the volatility of the instrument. The indicator basically captures the recent volatility for the specified look back period and plots across the possible price movements for the current session. Based on your entry setups you can get a reference of the maximum targets we can expect with the help of the levels the indicator plots. Please do feel free to use the indicator and give your valuable feed backs which will help me in optimizing it to a great extent. I am in the process of optimizing the price triggers to a greater extent and also dynamically plot the possible demand and supply zones in coming future. I would love to thank each of the traders in this TradingView community in helping me improve on my trading skills. Happy Trading !

Institutional PivotsToday I propose a novel idea of plotting pivots, this can be also considered as Value areas/Noise areas. *What is it? Its a simple concept of gauging price action with respect to its most time spent in a particular range, this is usually denoted as Value area in the Market profile concept, where that "most" word is represented by 70% of the price action. *What's different from the Market Profile? Market profile is dependent on real time price movement to complete to see the value area or noise area to plot a static area, there is always a possibility of it shifting as price may move outside of it, and hence its called "developing value area", till of course session is closed and plot is finalized. While that method is solid indication of "actual price profile" development, it lacks when it comes to offering traders a more stable view to enable them to make decisions. And therefor, when traders trade MP they are usually limited by the number of trades they can take. This is the main reason as to why traders prefer to use other methods like Pivots/ORB/Range-breakouts over pure MP charts, even though latter reduces the possibility of wrong estimations of "support/resistance working/holding". *Why the name Institutional Pivots? In my research I've found that these Pivots/Value area/Noise area ranges are often the areas watched by the big players who trade breakouts or mean reversion strategies, so while that name may sound dubiously clickbaity, it is indeed intended to represent an observation. I know how that sounds, but you can choose to ignore it if you do not agree or see good results after using it. After all, its free to use for everyone. *Nomenclature/colors and settings? Noise area/Value area/Central Pivot area - Designated with Yellow labels, in which NU represents the Upper level and ND represents the Lower level Targets - Target calculation mechanism is based on " today's price action" and today's Open, D1 and D2 represent down targets for the day and U1 and U2 represent upper targets. Please note that this is independent of the "Noise area/Value area/Central Pivot area", so overlap of levels is possible. AND if overlap happens, that's an indication of more strength at S/R line/area for the price. One more thing to note here is that if there is formation of the new low or new high in the day, those levels will change as their calculation gets influenced by the same. This is NOT a repaint issue, this is SHIFT/FORMATION OF THE NEW levels and it's an "intended" behavior. Open and POpen - Open represents open of the time-frame selected and POpen represents previous open of the time-frame. Lable's starting with "H" are indicating higher Timeframe levels, levels which are same as above. ATR based targets - When you enable this in settings, you will get target calculation based on ATR (self explanatory) Full ATR mode - When you enable this option, you will get both Noise area as well as targets based on ATR, please don't forgot to turn off the ATR based targets when you enable this, as they conflict with each other. I've not kept lines, area plots or even price levels as I feel it's just noise and takes away from the indicators main focus, please don't ask to add them, I'll not. This is meant as purely educational idea, if you use this to trade, it is at your discretion and responsibility will be yours alone. Past performance is not assurance of the future performance.

Volume Profile Free Ultra SLI (100 Levels Value Area VWAP) - RRBVolume Profile Free Ultra SLI by RagingRocketBull 2019 Version 1.0 This indicator calculates Volume Profile for a given range and shows it as a histogram consisting of 100 horizontal bars. This is basically the MAX SLI version with +50 more Pinescript v4 line objects added as levels. It can also show Point of Control (POC), Developing POC, Value Area/VWAP StdDev High/Low as dynamically moving levels. Free accounts can't access Standard TradingView Volume Profile, hence this indicator. There are several versions: Free Pro, Free MAX SLI, Free Ultra SLI, Free History. This is the Free Ultra SLI version. The Differences are listed below: - Free Pro: 25 levels, +Developing POC, Value Area/VWAP High/Low Levels, Above/Below Area Dimming - Free MAX SLI: 50 levels, 2x SLI modes for Buy/Sell or even higher res 150 levels - Free Ultra SLI: 100 levels, packed to the limit, 2x SLI modes for Buy/Sell or even higher res 300 levels - Free History: auto highest/lowest, historic poc/va levels for each session Features: - High-Res Volume Profile with up to 100 levels (line implementation) - 2x SLI modes for even higher res: 300 levels with 3x vertical SLI, 100 buy/sell levels with 2x horiz SLI - Calculate Volume Profile on full history - POC, Developing POC Levels - Buy/Sell/Total volume modes - Side Cover - Value Area, VAH/VAL dynamic levels - VWAP High/Low dynamic levels with Source, Length, StdDev as params - Show/Hide all levels - Dim Non Value Area Zones - Custom Range with Highlighting - 3 Anchor points for Volume Profile - Flip Levels Horizontally - Adjustable width, offset and spacing of levels - Custom Color for POC/VA/VWAP levels, Transparency for buy/sell levels WARNING: - Compilation Time: 1 min 20 sec Usage: - specify max_level/min_level/spacing (required) - select range (start_bar, range length), confirm with range highlighting - select volume type: Buy/Sell/Total - select mode Value Area/VWAP to show corresponding levels - flip/select anchor point to position the buy/sell levels - use Horiz Buy/Sell SLI mode with 100 or Vertical SLI with 300 levels if needed - use POC/Developing POC/VA/VWAP High/Low as S/R levels. Usually daily values from 1-3 days back are used as levels for the current day. SLI: use SLI modes to extend the functionality of the indicator: - Horiz Buy/Sell 2x SLI lets you view 100 Buy/Sell Levels at the same time - Vertical Max_Vol 3x SLI lets you increase the resolution to 300 levels - you need at least 2 instances of the indicator attached to the same chart for SLI to work 1) Enable Horiz SLI: - attach 2 indicator instances to the chart - make sure all instances have the same min_level/max_level/range/spacing settings - select volume type for each instance: you can have a buy/sell or buy/total or sell/total SLI. Make sure your buy volume instance is the last attached to be displayed on top of sell/total instances without overlapping. - set buy_sell_sli_mode to true for indicator instances with volume_type = buy/sell, for type total this is optional. - this basically tells the script to calculate % lengths based on total volume instead of individual buy/sell volumes and use ext offset for sell levels - Sell Offset is calculated relative to Buy Offset to stack/extend sell after buy. Buy Offset = Zero - Buy Length. Sell Offset = Buy Offset - Sell Length = Zero - Buy Length - Sell Length - there are no master/slave instances in this mode, all indicators are equal, poc/va levels are not affected and can work independently, i.e. one instance can show va levels, another - vwap. 2) Enable Vertical SLI: - attach the first instance and evaluate the full range to roughly determine where is the highest max_vol/poc level i.e. 0..20000, poc is in the bottom half (third, middle etc) or - add more instances and split the full vertical range between them, i.e. set min_level/max_level of each corresponding instance to 0..10000, 10000..20000 etc - make sure all instances have the same range/spacing settings - an instance with a subrange containing the poc level of the full range is now your master instance (bottom half). All other instances are slaves, their levels will be calculated based on the max_vol/poc of the master instance instead of local values - set show_max_vol_sli to true for the master instance. for slave instances this is optional and can be used to check if master/slave max_vol values match and slave can read the master's value. This simply plots the max_vol value - you can also attach all instances and set show_max_vol_sli to true in all of them - the instance with the largest max_vol should become the master Auto/Manual Ext Max_Vol Modes: - for auto vertical max_vol SLI mode set max_vol_sli_src in all slave instances to the max_vol of the master indicator: "VolumeProfileFree_MAX_RRB: Max Volume for Vertical SLI Mode". It can be tricky with 2+ instances - in case auto SLI mode doesn't work - assign max_vol_sli_ext in all slave instances the max_vol value of the master indicator manually and repeat on each change - manual override max_vol_sli_ext has higher priority than auto max_vol_sli_src when both values are assigned, when they are 0 and close respectively - SLI is disabled - master/slave max_vol values must match on each bar at all times to maintain proper level scale, otherwise slave's levels will look larger than they should relative to the master's levels. - Max_vol (red) is the last param in the long list of indicator outputs - the only true max_vol/poc in this SLI mode is the master's max_vol/poc. All poc/va levels in slaves will be irrelevant and are disabled automatically. Slaves can only show VWAP levels. - VA Levels of the master instance in this SLI mode are calculated based on the subrange, not the whole range and may be inaccurate. Cross check with the full range. WARNING! - auto mode max_vol_sli_src is experimental and may not work as expected - you can only assign auto mode max_vol_sli_src = max_vol once due to some bug with unhandled exception/buffer overflow in Tradingview. Seems that you can clear the value only by removing the indicator instance - sometimes you may see a "study in error state" error when attempting to set it back to close. Remove indicator/Reload chart and start from scratch - volume profile may not finish to redraw and freeze in an ugly shape after an UI parameter change when max_vol_sli_src is assigned a max_vol value. Assign it to close - VP should redraw properly, but it may not clear the assigned max_vol value - you can't seem to be able to assign a proper auto max_vol value to the 3rd slave instance - 2x Vertical SLI works and tested in both auto/manual, 3x SLI - only manual seems to work (you can have a mixed mode: 2nd instance - auto, 3rd - manual) Notes: - This code uses Pinescript v3 compatibility framework - This code is 20x-30x faster (main for cycle is removed) especially on lower tfs with long history - only 4-5 sec load/redraw time vs 30-60 sec of the old Pro versions - Instead of repeatedly calculating the total sum of volumes for the whole range on each bar, vol sums are now increased on each bar and passed to the next in the range making it a per range vs per bar calculation that reduces time dramatically - 100 levels consist of 50 main plot levels and 50 line objects used as alternate levels, differences are: - line objects are always shown on top of other objects, such as plot levels, zero line and side cover, it's not possible to cover/move them below. - all line objects have variable lengths, use actual x,y coords and don't need side cover, while all plot levels have a fixed length of 100 bars, use offset and require cover. - all key properties of line objects, such as x,y coords, color can be modified, objects can be moved/deleted, while this is not possible for static plot levels. - large width values cause line objects to expand only up/down from center while their length remains the same and stays within the level's start/end points similar to an area style. - large width values make plot levels expand in all directions (both h/v), beyond level start/end points, sometimes overlapping zero line, making them an inaccurate % length representation, as opposed to line objects/plot levels with area style. - large width values translate into different widths on screen for line objects and plot levels. - you can't compensate for this unwanted horiz width expansion of plot levels because width uses its own units, that don't translate into bars/pixels. - line objects are visible only when num_levels > 50, plot levels are used otherwise - Since line objects are lines, plot levels also use style line because other style implementations will break the symmetry/spacing between levels. - if you don't see a volume profile check range settings: min_level/max_level and spacing, set spacing to 0 (or adjust accordingly based on the symbol's precision, i.e. 0.00001) - you can view either of Buy/Sell/Total volumes, but you can't display Buy/Sell levels at the same time using a single instance (this would 2x reduce the number of levels). Use 2 indicator instances in horiz buy/sell sli mode for that. - Volume Profile/Value Area are calculated for a given range and updated on each bar. Each level has a fixed length. Offsets control visible level parts. Side Cover hides the invisible parts. - Custom Color for POC/VA/VWAP levels - UI Style color/transparency can only change shape's color and doesn't affect textcolor, hence this additional option - Custom Width - UI Style supports only width <= 4, hence this additional option - POC is visible in both modes. In VWAP mode Developing POC becomes VWAP, VA High and Low => VWAP High and Low correspondingly to minimize the number of plot outputs - You can't change buy/sell level colors from input (only transparency) - this requires 2x plot outputs => 2x reduces the number of levels to fit the max 64 limit. That's why 2 additional plots are used to dim the non Value Area zones - You can change level transparency of line objects. Due to Pinescript limitations, only discrete values are supported. - Inverse transp correlation creates the necessary illusion of "covered" line objects, although they are shown on top of the cover all the time - If custom lines_transp is set the illusion will break because transp range can't be skewed easily (i.e. transp 0..100 is always mapped to 100..0 and can't be mapped to 50..0) - transparency can applied to lines dynamically but nva top zone can't be completely removed because plot/mixed type of levels are still used when num_levels < 50 and require cover - transparency can't be applied to plot levels dynamically from script this can be done only once from UI, and you can't change plot color for the past length bars - All buy/sell volume lengths are calculated as % of a fixed base width = 100 bars (100%). You can't set show_last from input to change it - Range selection/Anchoring is not accurate on charts with time gaps since you can only anchor from a point in the future and measure distance in time periods, not actual bars, and there's no way of knowing the number of future gaps in advance. - Adjust Width for Log Scale mode now also works on high precision charts with small prices (i.e. 0.00001) - in Adjust Width for Log Scale mode Level1 width extremes can be capped using max deviation (when level1 = 0, shift = 0 width becomes infinite) - There's no such thing as buy/sell volume, there's just volume, but for the purposes of the Volume Profile method, assume: bull candle = buy volume, bear candle = sell volume P.S.

Session Volume Profile v1.0This script is a continuous Real Time Session Based (1D) Volume Profile . It emulates TV's built in Volume Profile Session Volume function. It looks at the real time volume for a given session (1 day) and updates the following three elements for that day in real time: Point of Control ( POC ) Value Area High ( VAH ) Value Area Low ( VAL ) There are 2 standard parameters: Number of Bins/Rows : The granularity of the volume profile, the higher the number the more precise the calculations will be but will load slower, ideal is 16/32. Percent for Value Area : Percent of total volume traded that you would like to be shown as a fill around the POC (maximum volume bin/row) There are also 2 non standard parameters: Checkbox for slower loading but more precise Value Area Calculation, checked = enabled, unchecked = disabled Checkbox for more volatile symbols, check this if the price action is outside of the white dotted lines, default is disabled, checked = enabled, unchecked = disabled POC: White Stepline Value Area High: Highest Blue Line marking the top of the fill (Value Area) Value Area Low: Lowest White Line marking the bottom of the fill Please pm me if you are interested in trying this script out; I am also available for hire to work on custom scripts.

Volume Profile Free MAX SLI (50 Levels Value Area VWAP) by RRBVolume Profile Free MAX SLI by RagingRocketBull 2019 Version 1.0 All available Volume Profile Free MAX SLI versions are listed below (They are very similar and I don't want to publish them as separate indicators): ver 1.0: style columns implementation ver 2.0: style histogram implementation ver 3.0: style line implementation This indicator calculates Volume Profile for a given range and shows it as a histogram consisting of 50 horizontal bars. It can also show Point of Control (POC), Developing POC, Value Area/VWAP StdDev High/Low as dynamically moving levels. Free accounts can't access Standard TradingView Volume Profile, hence this indicator. There are several versions: Free Pro, Free MAX SLI, Free History. This is the Free MAX SLI version. The Differences are listed below: - Free Pro: 25 levels, +Developing POC, Value Area/VWAP High/Low Levels, Above/Below Area Dimming - Free MAX SLI: 50 levels, packed to the limit, 2x SLI modes for Buy/Sell or even higher res 150 levels - Free History: auto highest/lowest, historic poc/va levels for each session Features: - High-Res Volume Profile with up to 50 levels (3 implementations) - 20-30x faster than the old Pro versions especially on lower tfs with long history - 2x SLI modes for even higher res: 150 levels with 3x vertical SLI, 50 buy/sell levels with 2x horiz SLI - Calculate Volume Profile on full history - POC, Developing POC Levels - Buy/Sell/Total volume modes - Side Cover - Value Area, VAH/VAL dynamic levels - VWAP High/Low dynamic levels with Source, Length, StdDev as params - Show/Hide all levels - Dim Non Value Area Zones - Custom Range with Highlighting - 3 Anchor points for Volume Profile - Flip Levels Horizontally - Adjustable width, offset and spacing of levels - Custom Color for POC/VA/VWAP levels and Transparency for buy/sell levels Usage: - specify max_level/min_level/spacing (required) - select range (start_bar, range length), confirm with range highlighting - select volume type: Buy/Sell/Total - select mode Value Area/VWAP to show corresponding levels - flip/select anchor point to position the buy/sell levels - use Horiz SLI mode for 50 Buy/Sell or Vertical SLI for 150 levels if needed - use POC/Developing POC/VA/VWAP High/Low as S/R levels. Usually daily values from 1-3 days back are used as levels for the current day. SLI: - use SLI modes to extend the functionality of the indicator: - Horiz Buy/Sell 2x SLI lets you view 50 Buy/Sell Levels at the same time - Vertical Max_Vol 3x SLI lets you increase the resolution to 150 levels - you need at least 2 instances of the indicator attached to the same chart for SLI to work 1) Enable Horiz SLI: - attach 2 indicator instances to the chart - make sure all instances have the same min_level/max_level/range/spacing settings - select volume type for each instance: you can have a buy/sell or buy/total or sell/total SLI. Make sure your buy volume instance is the last attached to be displayed on top of sell/total instances without overlapping. - set buy_sell_sli_mode to true for indicator instances with volume_type = buy/sell, for type total this is optional. - this basically tells the script to calculate % lengths based on total volume instead of individual buy/sell volumes and use ext offset for sell levels - Sell Offset is calculated relative to Buy Offset to stack/extend sell after buy. Buy Offset = Zero - Buy Length. Sell Offset = Buy Offset - Sell Length = Zero - Buy Length - Sell Length - there are no master/slave instances in this mode, all indicators are equal, poc/va levels are not affected and can work independently, i.e. one instance can show va levels, another - vwap. 2) Enable Vertical SLI: - attach the first instance and evaluate the full range to roughly determine where is the highest max_vol/poc level i.e. 0..20000, poc is in the bottom half (third, middle etc) or - add more instances and split the full vertical range between them, i.e. set min_level/max_level of each corresponding instance to 0..10000, 10000..20000 etc - make sure all instances have the same range/spacing settings - an instance with a subrange containing the poc level of the full range is now your master instance (bottom half). All other instances are slaves, their levels will be calculated based on the max_vol/poc of the master instance instead of local values - set show_max_vol_sli to true for the master instance. for slave instances this is optional and can be used to check if master/slave max_vol values match and slave can read the master's value. This simply plots the max_vol value - you can also attach all instances and set show_max_vol_sli to true in all of them - the instance with the largest max_vol should become the master Auto/Manual Ext Max_Vol Modes: - for auto vertical max_vol SLI mode set max_vol_sli_src in all slave instances to the max_vol of the master indicator: "VolumeProfileFree_MAX_RRB: Max Volume for Vertical SLI Mode". It can be tricky with 2+ instances - in case auto SLI mode doesn't work - assign max_vol_sli_ext in all slave instances the max_vol value of the master indicator manually and repeat on each change - manual override max_vol_sli_ext has higher priority than auto max_vol_sli_src when both values are assigned, when they are 0 and close respectively - SLI is disabled - master/slave max_vol values must match on each bar at all times to maintain proper level scale, otherwise slave's levels will look larger than they should relative to the master's levels. - Max_vol (red) is the last param in the long list of indicator outputs - the only true max_vol/poc in this SLI mode is the master's max_vol/poc. All poc/va levels in slaves will be irrelevant and are disabled automatically. Slaves can only show VWAP levels. - VA Levels of the master instance in this SLI mode are calculated based on the subrange, not the whole range. Cross check with the full range. WARNING! - auto mode max_vol_sli_src is experimental and may not work as expected - you can only assign auto mode max_vol_sli_src = max_vol once due to some bug with unhandled exception/buffer overflow in Tradingview. Seems that you can clear the value only by removing the indicator instance - sometimes you may see a "study in error state" error when attempting to set it back to close. Remove indicator/Reload chart and start from scratch - volume profile may not finish to redraw and freeze in an ugly shape after an UI parameter change when max_vol_sli_src is assigned a max_vol value. Assign it to close - VP should redraw properly, but it may not clear the assigned max_vol value - you can't seem to be able to assign a proper auto max_vol value to the 3rd slave instance - 2x Vertical SLI works and tested in both auto/manual, 3x SLI - only manual seems to work Notes: - This code is 20x-30x faster (main for cycle is removed) especially on lower tfs with long history - only 2-3 sec load/redraw time vs 30-60 sec of the old Pro versions - Instead of repeatedly calculating the total sum of volumes for the whole range on each bar, vol sums are now increased on each bar and passed to the next in the range making it a per range vs per bar calculation that reduces time dramatically - hist_base for levels still results is ugly redraw - if you don't see a volume profile check range settings: min_level/max_level and spacing, set spacing to 0 (or adjust accordingly based on the symbol's precision, i.e. 0.00001) - you can view either of Buy/Sell/Total volumes, but you can't display Buy/Sell levels at the same time using a single instance (this would 2x reduce the number of levels). Use 2 indicator instances in horiz buy/sell sli mode for that. - Volume Profile/Value Area are calculated for a given range and updated on each bar. Each level has a fixed length. Offsets control visible level parts. Side Cover hides the invisible parts. - Custom Color for POC/VA/VWAP levels - UI Style color/transparency can only change shape's color and doesn't affect textcolor, hence this additional option - Custom Width - UI Style supports only width <= 4, hence this additional option - POC is visible in both modes. In VWAP mode Developing POC becomes VWAP, VA High and Low => VWAP High and Low correspondingly to minimize the number of plot outputs - You can't change buy/sell level colors from input (only plot transparency) - this requires 2x plot outputs => 2x reduces the number of levels to fit the max 64 limit. That's why 2 additional plots are used to dim the non Value Area zones - All buy/sell volume lengths are calculated as % of a fixed base width = 100 bars (100%). You can't set show_last from input to change it - There's no such thing as buy/sell volume, there's just volume, but for the purposes of the Volume Profile method, assume: bull candle = buy volume, bear candle = sell volume P.S.

Volume Profile Free Pro (25 Levels Value Area VWAP) by RRBVolume Profile Free Pro by RagingRocketBull 2019 Version 1.0 All available Volume Profile Free Pro versions are listed below (They are very similar and I don't want to publish them as separate indicators): ver 1.0: style columns implementation ver 2.0: style histogram implementation ver 3.0: style line implementation This indicator calculates Volume Profile for a given range and shows it as a histogram consisting of 25 horizontal bars. It can also show Point of Control (POC), Developing POC, Value Area/VWAP StdDev High/Low as dynamically moving levels. Free accounts can't access Standard TradingView Volume Profile, hence this indicator. There are 3 basic methods to calculate the Value Area for a session. - original method developed by Steidlmayr (calculated around POC) - classical method using StdDev (calculated around the mean VWAP) - another method based on the mean absolute deviation (calculated around the median) POC is a high volume node and can be used as support/resistance. But when far from the day's average price it may not be as good a trend filter as the other methods. The 80% Rule: When the market opens above/below the Value Area and then returns/stays back inside for 2 consecutive 30min periods it has 80% chance of filling VA (like a gap). There are several versions: Free, Free Pro, Free MAX. This is the Free Pro version. The Differences are listed below: - Free: 30 levels, Buy/Sell/Total Volume Profile views, POC - Free Pro: 25 levels, +Developing POC, Value Area/VWAP High/Low Levels, Above/Below Area Dimming - Free MAX: 50 levels, packed to the limit Features: - Volume Profile with up to 25 levels (3 implementations) - POC, Developing POC Levels - Buy/Sell/Total/Side by Side View modes - Side Cover - Value Area, VAH/VAL dynamic levels - VWAP High/Low dynamic levels with Source, Length, StdDev as params - Show/Hide all levels - Dim Non Value Area Zones - Custom Range with Highlighting - 3 Anchor points for Volume Profile - Flip Levels Horizontally - Adjustable width, offset and spacing of levels - Custom Color for POC/VA/VWAP levels and Transparency for buy/sell levels Usage: - specify max_level/min_level for a range (required in ver 1.0/2.0, auto/optional in ver 3.0 = set to highest/lowest) - select range (start_bar, range length), confirm with range highlighting - select mode Value Area or VWAP to show corresponding levels. - flip/select anchor point to position the buy/sell levels, adjust width and spacing as needed - select Buy/Sell/Total/Side by Side view mode - use POC/Developing POC/VA/VWAP High/Low as S/R levels. Usually daily values from 1-3 days back are used as levels for the current day. - Green - buy volume of a specific price level in a range, Red - sell volume. Green + Red = Total volume of a price level in a range There's no native support for vertical histograms in Pinescript (with price axis as base) Basically, there are 4 ways to plot a series of horizontal bars stacked on top of each other: 1. plotshape style labeldown (ver 0 prototype discarded) - you can have a set of fixed width/height text labels consisting of a series of underscores and moving dynamically as levels. Level offset controls visible length. - you can move levels and scale the base width of the volume profile histogram dynamically - you can calculate the highest/lowest range values automatically. max_level/min_level inputs are optional - you can't fill the gaps between levels/adjust/extend width, height - this results in a half baked volume profile and looks ugly - fixed text level height doesn't adjust and looks bad on a log scale - fixed font width also doesn't scale and can't be properly aligned with bars when zooming 2. plot style columns + hist_base (ver 1.0) - you can plot long horizontal bars using a series of small adjacent vertical columns with level offsets controlling visible length. - you can't hide/move levels of the volume profile histogram dynamically on each bar, they must be plotted at all times regardless - you can't delete the history of a plot. - you can't scale the base width of the volume profile histogram dynamically, can't set show_last from input, must use a preset fixed width for each level - hist_base can only be a static const expression, can't be assigned highest/lowest range values automatically - you have to specify max_level/min_level manually from input - you can't control spacing between columns - there's an equalizer bar effect when you zoom in, and solid bars when you zoom out - using hist_base for levels results in ugly load/redraw times - give it 3-5 sec to finalize its shape after each UI param change - level top can be properly aligned with another level's bottom producing a clean good looking histogram - columns are properly aligned with bars automatically 3. plot style histogram + hist_base (ver 2.0) - you can plot long horizontal bars using a series of small vertical bars (horizontal histogram) instead of columns. - you can control the width of each histogram bar comprising a level (spacing/horiz density). Large enough width will cause bar overlapping and give level a "solid" look regardless of zoom - you can only set width <= 4 in UI Style - custom textbox input is provided for larger values. You can set width and plot transparency from input - this method still uses hist_base and inherits other limitations of ver 2.0 4. plot style lines (ver 3.0) - you can also plot long horizontal bars using lines with level offsets controlling visible length. - lines don't need hist_base - fast and smooth redraw times - you can calculate the highest/lowest range values automatically. max_level/min_level inputs are optional - level top can't be properly aligned with another level's bottom and have a proper spacing because line width uses its own units and doesn't scale - fixed line width of a level (vertical thickness) doesn't scale and looks bad on log (level overlapping) - you can only set width <= 4 in UI Style, a custom textbox input is provided for larger values. You can set width and plot transparency from input Notes: - hist_base for levels results in ugly load/redraw times - give it 3-5 sec to finalize its shape after each UI param change - indicator is slow on TFs with long history 10000+ bars - Volume Profile/Value Area are calculated for a given range and updated on each bar. Each level has a fixed width. Offsets control visible level parts. Side Cover hides the invisible parts. - Custom Color for POC/VA/VWAP levels - UI Style color/transparency can only change shape's color and doesn't affect textcolor, hence this additional option - Custom Widh for levels - UI Style supports only width <= 4, hence this additional option - POC is visible in both modes. In VWAP mode Developing POC becomes VWAP, VA High and Low => VWAP High and Low correspondingly to minimize the number of plot outputs - You can't change buy/sell level colors (only plot transparency) - this requires 2x plot outputs exceeding max 64 limit. That's why 2 additional plots are used to dim the non Value Area zones - Use Side by Side view to compare buy and sell volumes between each other: base width = max(total_buy_vol, total_sell_vol) - All buy/sell volume lengths are calculated as % of a fixed base width = 100 bars (100%). You can't set show_last from input - Sell Offset is calculated relative to Buy Offset to stack/extend sell on top of buy. Buy Offset = Zero - Buy Length. Sell Offset = Buy Offset - Sell Length = Zero - Buy Length - Sell Length - If you see "loop too long error" - change some values in UI and it will recalculate - no need to refresh the chart - There's no such thing as buy/sell volume, there's just volume, but for the purposes of the Volume Profile method, assume: bull candle = buy volume, bear candle = sell volume - Volume Profile Range is limited to 5000 bars for free accounts P.S.
